  • We're going back to 2003 to take on the first, the original, Call of Duty. I'd seen nothing about the game, and was not prepared for it to be one of the hardest Veteran difficulties of the franchise... Loved it.
    Edited full game commentary playthrough.

    Takes me back. I remember taking turns playing missions with my dad, uncle, and cousin every Thanksgiving. Every time someone would die we’d pass the mouse to the next guy to see if he can complete it. I’d spend all winter break playing United Offensive multiplayer, where you’d get to man tanks and jeeps and stuff. Man. My dad now has ALS and my parents had to sell my childhood home. Really miss those days when the world seemed so small man.

    I play COD 1 and COD UO all the time... both single player and multiplayer.
    The fact that he played the game on VETERAN earned my respect!
    What blew my mind, is the fact that he didn't know he could press F5 to manually save the game, AT ANY TIME!!! And he went through all that pain and never gave up!!!
    That is some NEXT level sh*t, and that i will never do it my myself.
    "The definition of insanity is to to the same thing over and over again and expect things to change"
    He took veteran into a whole new level, and that deserves to be called "The Sour Challenge".
    Man, if you played COD 1, you need to play COD UO (an expansion released by Activision), you "cannot" play COD 2 without playing the other half of COD 1.
    More guns, vehicles, ability to cook grenades/satchel charges, and its campaign matches COD 1's length and quality.
    I will be waiting for you to play it (just remember to hit that F5 button to manually save the game😂.

    Veteran difficulty in cod 1 is by far the hardest of any cod game specifically because it removes health packs from the levels. So you either need to go through the level only taking 2-3 hits or quick save often, and it really makes the vehicle sections challenging since you can’t really take cover. It’s really fun though

      @@shipuden97 Oh, I know exactly what you mean. Going from any other game - even one like Dayz for example - to HLL is like moving in molasses.
      Part of it I've discovered is the FOV making it seem slower - I usually put my FOV up to like 100+ - the games default is 90 (iirc) it doesn't seem AS slow at the default, but it's still a pace that will seem glacial to most gamers.
      It took me probably 10 or so hours to start getting into the game - and once I did not playing for a week+ and jumping back in is an adjustment in a way I've not had with other games.
      Before I really started to "get' the game, how it's supposed to work, and how the meta and culture of the playerbase is, I just took rifleman/assault/automatic rifle and gawked at the pretty explosions while trying to get kills and get immersed in the setting.
      After that I would take Medic or sometimes MG. The last classes I messed with were the support and engineer classes, because that requires undersranding of the game flow.
      So, with this fairly steep and long learning curve why bother? Well, a lot of the time you'll be getting your shit pushed in due to command incompetence, nonexistant squadleads, armor imbalance, team experience imbalance, and stream-sniping (don't play on streamer servers), when you get a good, authoritative squadlead, a competent commander, and squadmates willing to communicate and follow direction it is such a fucking high.
      At that point it doesn't even matter if you win or lose the match because you'll be having so much fun operating as a unit. It's even better if it's with randoms, it's like all the planets aligned and all the competent people found their way into one squad.
      You just need time... lots of time. Matches are looooooong.

    No health regen in this game's Veteran mode is BRUTAL.
    Not sure how many people noticed but there are a few references to characters from this game in newer CoD titles. Captain Price is obviously in the old WWII and new MW titles. Sgt. Foley in MW2 shares Cpt. Foley's name from CoD. In the MW2 mission "No Russian" your alias is "Alexei Borodin" (Alexei is the playable character for the Russians in CoD and Sgt. Borodin is the first significant character that you interact with in the Russian campaign at Stalingrad). Makarov from the MW titles shares Sgt. Makarov's name (Sgt. Makarov helps you survive the charge at Red Square in CoD). General Shepherd from the MW series shares the name of Major Sheppard from CoD (CO of your division and battalion). I might be missing more.
    The last mission in MW is also VERY similar to the mission "Eder Dam Getaway" from CoD.
    I miss when the developers at CoD would do stuff like this for their long-time fans.

    The original CoD and the United Offensive expansion are probably the greatest WW2 games of all time. Actually somewhat competent friendly AI (at least they can hit enemies) vs the solo MoH:AA trope. At least somewhat focused on actual historical battles. Fantastic multiplayer for the time.

    I remember playing all those games (MoHAA) and CoD as well as CoD2. Was so good, only played using the rifle or rifle melee, and was called a hacker. It was a compliment back then. In those days, there were hackers every now and then, but nowhere near the amount of hackers today. Servers were hosted, and they didn't tolerate hackers, unless the host was a hacker themselves. I miss those days. Clans were fun to play in, too.

    It was great video. I watched the whole thing. I hope you will play United Offensive and CoD 2 or even Medal of Honor Allied Assault (I know it's not COD game, but it's grandfather of all CODs so it definitely deserves playthrough).
    Overall watching you play was so nostalgic to me. It was first Call of Duty I played. After MOHAA it was groundbreaking. On battlefield there were friendly soldiers that would fight and die alongside the player. On 2nd level there is a guy dragging wounded fellow into cover in front of MG42 and if you are fast enough you can kill the gunner and save them, but if you are too slow then machinegunner just kills them. Also soldiers would communicate saying things like "MG42 on second floor!" or "Cover me! I'm reloading!". Today it may seem stupid to be exited by things like that, because everyone takes it for granted in COD or any other shooter, but at the time this was really something new, fresh and immersive. It felt like real war. Next game that topped that immersion for me strangely wasn't COD2 but FEAR, but it's whole different story. Golden times in gaming. I'm happy that I lived through them.

  • @boredman123

    I watched your whole video and afterwards decided to try this for myself. i'm halfway through the campaign and it is HARD, while it is possible to slowly move from cover to cover in order to advance, if you're in out the open it is a miracle to make it through sometimes, especially if further on in the level you have to take dmg (british bridge capture). The worst so far was the truck ride to the airfield, my god i never wished for the level to end so badly.

    I'm so glad that CoD 1 gets your recognition. I loved this game and had it in like, 2004 for PC and loved the campaign. I probably played hundreds and hundreds of hours of the multiplayer online mode. It had a thriving community of players and servers and in fact still does, but in like, 2013 they shut down the servers and fortunately, the game supported dedicated software for personally run servers. You just can't use the in-game browser to locate them. MW mods, jump maps, gun mods, and many more made this game last well beyond what the creators thought it would I'm sure. My favorite vanilla maps were Carentan, Bocage, and Railyard. Ship had a lot of love too but those maps have all been retextured and recycled throughout the years in other CoDs. RiP my physical disk of Call of Duty Game of the Year Edition, you occupied my childhood well into adulthood. I'll miss it plenty
