20 INSANE Hidden Details In Call Of Duty World At War

[@DodgyKaede]

You missed a very rare unique detail, on the pacific mission with the flamethrower sometimes (albeit rarely) the soldier who are burned instead of saying "fire!" or "hot!" in Japanese they will use Indonesian because some of the soldiers are Heiho soldiers (forced conscripts)

[@Doyle-]

In the Mission "eviction" if you wait a little bit before you attack the first german soldiers, you can hear how they are talking about the bad situation they are in and the plan to flood the Metro system, because they think the soviets could use the Metro system as a way to reach the Königsplatz

In the Vendetta mission, when you and Reznov are finished sniping the Germans, you can head to the back of the fountain and find the Soviet Soldier raising his head is now gone. Cool Detail I found while playing. Also in Breaking Point, you can see some of the Japanese Soldiers are wearing older uniforms, most notably the ones wearing peaked caps, they are not present in any other of the other Pacific Theatre missions.

[@NTLuck]

Another interesting detail in that first mission you mentioned is that some of the "Japanese" troops are actually Indonesian and even speak Indonesian when they attack you or when you kill them.

[@Demikat8A11]

And if you burn them they will scream "API!" and "panas!"

[@R.T.P.akaT.P.R]

There's actually another detail pertaining to your choice of either shooting, burning, or leaving those nazis before you enter the subway. At the start of the mission "Downfall", Reznov will read a passage from Chernov's journal that will either assess Dimitri, the player character, as either positive, negative, or somewhere in the middle, depending on what choice you make. Definitely one of my favorite details. I remember the first time I got a different assessment. I was totally surprised & impressed. WAW is a masterpiece.

[@lmcgregoruk]

Chernovs diary entries. April 30th 1945 When he first spoke of Dimitri, Reznov told tales of a hero, someone we should all aspire to be like, his bravery on the battlefield is beyond question, but he has also shown mercy, amidst the brutality of the Red Army, he is indeed a hero. April 30th 1945 When he first spoke of Dimitri, Reznov told tales of a hero, someone we should all aspire to be like, his merciless brutality defines him only as a savage, just like the rest of the Red Army, he is no hero. April 30th 1945 When he first spoke of Dimitri, Reznov told tales of a hero, someone we should all aspire to be like, at times I have seen him show mercy, and at others act with complete brutality, I do not understand him, perhaps heroes need not question their actions.

On Little Resistance there is also another bunker on the left that if you go in it, you'll see a Japanese soldier pull the pin on a grenade and blow himself up, opting to die with honor rather than be captured, or he has seen way too much

But at the same time Desmond doss would help anyone he saw whether Japanese or American and that was part of the courageous wit that earned him the Medal of Honor.

[@hernanreipp3321]

​@@halfgecko3202And the biggest irony about that is it wasn't a japanese idea, but a russian one. In the Russian-Japanese War, many starved/wounded russian soldiers trapped on the hills (like in Port Arthur) by the japanese troops. They go with their hands up or one next to his stomach "begging" for help or mercy and when the enemy get close to them, they just remove the safety ring and blow with them. Even in the manga Golden Kamui have a chapter from that conflict that show that.

[@martind5653]

It's remember to know historical context. World at War used to be underated because it was "another WW2" game at the time, when market was full of them and there was many CoDs from WW2 before except first modern warfare that finally changed formula and blew everyones mind. So people were really... frustrated and indifferent at time for another WW2 shooter, that's why nobody apraciated it at the time, but it was crafted masterfully. Not like Last 2 WW2 jokes from CoD frenchise.

[@shcdemolisher]

Yeah that last one was SHIT compared to this beauty of a game.

[@roderickstockdale1678]

@@shcdemolisherit was good but naturally it was toned down being a typical ETO GI story, they ALWAYS downplay those!

[@Argacyan]

I'm old enough to have been around back then and Modern Warfare releasing a year prior caused a massive amount of modern-war shooters to be released by the time World at War came about. People did treat it as just another WW2 game while eating up by-then "just another" Modern Warfare 2 a year later, probably because the boom was relatively new.

[@DanielLopes-uo7qo]

Call of duty 2, despite having less detail than World At War and being older, is also one hell of a great game, its 4 character campaign, and some of the most interesting characters like Cpt. Price, Pvt. MacGregor, Pvt.Braedburn and Sgt. Randall, and also the missions with multiple objective choices, the music, it was crazy man.

Yeah there was a moment during my first playthrough that I just couldn’t beat because the enemies just kept coming. I couldn’t reload fast enough. I kept dying. Usually after so many attempts I would get mad and call bs. Not this game. I hit the pause button and was like holy cow this is fun even though I’m ass.

[@FoolishPedro]

One cool detail you missed in Little Residence is a unique animation just before you assault the large building torwards the end of the level. There is a line of US troops taking cover and one of them has their helmets shot off, which they then scramble to put back on. Only rescently found it myself.

[@endless_limes]

That's in the mission Hard Landing when entering the building before the airfield!

[@scottjs5207]

[@adamcostogames7644]

[@fudgerounds91]

Another thing about the Black Cats mission, you can actually see that it's brighter at the end of the mission than it is in the start, because the sun is rising. Apparently, this was actually quite the difficult thing to do in the World at War engine.

[@Xx_Tuberculosis_xX]

For <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="309">5:09</a>, I believe it was probably the original way Dmitri was supposed to find out about the officer and decide whether or not to assassinate him. Before Reznov was even an idea, possibly. The devs likely just forgot the trigger was still in the game and didn’t remove it.

[@alexsilva28]

Good theory, could be. Although instances of dead bodies talking and moving in the COD series are not uncommon

The co-op campaign on World at War was a blast to play. At the end of the Berlin campaign, a pillar fell on one of my team-mates and we had to restart the level after laughing for about ten minutes straight.

Not sure if you mentioned it before but in regards to the german prisoners you can choose to kill or not… In the final mission intro, Chernov will read his journal to the player and will show the player that He has been watching you the whole time too. If you have shown yourself to be cruel and execute prisoners, he would call the player out for being as blood thirsty as the enemies you kill. But if you show mercy, he would write about how you are a true hero. If you kill some but spare others, Chernov will write about how he’s confused by the player

[@doguesrefoglu4865]

Another important detail is about rescuing injured soldiers in Black cats. If you save them, the crew will say good things about you at the end of the mission. But if you don't, they don't seem to like you very much

I remember playing competitive mode on <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="199">3:19</a> and saw this group of People run to the left side I was like "What the hell are they doin?"

This game was very underrated when it came out. This game came out one year after the massive success that was COD 4: MW. For people that don't know basically since the first Medal of Honor game released in 1999 the 2000's gaming market was oversaturated with WW2 games. The first 3 Call of Duty games were WW2 games too and COD 4 felt like a breath of fresh air. Even though some successful modern war setting games existed before, COD 4 still felt like the first huge mainstream modern war game and it changed the market. When World At War released many people didn't want to go back to WW2 and didn't buy it. I think many people missed out on one of the best WW2 games ever.

[@mokkefuhua9928]

In the Black Cat mission, one of the most unnoticeable detail about that mission is that when you shoot the Japanese ships, it contained multiple prisoners of war who were in an inhuman condition or diseases that were brought from the Unit 731 Experiment.

"You did all that with just a knife? Remind me to never piss you off" Not World At War, but my favorite detail in Cold War

[@liltoaster7308]

One detail that I thought was near was the plane that crashed in the beginning of little resistance. During the real invasion of Peleliu, specifically above Beach White 1 where the game takes place, a TBM-1 Torpedo bomber from squadron VT-51 of the Carrier USS San Jacinto and tried dropping ordinance behind the beach. Somehow it's bombs detonated prematurely though and it blew up out of the sky, similar to what we see in the game. Another cool detail is the inclusion of the number 115 in cod lore. This again ties back to the battle of Peleliu in real life, the battle where some of the Marines missions take place in-game. PFC. Eugene Sledge of 5th Reg. 1st Marine Division recalled in his memoir that the temperature soared to 115°F during the battle. This number was later used in the game for element 115 in zombies.

I always thought the double barrel thumb hold was cool when it first came out.

[@gageroberts5513]

After seeing how much i missed especially the fact i can change the outcome of chernovs journal is enough for me man. My fav cod campaign ever, always looking for a reason to replay

[@BigDexMedia]

The rats detail is very interesting because the rats are alerting you of incoming signals of something happening but it’s also very missable

[@themooreclan1220]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="337">5:37</a> looks like a guy throwing a grenade

[@WeinerBerg64]

I love these Easter eggs. They show me what I missed in games that I played

[@randomthe521st]

During the detail at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="234">3:54</a>. You missed another one of Reznov's comments on Dimitri's sniping. If you manage to kill all soldiers and the dog without reloading Reznov will be impressed, remarking that Dimitri is a "true marksman"

[@MrIllusive]

To me, the Grim Reaper blood splatter looks more like someone with wings playing a flute.

[@stephenphillips7699]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="324">5:24</a> is interesting because in the film, Enemy at the Gate with Jude Law the same scene is played out there as well and film came first.

Did anyone else see the QR code? <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="588">9:48</a>

[@samnajafi7746]

Yes

[@randomstormtrooper2945]

It’s a link to his clips channel.

[@gabegoldswain]

This is by far my favourite cod. An absolute masterpiece. If they remastered it, I would be so happy.

[@huflungdung9334]

You don't need them to. It is still a nice-looking game and perfect as it is. Please don't feed the corporate money hungry machine. You could pick up a 7th Gen console and a copy for just a small amount more than you would pay for a remaster. It is still very much alive and people will play custom matches for less popular game modes.

We live in a Timeline where Gary Oldman says "No scope, nice"

[@TheBeardedAtheist]

WaW had to be my favorite. Stuck in my head so much over the years. A classic. That and Big Red One

[@stigrabbid589]

The Natural Hunter line is the one i got in World At War when doing the Vendetta mission, i didn't know there was an alternate line if you are slow, etc.

[@mcdoink123]

Black Cats. Some of the dialogue will change depending on how many sailors you rescue near the end of the mission.

[@BlazeLycan]

Blood splatter looks like a soldier to me. Head is a helmet, and to the right he's aiming down the sights of a gun.

[@flowerpower003]

agreed

[@thedaniel4999]

Another neat detail you missed that’s similar to the final Japanese one you mentioned is we see a similar thing with the Germans. They look progressively more beat up as the campaign progresses

[@thegameradic8916]

The one’s where you spare or kill the surrendering soldiers also reflects you characters in the end as Chernov will mention your character Dimitri’s actions and will either call you a hero, evil, or in between

[@BouncingJewel]

In HITMAN 3 in the mission of HITMAN 1s campaign "CLUB 27" in the bathroom of your room you will find a scale and if you stand on it it's tells you weigh "47".

[@DarkGamingTB1]

Interesting details. In chernov's journal he will say different things, and you find this out at the end of the game. If you gave away your position during vendetta, let the German troops bleed out during their land their blood, and shoot the german soldiers, he calls you a hero, do one of these and the rest opposite then he says "maybe a hero doesn't question their actions." Now doing all of them opposite, he calls you a brute like the rest of the red army. (1. Good ending 2. Neutral ending 3. Bad ending) All of these counts as different endings btw

[@sethbettis4701]

The pistol guy early on was a reference to the Tom Hanks final stand against the tank scene in Saving Private Ryan

[@sailoroftheinternet3290]

You forgot to mention that the beginning of the vendetta mission is clearly inspired by enemy at the gate, where vassili snipes from a fountain

[@Shake_Well_Before_Use]

The intro lullaby can be heard faint in some parts of the campaign like in the water leak mission

[@justcallmemoof]

Back 4 blood came out October 12th. And on the mission “A Clean Sweep” (and probably others) Phillips watch shows the time <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="612">10:12</a>

[@abominatedfilms2970]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="341">5:41</a> it brings me several ideas what it looks like 1) Some sort of angel without feathers in it's wings, blowing into some sort of instrument 2) something similar to that medal of honors iconic boy sitting on the moon, only now with something on it's hands, probably a flute 3) someone doing a suicide, but most likely it isn't that

[@rickydhirawijaya]

WAW is the only COD game that depicted the true horror of world war 2 than any other COD title

[@tramlink8544]

in the aircraft mission youll notice at the end when youve saved sailors from the water that in the aid compartment of the aircraft there will be however many sailors you saved, lying in the bunks

[@archer8849]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="69">1:09</a> aww, we're so sorry to catch you when you weren't on that tree. we'll just politely wait, while you climb up there.

[@alexanderwalker3906]

Heres a few more coming from someone who’s played way to much of this game; In Little Resistance. After flanking through the bunker, if you head straight across to the tunnel entrance and head into the final bunker from that direction, there’s another injured Japanese soldier who when he sees the player primes a hand grenade by smacking it against his helmet (this was an actual method of priming them) before blowing himself up. In Hard Landing, the main building of the airfield (which also turns up in its multiplayer map version) is the exact building they used for Nacht Der Untoten the zombies mode. In Vendetta, when Daletski and the other soldiers are overrun, Reznov will tell you to hold fire and that there is nothing you can do. However if you try to kill the German soldiers or are too visible at the window, he will call you a fool for giving away your position. This dialogue is bugged and will repeat whichever you got when reloading checkpoints. The Walther p38 you can pick up after killing the sniper only has a few rounds left. However, if you fire them all, Reznoc wil say “take the shot, Dimitri” and the p38 will gain max ammo. There is a way out of bounds on Vendetta after killing the sniper. It allows you to run to the German command post which can trigger Amsel to spawn and run to his car, allowing you to run right up to him and kill him. This makes killing him with the pistol for the achievement much easier. You can also swim in the river you jump into at the end of the level but it is difficult to get back out. Also in Vendetta, Reznov’s injured hand shows he is missing his index finger. In wartime, especially ww2 on the eastern front, captured snipers would have their trigger finger cut off. Reznov ca be seen shooting with his middle finger for the rest of the game. His missing finger is also visible in Black Ops. On the map Dome, red army soldiers can be heard chanting “ura!” at the bottom of the pit/staircase. You can hear them either by jumping to your death or by flying down in spectator mode. It can only be heard inside the building and not on the streets outside (which are a low-poly version of the larger Reichstag map). When the game first came out, or if you did not have your console connected to the internet, the Nazi Zombies mode was hidden from the menu and only became available after beating the campaign, meaning when the mode started after the end credits, it really did throw you in the deep end.

[@skye_music]

They need to make a remaster of this game!

[@mrcaboosevg6089]

WaW and BO1 are by far my top to favorite CODs, they're by far the best overall games with the single player, zombies and multiplayer are just perfect
