    World at War was the last COD to feature checkpoint spawning, which would send waves of enemies at you until you hit certain checkpoints. It added to the difficulty & often left players without ammo & stuck in death/spawn loops. It truly was the pinnacle of hard in COD campaigns.

      A few CODs that released after WAW do have it for a mission or two, even BO3 has it at one section(can be used to farm kills w/guns towards Personal Decorator achievement), but in the earlier games the feature was prevalent in the majority of missions & was the only way to progress. In COD’s after WAW, the feature was implemented but often times in a mission where the player has to complete another task to stop the spawning.

    I play the WaW campaign on Veteran pretty regularly. Best CoD. There are parts where it seems as if enemies spawn infinitely, but there's actually just a lot of them and you actually can kill them all and no more will spawn until you move up. For example, there is no infinite spawn on Burn 'Em Out, it's just that a lot of them respawn. In fact, if you're patient enough, you can kill all of the enemies near the first two guns on Heart of the Reich. It takes forever and you'll have to kill several hundred enemies, but it is possible to completely clear the area before moving up. It's even possible to totally clear every part on Ring of Steel, on Eviction, Downfall, Relentless, etcetera. There are two and only two parts of the entire campaign with infinite respawn: The right path on Blowtorch and Corkscrew before the overgrown tunnel and taking out the third gun on Heart of the Reich. You can actually hang back and totally clear the next area before taking out the last gun.
    I like to run through the missions in chronological order, rather than on the broken timeline that the missions are given in.

      Same thing here, I play it regularly. It's a challenging game on veteran but overtime you learn how to play and understand the pattern. Curiously, I have found that the Japs are to be fought from long distances while the German in close quarters. It's because they have different tactics and use different environments (in the jungle, you can be shot at from everywhere so you must thread slowly while in Europe, once you've broken the enemy's line of defense, you're fighting in conventional cities where it's pretty straightforward and the player has an advantage - IF you break the line of defense).

    Surviving a bonzai charge is actually really easy, to the point that the dominant strategy becomes to counter charge them and mash melee like a maniac. You have i-frames during the tackle, so it's a really good way to get your health back while waiting for the recharge, or in the case of Vampire, from the easy kills

I screamed out "OH NO FUCKING WAY I DID IT FIRST TRY!" while in a Discord with some friends. Genuinely tho, FUCK Blowtorch & Corkscrew, it was my least favorite mission when I played it as a kid on Recruit/Regular and it is still my least favorite mission as an adult on Veteran. I remember I cleared the last bunker, but there was ONE enemy on top that I didn't kill somehow, and I remember the motherfucker SNIPED me during the cutscene where you are helping the injured soldier onto the truck. And the last checkpoint I had was halfway through clearing out the bunker. Made me so fucking mad.

    Here's some tips to get through Call of Duty World At War in Veteran mode:
    1. If you ever take cover, look at the sky. You'll see enemy grenades flying at you and their trajectory. With this, you can anticipate the grenade blast zone and fling them back to the enemy with better accuracy.
    2. Always pay attention to your compass. Locate and pinpoint enemy positions safely from the cover before shooting them.
    3. Never get far from your allies. Although sucks at shooting, your allies provide an infinite meatshield you can safely cower behind from enemy bullets. Furthermore, they know how to react against enemy grenades.
    4. Stay away from the frontline. The enemy won't spam grenades at you if you're far enough to outrange them.
    5. Ever tried firing from the hip in close-quarter battle?

One of the achievements I remember was to get 3 kills with one sniper shot.. pain just pain but good pain, the sort that keeps you coming back to play it again 👌

He thought it was easy to beat before he tried it. Because I am pretty young he thought "there is no way he is this bad" but now he knows about the abusive amount of grenades. but it was still fun to beat. Also nice vid!

  • @_Scipio__Africanus_
    @_Scipio__Africanus_ Před 10 měsíci

    Ever since I did my veteran run years ago I could never play this game on any other difficulty tbh. I feel it really goes from your normal shooter to a fully immersive battlefield. 2 best tips for it are 1.) take it slow, like inch by inch for your ground. You'd be moving slow as hell in an actual warzone, do it here 2.) Be very mindful of your loadout. Carry a semi auto or lmg for distance, and a subgun for cqc, abandon bolt actions asap. The flamethrower missions change with sometimes the flamer being good, but bad for when the enemies are at mid range, really gotta just be ready to drop it when you need to. Theres prob some other stuff im missing but those really helped me out. Only ever really had a struggle on that hunting the sniper segment and that one portion in burn em out with the hole in the ceiling. Funny enough I did what you did trial and erroring with smokes and the flamethrower till I got it, And I only threw my controller once :D

    I was only a young kid in 2008 and this being my first COD ever I really didn't take up doing veteran runs until a couple of years ago. I think I did this one 3 years ago and I'm not planning on doing it ever again. The most annoying mission was definitely Blowtorch and Corkscrew as mentioned. At least on Heart Of The Reich you have a bunch of ways to tackle the enemy threat and that makes it more fun, but BaC is just...torture. And more torture. Definitely one of the harder games I've done, but my hardest game ever was Killzone 2 on the PS3 - extremely high difficulty, clown closets of enemies just like in WAW, the absolutely insane last level combined with the game's notorious input lag was one of the hardest things I've ever done in my life. I'm pretty sure that just the last part of the last mission took me 3 days to beat and that was with ALL OF THE TRICKS the guides could offer.
