What makes this even more strange is the fact that the marketing people (those that created the rather awesome trailer) knew EXACTLY what their player base wanted. The made the trailer in a way to to appeal to those players that were with the franchise for many iterations and were longing for some kind of return to the good old BF4 times.
So, they have proven with the trailer they KNOW exactly what the vast majority wants. But they still decided to deliver something completely different. You cannot sue them for false advertising I guess, but this clearly was a perfect example what constitutes such a thing.

@DuaneDibbley They tried to go hero shooter with new game modes where Hazard Zone and BR were the primary game modes. Once they realized that it would not go over well, they tried to convert to traditional BF and it failed. The maps all look 25% done with only one major area with any level of detail (Breakaway = oil rig, Hourglass = stadium, etc). The other areas of the maps could've been built in a few weeks. Why would every map, in different parts of the world have the same door knobs/access panels? Things like that. Zero attention to detail.

Yeah I agree and the release of the Exposure map has highlighted even more the weaknesses of the original 7 AOW maps.
