When the COD WWII trailer looks gritty and realistic compared to the BF WWII trailer, then you know things have gone wrong. Very wrong. Such an incredible disappointment that Dice has decided to imitate Fortnite and Overwatch. The battlefield will never be the same, as they said. ---

Such an incredible disappointment that Dice has decided to imitate Fortnite and Overwatch. The battlefield will never be the same, as they said. I was thinking the same thing. Even COD:WWII trailer looked more intense, realistic and inspiring than this. And I hate COD. ---

I really hope this trailer isn’t representative of the final multiplayer experience. I’m really hoping that trailer is more or less just showcasing the Co-Op engagements that they were talking about… I was so pumped throughout the reveal and was so hyped right before the trailer started playing…Then the trailer started playing and this female cyborg is jumping around and its all one continuous shot like the avengers and cars/planes are falling on people. My smile disappeared almost instantly, turning into a blank, emotionless, stare as I finished watching the trailer. I honestly couldn’t have been more disappointed with the tone of the trailer. It was the complete opposite of what I was expecting. This absolutely did not look like a WW2 game. It looked like generic wall run fantasy shooter 2.0. I honestly couldn’t believe what I was watching. Such a far cry from what we’ve grown to expect from DICE and Battlefield, especially after the tone of BF1. I’ll admit that once the first person ‘gameplay’ portion of the trailer kicked in, I was a little excited seeing things like shooting while crawling backwards and being physically impacted by explosions. That was cool. Still, that silly, goofy fortnite tone has me seriously concerned for this game. I’ll reserve complete judgement until I see some multiplayer gameplay from EA Play, but man, that just cannot be the tone they are going for. ---

i more worried about the whole theme of the game, blue and pink everywhere, solderies with face paint. I dont know man does feel like WW2 to me, feels like some cheesy alternative universe cartoon ww2 game like BF Heroes or wait a minute maybe FOrtnite ---

I don’t know what to say really. The dislikes on the reveal clip on youtube speaks for it self. 100k likes, 58k dislikes. Thats bad. Yes, Jack and Westie have talked about the mechanics, that sound awesome. But to sit there and say that they really wanted to show WW2 thru this game and then show us a trailer that looked like a mix of Fortnite and Call of Duty ww2, that is like pissing all dedicated Battlefield fans in the face. ---

The changes I’ve read and heard about definitely make the game sound a lot more interesting than the trailer would lead anyone to believe. Truly I do not think the reveal trailer has or will do the game justice. ---

While WW2 setting was never going to be to my personal preference (I like the modern setting) and I can live with skipping another Battlefield (although this will be the third title in a row that I’ll be skipping, I still play Bf4) I hope for the sake of the franchise DICE do something, it might only be dislikes on a video but it’s quite concerning to a fan of the franchise to see that many dislikes. - Battlefield 3 Launch Trailer 4,850,020 views 2,130 dislikes ---

DICE is gunna have to do some major damage control after releasing such a downright terrible reveal trailer. After listening to Westie and JackFrags videos, I have little doubt that this game’s multiplayer component will be anything short of amazing, especially Grand Operations. I have a feeling that the goofy, silly, fortnite/Overwatch tone they went with was more or less showcasing the Co-Op ‘Combined Arms’ mode. But, that’s just wishful thinking. With games, your first impression has a major impact on your day one sales. The perception of this game right now is that it will be some silly, wall running, cyborg, fantasy shooter. Nobody wants that from a Battlefield game. Nobody. DICE/EA are going to have to work pretty hard at reversing that general perception, because I wouldn’t be surprised if that trailer lost them thousands of sales and a huge chunk of cash. I have no clue why they wouldn’t just play it safe and have a serious/gritty trailer showcasing their War Stories campaign mode, with a few instances of mutiplayer clips thrown in. Whoever was in charge of putting together that trailer is totally out of touch with the fanbase. ---

I agree about the CoD bit, I thought Battlefield games and CoD games were enemies lol I think they are partners now If its like CoD when Released Im out. Just like BF1 Played about 30 hours to try it never played again was useless gameplay… [Previous page](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/trailer-is-a-huge-let-down/105591.md?page=2) [Next page](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/trailer-is-a-huge-let-down/105591.md?page=4)
