Because the people who made those great games are no longer at the studio and have moved on to their own new studio. In my opinion, the only way to truly help Battlefield at this point would be to bring those original developers back and completely get rid of the CoD developers.
Unfortunately, that’s partly true.
The original team now has its own project called Embark Studios. This team continues to create amazing games, such as *Arc Raiders* and *The Finals*.
As far as I know, Vince Zampella moved from the CoD team to EA as the new head of the BF6 development team. It’s hard to say, though, whether he also brought in any developers from the CoD team. In any case, targeting BF6 at CoD players turned out to be a big mistake. These players left the game long ago. I’m talking about the classic Battlefield here, not REDSEC.
Battlefield veterans (PC) are so neglected and penalized that they’re practically absent from the game. Now, BF6 is played by new players or dedicated console gamers. In any case, the drop to 44th place on the Steam charts and the plunge to half the player count in just a few months is a disgraceful result.
But DICE is still steadfastly holding its course like the Titanic, seeing and hearing nothing.
