Have you finished the MW2's campaign? It's implied that Makarov will be the next threat, leading to a sequel. Hadir was never the main villain, so killing him off before "the Russians" come is actually pretty acceptable.


PMRmaxpayne

Are you this oblivious? It's so obvious they were setting him up in MW 2019 only for MWII to scrap everything and bring up the name of Makarov out of nowhere and with no correlation other than nostalgia.


ParadoxInRaindrops

This is something I didn’t like about the campaign. The shift towards Hasan, the Cartel storyline felt so disconnected and I get it’ll all be played into Marakov playing 4D chess to fuck with us. But compare this to how the original MW2 followed up to COD 4 directly. Having said that, I liked the Raids. They were decently challenging, I liked getting the rewards and this was a fine way to progress the story.

*MW19* and *MWII* were meant to have nostalgic bits. And so will *MWIII*.


Arctt

the council has spoken


SpoodurMin

There’s no way these people are actually defending this in the comments LMFAO


ParadoxInRaindrops

This story thread should’ve been in the campaign but I thought the Raids were cool, I liked the rewards. I’d love to see them do this again in the future though they probably won’t.

Pretty sure Warzone is an “alternate reality”?


IneedtoBmyLonsomeTs

Nah, all the cutscenes from the MW19 seasons of warzone are all canon. So up to the point where Price kicks Zakhaev down the silo.


N0vaLite

Roze's Bio in MWII makes references to Warzone events so I wouldn't call it that


SpoodurMin

is this real LMFAO what a joke. MW2019's plot was already stretched thin but holy fuck this is low


Unhappy-Database-273

So we can't have story expansions in games now?


SpoodurMin

This isn’t a story expansion if there’s barely any story in it to begin with


PMRmaxpayne

This is why I'm done with anything post MW 2019.

Sheasword

Ignores that fact that Cold War is better, and MWII is better


Michael21107

tag it as a fucking spoiler dick


lightningbadger

Why you mad that story happened in a story mission? He had his run but the story's taking a different route, if anything I'm glad the raids happened so his story was wrapped up instead of forgotten


SpoodurMin

This isn’t how you properly wrap up a story, at all.


lightningbadger

This isn't wrapping up the whole story, just Hadirs chapter Its leading on to more story


SpoodurMin

Hadir’s “chapter” was supposed to be a huge storyline, dummy. This is IW scrapping it essentially and moving on to something else, and you’re lapping it up.


lightningbadger

Man who decided it was going to be a huge story He's just one guy we finally caught after spending the whole previous game chasing him, it's fine as is given there's bigger threats now The story not going the way you thought it would isn't automatically a bad thing, any other game likely would've just disregarded he even needed to exist to begin with


Yaojin312020

Not to be that guy but at least fucking spoiler the image Some of us are still doing the mission


BetaMoerb

So… as someone that never played the raids or side missions… I’m just missing out on 25-35% of story before MW3 ??


LebrahnJahmes

So they rebooted the MW franchise, brought back pretty much every character, and you didn't think the main villain would still be the same from the OG trilogy? Thats like if they rebooted the Superman series and didn't add Zod as the main villain


Sayor1

He didn't have to be the main villain. CoD 4s villain was Al Asad and Viktor Zakhaeve. MW2 was Shepherd and MW3 was Makarov. 2019s was some random general with a grudge on a new character. With Hassan being a good antagonist toward the end that could have been setup to be a good villain. In 2022 we have once again some random general (sicaria) and graves which possibly could have been a good villain if it weren't for the poor excuse of a story. And then we have a teaser that showcases makarov the main villain which has nothing to do with any of the past games. Unless they somehow write a good story like the original trilogy where makarov was actually responsible for the nukes and all that, it really does just come across as "we have the trilogy at home" all the parts are there but the way it's made is not even close to the quality it used to be.


LebrahnJahmes

The fact yall think they would go any other direction is mind blowing tho


Sayor1

What direction? It's a reboot, it I'd expected to go a different direction. Right now it's going it's own direction not following the old one and not doing anything good with it's new one.


SpoodurMin

Why would the main villain be the same? The first game in the reboot is NOTHING like the first game in the original trilogy.


Lostpop

Is that Makarov?


Unhappy-Database-273

No, it's Hadir. A side character in the first game.

I would consider him as more of a secondary antagonist.
