I had no right to laugh that hard at the little explosion when David falls out of the tree. Probably played this campaign 10 to 20 times. I would think when it came out. Back on the old farm when I didn't have good enough internet for multiplayer The loadouts in the campaign were absolutely legendary.

[@Raiders1917]

Sour if you're up for it. A specialist play through of Infinite Warfare would be neat. Since it has a built-in crit system, its challenge would be built in, and it's always on veteran. Personally, I've done it once, and it was neat.

Definitely missed the original Woods voice actor. Shame he's not coming back for black ops 6. Genuinely makes such a huge difference to me when the voice actor changes on a character part way through. Nothing against the new guy, but to me it's never really the same character at all.

Hudson sounds all wrong even here in BO2. He was voiced by Ed Harris in BO1, who has a deep voice but was replaced by Michael Keaton. A great actor but his voice isn't nearly as powerful and doesn't fit the character model at all.

[@S0ur]

Lmaoo I was afraid I might get flamed for kinda memeing on the second bonus mission

[@johnnyharris6869]

I don't know why but that mission is brutal on pc. I had to restart the game to save my strike teams and finish it. I remember playing it on ps3 as a kid and it was much easier.

[@SeventhSilo]

[Spoiler warning for any commenters roaming around] Just to let you know, I noticed your bit of confusion at the reaction part seeing your ending cutscene in a part labelled as "Karma dies", despite living in your playthrough. During the USS Obama debrief it does say that all characters aboard the ship were killed when it went down, including Karma, Admiral Briggs and Salazar, so she did actually die in your playthrough but due to not completing the strike force missions, an inefficient drone counter attack was sent and resulted in the USS Obama sinking. Hope this serves as a bit of clarification if you didn't already know! Loved the vid btw

[@RevanNaut]

Yep, if the Strike Force missions aren't successfully completed, there's no way to save the Obama or any of the characters onboard (even if you did everything else right). If only the SF missions weren't a nightmare to play on Veteran.

Menendez in Black Ops 7: “Well, I wasn’t in that graveyard.”

[@walnzell9328]

Jonas Savimbi's family protested how he was depicted in this game. They claimed it made him look like a bloodthirsty warmonger. It does not. In fact it makes him look like a hero. How he's depicted here is nothing like him in real life. The battle is nothing like what happened in reality. The MPLA were the better armed and trained force and Savimbi was not the inspiring badass Treyarch made him out to be. If he was depicted accurately, his family would be right in saying it makes him look bad. The MPLA were hardly angels, but Savimbi... my God. He was everything the cold war CIA loved in a puppet. Violent, fascistic, downright psychotic. He does not deserve the worldwide appeal this game gave him. I highly recommend The Frosty1's video on this game.

[@AdamKlownzinger]

Ummmm the MPLA was significantly more violent and tyrannical than Savimbi

[@walnzell9328]

@@AdamKlownzinger I would say, at most, they were equally brutal. Like sure, down with the MPLA. I just wouldn't dare replace them with Savimbi's faction.

[@liammech6694]

2:12:10 Only now realizing that's probably a callback to what Woods (imaginary Reznov) said to Mason after Woods' *death* in BO1. "I got you, Mason. You're ok" He switched Mason to "Kid" but he's still talking to a Mason, so I think it's intentional.

[@ct578]

Even though I think I’ve played every single campaign you’ve shown, THIS is the one that got me feeling the most nostalgic. Crazy to think this game is almost 12 years old, I still remember it like it was yesterday.

[@Stynklord]

The forced gun game idea is super good! If you could make it work somehow, I'd love to watch that!

[@annadelsiena]

IIRC if you do all the strike missions, you end up killing Zhao who's like a rogue Chinese general. And then the Chinese government sends in jets and drones to help defend the Obamna as a thank you I guess since Karma is technically still on the obamna, she died when it got destroyed in your ending

[@AGnar0k]

It's actually good to practice the Strike Force missions using Replay Mission feature, before actually playing them during the campaign. You get infinite retries on Replay Mission for the Strike Force missions, so it allows you to practice different tactics and strategies to get the most effective one that you can apply during the campaign with the limited retries. Very helpful to get the good ending.

Another amazing upload. This is perfect timing for me- ten years ago, I graduated high school and bo2 was one of the things I bought to celebrate, along with my first xbox live subscription. For a few months before starting college, I had a ton of fun with both the campaign and multiplayer of this game. This video is a nostalgia overload for me, because I'm not sure I've played the campaign again since then. I remembered most of the flashback missions, but some of those 2025 ones were a lot fuzzier lol Never stop with the Woods onion jokes, I laugh every time.

[@gldni17]

In terms of canon regarding Mason, it's still not actually confirmed whether he lived or died in canon by the time of Black Ops 6. The story of Black Ops 3 either outright states or strongly implies that David killed Menendez in the last mission, leading to the Cordis Die uprising, which was put down at some point. Then again Black Ops 3 is less interested in being a futuristic geopolitical thriller and more interested in being as close to a "cyberpunk" story as any CoD campaign has ever been, so it's kind of an outlier.
