I remember playing this game for the first time and no joke, thought it was a horror game. This game was absolutely beautiful! Shame they don't make games like thus anymore
I felt the same as you, I was ten or 11 years old when the game passed me and some things shocked me but I liked it and when the movie and the Nazis came out it seemed strange to me but I ended up understanding it, great game
Nah what made this game horror and really scary was the first ever zombies map ever in history of call of duty was nacht def untoten this intro basic but very scary could never play that solo in the daylight neverming fucking night and I was 9 or 10 when around this time 12 years playing call of duty and proud of it coming up to 13... brings me back to simple times getting home for primary school Friday night getting on the game with the boys on co op campaign or multiplayer it’s actually making me right now rethink my whole past and now my future as I’m now realising I’m 20 inApril. Don’t know if anyone else agrees if I had unlimited wishes I’d ask for only one wish and to re-experience my whole gaming childhood the moment I played games up to the age of 9 waking up one day on Christmas to getting this game and the adrenaline and excitement build up to downloading it I actually wanna cry so bad how much good times are coming back ;(
@@scousegam3r565 nah I feel it dude, when I was younger I could not play the zombies. One of my older friends wanted to play and then tried to turn the lights off. I don’t think I have ever left my room faster.
Darkest Call of Duty ever, and damn how great it was, for once we had an accurate depiction of the horrors of war. In this game's campaigns, there were no heroes. Just a bloodbath and cruelty on all sides. Well done, Treyarch, well done.
I am from Russia, I have lived all my life in the city of Volgograd (Stalingrad). The mission from this game is dedicated to my city. In our city there are many traces of this brutal war. The game very well conveys the atmosphere of the war in Stalingrad.
A lot of people don't understand how insanely deadly the eastern front of the war was in WW2. You Russians lost more people in that one battle than the Americans did throughout the entire war. IT WAS A BLOODBATH! Much love my friend from America.

@Gangstabob716 exactly. Cod has been nothing but visuals since the franchise became popular with cod 4 and waw. Cod is an OUTDATED ps3 360 experience no matter how much they paint it up to look next gen.
This is the most well written mission in any first person shooter to date. This proves that video games are capable of having incredible narratives, and aren’t just full of mindless action.

Мой дед прошёл через это пекло. Я его плохо помню, был маленький. Помню только, что его спина была как поверхность Луны, вся в шрамах от осколков. Я даже боялся на его спину смотреть, она меня ребëнка пугала. И он очень не любил рассказывать о войне. Потом уже когда он умер, а я чуть повзрослел, бабушка рассказала, что пара осколков в нëм так и осталось, возле позвоночника не смогли вытащить, так и оставили.

Beating WaW on Veteran difficulty was one of the most difficult achievements I've ever completed in gaming. The enemies had unlimited grenades that all seemed to be guided by GPS honed directly to your position.
Facts im doing it this time with my brother Its still hard lol the Ambushes catch us off guard still. The Grenades were insane literally, and the closer you got to the enemy the more crazy the shoot outs were. I learned something new from it though Use smoke to Hide from MG gunner
So privileged to have owned and played this game and I won't even lie...I still play it today. Why? Because it's a masterpiece. It's uncensored in all its glory and still remains as one of the greatest WWII games ever made. Each mission, music, scenery dialogue and level design truly encapsulates the sheer brutality, horror, fear and chaos that was WWII and was not censored to hide the facts as the games are today. It felt more like a horror game than an action game because that's what WWII was....a real life horror story. A wonderful game and after all these years, I still proudly own my copy. Do yourself a favor, and play this game. You'll remember it forever.

One of the best campaign missions I've ever played. The atmosphere, the introduction, the music. Truly terrifying, I cried a few times growing up playing this mission thinking of all the men and women who died during this conflict. Never forget.
Конфликт говорил? Это Великая Отечественная Война Советского народа против Гитлеровской коалиции, против Европейского фашизма начиная с 1941 по 1945 гг. Слава России! Слава С.В.О. ZOV.
This is when CoD was at it’s peak. The setting, the music, everything made this game feel so special. Truly the best experience of how world war the second looked like on the worst front you could imagine - east and pacific Shame they didn’t put anything from the western front. I can only imagine how d-day would look like in WaW…
I'm pretty sure it was intentional. During this era wwII games had been done to death and people had played the D-Day invasion dozens of times in multiple different games at this point. It's part of what makes this game stand out, it covers conflicts that you didn't see much in games of that era.
@@DarkROSkull013 They did D-Day in CoD 1 AND 2 so by this time it was pretty overdone. D-Day would be pretty interesting to see but imagine a battle of the bulge on this game. Actually ANY Western US front on this game, you'd be able to drive tanks and man anti tank placements.
День-Д , это детская лирика по сравнению с тем, что творилось на Русских фронтах: Ржев, Вязьма, Москва, Ленинград, Киев, Сталинград, Воронеж, Смоленск, Брест, Курск и ещё очень много кровавых сражений, где счёт погибших с обеих сторон шел на миллион, большая часть Европы примкнула к Германии и воевала против нас и Французы в том числе и итальяшки,фины, хорваты, словенцы,румыны, венгры, болгары,бельгийцы, голландцы,датчане и т.д и т.п!🤫🤫🤫
I remember the look on my uncle's face when watching me play this mission, wondering if it had been a good idea giving this game to an 11 year old. Now im immersed in history and studying a bachelor's degree, this game set my future. Thanks uncle.
This game is so dark, I can't help but love it. I remember beating this game at like 2 am on a school night and then the zombies cut scene happened. I ran to my moms room because it scared me. Times were much simpler back then.
The start of this campaing was honestly something way different to all the stuff you see in all the current Cods, the way it portrayed the brutality and darkness of those times is something that we have no chance or very low chances of seeing totally remastered or in a movie, hands down the best cod in existence
This may be the single best opening cutscene/mission combo of all time. Transitioning from Reznovs speech describing the "brutality of their soilders" to seeing it play out in front of you is unlike anything cod had done before or has done since. Other than playing Nacht for the first time, seeing this fountain of death is the most memorable COD moment I've ever had.
Currently playing through this campaign again, plugged in my PS3 just to play it. Absolutely beautiful game, especially these sort of missions. Such an amazing game. Campaign, Multiplayer and the OG Zombies
@@osfama470 Скорее всего ты прав. В первой калде помню момент битвы за Сталинград, где на берегу говорят точно такую же реплику как из фильма "Солдат с винтовкой стреляет, солдат без винтовки следует за ним, когда солдат с винтовкой умирает, солдат без винтовки поднимает оружие и продолжает наступление". Дословно не помню, но примерно так было
"Dimitri we thought you were among the dead in the massacre at the square!" "He was. among them, but not one of them." His lines just always would hit different and I dont know why
How we went from this to vanguard I’ll never know. Heck even the weapon mechanics were better back then. Imagine if the graphics were closer to mw 2019. Or bf1.
theres something just more special and enchanting about the outdated, old graphics that gives scenes like these a different feel compared to the overdone and dramatic graphics of today. it provides a different kind of charm, i think its best that this campaign stays like this
i would say forget about changing the graphics of WAW entirely, it's perfect even to this day. the atmosphere would be ruined had a new graphic engine kicked in.
Still my favorite COD and my favorite mission in the series. WAW is an absolute masterpiece. From the campaign to the multiplayer, it was all so glorious.
Hands down the best Cod ever made. I feel for the new generation who didn’t get to play this when it was first released. Also love the influence from enemy at the gates for this scene.
This game aged so well I think. One of the best COD campaigns ever made, and one of the best multiplayers too. To think this one gave us the legendary zombies mode too as an after credits easter egg! What a phenomenal game! So many good memories!
I miss this game. I remember being a young teen playing the multiplayer for this game and playing so much that me and my friends would watch the leaderboards to see how high we got in them. I was top 100 in search and destroy.. miss those times!!
Мне очень нравится эта миссия, начало трагичное, твои товарищи мертвы. но ты выжил и тебе предстоит выбраться живым с центра опасности. Эти саундтреки дают такую незабываемую атмосферу страха, аж дух захватывает. Один не верный выстрел и ты с Резновым мертвы, снайперский поединок. Эта Call Of duty мне запомнилась как воспоминания с детства, помню как проходил её в 10 лет. Незабываемый страх и опасность... Спасибо Activision за самый лучший шутер за всё время про вторую мировую войну!
Reznov is voiced by Gary Oldman, who won an Academy Award for Best Actor in his portrayal of Winston Churchill in 'The Darkest Hour'. Just let that settle in
Gary Oldman is fantastic as an actor, he’s just so versatile and always captures the character he plays. one of the best actors of the last 20 years for sure
This brings me back dudeeeeeee! The achievement for this game that gave me the hardest time was ending the mission by sniping the dude at the end with a pistol. Game was a masterpiece!
Thank you so much for replaying the game! Today is exactly 80 years since the end of the Battle of Stalingrad. I myself am from Volgograd (former name was Stalingrad). That's just the wrong name. There was no 62nd Rifle Division in the Battle of Stalingrad, there was the 62nd Army under the command of Lieutenant General Chuikov. In memory of the exploits of this army, the central embankment of Volgograd is named, it is also the Embankment named after the 62nd Army.
I’ll never forget in 2009 walking into Howies game shack & someone was playing this mission & I stood behind him watching him play for the whole 15, 9 year old me was flabbergasted & couldn’t believe what I was seeing, it felt so real. Like I was the one playing. Now when I explain this intro to people they think im talking about a movie, I wish I could go back & play these games at their peak again
I remember playing this campaign over and over and it is still to this day top tier. The beautiful story telling of the Americans storming the beaches, and the Russians fighting through the streets and alleyways. There was horrific moments like in the fountain surrounded by your dead comrades and that moment sticks cause you're forced to be there for a decent amount of time where there's no talking, no shooting, just you in puddles of blood and your dead friends. Not only was this game action packed but it really showed how disturbing war was in many different ways and lot of the time it was subtle.
They never give people what they truly want. Just try to force feed us dog shit and call it steak. Remake the original COD’s we grew up with and loved. Thank you for this! :)
The switch in tone is amazing, going from running around with a bazooka, flamethrower and a grenade launcher while the Japanese are in the trees, in the grass running at you with bayonets. Then you go to this, massacres, going into buildings to avoid German patrols that’ll burn you if they find you, a single shot can alert any patrol in the area.
Best World War game ever hands down, a remastered of this game would be bought in a heartbeat, it wont happen but man can people only dream, one of the best Call of Duty games ever in my opinion
@@tobyelliott8282 No, that’s a false narrative and pandering to that audience does no real good. Those people that would complain wouldn’t buy the game or stop the sales in anyway.
@@jordanwebster1728 I agree, but they still wouldn't have the balls to use the same gore as WaW. There hasn't been a single gory cod since this game lol
Next time i stand at my grandfathers grave i will tell him about your regards butchering oodles and oodles of those russians, man with manga profile picture.
So many great fuckin memories playing this on my house's Windows XP desktop when I was a boy 🥲. I will never forget that hearing that haunting menu music for the first time all alone in the dark. This game made me have vast respect for those like my grandfather who fought in WW2. So much fun playing modded zombies even years after BO2 and other COD games were years past. I wish things could go back to the eay they were in 2009 😔.
Such a shame no game will EVER be this grim again like how it used to be. People became soft and things like this will never be a thing ever again. It is only a burning memory, even the mission in MW2 when you were ghilid up and had to sneak through the woods and the tall grass as tanks and men pass you.
Growing up my mum never let me play CoD games, but my dad did and this was one of his favourites and one he insisted I should play. I think understand why.
Some may frown at this in todays world, but things were different when I grew up playing this franchise; I can remember being 10-12years old, playing through this campaign for the first time…as a child, I would act as one of the soldiers and converse back and forth with Reznov and other main characters to really immerse myself in these famous battles. This mission is especially one of my favs ever; because of the close resemblance to a film called “Enemy at the Gates.” It’s sad the players of today in my opinion will never truly get that “Hype/Immersion” feeling of today’s CODs, because when these games came out EVERYONE wanted to play.
Жаль, что Резнов не дожил до наших дней и погиб в Воркуте. Я бы с ним с удовольствием выпил водки! А если серьёзно, то этого героя очень не хватает в последующих частях в русских компаниях. Культовый персонаж!
It is a pity that Reznov did not survive to this day and died in Vorkuta. I would love to drink vodka with him! But seriously, this hero is sorely lacking in subsequent parts in Russian companies. An iconic character!
@@Ninjaurban99 I translated what he says :Here it is/ It is a pity that Reznov did not survive to this day and died in Vorkuta. I would love to drink vodka with him! But seriously, this hero is sorely lacking in subsequent parts in Russian companies. An iconic character!
The first song that plays when they are crawling in the fountain, oh man, I don’t think any cod can replicate the feeling of rawness and atmosphere that WaW brings
This board was my favorite in the game, it made me feel like I was in the “Enemy At the Gates” movie for real. World at war such a fun game whether it was PVE or PVP. Certified classic.
This game got me through 8th grade(the single worst year of my school life). The multi-player was so intense and exhilarating plus missions with Reznov were so engaging and tactical.
All the veterans who fought in this terrible war, the greatest people, they saved people from Nazism, but of course Nazism in some countries remained, I give honor to the veterans who fought
Да, всё в Сталинграде было гораздо хуже: на одном этаже в комнатах по соседству могли буквально располагаться немецкие и советские солдаты. Бои шли буквально за каждую комнату, этаж, дом, улицу. Это был ад. Прибавьте к этому гражданское население - не все жители смогли переправиться через реку и соответственно эвакуироваться. Город почти полностью бвл стёрт с лица земли, руины.
I played this masterpiece when I was 13. It was way ahead of its time. I remember some of my friends were bragging about Resident Evil 4 back then. And I showed them this part of Call of Duty 5 and they were blown away by the realism and the amazing gameplay of it.
Two of the luckiest survivors of the classic COD goat series. I remember playing this back then, just like All Ghillied Up in COD4, and thinking, “Wow, i was almost killed by a huge barrage of enemies.” Petrenko and Reznov, especially Reznov, would play key to the victory in this game. All WW2 COD games, from back then, were the goat! So simplistic yet the most symbolic at showing the true cost of war.
The good old days of call of duty. I remember when the first one dropped and this franchise eventually took over everything especially after cod4 dropped, it even outshined medal of honor which was the first world at War game that blew up for ps1 and 2...sheesh I'm getting old.

One of the best campaign missions I've ever played. The atmosphere, the introduction, the music. Truly terrifying, I cried a few times growing up playing this mission thinking of all the men and women who died during this conflict. Never forget.
I liked brothers in arms as well. It was the time when veterans and historians took part in development process. So, it was semi- realistic
Конфликт говорил? Это Великая Отечественная Война Советского народа против Гитлеровской коалиции, против Европейского фашизма начиная с 1941 по 1945 гг.
Слава России!
Слава С.В.О. ZOV.
This is when CoD was at it’s peak. The setting, the music, everything made this game feel so special. Truly the best experience of how world war the second looked like on the worst front you could imagine - east and pacific
Shame they didn’t put anything from the western front. I can only imagine how d-day would look like in WaW…
I'm pretty sure it was intentional. During this era wwII games had been done to death and people had played the D-Day invasion dozens of times in multiple different games at this point. It's part of what makes this game stand out, it covers conflicts that you didn't see much in games of that era.
I think it's because they did D-day on the 1st game. But I agree. I'd like to see d-day on WaW.
@@DarkROSkull013 They did D-Day in CoD 1 AND 2 so by this time it was pretty overdone. D-Day would be pretty interesting to see but imagine a battle of the bulge on this game. Actually ANY Western US front on this game, you'd be able to drive tanks and man anti tank placements.
@@EldishRinger d-day in cod ww2 was in my opinion, the best
День-Д , это детская лирика по сравнению с тем, что творилось на Русских фронтах: Ржев, Вязьма, Москва, Ленинград, Киев, Сталинград, Воронеж, Смоленск, Брест, Курск и ещё очень много кровавых сражений, где счёт погибших с обеих сторон шел на миллион, большая часть Европы примкнула к Германии и воевала против нас и Французы в том числе и итальяшки,фины, хорваты, словенцы,румыны, венгры, болгары,бельгийцы, голландцы,датчане и т.д и т.п!🤫🤫🤫
I remember the look on my uncle's face when watching me play this mission, wondering if it had been a good idea giving this game to an 11 year old.
Now im immersed in history and studying a bachelor's degree, this game set my future.
Thanks uncle.
Rapaz aí botei fé!! 👏👏🙏🤘
This was my favorite mission in the game. I was 14 year old when I played this. Great memories.
Academy award winner Gary Oldman as Resnov, perfect level design and atmosphere, doesn’t get any better than this.
I never notice that! Thanks share the information.
@@johngriswold4303 lol, good point
This game is so dark, I can't help but love it. I remember beating this game at like 2 am on a school night and then the zombies cut scene happened. I ran to my moms room because it scared me.
Times were much simpler back then.
Lol how old were you when first playing
@@GTR24 Can't speak for him but I played this when I was 7 and I refused to play the zombie mode lmao
@@truereaper4572 never forget the first time I loaded into zombies, one of the best gaming moments ever!
The start of this campaing was honestly something way different to all the stuff you see in all the current Cods, the way it portrayed the brutality and darkness of those times is something that we have no chance or very low chances of seeing totally remastered or in a movie, hands down the best cod in existence
This may be the single best opening cutscene/mission combo of all time. Transitioning from Reznovs speech describing the "brutality of their soilders" to seeing it play out in front of you is unlike anything cod had done before or has done since. Other than playing Nacht for the first time, seeing this fountain of death is the most memorable COD moment I've ever had.
Currently playing through this campaign again, plugged in my PS3 just to play it. Absolutely beautiful game, especially these sort of missions. Such an amazing game. Campaign, Multiplayer and the OG Zombies
I so feel you! I have it too! So iconic
I wanna buy it but gamestop doesnt have these games anymore
Free dlc maps included, remember!)
@@ceramikxxx5882 Just get an Xbox. Most of the classics are backwards compatible, and look & play smooth.
@@sanandreasX which xbox?
0:00 Instant goosebumps already. I can't imagine all the pain these soldiers went through. So sad.
Oh yeah it’s really good when people actually hear their voices. Like how they are wounded and want to fight but can’t.
Can't imagine the pain to those who went to the war
@Varsity Athlete Almost 2 million combined casualties. The soviets suffered over 1 million alone.

World at war and Black Ops 1 have the best story telling and grittiness in any COD game. Legendary games.
Момент в самом начале миссии до мурашек пробирает
Посмотри фильм "враг у ворот" там точно такая же сцена. Правда я не знаю кто у кого идею украл
@@AlekseyPelколда у фильма
Ещё с самой первой части
@@osfama470 Скорее всего ты прав. В первой калде помню момент битвы за Сталинград, где на берегу говорят точно такую же реплику как из фильма "Солдат с винтовкой стреляет, солдат без винтовки следует за ним, когда солдат с винтовкой умирает, солдат без винтовки поднимает оружие и продолжает наступление". Дословно не помню, но примерно так было
Im played this game age 15 . Now im 24 what a good old days 😌
Mainin lagi kawan
I was 18 year old 2008 😎 this game is LEGENDARY 😎🤘🤘
And I'm gonna miss these old days
I played WAW at age 7, now I'm 17, I remember playing splitscreen with my dad, good times good times 😌
Broo very accurate. Aku pun dah 24 sekarang main codwaw masa form 3 juga hahahaha
Cod 5 campaign hits different, the ambience, the colours, the rawness, the characters. Best ww2 campaign still
cod 2 is better imo
@@talhaefebozyel4792 just because it has more missions. no game can match the emotons the ambient, the environment that WaW had.
@@talhaefebozyel4792 imo nah
This is the remaster we need. People put a lot on cod 4 setting the tone, but WoW was just of a launchpad as this one. Back to back 🔥
"Dimitri we thought you were among the dead in the massacre at the square!" "He was. among them, but not one of them." His lines just always would hit different and I dont know why
Best COD WW2 plot! I wish this game have a remake + expantion in many new stages 🙏
Hopefully we will get a remake someday..
I think it's the worst idea for everyone.
Can you imagine this game with iron crosses instead of swastikas?!
They’d ruin it, especially with all the woke bs in vandguard
Ojala este juego se merece mas una actualizacion mas amplia en cada mision
Facts
How we went from this to vanguard I’ll never know. Heck even the weapon mechanics were better back then. Imagine if the graphics were closer to mw 2019. Or bf1.
theres something just more special and enchanting about the outdated, old graphics that gives scenes like these a different feel compared to the overdone and dramatic graphics of today. it provides a different kind of charm, i think its best that this campaign stays like this
@@kiyoraka3537 A hybrid of the two would be interesting I think: the grittiness of the old with the tech of the new.
i would say forget about changing the graphics of WAW entirely, it's perfect even to this day. the atmosphere would be ruined had a new graphic engine kicked in.
Captain Price and Sergeant Reznov are the heroes of my youth
Still my favorite COD and my favorite mission in the series. WAW is an absolute masterpiece. From the campaign to the multiplayer, it was all so glorious.
Hands down the best Cod ever made. I feel for the new generation who didn’t get to play this when it was first released. Also love the influence from enemy at the gates for this scene.
also CoD 2 is influence from Band of Brothers

MW2 is better in my opinion but they are two completely different types of games. This game has aged like fine wine
This game aged so well I think. One of the best COD campaigns ever made, and one of the best multiplayers too. To think this one gave us the legendary zombies mode too as an after credits easter egg! What a phenomenal game! So many good memories!
I miss this game. I remember being a young teen playing the multiplayer for this game and playing so much that me and my friends would watch the leaderboards to see how high we got in them. I was top 100 in search and destroy.. miss those times!!
Also if anyone else remembers that I remember there being a clan called DE50!
Мне очень нравится эта миссия, начало трагичное, твои товарищи мертвы. но ты выжил и тебе предстоит выбраться живым с центра опасности. Эти саундтреки дают такую незабываемую атмосферу страха, аж дух захватывает. Один не верный выстрел и ты с Резновым мертвы, снайперский поединок. Эта Call Of duty мне запомнилась как воспоминания с детства, помню как проходил её в 10 лет. Незабываемый страх и опасность... Спасибо Activision за самый лучший шутер за всё время про вторую мировую войну!
Imagine that you are in the middle of the controlled area, only you and a soldier from your battalion, oh my god, I was dying in a heartbeat.
Reznov is voiced by Gary Oldman, who won an Academy Award for Best Actor in his portrayal of Winston Churchill in 'The Darkest Hour'. Just let that settle in
Gary Oldman is fantastic as an actor, he’s just so versatile and always captures the character he plays. one of the best actors of the last 20 years for sure
This brings me back dudeeeeeee! The achievement for this game that gave me the hardest time was ending the mission by sniping the dude at the end with a pistol. Game was a masterpiece!
Thank you so much for replaying the game! Today is exactly 80 years since the end of the Battle of Stalingrad. I myself am from Volgograd (former name was Stalingrad). That's just the wrong name. There was no 62nd Rifle Division in the Battle of Stalingrad, there was the 62nd Army under the command of Lieutenant General Chuikov. In memory of the exploits of this army, the central embankment of Volgograd is named, it is also the Embankment named after the 62nd Army.
"Mark my words, Comrade... One day things will change"
- Reznov
This awesome scene is quoted from the famous Hollywood movie "Enemy at the Gate" It's so nice.
Скорее так отвратительно
I’ll never forget in 2009 walking into Howies game shack & someone was playing this mission & I stood behind him watching him play for the whole 15, 9 year old me was flabbergasted & couldn’t believe what I was seeing, it felt so real. Like I was the one playing. Now when I explain this intro to people they think im talking about a movie, I wish I could go back & play these games at their peak again
This game damn near made a normal ww2 shooter feel like a horror game with atmosphere and music. Well done
Imagine what it must have been like for real
amen fuck the war
God I can’t imagine how shitty it would be to crawl through those dead bodies. The stench alone would suck.
If smell could be transmitted through speakers, everyone would vomit
no amount of money would make me crawl through that fountain
Demetri would have likely passed away from the tanks missile launcher or maybe even gotten major brain damage.
I remember playing this campaign over and over and it is still to this day top tier. The beautiful story telling of the Americans storming the beaches, and the Russians fighting through the streets and alleyways. There was horrific moments like in the fountain surrounded by your dead comrades and that moment sticks cause you're forced to be there for a decent amount of time where there's no talking, no shooting, just you in puddles of blood and your dead friends. Not only was this game action packed but it really showed how disturbing war was in many different ways and lot of the time it was subtle.
Huge respect to everyone who actually lived this game
They never give people what they truly want. Just try to force feed us dog shit and call it steak. Remake the original COD’s we grew up with and loved. Thank you for this! :)
One of the best missions in Cod. Still gives me chills just like how I played it back in the days...
The switch in tone is amazing, going from running around with a bazooka, flamethrower and a grenade launcher while the Japanese are in the trees, in the grass running at you with bayonets. Then you go to this, massacres, going into buildings to avoid German patrols that’ll burn you if they find you, a single shot can alert any patrol in the area.
Masterpiece. Literally the best call of duty ever made the campaign the multiplayer. The zombies mode wow the memories ❤
Best World War game ever hands down, a remastered of this game would be bought in a heartbeat, it wont happen but man can people only dream, one of the best Call of Duty games ever in my opinion
Agree. I don’t know why they don’t remaster it
@@anthonyfonseca2417 snowflakes would try cancel it or something
@@tobyelliott8282 No, that’s a false narrative and pandering to that audience does no real good. Those people that would complain wouldn’t buy the game or stop the sales in anyway.
@@jordanwebster1728 I agree, but they still wouldn't have the balls to use the same gore as WaW. There hasn't been a single gory cod since this game lol
@@BananaPhoPhilly Vanguard is pretty gory. If there’s one thing that game did right it’s that. Games trash other than that though lol
Huge respect to legends who participated in this war.
Next time i stand at my grandfathers grave i will tell him about your regards butchering oodles and oodles of those russians, man with manga profile picture.
yeah every second comment about respect, but in real life no one gives a sh*t about veterans, people are such hypocrites
@@betraid at least the devs atm did respect them enough to not depict it with a woke story
Thanks… It was tough but we made it through
@@Alps-fo3ezthis came out in 2000s ofc not but if it came out today it will be woke crap with swastikas blocked
So many great fuckin memories playing this on my house's Windows XP desktop when I was a boy 🥲. I will never forget that hearing that haunting menu music for the first time all alone in the dark. This game made me have vast respect for those like my grandfather who fought in WW2. So much fun playing modded zombies even years after BO2 and other COD games were years past. I wish things could go back to the eay they were in 2009 😔.
Amazing game! My all time favourite COD game.
The music the visuals. This mission alone had more meaning than the games they put out now. Like you actually truly wanted to help Reznov get payback.
Such a shame no game will EVER be this grim again like how it used to be. People became soft and things like this will never be a thing ever again. It is only a burning memory, even the mission in MW2 when you were ghilid up and had to sneak through the woods and the tall grass as tanks and men pass you.
That was the first Modern Warfare
nope peop le did not infact become "soft" maybe u did
@@lefroste6370 says the soft one
@@0Tony1 okay Tony
No you right because they are to busy to compete with Fornite and turn Cod in straight garbage
Growing up my mum never let me play CoD games, but my dad did and this was one of his favourites and one he insisted I should play. I think understand why.
Актуально на сегодняшний день. С Днём Победы 🎉
Some may frown at this in todays world, but things were different when I grew up playing this franchise; I can remember being 10-12years old, playing through this campaign for the first time…as a child, I would act as one of the soldiers and converse back and forth with Reznov and other main characters to really immerse myself in these famous battles. This mission is especially one of my favs ever; because of the close resemblance to a film called “Enemy at the Gates.” It’s sad the players of today in my opinion will never truly get that “Hype/Immersion” feeling of today’s CODs, because when these games came out EVERYONE wanted to play.
We can blame corporate greediness for that
Kids today don’t know a good cod game. Wow, black ops 1. Modern warfare 2 are the best three imo. Wow and bo1 had the best campaigns though.
Жаль, что Резнов не дожил до наших дней и погиб в Воркуте. Я бы с ним с удовольствием выпил водки! А если серьёзно, то этого героя очень не хватает в последующих частях в русских компаниях. Культовый персонаж!
It is a pity that Reznov did not survive to this day and died in Vorkuta. I would love to drink vodka with him! But seriously, this hero is sorely lacking in subsequent parts in Russian companies. An iconic character!
sorry i don't speak in motherland

Он сбежал из Воркуты и умер в 2011
выпей с ним лучше йогурта на пикнике в Парке Горького )))
The eery music and ambiance of this mission is still in my top 3 missions/scenes of video game entertainment history.
Easily one of the best campaigns in the Call of Duty franchise
One of the greatest CoD missions of all time.
Oh the nostalgia my very first cod ever
The first song that plays when they are crawling in the fountain, oh man, I don’t think any cod can replicate the feeling of rawness and atmosphere that WaW brings
This board was my favorite in the game, it made me feel like I was in the “Enemy At the Gates” movie for real. World at war such a fun game whether it was PVE or PVP. Certified classic.
This game got me through 8th grade(the single worst year of my school life). The multi-player was so intense and exhilarating plus missions with Reznov were so engaging and tactical.
Why was it difficult
@@shaquille.oatmeal.9623 Mostly puberty. Lol.
The atmosphere in this game was just amazing, the zombie mode was the best of all the ones that come after that.
I was age 5 playing this mission and the amount of times I played it over and over it still remains my favorite cod mission.
All the veterans who fought in this terrible war, the greatest people, they saved people from Nazism, but of course Nazism in some countries remained, I give honor to the veterans who fought
Then they cursed Eastern Europe with Communism. They’re not heros, they’re just the enemy of the enemy.
This game goes so hard on its ability to transfer those cold heart emotions portraying war, everything is so brutal, bleak, and ultimately sad.
Still better than vanguard
Loved all the older classic cods In my opinion after black ops 1 and modern warfare 3 we're made Cod games fell hard
No shit
Да, всё в Сталинграде было гораздо хуже: на одном этаже в комнатах по соседству могли буквально располагаться немецкие и советские солдаты. Бои шли буквально за каждую комнату, этаж, дом, улицу. Это был ад. Прибавьте к этому гражданское население - не все жители смогли переправиться через реку и соответственно эвакуироваться. Город почти полностью бвл стёрт с лица земли, руины.
I love how they recreated the scene from the beginning of Enemy at The Gates! Shout out one of the world's greatest snipers, Vasily Zaitsev.
Враг у ворот.Василий Зайцев.✊✊✊👍👍👍

just absolutely gritty the sounds.
from the music to the gunshots to the birds and the footsteps.
absolutely incredible
My great-grandfather was a combined arms officer who defended Stalingrad. Reached Berlin.
Hello from Russia ❤
world at war was the first cod i played a lot of. glad i did too i’ve never been more interested in an era than ww2 and this still is my favorite cod
I finished cod 1 and 2 4 years ago, i still want to replay them, old call of duty had soo much war intro them, no skins, no paychecks.
The sound design for this game was amazing
This mission is inspired in the movie “Enemy at the gates”.
No shit ? Thanks Captain Obvious
I played this masterpiece when I was 13. It was way ahead of its time. I remember some of my friends were bragging about Resident Evil 4 back then. And I showed them this part of Call of Duty 5 and they were blown away by the realism and the amazing gameplay of it.
Wow this game really held up well. I love the beginning it's like the "Enemy at the Gates" movie scene.
O jogo mais marcante de guerra que eu joguei até hj. Uma verdadeira obra de arte!
My father-in-law was a Soviet artillery officer at Stalingrad. He passed away 15 years ago.
Two of the luckiest survivors of the classic COD goat series. I remember playing this back then, just like All Ghillied Up in COD4, and thinking, “Wow, i was almost killed by a huge barrage of enemies.” Petrenko and Reznov, especially Reznov, would play key to the victory in this game. All WW2 COD games, from back then, were the goat! So simplistic yet the most symbolic at showing the true cost of war.
definitely the most brutal & dark call of duty , so glad i grew up with this alongside the og medal of honors.
The good old days of call of duty. I remember when the first one dropped and this franchise eventually took over everything especially after cod4 dropped, it even outshined medal of honor which was the first world at War game that blew up for ps1 and 2...sheesh I'm getting old.
I had medal of honor underground on PlayStation 1 😂 I was like 6
I would give anything to play this for the first time again
Вечная память советскому солдату герою
Patrenko: Touches fire ridden log and burns hand 7:32
Reznov: Pain is such a beautiful thing
