Man it's so sad they are an indie company with limited resources. There was a bug in MP where the icons for voice chat just would not go away so after about 5 people talked the entire right side of your screen was just obscured by VC icons that didn't go away until you restarted. This bug was in the game for at least 2 months straight it felt like. If only a AAA gaming company with an abundance of manpower and money to spend on the series would pick up CoD, then they could maybe afford to take risks or hire people who know how to code. Here's hoping the franchise blows up in popularity instead of being niche.

It truly is weird how masturbatory this game is over its characters, especially the legacy characters. I think a large part of it comes from the fact that 141 feels like it's just Price, Soap, Gaz and Ghost, where the original 141 had dozens of named members, who, although not nearly as prominent as the aforementioned, spoke now and then, and were at the very least there. It also made stuff feel a bit more real, that you weren't some invincible group of unstoppable badasses, with how you lose Meat and Royce in the favela, and Ozone and Scarecrow at the safehouse. As short as their time on screen was, they ultimately added to the experience.

The fight only broke out after the 'detained' bit was revealed, it's really not fair to say they started that fight. Then it was followed up with him executing random women and children in the mission, so they clearly wanted you to see him as evil.

re: 15:18 "Why are the shadows so grainy" -- MW2022's engine experiences temporal artifacts on screen space effects such as SSR, SSAO, SSLS, and DoF. You can see it in multiplayer too, when you shoot weapons - the muzzle flash lights up local shadows on the back of most guns which are artifacted to shit and look grainy. Turning off screen space reflections, ambient occlusion, local shadows, and depth of field is the only way to get around these artifacts, because it's simply how the engine does them.

I just played the originals again and i have to say the campaigns are still to this day so awesome. Honestly my favourite missions are the Ramirez ranger missions. I just dont get any of that feeling from the new games. I think someone said it here that because every character is a badass now, none stand out as much.

When this game came out everywhere i looked I saw people raving about how the campaign was great and one of the best in a long time. So i bought it, just for the campaign, and i never finished it. It's awful, like the AI and some of the set pieces are so stupid. Like the mission where you're defending the downed helicopter, and all the bad guys just walk out of the fog, like 30 feet from the heli, with APCs and everything and somehow lose to like 6 guys with rifles. Half the enemy soldiers just walked right up to me and started shooting me, like they didn't look for cover or anything, they ignored all the Ai. It felt like a really bad game from like 2004.

Yep, I was somewhat committed to a revisit like that, hopefully before the end of the year

@@S0ur I don't think your thought will have changed much

So let me get this straight. The game requires 125 gigs to install (per steam) but it itself admits (1:09) that the entire campaign takes up less than 30? Man, those skins must really be eating that memory huh

If it's like MW2019 I believe the actual culprit is just uncompressed audio.

Possibly. Though ridiculously unoptimized memory usage is getting more and more prevalent throughout the AAA industry

dude, ive been around since you did that one video on ww2 where you acted like a bot on the d-day war map and actually managed to not get shot. your videos are just as hilarious to this day, if not more keep doing what youre doing man, its been a journey watching this channel

Awesome playthrough as always Sour! Laughed my ass off :)

Aww hell yeah! Absolutely love your vids dude!

2:10:20 The voice line by Erikson is so funny to me because that's Yuri Lowenthal aka Spider-Man lol

AW was the first vid I actively tried to get all the camos. I was stuck on the maav rocket launcher and watched your videos and sought your videos for advice!

Sending Cruise missile to a Developing Country in the middle east is the most idiotic thing I’ve ever heard

Your reaction to the name drop at the end had me giggling through the entire rant section. You make 3 hours feel like roughly 20 minutes. xD

switching to your shield is always fasting than reloading your save is such a classic line 😂

My friend keeps trying to get me into CoD, but everytime I think about installing it and going through that mind melting main menu, I instantly kill the idea.

20:30 fun fact, cartels do actually put logos on their drugs. From my time in Baja Mexico there would be drug dealers who would always carry dime bags of coke with diamonds on them. It was apparently a way for the dealers to designate which cartel they with with quickly

10 dollars worth of coke. Is nothing. Absolutely nothing. Not even a full lines worth.

there's something very un-self aware about there being death quotes from the in game characters mixed with quotes from people like charles bukowski and t.e. lawrence.

Man even though MWIII sucked watching you go through this again made me realize this was just as mediocre as it was the first time I played it lol

Your reaction to Makarov at the ending was hilarious lol

That kayaking journey sounds like some real Resident Evil shit.

More like Silent Hill or Cry of Fear

At this point it would be cooler to just have an entire infinity ward Cod campaign focused on the Extinction game mode from Ghosts.

Yup. It sure was. Glad to see you back tho. I let my 6 year old son play “Black Tuesday” on OG MW3 today.

Bro “Typical Police” SENT me. Also I didn’t realize in my initial playthrough how much this just screams “TV show writers.”

I honestly really liked this campaign but I'm enjoying your commentary even more.

This half a minute retrospect of OG trilogy perfectly showcases why it is superior to new ones.

We need to see a playthrough of the mother of COD: Medal of Honor.

you got so lucky with the prison wall rappel prompt. mine wouldn't show up softlocking me since i was on realism and the snipers are both invisible and fain ramping damager the longer you take to get down the rope, and after spending waaay too much time on it for the first time in maybe a decade i lowered the difficulty. i had to lower it all the way down to very easy so i could live, since i had to wait for the Ai who went on the rope to get off the rope at the bottom. like it the AI froze or something on it for a good couple of minutes. absolutely miserable campaign mission.

I knew exactly what animation you were talking about. I feel like a fossil lol

the comment you made about the music resonated with me as well, felt like there were hardly any good tracks and hardly any music during gameplay; the game's composer, Sarah Schachner stopped working with infinity ward due to clashes in direction, i think she didn't like the absence of music in the campaign, mwII is the last cod game she will have worked on

I dont know if someone has said but shephard is played by the guy who voiced Overlord in OG MW3. (he also played a pilot in black hawk down). Im parapharasing but you might remember him from this: "Sand Bravo we're reading 70 bogeys in you sector" to which the other admin laughs as he can't see anything on the radar and they have a few more back and forths before SIERRA DELTA shouts about " how the hell did they get through". One of my favourite scenes because of the Voice acting. He also plays OVERLORD in MW2 during the burger town mission i believe.

1:07:00 How are there mines behind the cars that blow up to mines? What did they luckily swerve past the first 10 they saw but that last one just so happen to get them

Shepherd seems recognizable because for some strange reason they didn’t have the og shepherd do it. Instead they pulled the other nostalgia card and got overlord from the og MW2. Just imagine him saying “overlord actual” and it’ll all come right back.

8:25 Glenn Morshower(shepard) was also Overlord in mw2(og) and was a mp announcer in Bo2

It's been almost a year since I played this... I cannot believe that they STILL haven't fixed the massive lighting bug that's been in since release. Wait no, scratch that, I'm not surprised at all. Typical Activision at this point. Why fix things when you can just sell more shiny objects to the idiots that still buy and put up with this crap. Depressing.

This dude is the best at cod campaigns he’s too funny 😂😂

W video love these play throughs

Watching the campaign of this game makes me think they watched the Sicaro movies while writing it.

thank you sour for putting yourself through this pain for us lmao

2:57:29 is just an absolute rush of nostalgia

That comment "It's good that the heroes didn't die"... Modern media has made death in stories a taboo in order to just recycle characters instead of upping the stakes. And people eat it all up, if only they understood that death of a liked character is one of the best ways establish a villain (disregarding the Soap kill in the new MWIII)

i played this on realism after beating it on normal and oh my god i cant imagine playing these missions without prior knowledge of where enemies are

oh boy cant wait for you to play mwiii, its gonna be a hell of ride
