Call Of Duty

[Excalibur]

Well the revolver for the general might just be something to make him unique. Though I don't know about him being on the front line right where the action is. The very first mission of action where we see him picking you off the ground, hostiles were shooting across the river. A simple sniper could have easily picked off the general. Now later on when the general arrived to personally kill Roach and Ghost, that's more of his own thing.

My real problem is that they don't follow up with a debriefing about why the Russian attacked, the extent of the damage and are there any Russians left in the US? Then about what is Shepard's angle in all this?

The Russians attacked because Makarov framed the United States for the massacre of the civilians in "No Russian".

But to what end?

you see green flares on all the monuments in whiskey hotel, which means the city is back in american control. what the russians were trying to accomplish by airdropping in that few troops....no idea. Its pretty much a pointless strike. And how did they just sneak in like that?

COD4's plot was pretty believable and well written. MW2...well.....wtf?

BTW, i love how people think the riot shields a great weapon. I just sidestep, even just slightly, and knife them.

I can understand the Russians cracking the ACS and jamming all satcom so that NORAD couldn't see the Russians coming, but how did they get such a large force pass I don't know...Europe? I mean to conserve fuel, they'd need to fly in a straight line all the way to the east coast, they'd need carrier groups for some of them. They were able to transport BTRs, helicopters, trucks. They must have captured one of the airports on the East coast and used that as a runway to land their planes, otherwise, it'd be impossible to even attempt the operation.

Now let's get back to how the Russians can impossibly get pass England without them noticing.

and back to what they were attempting to do......they can't take over the nited states, all they could do was cause as much damage as they could before their imminent defeat.

[Excalibur]

Well then I thought to myself maybe that was the whole point. The Russians would unofficially sanction an op of this size knowing full well that there's no point. They know that a force that size in the United States would only serve to simply piss the US off. All they would want is to just inflict as much hurt as possible. Essentially, Russia has turned into a mad dog and would blindly throw thousands of soldiers to their deaths for some petty revenge.

Yet another part of the plot that makes no sense.

I keep watching the credits trying to find the name HIDEO KOJIMA (a man known for writing game plots that are confusing and make no sense), but it hasn't happened yet.

seen one cheapass tactic in cod 4, the glitches that allow you to get under the map so noone can hit you. Kind of like cod 5 with the rock on makin you could jump inside....
