Honestly respect too those 2 soldiers when we first met Menendez. 1 soldier tried to get the kids to stay back and away from what could have been a gun fight. And the other one didn't hesitate to jump on a grenade
actually, no, Makarov's first appearance was technically in COD4: MW, if u played MW3 (2011) it is revealed that Makarov (and Yuri) were in the car that helped Zakhaev escape during his failed assassination attempt carried out by Lieutenant Price (his rank was Lieutenant at the time) and Captain Macmillan.
Ok, but that's not technically an appearance because they most likely did not even have Makarov in the works around the time of CoD4 MW since Zakhaev was the main villain in focus. Truthfully, the first "appearance" for audiences across the globe is "No Russian" in CoD MW2.
My theory is that because of the angle of his face at the moment of firing, the bullet didn't fully go into his head. It probably went through his skull, destroying his eye, but missing his brain.
Well the magnum went through hesh first so it was less deadly to rorke and given he was tortured In a rain forest he could probably hold his breath way longer than most people
My list of Villains: All time favourite: Irons (AW) Scariest (especially cuz we're getting closer to that with each day): Corvus (BO3) Badass: Rorke (Ghosts) Went out with a bang (literally): Salen Kotch (IW) Breath taking: Makarov (MW3, the first one) Mind blowing: Menendez (BO2) Bulls-eye: Sherperd (MW2, the first one)
@@ramblinnernd5905 (SPOILER WARNING) Oh, technically at the end of the campaign you have the option to help or lie to Adler (help is where you go to the Solovetsky Island and destroy the array to not let Perseus broadcast the nuclear detonation codes) or lie (where you go the the array in Duga where you ambush your old team with Perseus and you kill everyone from your old team and broadcast the nuclear detonation codes)
They did he just didn’t have a big part at all, super disappointing cause it was so interesting having all the character depth in the og and then nothing now
I absolutely love how they thought "why just shoot Freisinger, when there's a barrel of fuel right here and we have a lighter?" No punishment is too harsh for a Nazi.
I replayed BO2's campaign over 20 times when I was 11 years old and I played it an extra 3 times again at 23, and I never notice the child soldiers behind Menendez's men at 6:12. They don't make COD like that anymore.. That's insane.
Do you think Vanguard and Modern Warfare Reboot series are connected to Black Ops Timeline? Because Imran Zakhaev is appeared in Black Ops Cold War, and Perseus flag is appeared in MWIII
Yeah, Modern Warfare reboot takes place in the same timeline as Black Ops 1, 2, and Cold War. Perseus flag in MWIII looks like an easter egg. Vanguard? 🤔
OMFG it’s been like 8 or 9 years since I played a cod console game and I haven’t seen any newer ones but 08:32 …… This is what games look like now? When the heck did this happen
"The American said not to move. Heh. He thinks he's in control, but he is not. Americans know nothing about loyalty. Maybe we should show him." Kamar de los Reyes' delivery on Menendez's lines was absolutely flawless, definitely my favorite CoD villain they've ever written. May he rest in peace.
Makarov is always the death I find the most satisfaction in. The way Price is struggling to get up, but once Yuri is down Price sees red and goes all out, killing Makarov in a way that probably could have gotten himself killed too. Of course the cherry on the cake is the iconic cigar after.
2:57 Yuri could’ve killed Makarov if he didn’t miss his shots. I always thought Makarov was a little invulnerable in this scene but rewatching this now I notice the details
While I really really love the death of MW2 Sheperd (that bastard deserve it) and te fact that's a whole journey of revengance, I like too see MWIII ones. That mf should be sent to shadow realm when he can't even think that he's gotta be. Always make up a move that the opposition not gonna know.
As a marine the one thing that just made me petty af about advance warfare was the fact that Pfc have blood stripes, you don’t earn tho on your trousers till you pick up corporal, also he’s a marine not a soldier you never call a marine a soldier that’s extremely disrespectful
Yeah but we can easily figure out the main villain The main villain either shows up alot eg Hassan from Reboot Mw2 showing up in about 4 missions total Or the main villain doesn't die easily eg Rorke from Cod ghosts surviving a whole revolver shot
And it's really...interesting, how it turmed out that way. How the franchise went from being a heartfelt(if technologically constrained) presentation of historical war, to becoming a marvel-esque action adventure format. And hey, you can't knock it, the format proved to sell so well after all.
Oh that hurts watching Shepherd flicks the revolvers Cylinder In, him being a general that’s the last person I’d expect to see them do that to a revolver.
I love the fact that makarov always wears gloves when he’s killing people, showing that he truly won’t get his hands dirty and always try’s to manipulate people into thinking they did.
Nothing beats the modern warfare ending with Zakhaev for me it was my first cod that started it all…sad to see where the game lead too considering the raw passion the earlier cods showcased. Feel bad for the younger guys who didnt get to experience the cod community at its height when clans like FaZe were being born into the spotlight etc. huge ark in gaming and I dont think it will ever be touched again anytime soon. R.i.p cod 2007-March 10, 2020 (warzone ruined it)
It’s a shame about what the actor Kevin Spacey did but you can’t deny how great his performance here was. Man I just wish there were more missions where you play as an operator of Atlas and being able to side with them half way through. They’re legit my favorite faction in CoD.
So, is Rorke remaining alive and alternate ending? Or is it like that all the time because on every playthrough of mine he's dead and Hesh says "look Logan, we did it"
it would have been cool if during iron's death after he says "mitchell! i gave you that arm! i gave you a second chance" mitchell goes, "here! you can have it back!"
Infinite Warfare is the MOST criminally underrated Call of Duty. The campaign in this game was awesome. Especially with the extra difficulty levels you get after beating it. The multiplayer was pretty good too. The movement, gunplay and hitmarkers were smooth. I don't understand why jetpacks get so much flack.
rorke surviving might be the crazy especially since he took a whole magnum shot to the chest point blank range
Yup he’s strong
Ghosts cannot die
Well if pay close attention the bullet also went through hesh aswell but he also survived
He’s like a man in hell who could never be burned.
And was underwater for 2 minutes!
Its crazy considering the fact that Menendez has a totally different appearence. Thats what made BO2 so good

The best part is that Menéndez knew they were going to do that.

it tripped me out when I found out that Simon was just a ghost member like Ajax at the time.
8:25 I like how irons looks just like Kevin Spacey, the actor who plays him
👍
The same goes for admiral Briggs in bo2.
I think we all instantly clicked shoot when presented with the option of killing or sparing menendez
That leads to a working class revolution so that’s actually pretty based lol
12:27 kneel before admiral kotch.
Infinite is so underrated. One of the best campaigns in my opinion.
Mars eternum
I read that as "Admiral Krotch"

No punishment is too harsh for a Nazi.

Yeah the damn cliffhanger was annoying cause, no 2
they cancelled ghosts 2 to make advanced warfare
@chsh8397 why though cause, cliffhanger
The four horsmen are legendary, great additions to cod
Corvus is the must dangerous villain
Agreed
Ppl tell me menendez is worse but trust me corvus can hack ppls minds
And he isn't even a living being like every
5:16 he's possible alive
6:42 he's possibly alive
6:55 he's definitely still alive

They don't make COD like that anymore.. That's insane.
I still want to see a sequel to Ghosts story.
Same
I like shepherd dude straight up betrayal everyone
Funny thing for Kotch is you can press the melee button and the knife will go through
I unlocked personal decorator on BO3 and I still couldn't tell you who the main villain is
It’s technically Corvus but that shit was so fucking insane it makes no sense
That game was a damn fever dream.
Corvus is because I think it’s some neurological link that went wrong and started turning ppl into the villains or something along those lines
how does WW2 look better than the modern games
Because they're fucking the franchise up
Cuz it's ww2
They look similar
In my opinion every time they use CGI it aways looks stunning but yeah WW2 it's beautiful man
Because they had a really good studio behind the cinematics, major motion picture level.
Say what you want about Infinite Warfare, but you can't deny that Salen Kotch's introduction was one of the best in the whole series
Ehhh
Real.
Bo2 Raul Mernendez was the best villiam with the best storie and character arc

I've only played since MW3, and ending the campaigns with Makarov and Irons' deaths in MW3 and AW respectively were satisfying af
To me and this is just my opinion, mw2019 was the last decent campaign and cod. Cold war was too short but it was ok
but where's Perseus from BOCW? you didn't put him in because he had only one appearance?
Yep. Perseus first appears when you betray Adler in the alternate ending.
That’s not Perseus
