Dr DisRespect fires shots at shroud over Battalion 1944
Twitch: Dr DisRespect/shroudTwitch giant Dr Disrespect has sent a bizarre message to fellow streamer Michael ‘shroud’ Grzesiek about Bulkhead Interactive’s new FPS shooter, Battalion 1944.
The war of words between Dr DisRespect and shroud is showing no signs of slowing down, as the two continue to lock horns on social media. Dr DisRespect recently called shroud a “son of a bitch”, after Grzesiek said that Jaryd ‘summit1g’ Lazar has nothing to worry about in his upcoming Halo ‘1 v 1’ with the Doc.
Now, though, the Doc has fired more shots at shroud as he dissed Battalion 1944, in a bizarre video posted to Twitter on June 1.
Battalion 1944 is said to be bring ‘classic FPS’ games back.“It’s hard to concentrate on Toronto when we got nonsense being talked about in the online gaming community,” started the Doc. “Shroud… I’m talking to you.”
He then begins to impersonate Grzesiek, mocking what he has said about Battalion 1944: “I think Battalion 1944 is the best first person shooter game out there. It’s a great combination of Counter Strike skills and Call of Duty. It’s a great blend of both disciplines and the design community – what the fuck are we talking about.”
“It looked like it was designed in 1944 shroud!” continued Dr Disrespect. “That’s the future? That’s the future of a one hundred billion dollar industry, huh, shroud? What a fucking joke.”

Both shroud and the Doc have invested time into the game since its full release on May 23, with the former making a plea to its developers to ensure it doesn’t suffer the same stagnant phase as games such as Apex Legends.
Dr Disrespect, real name Guy Beahm, was a former level designer on Call of Duty at Sledgehammer Games, and so certainly knows a thing or two about game development.
While shroud is among the many who have been complimentary about Battalion 1944, and appears to be enjoying it, it’s clear the Doc disagrees, and is using the game as yet another reason to fire friendly shots at his fellow Twitch streamer.
