André Garcia one of the most brainwashing anti-soviet campaigns

What Stalin did? Helped USSR become one of the most powerful countries? And yes. 227 exists, but it wasn't about killing deserters. Most of deserters that were killed, were the ones that were spreading panic on the battlefield

@Athhar Fauzi right. That what goebels wanted people to believe

HeavySandvichGuy1 mate, don't wanna annoy you or something but deserters on battlefield who were trying to retreat to base or their line were shot by their own men, it's really what i was told most of the time, but if im wrong just correct me oof

@@HeavySandvichGuy1 Dude wat? Goebbel? Order 227 exist mate, they shoot the officer who lead the man first, if they didnt make the retreating soldier to stop, they continue to mow down the entire division because Stalin is fed up with unloyal people in his rank(purge intensifies). Anyway, the order was abolished during the war. Because they dont have enough manpower, genius.

if you'll look carefully you'll notice all of those little tidbits scattered before they happen for example in the first cutscene when its pulsing through all those little clips it actually uses the audio (although slightly distorted and changed) from when the soviet is about to put a bullet in Lev.

We have proof, and even Russian chronicles, of using Human wave tactics, as well as blocking detachments that fired on Soviet Troops. Now, did it occur in Stalingrad? No, primarily because Stavka by that time had convinced Stalin to leave to war to them. But in the first months of the war, when Stalin was directly commanding the Red army, Barbarrossa was in full swing, and the NKVD was at the height of it's power, these things did occur. Especially in the first Russian counter-offensive against the Germans in 1941 that lead to the encirclement of over 300 thousand Soviet Troops. Blocking detachments where used to attempt to prevent the pocket from shrinking further, and where prevalent in the 29th Motor division. As for human wave tactics, they where used in Stalingrad, maybe not intentionally, but when you have the option of staying on the landing docks/beaches that are being shelled and bombed constantly.That or charging an MG position with the rest of the men in your boat to get out of the landing areas, you're gonna charge the MG, or get crushed by packed bodies or artillery. Without artillery, tank, or air support, you kinda only have the option of human wave esq tactics. We also know the Soviets purposely stopped a major offense during the Warsaw uprising, and refused to sent aid or material.

It isn't a myth. It did happen and russians even use these human wave tactics in Ukraine. The blocking detachments was a real thing, order 227. Wagner in Ukraine also used that blocking detachment tactic. Game depicts violency of USSR well, USSR has the most losses than any of the sides in the war, thanks to the higher up comms, "butchers", that never valued the lifes of the infantry. USSR drowned the enemy in own blood.

@@ivanonlyone7160 Order .227 is real but they don't shoot them, they just simply arrest them and transfer them to the Penal Battalion because they need every soldier The only difference between regular soldiers and penal battalion is penal battalion is treated like expandable used to clear minefields and also blocking detachment soldier are sparsely use

Smok care to share what inaccuracies?

Matthew Arenson I love how they never responded back.

I didn't get any notif of reply while I'm constantly spammed about some meaningless likes, just revisited my old posts... Among the inaccuracies enough to mention that execution for retreating was implemented quite briefly, while it's a constant mechanism in the game. Just as well as burning own civilians in their homes or executing soldiers who have rescued their officer is really excess even for Soviet standards (it'd be another thing if they were caughttelling political jokes or something, that happened with overzealous comissars). And these are story-significant things, there are lots of discrepancies about uniforms, military ranks etc. Generally, far as unsympathetic I am to the common Russian image of spotless heroic liberation, focusing the entirety of campaign on the darkest side of Eastern Front is excess and offensive. In Poland we indeed focus on that dark side (of "liberation", what happened on the Soviet territory is viewed with far greater sympathy) because it was forbidden to discuss and we were force-fed the opposite propaganda for decades (as the result of the "freedom" the Soviets brought us), just to even some balance (especially that Russia still tries to force that narrative down our throats). The fact is that Soviets just in 1944 have dealt more losses to Polish resistance than the Germans did in 5 years (due to the fact that with Germans it was " You have to catch me first", while Poles at first approached Soviets as allies, offering cooperation and thus being easily wiped out). Russians still either don't know that or utterly disregard it in their perception of liberation. Still, in a war game the focus should be on the war effort (which was indeed remarkable), not about preaching "how much *our* side is evil". Mixing real Soviet atrocites with "muhahaha I'm evil and shoot puppies for story reasons" makes it far easier for Russians to reject even the real ones as mere slander.

@@SlavicWolfPL I'm pretty sure a ton of the story was with the intent of the last cinematic's quote. Basically saying "we won, but at what cost to those who got us here?", but also putting a ton of the blame on the higher ups of the USSR, who the devs thought escalated casualties way beyond what they should have been. There were a ton of dark parts of that war, but yes, a lot of this game is either Fury esque compilation of single events to make a cohesive story, or extreme liberties with the facts. The end result is something that screams that these events were everywhere and commonly told, not the exception to the rules.

Stalin was a brutal dictator but his way of governing actually saves Russia in WW2 as well. His Iron Will holds the Red Army in place. The legendary t34 also exist thanks to Stalin as well since he was the one who allowed the project while others laugh at it. But in peace time its a different story like you said. Stalin had his ups and downs towards the Russian people.

I can see that now. They even executed the Polish fighters they had come to aid. I don't care if it's not "personal", in fact it's just makes it worse. Callous bastards.

John Clark The illiterate shit you scribbled faces many antagonisms against recorded history.

John Clark except the only people that were shot on sight were those, who spread panic among army. Among 37KK soldiers, only 150K were executed for deserting. And most of these were after trials. There was never a moment where soldiers gunned down their own retreating men. There was also never a moment where soldiers were shot for saving their own, even if they had to abbandon theie post

William Strother if you believe that, you're brainwashed

Shhhhh the Soviets where bad at everything they did they just magically won the war cuz America joined,Hollywood said so.

Try playing Brothers in Arms. Just Saying

I ALLWAYS PLAY THIS GAME AND ITS ALLWAYS SAD

Aw, indeed! If only they weren't always shot in their backs, had some ammo, and fought for their own lands, homes, and families..! Oh. Right. The game is just a piece of shit from a historic perspective.

And the allies providing them resources they badly needed

.....what

Well, relic tried their best to show as much anti-soviet propaganda as possible, and claimed it to be historically accurate, which is bullshit

its not bullshit because how many games out there in the market make the soviets these war heros, this was a nice change in terms of ww2 campaigns and tbh i wouldnt say this story isnt like a real story but there were times in the red army that were like this.

realkaytlinidk showing Soviets as cowards? Soviets killing their own for no reason? Soviets that don't want to protect their country? Soviets betraying Polish? Yup. Pro-nazi bullshit

All true mostly. Only real mistake is showing how order 227 was put into action... it's not anti soviet and never was. ostfront was brutal where the ends allways justified the means, especially if your marshal was Zhukov ;)

People from post ussr countries, who aren't affected by ru's propaganda "THE GREATEST, POWERFUL AND UNDEFEATABLE USSR" bias can confirm that. You clearly didn't get the morale of this story, which is "Despite terrible commanding and brutish attitude towards soldiers, the war still has been won, by real heroes - regular soviet soldiers". This is what message the game sends. It's even more clear in the final dialogues.

@@commanderbeepo8066 no, Anti Soviet is being Someone who is Brainwashed by their government (basically lied to) that is anti Russian like Nazi

don't forget the part where they betray

Under Lenin, the soviets. Under Stalin, I am not so sure. Only thing Stalin had better than the Tsars were an emphasis on industrialization, and better propaganda. Policy wise they were fairly similar.

Technically it is desertion, the captain would be assumed dead and they'd be given new orders. Abandoning their posts for rescuing a captain would be off-the-books stuff if it wasn't an order

The whole cutscene is pure bullshit

The book was reported from stalin and lieutenant was one of his men.

He suspected some of his officers of being supporters of Trotskyism, therefore he purged off his officers that were suspicious to him

Extreme paranoia, purges were done before WW2 as well

Stalin was a massively paranoid psychopath, who was known before the USSR came to power as a criminal muscleman. Lenin tried to give him a harmless desk job as a secretary, but when he died Stalin used it to his full advantage and seized power quickly. He didn't particularly care about how skilled his officers were, he just cared about their loyalty. As a result, those who had even a shred of doubt to their loyalties were purged before and after WWII many times, with the only time that didn't happen being during said war. It ended up biting him in the rear later on, as he had all the doctors who could save his life killed, while he had a brain tumor killing him.

During 1932 there were the first purge order by stalin to clear any officer that still "loyal" To Russian white army but actually it was to send all Russian officer who still loyal to true socialist successor Trotsky which was a inside political struggle at that time. But his paranoia still exist believing that there are people who want to coup him, so after the war stalin order a second purge due to his worry those who are "heroes" That return home after the war will Revolt against him due to his incompentence in deciding order in war room that led the german almost took the entire western russia. His paranoia were still in play and there were third purge but was cancelled due to he himself died.

war hound I guess you would of preferred an SS soldier breaking into your house and taking you away to get gassed because there’s something slightly wrong with how you look?

@@UnderFried I meant Russia loses then the allies win so no nazi no communist just free people ya putz

war hound That wouldn't change much too be honest? The Allies would of just set Russia free from German control most likely like the did with all the other conquered nations. It would of just lead to more dead Russians, which from what I've got from this video it's not the soldiers that made the USSR evil. I have to admit though it may of prevented the cold war from happening.

@@UnderFried yes but if there leaders were killed survivors would be grateful for the saving of Russia and would 50 50 here but would become a democracy country

war hound I doubt it would of become democratic, just look at Vietnam. With so many communist supporters and only a small democratic political party leading them, there would surely be a civil war. And I don't think the soviets would be grateful for the death of their leaders that protected them while they're being sent on a train to Auschwitz.

Hat43 not as much story but good gameplay wise imo

+Kyselka123 From what I could guess, he got pass the Iron Curtain and begun to write his story about the Red Army's soldiers in their battles.

What in Siberia? Being a wanted enemy of the state? It would be incredibly hard for him to get back to Moscow, let alone on the other side.

a volksgrenadier blob came and fucked him up the ass

Maybe he hijacked a boat or some shit and made it to Japan? Or maybe he just ran over the border to India, or somehow got a fake Identity and got on a train to the west coast, going over to Hungary through the border. We dunno.

He could of made his way to Finland, which is a long long long walk from Norilsk. Perhaps they want the audience to infer he somehow made it there.

John Clement Cequna Of course it is a video game, they aren't not trying to tell a real story.

Aleksa Petrovic What story are they falsifying?

Nick Werner The allies were no better either, they shot and bombed innocent civilians and then tried to pass it off as a mistake/accident.

Lol..Surelly the Panzer Elite were not the SS panzer Division..

We all have to take responsibility of our own mistakes

The Germans were actually much better than the Soviets, this is consistent with the post war memoirs of De Gaulle, Churchill, and even Stalin himself. The dirty nazi mythology is a construction of American Academia to elevate Americanism above European regimes as the US spread its ideological tendrils across the world. To be against Germany is to be pro Colonialist and pro Imperialist.

I mean that scene is heavely overdramatic but still, the soviet fought like that, not caring how many lives were paid un order to achieve victory and as IS said at the end, their victory only brought a new kind of tyrany

hollywood nowadays is very anti right
