Why can't they make better games!
To create better games, you need a team of real gamers with knowledge of games (in a given genre or series), not just programmers and graphic designers who "supposedly" know their stuff, but instead of replicating the best of previous Battlefield installments, they're currently behaving as if they were discovering new technology and features that were already available 20 years ago. With people like that, you can't make a good game.
They have the technology and capabilities to create a good game in the series, but for some strange reason, they're unwilling to do so. Let them play Battlefield 3 or 4, and they'll see the huge difference between a good game and the technical dud Battlefield 6.
On the other hand, management is pushing to create a product resembling Call of Duty, because they know that title generates the most extra cash from microtransactions. And considering their gaming portfolio, they'd rather have only games like that, cheap to produce (with as little content as possible), and the money keeps rolling in. And then, a year from now, they'll create another game in the series...
I agree, if you want to go deeper I believe there are only a few companies out there and with that the competition among them fail. Look at Madden, no competition and that franchise I'm sorry went bye bye maybe back in 1997 or earlier. If EA owns the right to solely use the licenses of the NFL they have no reason to make the game any better. No competition very similar to Battlefield & COD.
What other company will come out with a really good shooter military wise. Six Days in Fallujah, what ever happened to that or SOCOM.
I agree they can make the game but why not make a well designed military shooter. If the gaming industry trys to use action as an addiction why not make it more realistic lol.
Anyway here to hoping and yeah I agree with ya. Mayne people will stop buying things in these games lol.
