The two-time champ Dr Disrespect has just made a tweet that conveys the whole current situation of Battlefield 6 using very few words, more or less, Violence, Speed, and Chaos. Apparently, in big capital letters. The battlefield is claimed and he is letting everyone know about the coming battle royale mode that is getting yaya yayayay as a welcome. A typical Doc move, but the replies…oh the replies have completely gone off the rail to a different type of chaos.
To begin with, Battlefield 6 has become the king of the shooter genre and gamers are experiencing delightful madness of pure chaos and some players are really enjoying it. The tweet by the two-time champion himself indicates the very core elements of the game at present. It is pure chaos and the game that has users still playing it due to the excitement. Mentioning of the BR mode, the battle royale, has sparked everyone’s interest. When a person like Dr Disrespect comes and says he cannot wait, you can be sure that the hype train is already at top speed.
But then, you just scroll down a bit. And the comments section is a complete war zone, and no, not the Call of Duty type. It soon transforms into… well, let’s just say that people have good memories. The first comment from a user called Joe, @Kaputtesten, immediately refers back to the old, public Dr Disrespect controversies that took place years ago. You know the ones. The whole debacle that resulted in his exile from Twitch. He is being quite sarcastic, talking about depressed losers and cheating. It is a recurring pattern in the replies, and numerous users like @ChadWorp and @Yiyerzz are coming up with similar comments, one even simply labeling him a “pedo.” The excitement around the game is in sharp contrast to the reminder that the internet never forgets. @ChadWorp even shares a meme saying “The Internet nevers forgets….till next time bud.” The typo adds to the realism, as if someone were typing really fast and furiously.
One positive thing that has emerged from this mess is that the hardcore Battlefield supporters are giving their cheers. @playoffthegrid comments, “The Grid salutes the violence 😤,” which is honestly quite a nice remark. @tfullgaming_ is with the Doc, claiming “The BR is going to be sick.” The game of the Battlefield franchise with a battle royale mode is what they might do and this anticipation is palpable. The users are fed up with the same old stuff, and the vastness of Battlefield maps could create a BR experience that would be absolutely insane. @TylerMorto39107 is even more enthusiastic saying, “This game just took a fat shit on @CallofDuty I love Battlefield 6!” So the battle between the two giants is still very much alive, just as one might expect.
There are also the gameplay-specific comments that give you insights into the prevailing meta. @ProfPressure interrogates another user, “have you considered putting C4’s on your drone?” which sounds like some state-of-the-art tactical explosion. And @stealer82 declares that the tank is a “wrecking ball” since it is the only thing that can accomplish something. These are the petty things that the players are already figuring out creative ways to promote mayhem.
But hold on, what was I talking about? Oh right, the chaos. It is not only in the game. The comment section is a perfect reflection. You have @freecashcom asking a very relevant question “What are you looking forward to the most in BR? 👀” next to someone who is pondering if the Doc’s whole audience is underage. It is a crazy combination of hype, trolling, and sincere debate about the game’s future. Some, including @alefourty, are even questioning the Doc’s own pleasure, implying that he got bored of BF6 fast and only the sniping is doing good. It is a messy, uncut view of the community’s reaction.
The crucial takeaway from all this is that Battlefield 6 is very much a topic of discussion. In either a good or a bad way. The shooting is claimed to be the promise land of high-octane, large-scale battles. And just the BR mention alone raised the bar of expectations to the maximum. The core game has created a lot of buzz even with the background noise and the unavoidable internet drama that some people bring about.
Gamers are looking forward to the coming of the new king in the shooter arena and if the BR mode gets even half of the hype, Call of Duty might just have a real rival at last. The arena is indeed taken over and we are all just eager to see what happens when the BR opens. It is going to be a spectacle. PlayStation and Xbox gamers are both excited for what’s coming next.
