Call of Duty 7 and 9 plot

Chapter 1

The plot is arranged according to the timeline

On October 29, 1945, Dragovish and his adjutant Kravchenko (the second boss of this game) Led the Soviet 3rd shock army to raid the wreckage of the freighter. In this operation, the Soviet combat pigs Dimitri Petrenko and Viktor Reznov of the original 5th generation (dimitri was the character controlled by the player in the 5th generation, and Reznov was The old man who instructs players to snipe German officers in the first level of the Soviet campaign, who often appears in subsequent levels, and a guy with a loud voice) also makes a cameo appearance. In the last level of the Soviet army in Generation 5, dimitri and raznov attack Entering the Reichstag Building in Berlin, Dimitri was shot in the face at the last moment of victory and finally insisted on planting the Soviet flag on the roof of the Reichstag Building. After that, the two brothers happened to be assigned to the Third Shock Army to participate in this operation.

The operation went very smoothly. Under the leadership of Dragovish, Kravchenko, Dimitri, and Reznov, the Soviet army quickly broke into the German army, found Dr. Steiner, and successfully obtained the poison gas (the poison gas was not destroyed by the SS. Probably the attack was too fast and there was no time). At this time, Dragovish wanted to test the power of poison gas. At the same time, mainly to silence them, he arrested Raznov and Dimitri's troops. Then in the cargo ship, Dimitri was poisoned to death by poison gas in a sealed warehouse. The death was very miserable, while Raznov had just When they were about to be poisoned, the British special forces arrived (probably to steal the poison gas). Dragovish, Steiner and others immediately escaped, while Raznov and several surviving brothers killed the British and Soviet troops in the chaos. came out and successfully sank the freighter, so that the British army did not obtain the poison gas (probably they did not know about it), but Dr. Steiner was still alive and the poison gas did not completely disappear. Later, Raznov was captured by the Soviet Union for unknown reasons and was imprisoned in the Vorkuta Labor Camp.

On April 17, 1961, the United States launched the Bay of Pigs operation against Cuba. This operation really happened in history, but the plot in the game is completely different from the history. CIA agent Mason (this is Pig's Knuckle) and his teammates woods and bowman were ordered to assassinate Fidel Castro (the first chairman of the Cuban GCD). The operation went very smoothly. The three of them successfully entered the Cuban army. Mason killed Castro with his own hands. Woods also stepped forward to fire several more shots. After that, the three of them successfully boarded the escape plane. However, when the plane started on the runway, Mason saw The enemy arrived with a large number of armored vehicles and anti-aircraft guns. He resolutely jumped out of the plane and used an anti-aircraft gun on the roadside to destroy a large number of enemy armored vehicles. After that, his teammates' plane took off smoothly and escaped, while Mason was captured by the Cuban GCD. Afterwards, Mason woke up and found himself on a certain seaside, next to a large freighter with RUSALRA written on it (this was actually the secret communications base where Dragovish released the broadcast), and Castro was actually standing in front of him alive, as well as Dragovish and Kravchenko! Through their conversation, they learned that Castro had already known about the CIA's assassination plan, and that the man Mason and the others killed was just a stand-in. Afterwards, Castro gave Mason to Dragovish as a "gift" and asked Dragovish to torture Mason. Afterwards, Dragovish and Dr. Steiner seemed to have another secret research, in which they brainwashed certain prisoners to serve themselves.

Since Mason was a CIA agent, he was very suitable to be used as a killing tool. They brainwashed Mason and instilled the order to assassinate US President Kennedy! At the same time, a code-breaking program was implanted in Mason's brain! But Mason is not an ordinary person. He has a super strong will. His brainwashing failed, so Dr. Steiner gave up on Mason and sent him to the Vorkuta Labor Camp.

Mason came to vorkuta, and then he met Raznov and became good friends with him. Raznov wanted revenge (Dragovish betrayed him more than once, and of course Dimitri's revenge also had to be avenged), but he seemed to have insufficient strength on his own. Then he discovered that Mason was very skilled, so he planned to let Mason help. The strange thing was that Raznov was very interested in brainwashing. He actually knew something about the matter, and he secretly instilled the idea into Mason: "Dragovish, Kravchenko, and Steiner must all die!" and he succeeded (it's really nonsense, but it may be because Mason and him are good friends, Anyway, his brainwashing was successful). Then he plans to send Mason away. Mason himself didn't know anything about being brainwashed, and his brain seemed to be damaged during the brainwashing. Later, he often had hallucinations when performing tasks, thinking that Raznov was fighting with him. In fact, Raznov had died long ago. .

On October 6, 1963, Raznov led other workers to launch a planned riot. In the chaos, a large number of workers were killed. Mason and Raznov fought side by side and finally succeeded in killing them out (including one driving a motorcycle) In the escape part, the action of loading the shotgun with one hand is really cool). In the end, Raznov successfully sent Mason to jump on a passing freight train, and he drove the truck in the other direction in order to allow Mason to escape successfully. to attract the attention of the pursuers. Afterwards, Mason successfully escaped, but later in Hudson's analysis, it was learned that Raznov himself failed and was killed during the escape. Later in the plot, Raznov often appears to help Mason at critical moments, but these are actually Mason's hallucinations.

A month later, on November 10, 1963, Mason returned to the Pentagon. After passing the loyalty test, he became a CIA agent again, and Jason Hudson became his new handler (I don’t know how to translate this, If you've played Splinter Cell, that Lambert is Fisher's handler). President Kennedy personally summoned Mason and gave him a mission to assassinate Dragovish. Of course, Mason accepted the mission.

A week later, on November 17, 1963, the CIA carried out Operation Blitz. Several Special Forces soldiers (Woods, Mason, Bowman, Weaver, Brooks) attacked the Soviet Baikonur space base. The tasks included: Destroy the Soviet long-range missiles (rockets), eliminate Soviet militants (including Dragovish) and some Nazi scientists who surrendered to the Soviet Union. Weaver was blinded in one eye during this operation. In the end, everyone went to the rocket console but found the console Broken and unable to stop firing long-range missiles (rockets). But the Soviet scientists were too thoughtful. They had already considered the possibility that if an employee accidentally launched a rocket and the console failed to terminate, they stored a rocket launcher at the door of the console in advance to launch the rocket. After coming down, Mason insisted on finding Dragovish and killing him with his own hands (the result of being brainwashed), but Dragovish had already escaped.

Chapter 2

On January 21, 1968, Mason and Hudson were incorporated into the SOG team and went to Vietnam to investigate evidence of the Soviet Union’s covert actions in Vietnam. The actual content of this test was The plot doesn't matter much. Mason and the others just happened to encounter a large-scale attack by NATO GCD when they arrived, so they suddenly got into trouble. . . Finally I met Bowman.

On February 2, the US military did not find evidence of Soviet intervention in the Vietnam War. At the same time, the US military was facing failure in Vietnam, but SOG was unwilling to give up and resolutely parachuted into the chaotic hue city to search for evidence. In a building, Mason found a file, which turned out to be about the nova project! After that, everyone huddled and went home.

A week later, on February 9, through studying the documents, the CIA discovered one of the clues: chemical engineer Clarke. Soon the CIA confirmed Clarke’s address: Kowloon, Hong Kong! So Hunson and Weaver were sent to Kowloon, Hong Kong to capture and interrogate Clarke. Clarke revealed the address of Dr. Steiner and his laboratory, but before Clarke could reveal more important information, Soviet special forces arrived. After all, Hudson and Weaver are members of the Special Forces, and they are very strong and can fight with their guns drawn, but the stronger one is Clarke! This guy was actually prepared and released the poison gas that he had arranged in advance (he actually also had poison gas...). Many Soviet special forces died immediately, and then Clarke led Hudson and Weaver to escape into a small room (yes, you You read that right, it was Clarke who escaped with Hudson and Weaver, not Clarke who was escaping from the front (Hudson and the others were chasing after him), and then Clarke opened a secret room, which turned out to be a private arsenal. After that, the three of them grabbed their weapons and started firing. On the way, Clarke named a string of numbers, but when he was about to tell the meaning of the numbers, he was hit by a stray bullet and died. While Hudson and Weaver continued to lurch, they finally retreated safely.

At the same time, on February 9 (the same day as the previous level), according to previously found documents, the CIA suspected that Colonel Kravchenko (Dragovish’s second-in-command) was conducting poison gas testing in Vietnam. At the same time, the CIA learned that Col. Kravchenko was in northern Vietnam, so the SOG team (Woods, Mason, Bowman trio) in Vietnam was sent to Vietnam to search for evidence and get rid of Kravchenko, but their plane was shot down on the way, and they were all the way After fighting, Mason finally found Kravchenko's communication station in a cave of the Vietnamese army, but Kravchenko had already escaped, and Mason only got some information.

On February 11, I received news from Hudson that a Soviet transport plane carrying nova 6 poison gas crashed on the Laos border, so SOG (Woods, Mason, Bowman) rushed to Laos in the middle of the night to search for the plane wreckage, and finally It was discovered that there was no nova in the wreckage at all. At this time, a trap was discovered. After that, the three of them were besieged by a large number of enemies and captured. By the way, let’s talk about the game’s soundtrack. The soundtrack itself is pretty good, but it doesn’t match the game scene at all, so when I play it, I don’t feel as immersive as Modern Warfare 2. But this level is an exception-- At the beginning, a group of US troops drove a gunboat, carried rocket launchers and mounted machine guns, listened to country music, and then demolished Vietnamese houses. . . Just like a certain brother said, "What kind of Forsdale is this...".

On February 18, the CIA did not organize a rescue operation for Mason and the others, probably because they thought they had died, because they had previously learned about Dr. Steiner and his laboratory from Clarke. Address - Mount Yamento in the Ural Mountains, so four persons, Hudson, Weaver, Harris, and Brooks, were sent to search for relevant information and capture Dr. Steiner.

During this mission, Harris fell off a cliff and died. Others finally found Steiner's office, but Steiner was not in the base. The entire base was covered with bombs and wires. At this time, Steiner cracked the radio frequency of Hudson and others and contacted them. Steiner told them that Dragovish was cleaning up all facilities and personnel related to nova 6 (nova 6 has been developed and Dragovish was going to silence him again), and he himself was about to suffer. Moreover, Dragovish has deployed a large number of gas chambers in the United States, and these gas chambers will automatically open as long as a specific password is broadcast. Dragovish will start broadcasting within 36 hours (actually the release time of the gas was delayed a lot for some unknown reason. Of course, it may be Steiner exaggerating here a little). Only Steiner knows how to stop broadcasting, and at the same time he also mentioned his base. --Rebirth Island in the Aral Sea, the implication is that the US military is required to go there to rescue him. After that, Weaver took a picture of the location of the gas warehouse, and then everyone rushed out of the base and returned.

On February 19, the plot returned to Mason and others. After the last arrest, the three of Mason were imprisoned somewhere in Laos for interrogation. Vietnam is too naive. It is very possible for SOG, the most elite special forces in the United States, to kill more than a dozen armed militiamen with bare hands. Mason and Woods even had handcuffs and anklets in the interrogation room. No Dai, there were a total of 5 people in the room, two soldiers were sitting lazily in the back, the other three were surrounding Mason and Woods for interrogation (Bowman had been beaten to death by the officer for not cooperating), and Mason and Woods He actually sat there playing Russian Roulette (fuck), probably because he wanted to keep playing until he revealed the information. Afterwards, the two found an opportunity to kill several guards and escaped. In order to take revenge, the two did not leave directly, but drove the stolen plane to another base road to kill wildly. When they got to the innermost part, they found Kravchenko was here, so they killed Kravchenko by the way, but at the last Kravchenko Pulling off the grenade and dragging Woods, the two finally died together. In this way, only Mason was finally returned to the CIA.

On February 23, Mason also learned Steiner’s address after returning to the headquarters. He was worried that after finding Steiner and the poison gas, the United States would be like Dragovish and would not destroy the poison gas but use it against the enemy (the Soviet Union). ), of course, the more important reason is that he has the belief in his mind that "Dragovish, Steiner, and Kravchenko must all die", so he must kill Steiner with his own hands (or see Steiner die with his own eyes), so he went to Rebirth Island alone to assassinate Steiner. In fact, at this time, Hudson and others were already on their way to Rebirth Island to rescue Steiner. However, because Hudson and the others attacked from the front, while Mason sneaked in from behind alone, in the end, Mason was a few minutes faster and successfully killed Steiner. Afterwards, Mason was knocked unconscious by Hudson and others and brought back to the headquarters.

The next step is the interrogation room scene that appears at the beginning of the game, probably on February 25th. The interrogators behind the scenes are actually Hudson and Weaver. It is common to hear someone reading strange numbers during interrogations. This is actually Dragovish's broadcast. The broadcast has already begun! However, it seems that the order to release the poison gas has not yet been issued, but the crisis is imminent. Since Steiner is dead, no one knows the specific location of Dragovish's broadcast station, and Mason has been implanted with a code translation program before, so only he can translate the code. , to find the broadcast station location. So in order to help Mason remember the code-breaking program, Hudson helped Mason recall his experiences over the years (that is, the content of the game), but in the end Mason still couldn't remember it.

Until the end, after listening to Hudson telling the truth, Mason listened carefully to a broadcast and thought of a word: RUSALRA - this was the name of the ship that Mason saw after being arrested in Cuba in 1961, and that ship The ship is somewhere in Cuba!

On February 26, the CIA quickly found the specific location of RUSALRA and launched an attack on it. When Mason and others broke into the ship, they discovered that Dragovish had actually built a tower directly under the ship. The secret underwater radio station, that is the source of the broadcast. At this time, Weaver received news that the Navy would blow up the ship and underwater broadcast base within 15 minutes, but Mason insisted on going down and killing Dragovish himself (the result of being brainwashed by Raznov). Afterwards, Hudson asked Weaver to go up first, and then sneaked into the broadcast base with Mason. In the end, the two actually found and killed Dragovish, and then the two returned to the sea safely. game over.

However, after the game ended, there was a cutscene. An announcer was still reading those numbers. The broadcast was still going on? Or is there more than one radio station, and there is another radio broadcasting the password? In the final photo of Kennedy's assassination, Mason actually appeared in the crowd in the background. . . . . .

End of 7

Although the story of "Call of Duty 9: Black Ops 2" is described in 2025, it will start from the Cold War in 1980 and mainly talk about "Black Ops" 2"'s villain Raul Menendez's life experience. This person provoked a war between China and the United States in 2025. In the story set in 1980, players will take on the role of Alex Mason, the protagonist in Black Ops. Much of it is devoted to proxy wars in Central America. Frank Woods, another character from "Black Ops", will return in "Black Ops 2" and narrate the story that continues until 2025. Viktor Reznov's subplot and his relationship with Alex Mason that began in War of the Worlds and flourished in Black Ops will continue in Black Ops 2.

Throughout the story of "Black Ops 2", Menendez has been using future technology to disrupt the already unstable geopolitical situation. In a mission late in the game, the opponent sent a formation of drones to attack the G-20 Summit held in downtown Los Angeles. The Chinese know that the drones are not sent by the United States. When American drones attack their homeland, their suspicions become more serious. I don’t know Menendez’s motives yet, but after watching this mission, I feel that this man’s ability to cause destruction is much stronger than he appears on the surface.

Half of Los Angeles was in flames. At the beginning of the mission, David Mason protected the female President of the United States in the back seat of the transport vehicle. Treyarch wanted the future in Black Ops 2 to feel believable, so it looked more like present-day Los Angeles than the futuristic cityscape you saw in The Fifth Element. The street scenes put Michael Bay's movies to shame, with dozens of fighter jets, numerous armored vehicles and countless infantrymen creating majestic mayhem. Mason's vehicle missed multiple explosions and overturned on the way into town, only to discover that it had been hit by friendly forces.

Mason climbed out of the car wreckage and locked his eyes on an anti-aircraft machine gun mounted on an armored vehicle on the highway. There was a big hole in the road directly below the car, and the hanging vehicle was in danger. He climbed into the car, held the machine gun, and immediately locked onto seven enemy drones and shot them down from the sky. Mason repeated the process, shooting down several subsequent groups before the vehicles fell through the hole in the highway and below. Our hero instantly leaps to safety, grabs a charged (as opposed to powder-powered) assault rifle and prepares to take on Menéndez's ground troops.

Just a few seconds after Mason’s feet hit the ground, I saw something unusual for a Call of Duty game.

There are two markers near the edge of the collapsed highway called "Sniper" and "Rappel". Both options involve fighting Menendez's forces, but players can choose how they want to play. Using a rope to descend allows players to quickly run between bunkers and eliminate enemies, in typical Call of Duty style. Sniping, on the other hand, provides the opportunity to use futuristic technology. If you choose the latter, you'll want to try out a sniper rifle that can see through walls, in a manner similar to the "clairvoyance" gun in Perfect Dark. Sniping enemies through walls gives Mason a tactical advantage, but this weapon also has a downside, which is its slow reload speed. Even with this minor inconvenience, the sniper option provides a more novel (and tactically safer) way to fight.

With the immediate threat under control, Mason jumped into a nearby car and headed straight for the summit. An enemy flew towards the car windshield. As soon as the car accelerated, they were all dead souls under the wheels. The vehicle sped along Figueroa Street, passing several familiar sights, such as the Los Angeles Convention Center (home of the annual E3) and the Staples Center. At this time, a semi-truck trying to escape from the city overturned several cars and blocked Mason's path. He jumped out of the car and continued to fight the enemy on foot until he encountered a new type of enemy - the "Claw" (CLAW, which stands for Cognitive Ground Assault Weapon). This quadruped robot is loaded with weapons. If its four legs are not destroyed, it will pose a huge threat to you. After using this strategy to destroy the robot, Mason rushed to the bunker in a shopping mall.

There, he summoned two flying turrets called quadcopter drones to assist him via a touchscreen on his wrist. Three gun barrels, not one, opened fire, clearing Menendez's men to pieces. Air support made a clean sweep of the enemy, but there was little it could do as the hotel building collapsed in front of Merlin. What follows is a scene all too familiar to Call of Duty fans, as the player is knocked unconscious by rubble and then regains consciousness.

After the collapse, the scene in Los Angeles was very similar to New York, which had just suffered the 911 attacks. Streets and vehicles were covered in dust and rubble, and everything was gray. Mason lingered for a while before following instructions and climbing into the cockpit of a military vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft, where a voice over the radio assured him that the onboard computer would handle most of the heavy lifting. Not far away, a friendly vehicle was transporting an important figure (perhaps the President), and a Harrier-like fighter jet proved its worth in road clearing. In the process, it destroyed a parking building and caused a large crane to crash into a skyscraper.

Finally, drones roaring in the sky are regarded as the biggest threat at present. At this moment, the fighter jet switches from hovering mode to jet mode, and a thrilling aerial dogfight is about to take place. Players are given full control of their aircraft, and the ensuing battle feels like Ace Combat rather than the choreographed dogfight sequences of yore. Mason's fierce battle was interrupted by an incoming missile. He was unable to eject from the cockpit. Before he could land on the street, his body was violently thrown into a building. At this point, the experience is almost over.

Network director Dan Bunding showed me some of the upgrades. Treyarch has been working on a hybrid of what he calls "techniques and techniques." He takes me on a tour through a pure scene of one of the levels on the Yemeni island of Socotra, showing off its HDR rendering, reflected lights, and self-projection (“Lighting plays a big role when it comes to image quality,” Dan says.) , and a new texture technology called "reveal mapping", which simply means comparing the tones between two textures and then combining them into one.

Some of the graphical improvements are non-technical and more practical. There is a level in Los Angeles in the future called "Aftermath". Dan pointed out that there are many unique environmental designs in the level - coffee shops and hotel lobbies, so that players can easily shout their location to their teammates without having to describe it.
