In less than a week Battlefield 1 has become the most liked videogame trailer on YouTube ans Call of Duty Infinite Warfare has become the most disliked trailer on YouTube topping the Ghostbusters reboot which sits at 768k dislikes.

The Battlefield 1 trailer also has taken 15th place for number of views in 24 hours after its launch accumulating 15.6 million views in 24 hours. 

At the current time Call of Duty has ~1.3 million dislikes to only 268k likes and 14.5 million views, a far cry from its most viewed video the "Suprise" live action trailer for Black Ops 2 at 42.5 million views and 217k likes.

 

Meanwhile Battlefield has ~1.1 million likes with only 20k dislikes and 20.3 million views, topping it's own "Fishing in Baku" 17 minutes of BF4 campaign gameplay with 19 million views ad 266k likes to become Battlefields most watched YouTube video.

From my point of view this is insanity. In less than a week these two respective game franchises have both broken records. I was told by some EA/DICE Employees before the London Event that the Battlefield trailer would "break the internet" but I honestly didn't expect the outcome we see today.

One thing I will say though is that though I do believe the Call of Duty trailer is worse than the Battlefield trailer the Call of Duty trailer certainly doesnt deserve all the hate it is getting. As a DICE employee said to me  

Quote

"when you think about the people behind COD, actual human beings, they are putting just as much time and love into their game as we are ours. Having others shit on that is not nice." 

As Paul Tassi mentions in his article

Quote

"These numbers are not normal. Take the reveal trailers of wildly popular games like Grand Theft Auto V and Skyrim, games that have 280K and 50K likes respectively. Or even with movies, the official Marvel trailer for The Avengers has 82K likes. The Dark Knight Rises has 86K." 

We will have to see if Call of Duty will dethrone Justin Bieber's "Baby" as most disliked video at 6 million dislikes. It has only been a week and the count is already 1/6th the way there.

No wonder battlefield engineers were upset and mocking the cod trailer.....they want better competition

I get why people are hating on the CoD trailer, but I do not get why people are hyping up Battlefield 1. Do they seriously expect a really good game just because it's not a modern or future shooter?

Well WWI may actually provide an interesting setting if done right, and it seems dice may have not screwed this one like battlefront while providing a much needed change up to the series

I personally dislike people hating on a game as all games are great in their own accord.

 

People from gaming communities shouldn't dig trenches and attack each other and their tastes in games, I'm sure I'd enjoy Call of Duty's new game just as much as I'll enjoy Battlefield, and I've never played CoD in my life.
