@hilaryobiorah6478 an attack is different than a full on military invasion. 4 hijacked planes is different than over 100 military aircraft lying over an entire ocean to get to the mainland.
Idk, it was pretty amazing but so hard irrealistic that when i replayed the remastered i got carried only by the nostalgia, as the game felt like “nah… that is just impossible” like all the time
Dude I played it all in one sitting the day it came out. Took the day off work, and the day after, 9 hours of COD and I was hitting F like a mofo when trying to pull the knife out of my chest. F Shepard man.
Yeah, Keith David. Fun fact he's also the voice actor for the HBO Spawn animated series and Goliath in Gargoyles. Been in a lot of movies like The Thing and They Live. Very underrated actor
They have level-4 body armor, rifles, training, maybe even a few vehicles and air support. I think they can take a few poorly trained criminals who will most likely run before trying to fight them.
@@-mediumidk man when you consider that alot of these gang members see death on a daily basis im sure they would stand their ground against someone destroying their neighborhood lol
Even at the time this game was originally made, the idea that Russia would somehow skip ALL of Europe and NATO, cross the Atlantic Ocean and launch a surprise invasion of the U.S. East Coast without anyone noticing is arguably the most insanely unrealistic thing to happen in CoD, and that's saying something.
I guess they tried copy what World in Conflict does, the difference the soviet actually doing surprise attack by hiding their force in civilian container ship.
I guess that's why the new MW3 went in another direction to be more realistic- instead of full WW3 with Russia, its just a worldwide manhunt for Makarov
Yeah but it’s not as fun. The original MW3 had giant city battles, explosions everywhere, a manhunt that spanned from India to Africa, to Europe, and finally a final mission that ended with you bulldozing through Makarov’s army as you plan to ice the man. It was the most bad ass finale one could ask for. The new had none of that escalation that made the series work.
The new story is boring because nothing really happens aside from having your generic bad guy doing something mild compared to other conflicts that's happened in Call of Duty. Alongside that, you get drama from the characters all because of the mild conflicts. They fight Hadir for stealing the gas and joining Al-Qatala to take down Barkov; Shadow Company betrays Los Vaqueros and Ghost and Soap over three fucking missiles and Hassan, which they had before letting him go; and then 141 hating Shepherd for being a dumbass in the last game while on the hunt for Makarov. Same shit, different amounts of diarrhea.
@@doubleflores8350 In the OG MW3, Did the war end after you get Makarov? Never got a clear answer I thought the US/Russia war would continue, go nuclear, and maybe end the world
I'll be honest, "Wolverines!" and "Exodus" had to be my favorite missions in MW2 on account of being set in America's suburbs, all while the US military is scrambling to deal with the invading Russian forces while at the same time evacuating civilians and key personnel.
Man this mission and "Exodus" brings back so much great memories. The Coup De Grace ost hits me everytime and thats what made this mission really Fun to play. This game still holds up the best today and no doubt, better than the newer cods today👌🙏👏
@@Hardixm The same thing also happened to Russia. Putin announced a “special military operation” with the goals of “denazification” and “protecting the people of Donbas”. Putin, his allies both in Russia and abroad, said that Ukraine will fall in 3 days. It’s now 2024, 2 years after the invasion started, Russian soldiers are now entrenched in a stalemate similar to the Western Front in World War I. Simply put, Russia’s military is in a pathetic state, buddy.
The Japanese Empire wanted to do the same in WWII until their Emperor forbade Japan, "because every blade of grass will hide a rifle." At least that's what I remember.
Beside nukes its funny now that we believed the Russian army was a capable force. This scenario would be over before it started and not as cinematic in real life.
When has the US ever fought a nation 1-on-1 with satellites, Himar grade missiles, storm shadows, global hawks, Leapard level tanks with 10X the budget? Only Russia has. Russia is now in Karkov oblast. It's been 2.5 years and Mauripol hasn't been retaken.
@@mikejezek5214 Those are slow results for both sides. Russia has a lack of logistical competence and effective command structure. Ukraine has little to no money left and lacks the infrastructure to mass produce tanks, aircraft and certain weapons.
@@fredrickpoggi5493Russia's military suffers from the same problem the U.S. military has. It sucks for the first couple years of a major conflict. The upside is that they're highly adaptable.
@@spartan078ben Let's keep in mind that it was you who developed such games and built such an image. Our military doctrine never contemplated such operations, but it looks good in the game and is fun to play. Let the conflict between Russia and the USA better remain in video games, I speak as a Russian.)
@@spartan078benEven then this was a ridiculous idea. If Russia was going to invade us anywhere it would be through the Bering Strait into Alaska and down the west coast from there. They wouldn't fucking fly em over Europe because the rest of NATO would have turned their planes into field decorations
Wow that's his game came out in 2009 when i was 21 years old and the 2009 global economic crisis was hitting Extremely hard. Push forward 2024 now im 34 this brings back a lot of good and bad memories. The struggles the millennial generation HAVE to go thru
Ahh yeah 😂 each decade every generation has claimed the same thing for over a century the fact is the US always lives on the edge yet it hasn't collapsed because at the end of the day they are Americans not a ethnicity but a nationality
I remember as a kid in Russia playing this game and thinking - damn this is fantasy, our army is nowhere near as professional as this one in the game. And how 100% correct, I was
Tbh, I think it’s very unlikely either side would be able to easily get air vehicles into their opponent’s backyard. Not to mention landing in Alabama, which would essentially be a self deletion mission. Russia (in my opinion) would likely ally with China since they aren’t necessarily on good terms with the US either. China currently has hypersonic missiles, which unless there has been new developments I have not heard of, the US has no effective defense against as of yet (to be fair the Us military is likely not showing all their cards for security reasons). If this still is the case, China (or Russia since I think they too have at least one hypersonic missile) could IN THEORY (and very unlikely to occur) hit the US with one or more that contains some sort of nuclear warhead or EMP (not sure if they’re the same necessarily so I’m gonna keep the separate for right now). But to invade the US? Very unlikely imo. They’d probably use the chance to gain more ground in the pacific (like taking Taiwan) and/or Ukraine. There’s no reason good enough to invade the US that I can think of. Plus you have NATO right at Russia’s doorstep, so good luck even trying to get NEAR the Us.
I can talk about China’s response because I’ve been in country for 5+ years at this point. Realistically, China would politely tell Russia to piss off because they’re not going to attack their number 1 customer. It’s bad for business, and there’s no money to be made. I can see them supplying Russia with weapons and equipment but that’s about it. However in the context of the game, China might do what you said but they wouldn’t risk the lives of their troops unless the mainland or Special Administrative Regions (HK, Taiwan, and Macau) come under attack.
@@Zapper-kq1zgActually, statistics show that anywhere from 49.6% (2024 Imperva Bad Bot Report) to 73% (Arkose Labs) of internet traffic is generated by bots, so he’s actually not wrong about how common bots are
I honestly find it funny that people still believe that Russia could pull this off even after Russia losing so much in Ukraine with little to show for the losses
Thats because at the time, the best references we had for modern Russian military performance was Chechnya and Georgia... that is to say, Russia absolutely ruined them. Now, while the US is of course way more built than twenty of those put together, we still saw Russia as this unholy force of nature on the battlefield because of how little they fucked around in the 00's.
i find it funny that the player would take his sweet time throwing smoke grnades in front of an enemy squad without getting a scratch while standing cutely remember this is a video game and even russia is like wtf these people created a narrative of us invading them😂
Why do i feel if one of the radars or whatever they are using are reporting 70 "boggies", the air force would do more than "haha good joke" " i totally wont send a pair up to investigate"
Nobody has thought Russia or anybody could invade us, even when Red Dawn dropped in 1984. The furthest they might get is a couple hundred miles inside of Alaska.
As another person said, Russia is a lot like the US in terms of wars. They struggle at first but do much, much better later in the war. The same thing can be said for Ukraine. Don’t believe me? Google the latest reports in Ukraine.
Maybe if they have cloaking tech. But that would required refueling mid air while transporting the supplies and soldiers.... So tbey need a continental aircraft that can reach the US coast without refueling. Second, a cloaking device to mask the vehicle until they reach the US state to where they plan to land. Third, make sure they have numerous of this aircraft, otherwise...
They really wanted to justify Russia being able to invade the East Coast but couldn't provide an explanation for how the entire Russian navy could sail past Iceland and the UK without being seen. I mean, physically seen by any of the hundreds of commercial vessels sailing in those waters. At least Red Dawn worked hard to come up with a semi-plausible scenario for the USSR to invade.
You don't. A Russian invasion on the East Coast is about the most unlikely, if not impossible scenario. You expect me to believe the rest of NATO watched all that shit fly by and went "oh gee willikers good luck America"?
So, here's the deal with Russia’s slow roll in Ukraine. Their military doctrine is all about hitting strategic targets and keeping civilian casualties to a minimum. They’re not going for the shock and awe approach, ya know? Russia is super careful, aiming at military spots, not just bombing everything in sight. This takes time. Saving civilians is a biggie for them. They advance slowly to avoid hurting innocent folks. Russia sees NATO in Ukraine like the US would see Russian bases in Texas. Freak-out levels would be off the charts, and the US would probably react hardcore. US tactics go big, go fast, and collateral damage happens. Russian tactics are slow and steady, keeping civilians safe. Russia’s playing the long game, balancing military goals and keeping non-combatants safe, making the whole thing drag on
@@Zapper-kq1zg Просто я доктрину РФ читал и какое-то время углубленно изучал наш менталитет. Ощущения до и после изучения можно описать фразой Шелдона Купера: «Why? Why?!... Oh, that's why 🤔»
Russia targeting civilian electrical infrastructures during winter to freeze civilians 🥺 we are just targeting military infrastructures said every military in this planet ever
I've never played this before, so this makes no sense to me. How is Russia capable of invading America? America outclasses it by an order of magnitude, has no fleet, and then there is the elephant NATO, which stands between Moscow and Washington. Does this make more sense in the game?
It makes even less sense in game because Russia has just been through a long, bloody civil war. Yet somehow, five years later they have a fleet on a par with the USA; something the Soviet Union never had. For how impossible this is, in real life China's military isn't projected to be equal to the USA's until 2060 at the earliest.
russia is using another approach - they are owning republican party so orange florida man type of liars can get into the white house and do service for putin and xi by letting world's dictators get a tighter grip around the civilization's neck
The Ural was an asset carried over from CoD4 I believe, they were probably too lazy to make a different model. As for the BTR...idk. They probably thought it looked cooler. Maybe it could be justified by saying they captured an airfield already.
Russia in American video game: I will launch an invasion thousands of miles away from homeland and bring the greatest military to its knees. Russia in Reality: I can't take the neighboring village because it's 3 miles away from the train lines. SEND HELP! US loves to over-appriciate her enemies xD
And USA in reality: we can’t destroy farmers with sticks and donkeys for 20 years and running away like dogs from Afghanistan and after taliban took power in a few days
This scene is sure for countries that support USA 🇺🇸 best examples are Afghanistan 🇦🇫, Ukraine 🇺🇦 where these countries fought against Russia 🇷🇺 in the name of USA 🇺🇸
Russia in video games: Literally brings more than 300,000 soldiers and heavy vehicles to the U.S. Definitely the greatest logistical feat in history. Russia in real life: It took 4 weeks to take over a Ukrainian public park.
As much as I loved mw2 I will tell you that even if Russia did manage to land in the United States, they would not only need to be ready for our military but also the civilians who own weapons as well. Keep this in mind there are 333 million people who live in the US, and there are 393 million civilian owned firearms. Dont think for a second that civilians won't arm themselves to defend the country.
And those civilians with no combat experience will be gunned down in droves, making it much easier for an invader to assert control. Handguns and shotguns (the majority of firearms owned in the States) cannot defeat soldiers. That's why in Red Dawn, the Wolverines quickly switch to using Russian military weapons.

Это Русская земля для справки достаточно зайти в WaybackArhive и все что до 20 века увидите из газет,книг и прочих документов оригиналы которых находятся во всем мире что там никогда небыло украинцев.Украина была создана в результате революции в 20 веке из земель Русских и Польских.Мотив её создания был для многих непонятен,скорее всего исходя из того что СССР хотел подчеркнуть культурное отличие субэтноса славян может по этой также причине. По поводу 2х лет почти 30 % территории под контролем и многие люди живущие там это поддерживают. Поставки оружия скорее всего и вашей страной это замедлили и постройки крепкие советской эпохи. Там не Ирак который оказался на едине с самим собой и с строениями из глины. Поставки оружия многих видов могут лишь привести к ядерной войне,видели как действует бомба 100 раз более сильнее взорвавшейся в хиросиме например? А есть и более объёмом в мегатонах🤷♂️Поэтому с каждым разом если поставки будут увеличивается риск применения этого возрастет. Нам было всеравно что вы делали в Ираке или Фолкмендах и вам должно быть всеравно что происходит там и это в значительной дали от вас если вы живёте например в Британии.
@@ColinoDeani ну конечно, мы же не ведём себя как американцы уничтожая всё напалмом, если бы русские действовали как сша, и украину и вас стёрли в порошок
Man I miss when they strived for these crazy, almost apocalyptic massive setpieces. Now all we get is 3rd world places and counter terrorism for like what feels like a decade. the juxtaposition of pure americana with this combined arms war stuff is so sick
I wonder how the Russian people would handle the 80% to 90% casualty rate just getting here. And with between 300 million and 400 million weapons in this country the losses from civilians shooting back would be enormous.
Russia in media pre russo-ukrainian war: Yep could invade the US on Friday, turn right around and be all the way to Paris by Sunday while the Americans are still regrouping. Russia in media afterwards: you see ivan you put shed on top of tank and scary drone no longer scary.
Lol, just the title of this made me laugh. Even though it’s not meant to be a joke it was still pretty damn funny. Then the mission name, “Wolverines” that summed it up for me.
looking at this today, i can surely say russia aint got a single flyin fkin chance to invade even single state of america :D imagine russians invading south :D like.. bruh :D :D :D :D
If Russia attacked Europe first get a strong foothold on it and with good strategic planning they can take Most of Europe but the US would be a lot more difficult
Id say it would be as close to impossible as you can get to take the US for the same reason the Japs didn't try it, behind every blade of grass is a rifle and in my state of Alabama they would never think to try it, maybe they could land in some simp states like new York or California but the clock would be ticking before we ground them up
Yeah Europe would be easier as European armies may not be able to react as quickly to invasions on their continent, since at least when they’re invaded they may not be one country with one army to communicate efficiently with each other. But that’s just my opinion.
If the war in Ukraine is anything to go by, it's that Russia wouldn't have anywhere near the capability we see in this video XD If Russians have struggled to overtake Ukraine in 2 years, imagine the losses and difficulty they'd face facing off with an actual prepared and heavily armed American military force
This is even funnier looking back, obviously nuclear weapons are terrifying but Russia can’t even invade the country next to them successfully so this is not a concern

Anyways keep letting the media fool you all as usual 😂😂 btw i am not russian but i understand what’s going on unlike you people 😂
In reality the military build up of an invasion force would be seen weeks to months before an invasion began They’d have to get past NATO Allie’s first, then the US NAVY, and then they’d have to get past coastline defenses. It’s possible but nearly impossible and downright suicide. Holding the U.S. under occupation would be nearly impossible due to the heavy resistance and insurgency coming from the U.S. citizens The U.S. has so many military forces outside of the country they could just easily surround you and cut you off if you manage to make it to the coast
@@imadudewithissues they had no quarrel with europe, from their perspective it was an attack done purely by the US and was unanimously condemned, on top of that article five in NATO does not go into effect if the nato country is the aggressor.
