"Korsakov, Stasov - many of the great nationalist composers." I had never heard of the great Russian composer Stasov before, so I decided to look him up. It turns out he wasn't a composer - he was a critic. Nice job, Treyarch.
And they both end up getting betrayed Black ops 1: Dragovich Kravckenko and steiner put reznovs team in nova 6 Chambers to let them die Black ops 2: Hudson gives woods false information and gets tricked into killing Mason (or not if you shoot him in the leg)
@@itsmeri1ey922I’d say Noriega was the one who betrayed him, Hudson like the person above me said was forced or else killed, and was probably threatened with a slow death, even though we all know what happened in the basement after.
@@Fatchick2316 Noriega never betrayed Woods because Noriega was never Alies with Mason, Woods and Hudson, he is only with them he is captured and if he tries anything, Woods will 100 percent kill him and even though Hudson was being forced it still counts as Hudson betraying him because it led to a death of their friends. Dont get me wrong, Hudson is a good guy but his actions even when forced caused a death of one of his Alies. So even though Hudson didnt want to do it and was forced he still got his friends in danger and one of them possibly killed. i dont know thats how i see it, dont get mad at me haha
@@itsmeri1ey922 I understand, however I figured Noriega betrayed them as he was helping them sorta out of his will, he was a some-what ally until the rooftop scene where it was all unfolded, just like BO1’s Project nova, Noriega is like Dragovich’s reincarnation, same personality, same intentions. Hudson had the choice of either tell what he was told to do or refuse and get punished, even with what happened in the basement with Hudson’s fate I think he was better off refusing, unless Menendez was gonna go full out cartel mode and his fate was the easier way out. I agree with a lot of what you said, I haven’t played BO2’s campaign in 2 years so memory is a bit fuzzy, everybody in that situation was life or death.
People say World at War was a dark game. So was this one. Especially this call back scene. It portrays the hellish/nightmarish time of genocide, and murder, and that at the worst we've seen in modern history. This scene, especially at the beginning with the chilling creepy music playing whilst he speaks of a horrid nightmarish crime that happened to his father. That music continues to play throughout the scene, whilst Resnov deals with his nightmares of the past, betrayal and PTSD. Just as Mason relives his memories. In this way, Resnov truly does live through Mason.
It’s such a shame that when this mission was made, all of the WaW weapons were implemented but you only use about a quarter of them in the entirety of playing Black Ops. Wasted potential.
Rick O'Shay There was even gonna be an MP40 killstreak in MP, but obviously that didn’t happen. I would have at least liked it in Zombies if you could use all the WaW weapons from the box instead of the Cold War era.
Evelyn Gravatt there was voice lines for an MP40 kill streak. It was presumably during the alpha/beta phase of the game which would explain why the kill streak isn’t a thing today.
Everyone chant with me STEP ONE SECURE THE KEYS STEP TWO ASCEND FROM DARKNESS STEP THREE RAIN FIRE STEP FOUR UNLEASH THE HORDES STEP FIVE SKEWER THE WINGED BEAST STEP SIX WIELD THE FIST OF IRON STEP SEVEN RAISE HELL STEP EIGHT FREEDOM
@@trollege9618 Even though reznov was using mason for his own agenda But god damn it reznov is still a hero in my eye and a badass and always have a place in my heart
Black Ops gave me chills when I first played it in 2010. I preferred the modern warfare series but the atmosphere you got with black ops was second to none. Incredible
This is the Cold War, it's set 6 months after the end of WW2 in Europe or if you're counting Japan one month after the end. That's the point of the mission, they're Nazi Germany remnants
Many do not know this but... this mission is based off of a real life mission called Operation High Jump. Task Force 68 included 4,700 men, 13 ships, and 33 aircraft. Operation HIGHJUMP’s primary mission was to destroy the last remnants of the Third Reich, destroy the deep underground military base the Germans had built, and establish a U.S. base in the Arctic. America stormed Antarctica armed with Admiral Byrd's fleet of ships as well as other combatants including quite a few fighter jets and other aircraft. Now what happens next sounds crazy and may or may not be true but Admiral Byrd himself as well as other U.S. military witnesses describe a battle that ensues. They describe Germans with MG42s shooting from bunkers and after a small time of fighting a large craft ascends out of the ocean and begins attacking Admiral Byrd's fleet. There was a craft that witnesses described as a flying saucer that was assisting the Germans in battle. The Allies quickly retreated. Don't believe it? Google it. This is all documented by the United States. Operation High Jump. What really happened in the arctic in those years we may never know.
@@-Cheif Operation High Jump was a very real thing in Antarctica, it’s just the conspiracy theory that postulates it was the last battle of WW2. Which is quite appropriate for something like Black Ops, which is all about conspiracies. They touch on JFK conspiracies very much, as well.
Ik people need to play this instead of their latest cash grab. Maybe seeing more people flocking to what we wanna see from them might wake Activision up a little bit
13:51 if you’ve shot a real gun you know you will intuitively push your gun downward instead of upward when you have a malfunction, because of the anticipation of recoil.
@@DROGOC0Plol I just rewatched this part and even the victim was an actor, he was falling the same direction where his body would have fallen if there was ammo. Both are paid actors.
God that Steiner revel was fucking ice cold, mark my words you will never see another single player campaign with such an engaging story. Gaming is now in the mainstream and we’re gonna be getting straight dog shit for a very very long time... shame😪
@@Eve.The.Whore.Of.Babylon absolutely agreed, also loved the Kowloon map (both singleplayer and multiplayer). I absolutely love such map variety in old COD games
Well Roebuck can either survive or die in WAW cause if you save polensky Roebuck will die (I saved polensky) So I guess they just maybe retired and died in another battle
This single mission was better than the whole CoD world war 2 game , hands down black ops 1 and world at war where the REAL deal , now its just disappointing
If they were to do another world war 2 game they should make some either based on the Aleutian Islands campaign or on the Soviet war fighting the Japanese towards the very end of the war.
SlySkydiver 2585 soviet russia memes are basically chuck norris memes, so theyre not funny anymore because theyre the same jokes used over and over again
not sure if vanguard is in the same universe as black ops but it could be like how mw reboot and black ops are the same timeline, but in vanguard they also made zombies canon so yeah
Am I the only one who felt bad for the German soldiers that got killed even when they surrendered? The Red Army were brutal as fuck, same as all other armies in WW2, but I think the Reds were the worst since they had experienced what the Germans did to their land, to their people, to their blood.
It's honestly horrifying, being lined up and seeing people executed one by one until they get to you. Not a lot of people are going to have sympathy for the Germans, especially not the Russians after what the Nazis did and planned to do.
That was rather more likely how the Germans executed “US” prisoners in Graignes, 5 bayoneted while alive, the rest shot in the head one by one. After all that is fictional, and even if similar events happen in the actual war, they earned what they got. Since they ravaged russian homeland brutally and mercilessly. I don’t say Red army was far from being brutal, however, but for the Japanese, none matched the brutality of the Germans against East Europe. Given the number of how many people and cities they destroyed
A time where people where made out of bubbles and any sharp idea or thing could just burst them and they would complain and cry over it. By changing everything so it would not hurt them instead of changing themselves
They was on paper but in reality Uk/us relations with Soviet Russia was very strained and not very strong as Churchill was worried that Stalin was going to control half of Europe in the Soviet empire.
honestly , common media keep showing soviet soldiers as disposable and mindlessly charging at enemy , like sure sometimes they do but it's more like a last resort , they still have squad tactics and stuff and order 227 was enforced on a squad to company battalion level , barrier troops rarely were encourage to shoot and only to fire warning shots or arrest people and put them into strafbataillon, execution are reserve for officiers because they failed to motivate the frontline troops to stand their line. so 227 was just to limit the number of unauthorised retreats
They knew they cant turn Reznov and Dimitri besides they have past with Reznov back in Siege of Stalingrad, and Dragovich wanted to see how Nova6 affects on human beings
What a pity are Tvelin and Petrenko, even Vykharev and Belov. They were the ones who fought for the whole union, killing bloodthirsty Germans. They all died on this ship, I felt sorry for them. They were people who went down in the history of modern textbooks
Cause the explosion knocked the balance out of his legs and he couldn't get up so just had to crawl while his fellow comrade left him behind and then he was eventually captured and sent to vorkuta So it's safe to say Reznov got betrayed twice in this mission
Because Steiner is holding out as a the last bastion of hope for the now dissolved SS to defend the non existent Reich until the brutal end. Being that he is in a desolate outpost along the arctic circle, I guess he didn’t get the memo that Hitler is dead and that 4 nations have split Germany in quarters and that WW2 has been officially over for the last few months 😮
Well the Nazis did have expeditions to Antarctica and the Polar Circle in the North-European Arctic, so not entirely fiction, but this plot is made-up.
This mission was great But I still don't know why we couldn't use these guns on multiplayer it same thing with black ops 2 guns that Get used on missions during the cold war like the ak47 or colt 1911 You can't use any weapons from a previous war or previous Decade And also guns form would war 2 was still be used a lot during the 60s What the pps h or the tt handgun or the mp40 or mp38
