Planetside 2 is so laughable in terms of how few improvements it gets. It's pretty cool how big the battles can get and it sucks that there aren't any other games that have close to the same scale. It's such a depressing game to play.
It just isn't cost effective I guess. It's hard to scale servers to lots of players and there maybe isn't any extra money to be made off of it. It still seems weird that there aren't many game studios investing in large scale games of any kind. There's Battlefield and battle royale games I guess, but nothing that has long running instances that you can hop in and out of other than MMOs which all suck even more than Planetside 2 (which is also considered an "MMO").
I've thought about picking up Foxhole. It's not an FPS but it's comparable in scale. Also speaking of scale we really haven't seen anything close to a successor to Supreme Commander. Even SupCom2 was inferior imo.

So many games have cool features that just get set on the back burner and never taken off.

Todd Howard has to get lucky every time. We only have to get lucky once.
yeah that stuff probably just doesn't make money or something.
