Always struck me as weird that Adler and his team kill you even when you remain loyal, but the Soviets welcome you back with open arms, trusting you completely.
You were never "one of the good guys" to them. You were simply a brainwashed tool to help CIA clean up the mess with the nukes. But to Soviets you were valuable asset and a colleague. Not only was your life important, but your strange position inside CIA's structure could be vital to "The Plan" if they manage to contact you. And if played right, it could also help eliminate the only people who have any chance of stopping it. So yeah, your comrades had every reason to care more about you
Adler is just like the Americans in the real world behave the same way... they use and throw. USA used Ukraine-Russia war to sell their weapons, did they get a single American soldier on the ground to help Ukraine? Did the Americans add Ukraine to NATO? Everyone talks of Russian Propaganda. Well the NY Times and Washington post also talk about the US interest, BBC talks about the British/NATO interest... at any point USA could throw you out of the world's banking system in seconds (by throwing you out of SWIFT)... Holding a Monopoly in business in America is a crime, yet they hold the monopoly over Truth.
You're actually a soviet agent Addler brainwashed. Of course they'd kill you once you were no longer useful. Who knows how long the brainwashing will last.
To be fair, you did immediately retaliate by shooting Adler back. You know, to be fair, I like Bell a lot, they are the ones who actually quick draw when they're about to get betrayed, unlike in...every other COD. I still prefer the "bad" ending.

It's a bad ending because it messed up the entire black ops story line they had planned out. Now there is no reason for someone to hack an entire drone army. Or fight an AI.
It’s The good ending because even though you get shot you save atleast the lives of a millions of people. The bad ending is bad because you survive but you press the button to kill a millions of people

The friendliness is ultimately a façade.

if many people can believe this then i am happy that many people will literally sacrifice themselves for something they have been told not for something they believe. can use few of them in future for quick money and scapegoat
The fact that the majority of the playerbase actually love this ending speaks volumes. ActiBlizz and Treyarch should take notes and consider this for the next game. Perhaps a CoD set in an alt timeline where the Soviets took over the world is in order, with you switching perspectives between what’s left of US special forces hiding as an underground resistance and as a Soviet loyalist hunting your other character down.
@@coconutwateryt Detroit is more about androids/robots becoming more human by having actual emotions and free will/thoughts (either starting a pacifism protest or full aggression war) What spaceboi is saying here is what if treyarch made a CoD Wolfenstein except instead of nazis we had global soviets And honestly, i would love a spinoff about this scenario. I don't think this ending would fit or even is canon to the modern warfare 2019 and it's future projects (still, i wished this ending could be canon)
Yea you just conveniently wipe out millions of innocent civilians by detonating nukes throughout Europe, causing death and destruction, all worth it because Perseus patted you on the shoulder and called you Comrade.
Apparently the canon ending is you vs Addler in a cowboy duel, if both have died in that, it would explain why we didn't heard anything more about Addler or "Bell".
What strikes me about this is that "Bell" had enough mental faculty once the washing wore off to recognize Duga was not only a great location for tricking them (radio transmission as stated in the briefing) but was also able to tune a radio to a specific frequency to get Perseus' attention.
@@dreamslonglostuncle6483 Oh no, It's clearly before the disaster, it was just a joke because McMillan's line in COD4 is "40,000 persons used to live there"
Perseus is one of the best villains to have as a friend,he wont betray you,he wont let you die if he can help, and he is loyal, thats a really good villain
Adler shoots you for dead after saving the world Perseus greets you like friend and invites you to drink vodka with fellow conrades after saving humanity Yeah im going with Perseus, BYYYEEEE
To be honest, Woods and mason probably would've stolen a truck that led to a perfectly placed helicopter that would take them to Perseus's secret compound or somethin.
When I played the jungle mission I kept thinking that bell was a sleeper agent like mason but when it was revealed that you where a Russian I was amazed that they allowed you to betray alder’s team!
Nah, Perseus is a rogue element acting against the wishes of wider Soviet state. If anything, you're a wanted man at that point, a war criminal responsible for millions of deaths.

You know something that I love in that ambush ending? The reaction of your former team. The face that Adler and Woods make when you give the order is incredible. And that possibility made me love Cold War. And even with all that, Woods still wants to protect you. (Us, actually).
Am I the only one who wants “Perseus” (or whatever his actual name is) to be a playable operator? We need playable villains in the game. (Same for Menendez too)
Bell was betrayed by his own comrade because "Bell" was Perseus favorite while dying Adler finds him and brainwashes him making him forget all his prior memories including his real name and he didn't get his memory back until the last mission. So I don't blame Bell for killing Adler Mason and Woods Adler manipulated and used Bell until the job was done Adler never trusted Bell
3:12 Instead of perseus, I would love to see Reznov come out with ppsh on his hand and say "On your feet comrade, ready for a little vengeance?" And give you the ppsh
Reznov got betrayed by the Soviet Union, saw his best friend get used as an experiment for a biological weapon, and then locked in a Gulag before screwing with Mason's brainwashing to make him obsessed with killing Dragovich instead of Kennedy.
@@skytop082 He did not got betrayed by the Soviet Union, he was a war hero that threatens the career of Dragovich, he knew too much, that's why he is in Vorkuta after the war.
Well the Americans were the good guys here. They are not fighting Soviet government operatives, they were fighting rouge terrorists and doing everything in order to save the lives of millions of innocent people. The whole world lose in this ending.
Imagine if bell doesn't speak russian the whole game and when you signal the ambush, bell says it in Russian symbolizing he choose to side with the Russians. That'd be pretty bad ass imo
You know whats funny when I played the campaing Adler maked me get friendly fire 4 times and I got pissed cuz of the checkpoints, I guess It was a singal to me showing me not to trust Adler, I think Adler has magnet attachted to his back cuz goddamn everywere I aim he follows my gun's barrel
It's impossible, because Black Ops already has an established universe. As cool as it would be, it wouldn't make much sense. I would rather see another Cold War Black Ops game, but with Soviet protagonists.
I wish games made more endings like this,kinda like seeing the protagonist helping the "baddies" without getting killed or betrayed Edit: also nice kill-cams!
Honestly, my view of Cold War raised a bit more positive. We can finally be on the other side, the Russians, I think this is more unique and change of feeling in Cod's campaigns since we always are the "good guys". Though today's media aren't hard skinned much. :/
Actually, that is really a more "grey moral" kind of story than the joke of MW2019. Any choice is solid, everything makes sense, no universally "good" side, just pick your bias and act.
Because in the other two Adler still kills you, I love this ending best. Perseus really treats the player like a true comrade, while the CIA this whole time had manipulated you. That was the whole pawn premise that Mason talked about in BO4
@Shellpox Mason may have "been" Reznov's best Friend while in vorkuta but now Reznov, Dimitri and Mason are all in paradise. Free from Dragochiv's terror
I love how if you lie to him, soon as he gives you a hand to get up you see his name in red, since you are now looking at an enemy. If you tell him the truth, his name doesn’t come up in blue at all. It’s these small things that I love.
The Soviet ending displays a well crafted version of camaraderie and family first in my opinion. The American ending beautifully created justice and duty, but being forgotten by your friends in the end. I prefer the Soviet one not because of killing Woods and Mason lmao, but I liked the way Perseus treated you as his lost son while Adler be like: "AnOthEr DoSe".
Love how it tries to disguise Perseus as a generic soviet soldier as if we don't know exactly who it is as soon as he steps on screen. Also, I really wish this wasn't the last mission, but like a 75% point in the campain with the last quarter dependent on which side you chose.
Since Perseus seems to be separating himself from USSR and Regan gets a report that Moscow is surprised by all this aaaannnndddd knowing that Zakaev is in this universe now, I bet Persus' crew is the new "Ultranationalists" that we saw at the ending of MW 2019. Thoughts?
Playing for the first time, i chose lie. I was amazed at this campaign. The multiple options and routes it can go is great. The music is spot on. Hearing the dark music when you lie, and then Adler's name go red when he lifts you up.... I just can't deal.

The fact that the majority of the playerbase actually love this ending speaks volumes. ActiBlizz and Treyarch should take notes and consider this for the next game. Perhaps a CoD set in an alt timeline where the Soviets took over the world is in order, with you switching perspectives between what’s left of US special forces hiding as an underground resistance and as a Soviet loyalist hunting your other character down.
that’s basically Detroit become human but with action
@@coconutwateryt Detroit is more about androids/robots becoming more human by having actual emotions and free will/thoughts (either starting a pacifism protest or full aggression war)

You know something that I love in that ambush ending? The reaction of your former team. The face that Adler and Woods make when you give the order is incredible. And that possibility made me love Cold War. And even with all that, Woods still wants to protect you. (Us, actually).

Actually, that is really a more "grey moral" kind of story than the joke of MW2019. Any choice is solid, everything makes sense, no universally "good" side, just pick your bias and act.
