BF4 Beta (a.k.a Demo) out Oct 1

BF5 next October? They really need to work on the yearly release schedule.

Well the only reason CoD gets it is 2 studios. Taking hacker dicussions out of the equation I see this still being possible with only one studio.

Tick Tock releases. On the Tick new or overhauled engine on the Tock, new base content on the same engine. So we get a different game every year and big leaps every 2.

For it to work they have to really seperate the design department from the engine and core gameplay development teams. Art can work 24/7 without any real problems. Gameplay development has to really leave the older game behind with maintainers only. The engine team will likely be full time on both engines with some consequence to that. However as it stands the engine work is shared between multiple games and they already do a little bit of this.
