The idea behind the Spec Ops missions was incredible, they just made it so suffocatingly hard, and also didn’t let you create private matches with the big ones.
@@221Prohunter for me it was hard becasue lack of coms due to always having randoms, if they made private matches a thing and scaled the enemies to fit for how many players loaded in, i think this mode wouldve had a bit more love.
I did this with a couple friends when the game came out we did all of them plus the hard mode versions. The hardest one for me was the one where you go round the edge of stadium.
Yeah, that one was so rough because enemies were just spawning in every direction around you and the stadium has bugger all cover for an outward direction. Chuting onto the roof and cheesing it that way was the easiest way to do it if you didn't care.
Thank you for just playing games and having fun, Jack!! RUclips is full of "complaint-content" lately in regards to CoD and it's just so annoying. I really appreciate your content, because it's what I come to RUclips to enjoy - just a dude having fun on games. I really value that you avoid the drama and simply enjoy your time. Keep it up!!
Unfortunately that’s the CoD community in a nutshell, they’re some of the biggest crybabies in gaming. A day into MW2 beta and I already saw videos titled “Infinity Ward has to fix this ASAP!” Or “Modern Warfare 2 is DOOMED to fail if this doesn’t get fixed” and the video is just talking about some minor inconvenience in the game.
@@ia285 yeah Halo has got to be the worst. I get Halo Infinite doesn’t have a lot of content, however i also get that the devs are completely focussed on Forge and Co-Op. it should’ve launched a year later but oh well. Still got the best gameplay in the series.
@@GoBuddieGo Finally more people are starting to see this... perhaps I'm just from a different era of gaming, but games currently have never been better. It genuinely is so weird to me how critical everyone is over what is objectively a great game on the whole.
@@GoBuddieGo it’s the gaming community as a a whole. Cod, halo, battlefield, whatever. Everyone just complains all the time and can’t seem to find time to have fun.
At launch, these missions were impossible. So difficult. They made them easier but by then I could never get a full 4 man team to play it. I wish they'd let you queue into the missions with fewer than 4 people.
Especially since a few of them could be done stealthily, they would literally be easier to do solo than with a squad of randoms. I found a few guys that ran with me for a bit a while back, it was actually pretty fun. Especially doing the mission challenges for blueprints.
Whether it was always running out of ammo, snipers and suicide bombers one shotting you, or a juggernaut who refused to die and had perfect accuracy. These spec ops missions were imposssible at launch
Man, seeing Verdansk again legitimately makes me tear up. I have so many amazing memories playing there and no other game compares to what Verdansk era Warzone specifically brought. It was the perfect BR for me and the map had everything. It genuinely upsets me that Caldera is so terrible and sure, Rebirth Island and Fortune’s keep are cool, but they don’t even come close to hitting that spot that Verdansk immediately hit. MW 2 doesn’t feel right to me either so my Warzone experience heartbreakingly died with Verdansk.
I play this every single day since launch, there's nothing quite like this in any other game, so polished. Gets your aim and movement ready for rebirth!
I wasn't a huge fan when COD started making huge maps with BF style modes..but tbf I think they're getting better at it..I did have fun with MW2 beta and actually kinda looking forward to it
@@NPFfumbi yeah I was excited for 2042..they seem to be going backwards tho..they've actually allowed COD to catch up and even pass them when it comes to creating large functional maps..which is mind-blowing to me..I never would've guessed that in a million yrs..ik people will say oohhh but destructible environments!! yeah sure but I'd rather just have a smooth running server with stable FPS tbh..
Those modes are impossible without a squad of REALLY competent players. Played them a few times but I got teamed up with morons most of the time do I sacked the whole mode off.
Right, gave me the feeling I get in GTAO when I do a mission or hiest with randoms...it's literally the exact same, team makes all the difference. But the mode is fun.
man i miss when warzone was actually fun, i quit after chapter 2 or whatever and only tried it a few times but thats all, season 2 (when i got into warzone) to season 6 was the best, and the stadium opening up was the biggest thing.
MW19 was my fav COD and Spec Ops was fun as hell but hard as hell lmao then Warzone dropped and no one wanted to play anymore😂 It was fun! that's what I hope DMZ is but the whole map with more real players and more AI
When I played mw my favorite thing to do was make the ax-50 as small as possible and cqb quick scope with a tiny lmg. Stacking handling attachments was a lot of fun😂
The TTK an NPC in Spec Ops is RIDICULOUS! That's a big reason why I stopped playing, it was just unrealistic and beyond challenging. Just flat out impossible given the numbers of NPC's that would spawn and end up taking real players down faster than we could them...
I wish Spec Ops the mode was just a big version of the Clean House mission that you can play CO-OP on the Warzone map. You spawn at a military base, get your loadie, drive to the target location, clear it out in time before reinforcements show up, and peel out. Also a realism mode version would have been sick. ARE YOU READING THIS IW???
I pretty much played this all day long when I had my Xbox. Didnt want to rebuy MW for PC. Hope that MW II will bring us a similar/even better experience in spec-ops.
I love how there's actually good looking, modern weapons that shoot normal bullets. So good to see vs the Warzone weird dragon alien laser guns from 1920
I remember playing this before the warzone mode and map was released and me and a friend being shocked at how the whole map was in spec ops ages before warzone was released and anyone realised
Bro literally ALL they had to do to fix spec ops was lower the enemy health because those guys take like 12 shots to kill. Also increase the player health or stop giving the enemies aim bot and this mode would’ve been PERFECT
I’ve never been excited about spec ops until now. Still a lover of all things Zombies but last year The Zombies just didn’t hit for me. Vanguard was every bit what I wanted out of world at war “re-imagining +” but the zombies did not slap. Great videos. Stoked for late October.
i would say if you have a full squad (3 friends and including yourself) this spec-ops mode is amazing, it's not going to work if you play with some randoms coz of the minimal communication and doesn't know what to do, it's also the best place for farming weapons with just throwing thermite in Operation Strongbox where if you didn't cut the vault the enemies will spawn in forever and you can level up max in just one game
I know it's not the norm, but the first Spec Ops mission I ever completed was with 3 randoms... they all knew what we had to do and explained it to me while constantly communicating. One of those rare wholesome COD moments for sure.
It’s gonna be real interesting to see how that Tarkov like mode is gonna go in MW2. Being able to drop in and out at anytime, and either loot AI or backstab other players. Sweeping city buildings is gonna be intense.
The idea behind the Spec Ops missions was incredible, they just made it so suffocatingly hard, and also didn’t let you create private matches with the big ones.
too easy*
They were difficult at the beginning of when MW2019 came out but I thoroughly enjoyed them and completed them within a week.
@@kintsugittv2537 They were near impossible without a riot shield on your back when the game launched. Then they made it far too easy.

Does this mean this mode is no longer available?
@Mal Theri it’s not console exclusive lmao that was only when it released
@Mal Theri it's not. the game mode that was 1-year PlayStation exclusive was Survival when MW2019 launched
The game mode is available on every platform and it's played a lot since every cross platform cod is alive and still much played.
@@Bruh-bp6nn No it wasn't, Survival was.

that's one of the first one and it was AWFUL, I tried this mission like 20 times and never succeeded, still haven't even

Also makes you realize how far the game has come!
I want MW3 survival
Those Spec Ops missions were hella difficult to beat 🥵
@Anishinaabe 17 nobody asked you, sir.
@Anishinaabe 17 hush, let them enjoy themselves
I think they modified the difficulty because nobody was playing it. Then it was too easy, then they tweaked it back to being just right I think
@Anishinaabe 17 who asked
Only at launch. They nerfed the enemies significantly afterwards.
That leaving the DMZ zone animation is just pure amazing
facts
ia this from MW2?
@@beanerjack8937 no, is the spec ops of MW2019

The classic special ops you can 1-4 people
No idea why it didn't just scale the enemy count to the player team count
I can still get game now, in fact just finished all missions
Never really understood why many people hated Spec Ops I love playing it.
Great video Jack going to be back playing it tomorrow now 👍
People hated it because it was a massive downgrade compared to MW3 and IW didn’t make a single update to it since it’s release
It's hard as well
@@Gojirasu I agree it was very easy when released but got harder when updated.
I enjoyed it it was just ridiculously hard for no reason

Jack: That’s a grenade
Tom: Throw it back!

I’m a simple man, see a jackfrags video, I watch and like 🤷♂️
A simple man, but also, an unoriginal man
Co-op modes are always slept on. I wish they'd put as much love into co-op as they do for multi-player.
For everyone asking this is the Co-op from MW2019
When MW19 was fresh, my wife and I used to play these modes to warm up for multiplayer and had an absolute blast!
The time counter sound is pretty nostalgic, since it came from the older mw games
been playing co-op for ages, great way to rank up weapons, great fun as well
man i miss when warzone was actually fun, i quit after chapter 2 or whatever and only tried it a few times but thats all, season 2 (when i got into warzone) to season 6 was the best, and the stadium opening up was the biggest thing.
That’s what makes me nervous about all the game modes like DMZ in MW22. They just abandoned Spec-Ops with glitches and all.
After completing the campaign I played co-op. I was so late on Multiplayer in MW. Loved the Co-op
I love how Jack is like a little kid getting shown cool things for the first time 😂
Anyone know if you can still play this mode?
Man, I miss this game and the original Warzone before integrations. Good times.
I totally forgot about these, they were the best part of the game imo, ran through them all before even touching pvp multiplayer
Co-op has been slept on, people just didn't try. During the MW year of support I'd hop on occasionally, you could max level a gun in like two matches.
You guys sounded like my like my inner dialogue on Modern warfare 2 when getting to the 2 juggernaut stage by myself back in the day...
Very amusing.👍
The pentagon background music give me chills.
MW19 was my fav COD and Spec Ops was fun as hell but hard as hell lmao then Warzone dropped and no one wanted to play anymore😂 It was fun! that's what I hope DMZ is but the whole map with more real players and more AI
I used to love playing MW3 survival mode with my brother and friends split screen was great fun. Boy does it get ridiculously hard at time lol.
“1.35 MB that’s awful” hit me in the chest
When I played mw my favorite thing to do was make the ax-50 as small as possible and cqb quick scope with a tiny lmg. Stacking handling attachments was a lot of fun😂
Ahh man this brings back memories!!!! Played this missions with friends for hours and hours they were so fun
Feels good seeing new content on this map. Can’t wait for Verdansk to be remade someday in the distant future
Warzone mobile will feature Verdansk at launch
slightly deferent as it's the mobile port but still verdansk
These missions were incredibly fun when I first started. Loved every second.
What is the name of this mission?
The TTK an NPC in Spec Ops is RIDICULOUS! That's a big reason why I stopped playing, it was just unrealistic and beyond challenging. Just flat out impossible given the numbers of NPC's that would spawn and end up taking real players down faster than we could them...

Shenanigans with the boys, let's go!
The original spec ops mode in MW2 back in 2009 was something. Many memories playing that.
You’re always making such a quality content! Happy to learn from it and adapt those little things to my videos what you do so well!
Love the videos! You put so much time and work into them and they make my day better
I remember playing this back in the days pre warzone. When the lads and I got sick of multiplayer. Gets me excited for spec ops in MW2022.
I wish that people would still play these cause I can never find anyone to play them with anymore
This was sooo much fun playing with friends and the communication was necessary
Would you LOOK at the JUGGS on that tank! wow.
Wow I love the transition to the plane, didn’t even know that was in the game
In the 60s when that idea was really invented they called it Skyhook
i believe this mode had quite a bit of bugs and problem on release thus the reason why alot of people didn't play it.
With the addition of it having like 2 missions only or something on release
true
love the spec ops in this game i definitely cant wait to see if they improve it in mw2
Spec Ops are legit one of the most fun things to do in MW.
Also a great way to unlock / level up guns, especially in the Survival mode.
i loved these missions, getting some friends together to beat a mission was so much fun
Just live streamed this myself couple of weeks back. Just the word Verdansk brought me the most viewers I've had yet 😂 love this and your content

Right below multiplayer lol
this being side quest missions in the campaign journey needs to be the future of COD

Crazy how this looks visually better then MW2

VERDANSK IS HERE, JUST LET US PLAY IT!!!! that aside great video as always.
Coop is just the best in COD
It was really fun to work together with my friend in WAW
Shame not many games had optional coop in campaign
I loved this but I never had a good team good enough to beat some of these missions
Literally played all the spec ops before the mw2 beta came out, unbelievably fun!
dude when they were shouting for kieran i looked around like wtf, didnt expect that to happen today T-T
Loveing the music lol takes me back
I loved the Spec Ops in MW19. It's impossible to find a lobby for them on console these days, so I'm super hyped for the Invasion/DMZ mode in MW2022
