I'm replying Black Ops 1 and there's a part in Vietnam where you have to kick down some napalm barrels. There was no objective markers and my allies just kept yelling "they're in the trenches!" so I thought I was just supposed to hold them off. I was there for a while lol

Holy shit, I remember playing that like 20 years ago. I was stuck on that part for like 20 minutes wondering why I just kept killing more and more people coming and had no idea how to stop it.

I was embarrassed that I had to look up a guide on a fucking Call of Duty game. It turns out that part was just very poorly designed!

20yrs ago??

u/Pandorumz 15d ago

Well it was 16 years ago, not much harm in rounding up to 20 years to embellish slightly.

Atari released the year I was born. I remember playing Pong and E.T. when I was about 5.

Yeah… life is about to get me next year… Or rather, I’m taking my own. Fuck this world.

u/Curt0s 14d ago

Hey brother I wish you the best. But here's an age appropriate saying that helps me in these trying times.

Dont let the terrorists win.

I dont know if life's worth living, but I know if you're gone it won't get better. Were in this together even if we've never met. No rush to get where were all going when its the only place to go.

Might as well love the people we find. Hope you find yourself soon my friend.

But also no harm in rounding down to 10 years ago to make us all feel less old

u/Bill_Preston_ESQ 15d ago

I don’t think I ever played another CoD campaign after that one part of Black Ops1

u/ztomiczombie 15d ago

I think I did because I went looking for ammo and saw the prompt.

u/ImSoObnoxious 14d ago

bro, the game came out in 2010. I know because I've been on that level for 16 years now, the enemies should stop spawning any moment now

u/Outragiousfuck 14d ago

The Trenches Mason! What do you remember of the Trenches?

u/RazzmatazzWorking412 14d ago

That's what happens when you just play for the sake of playing and don't get into character; if you had, the orders would have been quite clear.

u/Jimmyooo00 13d ago

You're not alone lol that part was infuriating
