I liked WWII Zombies tbh, it was a callback to WaW while also taking things in its own direction. I just wish Sledgehammer could've followed up on it because where it ended feels too much of a cliffhanger.
100% but I guess we'll never know what they had in store for us
WaaWWWWWWaaw
Yeah I wanna see more of WW2 zombies.
WW2 as a whole is underrated
To be fair the only thing I personally hated about the game mode was the jumpscares and the pacing of the tension you feel in the game because it feels more like a quick burn of tension vs the slow burn of the other games other then that it was good and different.
if this is Sledgehammer's last try at Zombies, I think they went out with a bang, this is probably my second favourite Zombies experience
Right? It's really good
Whats your first favorite
Seeing a lot of people who hate on it is kinda sad cause it’s actually a pretty good zombies experience, but people play one game and say they hate it
@@Stanley557 That was a lot of copium you were selling.
This is their only try at zombies, Raven made AW zombies
I really liked WWII Zombies, I thought they were hands down the creepiest zombies and I genuinely enjoyed the maps
Right? Dark vibes how zombies should be
I think out of all the non Treyarch zombie modes this one had the most potential wish we would have got to see them give it another shot I bet it would have been really good
Absolutely, much like Treyarch who refined their skills overtime, a 3rd Sledgehammer game probably would've been amazing, but alas we'll never know
@@Stanley557 sadly true
@@themasteroffear2041 lgzbbn
Nah iw zombies 2nd attempt would of blew this outta the water
I agree, it’s a shame people hated on it just because it wasn’t Treyarch
Since vanguard zombies failed miserably I went back to older cod zombies I never played and ww2 is actually really challenging and fun
The atmosphere with zombies that look like they were experiments etc. just feels pretty cool.
Same boat here!! I love it too
@@yuurichito1439 agreed
I agree Zombies WWII is a masterpiece, especially after the underwhelming campaign, it was well thought out and designed with cool Easter eggs.
@@ziggypop79 Agreed, I ended up getting a world record speed run for darkest shore, it got beat now but it was still cool to have
If treyarch wasn’t an icon, my bias gone, WWII would probably be one of the best zombies experiences ever. It was certainly unique and had a great concept
Something to appreciate with WW2 Zombies is how they tied both campaign and multiplayer with the Attack of the Undead event after The Shadowed Throne.
MP had the allies fight off the Undead army in various modes like in Hordepoint and Infected. They even had a War map "Operation Arcane" based on Zombies with the Allies raiding a Nazi Weapons facility holding the tesla guns from The Final Reich.
Plus Vivian and Rideau are characters from campaign, so campaign, multiplayer, and zombies were all connected
L tbh
Also for Stanley and anyone who happens to care you can save a normal zombie or two walkers if you shoot their arms off. Gibbed zombies can't be turned to sizzlers. This helps a lot throughout the egg for shadowed throne
Yeah someone told me about that one time on stream, wish I knew that before going into it
This feels like a Jr rizzo retrospective but without the nitpiks and I love it. His videos made me give this game another chance after playing a few games and saying that game bad. This is the second review of WWII that gives it a chance and is way better than whatever most of the popular youtubers think. I give this review a 10/10
Edit: you unlock the Thompson, MP40 and M1 garand as starting weapons after beating all eggs.
Didn't know that thanks for telling me! And glad you enjoyed it!
I kinda wish The Act Man gave this game another shot.
I can definitely see the Jr rizzo similarities. That is a compliment forsure
@@andrewgentry2411 facts he really should have
I loved WW2 zombies. I loved how much effort was put into it despite being made by a small team. The hidden characters were really fun to unlock especially for me, and I liked the story for what it was, Cameron Dayton is excellent at worldbuilding. Only thing that would've made it better for me was having one more "real" map over The Tortured Path which admittedly kinda sucks, but even then, I don't think it's completely awful either.
Fun fact: On Tortured Path’s second map at the last fish in the bucket step, my buddies and I found out that if you explode a grenade on the bucket that the fish goes in, it leaves a black mark on it making that step a lot easier to complete
Edit: As someone who has put literally 3000+ hours into WW2 zombies, completed every single character challenge, and done every Easter Egg more times than I can count, it is definitely my favorite iteration of zombies by a long shot. I made so many friends online who were just as passionate about this zombies mode as I was and the community surrounding this game in its prime was unlike anything I’ve seen before or since. I could sit here and list off tricks for doing challenges, Easter Egg steps……the whole nine yards but there’s just so much to this game I would be here forever. It’s awesome to see a TH-camr who can actually appreciate this game as its own standalone mode and not just hate on it because it’s not Treyarch
This is one of the most informed videos about WW2 zombies I’ve seen. Great job!
I'm so happy you loved it! And that's so cool didn't know that about the cup and fish game!
I got something new for you in NaziZombies...check out Zomslash videos on WWII
Extend the Thulian Shield trial to as long as you want and leave with tons of jolts 😉
@@ericbstudios9807 ooh didn't know that, that's cool. Shame it's usually the last one I build
@@Stanley557 yep i usually build the shield last as well. Problem is you can do everything by round 9 but you wont have enough money to pack both your guns...UNLESS you stay in the shield trial for awhile and get as many jolts as you want. Then you can come out of the trial and just buy everything and go straight to boss fight 😉
I remember my first time experiencing the blood sewers event, my first thought was "oh I'm so boned" and my final thought was, "oh they are so boned"
I was wondering why the meistermeuchler looks so similar to the Deadspace necromorphs and then I remembered that Glen Schofield was part of the zombies team.
I remember enjoying this zombies for what it was, I thought it was a MASSIVE step down from IW zombies though as I LOVED the lore and world building for that mode along with it personally feeling the most fun to play. Little did I know that it would only get worse with Black ops 4… the last call of duty that I will ever purchase
I’ve played Cold War at a friends and it doesn’t feel like I’m missing much
I absolutely love how you don’t just shit on the entire game because it’s not the aether story. My favorite zombie games are generally the most hated, and I hear a lot of shit about it, so this was very refreshing.
Cold War really does feel like WW2 zombies but with competent map design.
Tbh I liked ww2 better, the feel of the gameplay and the dark gritty atmosphere is like no other, and Cold War doesn’t have that gritty feeling
@@michaelstewart9309 cold War doesnt have any feel at all
Not a bad game, but a very bland one
@@hidenname541no soul to it, facts
I have patiently waited for this video, now I will patiently wait for the extinction retrospective😂Thank you for all the work you do❤️
Holy cow thank you! Kind words like this make the past six months worth it! Hope it lives up to your expectations!
@@Stanley557 You are more than welcome! I absolutely love the retrospectives you’ve done on infinite warfare and advanced warfare, so two and half hours on this one is gonna be a treat 😂❤️
I love this games zombies so much I think it’s top 3 for me in my opinion, that maps were amazing except the shitty path but other then that the maps were amazing, I loved the story and it has 100% the best replayability with all of the character challenges, man this game is a gem to me, and darkest shore is 1000000% my favorite map on ww2
One quote I remember the most. “Now we’re cooking with gas” just never stopped, over and over
Another one is drostan saying Ohh Fancy or when ever you activate the hilt to make the Tesla gun he yells this thing sucks down zombie juice
WW2 Zombies created so many memories with me and i love it it’s just underrated
I completed every single challenge for zombies, they were a lot of fun and added lots of replay ability. But there were like 5 challenges that were absolutely insane lol Very underrated zombies mode
Which ones
Which ones
This was a great review! I really appreciate your style when it comes to analysing zombies as a whole, you have a very fresh perspective and it's clear that your opinions truly are your own. It's honestly a breath of fresh air to have someone such as yourself or Rizzo within the community who gives a genuinely well-made and detailed review of the series when the vast majority of bigger content creators who cover the game pump out a lot of less than quality videos and regurgitate the same basic opinions ad-nauseum. There is a lot of detail in your video(s) and I appreciate you actively combatting common misconceptions about certain things within the maps or the games as a whole that are spread by larger channels and thus repeated by the general community and player base at large. I'm excited to see more!
The Final Reich was a great
map. Training in the pack a punch room was a lot of fun
Honestly, a perfect upload for 115 day. A great insight into a game most don't care to go back and visit. I love your perspective, and seeing the game from a different light has given me sort of a newfound appreciation for it. Despite its setbacks, I would've loved to see what they could've done for a sequel. If the rumor of CWZ originally being a direct sequel to WW2Z is true, it's a shame we were so close to seeing what that would've looked like.
Right! It's crazy what could've been. Who knows what they would've done but after all spending so much time with the game I think they would've knocked it out of the park
Just started watching your videos,I love how in depth you go into the maps,and I feel like ww2 zombies was by far the most underrated out of all the zombies games
Great work Stanley. Subbed, as this is the second video I've seen that's entertaining, educational and well edited, and amusing/comedic. Love the background music, clearly you are a TRUE zombies fan. Treyarch should be proud my friend. Hope you arnt actually lonely, you deserve better, but then again so do a lot of people.
Wishing the best for you and others
Thank you for leaving such a kind comment thank you. I am blessed to always have the support I have in my life both online and offline. I love this series to its core, if you liked this video I can't recommend enough my IW AW IX and Cold War reviews. There's nothing I love more than this series and getting to share it with so many is a blessing I'll never stopping being thankful for. Have a good one bro
SEVERELY UNDERRATED. The video was well made and thought out, it was long but not boring which made it way more bearable to sit through 2 and a half hours. Overall really good video! I do agree that some parts of the zombies mode is overlooked but overall it's just not as great as the other zombies modes and personally not for me but dang even though I dont really like the game you made me want to hop on and do a few rounds which is not a simple task. You have easily just earned a new subscriber and probably at least 100 others just from this video alone, keep up the good work hopefully by the end of the year you can hit 10K subs.
Thanks man! I'm super glad to hear it got you to play the game! That's all that matters to me, getting to share the gamemode I love with so many others! And glad you loved the video too!
Wow, what an amazing review. You might be the reason I will get WW2 zombies prioritized as a zombies game I should most definitely have rather than getting it to complete the collection. Seriously amazing and in-depth video. You deserve much more views and subs for the amount of effort that was poured into this video as well as the past ones on AW and IW. Cheers!
Glad you enjoyed the video! Comments like these make it all worth it!
@@Stanley557 Stanley I agree you did fantastic . Made me go and get the season pass even though it's still 50$
@@Jactional haha ain't that a high compliment, hope you're having a good day and thanks!
Hell yes I've been waiting for this!!!
Watched the whole video mate, great job. ❤
Bro I’ve watched two of your zombie videos so far and I’ve enjoyed them hella, I hope you keep it up man, I’m enjoying the content
Glad you like them!
Amazing restrospective for WWII Zombies, appreciate the effort and hard work put into this it really shows. This is gonna make me revist the game it had alot of potenital and the art direction/atmosphere may be the best of all zombies games in my opinion.
Coming back to this video now, I really enjoyed WWII zombies. I honestly do not understand why others didn't, it had a nice story and good characters. It actually felt scary and brought me back to WAW zombies.
I actually enjoy this zombies. I didn't give this game the light of day bc of all the criticism but after playing it in 2023 I can appreciate what they were going for with this game. I just wish I had friends to do the EE.
Listened to this video while at work and it reminded me as to why i loved this zombie mode. I really need to go back and play this again
WW2 is one of the best and most fun cods in my opinion
Great vid man, finally someone that makes comprehensive videos on the zombies games people dont usually want to cover🙏
Thank you for watching! Glad you enjoyed it
Dude, I love your videos and how you put them together. Keep up the grind!
Glad you liked them
I actually really like sledgehammer zombies, i think their all very fun
I absolutely love your content man! Very underappreciated. Thank you as always
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you for the nice comment!
Love the care you put into this!
glad you enjoyed it!
I genuinely cannot believe that there is a single soul that likes WWII zombies better than IW zombies. WWII isn't bad but I wouldn't say it's good either, it feels like they sat down with a checklist of everything zombies should have and then made an off brand, great value version of it. Comparing WWII zombies to any of the treyarch zombies is like comparing sam's cola to coke it just ain't a competition.
I just found you today and I really respect your style. I know the frustration that you feel with hidden Easter eggs; I personally have holy artifacts my brother and I made as cheat sheets. I remember trying to play BO4 at launch with tears in my eyes trying to decipher some steps.
For example, in Classified the step where you shoot the portraits, I couldn’t get it to work ever. Then I found you need to show the plaques in order of their deaths (ALL FOUR OF THEM), and I had to take a lap around my room😅.
sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh this is gonna be a long ass 2 hours of Stanley557 explaining how bad WW2 zombies is. better get the popcorn ready
Dang really had to spoil the whole thing 😔
@@Stanley557 had to do it to them :/
@@Awesome-Aaron06 in all honesty I really enjoyed WWII, good game
@@Stanley557 it was meh for me but I can't lie I played mp more than zombies in that game and same will be for vanguard
Just subbed found your channel a few day ago i love long form reviews and you did WW2 justice thanks man
Thanks my dude! Glad you liked it!
im really glad you gave props to the horror aesthetic of this game. i’ve always felt that the Zombie designs in WWII are some of, if not the absolute best in the series and the atmosphere, at least in The Final Reich, was absolutely incredible. i think i would have been 13 when this game was coming out, totally just getting into horror, and i absolutely LOVED the main trailer for The Final Reich. i remember watching it over and over again, and this was the first time i was super excited for a non-Treyarch Zombies game. i genuinely wanted it to succeed so badly. sadly tho, as a poor preteen i couldn’t afford to buy it and never did aside from with a few friends :(
ridiculously underrated video. the quality is phenomenal!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
im surprised on how this is such a small channel yet your videos are actually really good and give a lot of your own thoughts and opinions to help prove why certain mechanics are good/bad. Honestly, i know zombies is dead right now but this is really good content, u should be proud. keep it up dude
Thank you so much! It means a lot! Comments like these always make it worth it!
@@Stanley557 no problem dude, there’s so much negativity in the world that I when I see something that has a lot of really good effort and work put into it, regardless the size of the channel or whatever it is, u need to appreciate what work went into that project because it just makes the persons day. I know I’m just some random dude on the internet and you’ve probably gotten a bunch of comments like this but it never hurts to help support small creators. Have a great day my man
In groesten house you actually have a mystery box, you need to shoot all lanterns in the house and outside the house by the zombie spawns and then a room opens up upstairs with the box
He said it
I'm actually really glad u brought up the fact the midnight and hurricane names should have been switched. I've thought the very same thing for years
Great review man! I personally love WW2 zombies, I'm glad Sledgehammer gave it their best on one last run (for now).
Ww2 zombies was the first time I thought about why they hadn’t made a legitimate campaign of just zombies. We got something in one of the sci-fi cod’s but the story presented here seems like it would have been more interesting as a fleshed out campaign as opposed to the normal Easter egg stuff
I really wished they made a all zombies game. Everything would be focused in on the zombies aspect for the best and could also act as an archive for every zombie modes. As well could present multiple story lines to play through… but that’s just a dream of mine
This video is fantastic,I’m definitely gonna watch the rest of your content.
Glad you enjoyed it! I consider this video one of my best!
I got into WW2 zombies late, like really late, like last year late. Anyways, I loved the creepiness of it, game actually made me scared lol. One reason I quit playing was the perk machine / whatever they are called. Died quite a few times trying to re-get a perk when I downed in a round because it holds you for like 2 seconds. I know I know, skill issue, but still. At least you could grab the perk bottles & move.
This video is absolutely perfect for me to listen to at work or while driving!
Those are some very kind words, thank you so much!
Well Put Together Video! It even out does a few of the easter egg guides! Which is surprising for a retrospective! There are still some mistakes and goofs i just couldn't resist mentioning though:
1:29:03 You Actually Don't Need to spin the dial in circles to reset it, you just need to back off the safe to reset it. There's also a trick with that: if you were to leave the dial on the correct first number, it would count and you could go straight to number #2, saving some time. Laufenblitz (Stamin up) also gives unlimited sprint in ww2. Combine that with a melee weapon with a charge attack, there's no cooldown after the charge ends. Which means you can outrun the zombies, pests and gekocht if you have the pickaxe or nazi axe, making the safe step possible solo without specialists or jacks.
1:39:17 There is a better way to restock Wunderbuss ammo: The Wunderbuss pickup you probably mentioned on Straub's airship Actually gives full ammo everytime you pick up a New Wunderbuss, which helps prevent dagger roulette.
2:25:33 If my memory is correct, this is not a co-op exclusive phase. I accidentally made into the 5th phase on my first few solo attempts of the boss fight before i beat the fight for the first time on co-op, and i don't remember considering a phase where god king makes shielded enemies, the blood moon wipe attack, and a faster fire wall attack all in the same phase fairly balanced back then. Especially since there was little to no information on it back then. It is a beatable phase though, just gotta fully utilize the melee weapons' abilities and play smart.
2:31:06 This is slightly wrong, you don't have to do the main easter egg on darkened path. (Thank god) You have escape all 3 maps in a row to unlock the sanguine skull. I know this because i have not beat the main easter egg on darkened path difficulty yet.
Other than my long nitpicks that just want to help correct some mistakes, Once again, You Did a Great job on this video and i don't seriously feel the maps were unfairly judged or misanalyzed here!
But, I am more surprised you got this game's easter egg achievements all on solo! I don't know anyone else on TH-cam who did that! You have my undying respect just for that! 👍
But in all honesty though: 0/10 retrospective, Frozen dawn is worst F tier zombies map ever, how dare you not give it 1/10! >:(
Hands down, was the scariest of every zombies mode I've played, for the first few days of trying it out I always had to play with someone just due to the jumpscares and atmosphere alone.
this deserves so many more views!! this is fantastic!!
Glad you liked it!
@@Stanley557 you definitely need more recognition thanks for the zombies content
I am genuinely surprised you are under 1k subs I've watched this video all the way through (well listened to it while I drive for work) and the IW zombies one very entertaining. Keep up these great videos! Oh also I agree with you on the bigger zombies TH-camrs quality and being correct doesn't matter if you are first is there mindset... Unfortunately.
Glad you enjoyed it! I know the quality will more than speak for my subscriber count! I'll get big when I get big, I just like making high quality stuff!
@@Stanley557 right?! I'm glad you actually work hard and are true to your style of videos nice job.
@@Stanley557 after just watching the aw zombies video I can see a resemblance to the almighty Rizzo another favorite of mine! Good job hopefully that is a compliment
@@HotPocketEnjoyer it absolutely is. His style of review is very infectious.
You deserve so much more views for the amount of effort and video length and in-depth breakdown!
I wish ww2 zombies had better systems implanted, a rework of the perk system, and more inticing maps.
It would have warranted 8 total maps in my opinion if they had a better grasp on zombies as a whole.
In my opinion the this is the most intriguing artistic design and ambiance a zombies game has ever had.
Glad you enjoyed it! I had a blast making this video and honestly wish I went into the sound design and ambiance even more!
I love the darkest shore it’s atmosphere is impeccable
Man how do you only have that many subs you are a amazing TH-camr keep up the work man
Loved this game, my friends and I were terrible at zombies but we still had a blast because the EE had a shorter version for players who were not quite as good. We still got to experience the boss fight and cool moments. Honestly, that was a pretty good way to do it!
I LOVE this games approach to zombies I may have not like the gameplay but I loved the ideas sledgehammer had and the body horror is really good
This is exactly what I needed
Love these series
Glad you liked it! This video has been in production for quite a while and I'm happy to finally have it out!
@@Stanley557 probably the best one so far out of your little IW, exo, ww2 series
I try to improve with every big video I make. This is easily my best work yet and i can't wait to improve more and more
Great video man!
Woah Holy cow thank you so much!
Absolutely love WW2 zombies! Played a lot solo and co-op also! Have done all the challenges and still help people with them today! I never get tired of it!
Shot in the dark, but looking for help with the Easter eggs if you’re interested. I’ve beaten TFR but need help with the others. I’m on PS4.
Sorry brother I've got xbox
@@Stanley557 No worries. I was referring to James' comment. Thanks though.
The thing I love the most about WWII zombies is it's tone and atmosphere. Treyarch and IW zombies always have some level of jokey campiness to them. Even looking back at Verrukt, considered by many to be the scariest Treyarch zombies map, it still has the perk machines which are silly nonsense when you think about them, like why are these random vending machines in a mental asylum? Even Exo Zombies has its fair share of over the top nonsense, like Outbreak's main easter egg revolving around cooking a zombie meat burger.
WWII meanwhile ditches the campiness almost entirely and doubles down on the horror aspect, shifting Zombies in a much more dark and serious direction. The lighting engine Sledgehammer used does wonders, as do the new zombie models and animations. I like how the early maps try to ground everything with a sense of realism. Like, rather than getting perks by drinking super soldier serum mixed into soda, the perks are instead explained as electric impulses which rewire parts of your brain.
Loved this review!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I recently started playing WW2 zombies, and I like it more than expected. I’ve been playing zombies since BO1, and Treyarch is the GOAT when it comes to zombies. I like the enemy variety in WW2, and the fact it’s more horror themed with more grotesque, scary models.
Fun fact: In TST, the Smuggler doesnt die if you give him a packed weapon. He actually becomes an unlockable character, the Necromedic. Also, the russian soldier you contact in the opening becomes the Mountaineer!
Ooh I didn't know he becomes the mountaineer that's cool
That Noah joke got me Also just came across your channel and I really like it
I love COD WW2 Zombies.
It's underrated.
Right? It's super good!
im at the beginning of the video and when you said the 3rd entry my eyes lit up because DAYUM that's a lotta content
I'm so glad to hear you got so excited to hear! Comments like these make it all worth it
I've been rewatching your retrospectives and revisits of WW2, IW preparing myself (mostly mentally) of fully committing to getting all their respective quests done for the achievements... But it's made me wonder why you yourself don't make guides for the quests. It'd make life easier for me since I don't really like watching people for their bloated video guides that often miss details - however if you made genuine guides I'd watch them and it'd feel a little easier for me 🙏❤️
I suspect there's a good amount of viewers that'd like to see your take on quest guides n stuff too - especially with how much you love doing them solo.
...the whistling is just a cod version of the resident evil wolverine, same weakspot, both run at you when attacked, and deal heavy amounts of damage
0:10 "No doubt WWll is the most hated outta the 3 Non-Treyarch Zombies"
*Vanguard Zombie's coughing in the corner*
I think we can all agree that Vanguard's the most hated now
Oh absolutely, when I was writing the video Vanguard was just an embryo
Exo zombies would like to have a word with you.
Vanguard is made by treyarch
Amazing Video as always!

Hey glad you loved it!
Ik I’m really late here but here’s some tortured path context: the hilt is in that basement because the Bureau was moving it in a caravan, and was attacked. In the chaos, someone hid it there. In chapter 2, the zombies literally come from the water (canonically). They can walk underwater, even the ocean. That’s why one of Straubs lines in TFR mentions how they could “march across the English Channel”
Huh that water one i did not know actually, just seemed a little silly ij execution. Thanks for letting me know!
For those who care about the look of Darkest Shore, I want to inform you all tha Helgoland does look that shitty in reality
Glad we have an expert on the scene
for me the sword is one of the best wonder weapons, yes its not new but its efficient, also when the crystal is glowing red instead of bestowin zombies you could get one armor instead
You can also do an explosion with bestow power, and I love that you can stun a few zombies with R2 then click the melee button and send a directional geistkraft blast at a horde and instakill them.
In case anyone was wondering, on darkest shore the guy at the corpse gate is *roughly* saying "Please release me from this torment. I was only following orders"
I was not wondering but really cool!
Oh damn, I wasn't expecting you to reply!
Side note, after translating that dialog, it makes me appreciate that the map makers/writers didn't make him some stereotypical bad guy who's cursing you out the whole time, or tries to defend himself. He just accepts his fate and understands that he deserves it
Ww2 was my first zombies game and made me fall in love with the mode, sad to see it had such a controversal history
I always really liked the first map, never played the other ones but I liked it for what it was.
Since I was, and still, am not in a position to buy DLCs freely, I used to spam the only big map WW2 Zombies had, and I gotta say, it was amazing. It was challenging, it had a scary atmosphere and it was quite original. I loved the shove system, since it was high-risk reward
Really enjoyed this one, man's put out a two hour retrospective which he must've spent HOURS on and only has 667 subs? Hope your channel grows dude! :)
I calculated it took me roughly 100+ Hours. Glad you enjoyed it! Always got projects in the works so stick around!
Now THIS is epic
1:27:42 the safe step explained thank you so much 🙏
Of course brother, now get that dagger!
OK this guy is definitely underrated
My favorite part of WWII zombies was the design of the zombies themselves, they are truly terrifying. Reminds me of the film Overlord since that came out later, it was probably inspired most by Frankensteins Army. WWII is actually slept on I feel, I enjoyed the game
COD WWII came out free on playstation plus a while back, and definitely became my groups favourite zombies experience as we kept playing the first map over and over again. I think the more handholding approach is definitely a good thing in most cases, as my friends could never keep up with the more easter egg style objectives. :)
I honestly love ww2 zombies due to the fact that it adds the horror aspect back to cod zombies
Okay, so I know the jumpscare attempts on the final reich are cheap, but my first time playing the map on day one they actually got me (also I've somehow never know about the pack-a-punch ambush until now despite me having over 50 hours in ww2 zombies)
I loved this zombies as for me it sparked the same magic that the original black ops zombies did at the time, I didn't play since bo2 but it didn't take long for me to be hooked on the game, I think I reached master prestige 550 before I decided i was done with the game
I remember playing WWII zombies and I was addicted right off the rip very fun had a promising change of scenery in zombies and wasn’t bad as extinction off ghosts I really do miss WWII zombies
Extinction wasn't bad either. If anything it might've been arguably the best non-treyarch side Mode.
I liked this game. The zombies mode was dark enough that it kept my interest. The story and the Easter eggs weren't particularly great but the atmosphere was amazing
Your guide for ‘David meet Goliath’ to kill the Guardian single handedly got me the trophy thanks 😅😅
I'm not sure how but I'm glad I could help!
@@Stanley557 Just using frontline and the M2 Carbine and spraying him when he jumps down haha
My fav part about this game is all the characters you can unlock, my fav character is the cavalier.
I wish I had more time to attempt the character challenges honestly. A lot of them seem really cool. Although some of those Darkest Shore challenges are insane
@@Stanley557 They are cool, for example the smuggler is the necromedic unlock-able character and the Russian on the radio in shadowed throne is the mountaineer. If you want help my psn is appelman1. I almost have all of them. I could show you some too for a video if you want.
@@janvermanen just had someone bring up the Necromancer to me yesterday! And sadly I'm all on Xbox but appreciate the consideration though
@@Stanley557 Cool :) Me and a friend have a little community of 30 that plays a lot of ww2 zombies. The video files of straub are really cool too, if you don't wanna collect hem here is a link th-cam.com/video/TQ8xwixic2o/w-d-xo.html Radaustin27 has some cool story videos too about ww2 zombies. I just bought the iw season pass on sale and om really excited for that zombie experience :)
