There was no vision for the launch state of 2042.
Only a corporate checkbox list with the Battlefield brand placed on the title.
I loathe when artists want to flex their creative freedom while trying to reuse the past success of a brand that may not even have been of their own creation.
It is the same with how we get all these subpar reimaginings, remakes, sequels on cinema.
If they have a "vision" for something different, they should have the balls to start a new IP, just like Lars is doing right now with his new studio.

@UP_Hawxxeye The problem of BF2042 on launch, IMHO, was trying to emulate CoD. Fighting for the same market niche. BF was never like CoD.
The game is much, much better now. Unfortunately the opportunity cost was immense: it's been catching up now, plus, it seems to me now there's a skeleton crew working on 2042—I believe the core of DICE working now on the next release.
