The same goes for wow, it has been toned down significantly since vanilla and bc and has become very casual. That's activision for you, they make sure you buy the games and get your cheap thrills and leave it so you stay hooked.
Battlefield on the other hand, much like the SOCOM series are not MEANT to reward you with instant gratification. They are meant to drive the players in the servers to work together and win the game......hence them being tactical team based shooters. The reward is working with others, or playing in clan tournaments, etc etc. The only instant gratification in battlefield 3 comes when you knife a chickenshit sniper in the back.
