Motiongate Dubai won't be fully ready on October 31st, as the current price table for the day tickets reveal:
"While a significant portion of the MOTIONGATE™ Dubai will premiere on 31st October, enhancements of some of the attractions will be ongoing for a couple of months to create the very best experience for guests. During this period a “Discovery” price of AED 240 for adults and AED 210 for children and seniors will be offered."
The regular price of Motiongate per day will be AED330, Bollywood will be AED285 and Legoland 295 (without water park, which will be 240). Multi-Day tickets will be available, too. However, on these, there doesn't seem to be a Discovery price so it might be cheaper to buy single tickets at first.

Source? As far as I know from the main contractor the civil work on Legoland is on schedule and ready to finish before soft opening date.
The Hunger Games attractions won't be ready until few months after the opening of Motiongate park. The Lego Waterpark probably opens later also.
Looks like October 31st is the confirmed opening date but some work may be "ongoing"

“As at the end of June, 93 per cent overall infrastructure construction was completed, with 84 per cent overall ride system and 80 per cent overall facilities construction complete. Show systems were 60 per cent completed, and we are within our targets for our opening in October this year.”
