There is a call of duty mobile skin called pow for woods if you wanna use that as a picture for the video

Question: How did Woods not see Mason was missing in that on bo2 mission. He might’ve thought twice before shooting “menendez”

[@EthanSeguin2]

Mason said something on coms (probably forced by mendedez) before he was dragged outside by the 2 soldiers but the coms were buggy that's why woods says "fucking coms"

[@hman9785]

Hudson was probably held at gunpoint by Menendez

[@EthanSeguin2]

@@hman9785 he was but mason was the one who said it so he was probably forced to because of Hudson or even David

[@TheWeeWooMan]

Thought that the reason why the BO4 version of Woods said that Mason was in the container was because Mason's grand daughter programmed Woods to think that roles were reversed but I don't know how to explain how the BO4 version of Mason was slowly regaining his old memories back

[@dimitricruz8151]

Yeah I thought the same thing because I thought Because she started bagging woods and convinced him to her evil deeds. Honestly Bo4 should have campaigned to explain the story but achievement wise I glad it didn’t.

I would love the black ops mystery continue, it’s intriguingly good. Keep the train rolling

[@DGAMING.1]

the first mission of Cold War also starts about taking down 2 targets who held Americans captive, and one of them (Arash) revealed he worked for Perseus so yeah the paths line up with the reason why woods was there with American soldiers

[@Deathmare235]

When did they say arash took soldiers prisoners, he only held hostages in an embassy

I don’t know either, I just made this comment before we even got to see anything about black ops 6 and where it took place.

[@SewingMink160]

We really need an in-between game where we play as Woods when he escapes Vietnam after he goes missing in Black Ops 1 and whatever leads up to Cold War and how he gets captured again in BO2.

[@KingShibe]

Black Ops 8 in the 70s

[@OVOJacob]

i wonder where Adler is during all this

[@marquellsanders3674]

My first thoughts when I heard da nang

[@ariaz16]

Maybe the next game Gulf War will fill in the blanks. They did a small reference for Adler during the rebirth island American invasion. In usual Black Ops style this will go back and forward in time. If they do, they can only go backwards from Gulf War I imagine.

[@ImpDraPalMod]

Adler said his group was just few miles from masons and woods team. I think the battle for tue Hill before bowman rejoins ?

[@TOXICYT2016]

Him and his crew fought during Vietnam just never cross paths with the og bo crew

[@Deathmare235]

I think they all died along with all the enemies there

@@Deathmare235 how?

[@RevisedGames]

Dude for real I thought I was the ONLY one who ever noticed that. Those POWs were real soldiers too, not just a figment of Mason's imagination like Reznov. Like why would the POWs not help breach the room with Woods and Mason to capture Kravchenko? And also how did the POWs just magically disappear lol.

[@Speedfreak239]

I've watched this one and the video you mentioned within it. For an 🇦🇴Angolan, history, geopolitics enthusiast and an international relations student as myself, both videos represent a precise in-depth dive into the Angolan civil war, it actually adds more layers to it, to be honest, you basically summarized ― ''In Search of Enemies: A CIA Story'' - John Stockwell,1974, without making it too complex. Thanks for always making such great, detailed yet interesting videos. Your meticulous approach on the Modern Warfare storyline is what got me here, it always amazes me how time after time you always point out interesting details!🤯 I believe games are more than just entertainment, as they're pure learning platforms. The existence of your channel is one big proof of that statement. ― ''The Latin word ludens is the present active participle of the verb ludere, which itself is cognate with the noun ludus. Ludus has no direct equivalent in English, as it simultaneously refers to sport, play, school, and practice'', - Johan Huizinga, Homo Ludens: A Study of the Play Element in Culture,1938. “The word "school" has a curious history behind it. Meaning originally "leisure" it has now acquired precisely the opposite sense of systematic work and training, as civilization restricted the free disposal of the young man's time more and more and herded larger and larger classes of the young to a daily life of severe application from childhood onwards”, Johan Huizinga, Homo Ludens: A Study of the Play Element in Culture,1938. “You can deny, if you like, nearly all abstractions: justice, beauty, truth, goodness, mind. You can deny seriousness, but not play”, - Johan Huizinga, Homo Ludens: A Study of the Play Element in Culture,1938.

[@RieCon25]

In the mission, Rebirth (BO1). You play as Alex Mason and team with "Reznov" to take out Steiner. In reality, Reznov was never there. It was just Mason. In some flashbacks, Reznov is in the crate in the beginning of the mission and sort of glitches to show Mason. If Mason was in Reznov's position, then who were we playing as?

[@Deathmare235]

Mason

[@trich86]

Frank Woods should work with Captain Price.

[@marcusalrand7937]

Yeah, there’s got to be more mysteries from the black ops universe.

[@Hunter664yt]

my question is did Hudson set up Mason death 1. Woods knew something was up with Hudson 2. in the e-mails on bo1 computer Hudson wanted Mason to be killed for various reasons 3. why does Hudson want Mason to join back to the Army let alone sent him and Woods to suicide missions because it was supposed to save Woods and go back to retirement not go spend several years back into the Army yes I know that Hudson was trying to project David but it does not make sense why keep Mason into the military if he didn't then Menendez would either be killed by woods during Nicaragua or Menendez would never go on a long path of vengeance it was Mason who deflected the grenade causing Menendez road for vengeance

[@OnBrandRP]

I really hope Black Ops 6 either tells the story of Woods while Mason left the military (leading into BO2) or of Mason's life after the canon ending in BO2 (so basically how tf he survived and where he was)

Woods: “I was nerve in that shipping container”

[@dimox115x9]

Sorry but I don't see the mystery on this one, Woods was captured in Vietnam then he was rescued and did Declassified missions + CW missions and then Mason retired and Woods decided to continue his soldier path and went to Angola by the order of the CIA to support Savimbi in this civil war but unfortunately he got captured by Menendez who is involved because he is nicaraguan and "Nicaragua" was involved at that time and helping the MPLA. And so Menendez wanted only to gain informations from Woods's Squad Team so Menendez can go on and build his empire and that's it. Then BO2 starts with Mason and his son and Hudson asking for his help and come back to the field to rescue Woods's team because the mission was undercover and unfortunately buried. Sorry but I don't see the mystery here everything was explained and when the actor said who are those guys, or maybe did i miss something.

[@TTV_Breezer]

The fact that Woods can go through all that, and then become an operator (again) not long after not only shows the size of his balls, as well as how mentally resilent someone like Woods is. Going from a vegitive-like state with insane trauma back to normal in a few years is just....fucking insane. And its also insane that stories like this happened IRL too.
