it's more that the season pass model they had going was dependent on high playerbase attention. They were still putting actual effort into maps to some degree but this required a lot of Mom's credit card buying. 2042 scaled back the actual map ambition during the DLC (pic very related) and went harder on cosmetics. Expect more of this during BF6. People expecting some amazing post-launch support for 6 are going to be disappointed.
