We’ll learn that Iraq had nukes and it was actually former Soviets controlling them. Also they did indeed do 9/11.
Well if highway of death was done by those evil Russians, then why not blame them for Iraq as well!
No no no, you don’t understand. It’s a totally different fictional battle that just happens to be in the same country in the same war! SMH my head you gommulist conspiracists
Was going to say, setting this in Iraq feels redundant as we already had an Iraq stand-in in the first modern warfare, the whole game was like influenced by the war.
and in MW2019 like every level was just a retell of a different Iraq war movie, with some Iran and Syria thrown in. what more is there to say guys? unless this game has Captain Price dome George W. Bush with a Desert Eagle in first person I don’t fucking care.
Iraq stand-in
The original Modern Warfare took place in a post-revolutionary Saudi Arabia which unified with Iraq and Kuwait.
There’s a cinematic mission were you are a traitor of the revolution and you get shoot by the secundary villain of the game.
For some reason (racism and islamophobia i guess) the OpFor is also present in Afghanistan in the sequel.
Watch them try to spin the Saddam Hussein as being a Soviet puppet somehow. Then a rogue groups of “Muslim extremists Or the “bad ones” want to do something with a nuke that’s aimed at like Israel or something
In COD4 the Saddam standin nuked his own city for the explicit purpose of killing American soldiers because that makes sense. Then it turns out he was just a puppet for the crazy Russian baddy and he gets captured and executed in literally the very next mission
Don’t forget how sad the poor genocide perpetrators were after murdering civilians. Sure millions of civilians died, but can you spare a thought for the people responsible being scared of fireworks???
There’s gonna be a part about how throwing child corpses into burn pits made PFC Kyle sad
Kill streak gets you the apache gunship scene where you gun down journalists because you mistake cameras for ak-47s.
oh my god what if they have a chelsea manning stand-in and they advertise it as trans character representation
where you gun down journalists because you mistake cameras for ak-47s.
very charitable to assume this actually happened and wasn’t just an excuse made up after the fact
I can’t wait to re-play Collateral Murder except the journalists are US troops and the helicopter is Russian for some reason.
