As these zoomer shinanigans are happening, somewhere in that city, are two Russian men ready to battle in the Reichstag and hoist the red banner on top of it.
I have to say, this definitely doesn’t hold a candle to WAW’s Battle Of Berlin. It felt like the fall of an Empire, everything was coming to an end and the German’s felt desperate, it felt like they were fighting tooth and nail for every last scrap of Berlin, the screaming, the shouting, the German voice actors really sounded panicked, broadcasted voices impel the Germans to fight on, the hellish sound of Katyusha rockets. The colours were saturated and bleak, and the city was in utter ruins and a smoky haze had descended on the city, from the dust and destruction, there were hanged Germans who were hanged by their own for being cowards. The music was brilliant too, as with the entirety of COD WAW and the Eastern Front missions. It remains for me one of the greatest levels in gaming and COD. In Vanguard, instead of feeling like a single soldier in a massive army, a feeling which was aided by the massive scale chaos, sure you were still badass but your badassery felt almost eclipsed by what was going on around you. In this, you’re a hodgepodge of action badasses spouting quips and one-liners. There’s no real comment on the atrocities and war crimes that plagued Berlin in this, you don’t see the hanged Germans or at least can’t clearly, you don’t see Soviets executing prisoners, it only shows civilians getting caught up, what if the Russian lady saw some of her comrades executing prisoners and civilians, perhaps worse. What if there was a part where you enter a hallway, and there are Russian soldiers running down one end, and you have to go the other, and if you look to the right of you along the hallway looking into a small room, you find a naked woman, dead in the corner, it’s not shown what happened to her but there’s sure as hell an implication. Showing the ghastly horrors of war in a WW2 game, pffffff! Also, it’s far too bright, it’s downright near clear skied and the moon is clearly seen, unobstructed by any smoke or haze. There are also other things they could’ve done that WAW, what if they showed the Volkssturm? WAW didn’t do that and they were everywhere in the Battle of Berlin, civilians in or without uniforms wielding cheap shit and Panzerfausts. That’d be so cool, showing civilians being thrown into the meat grinder, alongside the new blood soldiers and grizzled veterans.
Kind of would be cool if in WaW or any game that's the Battle of Berlin, the Germans had a mixed of weapons like Mosins, Springfields, MAS-36, etc along side thier own weapons to show the desperate nature the Germans are in, going to the extent of using captured arms, another idea is nods to WWI where old weapons like the Gewehr 98, and MG 08s being issued to Soldiers and Volksturrm alike.
But at there we were among dead Russian soldiers but at here atleast we have Russian Troops fighting along Task Force One. Apparently the airport is real it's Tempelholf Berlin Airport in centre of Germany
@@ChandranPrema123 Yup. Tempelhof Airport was captured and liberated by the *8th Guards Army* (1st Belorussian Front - 1BF) on April 26th 1945. After the outer S-Bahn line defensive ring around Berlin had been breached the day before on April 25th, which commenced the inner battle of Berlin. Concerning earlier that same day , troops of the 2nd Guards Tank Army had crossed the River Spree west of the Berlin suburb of Charlotteburg and had linked up with General Rybalko's troops of the 3rd Guards Tank Army (1st Ukrainian Front -1KF) near the Berlin suburbs of Wilmersdorf and Grunewald. Which basically had cut off the enemy forces in Berlin for good from those in the West, like Wenck's 12th Army. Knowing the 4th Guards Tank Army (1UF) had also linked up with the 47th Army (1BF) to the West of Potsdam and began liberating the city. Meaning, the enemy forces in Berlin would had to go through two major defensive lines before they could reach Wenck's army. Also, ironically, the 8th Guards Army was commanded by *General Chuikov* ... the famed general who defended and liberated Stalingrad. His unit after the battle of Stalingrad was over in early 1943, the 62nd Army, got to be promoted to the 8th Guards Army. So, you had a general and a unit who fought all the way from the Volga River straight to the heart of Berlin in the end. Knowing the 8th Guards Army eventually captured and liberated the entire South and South-East of Berlin. All the way from Neukölln to Tiergarten where they linked up with units of the 3rd Shock Army, commanded by General Kuznetsov, who had just captured and liberated the Reichstag area, the suburb of Moabit (including Moabit prison and all the way South to the Str. des 17. street. Which directly intersected the Tiergarten park at the middle. Right from the Brandenburger Tor to the Ernst-Reuter-Platz
Now I get it. Soviet army didnt took Berlin. 4 people took it alone with advanced weapons. They crashed German resistance in 23 minutes and Soviet army was just siting at Oder river with 3.000.000 men, 5000 tanks and waiting for this guys to clean Berlin. Then Stalin sent 8 soilders and man with camera to put flag on Reischtag.

Well, more of less it is what you said the Nazis didn't turn into the Fourth Reich but to deep state and undercover, into the shadows Reich, keeping the Nazi influence alive by many years and generation, thanks to the protagonist we got all the Intel about their operations.
Four people, each represent their country team up to together to defeat the evil nazi. One is born leader, One had incredible reflexes, One is deadeye(sharpshooter) and One is explosive Maniac. Why do i felt this more like a superhero mashup ww2 setup
It’s the typical lame one man army storyline. Nothing interesting about this. WAW and Cod2 made you feel like and actual soldier fighting in the frontlines. This is the same Hollywood garbage as Cod WW2
@@Mr_Gato02 even MW 1 and 2 actually makes you a foot soldier by playing as marines, in 3 they may go full SF but that's understandable since they want to continue the plot from MW2 US mainland offensive and show how they too also going to hammer the Russian back to their land, heck it's not entirely removed since there is a whole ass mission with rhino 1 Abrams with the deltas as preemptive force before the actual assault from army and marines.
Man , the COD developers are trying a way hard to make this game feel like marvel . Its a shame that triple A companies dont get why WAW was so memorable because it had a simpler plot and told a story of soldiers fighting tooth and nail to survive . (Its my personal opinion) the COD MW 2019 got the attention of the general community because of its brutality and gritty nature but then it became this season wise Verdansk shlock and the BO COLD WAR continued it . The problem is they started doing this multiplayer narrative which for me it doesn't work .
Hell, they even tried to connect the Modern Warfare and Black Ops universe together to make some cinematic universe. They shouldn't have put a storyline in Warzone.
@@ThemomSlapper Yes I know most people play cod for multiplayer but the issue is that multiplayer ruined the mystic of cod characters with these season narratives . It would be cool if they used the unique operators for new spec ops missions and not as warzone characters
When you realize how normal armies work and function it's really hard for me to follow a story with a soldier from russia, england, america and french revolution all fighting together. It's just so cinematic it makes me puke. History is more amazing than fiction, why we feel the need to manufacture history to todays standards enrages me.
The CIA was formed in 1947. Funny thing about covert operations, though, during the war the Federal government did ally itself with the Italian mafia to root out spies, sabatours, prevent work strikes, and gather intel.
The entire story of this game sounds a lot like Where Eagles Dare, The Dirty Dozen and Inglorious Basterds. Not to mention games such as Medal of Honor and Sniper Elite
Ah, I miss the old days where you just play as a normal soldier participating as a member or a great operation, not like this super-hero-political-correct drama.
with same stereotype of Female Russian Sniper but at minute 11:10 she hold tokarev like mosin lol. oh and don't forget about dark english man as a hero as well just to WOKE. I mean it's not wrong if they need to be exposed in a war but not like this fictional drama, CoD need to understand BF1 campaign where they covering a rare story about african french soldier in a war.
@@ARTimo3x but the problem is those are not fun at all.In Vanguard the story doesn't make sense but the Gameplay,Level design,Gunplay and Character are fun and memorable.

You are a super-soilder in basically every CoD game, only Vanguard is more honest about it. Calling it "woke" because there is a black solider is simplifying any actual issues the game may have down to "aHh PC gOnE WilD"
@@bigounce5053 Knowing Activision. I doubt they'll do that because they will more than likely continue this PC madness, and because they don't want to piss off China.
@@sovietfartbanger1480 i looked at Wikipedia and it said mason served as a marine force recon in South Korea during the Korean War and Hudson was a paratrooper that served Korea. I know the intel doesn’t say it but it would be dope if they change it a bit.
Why they couldn't just return to regular soldiers is beyond me. They chose a fictional Special forces team instead of individual stories of squads like the original trilogy. Hell, the original games had the tagline "Never Fight Alone". The scale of the Battles is what made Call of Duty great. Not the explosive micheal bay spectacle.
Of all the things that disappoints me about this game…the fact they traded legendary quotes from important historical figures for their own fictional character’s one liners disgusts me.
Interesting concept, but still kinda underwhelming. I do like the concept of an Allied Nexus Squad in WW2, but that was barely involved at all. Just the backstories, then bam! They’re a team of people that suddenly started working together. They all had their moments, but i think they all needed more development. The world traveling via flashbacks and the ending with the teases for what happens in the future was cool, tho. I just wish this simply wasn’t just a Warzone hype up. Let’s pour one out to: Novak: the silent guy who made it to the elite team who got beat to death by a chair on the first day And Richard: The guy who didn’t get a backstory(though, tbf, he was like Arthur’s right hand)
@@Fulcrox “oh boo hoo. Alternative history is for kids and I must hate it all the time because it doesn’t match with history.” You are not fun at parties. You are a pseudo intellectual who can’t have fun at all. Also, be mature. Blaming marvel for everything you don’t like doesn’t make you a better person.
I unironically think the issue with most COD games at the point is the graphics. In particular the artstyle. Everything is way to bright for a WW2 game. WaW got it right with just constant desaturated environments that really just emphasized on how shitty war was.
It's weird how a know-no-nobody is apparently going to be the figure head of every nazi zombies and black ops lore of whatever this 4th reich shenanigans, also freisinger is still a corporal and somehow he got lieutenant collar badge, and he dies the lamest way possible
dunno, this feels underwhelming even to BFV War Stories which were also weak (minus Tirailleur and The Last Tiger for me) let alone WWII campaign. WWII campaign isn't inspirational but passable and even then this feels weaker. cutscene feels cringey too. maybe game environment could give that WWII impression so let this be my initial judgement
Vanguard is more of an Avengers ripoff or something. BFV tried to have some plausible incidents (minus Nordlys, that was too out of proportion - civilian single handedly killing a occupation force?), especially Tirailleur and Last Tiger.
In this game you can see thousands of bullets flying everywhere but the sound is too "quiet" for such a big and important battlefield, it doesn't convey emotions
Mostly everyone else is praising this but allow to become THAT one guy. Firstly, Medal Of Honor Frontline had more NPCs on screen and that game came out on PS2 in 2002. Second, the weapons in """Berlin""" are oddly like that of CoD WW2 with the Japenese Type 100 being a German weapon in Europe which makes no sense (don't even get me started on the tanks). Thirdly, great message to send in the end. Lowering yourself to the same lows of the SS by burning a man alive, by submitting to blatant manipulation. You have given into the same level of evil as those you're fighting against. Also, what if Freisinger would have had information on a group of other high ranking SS who were going to conduct further attacks against the Allies after the war was over that wasn't written down in those terribly convenient German documents. Guess that's gonna come as a rude shock when the bodies starting stacking up. The worst part is that this could have been a semi competent plot line with some atleast decent attempts at trying to be remotely historical and logical but nope. Seems like most AAA WW2 games want some of the WW2 visuals but not actual WW2. Welp, consider me warned.
"I diddn't shoot him because he was crazy. I shot him because he was making sense." -Detective Miller And burning that dude was not the same level of evil as what he was up to and what the Nazis in general were for. If the dude wasn't guilty of any war crimes, had been trying to end the hostilities against civilians, and was just trying to get out of Berlin peacefully, and help by bringing information to the Allies; and then the commandos were like "nah we gonna burn you anyway for wearing that uniform" then they'd be giving into evil. But since we can presume he was responsible for some of the fighting continuing, if not more, and trying to continue the Nazi regime beyond the imminent end of the war, then he's an enemy, and in WWII especially that meant he might end up a casualty of the conflict. Other than that yeah this game looks like trash and historical make-believe masquerading as some kind of authentic experience which is frustrating if not infuriating. I'm all for making up little stories set in the chaos of war to make certain events relatable. But to make it seem like the entire fate of the war comes down to all this made-up stuff means the game is no better than Wolfenstein series, yet without any of the obvious tells that its all made up. At least Wolfenstein was clearly historical fantasy.
It would’ve been bad if they let him intel they didn’t have to stoop so low that they capture him just for some intel the sad thing is that if they did capture him he would’ve led a good life probably better than vanguard’s
How wonderfull is to realise WaW still is in our hearts and that these politically correct, semi science fiction, high definition remakes are not as good.

Inaccuracies I saw: 0:00 - I'll assume that Freisinger's pocket badge, apart from the Wound Badge, was the NSDAP Golden Party Badge which was given to Nazi Party Members who were already registered as of 9 November 1933 and had unbroken Party membership. Of course, this badge should portray the Sw4stika instead of the Iron Cross. 0:01 - The CoD Vanguard wikia states that Freisinger's rank is an SS-Oberst-Gruppenführer or a Colonel-General. However, he is portrayed in the game as a lowly SS-Untersturmführer or Second Lieutenant 0:06 - Given that Freisinger is a Gestapo officer, there should be an epaulette on his right shoulder of his black Allgemeine-SS uniform. 0:19 - The officer in the center of the shot also lacks the same right shoulder epaulette in his uniform. 0:46 - Another SS officer in his black Allgemeine officer uniform lacks the right shoulder epaulette. 1:07 - There seems to be no arabesque on the Wehrmacht General's collar. Additionally, given that he belongs to the Wehrmacht, the Wehrmachtsadler or the eagle emblem should only be on the breast since the arm eagle was only exclusive to the SS. 1:46 - Richter is a SS-Hauptmann or Captain as indicated in his collar, however shoulder tabs indicate his rank as a Standartenführer or Colonel. Additionally, he's also attached to the Sicherheitsdienst or SD so his uniform piping should be colored poison green, not white which is for the infantry. 4:03 - More of an inconsistency but in the cutscene, Arthur carries the MP40 whereas the transition towards the gameplay phase has you carrying the Bren. 4:38 - In the wikia, Lucas ranks as a Second Lieutenant but is shown here as a Corporal. 7:48 - Wade still has the harness from his pilot parachute. 8:23 - It is unclear what exact date but it can be safe to assume that fighting still took place by 1 May 1945 because the day after was when the commander of the Berlin Defence Force, General Helmuth Weidling ordered a cease-fire. 8:55 - The Gewehr 43, despite having a box magazine, was intended to be loaded with 5-round stripper clips, which were a cheaper alternative to the box magazines. 10:25 - The MG42 turret is faced in the opposite direction. 10:43 - Tempelhof Airport fell under Soviet control by April 28-29 so the prospect of Nazi officers escaping there by May 1945 is unthinkable. Plus, Nazi banners would ought to be replaced by the Red Army banners since the Soviets already have control of the airport at this point. 11:20 - Arthur now carries a Sten, which was not his preliminary weapon in the cutscene nor at the start of the mission. 11:37 - The two-handed pistol grip technique (aka modern technique) was developed beginning in the 1950s. Thus, the practice of holding a pistol with two hands is hardly prominent back in WW2. 11:41 - Not an issue but the average Soviet infantryman carried PPSH-41s fitted with the iconic 71-round drum magazine. 13:22 - Despite efforts to make a WW2-era Juggernaut, use of body armor was evident only in British and Soviet units. Additionally, the Flammenwerfer 43 was notably used by sturmpionieres or assault pioneers who assisted infantry in offensive operations. 14:29 - The STG 44 never had drum magazines. It only used 30-round box magazines. 14:47 - Inserting a Panzerschreck rocket like that would cause the warhead itself to fall through the tube. It was generally recommended that using a Panzerschreck was a two-man job, requiring a gunner and a loader. 15:54 - That seems awfully small for a Panzerschreck. 16:06 - Wade carries a Japanese Type 100 SMG which is idiotic considering that 8x22 Nambu ammunition is a rarity (or rather non existent) in Germany at this point. 19:04 - And just magically Arthur's Sten transforms into a Bren. 20:52 - There were no 10.0x Telescopic sights on Kar98Ks; only 4x, 6x, and 8x. 21:22 - The Luger is named Klauser.
@@Deathmare235 You can try comparing his collar rank with Richter's in the cutscenes. Pretty weird considering a lieutenant is able to bark orders to a captain.
...I gotta admit. I really like the relationship and dialogue with the 4 leads here. Like even though we don't get a lot of gameplay with all of them together when they are it does feel like we got a group of comrades who have been through a lot together and trust each other well
Yeah the the part that he was about to give evidence about project Phoenix and yet they kill him then how are they going to know if they can't have evidence about it think about it idiot
This Campaign for this game was not bad at all for a fictional story, it was kinda like watching a Hollywood Action movie based on WW2, the concept of a team of soldiers from the UK, Australia, Soviet Union, and America, going covert to foil a secret sinister and evil Nazi plan, lots of blood n guts and explosions n shooting, lots of dialogue, everyone has a heroic yet always very intense backstory, then everyone at the end kills the bad guy and saves the day. If this was a Netflix movie or tv show I would watch it n give it 5 stars, but the thing is it is supposed to be a WW2 game based on actual WW2 fighting, like old CoD. But the ending has got me wondering something, since there are Black Ops and Cold war references does this mean that these guys after they find that shit load of Nazi gold n intel, start the events of Nazi Zombies? Like the first people in Nacht der Untoten was US Marine and Soviet Red Army soldier, so could the actual event be this plane going down with wade and Polina or a comrade of hers? And if so, does this mean that the events of CoD WW2 zombies be where the zombie outbreak happened to cause Nacht der Toten? They said at the end in the plane that there are more missions they will partake in the future then he said they were the Vanguard, is this the team that kills the zombies hence the player's characters in zombies? Or is the Vanguard present when Mason, Woods, and Hudson tries to stop the soviets in Black Ops? The ending makes me wonder this. Would be very cool if everything was Linked together in the storylines.
Rommel never liked the SS so why would an SS madman mention him like a tragic loss. Probably because they lost the use of him. Edit: also I see they are not censoring correct ww2 imagery…we haven’t seen that since World at War.
Rommel was a war hero that served in both world wars so even if he didn't like the SS ALOT of people in Germany at that time admired him. Had operation valkyrie succeeded he probably would have been made Reich president.
I don't know if I am the only one but, why nowadays gunshots and explosion sounds on videogames sound less powerful than before? They have like a weird filter on it that make them sound each of them almost the same.
They are German paratroopers, but some are wearing Italian paratrooper vests (vests Made to put Beretta SMG mags on it), of course it doesnt make sense, it's just a Made up uniform so they can look "elite"
This is not a connection of classic games from old call of duty ww2 (1, 2, 3) series and call of duty ww2 2017 even world at war... This is connection of two games were warzone was made... Mw 2019 is not connected to mw trilogy, Black Ops Cold War is not connected to Black Ops series, Vanguard is fictional history that connects to two games and warzone which why warzone pacific trailer reveal secrets in Verdansk since 1984 (BOCW Season 6)...

This generation of games that try and re-write history will never hold a candle to the ones we grew up with from COD1 & United Offensive and Call of duty 2 with capt price and macgregor's funny moments aswell as the old modern warfare versions of callf of duty too, no cosmetics, pure skill in the weapons we used and none of this pay to win or soldier dress up stuff, and the fact that you got stuck with the classes you could choose from and what your soldier wore for that map!. As much as i do like games like Battlefield 5 and a few others where you can outfit your class / soldier to how you want to play, i do think the old classics were just as good in their own right and helped us players fall in love with such games. But for me the sad truth is that most indie / 3rd party games or mods that add immersion and realism tend to end up being far more better than most recent games that have come out and don't always persue things just for profit.

The music was brilliant too, as with the entirety of COD WAW and the Eastern Front missions. It remains for me one of the greatest levels in gaming and COD.
In Vanguard, instead of feeling like a single soldier in a massive army, a feeling which was aided by the massive scale chaos, sure you were still badass but your badassery felt almost eclipsed by what was going on around you. In this, you’re a hodgepodge of action badasses spouting quips and one-liners. There’s no real comment on the atrocities and war crimes that plagued Berlin in this, you don’t see the hanged Germans or at least can’t clearly, you don’t see Soviets executing prisoners, it only shows civilians getting caught up, what if the Russian lady saw some of her comrades executing prisoners and civilians, perhaps worse. What if there was a part where you enter a hallway, and there are Russian soldiers running down one end, and you have to go the other, and if you look to the right of you along the hallway looking into a small room, you find a naked woman, dead in the corner, it’s not shown what happened to her but there’s sure as hell an implication. Showing the ghastly horrors of war in a WW2 game, pffffff!
Also, it’s far too bright, it’s downright near clear skied and the moon is clearly seen, unobstructed by any smoke or haze. There are also other things they could’ve done that WAW, what if they showed the Volkssturm? WAW didn’t do that and they were everywhere in the Battle of Berlin, civilians in or without uniforms wielding cheap shit and Panzerfausts. That’d be so cool, showing civilians being thrown into the meat grinder, alongside the new blood soldiers and grizzled veterans.
How about a sympathetic German main protagonist?
Kind of would be cool if in WaW or any game that's the Battle of Berlin, the Germans had a mixed of weapons like Mosins, Springfields, MAS-36, etc along side thier own weapons to show the desperate nature the Germans are in, going to the extent of using captured arms, another idea is nods to WWI where old weapons like the Gewehr 98, and MG 08s being issued to Soldiers and Volksturrm alike.

Even though that's one of my favorites growing up was I the only one that got chills and was legit kinda scared of how waw portrayed the atmosphere.
@@ChandranPrema123 Yup. Tempelhof Airport was captured and liberated by the *8th Guards Army* (1st Belorussian Front - 1BF) on April 26th 1945. After the outer S-Bahn line defensive ring around Berlin had been breached the day before on April 25th, which commenced the inner battle of Berlin.
Concerning earlier that same day , troops of the 2nd Guards Tank Army had crossed the River Spree west of the Berlin suburb of Charlotteburg and had linked up with General Rybalko's troops of the 3rd Guards Tank Army (1st Ukrainian Front -1KF) near the Berlin suburbs of Wilmersdorf and Grunewald. Which basically had cut off the enemy forces in Berlin for good from those in the West, like Wenck's 12th Army. Knowing the 4th Guards Tank Army (1UF) had also linked up with the 47th Army (1BF) to the West of Potsdam and began liberating the city. Meaning, the enemy forces in Berlin would had to go through two major defensive lines before they could reach Wenck's army.
Also, ironically, the 8th Guards Army was commanded by *General Chuikov* ... the famed general who defended and liberated Stalingrad. His unit after the battle of Stalingrad was over in early 1943, the 62nd Army, got to be promoted to the 8th Guards Army. So, you had a general and a unit who fought all the way from the Volga River straight to the heart of Berlin in the end. Knowing the 8th Guards Army eventually captured and liberated the entire South and South-East of Berlin. All the way from Neukölln to Tiergarten where they linked up with units of the 3rd Shock Army, commanded by General Kuznetsov, who had just captured and liberated the Reichstag area, the suburb of Moabit (including Moabit prison and all the way South to the Str. des 17. street. Which directly intersected the Tiergarten park at the middle. Right from the Brandenburger Tor to the Ernst-Reuter-Platz

@@Mr_Gato02 even MW 1 and 2 actually makes you a foot soldier by playing as marines, in 3 they may go full SF but that's understandable since they want to continue the plot from MW2 US mainland offensive and show how they too also going to hammer the Russian back to their land, heck it's not entirely removed since there is a whole ass mission with rhino 1 Abrams with the deltas as preemptive force before the actual assault from army and marines.
Man , the COD developers are trying a way hard to make this game feel like marvel . Its a shame that triple A companies dont get why WAW was so memorable because it had a simpler plot and told a story of soldiers fighting tooth and nail to survive . (Its my personal opinion) the COD MW 2019 got the attention of the general community because of its brutality and gritty nature but then it became this season wise Verdansk shlock and the BO COLD WAR continued it . The problem is they started doing this multiplayer narrative which for me it doesn't work .
Hell, they even tried to connect the Modern Warfare and Black Ops universe together to make some cinematic universe. They shouldn't have put a storyline in Warzone.
Multiplayer is where the most people play why are you surprised
@@ThemomSlapper Yes I know most people play cod for multiplayer but the issue is that multiplayer ruined the mystic of cod characters with these season narratives . It would be cool if they used the unique operators for new spec ops missions and not as warzone characters

They’re a team of people that suddenly started working together. They all had their moments, but i think they all needed more development. The world traveling via flashbacks and the ending with the teases for what happens in the future was cool, tho. I just wish this simply wasn’t just a Warzone hype up.

I unironically think the issue with most COD games at the point is the graphics. In particular the artstyle. Everything is way to bright for a WW2 game. WaW got it right with just constant desaturated environments that really just emphasized on how shitty war was.
Not only that, the environment would’ve been covered in rubble, debris, blood and ash, along with the air polluted with constant smoke and ash.

dunno, this feels underwhelming even to BFV War Stories which were also weak (minus Tirailleur and The Last Tiger for me) let alone WWII campaign. WWII campaign isn't inspirational but passable and even then this feels weaker. cutscene feels cringey too. maybe game environment could give that WWII impression so let this be my initial judgement
I might have enjoyed watching their backstories more
The last tiger was the best war story of bfv and imo one the best WW2 mission I've played in any game recently
Vanguard is more of an Avengers ripoff or something.
BFV tried to have some plausible incidents (minus Nordlys, that was too out of proportion - civilian single handedly killing a occupation force?), especially Tirailleur and Last Tiger.
Kind of funny how they never had to dodge any Russian aircraft trying to shoot them down as they try to fly out of Berlin.

Loose ends but its the good guys.
"You're not worth it, that's one less loose ends" *burns the villain*
Evil loose ends be like "kills the bad guy"
Battle of the Reichstag in WAW is more immersive than this entire game
In this game you can see thousands of bullets flying everywhere but the sound is too "quiet" for such a big and important battlefield, it doesn't convey emotions
Mostly everyone else is praising this but allow to become THAT one guy. Firstly, Medal Of Honor Frontline had more NPCs on screen and that game came out on PS2 in 2002. Second, the weapons in """Berlin""" are oddly like that of CoD WW2 with the Japenese Type 100 being a German weapon in Europe which makes no sense (don't even get me started on the tanks). Thirdly, great message to send in the end. Lowering yourself to the same lows of the SS by burning a man alive, by submitting to blatant manipulation. You have given into the same level of evil as those you're fighting against. Also, what if Freisinger would have had information on a group of other high ranking SS who were going to conduct further attacks against the Allies after the war was over that wasn't written down in those terribly convenient German documents. Guess that's gonna come as a rude shock when the bodies starting stacking up. The worst part is that this could have been a semi competent plot line with some atleast decent attempts at trying to be remotely historical and logical but nope. Seems like most AAA WW2 games want some of the WW2 visuals but not actual WW2. Welp, consider me warned.
This game feels more and more of a piece of historial revisionism to satisfy some political agenda than a historical take of WW2.
I don't think a lot of people are actually praising this game XD.
It's the same ole wall with slightly different paint.
"I diddn't shoot him because he was crazy. I shot him because he was making sense." -Detective Miller
And burning that dude was not the same level of evil as what he was up to and what the Nazis in general were for. If the dude wasn't guilty of any war crimes, had been trying to end the hostilities against civilians, and was just trying to get out of Berlin peacefully, and help by bringing information to the Allies; and then the commandos were like "nah we gonna burn you anyway for wearing that uniform" then they'd be giving into evil. But since we can presume he was responsible for some of the fighting continuing, if not more, and trying to continue the Nazi regime beyond the imminent end of the war, then he's an enemy, and in WWII especially that meant he might end up a casualty of the conflict.
Other than that yeah this game looks like trash and historical make-believe masquerading as some kind of authentic experience which is frustrating if not infuriating.
I'm all for making up little stories set in the chaos of war to make certain events relatable. But to make it seem like the entire fate of the war comes down to all this made-up stuff means the game is no better than Wolfenstein series, yet without any of the obvious tells that its all made up. At least Wolfenstein was clearly historical fantasy.
This is somehow closer to alternate historical fiction than actual history
It would’ve been bad if they let him intel they didn’t have to stoop so low that they capture him just for some intel the sad thing is that if they did capture him he would’ve led a good life probably better than vanguard’s

I’m going to take an educated guess and say I’m not the only one who could think about World at War’s ending while watching this.
Inaccuracies I saw:
0:00 - I'll assume that Freisinger's pocket badge, apart from the Wound Badge, was the NSDAP Golden Party Badge which was given to Nazi Party Members who were already registered as of 9 November 1933 and had unbroken Party membership. Of course, this badge should portray the Sw4stika instead of the Iron Cross.
0:01 - The CoD Vanguard wikia states that Freisinger's rank is an SS-Oberst-Gruppenführer or a Colonel-General. However, he is portrayed in the game as a lowly SS-Untersturmführer or Second Lieutenant
0:06 - Given that Freisinger is a Gestapo officer, there should be an epaulette on his right shoulder of his black Allgemeine-SS uniform.
0:19 - The officer in the center of the shot also lacks the same right shoulder epaulette in his uniform.
0:46 - Another SS officer in his black Allgemeine officer uniform lacks the right shoulder epaulette.
1:07 - There seems to be no arabesque on the Wehrmacht General's collar. Additionally, given that he belongs to the Wehrmacht, the Wehrmachtsadler or the eagle emblem should only be on the breast since the arm eagle was only exclusive to the SS.
1:46 - Richter is a SS-Hauptmann or Captain as indicated in his collar, however shoulder tabs indicate his rank as a Standartenführer or Colonel. Additionally, he's also attached to the Sicherheitsdienst or SD so his uniform piping should be colored poison green, not white which is for the infantry.
4:03 - More of an inconsistency but in the cutscene, Arthur carries the MP40 whereas the transition towards the gameplay phase has you carrying the Bren.
4:38 - In the wikia, Lucas ranks as a Second Lieutenant but is shown here as a Corporal.
7:48 - Wade still has the harness from his pilot parachute.
8:23 - It is unclear what exact date but it can be safe to assume that fighting still took place by 1 May 1945 because the day after was when the commander of the Berlin Defence Force, General Helmuth Weidling ordered a cease-fire.
8:55 - The Gewehr 43, despite having a box magazine, was intended to be loaded with 5-round stripper clips, which were a cheaper alternative to the box magazines.
10:25 - The MG42 turret is faced in the opposite direction.
10:43 - Tempelhof Airport fell under Soviet control by April 28-29 so the prospect of Nazi officers escaping there by May 1945 is unthinkable. Plus, Nazi banners would ought to be replaced by the Red Army banners since the Soviets already have control of the airport at this point.
11:20 - Arthur now carries a Sten, which was not his preliminary weapon in the cutscene nor at the start of the mission.
11:37 - The two-handed pistol grip technique (aka modern technique) was developed beginning in the 1950s. Thus, the practice of holding a pistol with two hands is hardly prominent back in WW2.
11:41 - Not an issue but the average Soviet infantryman carried PPSH-41s fitted with the iconic 71-round drum magazine.
13:22 - Despite efforts to make a WW2-era Juggernaut, use of body armor was evident only in British and Soviet units. Additionally, the Flammenwerfer 43 was notably used by sturmpionieres or assault pioneers who assisted infantry in offensive operations.
14:29 - The STG 44 never had drum magazines. It only used 30-round box magazines.
14:47 - Inserting a Panzerschreck rocket like that would cause the warhead itself to fall through the tube. It was generally recommended that using a Panzerschreck was a two-man job, requiring a gunner and a loader.
15:54 - That seems awfully small for a Panzerschreck.
16:06 - Wade carries a Japanese Type 100 SMG which is idiotic considering that 8x22 Nambu ammunition is a rarity (or rather non existent) in Germany at this point.
19:04 - And just magically Arthur's Sten transforms into a Bren.
20:52 - There were no 10.0x Telescopic sights on Kar98Ks; only 4x, 6x, and 8x.
21:22 - The Luger is named Klauser.
Question how is Freisinger portrayed as a second lieutenant and not a colonel general he was the one leading the nazis
@@Deathmare235 You can try comparing his collar rank with Richter's in the cutscenes. Pretty weird considering a lieutenant is able to bark orders to a captain.

Even if Freisinger's plane did take off, the Red Air Force would just shoot it down.
Some planes escaped the Soviet aerial defense during the battle of Berlin, anyway, the story on this Game is Uber stupid
This Campaign for this game was not bad at all for a fictional story, it was kinda like watching a Hollywood Action movie based on WW2, the concept of a team of soldiers from the UK, Australia, Soviet Union, and America, going covert to foil a secret sinister and evil Nazi plan, lots of blood n guts and explosions n shooting, lots of dialogue, everyone has a heroic yet always very intense backstory, then everyone at the end kills the bad guy and saves the day. If this was a Netflix movie or tv show I would watch it n give it 5 stars, but the thing is it is supposed to be a WW2 game based on actual WW2 fighting, like old CoD. But the ending has got me wondering something, since there are Black Ops and Cold war references does this mean that these guys after they find that shit load of Nazi gold n intel, start the events of Nazi Zombies? Like the first people in Nacht der Untoten was US Marine and Soviet Red Army soldier, so could the actual event be this plane going down with wade and Polina or a comrade of hers? And if so, does this mean that the events of CoD WW2 zombies be where the zombie outbreak happened to cause Nacht der Toten? They said at the end in the plane that there are more missions they will partake in the future then he said they were the Vanguard, is this the team that kills the zombies hence the player's characters in zombies? Or is the Vanguard present when Mason, Woods, and Hudson tries to stop the soviets in Black Ops? The ending makes me wonder this. Would be very cool if everything was Linked together in the storylines.
Rommel never liked the SS so why would an SS madman mention him like a tragic loss. Probably because they lost the use of him.
Edit: also I see they are not censoring correct ww2 imagery…we haven’t seen that since World at War.
Rommel was a war hero that served in both world wars so even if he didn't like the SS ALOT of people in Germany at that time admired him. Had operation valkyrie succeeded he probably would have been made Reich president.
I thought bf1 war stories were ridiculous with one man army but this is just pure comical
I loved the part when she talked about the project aether and the zombies
1:54 i wish they were normal fucking soldiers and i hate how skilled they have to make them the super balls nut glove is to be cut here, bruh
I don't know if I am the only one but, why nowadays gunshots and explosion sounds on videogames sound less powerful than before? They have like a weird filter on it that make them sound each of them almost the same.
2:56
Wade: C’mon, kids, shit’s on fire out here!
21:40 they really gonna pull the emperor’s theme from Star Wars on this guy? 😂
The Vanguard campaign kind of has an Inglorious Bastards feel unlike the other COD games set on WW2
No matter how good the graphics are the story wont be as good as the older cod games
15:53 Can someone explain to me what gear those soldiers are wearing, they look more like modern gear to me.
Cause it doesn't exist in ww2
I don't know if that is their Uniform but those look like bulletproof vests which exist during WW2.
They are German paratroopers, but some are wearing Italian paratrooper vests (vests Made to put Beretta SMG mags on it), of course it doesnt make sense, it's just a Made up uniform so they can look "elite"
This is not a connection of classic games from old call of duty ww2 (1, 2, 3) series and call of duty ww2 2017 even world at war... This is connection of two games were warzone was made... Mw 2019 is not connected to mw trilogy, Black Ops Cold War is not connected to Black Ops series, Vanguard is fictional history that connects to two games and warzone which why warzone pacific trailer reveal secrets in Verdansk since 1984 (BOCW Season 6)... Which is confusing that ending says Project: Nova, Aether, some other secrets... I'm gonna wait the first season of Vanguard in Warzone...
No wonder the Brits knew about Projekt Nova and went to the North Pole where Renzov and Dmitry were
but wasn't Dr.Steiner had to be the only one who kept the documents about Projekt Nova? Wasn't the plan supposed to be classified?
This is not a prequel to Black Ops 1, is a prequel to Cold War, Cold War is a reboot
@@Fulcrox cold war isn't a reboot it takes place between bo1 and bo2
@@smiley5904 no, there is no BO2 on this timeline, because it's a prequel to Modern Warfare 2019
@@Fulcrox bo2 is still Canon the 1980s part of it they'll probably modernize David's timeline to fit with modernwarfare since it takes place only 4 years from now.
@@smiley5904 if the 2025 part is not canon then the 1980 isn't either, they we're directly connected, and the fact that they changed Woods and Mason behavior is a proof of it
Patiently waiting for the day COD or Battlefield release a WW2 game even half as good as World at War. Although I don’t think it’ll ever happen. The game was way ahead of its time.
no it was definitely in it's time, behind even, the ww2 shooter craze was starting to die down then and it wasn't really an upgarde from cod 4
Cod could be great again if they actually would put all the work in the Game mechanics , make it historical accurate , depression of war, instead making with full of endless cut scenes feels like they were making movie with hot shot Hollywood actor with smooth skin and perfect haircut, instead of game.
COD WW2 soundtrack , story of simple soldier in war, depression sadness of war death's that game was Greatest SP story i ever played in my life.
If a company makes a historically accurate ww2 game with a generic ass campaign where you invade beaches and fight in French countryside I would pay 100$.
@ᜐᜒᜆ᜔ᜑ᜔ I could go for an Italian front too.
Too generic and overdone.
I'd rather have something like the invasion of Poland, fall of France from the German/Allied perspective and Norwegian battles by the Royal Navy vs Kriegsmarine.
And the Kokoda Trail, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Philippines for the Pacific.
There's more to WW2 than Normandy, Stalingrad, and Berlin
@@rosaria8384 you don’t have to add that there’s more to world war 2 than Normandy and Berlin. You aren’t the only person in the world who knows ww2. I still want another Normandy and Berlin but done right.
@@rosaria8384 WINTER WAR!
Cod 3 was just that,minus D-Day. It featured Canadian and Polish soldiers
War does not create what it cannot destroy. Man can only provide the chaos or the peace that endures all possibilities.
Polina Petrova is one of the good things coming out for Rule 34, and of course. The Aussie character!
You have failed NNN then sir
@@guts-141 never participated it.
Friendly fire award for this guy X3.
How tf were those SS officers casually drinking if Berlin was completely leveled by air raids and Soviet artillery? It's like Vanguard skipped the Battle of Berlin entirely lmao
the black SS uniforms during the war were left to pageants and parades NOT officers..
Its amazing to see the similarities of this battleground with battlefield 5 "operation underground"
wait.... a team liberate berlin instead the soviets??
i miss call of duty waw
It’s like in the famous photo of The Soviet soldier raised the flag at the battle of Berlin in 1945
I'm worried what will happen to the Vanguard once the Cold War starts.
🤣🤣🤣
Well one member is from the Soviet Union so how will they treat her IDK
gotta love the complainers here ... someone will always have something to say ..
not sure about the "accuracy" of the events here but the game looks amazing .. thanks for sharing the video (s)
If you're not sure about the accuracy (which this game has little to none of) then perhaps you should keep quitlet when regarding the complainers, who are knowledgable about ww2 and know shit when we see it.
@@Kylo_ren518 wait .. so people are complaining about the “events” but not about the actual game ?
I’m I talking to historians or gamers here …
@@Andres-sp2go both, the game is just mw with a ww2 skin over it, nothing innovating or exciting, and bland. And in terms of history, it's bad too. Painting over the work of real heros with poc and women just because "political correctness"
@@Andres-sp2go also when you said "I'm not sure about the accuracy" you kinda input yourself into the topic of historical conversation, and should not be surprised when subjected to the topic.
11:09 lmao, the guy in the jacket has a japanese smg and the woman is holding the pistol like a rifle
yeah this game is broken
Why not and that's a glitch
"YOU'RE LUCKY BUGGER!" careful there mate, 2 missed words and we go home.
Looks like they got balls to put a swatiska
Hit markers in the campaign 😂, I’ve never wanted to die so much
Than turn it off
@@ctm479
Still though it shouldn’t even be a thing
@@SuddenStrike_HQ I prefer having no hit markers but there are people that would like it though.
12:08 Oh yeah just slide 15 feet under that debris with little to no momentum at all. Forget historical accuracy, this game can't even get physics right.
Old mate is acting mighty cheeky for being just a Sturmfuhrer (2Lt) going by his collar patches
Why can't they just speak actual German in the cutscenes?
@Jojo Betzler because snowfakes will try to cancel the game.
they re use the voice lines from the older CoDs
God this is so fundamentally stupid but also funny. Thanks for the upload!
Projekt Nova...
Steiner: All across America, Dragovich has sleeper cell agents waiting for the signal to release Nova-6.
Looking back at this… Activision and other game companies are literally trying to put Avengers in this game.
Why they didnt meet with Reznov and Dimitri?. Because when the berlin is attack by the Red Army. It close to crossover timeline between World At War.
This aint treyrach
This brings back memories from the old modern warfare two days because when you get outside it
looks like Washington
This look so good cant say the same about the multiplayer
Fun fact: The vests worn by the German soldiers here appear to be the Italian "Samurai" mag carrier vest...
People out here talking about the good ol days of World at War when at 11:07 there's clearly a misprocess and the lady is hold a pistol but her hands are in a rifle position.
Modern Warfare was COD's last chance at being a decent game and the reason for its popularity was overshadowed by the big bags of money rolling in. All of us who bought and played MW (2019) are the cause for this game to be shit. We just extended the mentality that gaming companies have of "Oh they bought the game we put effort into, lets make worse/effortless subsequent games and ride this hype train till its out of fuel". Its like a manipulative relationship, we just gotta cut it off now and stop buying these shit games.
Here's my nostalgia take; bring back the golden days of 2009-2013 gaming. God tier releases back then.
Even though this game is trash, there are a few things I like. The transitions, the cutscenes and even some of the uniforms of the characters.
what the hell is this haha? Call of duty has abandoned all historical accuracy
COD has NEVER been historically accurate
@@agelessrebellion8271 they were pretty accurate in cod1 and cod2. for sure. they used to respect locations, factions, weapons.
@@agelessrebellion8271 Call of duty was historically accurate in the past. Maybe not the most realistic, but historically accurate with an authentic feel. You may have just started playing cod when modern warfare came out, so I understand your perspective.
@@agelessrebellion8271 COD MW was never about history. But it does have a few realistic situations in its campaign.
@@mrobermind i was playing COD since its release on ps2. there are vauge aspects based off history. but for example in COD WAW you would not see germans running around in their formal attire on the front. the russians were forced back during the battle of berlin at the start- the battle of seelow was an utter failure in the beginning. could i go on? yes. do i need to? i hope not.
This generation of games that try and re-write history will never hold a candle to the ones we grew up with from COD1 & United Offensive and Call of duty 2 with capt price and macgregor's funny moments aswell as the old modern warfare versions of callf of duty too, no cosmetics, pure skill in the weapons we used and none of this pay to win or soldier dress up stuff, and the fact that you got stuck with the classes you could choose from and what your soldier wore for that map!.
As much as i do like games like Battlefield 5 and a few others where you can outfit your class / soldier to how you want to play, i do think the old classics were just as good in their own right and helped us players fall in love with such games.
But for me the sad truth is that most indie / 3rd party games or mods that add immersion and realism tend to end up being far more better than most recent games that have come out and don't always persue things just for profit.
World at war really aged well
I guess in 1945 Berlin the fallschirmjäger was still being dropped in late war with full early war kit. lol
Game is built with passion, like the old cod games a master piece
you must be joking that this cash grab was made with passion.
@@dgbooser265 passion is not a word known to activision
😂
@@gavintibor6816 passion is not activision’s passion
Why does this have the “Avengers” vibes especially with shades of Hydra?
Polina Petrova = Avengers Assemble!Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow
Bruh. It's literally inglorious Bastards the game
And a lot less boring, but that is a low bar to hurdle.
Don’t forget The Dirty Dozen
Inglorious is a satire, this isn't
@@Fulcrox kek
that's a bad thing?
What is this, Star Wars Battlefront?! Also, the ending is so Splinter Cell like, urrgh-!
