[@FutaCatto2]

Nope. It made no sense at all. Sounds like a bunch of MCU fans made up a "It's the end of the world" story into a futuristic setting which doesn't make sense. Battlefield 3 had the last good Campaign that takes place during the war in Iraq. It had a few controversial scenes that would trigger modern EA/DICE staff. Follow up with Medal of Honor 2010 showcasing Navy Seals. We no longer get these Campaigns because EA/DICE hates war veterans.

That's what you get when your higher-ups are run by corporate investors instead of actual gamer. The former only see what brings money and try to apply it in their game no matter how nonsensical it is, the latter truly knows what formula that makes the game great and fun to play Imagine Caterpillar CEO forcing his company to make luxurious supercars despite being specialized in construction vehicles, just because he saw supercar market bringing a lot of money, and you get a close approximation on how EA run their business in a nutshell

[@philippeichert]

But it doesn't bring money. That's the tragedy here. If it had brought them more profit, that would be digestible. Battlefield was ruined due to greedy, selfish dudes sucking it dry. But no, no it was simply stupid on all levels and no one gained anything in the process.

I was disappointed to say the least, comparing late stage battlefield 3 to day 1 release of 4 was an absolute joke. Now, 4 has become much better but my point is 4 released WAY too early, the same with 1. While both those games turned out to be great it was a pattern, the beginning of the end.

number one rule of game development: never skip more than 20 games in a series

[@crzykd1305]

I've been a game dev for 5 years, not so long, but I'm getting a feel for how things work, and there is this wonderful problem in the games industry, particularly in a big studio. Revolving doors. When your team is working at its best, you know who to talk to to get information on a system you are working with, and you can organize your efforts so no one is butting heads. An example, if I want to make a statistics scoreboard, I can ask 2 people who know the UI and game rules systems well "do we have these stats, do we have good room for this scoreboard?", and get working on it as soon as I have the answer. If I know the team well (typically if I've been there a couple years), then this is a 20 minute task, however if I'm new and need to find out who the right people are, this can take days of back and forth between teams and leads. This is to say nothing of actually learning the code base yourself, which can turn 1 day fixes into week or multi-week long investigations into features written by long lost staff. The idea publishers have is if they fill the studio with graduates and a couple of seniors to keep track of them, that they will have the creative output of a veteran development team. This just isn't the case, a team works so much more effectively if they've worked together before, and their knowledge of your codebase and team culture are invaluable in assuring an effective use of their time and resources. The biggest nightmare for a development studio, should be staff turnover, because dropping team cohesion especially early in a project can completely destroy the frameworks your projects are standing on, and your capability to fix it.

[@IIBLaCKBeaRDII]

Basically, nobody from BF2:MC on ps2 is around anymore creating the game. Yah, I gave up on getting the Battlefield we've wanted since 2007. It's over. Stuck on BF4 now because the old games aren't playable and the new ones SUCK. Ready to make a new BF? I am!

This is a very informative comment

[@danielolmos5484]

Very good insight, and this is also applicable to any development work even outside of games

Who would of thought that losing your old employees, the only ones who understood how to use Frostbite and having over 50% of them being new hires who have no idea how it works was a bad idea. The amount of times I've seen studios suffer because they lose their old talents is staggering.

It really puts things into perspective.

They make the decisions, then they tell us to do this. And so we do it. I've had projects where I tell myself, holy fuck this is gonna be a disaster, why would the execs decide on this? Then I remember, those that control us developers, they have business degrees, not computer science/game design backgrounds... They always think of profit instead of making the actual games look and feel good. This is the truth behind big companies. It's always these dumb morons at the top who are so out of touch of the consumer's wants, because they are... So high in their heads, and in their position, that they can't see what's below. And so this is what happens when dumb corporates think of developers as 'just there to build' as if it was the modern equivalent of construction workers. And so they leave. We leave. Then the dumb corpos do a pikachu face, and gets surprised when they realize they're gonna spend time and money to hire new people, and spend even more time training them to use the tools that we previous devs have built.
