@@tatianaayala-delamatta5124 I'm just not as huge a fan of Black Ops 2 as I am the first. In terms of campaign anyways. Thanks for checking out regardless!
@@Drexxylhonestly you putting MWIII under Vanguard and BO3 is what made me leave a dislike for all the faults MWIII has its a way better storybwith better characters than Vanguard or BO3
@@ELIZABETHMARLONE2005 It's the open world Warzone missions that killed it for me, at least Vanguard was still linear. Black Ops 3 also has a pretty good story, it's just very hard to understand your first time through.
I dont get the hate for ghosts. At least there are a few great missions like the antarctica level that you can go back and replay. Vanguard and BO3 are just boring frim start to finish and WW2 literally just has the french spy mission. Also inifnite warfare is a top 5 campaign. Fight me.
I also love infinite warfare, but as I said it's the fact it doesn't feel like call of duty to me, and that the story takes place in a single day which I can't get over, haha.
Bo3 is runner campaign to play cuz of gameplay and being able to pick and customize classes and guns but ghost story way better and has a few missions that are memorable so it’s close for me but I’d have ghost over bo3 slightly because story is the biggest part of campaign and it’s quality
Pretty decent ranking. I disagree with some placements, but pretty respectable. There are some factual errors though. - Cold War (2020) didn't use the new engine introduced with MW 2019. Every game after Cold War does run on the MW 2019 engine (IW 8.0) or an updated version of it. - Hans Zimmer did not write the OST for MW2 (2009) Lorne Balfe did. Hans Zimmmer only did the main theme.
Yeah it's why I played the main theme instead of something like Boneyard. I should have mentioned Lorne Balfe though. Also I think I said that Cold War was on it's own engine created just for that game, not the IW engine. I think it uses a modified black ops 4 engine, but I'd have to double check.
@@Drexxyl it's not wrong *technicaly* to say it runs on it's own engine, but it's kinda a moot point. Nearly every cod uses "it's own engine" but they all derive from the previous (from that developers) games engine, they just update it. IW 8.0 (MW 2019) was a completely new engine built from the ground up. Instead of just being Id tech 3 on increasingly more crack.

I really enjoyed Modern Warfare 2's campaign. Black Ops 1 I've sadly enjoyed less and less with each playthrough. The plot twist carries the story for me and experiencing it multiple times at this point it kinda loses it's oomph a little bit every subsequent playthrough.
To everyone who hated infinite warfare by that i mean just seeing the trailer and no even playing it are the same people who absolutely love vanguard and mw3'23

I agree with the whole one-day war of Infinite Warfare being ridiculous, but other than that I have very few nitpicks for that campaign. It's easily my favorite and my most replayed, which is crazy considering I only started playing it this year. I get that it's not everyone's cup of tea and it's a massive shame that it never got a sequel and became its own series, but at least it was awesome and told a complete story with no cliffhanger ending.
Ethan is also one of the best characters in the franchise, but that 1 day thing is just so hard for me to overlook now that I know it, lol. I still think it has an amazing campaign, it's just not a good call of duty game and should've been like a spin off franchise where it could've gotten more deserved sequels.
@@Drexxyl The wiki actually says it lasts three days, which kind of makes sense since the first mission took place "18 hours ago" apparently, and maybe the rest of the campaign lasts a full 24 hours or so which takes it into the next day? Either way, I'd prefer if it lasted at least a week or something. But it's a minor issue for me, the gameplay is great and the characters are excellent. My other nitpick is that I would have liked to provide some close air support in the Jackal, blowing up more stuff on the ground instead of endlessly shooting down enemy fighters and blowing up their capital ships, but oh well.
I see black ops 3 campaign as treyarch trying to make singleplayer a mode that creates a community to understand the full story just like the zombies community when they discover new Easter eggs. The story is kinda dope at least it's not the typical story you expect from a Call of Duty. I really think it's underrated. Also, I don't understand people that say they didn't understand anything. I mean, yeah it's difficult to understand the full story but even without that if you just see the events you are watching, you are basically killing rogue allies because of an DNI infection because of a dark project of the Cia. Add more lore of the 2065 (which also can be expanded if you use the data vault) and then you just have to read the intro logs. With that it's easy to understand the full story.
Yeah, I also liked how the first letter of each chapter reveals a spoiler, kinda like Dead Space. The story is really good and interesting to me, but it did take me 2 playthroughs and some research to fully understand everything.
I agree with just about everything but my list would look a little more like this: 20. BO4 19. MWIII 18. Vanguard 17. COD 1 16. COD 2 15. COD 3 14. BO3 13. Ghosts 12. AW 11. COD WW2 10. MW1 9.

Very respectable list, your bottom 3 are perfect where they are, lol. And Black Ops 1 is a damn good choice for number 1, I just feel less and less enthused with each playthrough cuz part of the magic of that game, is definitely not knowing the twist.
@@Drexxyl Thank you - but yeaahh, I personally just have BO1 as my number 1 mostly due to nostalgia bias. WaW may have been my first campaign and I still really really love it, especially the "Black Cats" mission, but BO1 is what really hooked me into the series and BO2 IMO is just the perfect sequel.
About the original cod and its expansion pack, the American campaign is heavily based off, or you could say copy-and-pasted, from the mini series Band of Brothers which is a fantastic series along with The Pacific series, And both can be watched on Netflix right now.
Just beat COD MW2 for the first time since I beat it in 2009 when I was 19 lol I was surprised to see how well it held up and that It was what I consider an S Teir campaign with very memorable set pieces… now I’m going back and playing all the COD campains I missed since I stoped buying them in 2012.
Great vid man, my personal 3 favorite call of duty games are, BO2, COD 4: MW, and Advanced Warfare, I have so many memories with those games and still play em wit my home boys to this day. But great list man, deserves more views, but you earned a subcriber in the process.
I only play the Campaign, never touch the Multiplayer, too much grind, too much wasted time I could be enjoying many of my other games. I love the Bombastic B-Movie early 2010s and the more polished ones from recent years. But for this reason I only buy the games when they go on sale with at least 60% off. If I'm only playing a third of the game I'm only willing to pay a third the price.
I also love Riley, but he just feels like a gimmick selling point more than anything. Definitely the most memorable character of that campaign though, lol.
I love Black Ops 1, but I don't hold it as high as I used to. What makes that game's story great is it's twist, which loses it's luster every time I replay it.
@@DrexxylVanguard is literally the worst call of duty game ever like it has the worst campaign awful multiplayer and the worst zombies i cant even believe you didnt put it right after bo4
@@Drexxyl Yes that I can agree with, as a huge historical fan I don’t understand wtf that game is on and it’s just trying to rewrite history. And I quote from the game The victory at el Alamain wasn’t because of British commanders or tanks, ……… So I guess the 2nd battle of el Alamain being the biggest tank battle of the North African campaign and of course the high command were just brushed over. Pathetic.
I’ll have to disagree with putting the two rebooted Modern Warfares, so high. Their was never any stakes in those games, they had the same plot 3 times with missiles. I think people get hung up on visuals and don’t see they’re badly written.
I just really enjoyed the characters, missions and gameplay. MW3 2023 is where they shit the bed in my opinion. And these games (besides Black Ops) have never been about amazing writing or anything.
BLOPS 1 used to be higher for me but the twist about the numbers carries it hard and kinda loses it's luster in subsequent playthroughs for me. I'm also genuinely surprised on how well Ghosts is liked apparently as a lot of my comments say it's much too low.
Ghosts’ campaign is awesome! It’s not the very best but it is the upper end of the middle. BO3 sucked so badly it’s hard for me to have any campaign below it. Even something as underwhelming as Vanguard.
For a first playthrough, or if you just don't like futuristic COD it is very hard to get into. But once you understand the story it kinda grows on you. Ghost's character's were just boring to me, and no amount of Riley could save it.
No problem with that, it's a fast paced roller coaster for sure. I just feel it goes WAY TOO FAST, honestly it felt like they crammed 2 games into one, that's my only real complaint.
Replys on @not a cat3 this is his teir list is rank I do not agree that bo2 was under cw but it is his ranking so shut up and if you want to kick on some one kick on your friends or someone you do not like
I'll take a campaign with actual levels over the Warzone mission filled one any day of the week. And the fact they butchered Makarov, Shepard and *SPOILER* Soaps death.
MWIII didnt deserve to be 19 that should have been bo3 and Vanguard mwiii isnt great but its better than those two and id say it should have been around 15 . Im honestly tired of the overblown hate that hame gets its far from perfect but its overblown also ghosts for what its worth dodnt deserve to be below vanguard and bo3 that game is still way better than those two
@@sethhauck1283sledgehammer had like 16 months to make the game let alone focus on campaign they just keep getting fucked over by Activision and it shows with this game and the 8 months they had to make vanguard
You’d appreciate Cold War more if you’d know they made a well written campaign and it was done 90% all on Zoom call. Performances were all captured through the actors at home in their bathrooms 😂. It’s actually crazy TreyArch manages to make a better game than Sledge and Infinity Ward.
@Drexxyl it had no plot, terrible optimization, it had absolutely no balls, it was half cutscenes, the betrayl was terrible, they fucked up both of the 2 best villains, there were no memorable locations. Overall garbage
ghosts does NOT deserve to be at 18 it was one of the best if not the best campaigns imo it definitely should not be below vanguard and it is criminal it is im not gonna lie
A lot of people seem to enjoy Ghost but I just found the story and characters boring. Vanguard, while having absolutely awful characters, has some fun gameplay mechanics and while the whole "A-Team" concept didn't pan out the way they intended, it was still an interesting take on the campaign.
@@Drexxyli’m ngl i’ve heard POSSIBLE rumors about a ghosts 2 sometime between ‘26-‘28 but obviously not confirmed would be dope and as far and AW i would love a sequel as well i just don’t know if cod will go back to the future even tho i personally loved exo suits i thought it was a fun twist and it made the MP gameplay a lot more enjoyable for me because their was so much more you could do
I know this is “opinion based” but if there was ever a case of opinions being completely wrong. This video has to be it! Congrats on telling me I should not take you or your videos seriously as a 1st time viewer 👍🏼
It is and I know it's the reason we even have COD today, but we have so many banger COD campaigns now it's hard to put it so high up without being blinded by nostalgia.
That's crazy talk, lol. It's a good campaign, I just feel like it's not COD and the fact the game takes place in 1 day just takes me out of it even more.
One off the better lists I’ve seen. Don’t agree with it all but I see a lot off bandwagon mindset in the comments. How dare you not put Bo3 in last cuz Bo3 bad 😡😡 Bo2 greatest cod ever how dare you put it in number 9 😡 Bo2 is unlucky that it came out after the likes off the Mw trilogy and Bo1 which are all better campaign wise
Which parts do you disagree with personally? Black Ops 1 and 2 not being higher? Over the years they've kinda slipped down the ranks for me as the twist is it's best storytelling moment and after experiencing it more than 10 times it just doesn't hit as hard anymore.
@@BratVaxer BO1 used to be in the top 3, but the campaign loses it's luster once you know what the numbers mean and I was never as big a fan of Woods as everyone else is. Ghosts to me has some of the least likeable characters in the series, they're vanilla, white bread, very boring which is why despite the confusing nature of BO3 it still goes higher up for me. Do you mean OG MW2 or the remake? Either way I think both are better than BO2. What's your personal top 5?
I HATE Mw2 2022 Campaign. The levels are fun but the story is painfully bad. I hate the "twists". I hate the new characters. I hate the boss fight with graves in a tank. I hate the last level slowing down to a snail with the survival crafting gimic to kill the main bad guy. It also has NO stakes. Nothing happens. No one dies. Innocent people are not caught in the way. That campaign is not for me at all.
I still really enjoyed it oddly enough and I definitely feel like I'm in the minority there. I think everyone can collectively agree on MW3 2023 being the absolute worst though.
@@Drexxyl I don't think any less of your opinions on cod just cause we disagree. I too only play cod for the campaigns. This list was solid. Common ground on the new mw3 campaign being bad is good enough for me.
BO3 must be in top-10, this campaign is really "Brain Go Boom", no one can't waiting that from CoD. But man... MWII and MW19 better than BO1/BO2? You joking? MWII better, than III, but this is still boring campaign, where nothing matter didn't happening. Even Ghost better.
I'm a huge defender of the first 2 remakes of Modern Warfare, and Cold War despite it's short length and kinda bad ending, it's setting elevates it high for me. Bo1 has fallen down the ranks as time goes on as I feel the twist carries a lot of that game and once you experience it again and again and again it just doesn't hold the same weight for me anymore.
@@bradymcglone2283 I just wasn't a fan of the characters or setting. All very bland in my opinion. At least Vanguard had it's weird alternate WW2 setting going for it. And Black Ops 3 has a pretty good campaign if you can understand the complexity of it. What are your personal top 3?
I've been getting that opinion in almost every comment now, lol. I used to feel the same but I've just really enjoyed the first 2 rebooted Modern Warfare campaigns a lot and I still feel the original Modern Warfare trilogy (barring a few missteps in 3) is goated.
@@Drexxyl I disagree. I mean I know technically it's not it's own game, but it's definitely it's own campaing and I would say it's miles ahead from origal call of duty. Yes there isn't like plenty of new features it's still product of the time, the first call of duty but maybe it's nostalgia talking but even CoD2 was downgrade in certain aspects to CoD UO.
I just find the characters pretty generic and boring honestly, and the setting does nothing for me. Black Ops 3 is an acquired taste I'll give you that.
That 80's aesthetic really spoke to me man, lol. While I understand how important Bo2 is it's just not as good as a campaign to me personally as it used to be.
Ghosts just had a very boring cast of characters and setting for me, and I love the 80s aesthetic in Cold War over BO2's future setting. I know many fans would probably put BO1 and 2 at the very top, but I don't hold them in the same regard. Still great games though! What are your personal top 3?
MW 2019 is one of the best COD's we've had in years, not even just the campaign but the whole package. Game brought back COD from the brink of collapse. It did however introduce Warzone which I feel has taken over the Campaign now sadly.
@@blaketerry3778 Well COD 1 and 2 are classics and Vanguard at least looks nice sometimes. Ghosts to me is just, I don't know it's very bland. Nothing really stands out for me besides Riley, and I consider them just a marketing gimmick.
I'm honestly very surprised how many people like Ghost as it's widely considered one of the worst in the franchise. Thanks for checking out the video regardless and leaving a comment, regardless if we agree or not it means a lot to me.
I would rank COD 3 above COD 2. The character development between Guzzo and Dixon is amazing. Guzzo goes from the naive/arrogant radioman to this battle hardened, tough soldier while Dixon is always the level headed squad leader where after he dies, he shows that he really did care for Guzzo. The amount of hate that COD 3 gets is criminal.
No way ghost is worst than bo3

I only play the Campaign, never touch the Multiplayer, too much grind, too much wasted time I could be enjoying many of my other games.
I love the Bombastic B-Movie early 2010s and the more polished ones from recent years.
But for this reason I only buy the games when they go on sale with at least 60% off. If I'm only playing a third of the game I'm only willing to pay a third the price.
Well it's good COD is coming to GamePass from now on, so each game is only 15 bucks or so if you only wanna play the campaign like myself.
What about the United offensive expansion pack for the original call of duty?
I completely forgot about it honestly, would probably still attach it to the original COD but maybe bump it up a rank.
Leave the dog alone I love him
I also love Riley, but he just feels like a gimmick selling point more than anything. Definitely the most memorable character of that campaign though, lol.
BO1 at 5??? That campaign could be a movie,and WaW has better campaign than mw2 reboot,mw2019 and mw3 OG. This list should've been a layup
I love Black Ops 1, but I don't hold it as high as I used to. What makes that game's story great is it's twist, which loses it's luster every time I replay it.
Cod 3 is my second favorite game in the franchise
Classic, even if it has a slightly rushed development. What's your other 2 in the top 3?
Man, you really fucked up with putting a vanguard above ghost
I just like the WW2 setting in Cod more than the semi future 2025 one of Ghosts. And the ending never getting resolved hurts it too.
@@DrexxylVanguard is literally the worst call of duty game ever like it has the worst campaign awful multiplayer and the worst zombies i cant even believe you didnt put it right after bo4
@@Drexxyl
Vanguard isn’t set in WW2
Alternate history WW22 then?@@SuddenStrike_HQ
@@Drexxyl
Yes that I can agree with, as a huge historical fan I don’t understand wtf that game is on and it’s just trying to rewrite history.
And I quote from the game
The victory at el Alamain wasn’t because of British commanders or tanks, ………
So I guess the 2nd battle of el Alamain being the biggest tank battle of the North African campaign and of course the high command were just brushed over. Pathetic.
Can't express enough how much i rate you including cod 1-3. Grown so sick of campagin ranked lists thst exclude them for the most arbitrary reasons
Some of them are better than even COD campaign's today, lol. Gotta respect the goats.
I’ll have to disagree with putting the two rebooted Modern Warfares, so high. Their was never any stakes in those games, they had the same plot 3 times with missiles. I think people get hung up on visuals and don’t see they’re badly written.
I just really enjoyed the characters, missions and gameplay. MW3 2023 is where they shit the bed in my opinion. And these games (besides Black Ops) have never been about amazing writing or anything.
Great video, but i think black ops is #1 but thats my opinion ofc, also i think ghosts and bo2 should be higher
BLOPS 1 used to be higher for me but the twist about the numbers carries it hard and kinda loses it's luster in subsequent playthroughs for me. I'm also genuinely surprised on how well Ghosts is liked apparently as a lot of my comments say it's much too low.
COD Cold war is so underrated so much fun
Ghosts’ campaign is awesome! It’s not the very best but it is the upper end of the middle.
BO3 sucked so badly it’s hard for me to have any campaign below it. Even something as underwhelming as Vanguard.
For a first playthrough, or if you just don't like futuristic COD it is very hard to get into. But once you understand the story it kinda grows on you. Ghost's character's were just boring to me, and no amount of Riley could save it.
BO3 VERY better, than MW-reboot and Gagnuard
CoD from 2003 is still the GOAT.
Crazy how well that game still holds up today.
Great list. I've always preferred og mw3 campaign a bit more than mw2.
No problem with that, it's a fast paced roller coaster for sure. I just feel it goes WAY TOO FAST, honestly it felt like they crammed 2 games into one, that's my only real complaint.
Replys on @not a cat3 this is his teir list is rank I do not agree that bo2 was under cw but it is his ranking so shut up and if you want to kick on some one kick on your friends or someone you do not like
Ain't no way he put mw3 below vanguard
I'll take a campaign with actual levels over the Warzone mission filled one any day of the week. And the fact they butchered Makarov, Shepard and *SPOILER* Soaps death.
MWIII didnt deserve to be 19 that should have been bo3 and Vanguard mwiii isnt great but its better than those two and id say it should have been around 15 .
Im honestly tired of the overblown hate that hame gets its far from perfect but its overblown also ghosts for what its worth dodnt deserve to be below vanguard and bo3 that game is still way better than those two
I actually didn’t hate it, but I did feel like they rushed the plot and lacked vision on the story.
@@sethhauck1283sledgehammer had like 16 months to make the game let alone focus on campaign they just keep getting fucked over by Activision and it shows with this game and the 8 months they had to make vanguard
You’d appreciate Cold War more if you’d know they made a well written campaign and it was done 90% all on Zoom call. Performances were all captured through the actors at home in their bathrooms 😂. It’s actually crazy TreyArch manages to make a better game than Sledge and Infinity Ward.
Damn really? I think I put Cold War quite high honestly, lol.
I could not get into the future war stuff with mech suits and all that.
BO1, BO2, WAW, MW2, cod 4 in that order
Pretty good top 5, that generation of COD is tough to beat.
Did big red 1 weigh in to cod 2s placement?
Not really, but even if I included it I don't know if I'd move COD 2 up anymore.
mw2 2022 was a terrible campaign otherwise i mostly agree tho
Really? I thought it was pretty damn good, MW3 (2023) on the other hand... Now THAT is a bad game.
@Drexxyl it had no plot, terrible optimization, it had absolutely no balls, it was half cutscenes, the betrayl was terrible, they fucked up both of the 2 best villains, there were no memorable locations.
Overall garbage
@@IdleEdits They screwed up the villains in 3 not 2 though? Shepard and Makarov were absolutely wasted in MW3.
@@Drexxyl tell me, was Shepard a great villain in mw2?
@@IdleEdits He wasn't even really revealed as a villain until the the tail end though?
MWII 2022 campaign was the first CoD that I didn’t even bother finishing. I would say MWII the worst follow by BO3 (skipped Van)
Really? What turned you away from it, I was surprised how much I actually ended up enjoying it.
ghosts does NOT deserve to be at 18 it was one of the best if not the best campaigns imo it definitely should not be below vanguard and it is criminal it is im not gonna lie
A lot of people seem to enjoy Ghost but I just found the story and characters boring. Vanguard, while having absolutely awful characters, has some fun gameplay mechanics and while the whole "A-Team" concept didn't pan out the way they intended, it was still an interesting take on the campaign.
@@Drexxyli’m ngl i’ve heard POSSIBLE rumors about a ghosts 2 sometime
between ‘26-‘28 but obviously not confirmed would be dope and as far and AW i would love a sequel as well i just don’t know if cod will go back to the future even tho i personally loved exo suits i thought it was a fun twist and it made the MP gameplay a lot more enjoyable for me because their was so much more you could do
1*
I know this is “opinion based” but if there was ever a case of opinions being completely wrong. This video has to be it! Congrats on telling me I should not take you or your videos seriously as a 1st time viewer 👍🏼
Which games do you disagree with? I know a lot of fans put BO1 and 2 at or near the top, but besides that I think it's a good list.
Cold war's getting a lot of hate on this.Comment section.That game was freaking awesome
OG cod campaign is a classic man 15 is way too low
It is and I know it's the reason we even have COD today, but we have so many banger COD campaigns now it's hard to put it so high up without being blinded by nostalgia.
Amazing video although I don’t agree with mw2019 and mw2022 being that high great video though
Iw at 13 is criminal no lie. Campaign was better than all 3 modern warfares
That's crazy talk, lol. It's a good campaign, I just feel like it's not COD and the fact the game takes place in 1 day just takes me out of it even more.
@ the 1 day thing is kind of insane I cant lie but I honestly believe Iw is the best of the future cods. I do agree that it being cod did hold it back
One off the better lists I’ve seen.
Don’t agree with it all but I see a lot off bandwagon mindset in the comments.
How dare you not put Bo3 in last cuz Bo3 bad 😡😡
Bo2 greatest cod ever how dare you put it in number 9 😡
Bo2 is unlucky that it came out after the likes off the Mw trilogy and Bo1 which are all better campaign wise
NEVER NEVER LET THIS MAN RATE AGAIN
Which parts do you disagree with personally? Black Ops 1 and 2 not being higher?
Over the years they've kinda slipped down the ranks for me as the twist is it's best storytelling moment and after experiencing it more than 10 times it just doesn't hit as hard anymore.
Definitely
Ghosts being lower than BO3 and vanguard
MWII higher than BO2
And BO1 Not being in at least top 3
@@BratVaxer BO1 used to be in the top 3, but the campaign loses it's luster once you know what the numbers mean and I was never as big a fan of Woods as everyone else is.
Ghosts to me has some of the least likeable characters in the series, they're vanilla, white bread, very boring which is why despite the confusing nature of BO3 it still goes higher up for me.
Do you mean OG MW2 or the remake? Either way I think both are better than BO2.
What's your personal top 5?
CoD 1 under BOIII 💀💀
this was so fucking good
Why thank ya!
I HATE Mw2 2022 Campaign. The levels are fun but the story is painfully bad. I hate the "twists". I hate the new characters. I hate the boss fight with graves in a tank. I hate the last level slowing down to a snail with the survival crafting gimic to kill the main bad guy. It also has NO stakes. Nothing happens. No one dies. Innocent people are not caught in the way. That campaign is not for me at all.
I still really enjoyed it oddly enough and I definitely feel like I'm in the minority there. I think everyone can collectively agree on MW3 2023 being the absolute worst though.
@@Drexxyl I don't think any less of your opinions on cod just cause we disagree. I too only play cod for the campaigns. This list was solid. Common ground on the new mw3 campaign being bad is good enough for me.
BO3 must be in top-10, this campaign is really "Brain Go Boom", no one can't waiting that from CoD.
But man... MWII and MW19 better than BO1/BO2? You joking? MWII better, than III, but this is still boring campaign, where nothing matter didn't happening. Even Ghost better.
I've liked Black Ops less and less as I've replayed them sadly. If you asked me like 5 years ago I probably would've ranked them higher.
@@Drexxyl You can replay Black Ops at least 100 times, but the plot in them will still be written many times more competently than in MWII.
Bro put IW below AW and MWII 😂😂😂
BO3: *crying*
Bro put world at war not in the top 3
Really great campaign, jut not in my personal top 3. Reznov might be the greatest character in COD history though.
Black ops cold war mw2 2022 and mw 2019 above bo bo2 waw mw3 is so unfair
I'm a huge defender of the first 2 remakes of Modern Warfare, and Cold War despite it's short length and kinda bad ending, it's setting elevates it high for me. Bo1 has fallen down the ranks as time goes on as I feel the twist carries a lot of that game and once you experience it again and again and again it just doesn't hold the same weight for me anymore.
Cod 3 best camping and game ever
Never rank anything again
What's your personal top 3?
Once I seen ghost at number 18 under vanguard bo3 I need this was gonna be shit
@@bradymcglone2283 I just wasn't a fan of the characters or setting. All very bland in my opinion. At least Vanguard had it's weird alternate WW2 setting going for it. And Black Ops 3 has a pretty good campaign if you can understand the complexity of it. What are your personal top 3?
Bo2 campaign is easily top 3 bro i dont agree with this list
I've been getting that opinion in almost every comment now, lol. I used to feel the same but I've just really enjoyed the first 2 rebooted Modern Warfare campaigns a lot and I still feel the original Modern Warfare trilogy (barring a few missteps in 3) is goated.
Sigh, another call of duty series video, another time United offensive was forgotten.
Not a mainline game as it's an expansion to OG COD, but I agree it does need some love. Same as COD 2 Big Red One.
@@Drexxyl I disagree. I mean I know technically it's not it's own game, but it's definitely it's own campaing and I would say it's miles ahead from origal call of duty. Yes there isn't like plenty of new features it's still product of the time, the first call of duty but maybe it's nostalgia talking but even CoD2 was downgrade in certain aspects to CoD UO.
@@martind5653 I forgot did UO still incorporate health packs? Or did COD2 get rid of them for regenerating health?
@@Drexxyl UO still had them which lead to some frustrating areas, but I feel like UO missions felt more like real scaled battles.
so tired of ghosts hate bo3 was the most boring campaign imo
I just find the characters pretty generic and boring honestly, and the setting does nothing for me. Black Ops 3 is an acquired taste I'll give you that.
My List:
1. MW2 (2009)
2. MW (2019)
3. MW (2007)
4. MWII (2022)
5. BO1
6. MW3 (2011)
7. WAW
8. INFINITE WARFARE
9. COLD WAR
10. COD 2
11. MWIII (2023)
12. WW2
13. GHOSTS
14. ADVANCED WARFARE
15. COD (2003)
16. COD 3
17. BO2
18. BO3
19. VANGUARD
Damn MW3 (2023) is pretty high up I'm surprised. Not surprised on the original MW2 being at the top, GOAT pick.
Bo2 was way freakin better than bo cold war bro tf u smokin
That 80's aesthetic really spoke to me man, lol. While I understand how important Bo2 is it's just not as good as a campaign to me personally as it used to be.
This list is trash 😂 bro put vangarbage over ghosts and Cold War over bo2.
Ghosts just had a very boring cast of characters and setting for me, and I love the 80s aesthetic in Cold War over BO2's future setting. I know many fans would probably put BO1 and 2 at the very top, but I don't hold them in the same regard. Still great games though! What are your personal top 3?
Mw reboot series all average AT BEST
MW 2019 is one of the best COD's we've had in years, not even just the campaign but the whole package. Game brought back COD from the brink of collapse. It did however introduce Warzone which I feel has taken over the Campaign now sadly.
@@Drexxyl spec ops n ground war cool but campaign weak doe, is like cod if cod made by netflix
@@AliBazz Do you prefer COD to be crazy over the top, or more grounded in realism?
@@Drexxyl doesnt matter as long as well written
@@Drexxylwell, yes that’s the point of cod they always had over the top Micheal Bay esque action in some way.
You got ghosts so fucked up besides the cliffhanger it’s one of the best. Top 5 at the very least
That cliffhanger just brings it down a lot for me personally.
Ghosts campaign is definitely better than cod 1 2 and 3 and vanguard I don’t know what you’re smoking
@@blaketerry3778 Well COD 1 and 2 are classics and Vanguard at least looks nice sometimes. Ghosts to me is just, I don't know it's very bland. Nothing really stands out for me besides Riley, and I consider them just a marketing gimmick.
@@Drexxylthis is the same person who put MWIII below bo3 amd Vanguard which just isnt true if anything MWIII should be equal with MWII and BOCW
Ghost campaign is really good , your list sucks
I'm honestly very surprised how many people like Ghost as it's widely considered one of the worst in the franchise. Thanks for checking out the video regardless and leaving a comment, regardless if we agree or not it means a lot to me.
I would rank COD 3 above COD 2. The character development between Guzzo and Dixon is amazing. Guzzo goes from the naive/arrogant radioman to this battle hardened, tough soldier while Dixon is always the level headed squad leader where after he dies, he shows that he really did care for Guzzo. The amount of hate that COD 3 gets is criminal.
I don't HATE COD 3, I just prefer 2 over it, probably a nostalgia thing as 2 was my first COD.
