@Penmous Now it's official confirmed, Battlefield 2042 launch will be delayed!
It'll now release worldwide on November 19th.
For early access on November 12th.

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
I don't think so.
Starting to get concerned, if I’m being honest. Not only because of the lack of beta information, but just general lack of information. No uncut gameplay (NDA leaks don’t count), no information yet on Hazard Mode, etc.
Just concerned at this point. Who knows, they could very well be on target with no issues, and maybe they’re just waiting for the right time to release these things so the hype builds and crescendos on release.

I personally hope not because I've been ready to roll this since it was announced.
Saying that, IF there were 'major issues', then I'll live if they push back the release date a little.
Right...they said the same thing about BF5. "We just need an extra month to fine tune and polish it". LMAO
Something's amiss I fear
