Revisiting The Most BRUTAL Call of Duty (World at War Part 1)

- Here is part 1 of my Call of Duty World at War playthrough that I did on Twitch! Let me know if you enjoy this type of more laid back content and if you'd like to see more of it in the future. Definitely makes it much easier to chop up highlights than to get carried away with a full video.
Expect a part 2 & part 3 within the next week!

Can't wait until they had a "No Factions" setting to this game. Fighting against the Japanese was SUPER offensive!!!
What do you mean my grandpa always told me about my team and enemy team kinda disrespectful 🤦♂️
I remember the war stories of my grandfather's team fighting the enemy team.
You know what would be cool? If we got a Cod Game based entirely in Vietnam. Shame folks are too sensitive for that
I know right?! I always think of extra credits whenever people bring this up! 🤣
I tried finding the full playthrough on Twitch, which is where I assume you played it, but nothing was there, do you have the full playthrough anywhere? would like to see it unedited.
This game has probably one of the best mission cutscenes ever.
Any scene with Reznov being a sav slav.
Hello, you might want to answer the door, Modern warfare 2006 is at the door...
@@robertf.atrozskin3596 MW's cutscenes were pretty generic. WAW has better cutscenes just for the art style and creativity alone. Not to mention the incredibly haunting world war 2 footage.
@@velvetblueco2422 that's mostly true but I do like the tactical views of the vehicles n stuff
@@kwc0435 i feel that
The pure feel of victory of the German announcer is just glorious.
"VICTORY BELONGS TO GERMANY!"
pure extacy, took this sort of thing for granted as a kid playing it at the time, looking back your like, "damn, that shite was good~"
*Adolf screams in backround*
@@vincentmartineau2006 "vor uns liegt deutschland in uns marschiert deutschland und hinter uns kommt deutschland"
*nazi cheering in the background*
When teams and nations actually mattered
There’s not enough exclamation marks
The “Old Breed” line is based on a book titled “With the Old Breed.” It’s written by Eugene Sledge, a young marine at Okinawa and peleliu. The old breed refers to the older marines who had seen combat and tours previous to the major battles in the pacific.
And it was being applied to soldiers not even out of their twenties. Shows you something there.
@@jackmerrick7419 most combat troops are under 30. in ww2 almost everyone fighting was between 18 and 27. Other than some older aged NCOs and Officers
HBO THE PACIFIC - SLEDGE AND SNAFU
@@MrChickennugget360 Bro if you think that german Tiger tank Commanders were like 17 Years old , and in the Battle of the Bulge on the Ardenne It was like 5 Shermans to beat 1 Tiger.
And what about the Hitler Juvenile Units, the had 13/15 Years old and were armed with panzerfaust.
Don't forget that old in MidOrient , South Asia there were a lot of soldiers such like Mujaheddin that weren't so grown up.
They were littelally Just Kids.
@@jackmerrick7419 yeah Bro if you think about that someone ho was in his 40s was a probably a veteran of ww1 .
It's really a mindblowing THING , that the old vets saw the war changing ...
Remember the intergalactic war between My Team and the Enemy Team. Those were tough times…
Even Halo did better back in the day with Red vs Blue XD
No hyperbole. This is my favourite COD of all time. People used to look at me crazy for thinking this.
THERE ARE DOZINS OF US!
That's ridiculous, waw is awesome
On any given day, I'd choose this or the first Black Ops as my favorite CoD of all time.
@@castortroy1853 same honestly, black ops storylines have always been more interesting than MW just for how twisty and unique each one is. MW is just too straight forward although I still love them
I will always believe this game is the best of all time
A really cool thing in the second mission you can activate an Easter egg on the beach and it’ll give you a ray gun in a campaign mission it’s so sick
Yes! And the Death Cards that can unlock cheats like Paintball Gun bullets 🔫
Yeah but the ray gun sucks on veteran, it's only real advantage is that it can destroy the tanks at the end of the mission without artillery
Scarab gun vibes
@@Litterbugtaylor going to disagree on that. It kills the soldiers in one shot. You just have to ads more with it compared to how you use it in Zombies
@@TheShapeshifter yeah it kills in 1 shot, the issue is it's really fucking fiddly using a slow firing weapon on veteran, you need smgs and lmgs, shotguns and bolt actions just get flinched to the ceiling between shots
21:04 _"Follow Dimitri's example"_ _instantly shoots Reznov in the head_ I don't think that's the example he had in mind
Now he has a bullet in (his) mind
Lmao, when Sullivan saves your ass and casually shoots the samurai with the trench gun one-handed, doesn't even shoulder the stock, and handles the recoil like a champ.
Was it not a pistol in the original version?
@@daniel-kn3tq it bugged out. It’s supposed to be a nambu pistol.
This masterpiece of a game. Just remember playing co-op with my younger brother and doing a solo run.
I wish online co-op mode had mission briefings and had that sniper mission and plane one
Fun fact: the word "banzai" is also used when greeting the Japanese emperor, it translates to "ten-thousand years of life." So when you hear Japanese soldiers scream banzai, they're basically saying: "long live the emperor!"
The full saying is “Tenno heika banzai” for those curious
I like how they use the soundtrack in Little Resistance.
During the start where you’re on the landing craft - with your teammates looking at the planes and the shelling on the Island, - the music sounds like something you would hear in a Captain America film, with the trumpets and orchestral instruments.
Only when you’re on the island itself, with all the gruesome death, burning corpses and destruction, The music changes to a more grittier and heavy metal style to emphasise the brutality and violence in the Island.
What's also cool is that they use instruments used in American and Japanese music and mash them together,as a way to indicate conflict between the 2 nations.
@@ft5821 ye
Your streams literally cure my depression , 22 minutes at a time. Thank you Act Man . Love for the love.
I remember saving Ryan and then seeing him gunned down a second later.
I don't really care for remasters (unless you're dark souls) but I would LOVE a brutally intact remaster of this masterpiece game.
Yeah if there remastered version please don censor the content
I'd love to see a remake, but not altering anything (except for all the little mistakes with dates or other things that were out of place). Sort of like the last of us remake. Imagine that, and with fixes like Okinawa actually being a muddy wasteland and not ending at shuri, imagine the Pacific but with the atmosphere of HBO's The Pacific
“This would be hell to play on veteran”
Oh act man…
*it was.*
You will not survive 💀
@@sanlorenzo7896 my sanity definitely didn’t
I went through it twice.
World at war will always top my list of my favourite call of duty games.
The story was unrelentingly brutal definitely one thing I didn't realise as a kid was the multiple choice options you had to "spare" the nazi's but then your fellow Russians would kill them anyways I just slaughtered them instantly as i felt like that was the right thing to do... Now going back as an adult the morality of the choice is so grim, the zombies mode coming out of nowhere was such a welcome surprise. The Easter eggs where amazing too. (Ray gun on little resistance for example)
The multiplayer whilst basic was beautiful. Great maps, guns where decently balanced, basic perks, no ott killstreaks and even the dlc was good quality. Not just hammed in there for you to waste money on a fucking weapon charm or the same 5 animations to kill someone in warzone
Also, the collectables easy as piss to find.
Weapons were 'almost decently balanced'. I still lose sleep over that goddamn MP40 with stopping power rounds
"It would be hell to play on veteran with mouse+keyboard!"
Me: *1000-yard stare*
i've finished this twice on veteran and i'm considering a third run
How long did it take roughly ?
@@theshark2931 certain parts take longer than others, the grenades can keep you pinned down for a good amount of time. Sometimes its all about getting lucky and running for it. But the game is that good it's worth the frustration once you do make it through
@@cartmanofsp I completed a veteran playthrough years ago on pc, and I don't remember it too much so clearly I can't have found it that difficult. Much different story when cleared Veteran on Xbox. I can still hear the sound of grenades bouncing around me in the penultimate Russian mission, and how long it took me to blow up all 3 artillery emplacements. Actual suffering, but it was worth it to get all those achievements so all good
@@theshark2931 7 or 8 hours total
You mad man
21:06
Reznov: Comrades, follow Dimitri’s example.
Dimitri: *shoots Reznov in the head*
Wow act man this is a good edit. For cutting down an entire campaign into a single video this is very impressive. I’m excited to finish this video.
Just finished watching your re-review of the Campaign. Excellent job man!
Honestly the buildup in the first Soviet mission is almost artistic, the context to the first ingame view of the massacre of Stalingrad with a horrifying amount of enemy Bombers flying overhead and their sound and shaking from their engines (shaking your camera) is terrifying even for modern standards it really gives a feeling of hopelessness and despair and paints the German army not just brutal and powerful but also terrifying almost like they are not human but devils in human flesh, even with them slaughtering those clinging to life or potentially already dead, and even the German soldiers who wasnt shooting in the background seem like they are at another day of work almost looking unfazed to the horrors they are committing walking past it casually (their facial expressions show alot), and this whole comment is describing one moment probably only worth 5-10 seconds, honestly its just sad COD is afraid to present the reality instead painting war in a happy image like a movie (new COD) it truely is an insult to the veterans and those who witnessed these horrors with their own eyes and experienced it, they want their story to be told so no one will witness such horrors like they did, not glorifying war as some happy movie, especially with what has happened in Ukraine this holds to be more true, just this game alone holds alot more value and ability to educate on the reality of not just 'the war' but war itself whether its the question of morals, or the harsh reality war brings.
Like the Stuka sirens = Psychological warfare.
Guess you didn’t play cold wars campaign
@@therookie5714 When comparing World at War and Cold War, they are two completely different eras and conflicts for which they are based in, and somewhat linked as world at war characters such as Reznov would appear in Black ops Campaign (which is phenomenal in its own right), and Cold War is a continuation of the Black Ops story. But Black ops 1 certainly followed the same principles World at War followed in its ability to tell an amazing story realistically without sugarcoating, Cold war was a good successor in being true to its era of the Cold War and history, but the key defining difference between WW2 and the Cold War is the fact WW2 was a straight all out war directly in your face and no punches being held with mass slaughters that would be considered disturbing to most for which your own morals are questioned and that of your enemy, the Cold war is a 40+ year of political rivalry, espionage and smaller funded conflicts such as the Korean war, Vietnamese war etc. Cold war also had a good foundation to build up from Black Ops 1 and had alot of good material to draw from directly as there would be no doubt they would have to look back at Black ops 1 when making Cold War, unfortunately in the case of COD WW2 and Vanguard this ability to provide this style of storytelling went back to its inability to create a good story from scratch that is actually incapsulating and true to its era.
@@therookie5714 I like WAW more because of how good it represents WW2 but I like the cold war story more
3:29 anyone notice Roebuck holding that shotty like an absolute gangster
After watching your World at War review I was looking for the stream vod. Glad you're making a series out of this.
8:45 chat: "Japan sponsors the enemy team"
Holy shit I fucking died lmao
Your content/streams has helped me revitalize my love for this series! I have ended up replaying WAW (which has reinforced it’s spot as my favourite) and I played Blop’s 1 for the first time ever!
I’ve rarely been into the multiplayer, but the pathetic state that the campaigns have been in (excluding MW19 and Cold War, especially MW19 as it’s the only multiplayer I have ever cared for) has really let me drift away from the series as a whole, including the classics. You’ve helped lead me out of this video game depression caused by the extreme industrialization of my favourite art form. Thanks.
Can't wait for next parts, and I love to see u upload more cods you did in stream.
13:48 now imagine sitting there trying to beat it on veteran whilst all you can hear is, YOU ONLY WOUNDED HIM, YOH JUST GRAZED HIM,and then peeking your head out only to get shot into oblivion
FPS: Unlocked
Dog: Pet
Time to game
The intro cutscene at Vendetta is so good I get chills everytime
"I shoot enemy team, enemy team die. That is plan."
Sounds like a good plan. 👍
Even when it was a suprise attack, Sullivan's death was entirely avoidable.
After watching your review, I replayed the campaign and had the greatest time. Thanks, Act Man!
Call of Duty 2 (2005) was my favorite Call of Duty, but I recently replayed it, and while it is still an awesome game, World at War is probably my favorite Call of Duty.
Love videos like this, thanks Act Man!!!
Love you act man you’re the goat thanks for everything and playing world at war
I wish you had the unedited versions somewhere, would love to see more of these!
Keep up everything man! Don't trip abt me, you and your channel came to me when I was recovering with a broken arm+leg. . . Ive literally had an awesome dream you were just fcn playing Halo right in front of me, cause we were chillinnn 🙂 You da man, and Act Man, stay true and keep this up.
thank you. 🎬
The cutscenes are really awesome
Whoever composed the music for this game is a genius. The music just felt appropriate and put more emphasis on what was happening around you. Bless this game
Love this video!
love the WAW love lately!
YESSSSSSSSSS. I lost the opportunity to watch you in Twitch, thank you so much for uploading parts of your stream!.
I freakin loved this game. How I wish we got a remaster of this instead of Vanguard
Loved this game so much, I replayed it on every difficulty, including Veteran.
Damn, Relentless is still kicking my ass.
Baller and a true war experience, start to finish.
Love it, can’t wait for more Word at War!😍😍😍😍
no waaaaaayyyy....i was 9 or 10 when i completed this game..im now 21 .... bro omg nostalgia with the legend the Act Man TV!!!
Thanks Act Man for helping My Team defeat Enemy Team
16:30 that’s not a sniper, that’s a 14.5mm anti tank rifle, hence the gore
Legendary video!
Great as always. One thing I would recommend is giving Call of Duty 2 a visit as well.
No, no the "my team - enemy team" is just the new "press f to pay respect". It's never gets old.
Playing as the Germans at the start of the match when the announcer yells "Team Death match!" would have been topped off nicely with Rens evil laugh. Don't ask why, it just fits I'm my opinion lol
This video greatly evolve from "my team, enemy team" to "you just graze him"
3:29 Sullivan just point-blank headshot a man while one-handing a trench gun. I know it's a bug, but it's a good bug
I'm only just arriving to this video, and you mentioned right away that you hadn't played Call of Duty with PC controls before. After I experienced Black Ops 1 on PC, I felt a new sense of fun that I never felt before on the ol 360, so I can relate here! I recommend giving it a try Mr. Acting Male 👍
Don't know if you know this Act Man but in the snipping part in vendetta there's a small window to the left if I remember correctly where it'll make dodging bullets easier since you're a smaller target if you snipe from there
"Hold your ground! HOLD YOUR GROUND!" he yells as he runs in.
The USA soundtrack really pulls me in. The use of strings to accent the rock, adding tension to the ever pressing forward feeling, like at any moment the whole situation could flip on its head really makes you feel apart of the conflict.
I always thought it was funny when I played the game as a kid when at 4:34, the guy yells "We're stuck on the coral!" and then proceeds to have the back of his head blow out. To which, if you watch closely, Roebuck just STARES right into the guys cranium for a second.
Not casually I might add, like he sticks his face in there for good observation
I was so hoping this would be uploaded.
Could you put up the full stream without edits thank you man
we will be working on a stream archive channel eventually once we get Act Man TV more consistent with uploads
"Now it's up to me, and me alone, to lead these men, my brothers, safely through this campaign."
That line has stuck with me for years!
Ohh Thank you so much , I was searching the VOD from twitch and was sad I coudn't watch it, such a pleasure to see you play my favorite COD.
Do you plan to put BO1 and BO2 highlights since you streamed them too if I remember correctly?
I remember playing this when I was 8 years old, my favourite mission was black cats.
For almost a decade I believed this game to be underated af and from time to time I still play it. "Modern games aren't the same anymore" I thought but I was never sure if it's just me or the nostalgia - then I watched your videos and this gameplay about it and I have to say: Nope, it's just awesome, you make the same points I always made. Thanks for uploading your content, bro 🙏
Edit: Jesus Christ, I joined in saying the intro of "Vendetta" and then you did the same. I rarely start fangirling but that was amazing :D
Please do more of thisssss. Putting my voice in because i want more epic saucey shit like this
Glad someone else loves the gehewr 43 WAW reload animation. I thought that was too specific for anyone else to mention lmao
"They're falling back!"
"It matters not where they choose to die."
God damn, Reznov has the best quotes
Fun fact, the Japanese flags seen throughout hard landing and presumably any other mission that includes them can be burned with the flamethrower and it gets affected by the flamethrower and will look destroyed/burned. Cool little detail added in.
Please do part 2. Also cod4 is real good and you should do a playthrough of that too.
The music in that game was so good.
Can you do this after other reviews too it’s cool seeing you go through the game and give your thoughts on specific moments that you might not have touched on before
I am gonna enjoy watching this series
Love the content acting action manly male!!!!
The sniper part on vendetta, as blood boiling as it feels, brings out the best gamer in you. You eventually bring on the sweaty goblin and get him, and after your still in that mood where it feels like you could play through the rest of the game...
So, recently I finally beat world at war on veteran, and it was an absolute PAIN…The sniping with Reznov mission was the most difficult by far.
Completing World at War on Veteran is one of my greatest achievements as a gamer. The grenade spam is absolutely one of the most ridiculous things I’ve had to slog through but it’s worth it if you’ve exhausted its awesome campaign over the last decade waiting for another good WWII shooter. Aside from all the good writing and fun gameplay the score just sells the hell out of this game, while for the most part I think COD games have pretty great sound design WAW is just next level. That anxious metal that pumps throughout the campaign is one of the most underrated game soundtracks I’ve ever heard and is one of my favorite parts whenever I dust it off for a play through
I remember letting one of my younger cousins borrow this game till he finished the campaign he said that it was really good and scary at times and had asked me if he can have the game. I've never felt happier knowing that he could recognize art when he sees it. And yes i had let him keep it and he still talks about it to this day
Good to see
I never knew you had a quicktime event with the dogs, that shit got me by surprise
Wolrd at War story mode is excellent, never get tired of coming back to it.💪💯
I remember playing Vandetta on the hardest difficulty when I was 14-15 and took me literally 3 hours with that freaking sniper.
How many times did you just graze him?
This will forever be my favorite CoD
Bro, remember the infamous moment on Omaha beach when all of our soldiers experienced sea sickness, pure terror, smd most importantly... Explosive packet bursting
One thing on the music remember the Germans when they invaded Russia didn't just start a war the Nazis started a race war aswell pretty much exterminating Slavs as they pushed to Moscow. That's why you hear patriotic music for the Americans because of pearl harbor and seeking justice, while for the Russians when they push to Berlin the music is menacing and vengeful they had a right to be angry but they were brutal to the Germans making the civilian populations flee for their lives. WW2 was mass human extermination on an almost factory like scale.
growing up WaW was my favourite cod, spent so much time 1v1'ing w my brother
I wanna see him beat cod 2 on hard.
That last mission on the hill... good luck brother
Sometimes I like to turn the music volume all the way down so I can experience the soundscape of war with a greater sense of fidelity.
But God that soundtrack is a work of art
Miller health status at all times: 3,500 bullet holes, 746 went clean through, head completely cover in scratches and bruises, legs and arms completely broken yet somehow they still work, 11 broken ribs fractured jaw, internal bleeding, major brain damage, and broken femur
Game Logic: Nah he’s fine
I just now realized the line 'The old Breed" in the beginning of "Little Resistance" must be a nod towards a novel called "With the Old Breed", which was written about and by a vet on the invasion of Peleliu, which is also the island you're attacking in that mission
11:42 I would love to see an “Act Man’s Top 10 Call of Duty Scenes” video
Kiefer Southerland as the marine's voice is one of my favorite aspects of this game.
ah yes my favorite youtuber, the fact man tv.
I PLAYED THIS GAME WHEN I WAS 14! THIS WAS SUCH A VIBE!
Cool so I am not the only one that cranks up the music volume while playing the campaign. :)
15:30 as a German I can confirm we are resistant to bullet wounds so we can survive a few shots
COD went from the Axis teams, to My Team.
Still hurts me as a gamer, and as a history fan.
I just recently went back and beat the story again lol this is the greatest COD of all time
