I think they should announce release dates once the game is done.

Lol, that would mean actually finishing the game instead of the "ship it now, finish it later" mentality that's been rife for years now.
This guys claiming the 20th.

Well maybe not, lots of rumours that it's going to get delayed. Not sure if into 2022, or pushed further back (December?).
DICE/EA both know that if this releases in a broken state or/and doesn't deliver, it will be the final nail in the coffin for the battlefield franchise (hence why they have got all hands on this now, which in it's own way could be a recipe for a disaster, too many cooks.....) so they would be silly to not delay it.
Personally can't say I'm that bothered at all, not as interested in fps mp these days so in no rush at all.

Wouldn't be surprised if it got pushed back and was still a mess on release, for maximum lol'ness.
Yup bfv got "delayed" by a month for all the difference that made to the game. The demo of that was in a pretty bad state and ea being ea refused to have their Christmas circle jerk ruined so slapped a paltry 1 month delay on it so it would still launch for Christmas, missing a load of features.
They're idiots, it's like they don't learn any lessons from previous games and preemptively sort them so it's not an issue in the next version. How often was grenade spam moaned about in previous games yet the next game brought back the same issue that had to be complained about before it was addressed?
Every game seems to be a blank slate and everything learned in the previous game goes out the window, then they go about making the same mistakes over and over. Not to mention the legacy bugs in frostbite that carry over time and time again. Black screening on scoping in, crosshairs not drawing in, among many other issues that have been in the engine for years now.
The engine has been a pain for many ea devs it seems.

More outlets talking about a potential delay. I get the feeling that data leak was more severe than first thought.

Nov 19th now.
It's good news, remember the last BF game to be delayed by a month and how great that turned out? Oh wait...
I remember when people used to attack me for saying precisely this :s

So this game is going to be a flop?Some people are slower to catch on
Who knows, but it's almost certain that the same legacy issues will still be in this game. They just seem to carry over game after game instead of being fixed.
