@@gmakerc1 You can drink heavy water, so long as it hasn't been contaminated by radioactive isotopes. Supposedly it would take a few days of drinking almost exclusively heavy water for it to start affecting you.

Funnily enough the British actually DID help the war by singing. The battle of Sidi Nsir (although a defeat) struck enough of a blow to Germany to allow for a timely invasion of Sicily. Some of the guns in the 155 battery at the battle were said to have been singing a popular war song; "Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition and we'll all be free" while destroying the incoming tank division.
@@kirby7294 Indeed! It’s a quote from Pearl Harbor by Chaplain Forgy on the USS New Orleans. The elevator to bring up munitions broke so the men had to make a bucket brigade and this phrase helped them get through it
Actually, I think they might have a little footnote in the credits that says "A week later another mission to destroy the heavy water happened." Like... why bother at that point? They already made this mission James Bond level believable, why would anyone not in the know believe anything like it actually happened?

Fun fact: you can actually drink heavy water without being in much danger, as long as you don't drink too much (about several glasses maybe). Although it is widely used in the nuclear industry, heavy water itself is not radioactive. The only possible hazard factor is that it is heavier than ordinary water, and drinking too much of it can disrupt some of the biochemical processes in your body.

In all seriousness, it's so sad and a colossal pity that they had the opportunity to make a game so good and so great with the tech they had in their disposal, and they just made a generic preachy boring and bad singleplayer. It's so sad.
STG 44 in 1942. Remember the Scene where they put the german in the "trunk" of the Kübelwagen ? You know the Kübelwagen got its trunk on the front but in BFV the captured german is in the back 😂
So many real things could have been shown, without this fictional mess. How about the Indians in North Africa or Monte Cassino? Nigerians in East Africa? Chinese in China? 442nd Regiment?
I know right. They said they wanted to focus on the forgotten battles, but gave us fictional ones instead. They could have added Italy, Finland, Romania, Thailand, Brazil or many other nations that participated.
It’s revisionist history on purpose, these people deliberately not want to erase what came before, they do not care whatsoever about actual history. It’s all apart of the Kalergi Plan
The mission about the Germans that was delayed and released later is the best one. I'd say it's the only good one. Sure, the gameplay might not be the best, but the story is believable and actually does something daring. Humanizing the Germans.
A 12th army story would be cool. Fighting to hold the escape corridor to save as many people as possible, defending against the waves of pissed off Soviets.
Nerds when a game adds female characters to WW2: "This is so disrespectful to the real veterans who served! How dare they do that!" Nerds when a game lets you play as the Nazis, laughing as you gun down hundreds of Allied soldiers: "Hell yes! Finally something daring and brave!"
@@Kirbyoto2098 Yeah. You play as a German tank commander. But you play as a German tank commander realizing that all he's fought for was for nothing. You see the humanity of the crew and how the imminent defeat affects them. You have the blindly loyal teenager, the veteran who knows they've lost, and the commander trying to keep his men together. In the end, he doesn't care about Germany. He cares about his men. Humanizing German soldiers from this war IS daring. The Norwegian heavy water mission places two women as the masterminds and agents of an actual mission that was performed by Jens-Anton Poulsson Arne Kjelstrup Knut Haugland Claus Helberg Joachim Rønneberg Knut Haukelid Fredrik Kayser Kasper Idland Hans Storhaug Birger Strømsheim Leif Tronstad Knut Haukelid Knut Klonteig Knut Lier-Hansen Rolf Sørlie Einar Skinnarland Gunnar Syverstad Kjell Nielsen and "Larsen"
The African colonial soldiers in Southern France taking a manor is better. The characters are fictional, but so is the mission, but it is more believable. The colonial troops were just as brave as their mainlander counterparts, and did indeed get shafted and treated as lessers. But Dice didn't shove two French Moroccan men into an actual mission and replace the actual people who were in it.
I think the Last Tiger is the best campaign in BFV. It's honestly really good and makes you sympathize with the enemy which most media doesn't even attempt. And the Germans didn't speak fucking English.
@@duplicarus I mean like most WW2 games in modern times don't have the fucking balls to have their German characters speak German because I guess they think their audience is too illiterate to read subtitles

Heavy water is water where the hydrogen atoms of the water molecules have neutrons in their nuclei. This helps in nuclear energy by allowing the water to moderate radical neutrons without their occasional absorption in the process. This makes it easier to construct reactors without refined uranium. Heavy water isn't bad for you, but it isn't good either. Iirc, heavy water doesn't behave the same chemically as regular water does. Your body won't be able to perform certain chemical reactions properly because of this, and it can negatively affect you.
I got this game for 7 dollars a few months ago and I enjoyed the single player stuff, played multiplayer for about 60 hours, and uninstalled it this weekend. I feel like that was money well spent.
picked it up for 4 bucks at pawn shop, enjoyed some of the more unique guns like the drilling and the commando, then dropped in after 2-3 weeks, still it was quite a bit of time filled for $4
got it full price and I can say it was worth the full price. The chaotic nature of the game and the action sold me on it, not as good as bf1's chaotic cluster fuck but Its still an amazing time with friends.
@@officercat7907 they humanized nazis during ww2. ignoring driving, story was good, showing what hitler jugend did to kids (shroeder) and friendship during war (muller and kertz)
3:04 I once met a man who, as a teenager, helped Jews escape Norway for Sweden during WW2. When asked what he thinks happened to the collaborators and Nazis he said "oh they must have all went home" with a very dripping sarcasm that heavily implied they were taken out back and shot like dogs. That was one old man I would never want to mess with.
Its because they wanted to make the cast diverse, and the truth of WW2 is that minorities played only minor roles in the war compared to the vast scope of the conflict. You had a few female snipers and spies, a few colored units that saw some action late in the war, and the Nisei, who were genuinely badass and would have made a great addition to the campaign if the creators had cared. So to compensate they blew the minor roles completely out of proportion to heighten the drama, all at the cost of history and reality.
This games multiplayer was pretty fun. Not as fun as Battlefield 1 but still pretty fun. I know why folks had an issue with this title but idgaf you could make your characters male and give them accurate loadouts. It still has more atmosphere than 2042
I could ignore the silly historical inaccuracies and have fun, but them making a woman take the place of a large group of Norwegian and British men in an actual operation was a disgusting slap in the face. They can do what they want with the stories they make up but that’s just rude to the people who were there.
@@archbishopofthecrusades9579 There were plenty of women involved in resistance movements, don’t get too ahead of yourself. But yes, replacing the entire group for one person is definitely not cool.
@@m_ridaeI know about the women involved in WW2, they just weren’t involved in this operation. It seems Dice doesn’t know about them either, since they could’ve done a story about the Night Witches, or a story on the Warsaw revolt which involved multiple women, but nope, can’t be bothered to do that,
A Tiger tank in 1941? Geez, Dice🤦♂️ But seriously, they could have done such great things with a German campaign. But no, we have to listen to BiLLy BrIdGeR and some random Norwegian resistance fighter who can apparently take down the whole German heavy water program.
I really liked the idea of war stories but Dice having an insane need of making everything in BF1 and V being stealth missions was ridiculous. It's like they were trying to emulate Far cry and the game just was not designed for it
0:26 The "Commando Carbine" is a real firearm, though its real name is the De Lisle. It was chambered in .45 ACP and is actually one of the quietest production firearms of all time, as its barrel is an integrated suppressor similar to the AAC Honey Badger. It was in service from 1943 until 1965, and apparently saw service in WW2, Korea, and the Malayan Emergency.
Riding into Tobruk in a tank that only came into service the year after is a strong start 😋 Siege of Tobruk ended late 1941. Tiger 1s came into service 1942... ! -- Keep up the fun vids and all the best!
Not only can you buy heavy water as a regular person it’s fairly neat. It’s denser than normal water so if you make ice cubes out of it they sink in your glass. Technically it’s not “good” to drink but the amount of heavy water you’d have to butt chug to have any health effects is practically impossible.
@@cristobalzamorano377 Yes, but it still kept closer to the roots of WW1 than BFV did. It didn't have cyborgs and wahmun everywhere they weren't supposed to be (it had female snipers during the Russian civil war of 1919 which happened) and people being all happy pappy and lulzy about fighting and so forth.

@@fromthebackseat4865 I only remember everyone calling it "mostly forgettable", which it was, although segments with Dima were cool. Now the BF4 campaign was a piece of shit.

Cody'sLab did taste heavy water on camera once. it is slightly sweet, and itsnt really a danger in small doses (if it hasnt passed through any nuclear processes, of course). Drinking any substantial amount would apparently leave you dizzy, due to the difference in mass altering the fluid density of the inner ear.

That's what I always do. Really not a joke.
In all seriousness, it's so sad and a colossal pity that they had the opportunity to make a game so good and so great with the tech they had in their disposal, and they just made a generic preachy boring and bad singleplayer. It's so sad.
This says a lot with BF4's whole story.
1942 mission: uses Panzer 4H, produced from 1943-1945
1944/1945 missions: use Panzer 4G, produced from 1942-1943
classic AAA WW2 game
STG 44 in 1942. Remember the Scene where they put the german in the "trunk" of the Kübelwagen ? You know the Kübelwagen got its trunk on the front but in BFV the captured german is in the back 😂
The intro sequence in *Libya, 1941* shows a *Tiger I*
WTF!? A Panzer III would be accurate!
Technically you could "drink" any liquid

Or twice if you're fast enough

Did anyone else notice that at 1:44 oboe firing the machine gun is in tune with Phil Collins' In The Air Tonight?
So many real things could have been shown, without this fictional mess. How about the Indians in North Africa or Monte Cassino? Nigerians in East Africa? Chinese in China? 442nd Regiment?
I know right. They said they wanted to focus on the forgotten battles, but gave us fictional ones instead. They could have added Italy, Finland, Romania, Thailand, Brazil or many other nations that participated.
It’s revisionist history on purpose, these people deliberately not want to erase what came before, they do not care whatsoever about actual history. It’s all apart of the Kalergi Plan
Or, also, the *actual Norwegian commandos*
@@thatperformer3879 thats bs and you know it
@@thatperformer3879 Get your JQ bullshit out of here.
This campaign was a significant drop off from Battlefield 1’s and it’s still better and more memorable than Vanguard’s.
At least Vanguard got the Germans right. In BF5 the german officers wear a british officer cap hahhajjaa
The mission about the Germans that was delayed and released later is the best one.
I'd say it's the only good one.
Sure, the gameplay might not be the best, but the story is believable and actually does something daring. Humanizing the Germans.
A 12th army story would be cool. Fighting to hold the escape corridor to save as many people as possible, defending against the waves of pissed off Soviets.

Nerds when a game adds female characters to WW2: "This is so disrespectful to the real veterans who served! How dare they do that!"
Nerds when a game lets you play as the Nazis, laughing as you gun down hundreds of Allied soldiers: "Hell yes! Finally something daring and brave!"
@@Kirbyoto2098 Yeah. You play as a German tank commander. But you play as a German tank commander realizing that all he's fought for was for nothing. You see the humanity of the crew and how the imminent defeat affects them. You have the blindly loyal teenager, the veteran who knows they've lost, and the commander trying to keep his men together. In the end, he doesn't care about Germany. He cares about his men.
Humanizing German soldiers from this war IS daring.

The African colonial soldiers in Southern France taking a manor is better. The characters are fictional, but so is the mission, but it is more believable.
The colonial troops were just as brave as their mainlander counterparts, and did indeed get shafted and treated as lessers.
But Dice didn't shove two French Moroccan men into an actual mission and replace the actual people who were in it.
The main reason not to drink heavy water is that it's pretty expensive.
My man's commentary is so fine, it could make thick water baby-friendly.
I think the Last Tiger is the best campaign in BFV. It's honestly really good and makes you sympathize with the enemy which most media doesn't even attempt. And the Germans didn't speak fucking English.
They only speak English in “Under no Flag”.
@@duplicarus I mean like most WW2 games in modern times don't have the fucking balls to have their German characters speak German because I guess they think their audience is too illiterate to read subtitles
@@reachyboi3953 even more ballsey to have a german campaign outside of multiplayer, and not just make them generic baddies at the same time.
@@duplicarus Yes. I have a lot of respect for the last tiger war story. Especially when taking our current political climate into consideration.
@@reachyboi3953 i appreciate it because my great grandfather died fighting the russians (at least that’s what I’m told). Only heard good things about him. It’s nice to see Germans being humanized for once
All this game did was ignore the actual commandos who actually fought and showed that black Algerians will lead you into a suicide attack 10/10 times
I agree with the other stories the Algerian suicide attack was actually pretty historically accurate, I was a history major and remember deep diving to check after I played it
I have tried to get into this game like 6 times and i just cant. You worded my experience perfectly, "They could have made it fun but they forgot"

Fun fact: DC comic's first Flash gained his superspeed from inhaling heavy water vapors. So you should definitely drink the heavy water.
Like the Dark5 reference - a channel I've followed for years yet still verges between "Good Content" and "My Dyslexic Younger Brother Is Doing This Episode There WILL Be Typos"
"Patrolling the Mojave, almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter." - Some Random NCR Trooper
There was an episode of Hogan's Heroes where they stopped the German nuclear program by tricking a guard into drinking all the heavy water.
Heavy water is water where the hydrogen atoms of the water molecules have neutrons in their nuclei. This helps in nuclear energy by allowing the water to moderate radical neutrons without their occasional absorption in the process. This makes it easier to construct reactors without refined uranium. Heavy water isn't bad for you, but it isn't good either. Iirc, heavy water doesn't behave the same chemically as regular water does. Your body won't be able to perform certain chemical reactions properly because of this, and it can negatively affect you.
I got this game for 7 dollars a few months ago and I enjoyed the single player stuff, played multiplayer for about 60 hours, and uninstalled it this weekend. I feel like that was money well spent.
picked it up for 4 bucks at pawn shop, enjoyed some of the more unique guns like the drilling and the commando, then dropped in after 2-3 weeks, still it was quite a bit of time filled for $4
got it full price and I can say it was worth the full price. The chaotic nature of the game and the action sold me on it, not as good as bf1's chaotic cluster fuck but Its still an amazing time with friends.
Okay that's a fair price. That's kinda like renting it.
the "oh no he's got ze MP 40" was the best bit
Germans dont talk like that in englisch.
6:04 might be one of the funniest things I've heard on this channel
This starts off real bad. Why is there a Tiger in 1941???:..
Because we are all uneducated according to Dice. Dont you know it ?
All I could think of during the whole heavy water story was BadlandsChugs and the thick water. 😂
"Ohh...a hospital. Easy kills..." -Oboe Shoes
4:54 I would probably react the same way, I am spiritually connected with that german
the last tiger was literally the best out of all of them tf are you on about
Eh I disagree. It made being in a tank so boring cause you fight the same damn enemies over and over.
@@officercat7907 they humanized nazis during ww2. ignoring driving, story was good, showing what hitler jugend did to kids (shroeder) and friendship during war (muller and kertz)
When you reloaded in slow-mo there is a bullet with no shell casing that flies out
The random Star Wars scroll caught me off guard, been laughing about that way too long.
You got betrayed and thrown off a bridge by your character's mother-figure? That's very MGS3
3:04 I once met a man who, as a teenager, helped Jews escape Norway for Sweden during WW2. When asked what he thinks happened to the collaborators and Nazis he said "oh they must have all went home" with a very dripping sarcasm that heavily implied they were taken out back and shot like dogs. That was one old man I would never want to mess with.
All we wanted was next gen BF 1942, but instead Dice said, "hey let's focus on the minor parts of the war and blow them way out of proportion!"
Its because they wanted to make the cast diverse, and the truth of WW2 is that minorities played only minor roles in the war compared to the vast scope of the conflict. You had a few female snipers and spies, a few colored units that saw some action late in the war, and the Nisei, who were genuinely badass and would have made a great addition to the campaign if the creators had cared.
So to compensate they blew the minor roles completely out of proportion to heighten the drama, all at the cost of history and reality.
I mean the Heavy Water stuff was actually a major allied victory. It basically stopped the Nazi's from producing nuclear weapons
@@ziggystrangelove4250 and in real life the raid was conducted by white male norwegian commandos.
@@terragthegreat175 yeah I know. But saying that it was a minor operation is disrespectful to those who did it
@@terragthegreat175 important to note that a key resistance leader of that group was indeed female.

This games multiplayer was pretty fun. Not as fun as Battlefield 1 but still pretty fun. I know why folks had an issue with this title but idgaf you could make your characters male and give them accurate loadouts.
It still has more atmosphere than 2042
I could ignore the silly historical inaccuracies and have fun, but them making a woman take the place of a large group of Norwegian and British men in an actual operation was a disgusting slap in the face. They can do what they want with the stories they make up but that’s just rude to the people who were there.
Tha game is a more refined version of bf1 with horrible marketing and release
@@archbishopofthecrusades9579 There were plenty of women involved in resistance movements, don’t get too ahead of yourself. But yes, replacing the entire group for one person is definitely not cool.
@@m_ridaeI know about the women involved in WW2, they just weren’t involved in this operation. It seems Dice doesn’t know about them either, since they could’ve done a story about the Night Witches, or a story on the Warsaw revolt which involved multiple women, but nope, can’t be bothered to do that,
The gun that shoots epilepsy line... I cannot stop fucking laughing.
A Tiger tank in 1941?
Geez, Dice🤦♂️
But seriously, they could have done such great things with a German campaign. But no, we have to listen to BiLLy BrIdGeR and some random Norwegian resistance fighter who can apparently take down the whole German heavy water program.
Threw dark docs in there YES CONTENT
I really liked the idea of war stories but Dice having an insane need of making everything in BF1 and V being stealth missions was ridiculous. It's like they were trying to emulate Far cry and the game just was not designed for it
you could actually drink a glass of heavy water without much problem , but drinking would lead you eventually to radiation poisoning
Heavy water is not radioactive by default. It's definetely not healthy to drink too much, but it's also definetely not radioactive.
5:45 that easy xp line killed me 🤣
0:26 The "Commando Carbine" is a real firearm, though its real name is the De Lisle. It was chambered in .45 ACP and is actually one of the quietest production firearms of all time, as its barrel is an integrated suppressor similar to the AAC Honey Badger. It was in service from 1943 until 1965, and apparently saw service in WW2, Korea, and the Malayan Emergency.
Riding into Tobruk in a tank that only came into service the year after is a strong start 😋
Siege of Tobruk ended late 1941.
Tiger 1s came into service 1942... !

Keep up the fun vids and all the best!
Not only can you buy heavy water as a regular person it’s fairly neat. It’s denser than normal water so if you make ice cubes out of it they sink in your glass. Technically it’s not “good” to drink but the amount of heavy water you’d have to butt chug to have any health effects is practically impossible.
I thought I accidentally clicked over to dark doc in the middle of the video and I was so fucking confused fam.
Same
5:21 Oboe, my dude, that's the secret to every single game nowadays!
I love that they tried to imitate BF1 but failed because of historical revionism and cyborgs.
Well BF1 was incredibly historical innacurate too
But at least in bf1 you could immerse yourself
@@cristobalzamorano377 Yes, but it still kept closer to the roots of WW1 than BFV did. It didn't have cyborgs and wahmun everywhere they weren't supposed to be (it had female snipers during the Russian civil war of 1919 which happened) and people being all happy pappy and lulzy about fighting and so forth.

It has 2 good missions, the one with the jets and the one with the tanks. The rest of it is very meh.

@@fromthebackseat4865 I only remember everyone calling it "mostly forgettable", which it was, although segments with Dima were cool. Now the BF4 campaign was a piece of shit.

If you drink irradiated water you'll become a Stalker
4:54 that grenade wouldn’t explode because the cap at the bottom hasn’t been opened and the string hasn’t been pulled
Battlefield games have story modes?
Just so you know months of work and development that could have gone to story and multiplayer content went to the amazing Firestorm Royale that's super popular...

The heavy water molecule representation is dummy ticc too
Cody'sLab did taste heavy water on camera once. it is slightly sweet, and itsnt really a danger in small doses (if it hasnt passed through any nuclear processes, of course). Drinking any substantial amount would apparently leave you dizzy, due to the difference in mass altering the fluid density of the inner ear.
