Their marketing and release windows have left a lot to be desired lately IMO.
Releasing Battlefield V after Call of Duty, and Red Dead Redemption think had them being "third wheel" a little bit for the market share in that group.
Also meant there were limited Black Friday sales on the game since it released only 3 days prior to Black Friday, and people were focusing more on the sales in that window opposed to buying BFV at full price.
Kind of similar to how they completely pooched Titanfall 2 a couple of year back by launching it a week after Battlefield 1, and a week before COD Infinite Warfare.
