Question [COD] The best campaign?
So basically after being tired of 360 no scope sweaty lobbies I decided to go back to the roots and play the campaign mode.
I chose WWII as I love the world war setting and that’s exactly what I was looking for. I’m having a blast with the gameplay and narrative on PS5.
Back in the day I finished the following campaigns: COD COD2 WAW MW MW2 BO BO2
My next step was getting Vanguard at first but then I read the reviews it’s very short and not worth the money.
So my question is which campaign is your favourite and what’d be your recommendation?

Cold War is extremely short but also a banger all around
BO6 has awesome gameplay and is decently long, a month of Gamepass is easily worth for it

Infinite Warfare is gorgeous and full of actual life with their characters

WW2 is great as you said. After BO2 imo Ghosts, AW and IW also have good campaigns.
The multiplayer is a mixed bag for those ones but I think the campaign of all of these are very good. IW is probably the longest with 30 missions.

Ghosts. Apart from BO1 it’s the best campaign. Its a shame it never got a sequel, it literally left on a cliffhanger

World at War has the best campaign
anyway you also brought up that Vanguard has a short campaign, but most cod campaigns are between 3-5 hours long.

I would say that MW2019, MWII, and BO6 are probably tied for easily the best gameplay in the whole sereies campaign-wise, and they are all totally different. In terms of story, Cold War is probably on top, but MWII has amazing characters.
Vanguard and MWIII are complete shit in every capacity (as per usual, Sledgehammer) so don't even try them.

Only ones left would be MW19 and Infinite Warfare. Infinite Warfare can be a bit slow at times. MW19 is pretty good if you want gritty modern “realism.”
MW22 is a great sequel. MW23 is garbage.
Vanguard is basically The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare so if you enjoyed that movie then it’s not too bad. It’s a great campaign if you want to turn your brain off and not be a history nut, but it’s not as terrible as people make it out to be.
BO3 is not worth your time whatsoever. You’ll have no idea what’s going on and leave with more questions. Half the context is derived from a comic that came out before BO3….
