Argh! Seeing as how this takes place before modern warfare, chances are the US had already moved out the nukes out of Europe after the fall of the USSR.
@Silent One Adler is probably concerned that Bell will want to get some amount of revenge for everything the CIA did, so he wanted to kill him. I guess Adler had a good amount of respect for Bell though, and because of this he decided to take him elsewhere and kill him himself instead of leaving him to die. Bell caught on, though, so he tried to defend himself. this definitely is the canon ending as both likely shot and killed each other, seeing how neither man shows up in BO2 (obviously).
Let's be realistic, even for mason, Hudson, woods, and all the badass soldiers from cod. None of them would have survived fighting that many man and bullets.
I really like the detail that immediately after you decide to lie to Adler his name goes red to signify he is now the enemy. I find it even more nerving how he states that "Your still one of us" just a few seconds after, almost like a verbal kick to gut for the player's deception.
Exactly what I thought when I got to that point playing the game. I felt horrible when Adler said that. Good thing my first playthrough was the good ending.
@@cockashe1363 Adler wasn’t bad though. It’s hard to explain but Adler knew Bell would turn on the U.S. at some point. He was brain washed by Perseus and used as an asset. The CIA gave him a false identity in order to make them there asset for good reason but Bell was so badly brain washed by the Soviets that in the back of his head, he would turn on them. So Adler was essentially tieing up loose ends.
@@UsamaBeenHidin I'm pretty sure bell was Soviet in the first place, he was brainwashed by the CIA to help them. But I think Adler realised that the brainwashing/conditioning might wear off and the Bell after that might not actually be their ally. Either that or the CIA asked him to tie up loose ends
@@bingus6437 nukes hidden in the world by America, Adler says they’re there for defense but he’s not the one that determines that. Perseus could’ve just leaked the information and location of the nukes but blowing them up is a way to prevent American government cover up
remember when the USSR deployed nukes to Cuba ?? US went nuts why should the USSR be happy with nukes on their door step ? the US is the one and only country that used Nukes in War and that is a fact ..
Honestly the ambush ending makes alot of sense to me. It makes me think of assassin's creed rogue. In rogue the assassin's treated shay like shit and showed that the assassin's were just as bad at times as the templars. I see alot of that here. There really isn't no good and evil especially during the cold war the West did things that were just as bad and sketchy as the Soviets.
The "Perseus" is refering that after you kill Adler in the first ending. The fact that they think that Perseus as an individual instead of a group. And then mock them afterward
@@ethanpullan3917 A character from the show “The office” pretty funny character. In the show he’s a weird, random character. The voice acting he does in the game is so much more serious lol
@@kwardak I just thought he sounded like Creed and checked imdb and it really is Creed lol. Also Black is Hudson's supervisor or something from what I understand
As I expected in a game that takes place in the Cold War era, as all intelligence agencies do: Manipulation, cover ups and betrayal is the game for the "greater good"
The call to go against the team really is a tough call to make, due to having to go after Woods and Mason. But still, I honestly prefer the Russian ending, seeing as Adler, even after Bell helps save the world, treats them as a loose end. Perseus however, is happy to see that Bell is still alive and in once piece, allows Bell to deal with Adler as they please, and even allows Bell to make the call to continue what they started as a way of almost saying 'I can't imagine what you've been put through, but like I said, this is your time for retribution. Whatever they put you through, you stayed loyal to us, you deserve this.' Considering the damage that is caused, yeah, realistically, it's bad. But to see the real brotherhood between Bell, Perseus and the whole wave of Russians that come to help Bell, instead of the fabricated brotherhood from Adler and the rest...
I feel like the ambush ending is the most satisfying in terms of character arc Think about it, Bell was one of the high brass in the Perseus ring, why in the absolute fuck would they just turn back on that for the sake of those who tortured, lied, and stole from them? It makes sense for their character to go back to their old ways once regaining their memories.
I chose the bad ending. Although it’s bad that the nukes go off and you kill your team, you need to realize something. From bells point of view he had a life and decided to help the union. He went through with it and he knows what he was going to do. It may seem bad but that is what he decided to do. With them brainwashing him and bell finding out what happened, i would believe that he would go through and stay loyal to his goal. If the roles were reversed(IK IT CANT CAUSE OF HELLA STUFF THAT WOULDNT HAPPEN BUT JUST SAY IT DID) and you were a us soldier and get brainwashed by the union and you find out, wouldn’t you stay loyal to the US as you were fighting for them in the first place? Just my thoughts personally.
Yes I know because Perseus will treat you like an uncle, welcome you while Adler cannot trust you and will kill you but the reason I like the good one is because it focuses on being on the good side, does not kill your favorite black ops characters and succeeding the mission.
Hed be sickened by the full us plans ... op Greenlight is a monsterous idea and they went through with it . His fathers music still haunts him but it was beautiful . Dimitri killed like a dog .

I'm remembering masons words from the bo4 multiplayer trailer , ["no one gives a Fuck about u , you're a number , an asset "" ] Reagan made all the right wing lobbyists trillions . Just a game...
I see people hating on Adler for betraying Bell at the end up but we have to understand he did it for the greater good, bell was a soviet after all and though he seemed reformed anything could've happened. I did feel betrayed but in the end I understood why Adler did what he did.
I mean if you look at Weavers background in BO1 it says that the government is hunting down Mason because he was apart of MK-Ultra and Woods/Hudson. The person that was supposed to hunt them was SAS John redacted.
@@extinctiongaming3556 Unfortunately Cold war didn't folow through on that ending detail of BO1. It was called Operation Charybdis, and I guarantee that's where BO2 would have been if it didn't have to take place in the future as well. I hoped this game would, and the beginning part was solid, but none of these endings are satisfying in the slighted
I completely understand why he did it and I would’ve probably done the same but I still picked the ending to kill him and everyone because they deserved it for what they did
So the CIA did to Bell what the Russians did to Mason in BO1? Reznov was definitely right when he said "The Flags may be different but the methods are the Same. They will use You, like they use Me."
Omg ladies gentlemen that is the mercy of the great leg dancing fever oh my goodness wel you look at that them bullets can’t touch his feet I bet that person who’s head is underground might be dancing to you can’t touch this
Seeing as how Solovetsky was awaiting "Perseus" signal to detonate, I honestly thought there's be an ending where you could run the Russian ambush into a CIA trap, kill Perseus AND stop the bombs in time, or let the ambush kill Adler and the rest of the team for what they did to Bell, then kill Perseus afterwards and choose to detonate the bombs and become the new leader of the Soviet revolution or cancel the detonation and have a mysterious ending where everyone dies except Bell who after a post credit mission goes after Hudson since he's as much of a mastermind in all of this as Perseus was
Wwe commentary would be like with the first ending like: “there you have it ladies and gentlemen this seems it’s going to be woods and his teams favor... wa-wait a minute look at this is bell switching sides.....oh shit woods finally gets killed in a battlefield I can’t believe what I’m even seeing jbl: goddamit no no! Why bell the crowd: boooooooo oh now goes mason his body flying backwards and landing on his stomach like he just failed the dm’s. Booker t: that shit was gangsta. Jbl: what well happen next on raw. What does this even mean now. Micheal: I don’t know but the fans may be crying 😢.
Yeah they basically revealed that they would nuke the entire world just so that they can work for "mother russia", like c'mon do the right thing for Frick's sake.
@@ghostssquad6187 I know but I’m just saying in an alternate timeline, if we DID kill Woods and Mason in Cold War, Black ops 2 would never have happened, meeting with Savimbi would not have happen, Section wouldn’t exist.
If you can sneak past Mason, Woods and Lazar, you can execute them in an unique way. I did the mission 3 times to get them. First shoot 2 of them, and sneak past the third and kill him from behind.
Wait what no one realizes us that you got the ending where both Park and Lazar died the first time. Pretty epic. I've heard few people have gotten it so far.
I find this campaign quite entertaining it really points out how thin the line of good and bad really is. In my opinion all sides in this have their fair share of evil. I find it interesting that a lot of people are trying to pick a side as inherently good despite the point of the story, while everyone can see whats wrong with persues's plan by killing millions of civilians it seems that people are quick to ignore how inherently immoral the US sponsored plan to put the nukes there to begin with is. Its basically we'd rather slaughter millions of civllians than let them fall under communist rule, and as pointed out what you are really doing is covering up the CIA planning mass genocide and the "saving the world" part is completely secondary. You can argue about the politics that the end justify the means or whatever but if you're killing millions of innocents making a sacrifice on their behalf with no choice given then what you have protected isn't freedom, its just the illusion of freedom. On a side note tho Bell as a character might have had their memory taken but dont forget they were a close ally of perseus. You can have no doubt that they had done some f'ed up shit. As far as i see this aspect if you get involved in plans of mass genocide you are fair game for this stuff
i know it would be difficult. but imagine if they made the next black ops cold war have 3 different story lies that all lead from these endings... the the one you kill Addler is the story of you and the Soviet Union bringing down the west.
Anyone else realize when you go into Perseus room before going to the computer, look around and you’ll see sticky notes referring to BO1 saying “Why can’t I remember” and “PAIN PAIN PAIN” and “Who am i?”, etc.
@whiskey-Hotel I think they both killed each other at the same time i don’t know but when I saw it I was like bull shit lol 😆 but hey let’s see what happens or if there’s theories of what could happen to bell or something
@@mxhir but then why is Adler playable after the campaign in multiplayer? And see in cod modern warfare 2019,we all assumed that Alex is KIA in Barkov's factory but he returned with his prosthetic leg in the multiplayer/warzone after the campaign and he didn't die there. Maybe the same case here too, then Bell should also be a playable character in the multiplayer if they both died.
@@mxhir I think Adler is alive and if you check fandom wiki page of Russell Adler, his status says "Unknown/KIA" and when it says death location, it gives the location "Krai, USSR", besides this it's written "non canon, player determined",so I am not sure about Adler and by the way my main question to treyarch is........... Where is William Bowman??!
@@gensumm Bell can be of any gender or nationality so it would be kind of hard to implement a non-static character. Adler however has a fleshed out character model.
Rumor has it that *you can't kill Woods* in the non-canon ending. It is said that that was a clone of Woods (like with Fidel Castro) and the real one is hunting Bell down after Alex Mason's death.
Good ending: Alder: Nice work son...but the thing is?....The cold war was rigged from the start. Bad ending: Perseus: COMRAAAAADE! IT HAS BEEN TOO LONG! DUVAI, WE HAVE SEMECHKI, SASHLIK, KOMPOT - BABUSHKA COOKING!
I expected Mason and Woods to have respective Healthbars and strong enough AI to down russians very easily, and forcing you and Perseus to deal with them yourselves while whoever survived Cuba deals with the other soldiers with the Marines However, seeing that the Modding community of the games, this too shall be possible
8:00 dude, the words Mason says, just broke me, if you have been following the story since BO1 you'll understand. Thank God this one is not the real final...
Wait so... they gave Bell a new identity, but they just gave him the names of other guys that we're already working for them and interacted with Bell repeatedly? Was there a third name besides Woods and Mason?
is it me or do the mason and woods characters look nothing like the old ones like wtf even are the voice lines and voice actors for these characters in this game smh shouldve just stuck with the old voice actors

Seeing as how Solovetsky was awaiting "Perseus" signal to detonate, I honestly thought there's be an ending where you could run the Russian ambush into a CIA trap, kill Perseus AND stop the bombs in time, or let the ambush kill Adler and the rest of the team for what they did to Bell, then kill Perseus afterwards and choose to detonate the bombs and become the new leader of the Soviet revolution or cancel the detonation and have a mysterious ending where everyone dies except Bell who after a post credit mission goes after Hudson since he's as much of a mastermind in all of this as Perseus was
Wwe commentary would be like with the first ending like: “there you have it ladies and gentlemen this seems it’s going to be woods and his teams favor... wa-wait a minute look at this is bell switching sides.....oh shit woods finally gets killed in a battlefield I can’t believe what I’m even seeing jbl: goddamit no no! Why bell the crowd: boooooooo oh now goes mason his body flying backwards and landing on his stomach like he just failed the dm’s. Booker t: that shit was gangsta. Jbl: what well happen next on raw. What does this even mean now. Micheal: I don’t know but the fans may be crying 😢.
I. Am. Dead. 😂😂😂😂
The amount of people who say they're fine with blowing up half the world as an ending is astonishing here
Yeah they basically revealed that they would nuke the entire world just so that they can work for "mother russia", like c'mon do the right thing for Frick's sake.
i liked how for once you can chose a "bad guy" ending in a game like this instead of always being the good guy
"Some of us cross the line to make sure that line stays in the morning"
love this line
Fun fact: in the last mission no matter which ending you get your character model is actually stone from multiplayer
My theory: bell is stone, he survived and changed his name
For the second time in cod history You kill mason
And for that, Black ops 2 never happened
@@L3oT1g3r- the ending were you tell the truth is cannon so only bell and Adler die
@@L3oT1g3r- black ops 2 did happen The ending where woods and mason die is not canon the ending where u don’t lie to Adler is canon
@@ghostssquad6187 I know but I’m just saying in an alternate timeline, if we DID kill Woods and Mason in Cold War, Black ops 2 would never have happened, meeting with Savimbi would not have happen, Section wouldn’t exist.
If you can sneak past Mason, Woods and Lazar, you can execute them in an unique way. I did the mission 3 times to get them. First shoot 2 of them, and sneak past the third and kill him from behind.
Seems like people in cars in CoD next to villains, tend to be important characters later down the line.
Ha i get it
Yeah cuz Yuri and makarov and uhhh anyone else?
@@CAPTAINBENDY_1129 Arash kadivar and bell?
@@balashibuyeeter2704 .......Wow im dumb
If you don't contact perseus men when betraying Adler and send him to Duga that's how you get the ending where he kills you
Wait what no one realizes us that you got the ending where both Park and Lazar died the first time. Pretty epic. I've heard few people have gotten it so far.
He also failed to stop Aldrich. I just think he had a skill issue
I find this campaign quite entertaining it really points out how thin the line of good and bad really is. In my opinion all sides in this have their fair share of evil. I find it interesting that a lot of people are trying to pick a side as inherently good despite the point of the story, while everyone can see whats wrong with persues's plan by killing millions of civilians it seems that people are quick to ignore how inherently immoral the US sponsored plan to put the nukes there to begin with is. Its basically we'd rather slaughter millions of civllians than let them fall under communist rule, and as pointed out what you are really doing is covering up the CIA planning mass genocide and the "saving the world" part is completely secondary. You can argue about the politics that the end justify the means or whatever but if you're killing millions of innocents making a sacrifice on their behalf with no choice given then what you have protected isn't freedom, its just the illusion of freedom.
On a side note tho Bell as a character might have had their memory taken but dont forget they were a close ally of perseus. You can have no doubt that they had done some f'ed up shit. As far as i see this aspect if you get involved in plans of mass genocide you are fair game for this stuff
This campaign sucked so hard, how is it Entertaining at all?
It revealed what I knew all along, that the Cold War turned an entire generation evil.
Damn I knew where that good ending was going when alder took us to a beautiful settinng. He was going to put us down like the family dog
24:41 that dead soldier is having a rave even in his death
i know it would be difficult. but imagine if they made the next black ops cold war have 3 different story lies that all lead from these endings... the the one you kill Addler is the story of you and the Soviet Union bringing down the west.
Anyone else realize when you go into Perseus room before going to the computer, look around and you’ll see sticky notes referring to BO1 saying “Why can’t I remember” and “PAIN PAIN PAIN” and “Who am i?”, etc.
when you copy Bioshock's homework
Would you kindly
It do be like that
We need more of this kind of campaign in the next COD
I just realize that if you go with ambush, or lie, you're creating a time paradox....
I love when you kill Woods and Mason and Park/Lazar they do ragdalls
where does helen park die?
why did he kill Bell in the end?
same as what a general once did, tying up loose ends
plus killing Bell probably saved a lot of ink for the CIA reports
Didn't want to take any chances
Bell is enemy bro didn’t u see
Check the last part
Watch MKiceAndfire then u will see mate
@whiskey-Hotel I think they both killed each other at the same time i don’t know but when I saw it I was like bull shit lol 😆 but hey let’s see what happens or if there’s theories of what could happen to bell or something
The first ending is based
Wdym?
@@noggy3133 Look at the very end of this video and you'll see why.
Something I love is that after you choose Duga, Adler and the other CIA agents' names are Red. Amazing little touch.
“It was never personal” gave me flashback to my home boy ghost 😪😭😭😭😭🤯
In the canon ending, no one dies except Bell.
Canon ending is when Bell and Adler kill eachother (truth ending)
Thats why you dont hear them in black ops 2
@@mxhir but then why is Adler playable after the campaign in multiplayer? And see in cod modern warfare 2019,we all assumed that Alex is KIA in Barkov's factory but he returned with his prosthetic leg in the multiplayer/warzone after the campaign and he didn't die there. Maybe the same case here too, then Bell should also be a playable character in the multiplayer if they both died.
@@mxhir or maybe you're correct and maybe Adler survived that shot and returned in multiplayer... Maybe he's alive
@@sanjoybmk8115 its because Bell is a customized character and not eveyone plays campaign
@@mxhir I think Adler is alive and if you check fandom wiki page of Russell Adler, his status says "Unknown/KIA" and when it says death location, it gives the location "Krai, USSR", besides this it's written "non canon, player determined",so I am not sure about Adler and by the way my main question to treyarch is........... Where is William Bowman??!
Idk how others feel maybe I’m trippin but the way this COD was written might have earned its place in one of the best call of duty campaigns
i think its safe to say bell was the one who died in the 2nd ending
We dont know if both died or what its an open ending ;)
@@AlphajorThundercock but adler is in multiplayer while bell isnt
@@gensumm Bell can be of any gender or nationality so it would be kind of hard to implement a non-static character. Adler however has a fleshed out character model.
@@GremlinHunter right thats a good point
@@gensumm Bell uses the Stone model from multiplayer
Hmmmmm
If you chose to Sid with Perseus you are a monster. Still a shame that it’s canonic that Adler kills bell.
Mason is my favorite character yet I still laugh the way he was pushed by the force of the impossible kill barrier after it's been broken
Rumor has it that *you can't kill Woods* in the non-canon ending. It is said that that was a clone of Woods (like with Fidel Castro) and the real one is hunting Bell down after Alex Mason's death.
Adler's like Shepard's long lost family member or something because they're both monsters who betrayed the protagonist
So Black Ops Cold War and MW are confirmed to be in the same universe since we have Imran Zakhaev in the game?
Yup
Yeah even the old and rebooted MW
Wait, so when we kill zakhaev, MW4 becomes non-canon?
@@pheonixnova4383 no because mw got rebooted so the rebooted universe and black ops are connected not the mw trilogy
@@johnperez5636 oh yea
Good ending:
Alder: Nice work son...but the thing is?....The cold war was rigged from the start.
Bad ending:
Perseus: COMRAAAAADE! IT HAS BEEN TOO LONG! DUVAI, WE HAVE SEMECHKI, SASHLIK, KOMPOT - BABUSHKA COOKING!
Adler: Did You Stop Perseus From Detonating The Nukes?
Bell: Yes I Did Sir
Adler: "Good. That's One Less Loose End." *Shoots Bell & Burns Him Alive*
I expected Mason and Woods to have respective Healthbars and strong enough AI to down russians very easily, and forcing you and Perseus to deal with them yourselves while whoever survived Cuba deals with the other soldiers with the Marines
However, seeing that the Modding community of the games, this too shall be possible
24:38 that ragdoll lmfao
Bro died from the explosion so hard, he got stuck in the ground and start twitching lmao
Man from 0.10 till 0.40 was really thinking bout his whole life 😂
Nice vid❤️
A world with two super powers will become a world with one:
THE SOVJET UNION
You know what the really cruel thing is?
The only time I really wanted to betray Adler.. was AFTER he tried to shoot me.
Patriot ending: “He’s too dangerous to be left alive!”
Soviet ending: “What’s up Comrade, how have you been!”
8:00 dude, the words Mason says, just broke me, if you have been following the story since BO1 you'll understand. Thank God this one is not the real final...
Whatever it is FOR THE MOTHERLAND FUCKER
Now i know how the game ends and i didnt want to
This entire game was a moral gradient
Even the text color of Adler's name changing from blue to red is chilling.
Am I the only one who finds Black being voiced by CREED BRATON just feels weird?? Does anyone else notice and feel this way?
Two Frank Woods? Am I missing something?
You can create your own identity at the start, your first and last name, in which this guy chose Frank Woods.
WHAT WAS THAT RAGDOLL AT 24:30
Anyone pay attention to the body freaking out at 24:42
Wait so... they gave Bell a new identity, but they just gave him the names of other guys that we're already working for them and interacted with Bell repeatedly?
Was there a third name besides Woods and Mason?
So wait in the ending were the both of you pull out your pistols, can you shoot him back or is this how the scene is suppose to play?
it's how it plays. no loose ends
Its a open ending soo we dont know if adler or Bell survived or both died
@@prabeshgurung1067 'loose' and 'ends' are my two least favourite words ever
The first ending its absolutely the best
is it me or do the mason and woods characters look nothing like the old ones like wtf even are the voice lines and voice actors for these characters in this game smh shouldve just stuck with the old voice actors
Nothing in common with the old ones. They look and feel empty in bocw, just to do players’ goosebumps
Mason just looks a bit off compared to bo1 and 2
Um Woods sounds like woods still there’s a lil difference woods looks the same when he was younger same with Mason
@@alyx007 Look at the face models from Bo1 to cold war and tell me that
