Call of Duty Infinite Warfare - Retribution Design Overview - Mike Hill

[@CecilyThanador]

I absouletly adore the art design of Infinite Warfare. From the ships to the space stations and colonies: Everything blends in perfectly. It doesn't feel like super sci-fi like Star Trek or Mass Effect, but instead you see it and think, "Yeah..I can totally see that happening in fifty years."

[@juliashenandoah3965]

I am also impressed by the new Mass Effect, very realistic design of the Tempest, no stupid over-the-top sci-fi where everything consists of light plattforms and death rays and stuff like that but a very realistic and beautyfull Star Citizen like ship. The new Mass Effect and Call of Duty Infinite Warfare are the most beautyful space ship games avaiable right now, too bad that every Infinite Warfare DLC was just some Multiplayer trash and no precious single player missions or campain extensions :(

[@hazmat2625]

That's one of the reasons why I love the game. It's one of the most realistic sci-fi games I've played in a while. (Tech-wise, not gameplay-wise. I still love it though!)

[@HighTierWitches]

Really love the design of the ship. Looks like what it will be in next 100 years

[@playsoldgames]

I like Infinite Warfare designs, but mass effect works on Mass Effect.. Its a whole different physics. That's more work done on a lore than most sci fis.

[@CaptainPilipinas]

More like how it was in Halo during Humanity's Interplanetary Wars of the Sol System at the dawn of the creation of the UNS'C' (no UNS'A's here, Infinity Ward [Joked]). (For Spartans here, correct me if I'm wrong on the timeline.)

[@ChiefExecutiveOrbiter]

One of the most unappreciated games in the series. A damn shame. One of the Best COD ever!!!

[@kevinwise1997]

"Only the Navy could build a ship that was designed to sink!" That had to my favorite line in the whole franchise of Call of Duty

[@prestonquinn5232]

Honestly, same. By far the best quote.

[@ubergrendle]

Your designs and attention to detail made it a fantastic game. Loved the campaign, the technology felt futuristic but also grounded in reality. Consistent art design throughout, never noticed an incongruity. Great work.

[@chef2042]

This is actually why I wondered why they decided not to give Space Force to the Navy. Seems the most logical to me.

[@parawill7074]

@@chef2042 - Not logical at all. Space is a domain that requires a separate branch where it made sense to have it under the Air Force given how much real world control the AF had of space systems. The Navy doesn't have a strong space presence, so the logical step was to create the Space Force and place it under the AF. We are nowhere near having spaceships like you see in Sci-Fi or in Infinite Warfare, and the Sci-Fi writers have always gotten it wrong with centering everything around the Navy and Marine Corps with respect to space. It would ALWAYS have been a joint military organization under a Space Command where units from those services would be detailed or permanently assigned to the Space Command. Army and Marine Corps combat units would have been ground combat elements and carrying out the same duties as one fighting force under the Space Command because tactics in space would be entirely different than being on a planet. The Navy would also have their assets (like specially designed boats and other watercraft) on Space Command vessels where they would deploy on planets where there are oceans or large bodies of water for ships to navigate and transport troops to different areas on the planet. We (the real military) work jointly ALL THE TIME depending on the scale of the operation. For the futuristic stuff, it would always be a joint venture when talking about space operations. If we ever get to that level in the future, it would be the Space Force controlling everything and the other branches working underneath them. All spaceships, pilots, and crew, would be under the Space Force, while the other branches would provide combat and combat support elements for military operations.

[@InvictusMatrix]

​@@chef2042 They inherited a lot of Air Force stuff like satellites, which makes more sense to me than the Navy. After all, air and space have more in common than the sea and space.

[@Random_RG]

I have completed the campaign three times now........ The music broke my heart

[@Keeves.]

Honestly, infinite warfare would have been great if they made a new franchise off of it

[@HighTierWitches]

it would be great but what enemy will be? If they encounter aliens, it will be like Halo Franchise

[@christophergerber2949]

@@HighTierWitches that's why it should be another space colony rebelling. I really enjoyed the campaign for this game it was my favorite because it makes me think what the USA's military will be in the next 100 to 200 years

[@playsoldgames]

@@HighTierWitches Cryptids. The ones from Ghosts.. They had good designs too

[@SeaGLGaming]

Biggest gripe is how much IW was held down to the CoD name. The Ship Assault missions were amazing in the campaign. Imagine if there was a multiplayer mode that allowed the boarding of enemy ships. Basically could have made their own take on the space battles in the original Battlefront II. Taking a Jackal and assaulting the perimeter defenses before attacking the bridge. Filling up a Raven and assaulting the hangars. There's so much there design wise that would have made IW a huge hit for scifi games.

[@QuantumAscension1]

@@HighTierWitches It could still be the Martians, with the events taking place after the events of the first game. Most likely you'd play as Salter as you try to regain control over the Solar System. Both the UNSA and SDF fleets have been devastated, so Salter and the other UNSA forces would be desperately fighting with whatever space-based assets they have left to capitalize on their victory in orbit over Mars, Pyrrhic as it was, and strike an even more decisive blow against the SDF. Ideally, a better villian could exist in this hypothetical second game than Kotch was, cuz Kotch as the Antagonist was easily the one really bad part of Infinite Warfare.

[@valdemarsimonsen9612]

Infinite warfare might not be the best call of duty but they absolutely nailed the space theme with some amazing views, fighters and ships😍

[@ChiefExecutiveOrbiter]

It one of the bests campaigns for sure, and ghosts

[@SamA-cy8eu]

What are you talking about? Its literally the BEST COD that they've made! However due to a number of MORONIC Fans! We're back to shitty WW1 & WW2 rehashes!!!

[@AmrMohamed-lg7ty]

I extremely admire and appreciate the phenomenal attention to detail in how every part works and is created, Infinite warfare team created an unmatched piece of art in a way that it made the whole thing look and feel like a movie that is so applicable and relatable to real life maybe 100 years from now. Top respect infinite warfare team, I salute you all.

[@Xozkov]

I feel like the true potential of this world could've flourished as a new IP, not under the call of duty franchise. Such a great game and concept.

[@ricardoavacado3901]

Nah. It fits very well in the CoD IP. It's just that the community sucks ballsakc

[@JehielLyreLMalan]

I'm a CoD fan. And in my headcanon this fits in the wider CoD universe as "ok this is us in the far future". When the likes of Price, Ghost, Soap, are remembered as legends of old, discussed in history e-books proscribed to the schoolchildren - our many-times-great-descendants - of a distant tomorrow.

[@gentlemen.7621]

Seriously, the concept behind the campaign was excellent, and it was executed excellently. I wish they made a sub-franchise out of Infinite Warfare.

[@microsoftpowerpoint3039]

gentlemen. yes. please.

[@supernova5293]

Unfortunately that won’t be happening because of the sheep who misinformation about it before it was even released

[@VojtechLacina]

Love to see the process of mechanical design thinking, thanks for it!

[@MeonisRP]

Your design + this music + my memories of this game = GOOSEBUMPS on my body! :D Absolutely fantastic work!!!

[@juliashenandoah3965]

One of the best games I have ever played! U.S.S. Nimitz or U.S.S. Constallation based design for the destroyers and space gliders based on F-117 and YF-22. Such an awesome and superb game and so super-immersive, and the graphics is the best I have ever seen. I really hope they plan some expansions for this superb game with some creepy singleplayer zombie missions on abandoned creepy bases (hey the already re-made the marines drop scene from James Camerons Aliens 2 and I was really expecting some Xenomorphs on this Jupiter moon mission :D )

[@VanguardNeo]

This video is everything I ever wanted to see. I love futuristic things like suits and spaceships. Infinite Warfare and Halo have the best in my opinion.

[@petrofsko]

fantastic insight to creating such a fantastic campaign well done to all developers

[@nightraven836]

awesome attention to detail in the use of disposable rocket boosters on the SATO Jackals.

[@saitamamako7949]

The technological Enginuity of the sci-fi concept as whole from this game is breathtaking. It saddens me; we will never see real life space capable ships because we'd be dead by then. A century from now, we might see this come to life and it fills me with grief and envy. Because most of us are dead of old age and barely hanging on.

[@mobiteq8220]

[@juliashenandoah3965]

And finally the former best player "safehouse", the U.S.S. Retribution from Infinite Warfare, has been dethroned by the newest flagship of all safehouses / player bases / player ships, the fully explorable submarine EVAS HAMMER from Wolfenstein new Colossus. If you love (space) ships like I do, a superb sightseeing tour between pipes tubes valves pumps machines and computer terminals with several floors awaits..... In Infinite Warfare you can mostly run around in two rooms only (bridge and captains quarter) with no private rooms or decks or engine room to explore, but Evas Hammer is a fully explorable detailled submarine where every one of the beloved sailor comrades has his or her own cabin to check out. Pure perfection.

[@mikeless2607]

What about the olympis mons which ambushed sato like what 3 time

[@sabertx3273]

Is there anyone else annoyed by the fact that Infinite Warfare's vehicles and ships have VERY little information? Seriously I want to know more about the vehicles like the Raven, APC, Destroyers, etc; but there is no information on them, i.e. carrying capacity, armaments, and dimensions. Maybe its just me, but I feel like if you create new vehicles, you should create the specifications and lore for those vehicles as well.

[@supernova5293]

Maybe they did but never released it for whatever reason and considering the hate IW got, they probably won’t be releasing any
