Me thinks it's only "bad" because Americans cannot separate communism from the red scare.

@@froglegstastebestsaltedIt’s a red scare because communism stains nations red. Just like Adler, it’s people pretending to have the best hearts and minds. To care for the general public, who are then tossed aside and killed for their usefulness. People like you separate ideas from reality.

​​@@froglegstastebestsaltedIt's bad because you commit a nuclear attack to frame America and start WW3. It's literally ehat Makarov did you psycho. Most stable commie.

Let the record show nuking millions of people is in fact bad

There are no missiles that launch. The nuclear devices are neutron bombs (produce more radiation and less destruction) that have been buried beneath various European cities. In game it's mentioned that it is a deterrent to prevent the soviets from invading. But that only works if the soviets know they are there. And if the soviets know they are there, they would just tell the people about it and that would cause the people to be kinda upset that bombs are buried below there feet. As a plot device it makes very little sense. But it still makes for an interesting end scene.

who do you get shot dead by?

​@@Seth-Halo Those bombs were never to prevent a soviet invasion. They were for taking out invading soviet troops if the Soviets did actually invade. Scorched earth, basically.

@@groyperfuhr4871 Basically the bad ending is you lie to Adler but you press a button that notifies the Russians about what’s going to happen so that they can back you up and take down Adler and everyone else. But if you lie and don’t press that button, you just show up to the building and confess that you lied to Adler without any back up and he just shoots you and moves on and they don’t care at all.

​@@Pybro894 Perseus was using a system in the game, which isn't using nukes stored in the US. The US had already planted nukes throughout Europe and intended to set them off if Europe stopped supporting them (AKA they were holding Europe hostage) and so there was never a need to go into the US. In the game Perseus does get ahold of a nuke, it's how they learn that all the nukes detonate on the same signal, and despite this glaring weakness the US does not dismantle their system to save lives.

The only thing is that he immediately lost consciousness and got sent ~2m away from his cover, and in COD Bell just stood up like its nothing. But yeah, overall there is a bunch of variations of RPG ammo, and its probably the APFSDS one which barely has any explosives - IRL you would probably die from debris sent flying into your skull at 200m/s

If you know how a RPG rocket works then it's easy to know why Bell knocked off the explosion while Adler was shit

Ok emma

Bell had EOD equipped

it was your ally so there was no friendly fire

The RPG fired a HEAT warhead, not anti-personnel fragmentation head. Heat creates a tip focused explosive burst with a heated copper cone inject, it won't kill infantry unless they are directly hit by the blast or the created shrapnel.

@@Dumbreapping I look at it from how I'd feel from the perspective of the character I am currently playing. If I was in Bell's shoes, I would not give a damn about the bigger picture, or the things Steiner and Dragovich did to Mason, if I'm in Bell's position (which I was while playing as Bell in the campaign), I would feel nothing but anger towards Adler, and everyone on his side, because his side sanctioned him to do these things. My world view is an individual one, not a bigger picture.

@BabylonGames798 yet its no sanction on that said individual is why is say the "Bigger Picture" matters when it comes to this yeah you can try and put yourself in those shoes of a "Facless, voiceless and storiless" character so if you were to put this in prospective for a sec say they found "bell" and it turns out he's basically Perseus right hand and they did that back to em is why honestly what they really did to bell isn't as bad as what others have done in that past they were just the ones to put a lime light at the time and seems bad but in reality more of mercy than what the other sides would have done...Bell may have been the person you play as but that particular character has no voice or face just hands and a gun and maybe some choices depending on how you feel in the time but nun the less it's not like he was some sort of game changing man who made us think oh the right side is to kill the icons that seemed bad by doing their job Yet has been done countless times on the other side but when we do this on Our side nah we chose communism...and that's the bigger thing you're limiting yourself to information for false feelings of character that in reality was just a tool for the war to end that's how they saw Mason at the same time they literally shocked em in a chair to get info and he was American...so putting yourself in the prospect of the inevitable with limited info and Mason is standing right there hmmm 😑😑

​@@BabylonGames798 what is the lesser of two evils? The people who brainwashed you and pretended to be your friend to save millions if not billions of lives or the people who want to kill millions if not billions of people?

Will you be remembered as a martyr who saved innocent people or would you be remembered as a terrorist and be hunted till your final days as a murderer and a villain?

@@MediCowboy Bell wouldn't have been remembered at all in the "good" ending. He was a CIA loose end, struck from history with one bullet. That being said, from my personal point of view, the choice which has an outcome where I live is the right choice. If I die to save millions of people, that choice is ultimately pointless to me, because I died as a result, so what happens afterwards means nothing, because I would be nothing.

Adler is not the hero though. His mission was never to save the world. His mission was to keep the world from finding out about those secret nukes. The player is killed to cover up all the illegal experiments performed on a prisoner.

Instead, he took the highest risk possible to try to keep that secret.

I'd go so far to say that Cold War is the true canon sequel to Black Ops 1. If BO2 had released in 2012 with this campaign and the 1980s setting instead of the 2025 setting, that would've been fantastic. I liked BO2, but 3 and 4 were such a spit in the face to the WaW-BO2 storyline that Cold War was a breath of fresh air.
