If you don't like the mechanic that a mechanic-driven game is built on, you won't like the game. Hence it's a matter of taste and personal preference, not any shortcoming on the developer's part.

Just my two cents, though.
You're correct when you say that it's the gameplay that's repetitive and hence I'm sure lots of people are enjoying the game as it is.

So EA owns DICE now...? Well after Dead Space and Mirror's Edge I'm almost ready to forgive EA for all those previous boring games.
If EA keeps this up, they'll be my heroes.
