American campaign: "Take part in the invasion of Normandy with the most famous airborne unit in history!" British campaign: "Storm a bridge, a dam, an airfield, and lastly, a god damn battleship!" Russian campaign: "What follows is frontline combat. You are not expected to survive."

*The man with the rifle shoots! The man without the rifle follows! If the man with the rifle gets killed, the man without the rifle picks up the rifle, and shoots!*

The 1:39 part is so sickeningly chilling. Like you've just witnessed something utterly horrific, and you know you are next in line, and there is no turning back. This whole level made me so thankful that I've never had to experience anything like this in real life. Probably the highest point of the entire _Call of Duty_ franchise.

My God, they hit the Train! Pvt. Korolov: This is madness, and you tell me the front is worse? Cpl. Kulikov: Steady comrades, defeat your fear. The enemy will be easy

“THEY’RE COMMING BACK”

God the stress, fear, and tention is almost impossible to comprehend.

When hearing this The first thing that comes to mind is mosin nagant ammo

We all opened this video for 2:00

02:30 Sgt. Antonov: Take up defensive positions They must not breach our lines Through here! Keep moving forward Go! Go! Go! Keep moving until you find the spot

Hearing this really stuck with me for the longest time, you can really imagine the foreboding horror it was for the average conscript on their way to Stalingrad with little training and the bare minimum equipment. Their options being either: advance to be shot by Nazi invaders or fall back and be executed by their Commissars following Stalin's Order No. 227, I really like how this campaign was about just trying to survive the war with your fellow soldiers.

Pvt. Semashko: Thank God, they stop Cpl. Kulikov: For now, next they attack Sgt. Antonov: Wait for it comrades, hold your fire wait for it... Machine Guns? MG Gunner: Machine Guns Ready! Sgt. Antonov: *There they are fire!* They're still moving comrades fire! Pvt. Semashko: Incoming Panzer! Sgt. Antonov: Left Flank! Left Flank! Pvt. Korolov: Incoming stuka! He's coming around! Cpl. Kulikov: Oh my God, Look out! Sgt. Antonov: The Germans have broken through reinforce the left flank follow me! Cpl. Kulikov: Enemy Fire! Flamethrowers tear them out!

2:57 my childhood

Artillery... is ..... in ... position!

this works REALLY well with the river to stalingrad as well as the arrival at the front near kursk.

The first 60 seconds of this score is so eery that it would fit right at home in 'The Thing' movie. Try walking through the woods late one night, with that soundtrack playing. My God.

" That dang stuka is coming back open fire!"

Comrades! This day will be the proudest day you have ever lived! You will fight the fascist invaders with all your strength! For each and every fallen Soviet soldier, you will make them pay with 10 of theirs! There will be no mercy for defeatist, cowards, or traitors. Anyone caught deserting his post.. Will! Be! Shot! Remember great comrade Stalin's order! Not one step backwards! You will be well equipped for the battles that lie ahead. You will have food, water, weapons, and plenty of ammunition! What do you suppose the Germans have? Nothing! Their supply lines are stretched too thin! Their dash to the Volga has left them without the means to give us a proper fight. With our superior strength in numbers, and our boundless courage, victory is ours! We shall stop the fascist invaders, there, at Stalingrad!!!

One of the greatest scenes in video games. There's no heroism or glory here, just absolute fear, total terror and a threadbare hope to survive. A fitting tribute to the Battle of Battles, the supreme bloodbath...Stalingrad.

Stalingrad Kursk Trenches (United Offensive)

I still remember the Commissar's entire speech.

‘Well my friend, you have lucky or you have a small head. We’ll be safe in that building down there. Don’t worry about that commisar i take care of him.’

2:30 still makes my blood cold... Just fucking insane like the Eastern Front.

3:18 *Aiming at the last Nazi mg42 gunner* Path is clear comrades!!! We retaking red Square!

This piece of music right here is absolutely genius. Giacchino, unlike the CoD devs that had a slightly more positive portrayal, really managed to capture the fear and horror a soviet soldier must have felt, finding himself trapped involuntarily in the middle of a conflict between two awesomely powerful evils. There are still some moments in this piece where humanity - brotherhood, bravery - shine through, but are inevitably caught in a meat grinder of inhumane brainwashing ideologies. Truly music that summarizes what it's supposed to portray.

That damn stuka is going for another run OPEN FIRE! 2 commisars shot down stuka with ppsh

Comrade this day!

its just nostalgic. i used to play this as 4-5-6-7-8 years old

I hope vanguard can get us back this feelings, this emotions again.🔥🔥🇭🇳🇭🇳 2021

This is my faveroute COD game of all time I just love the graphics

Came here for 2:26 forward favorite part

Когда всем раздают винтовки, но тебе дали только 5 патронов к ним:

They used this same note choice from 2:50 to 3:50 for this same mission in Finest Hour. Only, it's MUCH better in Finest Hour. It's used for both starting Soviet Missions. The tracks are called "Not One Step Back" and "That Flag Must Fall"

COME ON COMRADE WE'RE TAKING RED SQUARE!

3:35

Самая любимая композиция, из игры

Back when CoD was good.

The Americans and the British: Does special ops missions. The Soviets: "The western kids had their fun. Now its the time for the real war, comrades."

2:49 *VICTORY OR DEATH*

Remeber great commrade Stalin's order! Not one step backwards!!!

*Comrades, check your weapons and harden your hearts we must stand our ground and drive the fascist out of the motherland!*

3:34 The germans are pulling back, come on comrades, we're retaking red square!

Both COD1 and WAW remind me of enemy at the gates. Cues taken well

Que buena batalla

No coming back!

Ready? Ok, go, go!

La gran madre Rusia sacrificó sangre de sus ángeles para liberar al mundo de los fascistas enfermos, viva Rusia hasta el infinito, héroes que dieron la vida por sus familias y las generaciones siguientes como nosotros, no hay mayor sacrificio que este todos son unos héroes.

I knew it! I knew it! The Stalingrad/red square theme is the same tune as the hymn "Thy Strong Word" I remember playing this when it first came out... the series has fallen quite far since then I am afraid. These companies use to make art, not shite-crafted money grabs o' bugs 'n' paywalls galore. I also didn't know Giachinio wrote this. He also did Medal of Honor right before this, Call of Duty's original slogan and main selling point was "No one fights alone" as this game was among the first with practical NPCs. The Russian Campaign did such an artful job of depicting the bleakness and tin foil heroism of Soviet Russia... it contrasted so well with the other two campaigns... the 101st, then the SAS, growing closer in comradery with the NPC's and the story. You feel like part of a team. A unit. It seems to matter... then you find yourself on a boat crossing the volga... more NPC's rendered and processed on screen than I think any game before I think... but the loneliness... the sheer aloneness... you never know anyone really. Sgt. Bordin, who shoots the commissary enabling your survial... you don't even know why happens to him. A dead sniper and a Mosin 91/30 with a PU scope on it is the only resolution to his story you get. Poetic.

Pvt. Korolov: Are you alright? Or shake your head out don't stop now

When civil war breaks out in your country and you are about to go to the front 💀

2:48 this hits different

Oj się grało...

Если так смотреть, если бы EA не отжали allied assault у 2015. Inc, то возможно колды на было, или она была бы совсем другой игрой

wait for them to reload, then run for it and don't stop1111111!!!!1

3:35 I don't know why but when I hear this part, I'm thinking about collapse of the Soviet Union.

I heard Pegassus Day and Red Square themes.

¡El hombre del rifle dispara! ¡El hombre sin el rifle lo sigue! Si el hombre con el rifle muere, el hombre sin el rifle lo toma y dispara.

Martin ! Get in the car

ONWARDS TO VICTORY!!! 3:31

CALL OF DUTY 1 SOUNDTRACK LEVEL 8 V2 "5 2023) 😀😀

1:37

URAA

You have food and water too

When I was a kid, I really thought soviets fought like that (and I liked the game). Now since I've learnt history a bit I can say almost all about soviets and eastern front in this game is bullshit. Sorry guys.

hello call of duty

Подходило бы и под Black ops 1.

Yes

Horror
