I remember reading somewhere that many of Crytek's employees are from Rare. So maybe those people can return back to Rare and make good games again.

Kind of.

Many Rare employees left the company and founded Free Radical Design, a studio that after having success with their TimeSplitters games, made the awful Haze for the PS3 which was a complete failure and made them go bankrupt. And then Crytek bought them. They are the ones making the new Homefront game.

Yikes. How did people that once made such good games. now make such terrible games?! 

I don't really know what happened with Haze. The game had potential, but it seems like they always took the wrong option when making the game. And being an exclusive when the PS3 was still hard and expensive to code for, made the failure even worse.
