Battlefield Twitter account DM-ing pieces of a strange message to influencers

- Start date

Seeing that it could be called Battlefield 2042 which is so dumb and I love it.
Also a late October release date.

The year in the date being x'd out is very suspicious for sure, wouldn't mind a 2042.
A 21 year jump into the future would be interesting. Not exactly spaceships but more enhanced tech.

Would fit with the leaks that have shown stuff that is in the prototype phase now.
This, can't stand "influencers".
On topic it seems like maybe it's robots or AI
If it is near future I hope they keep it boots on the ground and there's no crazy mobility stuff like wall running or crazy, enhanced jumping/dashing or anything like that. Don't want them to do to BF what CoD did with Advanced Warfare a few years back.
Keep it grounded and "realistic."

I agree , i am a huge Battlefield fan and played all of them with hundreed of hours spent in MP but this is getting out of control.
Just show us the game and stop all of this. Does this stuff really work for some people? Do they get hyped? For me personally this is all getting anoying.
The funny thing will be if this game doesn't even come out this year and has a release date of 2022...
There better be gameplay shown next week. That's all I'll say.
So sick of "reveals" just being a CG trailer.

The leaks show dog robots (which are real but not ready for use yet)
Every Battlefield reveal trailer is CG, we get gameplay later. What else do you expect?
I've totally missed the leaks, didn't realize there was salad stuff out there beyond some of the map locations
Yep, I don't even click on BF news because I know that it is going to be a meaningless teaser.
Back then they dropped the fucking BF3 MP trailer, gaming community collectively shit itself from excitement and that was it. There was no need for stupid crap like that.
It was meaningful. Everyone expected BF3 after BC2 and they confirmed it with a small teaser video, after that came the SP trailer, which was awesome. Then brought it home with the MP trailer.
This makes no sense and it is stupid as fuck.
Battlefield 3 had a lot of short teaser videos before the first trailer, which worked quiet well to hype everyone up.

Marketing has changed a lot since BC2 and BF3 days, this is how it's done now.
I just remember the infamous no gameplay reveal. But even that worked since we really weren't sure if we are going to get a BF2 successor. BC2 nostalgia is very heavy now but back then people wanted a traditional BF game with the bells and whistles from BC2.
Now we already know it's going to be modern/close future. BF is a mature franchise now. Back then things were different.
We also have games to fill the void. There is Squad, which is the closest IMO. BF has things to prove at this point after previous meh entries. It feels like EA thinks everyone is shitting bricks that a mainline BF is on its way. This is simply not true anymore.
