It takes place over 100 years before the last 3 CoD games before it and fuck all has changed.
I thought of this when that infamous train sequence took place, it was like a whole minute of meaningless spectacle that could have fit in literally any other CoD game and adds fuck all to the story.
It's another example of CoD treating its players like idiots. THEY'LL GET BORED ITS BEEN 5 MINUTES SINCE THE LAST EXPLOSION. TRAIN GO BOOM!
But...ugh I can't hate this game as much as I may want because this game gets a lot right, it's like AW, it has all the pieces it just can't put them together due to the studio refusing to take a risk and do something more. The last mission especially rubbed me the wrong way because of how much fucking potential there was. It could have been one of the most disturbing and impactful moments in any CoD game and truly elevate this game from mediocre to good but no. Instead the character just says that he's seen some shit and the concentration camp you visit feels like a pg13 recreation of a real one which I can't believe I just wrote down but it's real. They imply a lot but don't show shit, when you arrive there I genuinely got goosebumps and thought this was gonna be it. But no it wasn't.
I liked the squad mechanics, they made the game quite easy but they also worked really well in the story. When one of your squadmates is either dead or missing you really feel their absence in gameplay since you can't get...say ammo or health packs as easily anymore. The execution was really barebones but I liked the idea.
Otherwise what is there to say? It's another Call Of Duty game, you shoot the nazis and they die, the story is mediocre but the characters are pretty alright, theres some great moments in between all the mediocrity and by the end you're left kinda meh on it.
It's not as bad of a game as some say but it's super mediocre. Just play WAW instead.
