I like how the developer said it's gonna be morally gray and how MW1-3 was about great american soldiers. Because in MW1 you're fighting a radical terrorist cell *with* the russians on your side and nearly set off a nuclear war because you didn't do good enough of a job. And in 2 you're fighting a against a retaliation force because your own general decided that war is good for people, making you(unknowingly) the bad guy until the very end where you find out what's up with that. And 3 just ties up loose ends and is kinda shit but keeps the spirit. I think. I haven't replayed it since release and i don't want to anyway. Meanwhile new game takes everything US did to middle east, throws that onto Russia and is only missing "america fuck yeah" song. I don't think I've seen a harder 180 in my life and I saw a guy almost die on a halfpipe doing one.
Ah yes mw 1 where you fight with the russians on your side .....against other russians said russians(the ones you are fighting ultranationalist) who were practicly russian taliban working hand in hand with the terroist not sadam hussain in actual iraq and sudi arabia and who later became the majority political party that split up the more radical elements stage an attack on their own people in. Order to ignite a war between russia and america((Shepard helped)) and 3 where russia invades all of europe and commits genocide
@@stevededicatdram8538 Remember, Makarov and Shepard manipulated Russia to invade after the airport attack where the US and NATO were framed for the slaughter. The entire conflict was a ploy for WW3, and both sides were played by their nationalist assholes.
MW3 just shows the conflict on a massive scale now that the Russians are also carrying out attacks in Europe as well. The entire plot was pushing them out of America as Delta force and trying to calm them down enough to have peace talks. Then makarov comes and fucks it up again
It's just that companies can't make Americans outright villains when they are catering to Americans. It's not only bad business, but they would have gotten in MUCH worse shit than what they got now. Really it's a loss no matter what
Maybe they will do one about the rapes in germany after ww2, or the katyn massacre or maybe the cluster bomb attack on a hospital in 1995, oh wait that was the russians, both sides can do horrid things in war, but everyone in the comments would rather play the victim card than admit that bc america bad russia good right???

@TheProphetMuhammad No he means the cases that happened in real life. Like the incident the Highway mission is portrayed from and then COD just makes Russia the bad guys in the game.
You know, Russia is always a bad guy and America is always "the worlds bodyguard" and the best country in the universe. Russia is a beautiful country with rich culture, great food, awesome nature and caring people with great hospitality, but that's what Americans don't want you to know.They are hypocrites, calling others evil, but themselves, yet they make all the wars. Let's fuck their propaganda and open the eyes!
Honestly, even if they removed all their mentions of Russia in the context of the presented war crimes, and showed them for what they really were, I'm still willing to bet that many people besides myself would agree that generally presenting real-life war crimes as recent as these is pretty insensitive. If you want to talk about shit like this in an entertainment medium, you better be really fucking careful about the way you present it, cause these things happened, and being as recent as they are, their consequences are still being felt by many people

That’s what angers me about the war going on, for years there have been negative stereotypes about Russia and now, the russian government seems to have become the enemies we always depicted them as.
Aww mistreated in make believe movies and video games. I wonder how the people they robbed, tortured, raped, beaten and killed feel? I'm sure you're gonna come back with your whataboutisms, what about this guy and that guy. Yeah, it's bad. But because they've killed people unjustly in the past means we have to put up with it today?
They are not enemies in the game either. Barkov is dictator of Uzikstan. NATO and Russians constantly try to not engage with eachother along the campaign. Everything that happens is a war between insurgents and Barkovs regim. At the end you can see that the Russians (Kamarov) are actually cooperating with NATO in the war on terror.

Yeah, coming up with war crimes for your "vanilla Russian villain" is one thing, and is acceptable. Rewriting the history, however, like the Highway of Death, is a whole different story and sets a dangerous precedent. I'm with you on this one.
I would have loved to see a split campaign. Half Russian side, half US side, with some Peshmerga levels. Do it GRRM style, where nobody's really evil or really good. Russian leader is a soldier following his orders for his country. American leader is the same. The Russians must crush opposition and an insurgency, and that means a lot of ugly up close killing, house to house, with infantry and tanks. Sometimes insurgents kill their buddies in the blink of an eye, and it makes dealing with civilians near impossible and always terrifying. Americans do cool special operations shit and have drones, but the violence is intense and they'll go beyond ROE for their missions. They still operate and kill, knowing it'll kill and cause suffering for civilians, but it denies Russia strategic assets. Then there are some levels as a Peshmerga, showing the realities of insurgency. This includes torturing collaborators, killing soldiers, and planting IED's where there will be civilian casualties. And following an ambush, they execute everyone surviving from the convoy. That would have been Call of Duty really stepping up and giving a serious true to life war story.

Russia immediately attacks with millions of troops without a formal declaration of war? Not exactly a valid casus belli just because one American was found at a crime scene.

@nerd Surfer Not even the russian soldier just says they are hanged because they didn't obey, and in a forced labor context they could just have refused to work because they wanted water. Like it's isn't common to publicly execute people to set examples, ask the nazis, the spanish inquisition, etc.
It used to be Russian insurgents and terrorists who actually murdered the Russian president and tons of Russian civilians and police, all while trying to overthrow the Russian government. In MW3 we would even play as a Russian soldier fighting to bring down Makorov's terrorist group. But this time around it's pretty much the Russian military as a whole, so I think that makes it quite different from before.

derp404 derpinator Afghanistan (1979-1989) The army of the Soviet Union killed large numbers of Afghans to suppress their resistance. Up to 2 million Afghans were killed by the Soviet forces and their proxies. In one notable incident the Soviet Army committed mass killing of civilians in the summer of 1980.
Lol, the actual highway of death didn't involve the bombing of civilians. Those were Iraqi military personnel performing an armed retreat from the country they invaded and fired on coalition forces. Not to mention that most of the vehicles were found to have been abandoned ahead of time. Why on Earth would Kuwaiti civilians try to retreat from their own country, when the only aggressors were the invading Iraqi army? Unless you're talking about raping and pillaging Iraqi civilians. The civilian trucks on the highway were stolen by Iraqi soldiers and were filled with looted goods. Calling the attack a "war crime" is ridiculous. I think some people confuse the Iraq wars, and just assume the whole thing was bad without thinking. That's not the case. Unless we're going to play the game of _"you can't be too mean to the aggressor because they're weak. Give them a chance to slaughter, rape, and pillage some more, first."_

And even then they praise a lot of inventions from that time and people that ended in the employ of US government agencies like Braun. Really German is only a federal identity so most people will be proud of their people (Saxon, Bavarian, Thuringian, Frankonian...) or federal state/city. Then there is the nut cases where people have a good perception of Nazis even tho they are scarce. Also the enemy treatment mainly boils down to either the specific time slot of Nazi terror or successor governments on the moon or some shit so nothing associated with postwar governments usually. Whenever "Germans" ARE portrayed as the bad guys though it's usually in a deceptive or tech-savy but complicit way and usually some underground Nazi network or middle eastern cartel operating in Germany. Then there is the GDR which gets surprisingly little traction and most movies where the GDR is depicted as evil are from within Germany which is kind of odd - like there definitely is foreign made content too but nowhere near as much as German-made content. All in all I think we really like hating on our past ha ha. In comparison to Russia Germans definitely get the benefit of the doubt - whenever Germans are depicted it's usually ideological or individual in nature. Whenever Russians are depicted it's ideological, systemic or corrupt with much wider implications of complacency and contemporary critique.
Im bored of nazis. It would be okay to have german person gone bad like many other nationalities. Like with cultural understanding, no stereotypical lazy character. Even russian stereotypes are old, same stuff for 60 years.

The thing is that this game series made Russia the worst guys possible. It’s not “blaming Russia” for anything that happens outside of the universe. It is pretty ironic though.
I thought the ending of the campaign was fucking stupid but besides that and the over the top Evil Russian portrayal, the campaign was actually a masterpiece. The well crafted levels and scenarios arguably some of the best since the old MW games.
What’s sad to me is after staying in Russia two times for three months each, I find Russians and Americans to be really similar in many ways. I was in the sticks, closer to Kazakhstan than anywhere, and I learned to love the Russian people I met. And this was at a military town, mostly patriots, and not super into Americans.

Because in MW1 you're fighting a radical terrorist cell *with* the russians on your side and nearly set off a nuclear war because you didn't do good enough of a job.
And in 2 you're fighting a against a retaliation force because your own general decided that war is good for people, making you(unknowingly) the bad guy until the very end where you find out what's up with that.

Remember, Makarov and Shepard manipulated Russia to invade after the airport attack where the US and NATO were framed for the slaughter. The entire conflict was a ploy for WW3, and both sides were played by their nationalist assholes.
MW3 just shows the conflict on a massive scale now that the Russians are also carrying out attacks in Europe as well. The entire plot was pushing them out of America as Delta force and trying to calm them down enough to have peace talks. Then makarov comes and fucks it up again

"not political"
'fictional' town literally bears the exact same name as place of real-life massacre
Honestly, even if they removed all their mentions of Russia in the context of the presented war crimes, and showed them for what they really were, I'm still willing to bet that many people besides myself would agree that generally presenting real-life war crimes as recent as these is pretty insensitive. If you want to talk about shit like this in an entertainment medium, you better be really fucking careful about the way you present it, cause these things happened, and being as recent as they are, their consequences are still being felt by many people
When people want stuff to be "non political" it usually means non lgtbq stuff or stuff like that.

Yeah, coming up with war crimes for your "vanilla Russian villain" is one thing, and is acceptable.
Rewriting the history, however, like the Highway of Death, is a whole different story and sets a dangerous precedent.
I'm with you on this one.
I would have loved to see a split campaign. Half Russian side, half US side, with some Peshmerga levels. Do it GRRM style, where nobody's really evil or really good.
Russian leader is a soldier following his orders for his country. American leader is the same. The Russians must crush opposition and an insurgency, and that means a lot of ugly up close killing, house to house, with infantry and tanks. Sometimes insurgents kill their buddies in the blink of an eye, and it makes dealing with civilians near impossible and always terrifying.
Americans do cool special operations shit and have drones, but the violence is intense and they'll go beyond ROE for their missions. They still operate and kill, knowing it'll kill and cause suffering for civilians, but it denies Russia strategic assets.
Then there are some levels as a Peshmerga, showing the realities of insurgency. This includes torturing collaborators, killing soldiers, and planting IED's where there will be civilian casualties. And following an ambush, they execute everyone surviving from the convoy.
That would have been Call of Duty really stepping up and giving a serious true to life war story.

Rafael Sotuyo so fucking what? It’s a video game
I'm ok with the russians being the bad guys, but MW2019 just feels like stale anti-Russia propaganda.
It does and feels like they are being shown to be just a bunch of Pyschopathic thugs.
It used to be Russian insurgents and terrorists who actually murdered the Russian president and tons of Russian civilians and police, all while trying to overthrow the Russian government. In MW3 we would even play as a Russian soldier fighting to bring down Makorov's terrorist group.
But this time around it's pretty much the Russian military as a whole, so I think that makes it quite different from before.
ikr. anti-russian propaganda is still propaganda, and its disgusting
@Robin Elliot What are you even talking about?
@Robin Elliot Hmm Russians did not do anything to the flight. You are an example of a sheep buying propaganda. Next time provide proof of your lies before spouting nonsense. There is plenty of crimes committed by them but that does not give anyone the right to make up lies.

Lol, the actual highway of death didn't involve the bombing of civilians. Those were Iraqi military personnel performing an armed retreat from the country they invaded and fired on coalition forces. Not to mention that most of the vehicles were found to have been abandoned ahead of time. Why on Earth would Kuwaiti civilians try to retreat from their own country, when the only aggressors were the invading Iraqi army? Unless you're talking about raping and pillaging Iraqi civilians. The civilian trucks on the highway were stolen by Iraqi soldiers and were filled with looted goods. Calling the attack a "war crime" is ridiculous. I think some people confuse the Iraq wars, and just assume the whole thing was bad without thinking. That's not the case. Unless we're going to play the game of _"you can't be too mean to the aggressor because they're weak. Give them a chance to slaughter, rape, and pillage some more, first."_
There were civilians fleeing the war along with the retreating Iraqi Troops, the Coalition did kill civilians in the highway of death.

I promise you, being German we get the same enemy treatment
Dark Gn0ll Correct me if I’m wrong but you Germans got a worse treatment right? I heard like you guys can’t even be a bit nationalistic because everyone else in the world will call you Nazis right?
@@mingQWERTY not anymore really - now they call us whoosies for not being proud of what there is to be proud of apart from the 12 years of Nazi reign. And even then they praise a lot of inventions from that time and people that ended in the employ of US government agencies like Braun.
Really German is only a federal identity so most people will be proud of their people (Saxon, Bavarian, Thuringian, Frankonian...) or federal state/city.
Then there is the nut cases where people have a good perception of Nazis even tho they are scarce.
Also the enemy treatment mainly boils down to either the specific time slot of Nazi terror or successor governments on the moon or some shit so nothing associated with postwar governments usually. Whenever "Germans" ARE portrayed as the bad guys though it's usually in a deceptive or tech-savy but complicit way and usually some underground Nazi network or middle eastern cartel operating in Germany. Then there is the GDR which gets surprisingly little traction and most movies where the GDR is depicted as evil are from within Germany which is kind of odd - like there definitely is foreign made content too but nowhere near as much as German-made content. All in all I think we really like hating on our past ha ha.
In comparison to Russia Germans definitely get the benefit of the doubt - whenever Germans are depicted it's usually ideological or individual in nature. Whenever Russians are depicted it's ideological, systemic or corrupt with much wider implications of complacency and contemporary critique.
Of Nazis really where as bad as they are portrayed it is weird the war didn't end in 1941
Im bored of nazis. It would be okay to have german person gone bad like many other nationalities. Like with cultural understanding, no stereotypical lazy character. Even russian stereotypes are old, same stuff for 60 years.
