Attention, defensive armament operator whose alias is 'Locke' on board this PBY-5 Catalina which we are presently occupying to rescue our comrades who are in need of rescuing. There are escort vessels from the Imperial Japanese Navy armed with torpedoes and a machine gun in the water, which are at this moment in time firing projectiles made out of lead at us in an attempt to neutralize this aircraft. I urge you to inmediately switch positions to the right side defensive armament of this flying machine and use it to eliminate said escort vessels that are currently firing at us.

Well, they took down two merchant ships, probably over 50 heavily armed p.t. boats, hundreds of zeros, defended against an intense bombardment on a u.s. fleet, and won alone, all while not taking a single mentionably large amount of damage, so... the titanic is an easy day for the ol' cat
@@thinkingboi9508 there’s a unique field variant of the PBY used by special U.S Navy units during WW2 that did actually have heavy armament (frontal 20mm, reinforced plating, etc) like the ones in WaW, and they were used for Naval Raiding like Convoy Interception or Forward Raiding. The Black Cats mission in WaW is based off these naval raids. The main inaccuracy is they didn’t strafe the Convoy ships like in WaW, and were usually loaded with Torpedos and Bombs instead with the heavy armament being for when said bombs and torpedos ran out, or to engage escorting fighters.
I think this is the only cod game to feature a multiplayer campaign, but after playing the game both in singleplayer and in coop, you can see that there are a lot of absent things in the coop version of the game, like the japanese banzai charges and sometimes the background would just dissapear, but anyway, I spent most part of my childhood playing in coop with my brother, but there really was some things that wouldn't work the way they wanted it to be if they were implemented to the coop version.
Nah man, a remaster would be dope. Don't change the artstyle, just give us higher poly models, more fluid animations, maybe survival mode, and we're good.
I don’t like remastered games, not that they can’t be good, but because it’s almost like they are purposefully made to be trash… I feel like WaW remastered would have shitty loot crates and stupid ass kill streaks and no controllable tanks
@@swank8385ikr? It seems like not enough ppl truly recognize how amazing and well done it was for its time. I can still vividly remember screaming at my tv screen as a kid, after watching Vic get mercilessly gunned down after just trying to open a door and take point. All the while feeling helpless and overwhelmed knowing that I truly couldn't do anything to change the outcome. It's that feeling that got me into cod in the first place (BR1 was also my first at 5 years old😁). And it also made me feel more respect for those who do/did serve for our countries. I don't think treyarch, or any of the other studios for that matter could ever hope to recreate that same feeling and experience that the older cods conveyed so well. Plus, even to this day they have good replay value to them.
Appreciating the Nostalgia while Activision fucks up again with Vanguard? Me too... I remember when this series was more than just a game they shit out yearly to meet a quota. This game told a story... a grim and horrifying story, but it did it well. Black Cats was a story all on its own, and it's fitting that its music should stand out as much as it does.
@@graysonleal3636 back then each COD game had a soul. Say Black Cats, I'd be damned if I didn't try to save as many sailors as I possibly could while shooting down Zeros and PT boats. Even though it was only a game, it was the right thing to do and I was 100% focused on the mission. New CODs don't have that kind of mission anymore but rather "let's just get this over with and milk $70 out of these 12-year-olds."
QUIT asking for remasters, that just makes the developers lazy and us look like utter idiots for paying again for something we have previously paid for. demand a BRAND NEW WHOLE GAME, not a goddamn remaster ffs, you make me sick

How many games can you say have a genuinely exciting and immersive TURRET SECTION? Not just that, but the TURRET SECTION is one of the most iconic and well-remembered missions of the WHOLE game?
The problem with average turret section in most games are they just stick with one turret throughout the entire journey Unlike Black Cats in WaW, you get to switch to different turrets, sides, front, and back, you get to see the inside of the plane, and after gets shot enough times you land on water and tried to save as many POWs as you can
@@MatsuSenpaii You also see other gunners in the process, making way for you as you switch from turret to turret or being just out of sight firing one of their own. Makes it feel even more like you are just one of many that won the war, rather than some action hero doing it by himself.
All the times I’ve played Black Cats, and I never knew the soundtrack was such a banger. High octane, intense, it has flair but was usually drowned out by .50 cals and 20 mms. World At war is bomb
It's in a way suppose to sound like your being bracketed and shot at by anti air guns like when it goes quiet as they go to turn away os the guns falling silent and then start up again as you fly past

Moving from gun to gun on this fortress was just amazing. I usually don't like aerial combat in games (because I get a headache) but this was awesome and badass.
I love how this game when it came out was talked down on for being "yet another WW2 shooter". Now we're flooded with modern shooters and future shooters and everyone looks back at this as a classic now. This was the last 'true' COD for me. still remember clapping cheeks with the BAR in multiplayer, and by far one of the best campaigns. No other game beats the OG zombies.
@kc korea it makes perfect sense. Modern warfare at the time was a more novel idea than a modern shooter is now. Everyone I knew loved it too. The game was more rather publicized in a bad light. When World at War came out, that was the beginning of the "oh, Another WW2 shooter," phase in gaming. Nowadays, WaW is considered a classic and in many ways still holds up to what COD puts out today.
I actually prefer it that way though. WaW being remembered as just another WW2 game. Because it means that this game is still the standard quality of games of the era. The fact that it became a classic now mean that the quality of games nowaday severely drop beyond dirt.
Probably one of the most immersive and chaotic mission simply by pure sound design. People screaming for help, zeroes roaring in the sky as they dive into ships around you, your own gun's fire, the pt boats around you firing as your crew screams at you to take them out, anti air guns around you firing on the zeroes, engine sound, alarm going off, thunder in the distance and intense music. I think one of the most important aspect of this mission is that you aren't in control, you are just a gunner of 2 plane. You don't fly the plane and as people around you die you can't even help them as you are too busy doing yourself and can barely even rescue the sailors. It makes you feel like you are fighting in a war instead of winning one. One of the best mission ever.
It was very well done indeed. Every time I replayed the mission I always tried to save as many sailor as possible, while fighting off the PT boats and Zeros. One of the most intense missions ever for me, fueled with adrenaline.
@@inspecthergadget4503 “adrenaline” is the perfect word to describe this mission! The music, the action, the visuals, and the pacing altogether make this one of the best and most memorable Call of Duty missions!
No game will ever come as close to representing the true grittiness and horror of World War 2 as this game did. Seriously one of the darkest mainstream non-horror games out there. Edit: a lot of people are comparing it with multiplayer games like Red Orchestra or Hell Let Loose, but that's not quite what I meant. I'm sure those games are fine, but I was talking moreso about the horrible things you do and see as part of the story in this game, like burning prisoners alive and executing unarmed soldiers, crawling out of a mass grave, being tortured etc. I don't know that multiplayer games are really offering that kind of first-hand historical dialogue.
@@fullmetalkriz1179 spec ops the line could also be argued in its mainstream status it's a game that if you were into game news you probably heard the negative press but otherwise nah
If Call of Duty had a German campaign I could imagine this being used in a dark and stormy U-Boat mission. The interior of the black cat seems as tight as a U-Boat, then you use the deck cannon to fire at PT boats and other convoy ships. Then move around to use the AA gun against planes whilst rescuing survivors of the RMS Laconia.
wowzers these germans sound so cool and heroic! I'd love a campaign where you liberate rightful german land from polish aggressors 😊😊😊 or join the heckin epic dirlewanger brigade
It gets you pumped but also sounds like bullets hitting the ship. WaW had some of the best SFX people with so many amazing subtlety. Much better than the 'Do you speak Japanese" "I shoot Nazis. They die." "I'm a gdman onion" stuff today
This mission was so intense, the Japanese were definitely the most brutal faction in the game and were more willing to fight than the Germans even if they knew they would die. I enjoyed the American campaign more just because I enjoy fighting the Japanese since they never quit and would fight you at close quarters, I wish there was more of them in the Call of Duty series but a lot of the times Germans are mentioned in the series.
I’d love one on the opposite sides, dealing with flamers and getting firebombed in the Pacific while gunning down bombers and an unstoppable horde in Rhein. This game felt like the best representation of how fucked up the us vs them train of thought made all sides monsters, what with feeling justified burning out bunkers then thinking Germans are cowards for trying to burn out a building you’re hiding in. This game is an actual masterpiece ngl
I love how in this soundtrack you can't really tell if the beats you're hearing is part of the music or bullets actually hitting your Catalina, which immerse you into the world even more while still giving the scene music to hype you up.

I didn't think anyone still remembered BR1! That, and all the tank parts in that game was the icing on the cake for me. Definitely the first thing I thought about when I played this as a kid!
@@ssww3 or maybe a cod ww2 with new perspective (French/Polish Resistance, Chinese, Scandinavian, African like cod 2, early stage of Barbarossa, Market Garden, etc). Honestly WW2 has so much potential, but it was done to death with those stereotypes and just straight up being crap like cod WW2
bo2 also had some really good songs i don't remember the names, but Menendeze's theme and the main menu are really great ones. Oh and also Savimbi's theme.
The first section is an absolute banger, but the moment 6:25 starts up, this becomes the best track out of a Call of Duty game EVER. Perfect mix of tension and despair for fighting to stay alive after your fellow soldiers and support are dead.
When you rescue the survivors when landed on the water. While the animation to pull them aboard plays, the PT boats can shoot you easily. It's the only moment where you can quickly die I think.
The PBY's have a sad end in Australia - the RAAF holds the only complete one in a museum, and it's piecemeal - made from components bought from or donated by collectors - the remaining fleet/squadron was decommissioned after the war, their hulls were used for lumber transport down the rivers and the rest was sold off or recycled. It's a shame, because they'd have made great fire-fighting aircrafts for us if we had kept them - which we desperately needed a few years ago.
I only had an issue with that as the PBY would probably have a gunner per gun instead of having two guys running around. But I get it for gameplay purposes.
@@andrewluster6142 in Vietnam they used to play spooky sounds on a loudspeaker on boat patrols to scare anyone in hiding, imagine being on sniper patrol and hearing the cries of what you think is your dead relatives...

@@Viviana088 where the hell do you get Pokémon in a video about you shooting planes ships with 50cal machine guns and killing hundreds of people with solid beats
First time I played this, and when those drums kicked in I legitimately thought it was flak hitting the belly of my plane. In the back of my mind wondering what would happen next, would it pierce the hull? Would it wound or kill my character? Outstanding sound design, extraordinarily immersive. Then some time later you get down in the water and it's not war, it's just absolute chaos. Trying to contend with those relentless kamikazes, those fucking PT Boats just absolutely slaughtering to shreds all our sailors who'd just barely managed to escape their sunk destroyers and battleships. As the player you save maybe a handful of them, and it's nowhere near enough. Their pleas and cries for help leaving you utterly haunted. To imagine this is only a shadow of what our grandfathers, great grandfathers really contended and lived with. There's no words to put it into.
@@anoriginalname410 i think it's supposed to mimic the alternating fire of the guns on both planes. as they train machine gunners typically (my great uncle was a ball turret gunner on a b-17 flying fortress) "I SHOULD BE HEARING A CONVERSATION NOT A MONOLOGUE", meaning you alternate fire to keep suppression.
Imagine in about 30 years, gaming becomes completely immersive and we literally get to be in the game via neural chip or vr room. Imagine playing through a remastered version of Cod Waw. Would not be surprised if some people came out traumatised or have mild ptsd. I on the other hand would love every second!
Replayed this game a month ago and I gotta say, this game had the best campaign soundtrack than any other Call of Duty Campaign. My two favorite songs out of this whole game was "Black Cats" and "Heart of the Reich".
PBYs were scouts early in the war- they located the Japanese Fleet at midway while some also attacked the Japanese supply column. Later in the War Navy B-24s with radar replaced PBYs as the main long range scouts, and PBYs switched to patrol bombing missions attacking Japanese supply columns. There has been some buzz lately about bringing amphibians back into the military since they don't require runways that will likely be destroyed in a war.
It feels like a lot of FPS games especially from this era had the “mandatory turret mission” but this mission beautifully turns that tired concept into an actual thrilling scene. And the music as definitely a big part of that. It hits so hard when the music swells for a bit and you shift your other gunner’s corpse before it kicks right back up when you take over his gun.

@kc korea it makes perfect sense. Modern warfare at the time was a more novel idea than a modern shooter is now. Everyone I knew loved it too. The game was more rather publicized in a bad light.
When World at War came out, that was the beginning of the "oh, Another WW2 shooter," phase in gaming. Nowadays, WaW is considered a classic and in many ways still holds up to what COD puts out today.
BO1 zombies is better cuz its not laughably buggy.
@@WastedPotentiaI1 objectively it is, but WaW has that feeling of nostalgia.
I actually prefer it that way though.
WaW being remembered as just another WW2 game. Because it means that this game is still the standard quality of games of the era.
The fact that it became a classic now mean that the quality of games nowaday severely drop beyond dirt.
@@Heylanda-fb9xbUnrecord: I doubt
Probably one of the most immersive and chaotic mission simply by pure sound design. People screaming for help, zeroes roaring in the sky as they dive into ships around you, your own gun's fire, the pt boats around you firing as your crew screams at you to take them out, anti air guns around you firing on the zeroes, engine sound, alarm going off, thunder in the distance and intense music.
I think one of the most important aspect of this mission is that you aren't in control, you are just a gunner of 2 plane. You don't fly the plane and as people around you die you can't even help them as you are too busy doing yourself and can barely even rescue the sailors. It makes you feel like you are fighting in a war instead of winning one.
One of the best mission ever.
It was very well done indeed. Every time I replayed the mission I always tried to save as many sailor as possible, while fighting off the PT boats and Zeros.
One of the most intense missions ever for me, fueled with adrenaline.
@@inspecthergadget4503 “adrenaline” is the perfect word to describe this mission! The music, the action, the visuals, and the pacing altogether make this one of the best and most memorable Call of Duty missions!
Every time I play this mission I just feel so overwhelmed. No game or mission has ever made me feel that way
the sound when planes hit the ships and explode is just haunting
Bro I just played this mission and I could feel myself breathing in so deeply and feeling like I would literally die.
No game will ever come as close to representing the true grittiness and horror of World War 2 as this game did. Seriously one of the darkest mainstream non-horror games out there.
Edit: a lot of people are comparing it with multiplayer games like Red Orchestra or Hell Let Loose, but that's not quite what I meant. I'm sure those games are fine, but I was talking moreso about the horrible things you do and see as part of the story in this game, like burning prisoners alive and executing unarmed soldiers, crawling out of a mass grave, being tortured etc. I don't know that multiplayer games are really offering that kind of first-hand historical dialogue.
Right, especially the American campaign where we were always in a worry that something will happen and was so stressful

If Call of Duty had a German campaign I could imagine this being used in a dark and stormy U-Boat mission. The interior of the black cat seems as tight as a U-Boat, then you use the deck cannon to fire at PT boats and other convoy ships. Then move around to use the AA gun against planes whilst rescuing survivors of the RMS Laconia.

This mission was so intense, the Japanese were definitely the most brutal faction in the game and were more willing to fight than the Germans even if they knew they would die. I enjoyed the American campaign more just because I enjoy fighting the Japanese since they never quit and would fight you at close quarters, I wish there was more of them in the Call of Duty series but a lot of the times Germans are mentioned in the series.
They're so brutal they kept fighting afterwards.

I’d love one on the opposite sides, dealing with flamers and getting firebombed in the Pacific while gunning down bombers and an unstoppable horde in Rhein.

The PBY's have a sad end in Australia - the RAAF holds the only complete one in a museum, and it's piecemeal - made from components bought from or donated by collectors - the remaining fleet/squadron was decommissioned after the war, their hulls were used for lumber transport down the rivers and the rest was sold off or recycled.
It's a shame, because they'd have made great fire-fighting aircrafts for us if we had kept them - which we desperately needed a few years ago.

I always appreciated the little animations of Locke running back and fourth between the mounted guns
that scene was mocapped and used a replica interior frame of a Catalina
And the other crews lean in to make way for him
I only had an issue with that as the PBY would probably have a gunner per gun instead of having two guys running around. But I get it for gameplay purposes.
Let's be honest here, the drum part slapped and always will.

Pilot whispers to the gunners:
Remember No Japanese
10:22 I like how it slows as you’re on the water
Slow to .75 speed
First time I played this, and when those drums kicked in I legitimately thought it was flak hitting the belly of my plane. In the back of my mind wondering what would happen next, would it pierce the hull? Would it wound or kill my character? Outstanding sound design, extraordinarily immersive. Then some time later you get down in the water and it's not war, it's just absolute chaos. Trying to contend with those relentless kamikazes, those fucking PT Boats just absolutely slaughtering to shreds all our sailors who'd just barely managed to escape their sunk destroyers and battleships. As the player you save maybe a handful of them, and it's nowhere near enough. Their pleas and cries for help leaving you utterly haunted.
To imagine this is only a shadow of what our grandfathers, great grandfathers really contended and lived with. There's no words to put it into.

Replayed this game a month ago and I gotta say, this game had the best campaign soundtrack than any other Call of Duty Campaign. My two favorite songs out of this whole game was "Black Cats" and "Heart of the Reich".

Blood and iron is also very good
When the song sync with the heavy machine sounds
Perfection 😘 👌
Last five minutes are the best. That military-style drumming combined with the techno kills me.
Imagine being a Gunner on a PBY.
“TAKE OUT THOSE FUCKING PT BOATS!”
“KAMIKAZE! 12 O’ CLOCK!”
PBYs were scouts early in the war- they located the Japanese Fleet at midway while some also attacked the Japanese supply column.
Later in the War Navy B-24s with radar replaced PBYs as the main long range scouts, and PBYs switched to patrol bombing missions attacking Japanese supply columns.
There has been some buzz lately about bringing amphibians back into the military since they don't require runways that will likely be destroyed in a war.
Seeing those Corsairs fly in at the last second and save us will never not give me goosebumps, such beautiful aircrafts

@@noname-bx6lv It shows the madness and cruelty of war but also the badassery of being in there, those times were literally hell on Earth
It feels like a lot of FPS games especially from this era had the “mandatory turret mission” but this mission beautifully turns that tired concept into an actual thrilling scene. And the music as definitely a big part of that. It hits so hard when the music swells for a bit and you shift your other gunner’s corpse before it kicks right back up when you take over his gun.
