___Corrections___
6:46: The Kar98K shown here does actually eject spent rounds, this inaccuracy seems to only applied to certain other bolt action rifles in the game.
45:55 The Mosin Nagant in game appears to be actually be modelled on the M38 Carbine version which were primarily given to guncrews and non frontline combatants, it should be the standard issue M91/30 Mosin Nagant that we originally mistook it for instead.
If you have any questions, corrections, or extra inaccuracies then please let us know in the comments!

Love your vids frosty!
Will you make more videos of the OG CoDs?
Nice work @TheFrosty_1 good jobb
A huge problem with FPS games that have muzzle flashes such as the one in game the mg42 and many more is an eye ache for people who are going to be getting seizures or not. Before you play a game and to developers please make sure that you do not give anyone a sezuire. Epilepsy is a rare disease and it is hard to see it just like autism.
If you get sezuires for playing a video game then don't play a video game. Do something else.
Sezuire/ Epilepsy Warnings are a big deal pay attention to a lot of these types of warnings. Your health is number 1 and family plus finance.
There was no PVT. Lawrence he was a commander/ a high ranking officer in the British Military that the movie portrayed it well on the side the art of war not T.E Lawrence. The movie is pure fiction but they show a great picture of unconventional warfare and everything else is fictional.
Time to learn everything about World War 2 again.
I have a playlist about it, but…it has Call of Duty games.
this is becoming my new favourite series
Same, I can’t wait for frosty to do COD 3 next.
Same as long as he doesn’t pad the numbers with guns or technical errors.
79th also yup
i hope he dose its interesting@@DarkPsychoMessiah
This game represents "Less is More" to me. I love it more than the ones with ultrarealistic details, over the top skins, microtransactions and broken promises.
Also represents the times, as all of what you said weren't even a thing yet. I at least want to return to the time of finished, working products that need at most a few patches through it's life. I just remembered Tropico, which worked at launch, but it had/has a patch you can install with some fixes and adjustments as well as extra content.
Hey fellow Thomas fan
Good evening.
@@tomyoldiron6715 You too man

Speaking of Medal of Honor, it would be nice for you to one day cover Airborne and Pacific Assault. It’s more fun knowing Pacific Assault likely got the Makin Atoll Raid more accurate than the one in World at War.
Pacific and Allied assault NEED console ports.
@@cadjebushey6524 different era
they got rising sun and frontlines
They'd have trouble finding many things wrong with Pacific Assault, it's the most accurate game of either Medal Of Honor Or Call Of Duty as franchises.
@@cadjebushey6524OORAH!!! Absolutely!!!! 👍👍👍
i cant wait for a MOH Airborne or MOH pacific assault video !!
i wonder if @TheFrosty_1 would ever do the modern takes on MOH games
I have to mention that the US mission where you rescue Price and Ingram happened 2 years after Kommandobefehl (Commando Order) was issued, where it states that any and all Allied commandos who are captured would be summarily executed, even if properly uniformed or attempting to surrender. And if caught in enemy uniforms, they would be handed over to SD and executed, if they weren't killed in battle beforehand.
So by the time the 101 Airborne starts their missions, Price and Ingram would be long dead
Good point, thanks for the input
One more thing. U.S. Paratroopers in Normandy had camo canopy parachutes, not white, like depicted in media, even Brothers in Arms gets this detail wrong.
Band of Brothers gets alot wrong. Really isn't as accurate as people always think it is
@@K-Nyne The game Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30 and Earned in Blood.
@@jerbs5346 oh I'm sorry I read it wrong. My answer still stands though :p
@@K-Nyne I agreed, too. I just didn't want to be lectured.
34:14 RIP Captain Price :(
I'l see you in hell captain Price
Don't worry he responded in MW
By shooting back?
@@hmm8445 Goodbye Captain Price
@@hmm8445 That's actually the great granchild of world war 2 Price.
This is by far my favorite COD campaign. It's got good variety, healthpacks, the 3 nation setup, big battles, clandestine operations, a micheal giacchino score, and it's not too scripted to have bad replay value.
Would love to see historical inaccuracies in sniper elite games
He have to get throat surgery after that video 😂
Inaccuracies aside, it's the only WW2 game where you're fighting both the axis and "allied" Soldiers which makes it really interesting. The German thought you're a soviet, and the Soviets thought you're a German sniper.
I'm talking about V2
Dont forget about expansion called united offensive and medal of honor allied assault
Ah good times.
Don't worry, they're on the list
I hope he does CoD2 Big Red One, forgotten but underrated game
Imagine fighting desperately in Warsaw to regroup with the 4th army only to realise that they're chilling in Iran
Spoiler Alert Germany Loses 😂
No you ruined the ending for me lol
*Sad German noises*
Noooo! I was still on the season 1: 1939 😢
@@fortunateghost7438BLITZ-KRIEG Season 1
Oh, FLICKST DICH! I barely started the darn vid!
Please make a "Every historical Inaccuracy in Medal of Honor" series
OH YEA
-koolaid man
Agreed
I really wanna see the Pacific Assault and Airborne inaccuracies so badly
50:00 the ammo pouch in the upper left is a soviet Kirza pattern pouch, these were not made until the mid 1950s.
and the moist on the table is actually a Finnish one, you can tell by its rear sight
You missed some. Correct me if I'm wrong.
- During battle of the buldge, Martin didn't wear proper uniform. He still wore the same uniform from D-Day, despite multiplayer mode has the proper uniform. Same thing can be said for Sgt.Evans during V2 rocket mission. He still wore Airborne uniform despite already joined SAS.
- The snipers section of Pavlov House mission have normal Kar98ks with no bolt animation and don't share ammo with regular ones.
- Pvt. Elder was training with 101st despite being the 82nd. It would make more sense if he was 101st.
We mention our character still wears the M42 in Recogne. We also mention the snipers not sharing ammo as a whole. We also mention 82nd troops training with us
@@K-Nyne Thanks for correcting me. But I just noticed another: In Brecourt Manor mission, Sgt.Moody commanded 2 LT. despite being a Sgt.
45:32 it is worth noting that Repnikov's house was much further away from the square of the fallen fighters, a few dozens meters behind the train station, which itself was about 2 blocks away from the square.
The Jericho trumpets on the Stukas are either for gameplay purposes so you would notice them coming in for attack or a misconception in that they always make that sound by design and not via an add-on part
Or just rule of cool.
Still, to this day, my absolute favorite call of duty. No contest
29:49: I wasn't aware that Jason Statham had done voiceover for this game.
When celebrity appearances in CoD were not fucking stupid :)
@@K-Nyne To be fair, Jason wasn't the household name he is now when the first Call of Duty was made.
The United Fronts mod sorta fixed some of these, in training for example, the 30 cal is used instead of the MG42 when crawling under the barb wire.
Its really good to make an inaccuracy video of brothers in arms.
I think it's gonna be a youtube short
@@sussyb1471why?
@@zolfilegend It has very few inaccuracies I believe so
@@sussyb1471 yeah i believe too...
@@zolfilegend I have just minded a detail, in Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway, the US troops wore green uniforms, I was wondering are those accurated or not
Hey Frosty!
Another thing to Note about the "Panzergrenadiers":
They appear to be wearing to "Schlupfhemd" style Camo to be worn over the fieldblouse, but the Fieldblouse itself is missing.
The shirt they are wearing is the Field Undershirt, which would not even hold the obviously missing collar tabs.
Amazing video and I love your content
Thank you, for both the kind words and for supporting the channel!
@@TheFrosty_1Can you cover movies too or just games? If you do another game, can you do Delta Force Black Hawk Down. Both PC and PS2 versions?
DF BHD game? lmao that stuff has nearly nothing to point@@toby1439
thank you so, so much for removing the preview at the start of the video recently lol. Thats one of my biggest pet peeves with modern youtube
Still more historically accurate than WWII and Vanguard
But it still shows that COD was never historically accurate to begin with.
No game is, that's the point of this video series. But at least this one shows respect for history
Gonna be honest I think WW2 offends me more than Vanguard
Vanguard was obviously made as an expansion to Warzone, so all the wacky cosmetics and bullshit attachments make sense, and i honestly think it would be way better if they just went all B-movie rag tag team of soldiers like an 60s movie with Nazi conspiracies, they flirted with the idea but never committed
WW2 has no excuses, is just an copy of Band of brothers and downplays the concentration camps so much, like, they downplay the holocaust to say it was used on American pows and like
Yeah they were but I am sure concentration camps were famous for an whole other reason
They simply don't mention the holocaust or it's victims despite having an concentration camp
@@jordandino417 I think when people say "historically accurate," they probably mean "historically authentic." As in, it feels like the setting its portraying.
@@K-NyneNot too much in the soviet campaign :b
Love these videos, i hope one of these days he goes to the brothers in arms series
Have you considered doing this with the Brothers in Arms series? It’s one of my all time favorite WW2 game series, and think it would be interesting to take a look at?
Yes we have
I recommend a mod for this game: Call of Duty United Fronts. Not only does it expand the game and combined COD and COD:UO, but it also fixes a lot of the historical problems you listed
I wouldn't say "a lot", it fixes like maybe 5 of the inaccuracies in this video. It doesn't go as far as the WaW mods. But this video will still be a helpful guide, to know what should be changed.
I think quality wise Back to Fronts for CoD2 is better. United Fronts had so many new rifle models with mismatched texture quality.
United Fronts maybe fixed some stuff, but added these boring recycled levels with terrible level design
*Sees the AA patch.* " Oh, the athletic alcoholics. "
YAY, the history defender is back!!!!
13:26 this is a model panzerfaust 60.
this pattern didn't enter use with the German Army unitl around September 1944.
It should be either the Panzerfaust 30 K or G (klein or groß)
thank you, i was waiting for vid about legendary cod 1
I'm kind of wondering when you're going to make a inaccuracy series on the Medal of Honor games. As I remember a lot from the old medal of Honor games, especially medal of Honor rising sun, you saw Marines using m1 rifles during the Battle of the philippines, and as well even not even wearing historical uniforms at that point. And that's not only to mention the other accounts of other things they got wrong in various other games. Plus as well if you take a look at Medal of Honor frontline, or as well Medal of honor European assault you do see a few variations of inaccuracies here and there as well.
you should do brothers in arms! one of the most accurate ww2 game franchise ever
Pls, we need a Brothers in Arms historical review
I guess that will be a short video lol
It's on the list, and spoiler: it won't be short
Would be interesting seeing a vid on CoD 3. It was very rushed and came out between 2 amazing CoD games (CoD 2 and CoD world at war) and made some pretty big fixes from CoD 2 but idk how easy it would be getting your hands on it
Hey Frosty 1 I was hoping you would make an inaccuracies episode for this cod. As pretty usual a very entertaining video, always looking forward to see your content. Keep it up bro 😁😁😁
Something I wanted and finally new video
hell yeah, I was waiting for this
Finally!!!!! The video I've been waiting for!!!!!
god bless i was just about to eat food LOL love these videos bro keep up the great work
Great video
Awesome Video once again!
Will you do any of the Medal of Honor Games?
inaccruacies in first call of duty game:
wrong unit takes out the guns at brecourt manor and the manor itself to show both events in one mission in order to save game space and calculating power.
some weapons appear earlier than they should
camos are wrong
inaccruacies in modern call of duty:
one woman alone inspires russians to fight harder for stalingrad, weapons that either never saw combat or were produced in quantity that didn't go above 100 units are scattered all over the place, weapons have idiotic never existing attachments, wrong units wearing wrong camos and japanese soldiers speaking english asking player if he speaks japanese...
the difference? real COD games despite inanccruacies treated their setting with respect
while modern cods just use it for complete bullshit that no matter how hard it tries can never pass as serious
This is the first time I've seen Price's corpse in the game. Although,the last time I have played CoD1 was like in 2005...19 years ago...
You know i would like to see an Sniper Elite Historical Inaccuracy saga videos i think it would be intriguin to see how many inaccuracies can get that game saga.. anyhow another godly video from Frosty 1, learning more than what i actually know is always great.
Awesome! SO EXCITED!
Love this video I hope we get more I'd love to see one of the expansion of this one and for big red one
Would be cool to see more of these "older" games like Brothers in Arms, Sniper Elite: Berlin and even the Delta Force series.
Also, great game despite it's inaccuracies. Probably one of the best WW2 games out there, not THE best, but obviously up there. Fun fact, internally this was named "The Medal of Honor killer"
Also yeah the fact that you don't secure Carentan or hill 30 is criminal.
Still one of the best Call of Duty games.
Even with lots of innacuracies, this game made me fall in love with history of WW2 and WW1
Yep, considering later CODs still had over 100 innacuracies, these for 2003 is quite impressive tbh.
Yep
Same, Although there were limitations they did a brilliant job of portraying wars especially back in the golden age of gaming that being the 2000s-2010s
Happy Easter Sunday Everyone ❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Happy Easter! 🐣 ❤
It's 5 am and I'm eating breakfast, you posted just in time!
The Thompson is an open bolt smg, the bolt would slam shut, after firing the last round. Those mags didn't have a bolt hold open
I stand corrected, as per Forgotten Weapons, the M1A1 Thompsons had a bolt hold open
Fantastic stuff.
Appreciate the video. This was in my opinion, one of the best COD games. Even with the inaccuracies, much better than most.
Great vid
Ummm
This is dope id love to see you do the medal of honor games at some point
The man's finally getting around to it. Well done!
You guys should definitely continue the series with some of the ww2 medal of honor games!
Hello, This was a pretty good video. Could you do one for the soviet campain of Company of Heroes 2?
Would you consider doing a mini-video on inaccuracies in Beach Invasion 1944 & Beach Invasion 1945? They’re very small indie games so it would probably be like a 10 minute video at most. Would love to see them get attention though!
4:40 wow, CoD is so accurate it even has american disregard to local names. fantastic
Playing this game feels really cathartic once you realize how large the franchise has become since then. Before No Russian, The Numbers, and WW3, it all started as a simple WW2 game made to honor the soldiers who fought for our country while also being a fun game as well.
Another banger ❤
Happy Easter
I just finshed a playthoghe of this great game and was thinking about your channle as i was playing i knew it was a matter of time for you to get to cod 1
Wonderfull video, would love to see a video about CoD 3
He returns!
Thank you
I can’t wait for you to do Call Of Duty 3 . I love those videos
These videos are great! Highly detailed, chockfull of information I didn't learn about at school.
I'm curious if you're willing to look for historical inaccuracies in the Sniper Elite series. Especially the later games; Sniper Elite 3, 4 and 5. SE3 takes place in North Africa, SE4 is in the rare setting of occupied Italy (slightly before and during the resistance), and SE5 takes place in occupied France (while aiding the resistance). Sniper Elite 4 takes place in less common location, so there might be unknown information there. (Not many games take place in WW2 Italy, let alone have knowledge about it. Battlefield 5 for example forgets about it completely.)
YAYA FROSTY UPLOADED AGAIN! LESSS GOOOO!$! Will you be doing Battlefield 1 next?
Very nice
Your service to both the Galactic Republic and the historical cause is greatly appreciated!
@@TheFrosty_1He will be granted the rank of master, and you will be granted the rank of grand master
it really seems youve created a formula with almost endless potential. Id love to see a video in similar style about coh1 and/or 2
I just realized that you talked a little bit about the multiplayer maps in this video. This has made me realize that it could be quite interesting to see you do a breakdown of each games multiplayers. You could do a section breaking down the maps based on real locations, then the realism of the maps that are historical fiction, before finally breaking down every other aspect of the multiplayer (Such as weapons and their attachments, kill-streaks, and historically inspired cosmetics).
I think when it comes to blatantly incorrect cosmetics like Bozo The Clown and the like you should just add one point for each of them. Then when it comes to uniforms that are inaccurate, but based on real uniforms, you can break down each aspect that is wrong. Finally, historically inspired uniforms can be broken down fully.
I wouldn't expect all of these videos to be the same length as the campaign videos but I still think they'd be interesting nonetheless. Especially once you get into games with wackier kill-streaks like Black Ops. Not all of them could be done this way, but I think that myself and others would still be interested in seeing the multiplayers broken down in the same way as the campaign.
Covering Medal of Honor Allied Assault would be awesome.
Kinda curious how many inaccuracy will be in medal of honor: Pacific assault
Would you ever cover a WWI game like Battlefield 1 or Isonzo? Or is it more WWII and later? Just curious :)
P.S. Love the video! I love learning more about history through this fun type of content. I look forward to the next upload, whatever it may be! Keep up the great work :)
Really nice. Do you think you'll ever look into Call of Duty 2: Big Red One? Apparently, it seems to have the most historical accuracy, especially since the devs got a lot of input from the actual veterans of BRO.
Ah man, no dramatic intro? I loved those…
Its nice to see TIK getting some recognition for his stalingrad series...by the way maybe you could take a look at earliest ww2 RTS games sudden strike series? And cod 1despite its flaws is really a very entertaining game that gets the setting correctly
1: The invasion flags should not be facing the correct way. They should be backwards, so as to be appearing to charge at the enemy.
2: During World War II, pistols were held with one hand. Some in-game are, some are not.
3: The BAR is seemingly modeled off of the M1918, when it should be the M1918A2.
4: The stock on the MP-40 should be unfolded.
5: I don't believe the bolt on the StG-44 should lock back, but I could be wrong.
6: It is impossible to reload a scoped rifle with a stripper clip. The rounds should be loaded individually.
7: A slight correction of an inaccuracy: The TT-33 failed to fully replace the previous Nagant M1895 revolver in the course of the war. There should be a few Tokarevs, but predominantly Nagant revolvers for the Soviets.
Actual inaccuracy count: 213 for the game, one for the corrections
Also the British Should have handguns like the Inglis High Power, Enfield No. 2 And Webley Revolvers
5. The variation of the rifle that became the StG44 was closed bolt at that point. I *think* the MP43 and early MP44's(?) were open bolt, as was the MKb42(H).
@@kylebrady969 The MP43 and MP44 or mechanically identical to the StG44, so they would also be closed bolt. ruclips.net/video/UXkpFajH66A/видео.htmlsi=sQ2h__eqp6yBqpme
The Stars Forward is a recent thing, during WW2 they were worn as you would display the flag.
1. That was done AFTER ww2
3. The BAR is modelled correctly, its foregrip is correctly lowered under the barrel, the only difference is that CoD's model doesnt have the black plastic stock due to shortage of the Walnut stock, which was only introduced in 1942, but well over 18,000 were produced with the old Walnut stocks so it could be forgiven
4. You dont need to unfold the stock on an Mp40, it can help with stability but isnt a necessity
what about a video of Brothers in Arms accuracies/inaccuries? i think it would be fun
can't wait for call of duty 3
*Finally, Frosty the First delivering us with more Historical Accurate Content*
The Moral of this video: When making a game themed around WW2, films like Enemy at the Gates are not historical sources.
Ok stalaboo
You should do Company of Heroes 2, campaign in one video and multiplayer in another
2003 Call of Duty. Honestly, more accurate than Vanguard, not like that is difficult. Even with the, understandable due to technical limitations, inaccuracies, this game is still pretty good on being accurate. I certainly liked this game.
Of course then there's the Soviet campaign which starts off with Enemy at the Gates the playable movie. That can be excused as CoD loves doing this kind of stuff for dramatic and intense moments.
(Edit to correct for wrong year listed)
Yeah and if cod 1 2 3 united offensive finest hour big red one final fronts and roads to victory are being remastered that would fix those problems
Uhh this is from 2003, not 1999.
Never thought I'd hear "impregnated" in my ww2 historical analysis
I love how much of cods aoul ahows in older titles, you can feel the effort and accuracy mods can further perfect games and add more immersion
Oh boy he’s done COD2 and now COD1 I can’t wait for the COD3 video
You should definitely cover the Brothers in Arms games at some point.
34:17 my reaction to all inaccuracy in this game
This guy is so good that I thought the video was about to end but then I checked and I was at minute 23 only 😅😅
Will there be a Analysis to assassin's Creed?
I really like your videos, I was especially surprised that you understand the subject of the Eastern Front. I would like to see your videos about historical mistakes in Medal of Honor and Call of duty United offensive
Company Of Heroes 2 is also guilty of using Enemy At The Gates for it's scenes set in Stalingrad.
As do most western propaganda pieces against the soviets in ww2.
The worst part is that it came out in 2013. By then anyone who still followed EatG was just willfully ignorant.
@@mobiusraptor7i love the stalinist cope comment's
@@spencersecrest6001 This has nothing to do with being Pro-Soviet.It's getting history in games right.
@@spencersecrest6001 Besides,during the Cold War,both the Soviet Union and the West crack down on innocent protestors and supported authoritarian regimes throughout the world.Neither side were any better than the other.
Wish they could remake the game
I really like that you acknowledged that a lot of these decisions are so because of ease of development or hardware limitations, and I'm doubly glad you'll keep pointing them out nonetheless. Great video as usual!
It would be great if you did these for the Brothers in Arms series, since they were quite proud of their historical accuracy back in the day.
Yes it's about time we see this.
