For Battlefield 5, a new trailer has been released. While some are totally excited, others are turning to memes for help.
A new trailer for Battlefield V has been released and for many, it is exactly what they wanted from the start. However, EA also has to deal with many memes and dislikes.
Between Love and Making Fun
A look at the ratings of the new Battlefield 5 trailer “This is Battlefield V” shows that the gaming community is divided into at least two camps.
- One side celebrates the new trailer and the gameplay footage shown – finally what fans have hoped for from a BF trailer
- Others say they are too uneducated to understand the trailer. This is a meme based on a statement from EA and runs through numerous ratings
Why the meme? When Battlefield 5 showed that women play an important role in the game, some players were outraged. They accused the developers of placing more value on political correctness than on “real history”.
Patrick Söderlund was EA’s Chief Creative Officer until a few weeks ago and explained in this role: The people with this criticism are uneducated. They cannot imagine that this scenario would be plausible.
These direct words led to further criticism. Now people respond under EA’s posts that they are too uneducated to understand it. This is also the case under the new trailer on YouTube:
The Love for the Trailer is Also Clear
If you look at the comments in the Battlefield 5 subreddit, you can see that the developers have done a lot of things right with the new trailer. It says:
- THIS is what should have been shown as a reveal
- Good video, this was long overdue. Please more of this!
- The title song is back! Sorry for being such a fanboy
- 3:12 the desert map looks extremely beautiful
Some comments on YouTube also critically yet positively express their views on the new video.
- The game looks really good, it’s a shame no one is supposed to buy it
- Apology accepted, game will be purchased
- The gameplay looks good, it should probably be tried out
More Thumbs Up on YouTube
The criticized reveal trailer was rated with many thumbs down on YouTube. It was so many that there were more negative than positive ratings.
The new trailer has fared better and is currently (as of September 5) winning with positive votes. Even though there are still many negative ratings.
