SECRET CALL OF DUTY ALTERNATE ENDING FOUND 13 YEARS LATER! (Modern Warfare 3)

I heard from some people ghosts was originally supposed to be a Modern warfare game. If this theory was supposedly true.This would mean that if the cut ending was true, the ominous man at the end would probably either be the villain for the next game. Given that allegedly Ghosts was supposed to be A MW game we can suspect it to be Rorke (TO an extent). Another theory that could sort of make sense given that the asset used for the ominous man seems to be from the "Turbulence" mission. This could potentially mean that the ominous man is infact a FSO officer who was likely surveiling the entire mission,"Dust to dust", and only walked to the room only to confirm that Makarov is actually dead.

[@Mercer2024]

That wouldn't make any sense since MW3 took place in 2017 and Ghost's Odin Orbital Weapon fired on the U.S. in 2016, leading up to the present in 2026.

@@moizv4771 Had to actually look it up. Yeah, so im misremembering I guess. I feel bad since I have made this other comment on other threads. Oh well. Yeah so MW3 takes place early 2017, January, and Ghosts takes place in mid-2017. However, Odin wasn't built until 2017.. so if this universe was to be connected then this would violate SALT I and II treaties as well as a ban on space weapons which the U.S., USSR/Russia agreed to. This would make the U.S. an aggressor which is interesting. However, that leads me to ask.. why isn't this mentioned in Modern Warfare? Why isn't it mentioned that all the world's oil reserves started dwindling due to the oil field in the middle east drying up? It just makes no sense that these events suddenly happen in MW/Ghosts if they weren't mentioned prior. Plus, Infinite Warfare is canon within the Modern Warfare trilogy timeline so.. Ghosts makes no sense at that point since it would've taken years for the world to rebuild since The Federation was "the sole superpower" according to Ghosts. Either way, sure.. maybe the concept says they're connected.. but it's non-canon.

From a writer’s perspective, this scene can only be speculated as an entirely new game’s storyline happening in the same universe, not called MW4. By this point, Soap, Yuri, Ghost, Price, Sandman, Shepherd, Makarov, and Zakhaev are all dead, the stakes have been settled. You can’t write an immediate buildup to another act in the same story without nullifying the just finished climax’s payoff. In the most rational sense, it could only be the continuation to CoD Ghost or something entirely separated from the original trilogy.

That guy could be an anonymous benefactor, it was mentioned in original MW2 that makarov is "a mad dog that works for the highest bidder" could be that the shadow man was the one pulling the strings of Makarov to start WW3 and likely for profit, what's better to profit from a war than to get a psychopathic mercenary to Stoke the flames on your behalf?

The fact that Capt. Price was originally dead at the end of the series in the hidden post credit would give way to another potential MW4 but was eventually scrapped and left it as a Trilogy, made it looked like he survived as he pulled out his last smoke before the credits were rolled. For that cut content post credit to exist in the game files, clearly indicates a potential MW4 back in the day, but I think the devs decided to end it there or it was that year that the OG devs of the series were fired due to the conflict with the management and eventually having RESPAWN to be born few years later.

In my opinion, I think this was supposed to be a connection to Ghosts since that game was already being storyboarded when MW3 released. I think this scene was meant to be a sort of torch-passing to the next new storyline, since this one was wrapped up with all of the major characters dead. The reason for it being scrapped is that Ghosts ended up being a completely separate timeline and so the connection would've been total nonsense. MW4 was never really a planned thing as there's literally nowhere the story could've gone after Dust to Dust, but having a scene to tease you for the next IW storyline would've made a lot more sense. Just my theory on the cutscene.

I think it may be a hallucination where the ghost of Yuri with his costume from the no Russian mission has finally come to realize his revenge or the ghost of Zakhaev who welcomes Price and Makarov to hell as Price said to Makarov the said on mw2.

THE OG COD CAMPAIGNS WRRE LEGENDARY NEVER AGAIN WILL WE HAVE SUCH CINEMATIC GREATNESS COUPLED W THE WORK OF HANS ZIMMER THE GOAT

[@ELIZABETHMARLONE2005]

Hans Zimmer only did one of the themes in MW2 I think Bryan Tyler and Sarah Schanchner did MW3 2011, Sarah later on did IW and MW 2019 and MWII

[@XARAY10]

This could be Rorke from ghost since it's ghost takes place on 2017 - 2027

[@albihysenaj5997]

Cod ghost in its own timeline not same timeline as mw

​@@albihysenaj5997 cod ghosts was initially an mw game

[@the_air_959]

​@@albihysenaj5997i think it was suppose to set up ghosts,but remember rorke got brain wash for a full year since 2015 and started hunting since then and maybe he was trying to kill tf 141 members so they wont get in the away from killing the ghosts? Idk its just my theory

[@JeffOlley]

Why tho

[@milnez]

New versions could look back at this…

[@jstormy8168]

Just glad to know that what I always thought happened with price smoking his last cigar is truly how MW3 ended.

[@charliefontana1821]

What we need is the old devs that know about it to come out and talk about it

[@ME262MKI]

Seeing Price dropping the cigar at the end was quite sad 😢

[@TheBountwix]

Super cool video. Thanks for sharing. As an old cod fan, this means alot to me.

[@IVIALL0Y]

absolutely INSANEEE!!!! Makes you wonder what else we havent found yet...

[@Sleepylevi]

This all feels so surreal. As if its something we were never supposed to see. A mw3 ending from an alternate universe where mw4 happened.

[@IAmSirZak]

Totally makes me view even the cannon ending way differently. What an amazing find!

[@JesusOrDestruction]

I actually like makarov being the final villain. The trilogy ended perfectly

[@efficiencygaming3494]

If the "Shadow Man" is someone who's already been shown previously, my mind goes to one of two people: 1. Anatoly (the ambulance driver at the end of "No Russian"). He is never seen afterwards and there is nothing to indicate he is dead. 2. Alejandro Rojas. Yes, the player has the option of executing him, but his ultimate fate is unknown. Perhaps keeping him alive was the canon option and he was saved by Brazilian Militia members after Task Force 141 left. Also, it would actually make sense for him to be there considering he was an arms dealer for Makarov.

[@nathanjones411]

It really make sense that Anatoly was the one there. Afterall he save Makarov ass back in MW2

[@juliovilla3836]

Nikolai? I mean he’s the only main character who hasn’t died and was a big part of the trilogy. Checking up either on Price or to make sure makarov is dead.

[@KuchBhi-xs5oe]

Nikolai ain't bald he can be someone from either Russian agent or American or can be one of Ultranationalist who somehow survived the assault and knowing that all TF-141is dead the Ultranationalists can continue with their plans or can be just price's hallucination

[@itztrixim]

That audio and someone appearing in the background tilting their head genuinely gave me chills. I would like to speculate it was ghost who survived as in a mission based in London, Sgt. WallCroft, is voiced by the same actor as ghost. I’ve always considered ghost was secretly out for revenge.

[@goolish_lore]

this finally confirms my suspicions that price doesn’t make it out of the hotel been thing this for years

[@bossdogtx]

Wow rest in peace captain price. That was probably the saddest ending I never wanted to see.

[@averylr32]

they cut it along with lack of SBMM in MW3 no wonder the game was so good although i still have PTSD over the garbage lag comp that was in that game

[@ELIZABETHMARLONE2005]

MW3 had SBMM and also it wasn't half the game COD 4/ MW2 was

[@ki11atj49]

In your opinion it was just as good maybe MW2 was more fun but I had a lot of fun on MW3 as well ​@@ELIZABETHMARLONE2005

[@averylr32]

@@ELIZABETHMARLONE2005 I’ll agree mw3 was cheeks especially the lag comp

[@K1NG0FW0LV35]

This was lowkey a fitting end for Price.... He notices a ominous shadowy figure in his final moments that could possibly be another foe... but his conciousness fades as they leave... I could just imagine what Price is thinking in those moments as he relished his victory with one final smoke.... "Ah.... sod it.... Its someone else's problem now.... I got my pounds of flesh...."

[@Kurdzo]

It may have been a placeholder character model as you can’t see him anyway other than mods

[@octave772]

hopefully this plot point will get some light shed on it, like even just a glimpse of what modern 4fare would have been

[@ahappyicebeargaming9402]

Captain price killed a double, and that's the real Makarav walking away

"Ah.... Captain Price, in the flesh... I took the liberty of removing your cigar, as this is a... Non-smoking establishment."

After seeing this, i cant look at OG MW3 campaign the same anymore. I really wanna know wtf is going on now

[@aDevilsDeal]

I can remind hearing rumours back then of possible campaign dlc, that would have covered Prices court trial.... Perhaps it would have been encompassed into mw4

[@sircuffington]

I'm almost positive that Ghosts was always called MW4 by waiting fans before it's release, which I believe caused a part of the disappointment. Either way, it would explain it pretty well.

[@Zahuizima21]

6:36 Price had a SAW IV moment that shock was enough to kill him he recognized shadowman someone who couldnt believe dangerous as Makarov

[@kevinmurker8980]

This Makarov was way scarier than the one in MWIII (2024) I don't think that could be Yuri, because he was severely injured during the helicopter attack.

[@benn0-d8n]

This ending is so cool and ereey, Such a shame it got cut
