It's a shame the old forums are gone because it would have the details of all the ridiculous technical issues the game suffered from. A number of which had to be fixed multiple times because they kept coming back with each update. Game was so bad they spent over 6 months on fixing the game alone. It wasn't until the Pacific update that the game got into a decent enough state and it wasn't long after that when the game was finally abandoned.
I could quite happily go into a deranged rant about the bugs of BFV. The game actually got worse as time went on.
But from the delayed point of view, BFV had it's beta 1 month before it's release before they put the release back a month. And it still released unfinished with the single player being incomplete and firestorm not existing, then with a tutorial and practice range being added after about a year and the tank body customisations used in the pre launch marketing only being introduced after 2 years. With a map being delayed for over a month due to crashes and a gadget delayed for weeks due to not working only to release broken. Plus many other issues that reoccured.
So with this game having cross play testing put back and then PS5 testing put back and still having a beta 1 month before launch I'm a bit sceptical about it's final release state.
They also haven't mentioned what 1/3rd of the game is yet and I'm not sure which of the 3 bits of the game we'll get to see in beta.
But I would like a PS5 and haven't been able to get 1 so I'm not in a position to play on launch anywho which may work in my favor though I do wanna try the beta on PS4.
I think I'd prefer it to be delayed finished and working and then to keep the base game fairly seperate server wise from future live service additions. Than be in BFV's situation.
BFV's best bit was the pacific which was released practically as a traditional map pack until they took away the option to play the server rotation =\. So I hope the silly design decisions have gone too but I'm nervous about the phrasing around battlepasses which may mean new stuff is time gated behind stupid hoops again.
Going have a little say if it needs a delay then there a good reason hope after release the game will be better for it.
Coding games is not a simple thing i know alot of game devs and a very good friend who been making games since 2003 as just left his job because of the stress levels from making top level triple A titles, so i am with EA DICE if it needs extra time, because its not always about the game.
I have my own game projects and been making something which is on youtube called if yous want to search it "oceanmania part1" make sure to add the part 1
I started this project back in 2017 and was hoping to release it 2019 its still not released ! why because of stupid little things build up to loads.
This project is built inside Trackmania on pc i know this is bit off topic but kind of not as its linked to delays and why i understand why it needs extra time.
little maybe not that little lol

@NoodlesocksI, like many banged out of BFV quite early but because of the Hardcore light approach and not for technical reasons. I genuinely can't remember major technical issues with it that are close to BF4's.
New ForumField is not the same.....
It was an odd state of affairs. BF4 started a mess and eventually got good. BFV gradually got worse and worse, technically over the first 6-8 months.

@NoodlesocksAll correct! And today we got Specialist game play....shot snippets of the hot mess.....I hope they are eating their Wheaties!
Were they using aimbots? Looked like Irish aimbotted.
About the 18 second mark.
EDIT: nm, it's just an odd cut.
