Adler pulling a Sheperd was kind of expected and unexpected at the same time
You play call of duty?!?!
We all saw it coming, but we all wished it didn’t really happen
You gotta be a bot? Every video I watch you always were there! How is that even possible? Lol
Just because Adler did that I will lie
Adler could be a younger shepherd
the good ending really went like this
bell: “i got it sir”
adler: *”good thats one loose end.”*
Yeah, I’m doing the evil ending just so I can kill Adler after what he did in the good ending.
Facts
Yea
lol yep
**Bang**
Adler: It was never personal.
Me, replaying the last mission:
...and I took that personally.
Lmao
Same here felt that
BRUH SAME I ENDED UP REPLAYING THE MISSION AND TURNING ON THEN BECAUSE OF HIS SNAKE ASS😂
@@AquaEditzzz killing Adler was so satisfying after that good ending
This shit so fax bro, I really rocked their bitch asses because Adler wanted to betray me. Most satisfying thing ive done in a long time.
Bell : Talks nicely to Park, saves her. Park starts to like Bell.
Adler : *IT WAS NEVER PERSONAL*
Simps, simps never change
Addler was jealous. *dun dun der*
@@amazingandy007yt3 I’ve never simped more in a game than I have in Cold War 😔
Justice is best served cold because if we served it warm it would be Justwater.
@@dxl___ nice
Did anyone else spam their trigger when Adler tried to shoot you?
Yep, I thought I was in the moment during that scene lmao
yea
Hell ye i was like “ FUCK U ADLER U FCUKED UP “ *trys to aim and spam trigger non stop*
Me xd
I'm pretty sure that moment was the fastest I've ever clicked
When Adler said to Sims get the dosages ready I was like oh what a nice guy treating me when I'm wounded
Sameeee 😭😭
5 seconds later
In the eye socket?
Me: wait what
Same lol
Lol
Fax bro 😂😂
"Warns about spoilers"
*puts Adler and Bell pointing guns at each other in the thumbnail*
Ikr 😂
Don’t watch the video then haha, if it says ending explained, it’ll most likely have a summarized story in it.
@@Iniquitxus well it literally in the thumbnail
always assume thumbnails are fanart/trailer material, and they have nothing to do with the story
*World class irony right there!*
😂
When he said “it was never persanal” I knew damn well I was boutta get shot
it was never personal As soon as the subtitle i knew A: I was dead or B: I have to shot Alder
same i spammed my mouse button
Bet u don’t even have the game
same i was so sad
yeah and i wished there was voice chat at that point so could talk him out..or get him in trouble with the team by shouting so they knew
“The president himself Ronald Raygun”
Someone revive him he has raygun
@@zain5480 he didnt die from the assassination he had jug
Lmao I thought I just heard it wrong
Revive him he has ray gun
I was looking for this comment
DO NOT TRUST ADLER, I REPEAT, DO NOT TRUST ADLER
“we got the nukes sir”
Adler: Good , that’s one less loose ends
@Chris Bateman I mean adler doesn’t seem like the best guy
@Chris Bateman no that was all Adler and first off he’s a Russian spy and I’d only helping them because he got brainwashed they could’ve killed him when they found him but they didn’t and as you can see from choosing endings he isn’t a completely good guy and he could still be willing to help Perseus
@XD random XD did you just say committing a globally wide Terrorist attack and blowing up an entire continent full of millions of people just because you feel like it meanwhile destroying the US cuz they would be blamed for the it then causing an entire war to be waged ontop of the already running Cold War is the right thing in that scenario?
If imma be honest you gotta understand that you were a bad guy once and at any time you can turn
So not trust TH-cam,I repeat they will demonotise you!
Adler: " It's nothing personal"
Me shooting Adler in Duga and in Multiplayer: "Nope that was personal"
Duga
Lmao
Yeah I can't see Adler the same, I'm not gonna use him in mp and whoever has his operator on is dead to me
LMAO!!
am i the only one who went back and said fuck you and killed them all
me: fully understands the whole campaign
also me: *watches an ending explained video*
I just wanted to see if he could explain why Adler shot Bell cause Im sad about it
@@Antpoisonsame
@@Antpoisonwell my guess is Perseus in the bad ending mentioned that Perseus isn't an individual but multiple people. It's a far fetch but what if Adler is one of the sleeper agents almost like Mason was during black ops 1
@@Antpoison The reason why Adler shot Bell is because Bell was a Perseus Agent. Once he realized that he was the one who destroyed the nukes, he was about to retaliate against Adler and his other colleagues. And I felt that that's what Adler terrified. I hope you got my point.
Bell: I saved half of Europe
Adler: I shot the guy who saved half of Europe
Bell GHOST:FU*K u adler
Adler: who dat
on some general shepard shit
@@intensitydom2999 it wasn’t a duel. Adler killed bell because bell was a loose end. He was an ex-Perseus member for gods sake
Ima comment this here so someone might see this, but I dont think the nuke ending could be Canon because if the black ops series and the new rebooted mw series were Canon, then that would mean half of Europe would be nuked buy in mw 2019 it looks fine, qnd I don't think you can repair nuke damages like that

Man I deleted my last comment after watching I felt like it was a had idea 😂😅 but like I do feel like he is someone in the CIA just not sure who
@@Deathmare235 you
I felt betrayed when Adler in the "good" ending pulls a gun on you in the end, I replayed it and felt so pumped when Perseus said something like "ready for some revenge comrade?"
I chose the good ending but after Adler went to shoot me, I felt like I’d been stabbed in the back & betrayed, so much so that I re-started that ending level and lied about the location of Perseus! 😡 Then I shot Woods, Park and Mason in the head! Followed up with sticking a knife into Adler’s chest! Revenge was very sweet! But I hated the good ending so much. It’s like what Adler said; I chose to help, so why couldn’t they have tried to trust me and work with me, rather than kill me?!
In real life, I said DA
I already felt something must be wrong when Adler fcking gave me that 17th dose of injection to get the location of Persuse. Choose the "bad ending" with no hesitation and emptyed my clip when he wanted the cigarette😡
same here, feels like everybody wanted to kill adler
@@CyborgGerbilHe literally tells you why, Bell is a loose end.
"The President himself, Ronald Raygun."
Ronald raygun😀😂😂😂
@@jemc915 I thought I was the only one
Didn’t know he was on zombies
That’s my favorite gun
Petition to call the pack a punched ray gun the ronald raygun
My Theory is that Woods didn’t want Bell to slip out that incident at the arcade
Ikr that was hilarious, I friggin died
PLEASE I WAS ROLLING
Haha yea that scene was funny
Well that was woods and mason
That was mason get ur facts right kid
Adler: Did we stopped the nukes?
Bell: We did it sir!
Adler: *Good, that's one less loose end.*
bell: *hol up*
Copied
No this can't be!
Do not trust Adler , I repeat , do not trust Adler ! Woods get down!
Come on bell come in this is mason.do not trust adler I repeat DO NOT TRUST ADLER.WOODS GET DOWN
Adler: „You’re a goddamn Hero, kid!“ *proceeds to shoot Bell*
I think Adler had Bell killed in the end is when he makes the statement, “It isn’t personal” it’s obvious he was following orders, my guess is that Woods had Bell killed since Woods didn’t want anyone else to know what happened at the shooting range.
Lmao, can’t let that embarrassing story out😂
lmao i dont think it was woods, but i do like the "following orders" part
Fax when he took that dummy down I had to pause because I was crying
most underrated comment here lol
i think Hudson ordered the hit since he never trusted us
When Adler shot bell I called Adler all types of bitches and hoes. Then I refused to play Adler in multiplayer for two weeks because I went on a personal mission to kill every Adler player repeatedly like I only hunted down Adler players. This story got me in my feelings.
Damn
I always hated adler. Like I had something against him but never knew what it was
I always felt off with Adler, kind of how it was with Hudson in black ops 2.
Bro 💀
i liked him at first then seen that ending and still wont play as adler
I’m surprised Mason was so willing to go along with this BS considering what happened to him. You’d think he’d be more sympathetic or angry about the situation
“Different flag, same methods”-Reznov
I don’t think that happened to him yet
@@diehardcookie3887 nah it happens I’m pretty sure cause this game is in-between the first and second
@@alphaslash ahhh ok
@@diehardcookie3887 And it did, I think in the mission in Russia, In like winter with Woods, you play as mason, and then after a few battles there will be a time where Mason just remembered about the numbers again.
Was I the only one that choose the “good” ending then saw that at the end Adler shoots you then went back and choose the ending where you kill them all?
I chose the ambush ending first, just because Adler is a complete ass
same happened here
Nope I 360'd all those kids who betrayed me
I chose the good ending but after Adler went to shoot me, I felt like I’d been stabbed in the back & betrayed, so much so that I re-started that ending level and lied about the location of Perseus! 😡 Then I shot Woods, Park and Mason in the head!

Adler is one of those characters that doesn't need any background story, or any information that tells us where did he came out, his own presence and his personality makes him a great character
Seconded
Yep definitely my new favorite black ops character, used too be mason but now it’s adler, he’s such a badass throughout this entire campaign
I think he's related to Sgt. Roebuck from WAW as he resembles him quite a bit.
I agree
Nah a shit one man
Despite the length, I truly think this campaign is fantastic filled with great moments, references, easter eggs and parallels to the original game which I feel flew over many people's heads

Actually, the “bad ending” where the nukes are detonated isn’t cannon. One of the maps takes place in Berlin
One of the maps in bo2? I don't think it's canon but i wanna know
@@r3ktfox146 no the map garrison takes place in West Berlin which would’ve been annihilated by nukes if the bad ending occurred
You have a map called Moscow in Cold War's MP. So saying there are no Europian maps in Cold War's MP. It's factually wrong.
Garrison and Checkmate are set in Germany
Not to mention Ruka and Alpine are located in the Soviet Union.
@@thuglifeinc4894 there were no green light nukes in russia
@@alcornoquealvarez8717 actually there’s specifically one placed in Moscow soooooooo these guys are right
These endings are the perfect example of “die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain”
Great quotes
Actually,nah
In both version,your technically the hero.
Think of it this way: you either stop Europe from going boom boom,kill perseus,and think everything's gonna end well..before alder kills you,not wanting to risk bell knowing the truth and staying alive.
Or you decide that you want your revenge for what they did to you,erasing your memory,forcing you to fight against your comrades(hints are dropped throught the entire campaign,like anton calling you "damaged goods" or Hudson saying "alder knows all about that" when he says theres no truth) and even shoot up the KGB building. You lure them away from where perseus is,and either one: ambush them,and kill them,or two: lure them away so the nukes can detonate,sacrificing yourself for your comrades.
Neither side is truly good in this game.
Die a Hero,Die a traitor,Live as a villain
@J A pfft- adler erased someones memories and changed their identity,basically making them a sleeper agent that doesnt need activation,forcing them to shoot up the damn KGB building,which would be the same as making alex mason shoot up the fucking Pentagon or C.I.A building. Alder is evil. Even killing you if you decide to stop the nukes,why? Because your a loose end. You know the truth,and he doesnt want to risk you wanting him dead. Or exposing what they did to you to the public.
Live longer. Be hero again.
Imagin victor reznov came out of nowhere and went "NOBODY DIES TODAY" it would be funny
Adler's betrayal is like the shock of Shepherd's betrayal combined with Resnov's manipulation twist in BO1
Adler didn’t really betray buuuut
I felt worse than the shepherd betrayal, because you get to build Bell from the ground up. Unlike Ghost. You feel more connected to the things you make so it was worse. For me at least...
@@SovyetPotato I agree I chose the truth because I thought I could change the path of bell so he can be a good guy. Sadly they killed him.
Not really. I knew something was up with this dude.
@@SovyetPotato Absolutely not, Ghost has an actual personality while Bell is just you. For me personally it would be much worse to see my friend die compared to myself
At the end when Adler pulled the gun i was pressing the trigger button crazy
Can relate
Same and when it showed the credits I was like "THEY DID ME LIKE THIS AGAIN?! WHAT?!"
Me too 😂
Same...
Done this minutes ago came straight to a vid I was so confused and I also was pressing the trigger like crazy I seen him turning on your character since the mission where you get injected in the eye
came here faster than Adler unfolding the 1911 at the end
Good one
Dang that was pretty slow then
Yes
Nice one mate but he was pretty slow sooo yeah XD
Me too in fact sooner
I honestly think Adler will be the next villain in the next black ops game. Would make sense with this ending and could take the story a whole lot more deeper and explain why he isn't in bo2 if you end up killing him in the next game as Mason or Woods.
I like to think Bell and Adler shot and killed each other at the same time here, explaining why they aren't in BO2
Bell will come back
I was kind of angry with him when he shoots Qasim on that rooftop in the scenario when I release him. After all, Qasim was terrified and practically pleading for mercy.

@@YeahSoWhatBro :D
TFW inkslasher puts out hypotheticals and you remember those operatives are plausibly deniable and all of them might be someone else 😔
Idk about everyone else, but I was incredibly surprised that this cod wasn't just a "run through and kill the enemies" kind of cod. This cod had investigations, puzzle solving, and really required you to think and invest your time studying characters, and think about decisions. I want to see more of this in future cods.
Only thing I was pretty disappointed about was the difficulty. I did my first run on "Realism" and at times it felt like "Regular" difficulty, it was too easy.
I agree the extra layers to find optionally was a good idea, personally I think black ops 1 was king in all ways though and that was quite linear compared to others especially 2 and 3, probably helped that levels felt really open and explorable and narratives wasn't obvious, i love how black ops levels felt more immersion because it was a good amount of normal gameplay without shoving you into forced cutscenes etc too much like this did, and i think at times dialogue options actually can take away immersion. Cold war wasn't really fun gameplay imo at all but graphically good. Also I'm beyond sick of certain cod tropes now, this game was decent and had an okay but too farfetched story that was short but somehow still felt slow. It did feel like a Bo1 spinoff or cousin of Bo1 rather than sequal. I wasn't a big fan of bo2 but it had good parts.
also length, campaigns need to be longer man. Earlier CODs used to have longer campaigns.
@@DA-te7xe nah cw had an amazing campaign, way more fun than the boring repetitive norm for cod games
Playing it on realistic was very tough. I debated more than once on lowering the difficulty but glad I didn’t. Unfortunately there’s no achievement/trophy for realistic difficulty completion.
I like that you get to choose (the main part of) the ending with a simple dialogue choice though. I thought the side missions for the bonus parts were cool. But the story arch where you have to get everything right for the good ending like in Black Ops 2 was too difficult and tedious for me. Especially as you only had limited amounts of tries at doing it. The main thing I disliked about Cold War was that the campaign was a bit too short and I would like to get to know the backstories of some of the characters more, mainly Adler, Perseus and Bell. Other than that it was unexpectedly good. I’m guessing they’re going to continue this rebooted story line...
I’ve already seen tons of videos on this, but I personally like to think that Bell survived the headshot. He, the persona of “Bell”, dies but he manages to cling to life, albeit as an amnesiac. Warsaw Pact reinforcements arrive during the aftermath of Solevetsky and, seeing a promising candidate for brainwashing, implant memories to construct the “Stone” personality in multiplayer.
I know it’s cliche, but it helps me to look at the ending more positively.
Yea i think stone is bell and no one will change my mind
Yeah now that I start adding things together, stone is definitely bell. Same clothes at the ending scene as far as what's on his arm@@Antpoison

Not a bad theory about Adler, but he said "it's nothing personal" meaning it could be someone above him in the chain of command
Hudson.
Either Black or Hudson made the call. I feel like Alder would keep on using him but eventually would kill him.
No he literally means the mission comes first "above all else" and he's killing you to keep the operation covert.
Hes dealing in what we call "implied" task. His commander gives him discretion to do what he deems necessary. This is this difference between a soldier and an operator.

*the first call of duty game where u can betray ur team*
*And become a .... COMRADE*
POV: You're General Shepherd but on BO
But are they really your team
@@elliottisaac7580 yeah
Well it shouldn't really be betraying your team if you were were never truly loyal
I’m actually very unsatisfied with the campaign endings. You really lose either way if you think about. The good ending is when you save Europe and save the day but you still get turned on by ur own team. Even when you turn on Perseus for the sake of millions of lives you still find a knife on your back. When you lie to Adler without telling Perseus, you still die along with millions of other people and possibly caused a world war. And when you lie to Adler and tell Perseus, Yeah it feels good to kill Adler, but what did it cost? Not only did you kill millions of innocent people and potentially cause a world war. But you also kill Woods and Mason, the characters that U loved since you were 10 years old, like they were just regular enemies in a normal mission. It really bothers me that the campaign was designed in a way that no matter what you do, you still lose. This campaign is the perfect example of “You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.” But not in a satisfying way at all. In a way, I felt cheated, But non the less; I still think it’s a great game.
Not all games have to have a good ending. In a way, these are probably the most realistic endings to such games; war is deception at the end of the day, so if anything BOCW portrays that brilliantly.
That what makes the ending brilliant imo. Either you do the right thing, but at the cost of yourself, or you join the bad guys, and they treat you better than Adler
@@ashhabimran239 Good ending does make 0 sense story wise though. Bell was already completely fine with the nuke plan. Theres nothing that happens during the story that would change that, his mind was already okay with the deathes of millions to empower the Union and cripple the States and any 'empathy' for the other side gained during the story would be banished when he learned how much he was defiled and brainwashed by the americans. The ambush or betrayal death endings are the only ones that would happen plot wise.
To be fair. You don't see Bell actually die. 20 bucks says when the next black ops comes out it will continue off of this point. I'm betting bell is alive. Perseus is still alive and we got a job to do.
And people thought Mass Effect 3’s endings sucked.
Anyone get a zombies reference during the “flashback” by ignoring the narration and not going in the cave?
First play through, 3 in the morning, and storming outside. I’m loving the new campaign and I’m happy to almost 100% the campaign in under 24 hours, when Adler tells me to go in the cave I say ‘fuck that, hatch looks like fun’ and the hatch was fun, super fun until I got the shit scared outta me so bad I turned off my tv and Xbox and went straight to fuckin bed.
@@noahkarcanes7851 I'm surprised you can sleep after that

Well bo3‘s campaign was badly made but not that confusing imo

The second ending where the nukes go off, would fit perfect with COD-Ghosts
Isn’t ghosts like 60 years after Cold War?
@@roejogan2585 I'm pretty sure they're not even happening in the same timeline. Although since they started rebooting the franchise, the timelines are completely messed up and intersect with each other anyways.
@@21shanks but the ghost story was in the future with a orbital laser. Cold War is green light Nukes in the 80s
@@roejogan2585 i think what they're saying is that the ghost's story line starts when the energy deserts fell due to unknown circumstances and for some reason, many countries thought it was america that did it and decided to attack them
ghosts takes place in 2023 btw, and the federation silently formed before attacking mexico and then attacking america with their own satellite, but it's never stated when the deserts collapsed, when the fed attacked mexico or even formed in ghosts, so it could've happened in the 1980s
@@roejogan2585 But it would be the reason because the resources that made other countries rich fell and from there the federation was born, the resources were lost by the nuclear that were released
I felt Adler as a brother then he frickin shoots me I’m like frick u Adler “restarts campaign to kill Adler”
Oof highlighted comment
Oof i never liked him he rubbed me wrong on the first mission
Popped him immediately after the first ending with tears in my eyes. I’m with you bro, he did it to himself
Actually, no one knows who shot who because when the bullet shot the screen turned white
@@ApexOrSomething actually in slow mo you see both guns go off none lived

Nah fam it was never personal
@@elitespartnops1149 bell: n-nani!?!?
*"i hope you understand"* - a certain person in a cod mw game
Faster than makerov betraying yuri
What if that standoff is actually a memory of Adler turning on someone else and Bell is replaying it in their head? If Adler can give a memory of his to someone else that makes them see it from outside of his perspective, then perhaps Bell can see that happening in Alaska. I mean, why would Adler honestly go thru the trouble of finding Bell in the rubble after the attack and not kill him while he's vulnerable, just to kill him later when he is armed? And don't anyone say Alder has ethics. He brainwashed someone to think they were someone else.
I believe I was because he couldn't risk bell surviving under the rumble and coming out to find Adlers secrets and exposing him but he also couldn't have anyone else know why he would kill bell if they found them so he brought them to where they were alone to finish them off in secret were no one was going to look in to there death that or it was a sort of symbolic send off to Adler
So technically, when one cod character betrays another.
Its called "This person did a Shepherd on us"
Ayo lmaoo
Adler really did pull a Shepherd on us
@@rezatariq8737 real question is who did it better tho ?
Makarov pulled a Shepherd on Yuri too.
@@Prodbyzayn Og Shepherd still gives my heart a good shake of sadness. Gotta go with that. 😭😭😭
Fun fact: in the last Vietnam mission there is a zombies related scenario, could Adler be hiding that
Edit: to anyone who thought this was more than just a nice cool fact that maybe people will try and go find and a joke, why?
wait a minute
What u mean? Plz answer
@@luiscorreia9716 during the first scenario instead of going to the big red door, go left towards the statue, theres a little hatch you can open, follow that path in the hatch and you can fight off zombies
Yeah, I got that too. I went down that dark tunnel, and it wat pitch black. All I had was a pistol, a flashlight, and VERY limited vision 😂
No, that’s just Bell trippin.
Okay but nobody wants to talk about how I got jumped scared by a zombie in the campaign
I you mean the secret door thing in the weird mission with adler telling you what to do? Bro that was such a cool easter egg
Sacred the absolute hell outta my drunk self lol
I was so scared bro😂
I was like wtf
Same
This is why I love Black Ops 1,2 and Cold War. Love the story telling behind all of this.

Perseus Where is he?, What did he say bell?!
Black Ops has always been on some trippy shit
If you are referring to Adler talking about his scar, he changes his story every time you ask. He's lying about how he got it.
"You wanna know how I got these scars?"
i have a theory. he actually got it in vietnam, but doesn’t tell u in the memory cz in the vietnam throwback, u don’t see him with scars
@@gpj9353 he's been there for a decade so....
@@awesomeness6761 I hate Adler I WILL NEVER PLAG HIM IN MULTIPLAYER EVER AGIAN
@@awesomeness6761 been where? in vietnam?
When you’re in the warehouse you can ask Adler how he got the scars and he says , “The girl wasn’t worth it.”Also, he says he fell in with bad people so I don’t know if he lying about the scars or not.
Yeah, he has 3 different stories. Who knows if any of them are actually true?
hypothetically, nuketown will decide the cannon ending of this game
Why
Not really. The nukes were dropped in europe
Wasn’t nuketown just a nuclear test site though?
Nuke town is just a nuclear test site in Nevada. There’s no connection to Operation Green Light.
“I ended up simping for Park”
Same.. Same..
I ran out of time deciding so I didn’t save anyone
Who didn’t simp for park
Funny I choose lazar
@@mikebernhardt92 sorry what, I think you are in the wrong chat
@Helen Park literally made this account to reply to this lol
I don’t like how there are “set” operators for Multiplayer. I just like the idea of being able to customise your operator
Yeah that's what's been bothering me. Why can't we go back to character creation? Ghosts had it. AW had it somewhat. They're trying to bring MP into canon but I think that's a bad idea. I just miss creating my own character to use.
@@Diamond_2403 yeah I hate seeing the same characters over and over again
@@lucashdgk7 nice username lel

It honestly makes complete sense to kill bell off, it’s just a hard pill to swallow. One of my favorite code ever
And why to join perseus in the other ending
@@hurricane7727 ?
Inkslasher: Says he saved park
Also inkslasher in the next cut seen: In a timeline where he hasn't saved either of them
he said he ended SIMPING for park
@@nellaalbarracin1560 but theres a scene quere neither lazar or park is on the bad ending. so my theory is that he really had trouble deciding who to save and ended up saving none. remember kids not making a choice is also a choice.
@@Xolar66 I did that myself. I was so focused on the decision that I didn’t notice the timer. I literally froze. On one hand I didn’t want to Simp. On the other, DID YOU SEE THE ASS ON HER?! Lol
@@brutusjudas5842 I SIMPED i didnt hesitate!! I would have felt so guilty leaving her there xD
@@Xolar66 women and children first sir! Nah, I simped hard
Maybe Adler gave you the memory that you died and so was able to delete your memory completly making you able to be used as a sleeperagent again.
Bro I was just thinking the exact same thing!!!!
Holy shit. That could work
hence: haRry sToNE
I mean he did say “when I ask u for one more, I hope u understand” I don’t think he really killed us
@@ggomezlope14 bell is for sure either dead or he got wounded and taken to be given a a whole another identity. and sent to live somewhere else. hence where comes in the theory of harry stone.
i thought the "evil" ending was a way better ending than getting shot by Adler
Idk im a aldler stan i loved the way he betrayed us
yeah.. Perseus makes you feel like a god
dude makes you feel like you’re his son
Adler had to betray Bell. It may be a shitty move, but there’s no way in Hell he could be let loose. Adler used Bell as a means to an end, and that end being saving millions- if not billions- of people. The US may be scum for their part in placing nukes in major cities across Europe in the first place, but taking one life over tons? I’d say taking Bell’s. Although now that I’m typing this, I’m thinking the evil ending is sorta badass in the sense that you could argue that you teach the US a lesson about the use of nukes: Don’t use them the way that you did or you could get fucked up. Eh, I don’t know. If I was Adler and managed to kill Bell, I’d go up to the President and tell him to stop with the shit of putting nukes around. “Look at what can happen!” I’d say.
@@ElTamex07 well said
when adler shoots me at the end it has different speech before he shoots he says "you have to make another sacrifise" who else had that
I did
maybe it's rng, kinda like the "goddamn onion" line from earlier in the campaign
Unpopular opinion: Perseus care more about our character then all the "good guys" combined
Soo true
@@slizzlmao5685 hi
True
True
Honestly I feel like Adler and everyone on the team cared about bell as well, not at first, but eventually they started to care about them and even considered bell apart of the team, but bell was a loose end to the CIA once bell remembers everything and Adler most likely killed bell since he would have been the only one willing to do it

@@callsigngoblin1921 sadly he never was a bad guy
But Bell is also in multiplayer , I’m sure that Stone and Bell are the same person and it’s connected to the story. The Cold War story reflects the black ops story , as Stone and Bell. Stone is former sas unit and now he works for soviets and Bell is former soviet/Perseus unit and now he works for NATO
Adler: *this town ain't big enough for the two of us*
or in this can Two guys with the same memory
@@brotherhoodofdefense8362 Two guys, one memory.
After doing the so-called “good ending”, I just had to restart the end sequence and sided with Perseus just to feel better. It worked, screw Adler and the others, except Woods and Mason

@@georgemcnally5040 Will our protagonist ever find out about the truth of the Frozen Forest? Find out in the next episode of Black Ops 3!!!
But seriously though. Like why make very important pieces of information hide within the loading screen text that zooms by very fast. Not to mention the story had no real overarching villain like Menendez, or Dragovich, Kravchenko, Steiner... I understand to extent what they tried to do, but the execution... train go boom.

Congratulations on the million subs !!
I thought it was really strange how in the first safe house mission there is a dialogue option to Park asking why she looks familiar. Pretty good foreshadowing.
so wait, why did bell say park looked familiar
@@AnExstravagancy because he remembered her from when he knew he was Himself and were trying to interigate him

They should do a DLC or something
@@dammadeit
Good idea
@@TheSuperPlaysAwesome Yeah this story has so much potential. i actually enjoyed these side missions puzzles like decrypt the floppy disk.
I wish, the main story would have the same thing like decrypt codes before you starting the next mission.
Maybe a bonus mission where you fight Perseus head on after you destroyed the broadcast towers because seriously, the main goal in the game was to capture Perseus, now I have the feeling the story isn’t done
@@zalmgames9900 true but in the bad ending they say it’s not one man but yer they did it to live it open but that means the next one will have to take place between 82 and 85
The break through mission was a crazy reveal that you were a Russian implanted with fake memories the whole time and Adler has his phrase-“we got a job to do” to keep you hypnotized- you were basically playing the whole campaign while on DRUGS and being mind controlled
Just like bo1 and bioshock with "would you kindly "
Not gonna lie, even though I haven't played all the black ops games yet, this was a really good one campaign wise. The story really had me absolutely loving the game lol
