captain

price

presents the idea to kate, guys, that he wants to form a task force, a task force known as the one by one, now we know this task force of the three first

modern

. games and we know that an important part of this task force is none other than MacTavish

soap

and it turns out that while presenting this idea to Kate Lau's well, he mentions three soldiers that he wants to be an inaugural part of this team. Sergeant Kyle, I call him gasps, he never said anything.

John or Tabish, SAS sniper demolitions pass, so why is he ranked there? This is Simon Riley, there is no image, ever, not inverted. Need to know: We have a deal, what do you call this? task force one complete now this is what's interesting about that, after the release of Modern Warfare we now know who two of those three characters are in this universe, first of all we have Kyle Garrick aka Jades he was a part main

story

of Modern Warfare. after that we have Simon Reilly or the ghost who is added in the second season of Modern Warfare, but finally we have a character that has not yet been added to the game.

This is what is on this channel. I like to do stories about the different campaigns and characters of the different Call of Duty games and most of the things I've done up to this point are looking at individual characters and their specific stories and a lot of times I take requests from you guys about what you want to see which characters do you want me to delve into their

story

today is a little different, today we dive into what I think is one of the best stories in any Call of Duty game, in fact I would probably say it's one of my favorite stories of Call of Duty and this time it's not about an individual character - this is the story of Captain Price and MacTavish

soap

, it's the FNG sir, she's the first to die in the regime, what the hell is soap called?

They had a bagel like you our salvation this story begins right at the beginning of Call of Duty for the first modern war game the first thing called soap for

price

is a muppet and to bet on you you assume that Captain Price is going to be the typical tough military soldier who always gives you orders, but that really couldn't be further from the truth, but I guess I shouldn't say that because for about the first third of this game that's exactly what the second mission of This game, the first real mission for the MacTavish soap opera, is literally called Expendable Crew to make you think you're just another expendable soldier, but that's turned on its head when literally two encounters into this Mission Alone, your ass is save for the price, double the page 15, what about the trainer?

Then after this, for the next two missions, you get to experience what I like to call the price, show the price, be a total badass beating people up and that's until you meet Al-Assad and you get to listen a little more of Captain Price's backstory, well that's after he does this, who is this Mr. Zack? I'm Rancic I eV and this is actually a big turning point for the game. overall because instead of seeing Captain Price as a

captain

, you can actually see him and play as him as a lieutenant under Captain Macmillan and this is a really important part of the game because it shows that Captain Price is a more vulnerable character. learning from a different captain and you can really see why Captain Price treats the soap the way he does, it's not necessarily that he's just a tough guy, it's him taking the soap under his wing like Captain Price was. taken under McMillan's wing, this is going to come into play.

Later, to a large extent, another reason why this mission is incredibly important is that it explains Captain Price's motivations from now on for the rest of modern war games, essentially when he shoots to kill them, takes a taxi, misses and it just hits. His arm, Captain Price, then blames himself for all the events that progress in the rest of the modern war games, essentially if he had hit that shot, none of these wars may have taken place, but for him that's not what it seems and then after this point throughout the Call of Duty 4 campaign, it almost seems as if Captain Price is trying to get soap under his wing a little more in each mission until the end of Call of Duty.

Duty 4, where soap and price are trying to track. in Rinzai kyiv, when they are thrown from their vehicle and trapped on a bridge and when it seems like they are totally cornered, there is only one way to survive, the price has to completely put their trust in the hands of the soap instead of the price. Trying to take the fatal shot, he throws his pistol at the soap, who is then able to take out Emerton. Zach. This scene is incredibly important not only because it is the death of Enron in a cave, but this is the first time Captain Price is fully capable. putting his trust in someone else and that someone is soap now, after this soap and Price narrowly escaped, a couple of medical soldiers are even seen doing CPR on Captain Price, but they make it out alive.

Captain Price was able to rely on two soaps. hands and it worked now this is where things get weird because the next mission they did as a couple was known as Operation Kingfish and it takes place before Modern Warfare 2 and this is the explanation of how they get all the information about Makarov. They raid a facility and find this information, but at the end of this mission, Captain Price ends up cornered in a field with Russian soldiers closing in on him and his team can't save him, they take him captive and Soap is clearly devastated that he can't go back and help his mentor and from this, the task force soldiers one by one would assume that Captain Price is dead, that is, until Modern Warfare 2, so from the beginning of Modern Warfare 2 there are essentially four main scenes in this game that completely changed the relationship between price and soap, the first of which is at the beginning of the game, you assume that Captain Price is dead, gone, not in the game and from the beginning we find out that soap MacTavish has been promoted to Captain McTavish and is passing over a new soldier Gary Roach Sanderson or just Roach and the first two things we see of MacTavish soap as captain is number one, he is smoking a cigar like Captain Price did and Number two, save your ass from the cockroaches. almost immediately, just like Price did with the soap, the second important scene is of course in the gulag when the task force one by one goes to save the prisoners 67 when they finally get to the prisoner this is what happened , leave it alone, this belongs to you, sir, who is so?

Now, here's the thing, the important part of this scene is not the fact that the soap saved price, yes, that helps the story move forward, but the important part of this scene is that as soon as the soap is given He realizes that this prisoner was Captain Price, the first thing he does. What he does is return his gun, the exact same gun that Price throws at him at the end of Call of Duty 4, again, this will come into play later. The next scene that always seemed strange to me is the death of Roach and the ghost.

It's not weird because they died, I think it's an awesome plot point in Modern Warfare 2, but what's weird is that from the beginning of this scene, the ghost actually asked permission for the ghosts and Roach to specifically go to the safe house. alone, leaving the two captains. price and soap to go on your own mission, it would be strange not to have a captain on a mission, why wouldn't you send a captain to both places? And it's the price that really gives the go-ahead for those two to continue that mission. mission alone and well, we all know how it ended now imagine the guilt of Price and Soap, the two captains who leave their crew stranded to death, that guilt is something that only Price and Soap can share together and the final mission of Modern Warfare 2Price. and soap together they are going to avenge the death of their friend and what you have to realize at this point is that the only people really left in life are soap and Nikolai, that's it, everyone else has died, the cockroach soap from Call of Duty, because everyone is dead and we are left with the soap and this is where it is finally the turn because when all seems lost once they have located Shepherd, the soap is stabbed in the chest, the price is taking a beating, but this time it's not the price that saves the soap like in Call of Duty 4 it's actually soap that saves the price, but here they are on the verge of death trapped in the middle of the desert.

Soap has a giant knife wound in the middle of his abdomen, but Price is able to get up and catch them both. However, the soap is very close to death and this is where the events of Modern Warfare 3 now begin. This is where the whole story comes together. This is my favorite part of these two characters' story arcs, so first of all from the beginning. From Modern Warfare 3, Soap is on the brink of death and Captain Price needs to get him to safety, get him a doctor and cure him, and with the help of a new soldier named Yuri, he can do so successfully and once the soap is finally cured.

They recover, return to their military duties, and try to defeat Makarov until a crazy event happens. Now after taking a 8-10 story fall soap, it's in pretty bad shape and you may have noticed that the price isn't. runs over and checks URI, he immediately went to check the soap, he's his friend, he's been around for years and we'll see more of that in a second here, but the next scene is, in my opinion, probably the saddest seen in any Call of Game of duty, this is where this relationship between price and soap comes to an end, come on, stay with me, son.

No, so you have to go now, let me, I'm sorry, this scene is huge for so many reasons, first of all, this is the first one. There's a moment in the entire trilogy where you see Captain Price lose his cool and get a little scared and then once he regains his composure he goes and does one last act towards the soap, gives him the gun back, this is the same gun. from Call of Duty 4 that was slipped to him to kill Imran Zekkai or is it the same gun that Soap returned to him after saving prisoners 6 to 7 from the gulag and finally is it the gun that Soap was buried with, is it a symbol of their friendship is a symbol of this almost father-son relationship that Captain Price had with the soap opera and it's the same type of relationship that we saw with McMillan and Price, it's the same type of relationship that we saw with the soap opera and Roach and finally Captain Price is I left with URI Murie and Nikolai, but Nikolai simply flies the helicopter, but in the final mission of the Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 campaign we see that Makarov shoots URI, after which Captain Price finally eliminates Makarov, but there's one thing I never hear people talk about Modern Warfare 3.

Everyone thinks Modern Warfare 3 has a really happy ending, but it doesn't. Yes, the world was saved. World War III ended, but Captain Price, who started the Modern Warfare series, was surrounded by. his fellow soldiers and friend and his future friend soap is now alone in a rubble building hit the destroyed world around him is completely and utterly complete oh I don't know what the most uplifting ending to this story is, but I think it's a story Amazing, the contrast between Captain Price surrounded by his fellow soldiers calling soap a muppet to the end where he lies alone, wounded, wounded, smoking that last cigarette is such a striking contrast in a character story arc and, personally , it may not be a happy ending, but it is a story that I love and I am happy to share it with you, so, as always, if you enjoy these types of videos, it is appreciated if you press the Like button.
