EA Didn’t Show Battlefield 7 Footage, but Fans Already Panic Over New Tech Presentation

As a seasoned Battlefield fan with years of gaming under my belt, I must admit that the recent developments surrounding Battlefield 7 have left me feeling a bit like a rollercoaster ride – exhilarating one moment, and plummeting into fear the next. The demonstration of AI level creation using assets from Battlefield 2042 was certainly an eye-opener, but it wasn’t quite the harbinger of doom some fans might have assumed.


The announcement of work on Battlefield 7 provoked a specific reaction among fans, who are afraid of another disappointment after the failure of its predecessor. Not many are willing to trust EA again, even with Vince Zampelli at the helm of the new series – and the company’s stance on the use of artificial intelligence only complicates matters. The last presentation raised even more doubts, although they aren’t entirely justified.

“This is painful to watch and listen to”

A few days past, EA representatives showcased AI application at an investor gathering in New York, where they exhibited how players could create new levels. They utilized resources and elements from the popular Battlefield 2042, yet it’s important to note that this was merely a demonstration for investors, so aspects like lighting were not entirely polished.

It’s not surprising that the fans’ response has been less than positive. Critics on Reddit are slamming the project due to its perceived lack of effort in execution, subpar visuals, and potential glitches. However, the main points of contention seem to revolve around the future of Battlefield 7. Some believe that the material provided by EA could be an early version (alpha), which has sparked concern about its development.

This incident led many people to believe, with a sense of unease, that EA DICE remained unaltered and the upcoming game might be just as disappointing as 2042.

Don’t worry, we still only have concept art

In a simpler term, people recognize that the AI issue in Battlefield 7 is only an initial demonstration, not representative of poor quality graphics like cardboard.

The displayed recording doesn’t pertain to the forthcoming game, since it wasn’t the main topic discussed during the presentation. It’s likely that Electronic Arts (EA) found it handy to utilize resources from the newest version of the series.

As a gamer, I want to clarify something important: This isn’t about promoting new games or features that you might play soon. Instead, it’s a call for investors regarding projects that EA is planning for the next five years. The tools and ideas discussed here won’t be integrated into the game we’re currently enjoying; they’re part of future ventures yet to bear fruit.

If you briefly experienced anxiety over the state of Battlefield 7, there’s no need for concern right now. So far, Electronic Arts has only shared some concept art; we’ll have to wait and see what the game looks like when it’s actually running on a screen.
