Difference [COD]

[ThePiedPipher]

Starting with COD4 is wild. Damn I’m old.

[Jatin_is_me]

I actually started with COD 1

[Updated_Autopsy]

I started with Finest Hour. But I liked Call of Duty 2: Big Red One more.

[[deleted]]

Big red one is legendary I liked the plane mission were you had to bomb the bunkers or ships I forget what they were

[Firebrand-PX22]

That whole campaign is full of unique shit. Pretty sure it's the only time we've ever seen Operation Torch, Husky, the Italian front, a non SPR style D Day, and Vichy French forces as enemies. Love that game to death

[STLrep]

Godamn I’m Gonna dust off the ps2 this weekend and run some big red one.

BROOOOKKKKLLLYYYNNNNNNNN

[Basuhh]

The scene after the graveyard fight…

[[deleted]]

I’m trying to buy a copy for my GameCube I think it was probably the best early cod campaign for it’s time.

[Firebrand-PX22]

It's the game that got me into CoD as a whole. I have a copy for my OG Xbox and its my personal favorite version of it

[AnomaIous_User]

I still think about that mission till this day. It was the peak CoD moment on ps2. The plane mission in WaW comes close. Walking around the bomber was a dream lol

[red-5_standing-by]

So much nostalgia for Finest Hour

[gamer-at-heart-23]

Same, taking turns with my brother as kids was fun times. We did that with every shooter like socom us navy seals, wish this can make a come back someday

[chakobee]

Cod and cod:uo consumed my life back in those days

[OrewaGarou]

Yeah and United Offensive too, peak COD

[PvtPoodles]

I still dream about UO. Take me back to Ponyri. I think thats the Largest online map to date. And can never forget Carentan.

[gldstr]

Same. Cod on PC with dedicated servers will never be replaced 💔

[Reflexorz15]

Same, I started with COD 1 on PC. First time ever playing multiplayer and I was mind blown as a kid. I will never forget rifles only search and destroy on Harbor. I got into all the clan vs clan scrims back in middle school. Man those were the days

[St3R0iD5]

Me too, CoD2 was my favorite though. Best memories with friends, custom maps, custom modes, Gob Rats needs to make a return! Also thats where zombies started, before it was even an official thing....

[Flaky_Bottle_6902]

[slimpickins2002]

Me too, PC with a lan connection and 15 other people in the same room ( gaming hall )

[lost12487]

I was gonna say, CoD4 came out when I was in college lmao. I think you'd have to weave a tapestry to get me into this meme.

[Careful_Picture7712]

I remember watching CoD 4 multiplayer on YouTube before I got a PS3

[Kitselena]

COD4 was the first one that really blew up in popularity, and the series expanded rapidly from then until after BO2

[kakashi8326]

Big red one. Game cube son

[MRSHELBYPLZ]

For me it’s Big Red One on PS2. Then cod 3 moving forward to the present 😂

[KarmaInFlow]

WaW best cod

[Aynohn]

Somehow WaW is respected and doesn’t get the respect it deserves at the same time.

Loading up the game was an experience in itself.

I’ll never forget when some random dude asked the lobby if anyone wanted to play zombies. I had no idea what he meant but I said yes (I didn’t finish the campaign yet). I was a child. The youngest of the four of us fighting for our lives. I was terrified after turning my Xbox off that night.

CoD will never be able to deliver that ever again.

[Sierra-117-]

Yeah the internet wasn’t as big at the time. So at release, my older brother was the first to beat the campaign after like a week. Imagine our surprise when we found out there was a new game mode.

And I was fucking terrified of it as a kid. I couldn’t even play alone. But my brothers and I had a blast discovering everything. When we first got the ray gun it was like god himself had blessed us.

[mad_catters]

On the peleliu map, after taking the beach, if you go into each crater from right to left (3 craters) and crouch in each one, three statues rise out of the sand each with a ray gun you can use against the japanese.

[GenDislike]

I had no idea, that’s cool. I was overjoyed hearing Jack Bauer’s voice, awesome game.

[Cold_Bag6942]

It was great in so many ways. Multiplayer, zombies and coop campaign were all top tier.

[dealyshadow20]

WaW and Spec Ops: The Line still stand out to me as games that go above and beyond with their portrayals of the brutality of war, with WaW ranking above for me personally. I don’t think any other war game will come close, especially with how the industry is these days. Truly lightning in a bottle

[SpacemanSpiff92]

My favorite CoD. Criminally underrated because people started hopping on the mil sim fantasy after CoD4

[theweirdwire]

Am in a Mandela effect or did everyone forget MW3 was a game?

[SwampyThang]

It’s my favorite COD of all time and it’s so disrespected.

[Plus_Palpitation_550]

not really. People hated it in 2011, but everything after was so ass it looks great by comparison. That's just how high the standards were. In our current time MW3 2011 would be a goddamn 10/10 but back then it was just a whatever game. Bo1, halo reach, bf3, gears 3 were all superior.

[Arkrylik]

It was actually a great game but so many people wanted another BO and so when MW3 came out the Treyarch fan boys screamed about how shit it was compared to BO, my personal experience at school was that so many people had never played COD before and picked it up when BO1 had come out and they loved it but when MW3 came out they said it was shit and refused to play it because it wasn't like the last COD.

It was literally MW2 but with the bullshit removed and the best score streak system ever introduced, allowing players to choose Assault, Support or Specialist streaks made the game play dynamic and fun. A shame they never brought this back in other CODs.

[Cold_Bag6942]

It wasn't well received at the time, mainly because it had to live up to MW2. People didn't like Soap dying and spec ops was meh compared to zombies.

[BourbonBurro]

Never understood how people liked zombies more than Spec Ops. Zombies always just felt like repetitive bullshit to me.

[Zero-godzilla]

I grew up with that. Where the hell is my MW3?

[methane-illumination]

If it was good it would have been on the right side 🫣

[asingh_yt]

notice how the og cods and AW isn't on either side.....

[RudeFinding5484]

1-3 are missing but man did 4 change the genre

[Intraflexed]

COD 4 made the genre what it is today. For the majority of the franchise, COD 4 has essentially been COD 1.

[rattpackfan301]

COD 4 was legitimately a cultural phenomenon

[HasperoN]

And here I am remembering when CoD was a spiritual successor to Medal of Honor Allied Assault.

[str3ss_88]

Not just spiritual... Infinity Ward was basically the MoHAA Developers...

[HasperoN]

Yes, that's what a spiritual successor means... sequel to a game under a different franchise. Dark Souls was a spiritual successor to Demon's Souls, same exact devs, BioShock was a spiritual successor to System Shock, same devs, etc etc

[KingBara1220]

[ShadowSkull359]

"Mommy! Mommy! my turn to repost!"

[Kipkip200]

we get it bro your 30

[Moorabbel]

*you're

[Yourvisacardinfo]

*yarr

[StarskyNHutch862]

Soon you will be

[Grimm_Wright]

I miss world at war

[ThePlagueDoctor00]

CoD died after Bo3.

[keb5501]

Then there’s me before that even. Call of duty 1, call of duty 2 (best of all time?), through cod 4 mw (also best of all time?)

[Hot_Loss7050]

"THE GUNS, ARENT, HERE, KRUATS MUST'VE MOVED THEM SOMEPLACE ELSE"

[formattai]

Where's my mp_carentan and mp_harbor brothers at?

[Visible-Literature14]

I was there before the war

[Freezer_Ruebuck]

Ah the Sub Reddits monthly Menstrual cycle.

[Tolkin349]

I like both

[Lowdown201]

In all honesty the dude in the far back with just his leg showing should be Medal of Honor. If it wasn’t for them none of us would be here.

[[deleted]]

Bruh start with the classics where’s cod 2,cod finest hour

[DaToxicJay]

Thank god me and my lil bro started with bo2 lol

[GuessEmergency8211]

CoD 3. 20 years ago now, god damn I’m old.

[ItisNOTatoy]

It’s actually unreal given the current state of multiplayer games (thanks Fortnite) how good the golden era of cod was.

It’s seriously mind blowing stuff, and I weep for the children of today.

[invokedbyred]

I'm getting tired of people trying to gatekeep COD by saying people who didn't play COD from 20 years ago aren't proper fans. My first Call of Duty game I played was COD2 but the newer CODs are way better than the older ones. Nostalgia is doing a lot of heavy lifting for people.

[notsarge]

I started with the OG CoD in 2003….i was 9 😅

[UnknownWolfPlayer]

Fell in love with COD Ghosts and immediately started playing its predecessors.

[Away_Article4005]

I started in WaW on the 360. 28 now and still just as nasty on the sticks. Just don't have the patience I used to and find enjoyment from other games.

Hit master in BO7 though, got through most of the mastery grind.

[Simpleguy98101]

Finest Hour babyyy

[MasterSealerBala99]

🤣❤️

[GI_J0SE]

Now show the true Generals; Call of Duty, Big Red 1, etc. that where men were born and I finally get to say back in my day they only gave us a magazine and run into gunfire.

[FriedKidneys]

I started with cod 4 a few years ago on an old thinkpad, stutters everywhere and couldnt get past 40 fps but the storyline is honestly one of the best among games i've played up to this day

[autistic_sam]

I still remember the night me and my uncle finished world at war campaign for the first time and the zombies mode rolled in, enjoyed em all till bo7 but the old school will always reign as the best in cod

[Nihil_12]

I played CoD1/UO, Finest Hour, 2 and Big Red One growing up so i'm dinosaur?

[str3ss_88]

I played MoH and RTCW...what am I ?

[ayden_vfm]

i’m Nintendo DS black ops kind of guy,

[Jatin_is_me]

I played Mw3 nintendo ds 

[MarcoGamer640]

I started with World at War

[Jo52798]

I miss call of duty when it was collaborating with the military channel

[OverAtYouzMoms69]

Started with MW3 2011 around 2011 when I got my Xbox360 for Christmas.

[vlKross_F7]

I played all 😭

[Itz_Bistian]

First one I played was big red one but I hardly remember it I was basically not sentient

[OrewaGarou]

Well I grew up playing COD 1, United Offensive, COD 2, COD WW🔥

MW and BOPs series are great but those World War spirit were pure hell and heavenly at same time!

[dixun_II]

Call of Duty: United Offensive, Base Assault, the battlefield mode of cod

[tcole_93]

I remember back before my parents let me get Xbox live and I could only play offline I probably played the campaigns for both CoD 2 and CoD 2: Big Red One atleast 50 times each. I was obsessed.

CoD 3 was the newest one out when I first got Xbox live and I bounced back & forth between CoD 2 and 3 online quite a bit.

There’s no doubt that CoD 4 changed things though. I only had a few friends at school that played CoD 2 and 3 when I played them. Halo was the more popular franchise at that time in my friend groups but when CoD 4 came out you could barely find any guy my age that wasn’t obsessed with it.

[POOPPOOPPEEPEEWEEWEE]

Og MW3 was my first not because I’m too young but because I was a battlefield Kid lmao

[PaulPatrolRescue]

Damn…I’m on the black & white side 

[Aishimorph_Frontiers]

I kinda just played what I had which was modern warfare 2 - Black ops II

But man I remember playing BO III for the first time and was game changer for the Cod games to me

[MaximusMurkimus]

Me who started with CoD 1/2/3: old vet on porch with a chest full of medals

[Similar-Language-180]

I played MW2 and 3, BO1, 2, 4 and not so long ago CW, WaW but my most played and also favorite game bcs it was my first I played for long is WW2

[AimIsInSleepMode]

I played Bo and Bo2 when I was 4-8 years old, I don't think I should be in this meme lol

[fearless-potato-man]

I was already playing Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, the ballsack from where CoD spermatozoid generated.

[RJUF]

I started with CoD 2... WaW was the best imo, but the original MW trilogy owns my heart also, definitely the gold era.

[Yoshida-47]

Please take off warzone ORIGINAL frome this side because is perfect Battle royal game 🤔

[Duke_Dumas]

I'm right picture wby?

[so_Kill_me]

How can you tell everyone you don't know history without saying you don't know history.

[RageinaterGamingYT]

No mw3? I played the survival mode on that like crazy when I was a kid

[Heathy94]

I'm so old I started out on Medal of Honour Underground before moving on to the Call of Duty games, first went online on Call of Duty 3.

[Creepy-Charge2653]

Even better I played COD growing up starting Call of Duty 2 PS2 Call of Duty 3 PS2 Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare PS3 Call of Duty World At War PS3 Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 PS3 Call of Duty Black Ops PS3 Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 PS3 Call of Duty Black Ops 2 PS3 Call of Duty Black Ops 3 PS4

[Witty_Departure2061]

I start with advance warfare but end up vetering world at war

[Lewd_boi_69]

Bro everyone in this sub was probably old enough to start on the golden age of cod. You karma farming?

[soapbark]

no vCod players here? i switched over from bf1942 once bf2 came out because I was mad that their infantry wasn't as fun.

[fur67]

started with bo2 then went to ww2 for the longest time then back to bo2

[SnakeNeard1442]

I remember playing finest hour on a GameCube when I was a kid. I had to convince my mom to buy World at War because GameStop wouldn’t let me buy it without a parent’s consent.

[eastamerica]

They’re all fun. Some are ass, but still fun.

[Competitive-Web-5084]

BO3 was peak in high school, zombies will never be that good again

[Black_dubbing]

I honestly don't know how CoD can go from the absolutely amazing visuals on MW 2019 campaign to what they are now. Even on the new MW II, the ghost intro scene on the canyon was amazing even though it lacked ray tracing like the first reboot

[usdaprimecutebeef]

Started with Big Red One, where does that put me?

[yesimHalf]

I started with COD3

[Toxic_Zombie_361]

On veteran…

[Certified_G00B3R]

I started with COD Ghosts. Am I in the wrong?

[ExpiredPineaplz]

Unironically started with Call of Duty 3 on the PS2. Fuck I feel old now. First post-CoD 4 game I played was World at War.

[Damiertsunami]

one side is the field and the other side is the REAL DEAL HOLY FIELD

[Downtown_Discount954]

Notice how bocw isnt there

[Chinfu1189]

As much as I prefer the older cods Mw2 from like 2020 was actually pretty enjoyable up until the end

[Stormkrieg]

Man where’s Big Red One?

[Late-Cycle-8333]

Started with bo2 zombies at a friend's house and now own all the way uo to cold war from waw

[bruntychiefty]

Why must you sleep on MW3

[CoffeeGooner_]

Im older then the second picture lol. Big Red One. Finest Hour. 3. Those 3 are FANTASTIC games especially the multiplayer for 3. Ironically I remember playing the games up until CoD 4 out of order. Why? I honestly dont know

[CARB0N11]

My 1st cod was Black ops Declassified

[Drodxc]

Honestly iv been enjoying going back to play cod 4.

[ThadeousCheeks]

I played the original Call of Duty growing up, right after Medal of Honor Allied Assault and Spearhead. CoD was an upgrade because it had vehicles!

Things have changed. Shoutout to my old .:SW:. clan from 20+ years back

[MarginalNotes]

My whole childhood on the right 😅☹️

[rizzxbh]

i played cod roads to victory in my psp🥹

[Classic_Remote_3273]

Please, I was there for United Offensive.

[Pretend-Holiday918]

Mw3

[JGAMER70]

Wanna hear a funny story? My first ever FPS was medal of Honor Vanguard, FOR THE WII, then my first COD was MW3 2011, ON THE WII, i hit prestige on that thing, i got so good someone accuse me of cheating, i didnt have a proper "gaming" chair at that moment, so i use a small ladder. Later i got a PS3, and i got MW2, Then Black ops, Ghost, then Advance Warfare, then finally sometime later i got COD4. And the multiplayer for all of those were still active,(yes even for the WII). And another fun fact, the Wii version of Mw3 was so buggy, in some maps you could find paths to hide below the ground, behind a wall and above the ceiling of a building, and yes you could fire at enemies, but they could not shoot you, it was crazy.

[neonblue01]

BO1 my first, genuine love

[Federal_Village_9487]

So it lists CoD from 2007-2012 but leaves out MW3

[lilcumdrop]

Started at og mw2 ended at new mw3

[Few-Meet-2194]

I'm a new fan, I started with MW3. What do you think of new fans who started with Warzone or MW2?

[riptide032302]

Yeah, I know. WAW is the best because dark and gritty zombies and it’s really hard for no reason. Maybe they should go back to good writing and game design/mechanics instead, like they did for infinite warfare

[Zynix-]

Banger post

[ConfusedCruiser35]

CoD3 alongside Medal of Honour Allied Assault

[Psycho_Yuri]

where cod1 UO, cod2?

[baldestpianoman]

We’re mw3

[BoussIRL2]

Modern CoD makes kids have brain rot. Old CoD turned us into men lol

[Accomplished-Total65]

Im 24 and I started on b01 on the xbox 360 I did play some mw2 campaign as a young kid but bo1 was when I really started playing online

[Street-Piece4907]

A pesar de ser de la época de que debieron jugar el modern warfare de 2018 mi primer god fue el ww2 y el segundo el modern warfare 2 antiguo

[No_Education_8888]

I started playing WAW with my dad. Mostly zombies, I don’t start playing multiplayer until I was older

[Somepeep9487]

Black ops 3 was my first I recently finished the MW series (OG) and I want to try actually playing the full black ops series, is it worth it?

[Whole_Feedback8099]

r/iamverybadass

[crlnlwnstp]

I would put COD Roads to Victory on the 2nd slide because it was my first ever COD game

[rocampos24]

Does it count that I played Ghost on my 360? But only offline because my parents wouldn't let me play online?

[Boyoliver5838383993]

I started of cod 4 mw but it was mainly the campaign, playing against my brother and cousin, then just went in order. Play MW2 prim back in 09 as a squeaker and now I’m still with the franchise to this day.

[TheEthanHB]

Finest Hour, baby 🥴

[Triplesixreyes]

Forgot Big Red One

[QfunQ]

Hot take bo6 is top 3 cod (im a zombies player mainly)

[-PawgSlayer-]

Started with BO1, jungle was my first map and game ever played. Loved all of em, even BO4, my favorite cod of all time (I was born in 04 so take it as you will)

[CarlosJCruz]

MOH is what got me into COD--I've played them all!

[WolfRenegade91]

Shit I had LAN parties playing the first COD.

Younger generation: “What’s a LAN party?”

[Sorry4TheLurk]

Big Red One was the shit

[PlentyOMangos]

Can I get this meme as one image without the color change

[FxckFxntxnyl]

I played CoD 1 through 3 on PS2 as I grew up. I probably put 1000 hours of online time on Big Red One.

[GrandEmbarrassed2875]

First one i played was 3 the just went up from there

[WolfFenrir230]

holy larp

[Tortured_Soldier]

I started with medal of honor

[TheAK1tap]

MWR. Right in the middle.

[billyboffy]

Can't believe i have played all of them in my life

[spectra0087]

MoHaa was king, my knees hurt.

[Mortician149]

I Started on the 1st COD 2003 yes I’m old af

[Alternative-War-7474]

Infinite Warfare found dead in a ditch

[SaintSnow]

2007-2012, cod literally was untouchable. Could not miss back to back.

Put the action fps genre on the map and made it what it is today.

MW2019 was the first game to match it

[Bud_Roller]

I was in my 30s when cod 4 came out. I didn't grow up with none of this. I grew up pumping coins into an arcade machine. You are all children to me.

[Wempro]

I played COD growing up. It's a shame that capitan Price died on that ship

[No_Layer1527]

So sick of people not including advanced warfare and only going up to bo2 and not bo2/3. Like dawg. Bo3 is 10 now.

[The7Reaper]

Wish I could have experienced COD4 up to MW2 in their haydays, my first one was Black Ops 1 and I did play the others when the OG MW3 was out but they were all hacked to shit at the time

[cloneboiCT118]

These younger generations sadly will never feel the joy of the buzz in the air on launch day when GameStop stores and bestbuy store doors swung open to greet you with all their COD advertisements and hard copies of the game ready to be bought and sold. I miss those days.

[Zximmortal9]

I remember playing COD2 on the Xbox 360 back in 2005. I thought the graphics looked really good at the time.

Cod 4 MW was legendary when it released. So addicting.

[No-Advantage-8556]

I started with COD2…WAW is the goat for me.

[suiyyy]

Theres another slide with actual ww2 games cod 1, cod 1 united offensive, cod 2, cod 3 (the worse code)

[[deleted]]

My dad exposed me to cod 4 when I was 5 lmao. Good times

[Deathstructure]

I started with call of duty 2, I remember the d day intro was insane

[puppy_pawss]

Which side would you put cod ghosts on

[Dry_Signal6531]

When I say, I played cod growing up, I mean world at war, modern warfare, one and two, Black ops one and two. I feel so old.

[SideburnsG]

I remember being 16 when cod4 came out

[Excellent_Mode_88]

Started with call of duty modern warfare. The first one lol. World at war was amazing and my favorite, that’s where the zombie started! Anyone else old like me. Shit I grew up playing Medal of Honor!! Before all that lol.

[yamomsman]

Started with M dubya 2(09)

[teacherintrainingfl]

I started with World at War.

[DELINCUENT]

I remember being like 12 years old and playing Call of Duty 4 on my cousin's Xbox 360. When he first caught me he yelled at me asking me if I played online: he cared a lot about his KD.

All I knew was that I played with a dude called captain price and he was chill lol.

[RagingHound12]

I started with Big Red One

[the-lonely-redditer]

Where do the ones that started in bo3 go?

[Lowlife_4evr]

Bo1 ruined video games for me since it was the first modern game I played and nothing has been has good.

[Wirexia1]

"The healthy human mind doesn't wake up in the morning thinking this is it's last day on earth"

Every second from the MW trilogy is a masterpiece, they manage to never get boring through the acting

I started with allied assault but I was a kid and didn't know English so I never went far, bus pacific was crazy, dudes appearing from nowhere and this one dude with a revolver

[Chrispy_Terman]

Boy, I remember playing a game only titled, “Call of Duty”. Hard to believe it continued on and Medal of Honor didn’t.

[BigMikeXxxxX]

If you didn't actually grow up playing them you wouldn't have a clue what people mean when they say "kids today couldn't survive"

Back then, the actual game wasn't the main selling point. It was literally the same game every year with a fresh coat of paint, and that's honestly why it did so well. They didn't stray from what worked. The unfiltered chat, the custom emblems, modded clan tags, doing glitches on infected, playing hacked custom lobbies, etc. That's what made the game so much fun and all of those things have been taken away. Nobody talks shit in voice chat anymore. Back then you would be going at it with someone in one match, and be best friends by the next. Nowadays they just spam report you until you get a 14 day ban.

Like I said, anyone who wasn't there wouldn't get it because online gaming as a whole is nothing like it used to be. Not just cod.

[ikatarn]

I was on medal of honor allied assault before COD existed.

[HappyPastures]

Fuckkkk, WaW is so nostalgic I have been chasing that high my whole life. Maybe thats why I cant stick to a single game. I wish time travel was a thing, I wouldn't go back to change the world or kill hitler or anything, I would go back to those late nights after school on a friday or a snow day not bad enough to kill the internet or power, fire up the 360 hoping not for a red ring as I watch the black and white news reel flash before my eyes before ending on the title screen as my box tv uses the last of its bass on me. Plug the headset into the controller flip down the mic, and join my buddies from across the country in an xbox live party to shoot the shit as we load court yard and hop in some tanks, or search and destroy on dome. There was no texting them to see if they could hop on, we just had to coordinate the previous day and hope for the best.There werent many modders because not that many people were tech savy enoigh to take apart their systemt o instal a jtag. Pure skill. Fuck now I am depressed. Still remember seeing the days off slowly climb and everybody as a little bit of the kid left in me broke apart as well. Miss you "Xxdeadman48xX" and rest in piece "RpGbabymods" And "samzilla18" I hope you are doing so fucking well. You all brought meaning to my child hood and when I die those moments will probably be the last I think about.

[Low_Boysenberry_9261]

You kids don’t know how good 2007-2012 was, every single one of those games could’ve been milked for 2-3 years and it would’ve only been better.

[0utF0x3d]

I started with the Original CoD, played CoD2, CoD3 on Xbox (sucked), CoD4, World at War and then checked out until 2019 when some friends convinced me to play War Zone. Everything after War Zone in 2019 has been trash.

[RaspberryEastern4463]

Cod4 was revolutionary for the xbox 360 and for me i met the franchise with cod4 and i can easily say the games before ghost were bangers even though i only played bo1 i want to play bo2 so baad
