There\u2019s no denying that Battlefield has always played second fiddle to Call of Duty. While it is extremely popular in its own right, there seemed to always be conversations around it overtaking (or \u2018killing\u2019) CoD as the premier FPS game. That conversation died down in recent years, even with Battlefield V dropping in 2018, and with the ongoing popularity of CoD battle royale Warzone, it\u2019s hard to imagine anything overtaking it. That could be about to change with Battlefield 2042, though \u2014 according to the Doc at least, who is extremely excited. While the game has been confirmed to be multiplayer only at launch \u2014 no campaign or battle royale mode in sight \u2014 fans are still eager to get their first look at gameplay and see how it compares to previous BF titles. After watching the trailer, Dr Disrespect claimed that they\u2019re \u201cbringing showtime\u201d with the new trailer, clearly impressed by what he had seen. \u201cI have to be honest, that was a fantastic trailer man,\u201d he said. \u201cAction-packed. Kind of reminds me of the old days to a certain degree. Remember when Call of Duty was putting out these big trailers and then it was back and forth between Battlefield? I feel like we lost some of that competition the past couple of years, I don\u2019t know why\u2026 But I\u2019m liking this.\u201d Timestamp 17:03 He adds that \u201cwe gotta watch\u201d the gameplay reveal on Sunday, June 13, and clearly believes there\u2019s something huge in this Battlefield game that the last couple haven\u2019t had. We\u2019ll have to wait and see whether Battlefield 2042 really can convert Call of Duty players, but with how huge Warzone is right now, they\u2019re going to need to really pull out something special.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr Disrespect praises Battlefield 2042 for sparking CoD rivalry again Dr Disrespect\/EAThe Battlefield 2042 trailer came out on Wednesday, June 9 with much adoration from prospective fans \u2014 but Dr Disrespect is particularly excited for the next installment in the franchise, because of how it could relate also to Call of Duty.
