Also, Green Light Teams were a real thing during the Cold War. The reason Eisenhower kept it classified was because the last thing he wanted was to have his NATO allies condemn his actions. Once it was declassified at the end of the Cold War, Germany demanded all US nuclear weapons in Germany be removed at once. Goes to show that when you are at war, you'll some questionable things. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Light_Teams

I can only sense that they would probably softly shoehorn the whole of Operation Eagle Claw into Carter's decision to send Adler, Mason and Woods after some of the men involved with the Ayatollah Coup and try to get vengeance for the kidnapping of US citizens... All just prior to Reagan coming into office, the US winning the Olympics against the Soviet Union and the subsequent release of said political prisoners in Iran back to the US after quite some time in captivity. Which would fit perfectly, as Carter did grow a pair (if even a little bit) to get aggressive with foreign relations because his soft demeanor and attitude was getting him nowhere in global affairs. Especially after inheriting the Johnston-Nixon-Ford Vietnam disaster and the subsequent disastrous withdrawal from Saigon in 75. America was really in no position to be determining any kind of foreign issues. The greater issue was that of the Yom Kippur War (73- Israel vs Syria, Iraq, Jordan and Egypt) which almost thrusted the Soviet Union and the United States into war themselves (as both had vested geopolitical interests in that immediate region), where cool heads and Israel's willingness to come to the table for peace talks, after obliterating and pasting the Arab Alliance, even going so far as to give the Jordanians back ownership of the Temple Mount, which is considered the holiest place for both Jew and Muslim, in the city of Jerusalem. To say the least, Carter had to play his cards right to keep the US just barely in the game, and Reagan was able to capitalize on the momentary laxity in Carter's more peaceful global relations for a more aggressive, yet precise, means of ensuring US dominance in the Cold War and the Arms Race. Especially seeing Afghanistan as an opportunity to ruin the Soviet Union's supposed military prowess through funding the insurgency there. Which would subsequently bite the US in the ass by leaving it at the Soviet-Afghan War's end, which left an immense power vacuum between the Taliban (backed by Al Qaeda and Usama bin Laden) and the Northern Alliance, which was a collection of various Afghan tribes and leaders fighting for their very lives.

yesss this is something i realised straight away yet no one was talking about. it bugs me to this day.

Noice

Is it true that it always snows there

The portrayal of Germany in this game made me understand how it must be like for other people to have their country and culture grossly misrepresented.

@@sebomag1801 how is Germany portrayed in the game ?

@@alexk8669 inaccurate. But often minor details someone who isn’t German wouldn’t notice. But that could easily be avoided by having someone with cultural knowledge of the place have a second look at it in development. I don’t mind creative freedom taken to forward the plot or the gameplay, but what’s off in this game is just due to sloppy research (see my other comment under this video).

Yes brother

Yes

Yes comrade

Да, товарищ.

He didn't sin the onion line either. Dartigan is very immoral.

"im a goddamn onion mason" Frank "onion" woods

Sorry guys, I am italian 🇮🇹 🤣 and I couldn't get the joke. Mason Is basically telling Frank ti be quiet and he responds I'M A GODDAM ONION ?!?! WHY 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 can someone explain me the joke ? Thanks Brothers !!!

@@Norseman991 he means that he is quite like an onion , ONION IS A VEGITIBLE , IT CANT TALK😤😂

I'm a god damn onion Mason

@@thegoldenbro78 ha jokes on you! im an red onion..... please help me

You kill all your teammates this would mean half of BO2 would have never happened

The bad ending was surprisingly the good ending

@@Holyfuckingshitgivemeahandle black ops 2 didn’t happen in this new universe. It’s a combination of infinity wars and treyarch now which is why zakhaev was there in the story. The modern warfare reboot and the black ops reboot show that now both companies are working together to forge a new timeline together, no longer separate entities. They’ll make their own games of course, but now they are cocreating the reality of their stories together.

​@@TheGreyShaman technically Black Ops 2 can fit into both timelines. The old trilogy ended around 2016 while the reboot is around 2019-2021. Kinda huge technology jump in just about 4-5 years, but still fits technically if they're willing to say fuck logic. I hope it's a new universe though, because I hated this campaign and a different company made it this time. That way I can ignore it fully and say I prefer the original Black Ops timeline.

@@turdnuggz69 I’m pretty sure it’s a new one, I for one loved the bad guy play through, surprisingly the bad ending was the good ending in this scenario Edit: just realized this was in that comment thread where I already said the bad ending was the good ending

I hate that ending. But being presumably killed by Adler isn't good either.

@@porchofgeese_crockpot It would’ve been better if you could just kill Adler and park, and let mason and woods live or they escape.

@@MurderCount definitely. Since this is a prequel to Black Ops II, it would actually be more logical.

@@porchofgeese_crockpot The bombs would still go off though. Also Park canonically survives

I find the ending stupid, just mason and woods have survived way worse odds and just because bell (you) can kill them all it’s an ending? Fuck that, there’s a whole ass team of guys that literally do not die in any way shape or form in the campaign where they should have died hundreds of times (kgb infiltration and Soviet base run) and they die on an ambush that only changes because you take part in it :/

And a cesarean scar that becomes a snake.

And an electric bisexual Colonel and a Major that meowed to summon his men.

@@ameliadavis1711 And a femme fetale who can knock a guy out by back flipping a motorbike off the guy's chin and stick the landing.

And an old guy who only eat sunlight for survival

And a weird floaty psychic guy who was DEAD ALL ALONG!

Og Woods would never say something that dumb.

@@Gruntvc that's what his original voice actor said

My question is what does that even mean?

@@matthewslates dude dont get me wrong im high as fuck and i was when i was playin' that mission and even i stopped and squinted and asked my buddy "did one of the baddest motherfuckers in gaming history just say somethign this stupid ??"

@@GrizzTheShaman The Scene in BO1 Where he says:"You cant Kill me" and than Putting a Revolver to his Head Just Defianse How Serious of a Character truly he is

Didn’t the UK built some nukes?

The nukes are still in army bases today

Hell, we placed nukes under OURSELVES. Low yield, and unlikely to do any major damage, but yeah, they exist.

Wait my whole country had american bases and i think some nukes and the bases are still there

The Netherlands still has US nukes in a military base

That's what I was thinking, that shit must've been nuclear powered to be that quick

The OG Black ops has no sins

@@razer_darkness1452 Except it's poorly optimized cutscenes, overuse of recycled sounds, loose use of guns and equipment that were made years after the set time, predictable story; and so much more that I could list without even going back to find copious amounts of flaws alongside these.

GamingSins already sinned them. Wait...

But no one ever sinned cod waw

@@razer_darkness1452 I mean it has some but the campaign is one of the best in the entire franchise.

Yes but everything they do after brainwashing him would have failed instantly, that's like brainwashing Hitler then sending him back to Germany

idk, i got really sick of mason being obviously Australian in the first one

While appearantly the VA for Mason last time was busy, i still don't get why they didn't get Woods' actor

Yeah, these new guys have nothing on Sam Worthington and James Burns's performances, respectively. Their dynamic really helped to elevate the "real" Black Ops from 2010.

35 not 26

Aber warum

Weil in jedem Satz in den Deutschland vorkommt, auch das Wort "Wurst", oder ähnliches vorkommen muss.

The mp5 was definitely not used by Russians but there was m1911 copies made by the commies in limited numbers. However, I doubt they saw much use.

Yeah the majority of Russian weapons in 1981 were Ak-74 and Akm variants and Makarovs. Was it so hard to put those in the game? They're literally the most common guns in the world from that era

Thats true, but how would they know kravchenko was there, better yet alive still?

Yeah Bell & Adler both didn’t see Kravchenko genius

And the nb people don't even play COD

Exactly what the hell even is non binary, a queer?

They didn’t need him. After stopping the nukes, (Only in good ending) America kinda wins. Bell was only used to stop the nukes.

Same thing would've happened to Mason in BO1 if Nova 6 worked and he survived. After they finish the mission they're a loose end, a witness for war crimes.

It's because bell had a lot of Adler's memories in his/her brain (like the vietnam mission) and probably knew a lot of things that he/she wasnt supposed to know which is why adler killed bell

Well if any of you payed attention to the end, all they did was destroy the station where he would broadcast from. The nukes still exist and he still had the codes. Couldn’t he have another station built to broadcast from?

I cant drink him at 2a.m.,not its clean and pure anyway.(not an adult joke.but still a joke.)

Goddamn catch a predator reference. Props.

@@Whasteen please sir, I really drove all this way for no reason?

Why don’t you have a seat?

Haha TCAP reference.

As someone who lived through the time period in question, that happened a LOT. So it's historically accurate...but still a sin. (ding)

This is in my top 3 pet peeves. It's REALLY not that hard to say nuclear correctly.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one that bothered lol

No it’s not a sin it’s characterisation

THANK YOU.

LOL... yeah. Best thing is that there where real plans to nuke major cities to stop the advance of the Russians. But everyone knew about that. West Germany was extremely prepared for a war. You where able to remove every street sign and every bridge was rigged to blow.

If you think this campaign is boring & generic then you clearly didn’t play through all of it completely Many CoD fans consider this a top 5 campaign

I dare him to try playing WAW on Veteran or Hardened. Nade spam...

I comment "sin cod waw" and get 0 likes. Someone else does it: 18 likes. FML

Imagine complaining over likes when it's not even that many

Heck, why stop there? Call of Duty 3 on OG X-box. I played the shit out of that one.

@@CtrlCreo it happens every time: I say clever things and nobody say I'm clever, then someone else says the same thing and everyone is like "OMG YOU'RE A GENIUS!". I'm the most underrated man in the world: if I ruled it, we would all live in Utopia. But people don't know me, and they don't know what they're missing! But yeah this one comments thing wasn't really the worst

Unless your one of those people which think that game is a untouchable masterpiece than hell yeah I'm excited

@@Lonewolf360gaming truuuue, there are gonna be tons of people who hate on the video. Just like the people who hated on Dartigan for the Red Dead 2 video.

@@MrGroudon unfortunately

I mean it's probably gonna take a long time just to research it alone, so we're likely gonna get Little Hope *_anyway._*

@@Jamushu sweeeet

Let's be fair, we don't watch Dartigan for his accuracy.

That wouldn’t matter if something inside the KGB triggered Bell’s memory and sabotaged the whole mission

Not Canon unfortunately, i personally also believe it's the better ending

@@Brian-tn4cd i mean who wouldn't want to commit genocide than blame the Americans?

@@richardendresz161 yeah exactly, also it makes no fucking sense that you discover you've been brainwashed and you help the people who messed you up, they did nothing to redeem themselves in my eyes

@@Brian-tn4cd For me, it was more of a 'fuck y'all, but there are bigger fish to fry.'

@@TheDapperDragon it makes sense because a soviet soldier who believes in global communism would do the bad ending. But even if I was brainwashed and everything, I would never destroy Europe

Amazing

This campaign, while not bad, is definitely not as good as Black Ops 1 or 2. It steals a lot from both, but just isn't as good. Game was definitely rushed and should've been delayed to 2021.

Honestly I think either nostalgia or you being young would make you think it was *_"New"_* because it wasn't. About the only good thing about being brainwashed this time is the Juxtaposition. Finding out you were never the good guy at all, having the choice to not only refuse to believe everything you've been told but to betray your captors (something that should've been offered to Mason, since CIA brainwashing actually severely fucks with your head. The only thing BO1 & 2 got right), just of course switching the roles. Since now **YOU'RE** the Russian. I don't even know what you mean by running dry, since we've only had 2 CoD's do this and it's not a common plot in other games.

@@Jamushu Its nostalgia that got to me, since the BO1 twist got me so well, and I remember that for a while.

@@Gruntvc True, but you know COD, they have to release a new COD every year no matter what

Which would be a much better option tbh. Have the text in og language and add internal narration, maybe even a comment or two from the MC.

@@lucasmillerthelewderofloli9327 i kind of wish it did an effect i saw in another game (can't remember name) where you see the text first in the OG language and then the text changes to the language your game is set to

@@Brian-tn4cd It does that in Cyberpunk. It's pretty cool.

@@revdylan funnily enough I replayed the Campaign for CW recently, and is does do the translating effect thing on like optional files i missed the first time around

Ikr I'm tried of all this special ops bs. Just let us play as regular soldiers

The cutscenes lag a bit anytime Bell has something to say. They make you wait a few minutes before your dialogue choices pop up.

They could've very well made it a bilingual bonus instead of a cop out like that.

Acceptable....except that when Bell prints the files, they're in English. Woods even reads them. And the Soviets have no reason to have a English printer in a secret training facility in the middle of Nowhere, Ukraine, Soviet Union.

@@templarwyvern9236 Then again, in BO1, Woods did talk to some Soviet soldiers in Russian while disguised.

@@templarwyvern9236 woods knows Russian

Cringe

If you have a penis, you are a man, if you have a vagina, you are a woman. There is no such thing as “non binary.” Sure, if you feel more comfortable calling yourself non binary, that’s fine, but when you force other people to refer to you as whatever you feel more comfortable with rather than your biological sex is just an inconvenience.

1 million sins for not bringing any of the original voice vast back for our boys: Mason, Woods, and Hudson. Glad Reznov wasn't here to see this...

@@Gruntvc I understand Sam Worthington not coming back due to James Cameron devoting to making Avatar sequels for the rest of his life, but I don’t see any excuse for James’ replacement.

I personally think bell died the second alder fired. It cuts right to black, which, as terrifying as it could be, may realistically happen

That is six words

@@adamazmi6340 stil

Not gonna lie, its cool as hell to see people in the comments that are privy to history like this

To add to this, I don't really think the Soviet Union dissolution can be blamed on Gorbachov, either. He was in charge of what amounts to a failed state suffering large-scale socio-economic collapse. While not from the USSR proper, I lived in the former Soviet Block at the time, and I know first-hand just what that looked like. Gorbachov played the hand he was given, managing to both keep his head and avoid nuclear war and for that he should be commended. I don't really think there was anything he could have done to keep the USSR together, however.

Millions of former Soviet citizens dead in the early 90's, local wars between Soviet nations, Moscow losing control over its satellite states - I would clearly call it Gorbachev's defeat in the Cold war

If USSR won the Cold War alongside with the United States, then how the hell USSR ended up dissolved?

No. The Americans won. The world lost.

Thought it came out in 82

Hopefully ghost

We need a waw remastered

I dont care about a sequel to AW, but they definitely should revisit Ghosts (and do it right) since it ended the way it did.
