** In the first trailer we can see more complex character customization with each of the four spotlighted characters having accessories, face tattoos, customized melee weapons and more exagerated improvised outfits with the female soldier having a prostetic arm.

** After the relative commercial disappointment and fan backlash against ''VideoGame/StarWarsBattlefrontII2017'' for its aggressive monetization scheme, EA mandated DICE to rush the production of ''Battlefield V'' to compensate for the former's lower-than-expected sales. However, this led to the game releasing in an incomplete state, which in turn caused the game to disappoint both critically and commercially. Because of this, the game's post-launch support was run by a small crew while the rest were either moved to ''Battlefield 2044'' or kept on supporting ''Star Wars Battlefront 2'' with new content. Then in 2020, just 18 months after launch, EA ended all support for the game aside from keeping servers running.

** Firestorm Battle Royale ended up flopping thanks to DICE and EA. As the mode was locked behind a $60 purchase of the base game, it struggled to build an audience and couldn't compete with other BR games, which have gone with the more accessible free-to-play model. Not helping matters is that DICE failed to maintain Firestorm on a regular basis and the mode was released just 6 weeks after the launch of EA's other battle royale game ''VideoGame/ApexLegends'', which ended up drawing players away from Firestorm thanks to being free-to-play. Subsequently, Firestorm became unplayable for many, especially in sparsely populated player regions like Australia and New Zealand.
