DICE består af en række forskellige hold, og holdene bag Battlefield 1 og det kommende Battlefield V er ikke det samme. I Battlefield 1 blev der ikke introduceret kvindelige karaktermodeller, og det er noget holdet bag Battlefield V synes er en skam.
Aleksander Grøndal er producer hos DICE, og har arbejdet med begge hold på både det gamle og det nye spil.. Han har fortalt GamesRadar at han mener at det er ærgerligt at kvindelige karaktermodeller ikke var med i det gamle spil, men det er de som bekendt i Battlefield V.
"I mean, if we were getting on the bandwagon, I created Battlefield 1, and we could've 'jumped on the bandwagon' that time around. I think it's a shame we didn't [add women], because that perhaps would've been better for us. I don't think it's a bandwagon thing, I think it's about gamers wanting to express themselves in different ways."
Desuden forsvarer han inklusionen af kvinder i Battlefield V ved at sige at det handler om spiloplevelsen og tilpasningen af den.
"We decided to make a game that involved personalizing a character, creating your own company of soldiers. And we thought it was right that you could be able to be whomever you wanted to be in that context. We stand by that. I still think it's the right thing to do, and I still think it's the right thing for us as a franchise. It takes a good bit of balancing"
