Star Wars Squadrons preload date keeps changing

On two seperate occasions, star wars squadrons has changed the preload date in two weeks. Why even post them if they know they are not going to be valid?

Hello there,

so, Origin tells me I can play Squadrons from midnight of October 2 in my timezone. Is that correct? Seems weird not to have a global release time, so I wonder if it's a mistake, but I would love to play as soon as I can.

Thanks.
