It really bothers me some of the snobbery that some Doom players have.

It's all subjective though, in reference to the games themselves and not what the publisher does. Just because you don't like CoD's gameplay does automatically make it a bad game. There's a reason that it attracts millions of people, because many of them enjoy that gameplay.

I never claimed you couldn't criticize those games, or Battlefield, or any other series like them; criticism is fine. However, what is elitism is claiming that people are bad for playing a game you don't like, that somehow they aren't playing a "real shooter".

I like both, because both styles of gameplay appeal to me for different reasons. And you know what, I'll probably end of getting a Battlefront II because it's gameplay and storymode appeal to me. If you have an issue with that, sorry.
