absolutely insane to me how much content there is here. all this work never intended to see the light of day. Must be heartbreaking as a developer to spend so much time working on all this only for it to just get shelved. I know that not ever project is going to reach completion, but this mission specifically looks quite late-stage in terms of art passes and scene scripting for a 2011 cod game. just in awe of all the effort that's gone to waste here.
Someone said it's called a vertical slice. Meaning it's purposely polished up to show investors and have potential footage for trailers and such. Just a way to showcase before they continue more work
This made me realize how much I miss the old style of Infinity ward COD. No long movie-like CGI cutscenes, no constant talking from the protagonist during gameplay, more floaty/slower gun animations that sort of flowed like a dance with the gun in your hand. Less of a focus on characters that can be repackaged and sold like toys in a item shop.. Man COD used to be something else. I miss those days.
Cod 4 felt like grounded action movie, that was followed by sequels made in Bay style- random explosions, over the top story, bombastic speeches etc.each mission in Cod 4 had unique vibe, MW 2 was packed with so much stuff going on it got dull after while.@@Hybred
When the original Infinity Ward left, so did the true essence of CoD. Now we get shitty cutscenes instead of the amazing real time ones that we used to get with OG IW. The quality of CoD has constantly just been an attempt of coasting on the original IW's works since MW2. That's why we haven't seen anything groundbreaking or revolutionary since 2009 within the series.
@@phil_matic and from 2013 to the end of 2017 IW for some reason they felt the need to compete with Respawn Entertainment, since most employees from Respawn were former IW employees. which meant making generic futuristic garbage in hopes that people would like it more than Titanfall.
The arcadey smoothness to aiming, how stiff your gun is on camera is great compared to the animations now. Everything has sway and feels like a bit too much. The older Cod engine feels better than 2019+
I cant understand you all. We used to have continuous Futuristic Warfare CODs over the previous years, such as; Black Ops 2, Advanced Warfare, Ghost and the infamous Infinite Warfare. Back then, the community keeps demanding a Modern Warfare series boots on the ground as well as WW2 games yet here we are now going circles aye? I rather Have COD Medieval Warfare at this point then.
@@HobeyDatorThere actually was supposed to be a medieval COD at one point. It was a COD game set in the Roman Empire (okay so not medieval but you get what i mean it was pre-industrial) and was in third person but it was scrapped in 2008. The idea was MW1 had just come out as an experiment to branch off from COD just being set in WWII and it was a smash hit so they experimented even further with the idea that COD could be ANY kind of warfare and that it didn't even have to exclusively be FPS. Ultimately they didn't go far on this idea though.
The developers at least considered that optics on rifles would need to be offset to compensate for the bulkiness of spacesuit helmets...unlike Starfield ffs

They mentioned this story in the infinite warfare campaign of how sato and sdf had a war prior to the events of infinite warfare and given the cod ghosts references in infinite warfare I think this is the first wars earth had with Mars aka the SDF this gives me the expanse vibes so much and this prob would have been better if they had this than ghosts
Yeah I remember there about first war between UNSA and SDF called "Secession Wars" is a conflict between the nations of Earth that became the United Nations Space Alliance and the Settlement Defense Front. The war took place 30 years prior to the events of COD Infinite Warfare.
4:15 this gun has nearly the same exact reload animation as the Vector in Ghosts. I wonder if maybe some of Ghosts animations were initially made for “Future Warfare”
I feel like If Future Warfare was released in 2013 instead of Ghosts it could get a better reception then IW. At the time the market was still overwhelmed by Modern Military shooters, and an unexpected space CoD could have been the most surprising switch of a setting akin to CoD4 moving from WW2 to the present era
@@Idkwhattoputhere5123 AW was way overhated. The movement was actually skill based unlike in later jetpack games and it was extremely fast paced so you needed to think and react quicker. All the maps were made with exo-suits in mind and it was damn fun to hop on platforms and play with verticality. However the balance was killed by damn supply drops. Campaign was pretty meh and zombies were terrible though
The ABG-4L acts more like a handheld grenade launcher rather than a normal handgun; the crosshair is really odd, too. I wonder what kind of weapon it's meant to be.
My assumption going through these is that there's no "Energy Weapon" category only "Ballistic and Energy" Weapons that are in the same category style that Infinite Warfare uses
Can't remember if Neversoft even exists anymore, but if any remnants from that team get together, they could make their own legally distinct cod game with this.
iirc Neversoft became part of Infinity Ward around the Ghosts launch/cycle, so probably they reused and expanded this concept in Infinite Warfare/The space mission of Ghosts
@@DarkexNarukami Honestly, yeah that'd make sense considering the space suit designs in this build, I wouldn't be surprised if the idea came from there and used it as a reference.
The IW4 engine was put to good use, creatively wise. Even if there's not much of a graphical uplift it can still immerse you into the world of this game. Just imagine if Neversoft was given time to polish it up and release it as their own game.
Would've been a day 1 buy for me. I liked the Infinite Warfare campaign, probably would've loved this one too. Man I miss great CoD single player campaigns.
Probably because a cod set mostly on the moon would get extremely stale after awhile. Which is why assets and concepts from this were repurposed in cod ghosts' space mission.
How I like that here the developers are not shy to show helmet visor (like in Republic Commando) and slowed dynamics due to weak gravity. That's really cool.
@@lesleyguevarra5374im afraid that old COD is dead...hopefully the writers and higher-ups make better decisions after the absolute shitshow that new MWIII was..
This is how I envisioned the game was suppose to be when they said Future Warfare at the time. The whole exo/nano suits they did on the other sci fi games were too ahead of their period to be a future warfare kind of game.
Crazy so much work went into this game and it never was released or finished. It's different enough that if they did not want to make it a COD game, it could have been something entirely on it's own. I like how it's some where between Advance Warfare and Infinite Warfare. I would have definitely have at least tried this out if it had been released.
All I can say is WOW. Infinite Warfare is my favorite CoD after World at War so this looks unbelievable. Hopefully this will be leaked for the public to play because I really want to play it.
@@smokejumper749 It’s the ONLY call of duty that shows the inner workings of an actual military, in this case a fictional Space Navy comprised of all countries on Earth united as one. Also, Brian Bloom who plays the main character Nick Reyes, who has been a voice actor at Infinity Ward for years, wrote the game himself so all of the dialogue uses real world military lingo and abbreviations. Every character he created I cared for, wether they were black or white, male or female, they are all tastefully written and have unique personalities that made them feel like true people. The story has weight to it’s plot, characters aren’t safe and most importantly you as the protagonist go above and beyond the call of duty, a principal that the series was founded on with it’s WW2 roots. On top of that, you get to explore the entire solar system through not only the main story, but with side missions as well, which no other CoD campaign features. In terms of CoD production value it gets a 10/10 for me. It essentially feels like an updated version of 60’s Star Trek but with space M4A1’s, electromagnetic AK47’s and advanced A.I. mechs that act as armor support.
@@Tomofdahook17I agree fully IWs campaign is S-Tier. But everything else was just kinda meh imo. Multiplayer to me felt like a reskinned BO3 but in space.
@Tomofdahook17 I actually enjoyed IW for the opposite reason: the story is this big dumb space blockbuster with the emotional depth of a vanilla wafer. The mission design is very fun though, and I enjoyed the renewed versatility of the combat. The guns were cool, space combat was fun, and multiplayer had some cool maps. I still really enjoy the original Black Ops though.
This game looks and plays better than 2023 MWIII and 2021’s Vanguard it’s a shame this game never came to be because it honestly would’ve been way better than what we ended up with
You'll pay $40 for this singular mission and you'll LIKE IT. Guns will be available in multiplayer too so all your friends will know your a space cowboy 🤠 Future Warfare: Moonfall DLC $39.99
Looks like the Modern Warfare 2 codebase adapted with space theme, running on a Xbox 360 build (code-name: xenon). Very interesting stuff right here. I miss this OG COD games.
Imagine if they had made a futuristic Warfare game set within the same universe as the Modern Warfare trilogy instead of making two Black Ops 3 spin-offs that had nothing to do with the overall Call of Duty timeline
So this is where the groundwork for futuristic cod sprouted (specifically ghosts and aw, maybe even iw). I'm curious what would've the franchise looked like if the devs decided to stop yearly releases and give titles like ghost a chance even with the bad receptions
No. This one foreshadows Ghosts (and later on Advanced Warfare) since Neversoft makes this cancelled project and the 2 COD series. Infinite Warfare took inspiration from Ghosts and AW when space conflict slowly became an acceptable gameplay for COD fanbase.
@@gavcom4060 Neversoft is not involved in Infinite Warfare. I agree it resembles a lot with this but credit still goes to Ghosts which is the first to introduce the space warfare concept, taking a lot of stuffs from here. Put simply: Without Ghosts or AW, there'll be no IW either.
I can totally see why this wasn’t fully realized, especially with what it was meant to contest. But wow, from what little we got to see weapon wise I really wonder where those interesting designs went when they started IW
Of course you would say that now. But you won't say this if it was 2010s. Because I still clearly remember all the hate for Infinite Warfare when it was first released due they said... too HALO-ish.
@@erkenaralov9502 I know he's referring to MW2023. I agree it sucks. But that's the result when Activision ran out of ideas and it degenerated into the quality we had today. It still doesn't change the fact there was huge criticism on Ghosts and IW when it was first released. Go check out the old forums and you'll see what I mean.
All these pepole in the comments talking about how disappointed they were that they never made this when this would've been completely hated by the cod community if it got announced similar to how infinite warfare did for being more futuristic
No because Infinite warfare was announced in 2016 after franchise fatigue set in, and this likely would have released after black ops 2 instead of ghosts, or maybe even before ghosts, which was when people would have really wanted a futuristic cod game.
I feel like this game would have taken place in like 2024 - 2030, it would have probably connected MW OG series to Ghosts, or a prequel to Ghosts and involving the Federation in some way, it wouldve been so cool to see this game released.
@@Enrique-wr9veyou got me until you did AW it was mad p2w and it had weapons lock behind lootboxs and samething with bo3 but at least the zombies were good doe
Our character have the US flag on the suit. While enemy have red flag and something yellow on top left. It might be soviet. This is timeline that they didn't collapse. Or China.
@@Idkwhattoputhere5123 Thank you for the info mate. I should of rephrased it as, I wonder what concepts were re-used.

It was simply the team learning the engine, they just went on to split into ghosts and (apparently) infinite warfare.
Probably because a cod set mostly on the moon would get extremely stale after awhile. Which is why assets and concepts from this were repurposed in cod ghosts' space mission.
How I like that here the developers are not shy to show helmet visor (like in Republic Commando) and slowed dynamics due to weak gravity. That's really cool.
Makes you wonder how many games never get to see the light of day
THANKS FOR POSTING WITHOUT TALKING THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE VIDEO LIKE ALL THE OTHERS DO
This one mission is still better than the latest MW3 campaign 💀
It’s literally the same gameplay, like all cod games.
Yes@@matthewwilliams3827
But it's way more in depth, more action, less talk and no corny dramatism, NX1, is what we should have been given
@@FirstNameThirdName-gj3wm Get lost kiddo
@@lesleyguevarra5374im afraid that old COD is dead...hopefully the writers and higher-ups make better decisions after the absolute shitshow that new MWIII was..
it’s got the star wars republic commando meets cod vibe that i didn’t know i needed.
This is how I envisioned the game was suppose to be when they said Future Warfare at the time. The whole exo/nano suits they did on the other sci fi games were too ahead of their period to be a future warfare kind of game.
So the entire stage is basically Rebirth
This on Veteran would've been *mind-numbing*
Fun facts. my speech is longer then this years call of duty campaign
Crazy how much work can be put into something like this and then just scrapped lol
This is insane. Thanks for sharing 👍
Crazy so much work went into this game and it never was released or finished. It's different enough that if they did not want to make it a COD game, it could have been something entirely on it's own. I like how it's some where between Advance Warfare and Infinite Warfare. I would have definitely have at least tried this out if it had been released.
All I can say is WOW. Infinite Warfare is my favorite CoD after World at War so this looks unbelievable. Hopefully this will be leaked for the public to play because I really want to play it.
May i ask why? Ive never played IW just curious
@@smokejumper749you need to its basically a polished futuristic OG mw2
@@smokejumper749 It’s the ONLY call of duty that shows the inner workings of an actual military, in this case a fictional Space Navy comprised of all countries on Earth united as one.
Also, Brian Bloom who plays the main character Nick Reyes, who has been a voice actor at Infinity Ward for years, wrote the game himself so all of the dialogue uses real world military lingo and abbreviations.
Every character he created I cared for, wether they were black or white, male or female, they are all tastefully written and have unique personalities that made them feel like true people.
The story has weight to it’s plot, characters aren’t safe and most importantly you as the protagonist go above and beyond the call of duty, a principal that the series was founded on with it’s WW2 roots.
On top of that, you get to explore the entire solar system through not only the main story, but with side missions as well, which no other CoD campaign features.
In terms of CoD production value it gets a 10/10 for me. It essentially feels like an updated version of 60’s Star Trek but with space M4A1’s, electromagnetic AK47’s and advanced A.I. mechs that act as armor support.
@@Tomofdahook17I agree fully IWs campaign is S-Tier. But everything else was just kinda meh imo. Multiplayer to me felt like a reskinned BO3 but in space.
@Tomofdahook17 I actually enjoyed IW for the opposite reason: the story is this big dumb space blockbuster with the emotional depth of a vanilla wafer. The mission design is very fun though, and I enjoyed the renewed versatility of the combat. The guns were cool, space combat was fun, and multiplayer had some cool maps. I still really enjoy the original Black Ops though.
Thanks for hosting this. You da real MVP.
Undeniably would've been one of the best COD games of all time.
Creative, too. It would still be boots-on-the-ground without being titanfall. The midway point between ghosts and advanced.
@@Idkwhattoputhere5123so like bo2 but little more future
@@funny-gv3ml yeah.
Settle down
Why? He’s right😭 this totally would’ve been insane at the time
Release the unfinished product. We want to try this!
Would still be more finished than MW3
Not likely.
@@Idkwhattoputhere5123 Your mother
This game looks and plays better than 2023 MWIII and 2021’s Vanguard it’s a shame this game never came to be because it honestly would’ve been way better than what we ended up with
This looks like a mission where you play as a throwaway character like Spc.Baker in CoD Ghost.
Big Boss? Is it really you?
Let's push Activision to finish and release this as a free bonus with the next installment of the game, just a few missions would be enough
"Remember; no Martian..."
I doubt they’d do that, tbh. They’re not one to release cancelled games.
It's too old
@@AK_AVFC never old for a free bonus, "concept"
You'll pay $40 for this singular mission and you'll LIKE IT. Guns will be available in multiplayer too so all your friends will know your a space cowboy 🤠
Future Warfare: Moonfall DLC $39.99
5:30 The devs surely had a great laugh making this😂
They should come back to this. A classic COD with a futuristic theme
LET'S GOOOOO
This is the cod game I always dreamed of when I was a kid
And we dont care about you being kid. Get LOST
what could have been, i still come back from time to time to see this video
DUDE I NEED TO PLAY THIS IT LOOKS OUTSTANDING!
THIS is what I think of when I think of COD in Space, It's such a shame this was never finished. This had so much potential
This looks like it would have been a good game and they got pretty far to waste the money and time already put into it what a shame
Looks still better than scam war 3
В наше время такие игры Активижн уже не выпускает. Одна треярч старается чтото сделать и показать, остальные студии работают на маркетинг.
Treyarch и Raven.
I love this and come back to it time to time! So much chaos and actual consequences
It baffles me that Activision cancelled this and we got Ghosts instead. This could've been amazing.
Looks like the Modern Warfare 2 codebase adapted with space theme, running on a Xbox 360 build (code-name: xenon). Very interesting stuff right here. I miss this OG COD games.
Imagine animating an entire set peace and then having it caned by some studio exact.
Looks so old, yet so new
RIGGS NOOOOO
Imagine if they had made a futuristic Warfare game set within the same universe as the Modern Warfare trilogy instead of making two Black Ops 3 spin-offs that had nothing to do with the overall Call of Duty timeline
Wdym by bo3 spin-offs?
HOLY MOLY WHAT OH GOD
Wtf???? This is fantastic!!!
The helmet hud is taken straight from republic commando and I love it
So this is where the groundwork for futuristic cod sprouted (specifically ghosts and aw, maybe even iw). I'm curious what would've the franchise looked like if the devs decided to stop yearly releases and give titles like ghost a chance even with the bad receptions
Do all the other missions work or is this the only one that does?
this is genuinely so cool. no idea why this got cut
Damn I would’ve loved this as a kid. Looks actually pretty cool.
I can't even describe how badly I want to play this, the wave of nostalgia for 2012 COD this gave me could've killed me lol
Ah, what could've been...
Pretty dope. I actually enjoy the rifle design with offset sight. Makes me wonder if this cod would've had questionable designs like Starfield.
Looks better than the last 4 years of COD
More like the last 10 years lol
Oh daaaammm
@@Bladez1992You dare make fun of my BO3 McDonald's zombies map experience?
The new modern warfare was very promising, but Activision decided to derail MWII and MWIII
This must’ve been what eventually became Infinite Warfare
No. This one foreshadows Ghosts (and later on Advanced Warfare) since Neversoft makes this cancelled project and the 2 COD series. Infinite Warfare took inspiration from Ghosts and AW when space conflict slowly became an acceptable gameplay for COD fanbase.
@@ak47tohyeah but infinite warfare is the one closely resembles this game. there’s a very good chance the devs at IW used NX1 for some reference
@@gavcom4060 Neversoft is not involved in Infinite Warfare. I agree it resembles a lot with this but credit still goes to Ghosts which is the first to introduce the space warfare concept, taking a lot of stuffs from here.
Put simply: Without Ghosts or AW, there'll be no IW either.
I still remember the first time i played the cod ghosts space mission and wanting a full game of it
dude this wouldve made my childhood better
so 🚀...
we just need build leak🛰️ 🌌👩🚀
asap
I can totally see why this wasn’t fully realized, especially with what it was meant to contest. But wow, from what little we got to see weapon wise I really wonder where those interesting designs went when they started IW
The game is way Better than MW3’s Campaign
Of course you would say that now. But you won't say this if it was 2010s. Because I still clearly remember all the hate for Infinite Warfare when it was first released due they said... too HALO-ish.
@@ak47tohI think he mean about mw 3 2023. MW 3 2011 have good campaign
@@erkenaralov9502 I know he's referring to MW2023. I agree it sucks. But that's the result when Activision ran out of ideas and it degenerated into the quality we had today.
It still doesn't change the fact there was huge criticism on Ghosts and IW when it was first released. Go check out the old forums and you'll see what I mean.
@@ak47tohYes I’m referring to MW3 2023’s Campaign
@@ak47toh they killed soap that's why it sucked
id do anything to be in the timeline where this launched
This should be cod 2013-2014
so much better than MW III
Is that soundtrack from the movie Unstoppable?
All these pepole in the comments talking about how disappointed they were that they never made this when this would've been completely hated by the cod community if it got announced similar to how infinite warfare did for being more futuristic
Correct.
No because Infinite warfare was announced in 2016 after franchise fatigue set in, and this likely would have released after black ops 2 instead of ghosts, or maybe even before ghosts, which was when people would have really wanted a futuristic cod game.
This was in 2011, it would literally be appreciated if actually finished
A cod game where each map is dictated by the host Planet's gravuty would be amazing.
Gotta love the idea of using chain-link fences... on the moon... where you know, you can just jump over them lmao
В какой-то параллельной вселенной, эта игра вышла и людям понравилось
В параллельной вселенной эта игра вышла вместо ghosts и получила высокие оценки от игроков и стала в один ряд с трилогией modern warfare
Truly incredible how noisy the vaccuum of space is :)
I feel like this game would have taken place in like 2024 - 2030, it would have probably connected MW OG series to Ghosts, or a prequel to Ghosts and involving the Federation in some way, it wouldve been so cool to see this game released.
We need futuristic CoDs to come back, except maybe with the advanced movement relegated to just the campaign
Dear god if you real: make them suprise drop an advanced movement game today with no seasons or skins. Make all perks and upgrades unlockable. Amen
futuristic CoDs are trash, from campaign to multiplayer
@@thepunisher6596they really weren’t, AW infinite warfare and bo3 especially are all good games
@@Enrique-wr9veyou got me until you did AW it was mad p2w and it had weapons lock behind lootboxs and samething with bo3 but at least the zombies were good doe
Our character have the US flag on the suit. While enemy have red flag and something yellow on top left.
It might be soviet. This is timeline that they didn't collapse.
Or China.
Do you think you could upload visiting hours gameplay if there is any?
I wonder how much of this was re-used for Infinite warfare.
Probably not a lot, most of these assets and animations were reused for ghosts, while infinite warfare uses its own assets.
@@Idkwhattoputhere5123 Thank you for the info mate. I should of rephrased it as, I wonder what concepts were re-used. I know IW had an assault on the moon mission that played out similarly ( also the breaking the glass segment can also be preformed in a near identical location on that moon mission )plus the introduction of zero- G gameplay in multiplayer. I've only seen this gameplay so i don't know if it goes any further than that to be fair?
Daamn, this is epic. What a pity...
Would be dope if this dropped in multiplayer went live for it
So that's where the COD13 spaceport mission came from.
THIS LOOKS AMAZING WHY WOULD THEY CANCEL IT AAAAH
This looks awesome! I really miss neversoft
This unreleased game got me more hyped up than the past 4 Call of Duty games combined.
Heck, I'd play this as is just because it looks so cool!
