A simplified official statement by the developers includes that Battlefield 6 is coming in an exact matter of only two weeks. On October 10, count a date in your schedule, or whatever number-two-the-list date-maker you have. The CharlieINTEL’s tweet reminded us with much fervor, and the reply section was already a mood. The comment section is a mini-Warzone already; the game isn’t even put out yet!
Some are very enthused, like KillerAwesome50, who said, “went ahead and pre-ordered it. Hell yea! I preordered that already so can’t wait.” Now, that’s the kind of spirit that should be infecting the atmosphere: In for an instance, out with the cash, and now just days left to tick off. And then simple “Can’t wait 🔥🔥🔥” by TH3MAF1A. Be simple, and be excited.
Then the others. In true Call of Duty fashion, they have chosen to flex in full force. IsaacBenjaMAGA wasted no time: “Not interested. cod is always better,” no hesitations, no explanations; just Because in their eyes, that is a truth. Then SefulWARZONE escalated with: “nobody cares about battleshit.” That hurts. Really hard.
And that whole Battlefield-Call of Duty rivalry, like the eternal flame burning, never is put out. Hence, it is pretty funny. Then F1sT seemed to detach himself somewhat: “I think all of duty fans will buy both I do not think battlefield fans will buy both”. So a little perspective, a suggestion that perhaps COD players will more probably dabble in both worlds whereas Battlefield players will more firmly embrace their own brand of chaos. Who knows?
On the other side, the practical. ‘ehempea’ made a really valid point that probably crossed a lot of minds: “Assuming it doesn’t crash the console…” Because, honestly, a big, beautiful, explosive next-gen launch title? The fears always crop up. Hopefully, DICE has that all sorted.
That’s the best thing – people are discussing all aspects of it. While ‘iRoyalCoconut’ will keep it serious about story mode, “I know Multiplayer will be fun, But I can’t wait for the Campaign,” reminds us that Battlefield will not just be online-based madness; they even published some nice single-player games in the past. Chino_x2 had a more concrete demand: “Man drop the BR day one, not interested in running into tanks and explosives round after round, so glad this will have SP.” So they’re glad about the campaign, but craving for the Battle Royale to be open on the first day.
What could topple Call of Duty? It conversed down a path with ‘trenthegent21’ and ‘Chinno_x2’ exchanging thoughts back and forth, with the conclusion that only a new Grand Theft Auto really could; but that doesn’t push through too often, so COD is good for now. ‘GaryGhee226089’ just summed up that entire thread with a crying-laughing emoji and “GTA 😭”. Pretty much.
A simple two-week countdown is Serenity. There are the guys in the hype train, the clueless bystanders, the outright haters, and analysts all in one spot. There you have the beauty of gaming culture. Everyone has had their team for a lifetime and after so many years since the beginning, they can still pick it.
Then, yeah, two weeks. October 10. Battlefield 6. This is going to be one interesting watch, inciting community reaction much more than the gameplay itself. Will it ever really live up to the hype for its fans? Could it mellow a few of those COD die-hards? Or is it just going to be one more block taken by the long-time standing squabble between two giants of the military shooter. Time will tell though; the battlefield down in the comment section is already practically in existence.
