* In 2, at the beginning of "Team Player", while covering the bridge-layer, if you look around you can find a Ranger taking cover behind a car with several other Rangers. Unlike the others, he isn't wearing a helmet and isn't firing his gun. What he is wearing is [[CoolShades aviators]], and what he is doing is ''eating a chocolate bar in the middle of battle''. If you go up the stairs, you can find another Ranger eating a chocolate bar.
** While waiting for the airstrike before crossing the bridge, several Rangers pull out their phones to record the airstrike.
* The end of The Gulag in [=MW2=] has your team rappelling out of a deep, exploding hole into the sky by a helicopter while everything explodes around you. And then Price of all people has a completely over the top scream of freedom during the epic sequence. It’s so out of character that it catches many players off guard into fits of laughter.
