What prevents me from insta pre-ordering the game?
DICE/ EA established that with BFV that they cannot be trusted to be honest and even when they are being honest, they can still have the wrong idea about what makes a good game.
The product we are supposed to buy is a video game, not the trailers.
PS: If they could not completely fix BFV in 2 years , why should I trust them to deliver a finished product on day 1?
Also, why pre order a DIGITAL product that is basically game codes that can be generated infinitely?
The entire point of a pre order is to get your hands on limited physical goods like when you try to get yourself a signed copy of a book

Did you play BFV over those two years?

912h 29m Play Time
I gave the game all the time it needed. There are still unaddressed issues, including one that existed since the first month of the game

Do you mean some Things like Stealth Tanks, no footsteps, loading in a Game to get queued again or planes that drop bombs in the most unrealistic Way i have ever seen?

I did not had those in mind when I wrote the other post but, yeah them too.
The one that stands out the most for me is the bomb/rocket reload bug.
When BFV launched the bombs and rockets had an instant reload. DICE decided to nerf that and give the bombs and the rockets a reload timer. This had the side effect that if you went to the station without spending all your bombs or rockets of a type, then after the next timer you would only arm the ones you did not spent earlier and after spending them there would be a new reload timer to be able to use the rest of the rockets/bombs. This is why a lot of pilots habitually dump all their rockets and bombs before reaching the station.
BF1 had a simple fix to this in the form of a "reload" button for the planes like the one for the infantry. But this was too much to ask for PatchWorkField V.

Point is, you still played it and if you played for 900+ hours you were getting something out of it even without the fixes. Agreed, there are bound to be some bumps in the road, but tbh, I pre-ordered because I know I'm going to play no-matter what. Been doing it from BF2 - it's become part of what I do. (my missus is never going to let be back into the house on a Friday night anyways)

the only reason I ended up playing so much is because I got in a friendly platoon that made me feel compelled to keep playing to keep in touch + this platoon being a good source of socialization at the evenings during the lockdowns where I was in a bad psychological state and needed someone to talk to.
If not for the platoons my playtime in BF5 would had been comparable to my playtime in hardline (which I ditched quite fast).
I still have some single player games in my library waiting to be played.
