Dark and gritty, a GOOD thing.
Best maps for HC SnD imo
Flame thrower mission was brutal. Especially the trench section, where Japanese soldier scream while set on fire with flame thrower.
Thompson headshots were so satisfying in Zombies.
PPSh was the bee’s knee!!
Simpler times. When gore was getting good in video games. Same time as gears of war if I recall.
A lil grenade happy for my realism, great game tho. mohaa will always be the top ww2 title for me, it was the first to nail that Omaha beach scene.
Compare the menu theme of Cod3 with the menu theme of WAW… It’s like day and night how WW2 is portrayed.
Great game. Love Zombie mode. But if you want a fantastic WW2 game, try Hell Let Loose.
Historically accurate 😂😂😂
I love how they used the sniper scene from “Enemy at the Gates” in the game. This game took up way too much of my younger teenage years. Even the DLC maps were good.
I believe in Viktor Reznov supremacy!
Op hasn’t played “hell Let Loose” yet
” Now it’s their land , thier people , their blood ”
Reznov was a fucking awesome character
And you can play Cheese Cube Unlimited mod and Der Riese mod.
Medal of Honor: Underground is still my favourite WWII setting
i agree. i wish they’d remaster it but i’m afraid that they’ll fuck it up somehow by dubbing down on the violence or some shit.
I can still hear the main menu music. So nostalgic listening to it now.
THAT Russian mission with Reznov was amazing🔥
Running through a burning building and shooting the shit out of the Nazis
“Portrayal” of grenades get a 0/10 though …
Greatest hollywood ww2 portrayal maybe.
i like MOHAA more
Vendetta is my favourite mission in any cod game.
I could be wrong but I don’t think OP means specifically game play or actual realism, but that the story and clip art/videos was pretty brutal and honest about the way. The original cods weren’t so graphic when depicting the war with people literally being shown burned with flamethrower and shit.
Hell let loose is the greatest portrayal of ww2 imo.
OP Needs to play Hell Let Loose
Incredible game. Music, voice acting, gameplay(except Bullshit & Corkscrew, fuck that level lol), epic intro videos are all on point
Two words raise it above most all the others for me: Gary Oldman.
COD 2 Brah.
i love shooting pt boats
CoD WaW is my all time favourite CoD. A very, very, very, close second is Black Ops.
Much like others, this game took up WAY too much of my time as a teenager.
Hmm I’m more of a call of duty 2 person when it comes to old ww games.
Brothers in Arms: Hell’s highway. Simply beautiful
Great game. But a game like Brothers in Arms, Road to Hill 30 was a more realistic take on WW2. COD WaW is more like a Hollywood blockbuster movie, with great cinematic experiences.
Still wishing for a remaster on the MW2019 or MW2(022) engine
…original call of duty. I still remember the MG42s in that game rattling off.
The GOAT of all CODS
When I watched the “sequences” like Russians executing German POWs in Berlin in the subway or street corner with no mercy, that really added to the grittiness during in game actions.
One of the things that made world at war so good was that it was brutal. There was less of the Hollywood good guy hero stuff that you see in later World War II titles, it was just gritty and violent and dark. You never know when you might get ambushed in the middle of the jungle, or watch a tank drive right over someone or crawl around thousands of dead Russians in St. Petersburg. I mean the game even starts out in a Japanese prison. I hated CoD WWII because it just felt like watching a World War II propaganda movie. Handsome good ol’ boy fighting to go back to his ranch, a poindexter in glasses whose the smart one, a snarky guy from NY/NJ, it just felt so polished and fake. I want another WaW, even just a remaster. It was one of the few CoD games that made war feel terrible, not like a blockbuster movie.
Executing wounded Germans in Stalingrad baby. War crimes gang
I wouldn’t call it “Greatest Portrayal of WW2” by any means but its a long way from fucking holo sights on M1 Garand
Plus, custom zombies on PC….??? Biggest W ever.
Still my favourite Call of Duty. Really wish they’d remaster it for current gen consoles.
