== Criticism ==
Frostbite is notorious for having well-publicized difficulties, including its complexity. This led to numerous reports of development issues surrounding Frostbite titles; a majority of these issues came with the engine's usage at [[BioWare]], which has criticized the engine for its aforemenioned complexity, which made adapting common elements found in [[role-playing video game|role-playing game]]s to the engine rather difficult.
With EA pushing for the usage of Frostbite 3 in many of their developers' titles,<ref name="How Frostbite became a nightmare"/> refacilitating the engine for BioWare's 2014 title, ''[[Dragon Age: Inquisition]]'', proved difficult for the developer; the title's executive producer, Mark Darrah, said about the engine that "...at launch we still didn’t actually have all our tools working. We had our tools working enough." Prior to moving to Frostbite, the ''Dragon Age'' series utilized the [[Eclipse Engine]]. The move to Frostbite 3 resulted in BioWare cancelling a piece of downloadable content for ''[[Dragon Age II]]'';<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-01-13-years-later-bioware-reveals-why-dragon-age-2-expansion-exalted-march-was-canned|title=Years later, BioWare reveals why Dragon Age 2 expansion Exalted March was canned|first=Robert|last=Purchese|work=[[Eurogamer]]|date=January 13, 2017|access-date=December 16, 2022|archive-date=August 18, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180818182137/https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-01-13-years-later-bioware-reveals-why-dragon-age-2-expansion-exalted-march-was-canned|url-status=live}}</ref> that game received a divided audience reception,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://kotaku.com/5875251/not-everyone-hates-dragon-age-ii--you-know|title=Not Everyone Hates Dragon Age II, You Know|first=Kirk|last=Hamilton|work=[[Kotaku]]|date=November 1, 2012|access-date=August 18, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180818182139/https://kotaku.com/5875251/not-everyone-hates-dragon-age-ii--you-know|archive-date=December 19, 2022|url-status=live}}</ref> with BioWare aiming to improve on the next ''Dragon Age'' game.<ref name="Blood, sweat and pixels">{{Cite book|title=Blood, sweat, and pixels : the triumphant, turbulent stories behind how video games are made|last=Jason|first=Schreier|author-link=Jason Schreier|isbn=9780062651235|publisher=[[Harper (publisher)|Harper]]|edition= First|location=New York|oclc=967501381|date = September 5, 2017}}</ref> Adding new features to the engine for use in ''Inquisition'' proved difficult, as the engine was primarily used in first-person video games.<ref name="How Frostbite became a nightmare"/> However, issues initially faced by the development team were solved as BioWare and DICE started to cooperate better,<ref name="How Frostbite became a nightmare"/> and the engine allowed the ''Inquisition'' art team to develop extensive worlds in a short time. However, with the release scheduled for late 2014, the team resorted to extensive [[Crunch (video games)|crunching]].<ref name="Blood, sweat and pixels"/>
With [[Visceral Games]] being tapped to publish the ''[[Star Wars]]'' title ''[[Project Ragtag]]'', the company was occupied with the development of ''[[Battlefield Hardline]]''; after the latter game was released, ''Ragtag''{{'}}s development suffered from many setbacks, one of them being the usage of Frostbite and their difficulties adapting it to third-person shooters.<ref>{{cite web | url = https://kotaku.com/the-collapse-of-viscerals-ambitious-star-wars-game-1819916152 | title = The Collapse Of Visceral's Ambitious Star Wars Game | first = Jason | last = Schreier | date = October 27, 2017 | access-date = December 16, 2022 | work = [[Kotaku]] | archive-date = 18 April 2020 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20200418025424/https://kotaku.com/the-collapse-of-viscerals-ambitious-star-wars-game-1819916152 | url-status = live }}</ref> By 2017, ''Ragtag'' was ultimately cancelled and Visceral shuttered, with resources being shifted over to the then-impending development of DICE's ''Star Wars Battlefront II''.
In 2017, ''[[Mass Effect: Andromeda]]'' suffered from multiple issues at launch due in part to the complexities of Frostbite and a troubled development.<ref>{{cite web

== Criticism ==
Frostbite is notorious for having well-publicized difficulties, including its complexity. This led to numerous reports of development issues surrounding Frostbite titles; a majority of these issues came with the engine's usage at [[BioWare]], which has criticized the engine for its aforemenioned complexity, which made adapting common elements found in [[role-playing video game|role-playing game]]s to the engine rather difficult.
With EA pushing for the usage of Frostbite 3 in many of their developers' titles,<ref name="How Frostbite became a nightmare"/> refacilitating the engine for BioWare's 2014 title, ''[[Dragon Age: Inquisition]]'', proved difficult for the developer; the title's executive producer, Mark Darrah, said about the engine that "...at launch we still didn’t actually have all our tools working. We had our tools working enough." Prior to moving to Frostbite, the ''Dragon Age'' series utilized the [[Eclipse Engine]]. The move to Frostbite 3 resulted in BioWare cancelling a piece of downloadable content for ''[[Dragon Age II]]'';<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-01-13-years-later-bioware-reveals-why-dragon-age-2-expansion-exalted-march-was-canned|title=Years later, BioWare reveals why Dragon Age 2 expansion Exalted March was canned|first=Robert|last=Purchese|work=[[Eurogamer]]|date=January 13, 2017|access-date=December 16, 2022|archive-date=August 18, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180818182137/https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-01-13-years-later-bioware-reveals-why-dragon-age-2-expansion-exalted-march-was-canned|url-status=live}}</ref> that game received a divided audience reception,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://kotaku.com/5875251/not-everyone-hates-dragon-age-ii--you-know|title=Not Everyone Hates Dragon Age II, You Know|first=Kirk|last=Hamilton|work=[[Kotaku]]|date=November 1, 2012|access-date=August 18, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180818182139/https://kotaku.com/5875251/not-everyone-hates-dragon-age-ii--you-know|archive-date=December 19, 2022|url-status=live}}</ref> with BioWare aiming to improve on the next ''Dragon Age'' game.<ref name="Blood, sweat and pixels">{{Cite book|title=Blood, sweat, and pixels : the triumphant, turbulent stories behind how video games are made|last=Jason|first=Schreier|author-link=Jason Schreier|isbn=9780062651235|publisher=[[Harper (publisher)|Harper]]|edition= First|location=New York|oclc=967501381|date = September 5, 2017}}</ref> Adding new features to the engine for use in ''Inquisition'' proved difficult, as the engine was primarily used in first-person video games.<ref name="How Frostbite became a nightmare"/> However, issues initially faced by the development team were solved as BioWare and DICE started to cooperate better,<ref name="How Frostbite became a nightmare"/> and the engine allowed the ''Inquisition'' art team to develop extensive worlds in a short time.

With [[Visceral Games]] being tapped to publish the ''[[Star Wars]]'' title ''[[Project Ragtag]]'', the company was occupied with the development of ''[[Battlefield Hardline]]''; after the latter game was released, ''Ragtag''{{'}}s development suffered from many setbacks, one of them being the usage of Frostbite and their difficulties adapting it to third-person shooters.<ref>{{cite web | url = https://kotaku.com/the-collapse-of-viscerals-ambitious-star-wars-game-1819916152 | title = The Collapse Of Visceral's Ambitious Star Wars Game | first = Jason | last = Schreier | date = October 27, 2017 | access-date = December 16, 2022 | work = [[Kotaku]] | archive-date = 18 April 2020 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20200418025424/https://kotaku.com/the-collapse-of-viscerals-ambitious-star-wars-game-1819916152 | url-status = live }}</ref> By 2017, ''Ragtag'' was ultimately cancelled and Visceral shuttered, with resources being shifted over to the then-impending development of DICE's ''Star Wars Battlefront II''.
