EA's president stated the BF4 is officially announced as a upcoming project.

So close on the heels of BF3....seems odd

Anyway, after playing BF3, what do you all want to see in the next iteration?

its just confirmed they will make it.  Its not like he said hey BF4 2012, BF5 2013 like some franchises i know

to be fair, they did this with basically every Battlefield game since 1942... their timeline for a game is about 2-3 YEARS though, so I dont think that it is a bad thing.

In BF4, I want to be a ninja dual wielding DAO-12s with night vision scopes, dragon's breath rounds, and smoke bombs so I can vanish without a trace when I get into a tight spot!
