fun fact about the Negotiator mission: if you're playing coop you and your partner won't spawn together in the same room. Your coop partner will be in the first breach you need to breach, and they're in a line of people being executed. So it's up to you to save your partner before they get killed. It's a neat detail which really makes that mission memorable imo
As a self-proclaimed survival mode veteran, the ''meta'' is generally to use two LMGs (the L86 LSW and MG36 for their fastest reload times) with red dot sights, grip and sleight of hand. Fun fact, Exteme conditioning as a perk is useless in survival because jumping completely resets your sprint timer, a mechanic that doesn't exist in multiplayer. Depending on the map, camping is generally the way to go. Funnel enemies through a choke point on simple waves and run circles around the map on juggernaut waves (if there's choppers, take care of those first). You can thin out the horde of enemies chasing you with flash bangs + air strikes and claymores. After wave 30 or so, the rotation of waves stays consistent (on most maps atleast).
I've always ran either an SMG or an LMG and a striker (I'd use the striker for the juggs since it hit hard and it was semi auto) but if not the striker, I'd actually run the CM901 with the master key shotgun and a holo sight. It was so much fun to use
@@thealkemistofficial4817 Shotguns are effective in early waves, but by the time you reach wave 30 you’re shooting peanuts (and since you’ll be dealing with multiple juggs + normal enemies at that stage, isolating a jugg is tricky).
@@ScyrousFX you do have a good point on the shotguns in later rounds. I also thought the master key can be decent for weeding out the dogs when you're out of ammo, but I could be wrong on that
@@thealkemistofficial4817 Don't think I've ever tried that. I try to shoot the dogs as soon as possible, to minimize the risk of them blowing up near my location. Masterkey requires you to be much closer to them. Though another reason you might want to use the masterkey or grenade launcher on ARs is because you'll be holding the weapon from the underbarrel, which obscures your vision a lot less. It's one of those neat little advantages that goes unmentioned in older COD games.
Thank you for this S0ur. Ive only recently began watching your content but the dedication to do long videos like this prove that you're one of the very few content creators on this platform who really put effort and genuinity into what they create. We all love you bro. Hope you're stayin safe
I don’t normally watch 1-2 hour play through but there’s something about your commentating and humor that just make it so entertaining to watch! Started watching you on the 3 star videos and I love them. Just got done watching the WAW campaign. Keep it up my man. I support you 100% all love here :)
28:06 I have no idea why I found this so funny, maybe the combination of bots having a face off with the commentary just beautifully synced for a comedic moment for me☠️
So the saga is over. You do you, there’s a lot of us that enjoy the hell out of your content regardless of if you choose to play the next game or not. Remember, MCC is always on the table :)
Sour when I tell you I absolutely love ur vids I mean I’ve watched ur MW2 and MW3 spec ops vids so many times and now, this!? It’s like the perfect ending to the trilogy of getting all the 3 stars. Hope you’re doin great man thanks so much for what you do, a genuine person you are.
What are the odds I happen to click on your MW2 Spec Ops mission, go to your channel, and see that you uploaded this less than 30 minutes ago? Lets go duuuuuude
2:50 switching is always faster than reloading. Nice👌, you must be a member of the 141 14:30 outstanding pistol swap👌 18:35 breach and clear with one bullet 26:55 shield 👍 30:45 pistol swap for juggernaut 🍺 48:38 secondary empty😅 59:45 no time to swap🙃
If you're able to, I recommend giving some of these missions co-op. It changes the dynamic of a few of them almost entirely. As always, amazing content though.
Hey man you're one of my favorite youtubers and if you end up deciding to stop uploading COD I get it. However if you start uploading something else I'll gladly watch those too. You constantly put out high quality content that I will be here for. I'm excited to see what you put out in the future.
My brother in Christ, mad respect! Didn't knwo this video existed. Lovin it! I actually found your channel because of your MW2 Spec Ops video. Love the content. Keep it up
I apologies for my previous comment it was regrettably and undeniably out of pocket. you are a gentlemen and i was just overwhelmed with my little ears being blessed with your beautiful voice.
Yes its back I've been waiting for this for awhile hoping you would do it here you are. I've been watching you for around 2 years and really been enjoying these videos keep it up s0ur.
Hey SOur, love the content btw. The Vertigo mission has a bug where the helo can glitch out and the spin out sound will go on indefinitely until you die or finish. Just thought you should know, keep making the world a better place, man. And I love you
They actually do change up a lot of the missions in duo. Someone mentioned interrogator, but in black ice you ride on the back with fmg9's and in the 3rd level your coop partner is actually the sniper. This is even true for some of the base missions as well
Thanks again for putting my comment in the collage! These multi-hour long videos are great for relaxing in the evening! Can't wait to see how you pull some of these off, I have clear memories of my 11 year old self having gamer rage, no where near as bad as MW2 Snatch and Grab or High Explosive, but still irritating. Edit: Childhood me remembers these being much harder, the only reason you ever struggled was because you insisted on using low firerate weapons when you really shouldn't have.
woooaa... im just realizing, infinity ward was having its innerstudio fallout when this game was being made so sledgehammer games came in and helped with multiplayer and spec ops dlc. I have NEVER played this mission but you are correct, this looks just like the pipeline remaster map from advanced warfare. it has the dam and even the Chinese symbols because the map w a s set in China. sledgehammer game probably made this map first in spec ops for mw3 and then re-released it as an aw multiplayer map as a pre-order bonus. interesting.
Super entertaining video dude! I dunno how you do it, lmao. I honestly forgot this wasn't MW3 spec ops and my heart sank a little when I heard you bound your prone key but then I realized that this is a completely new video and you did in fact beat the self-inflicted no-prone challenge :P
I'm pretty sure that Scarecrow and Ozone were both dead in mw2 in the makarov safehouse one but maybe the events in this spec op were before maybe i dont know for sure
I've been hoping you'd post new content. Found the channel from the mw2 spec ops and have recently been watching your blops 3 campaign videos. So good to see you back
Love your content, mate. Always fun. Relatable, relaxing and funny, yet still professional. Editing is always slick too. Whatever the future holds for you; vids, streams, whatever, I'm sure it'll be awesome. Can't wait to see what you do next. 👍
The Glock in the snowmobile missions is basically just the smart pistol from titanfall which is especially funny when you realize that the same people made both games
I downloaded and watched the last edition of this when I flew to visit my grandparents back in September, then this was perfectly timed for me to watch on the flight when I visited this week!
I played negotiator so many times because there was a parkour glitch where you could get out of the map, and the out of bounds area was huge, so we just go explore that and let the hostages just chill lol
Honestly S0ur I think you making these videos are perfect you don’t have to be good at the game to have a great time going down memory lane and personally I’ve never had these DLCs so it’s nice you made this video
Our prayers have been answered! Lol thanks for playing the DLCs. Was fun to watch with your commentary. Now if you’re still taking suggestions I think Ghosts Extinction would be really fun to relive. I remember it being a very challenging mode and not many finished all the DLC maps, let alone played the game/bought DLC
I've been a fan of the COD MW series and even though I can't play em, I like watching gameplay of the newer games as well. (Don't tell this to anyone but you're my favourite youtuber for COD gameplay) Yes I like watching you play the COD games but honestly I'm here less for the games and more for your commentary on them. So even if you quit cod and wanna try out other games, I'll still watch em coz you're a fun guy to watch
Good work, this is probably better than the first MW3 Spec Ops one (the obvious edits were great, the references to the other videos were both natural and funny) and maybe even better than the first one. If the break led to this quality, it's completely worth it as far as I'm concerned. P.S. Human NPCs were not killstreaks until Ghosts (2 years later).
I spent a hour watching the normal mw3 spec Ops playthrough thinking it was thus one. I still enjoyed it, but now I realize I have even more content to watch, will there be cricket noises at the end? We shall see.

I remember the same thing
The man,the myth, the legend has returned.
This was an instant click the second I saw it, hopefully MW2(2022) has a better spec ops mode, so there’s a continuation of this series
I really hope so. I was so excited for mw2019 spec ops but it sucked.
I wish for this, but I've learned at this point to not be too hopeful
@@ENTZY. 100% with you…. The hype is kind of a joke at this point.
I'm not holding my breath.
There's a rumor that there won't be a spec ops mode
The flinch this game gave in PvE modes still haunts me
With Terminal survival you just sit behind the metal detectors and then buy armor and such during down time
The type of flinch nightmares are made of
Thank you for this S0ur. Ive only recently began watching your content but the dedication to do long videos like this prove that you're one of the very few content creators on this platform who really put effort and genuinity into what they create. We all love you bro. Hope you're stayin safe
Also the "It's time to finish what we started." Sounds so fucking badass wtf
Too kind, love ya
@@S0ur Ty gaming bag of sour patch kids :D
I liked how Kill Switch featured the two TF141 dudes from the Makarov estate mission from MW2.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed
This couldn’t have come at a more perfect time! I just finished watching the other 3 star vids!
5:43 Oh the MW2's UMP sneaked into an obscure MW3 DLC Spec Ops Mission, nice
That rocket at 57:06 was like something out of a cartoon xD
Ghosts: Extinction when? 😉
Hey, laundry! Wanna play some more Spec Ops Mode?
@@wolvesgabemaster5385"ok"
Hey laundry "what"

You made my night 💀
So the saga is over. You do you, there’s a lot of us that enjoy the hell out of your content regardless of if you choose to play the next game or not.
Remember, MCC is always on the table :)
i’ve been waiting for this all my life
same
I was literally watching the mw2 and mw3 spec Ops vids yesterday and wondering when you’d upload, I love u sour
The long awaited sequel we’ve all been waiting for!
Sour when I tell you I absolutely love ur vids I mean I’ve watched ur MW2 and MW3 spec ops vids so many times and now, this!? It’s like the perfect ending to the trilogy of getting all the 3 stars. Hope you’re doin great man thanks so much for what you do, a genuine person you are.
I feel like the protagonist, I watched the MW2 video like 2 weeks ago and the MW3 vid not long after, and now the MW3 DLC vid just came out?? Love it
I can’t believe it’s finally over. Somebody think of more stars for this man to earn please.
What are the odds I happen to click on your MW2 Spec Ops mission, go to your channel, and see that you uploaded this less than 30 minutes ago? Lets go duuuuuude
Definitely never expected you'd play these, very happy to be wrong.
2:50 switching is always faster than reloading. Nice👌, you must be a member of the 141
14:30 outstanding pistol swap👌
18:35 breach and clear with one bullet
26:55 shield 👍
30:45 pistol swap for juggernaut 🍺
48:38 secondary empty😅
59:45 no time to swap🙃
If you're able to, I recommend giving some of these missions co-op. It changes the dynamic of a few of them almost entirely. As always, amazing content though.
Don't watch cod anymore but I still always tune in for sour, so gonna watch this tonight
Hey man you're one of my favorite youtubers and if you end up deciding to stop uploading COD I get it. However if you start uploading something else I'll gladly watch those too. You constantly put out high quality content that I will be here for. I'm excited to see what you put out in the future.
Hell yeah bro I was hoping you were gonna make more of these!!
My brother in Christ, mad respect! Didn't knwo this video existed. Lovin it! I actually found your channel because of your MW2 Spec Ops video. Love the content. Keep it up
I’ve been looking forward to this
The fact that when you uploaded this I was watching your video about you playing all the MW2 Spec Ops Missions.
Glad to see this on my feed, and was in the middle of the intro too!
I apologies for my previous comment it was regrettably and undeniably out of pocket. you are a gentlemen and i was just overwhelmed with my little ears being blessed with your beautiful voice.
Yes its back I've been waiting for this for awhile hoping you would do it here you are. I've been watching you for around 2 years and really been enjoying these videos keep it up s0ur.

I see that we’ve returned to the “3 stars on all mw spec ops missions.” Glad to see there was more!
This is crazy. Just yesterday I was thinking “Shit man, I miss Sour, wish he’d make a video sometime soon”. Lo and behold…..glad to see ya buddy
for a 24 year old boomer such as myself this is peak nostalgia. Pinicle of youtube and cod, love these.
Just started watching your vids yesterday and then this dropped. perfect timing
Thank you. Really enjoy these vids. The nostalgia is crazy
No way!!! Awesome to see this!!!
All spec ops missions just seem to be campaign missions working backwards with a gimmic or objective. Ac-130, being a juggernaut etc. Simple but fun
Mw2 did it better
They actually do change up a lot of the missions in duo.
Someone mentioned interrogator, but in black ice you ride on the back with fmg9's and in the 3rd level your coop partner is actually the sniper.
This is even true for some of the base missions as well
Thanks again for putting my comment in the collage! These multi-hour long videos are great for relaxing in the evening!

Edit: Childhood me remembers these being much harder, the only reason you ever struggled was because you insisted on using low firerate weapons when you really shouldn't have.
I've been waiting for this after the regular spec ops playthrough.
The knife edit to the GIGN theme on Chaos mode went hard 🔥
woooaa... im just realizing, infinity ward was having its innerstudio fallout when this game was being made so sledgehammer games came in and helped with multiplayer and spec ops dlc. I have NEVER played this mission but you are correct, this looks just like the pipeline remaster map from advanced warfare. it has the dam and even the Chinese symbols because the map w a s set in China. sledgehammer game probably made this map first in spec ops for mw3 and then re-released it as an aw multiplayer map as a pre-order bonus. interesting.
Bruh, a day later after watching the two spec op videos now I get this??
Blessed asf 🙏🏼
Became one of my favourite RUclipsr over night cause of these videos man. Thank you
Super entertaining video dude! I dunno how you do it, lmao.
I honestly forgot this wasn't MW3 spec ops and my heart sank a little when I heard you bound your prone key but then I realized that this is a completely new video and you did in fact beat the self-inflicted no-prone challenge :P
Hey 4 month old random RUclips recommendation but I found your channel last night and it gives me a good vibe. You post good content king
Thank you!
You've got no idea how often imma watch this
I love these videos sour is hilarious I love the commentary
I'm pretty sure that Scarecrow and Ozone were both dead in mw2 in the makarov safehouse one but maybe the events in this spec op were before maybe i dont know for sure
I've been hoping you'd post new content. Found the channel from the mw2 spec ops and have recently been watching your blops 3 campaign videos. So good to see you back

Having finals in a couple weeks, and watching this vid in between breaks is a good way to relieve the stress.
Thanks S0ur.
Gl brother you got this 🙏
@@S0ur Thanks a bunch!
Actual chad for coming back to this.
Clicked as soon as I saw the notification. Thank you
The Glock in the snowmobile missions is basically just the smart pistol from titanfall which is especially funny when you realize that the same people made both games
"B is blocked by a hedgehog" Oh the flashbacks... the beaches of Normandy littered with loot boxes. The horror!
literally subbed with notifications for these vids but you’re a goat so i’ll watch more!
Nice to hear from you S0ur, we miss you when you don't upload
I downloaded and watched the last edition of this when I flew to visit my grandparents back in September, then this was perfectly timed for me to watch on the flight when I visited this week!
I heard your voice and instantly subscribed, idk what it is, but it’s captivating af
The mid roll ad is funny and this is amazing worth watching till 11
As someone that played a lot of it when I was younger, decommission was a fun man, good memories
wherever you go with your channel i'm sure it will be as entertaining if not more then what you are currently doing
Yesterday I was thinking “S0ur hasn’t posted in a while”
This was an instant click
now that you’ve done this, you should totally do a tier list of the spec ops missions from MW2-3
Kill Switch is by far the best DLC mission, negotiator is also decent.
Oh fuck yeah it’s finally happening! I really enjoyed the last 2 and I don’t think this will be an exception. :3
A surprise, but a welcome one.
Was not expecting this upload
Yesssirrr. Been waiting for this
You handsome bastard, happy to see your face again!
It brought me so much joy when you called it the rats ass cause I used to call it that when I first got the game when it came out
The madman listened to our request!
I played negotiator so many times because there was a parkour glitch where you could get out of the map, and the out of bounds area was huge, so we just go explore that and let the hostages just chill lol
Ahh I remember how difficult negotiator was. Had to recruit my friend to split screen it with me, so much easier in co-op
Love the button smashing in the beginning
My eyes have been blessed.
Your commentary is why I'm here
Really hope you cover MW II this year. Your videos are genuinely entertaining.
Honestly S0ur I think you making these videos are perfect you don’t have to be good at the game to have a great time going down memory lane and personally I’ve never had these DLCs so it’s nice you made this video
The flinch back then was crazy lol
Awful
Bro I never knew they added dlc spec ops missions. Thanks.
Our prayers have been answered! Lol thanks for playing the DLCs. Was fun to watch with your commentary. Now if you’re still taking suggestions I think Ghosts Extinction would be really fun to relive. I remember it being a very challenging mode and not many finished all the DLC maps, let alone played the game/bought DLC
I can’t believe I have been subbed ever since the 25 ways to die in mw3 vid that came out ten years ago…
Was having a bad day and as soon as I read the title my day was made 😭
I've been a fan of the COD MW series and even though I can't play em, I like watching gameplay of the newer games as well. (Don't tell this to anyone but you're my favourite youtuber for COD gameplay)
Yes I like watching you play the COD games but honestly I'm here less for the games and more for your commentary on them. So even if you quit cod and wanna try out other games, I'll still watch em coz you're a fun guy to watch
The return of the king
The cat headbanging to the modern warfare mission success music 🤣🤣
HUGE HYPE.
i did not know these existed
pleasant surprise in the sub box
Enjoyed the MW2 soundtrack in the background
That was an amazing first 5 seconds
"Oh, Im cooking a flash" fucking killed me bro😂
Good work, this is probably better than the first MW3 Spec Ops one (the obvious edits were great, the references to the other videos were both natural and funny) and maybe even better than the first one. If the break led to this quality, it's completely worth it as far as I'm concerned.
