That he will not allow any of his troops to harm any Panamanian citizen who attempts to capture Noriega on their own.

It's amazing how black ops mixed real life with fiction. It's just amazing. Compare the whole first game and the old missions from black ops 2, you'll see

Just a fun fact, we weren't allowed to invade North Vietnam. If we did the entire Vietnam War would've been like the Invasion of Panama, quick and forgotten.
@@jdools4744technically, in conditions of countless millitary operations and keeping yourself in a good form trough daily amount of millitary training it is possible to still be able to be effective even in almost 60, and that's that kind of life woods and mason lived
Imagine this. You were the commanding officer of Woods during the Korean War. Fast forward to 1989, you've retired and are already in your mid 60s and you find out your private, now sergeant, is still on the front lines in the Invasion of Panama 36 years after the war.
I like how Black Ops 6 added a lot of references to Black Ops 2. Woods did mention Menendez and still feels guilty for shooting Alex Mason and still denies Russel Alder being the CIA Mole.
"What're you looking so smug about?" What's going on here?!" "No, no no no." "MASON!" "Fool." Being honest no matter how many times i play the campaign that scene is still sad
For those who don't know Manuel Noriega was a real drug kingpin who once had power over Panama's underworld back in the day until he was captured by US forces and put into custody at Guantanamo Bay prison in Cuba was serving his sentence.
Lemme fix this a bit, he had a deal with the CIA where he would sell information of Cuba to the US for money and to be left alone, but they discovered that he was playing both sides and also selling USA's info to cuba, so he was declared a risk to USA's safety and let go (this happened around 1984-1988 In 1989 a US marine was killed in a checkpoint and a couple days later my country got invaded under the name "Just cause" and 4,000 civilians died Oh and he died long ago

My Dad took part in this invasion. His mission was to block out comms and his squad needed transportation and so he went up hill towards a farm and met a farmer who would give him Donkeys if my Dad paid. But my Dad threaten him and the story goes as he says. "Me and my guys invaded Panama with Donkeys"
The cutscene at 11:41 is the reason why I dont believe Mason canonically survives. If Woods had the wherewithal to shoot him in the leg thinking Hudson was lying, he wouldn't be kicking himself here
@@Sh23-hv7snapparently the new canon ending is now being mason and menendez dead, but the thing is... in an alternate ending when Mason was shot in the legs and menendez found out he was alive after 1989, he would have sent a lot of his men right after a wounded Mason, thats prob why Mason kept a low profile until Menendez was confirmed killed/captured
I can't believe how long it's been since this got released. I remember being up the night before it came out, and skipping school the next day to play the whole thing. Campaign and zombies. Simpler times
I always wondered. How did they manage to capture Mason so easily when he was around Navy SEALs? Did the PDF catch him alone and jump him? Did some SEALs work for Menendez and capture him?
At the Army Rangers checkpoint Mason Woods and Noriega went to the pier by themselves with Humvee, no soldiers or SEALs was coming with them. The pier was quite far from US military post. Plus Mason and Woods didn't know that Noriega betrayed them

When you capture Noreiga in the hotel room, If you managed to resist killing Krefchanko or however you say in a previous mission, Woods will mention that there moles in the CIA.
I just realized that assuming woods and mason were 20 during the assasination attempt on castro in 61, that means they are pushing 48 in this mission. Which makes me think why tf didn’t they just have new characters for this game.
I was kinda wondering the same thing. Why was David Mason there in Panama. Was he at a base where they had a neighborhood for families of American soldiers.
Panamenian here. I havent played COD but i know a bit of the story of americans in Panama There was an "american only territory" called La Zona del Canal, were there was militar bases and homes for american families. Americans there were called "the zonians" The desing of the houses in the cinematic are pretty similar to those houses real desing (named "barracas")
The sight of 24:18 scarred me for life bro, me the player shot Mason in the head, I was 10 years old and I couldn't believe what I saw with my own 2 eyes, people say its just a game but they dont understand, they never could and never will

Yo la disfrute muchísimo sobre todo la parte donde te toca emboscar a unos batalloneros, que mas molesta de todo esto es que muchos batalloneros que andaban con sus pistolas y fusiles dando tiros durante la invasión murieran y que ahora sus familiares anden haciéndose los santos pidiéndole dinero al estado diciendo que su familiar era "Solo un civil".
I'm Panameño and there's many things wrong about how the invasion happen here, first of all, we didn't fight back
And we don't Talk like Mexicans xD 4:04
Me too bro
@@worldofjacas21 ¿te refieres a que los civiles no contraatacaron; o también hablas de las extintas Fuerzas de Defensa de Panamá?
@@Ingriditza1908 ambas, mi papá era parte de esas fuerzas y mi mamá, debido a que mi mamá estaba con mi hermana mayor de 5 años en ese entonces no estaba trabajando, pero si mi padre y a ellos se les ordeno que cuidaran todo, pero debido a los bombarderos que usaron los estadounidenses, todos se retiraron y pidieron la retirada, por lo cual nunca combatieron, y donde vivía mi mamá y mi hermana, todo fue destruido
En el juego no cuentan como en el barrio del Chorrillo en panamá mataron y quemaron civiles las fuerzas de Usa
Cuentan lo que les conviene.
Pd: paraellostodossonmexicanos.
When you capture Noreiga in the hotel room, If you managed to resist killing Krefchanko or however you say in a previous mission, Woods will mention that there moles in the CIA.
Also if you collected the CIA memo in the following story mission (Time and fate), then mason mentions it as well
I just realized that assuming woods and mason were 20 during the assasination attempt on castro in 61, that means they are pushing 48 in this mission. Which makes me think why tf didn’t they just have new characters for this game.
Woods was born in 1930 and mason in 33... So they are actually almost 60 in this mission supposedly lol
@@samuelguti9143 they’re both 1933
This is where Pantheon comprises CIA in this mission
Getting out after school on a friday and going to my friend house to play some COD with some snickers, doritos and mountain dew
Timeless masterpiece.
imagine your place is being bombarded by rockets and yet you still have to do the sentry duty.
Imagine taking a shit and suddenly you’re getting bombed
Person getting stomped out at 16:55 is the same kids that tagged the humvee in the beginning at 4:04, right?
Reused models
Are you going to be getting the new Modern Warfare?
nah im gonna skip that after replaying every other cod recently
Yes he did he even called me on the p hone saying I HATE THE NEW COD 😆
Yes
@@CommanderLongJohn Why be so fucking toxic? And don't give me that whole "I'm trolling" bs.
AFGuidesHD understandable
Up until this day woods haven't had that beer
I was so disappointed
This is the Darkest mission in Call of Duty
@ABSOLUTAMENTE NADIE La de World at War es mejor.
20 years since this iconic mission
30 years god I feel so old
Crazy how time flies
19:00 When the comms go out. Hudson was already captured by them.
Yeah I think he was captured ever since the mission started, man it was fucked from the beginning.
The Black Ops games are sorely in need of a remaster.
My favorite mission out of any CoD.
How good the campaigns used to be back then...
this was the mission when i stop try to capture menendez and just try to kill him.
Top Tier writing in the og call of duty games man.Just unmatched
I was kinda wondering the same thing. Why was David Mason there in Panama. Was he at a base where they had a neighborhood for families of American soldiers.
Can someone explain how David Mason ended up there.
Panamenian here. I havent played COD but i know a bit of the story of americans in Panama
There was an "american only territory" called La Zona del Canal, were there was militar bases and homes for american families. Americans there were called "the zonians"
The desing of the houses in the cinematic are pretty similar to those houses real desing (named "barracas")
im telling you guys this is going to be the final mission for black ops cold war
Whos here after Blops6 😂😂😂
My dad was in Operation Just Cause he didn’t really say how was it but I would guess it would be dangerous and deadly with them
Woods: stay in cover!
'Dies' 😂😂😂
i love the little personal touches you put in such as zooming in on the lewd picture in the duffle bag
My homeland could use an Operation Just Cause right now...

🤔🤫😁😏
@@JonnyHorseman I feel for you man.
I already knew what country you were talking about without even reading the comment
@@deixos2224 Nice.
10:34 Why is he holding the M16?
Because they're American?
🇺🇸⚔️🇵🇦(1989-1990)
The Invasion of Panama
Gotta admit Raul Menendez is like Treyarchs Vaas, so gud he cant be replicated and any attempt to falls flat.
The sight of 24:18 scarred me for life bro, me the player shot Mason in the head, I was 10 years old and I couldn't believe what I saw with my own 2 eyes, people say its just a game but they dont understand, they never could and never will
damnnn 🤨
24:27 idk if anyone else knows this but at this moment when woods yells out "FUCK" if you play this mission right now, that word was removed and replaced with another groan for some reason and i have zero clue on why it was
14:31 "Stay in cover!" Woods says, as he gets his fucking head blown off
This mission alone is way better than Black ops 3 and 4 combined.
4:05 sonaban mas a peruanos junto con mexicanos en vez de panameños xD
jajajaja
Aa es q somos los malos 🤣🤣🇵🇦
Jaja
Jajaja
This mission right here was hilarious at the beginning XD. Especially with the teenagers trashing their vehicles XD
Give me a weapon. *gives weapon* what are you doing. You said weapon but not ammo. Fucking bad ass
1989, the last year of the Cold War, the last year of the true history... like if you borned that year.
1991 actually was the end
the start of the mission always gets me
The things I’d do to drink with them
@@bdjsjshhehehd8989 oh i was talking about the dinghy ride because it its the last mission in the past but it feels like modern times with the jets and little birds
