Does look good but not sure why they're releasing so soon after BF3. The gap between 2 and 3 was 6 years! It made it so that when I got my copy of BF3, I was so excited to play it, and still am to this date. I'd release it next year at least, to give the franchise that anticipation which is has had since 1942. Releasing it this year just seems to be a way of rolling something new out to get more cash rolling in.

More time inbetween isn't going to necessarily make a better game. 2 years in between titles is plenty of time. A lot can change in just a few years.
I'm not saying anything about the quality of the game. 2 years is plenty of time with the teams they have. I'm just saying there's not really much point in releasing it so soon. Why not concentrate not on more of the same, but more things that will improve and enhance an FPS.
Well in this case it's probably because EA does want to milk the cash cow. They saw how well BF3 did and decided that it's logical to milk it. I'm not denying that at all.
Even if it is more milkage of a series doesn't mean it's going to be a bad game. The rumors so far have been true about the game so it looks like BF4 is going to be a substantial improvement of BF3 in pretty much every way possible.Â
DICE keeps hinting at 2143 in the BF3 DLCs so I wouldn't be suprised if they are also working on that or at least have plans for something like that.
I'm sure with a change of the CEO that the direction of EA may change a bit and they may be more open to risks. BF4 development started well before the CEO of EA stepped down so they probably figured they should just finish it up first.
