European game makers clash with American managers all the time. Different studios try to build one massive game but nobody agrees on anything. The single player story mode falls behind schedule constantly. Ridgeline Games had to hire workers from scratch and missed every deadline.

Teams struggle to estimate when their work will be done. Some parts of Battlefield 6 reach alpha status months after others do. Workers worry about releasing another broken game like Battlefield 2042. That disaster needed a huge patch on day one to fix basic problems.
EA plans to announce Battlefield 6 this summer despite all the chaos. The company hopes to compete with Call of Duty and Fortnite. Market research shows the 100 million player target makes no sense. Stressed developers expect more cuts and delays before anyone can play the finished game.
