    This video depitcs all cutscenes and audio recordings with Jonathan Irons, the main antagonist in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare and is played by Kevin Spacey.
    After the death of his son Will Irons, Jonathan Irons had become obsessed with power and vengeance against anyone who he blames or anyone who stands in his way, including the governments that hired his company. Irons' menacing nature is further seen when he executed a man and let thousands of people to die for personal gain and in order to improve Atlas' public image. He defended these acts by stating that he sacrificed those innocent people. Even in his last moments, Irons felt no remorse for the innocent deaths and died a power-hungry madman who believed he could solve the world's problems, and that he could save mankind from inevitable destruction.

      I kind of share his mentality. I live in a third world country, and i have seen first hand the ineptitude of the government of my country to solve problems such as violence and poverty for over 3/4 of a century by now. If there would be someone here as determined as him to solve all the problems of my country, with *his* power, i would ally with him inmediately.
      I dont really agree with the details of this mentality, especially with the part of being obssesed with controlling everything, or with that of that the costs will always outweigh the results, wich is not always true. But i agree with the idea of that governments should be more efficient and organized.

    Some of the most successful military campaigns succeeded simply because no one ever imagined it was possible.
    Probably the best line in the entire game out of the intelligence scenes because its 100% correct. Case in point, Germany's attack on France in 1940. The British and French anticipated the Germans to attack in the same fashion as they did during World War I: An advance via Belgium and Holland. What they didn't anticipate was that the Germans would attack using massed armor as the spearhead of the assault through an area that they believed was impassible for tanks to move through (The Ardennes forest). As a result, it led to a large encirclement of Allied forces in Belgium & Northern France in less than two weeks and the fall of France four weeks later.

Atlas is still a corporation which needs customers, and killing millions of your customers doesn’t seem like something that would help with your brand reputation. It would bring down everything he’s built, even if his goal was no longer profit.
      He ended the government’s monopoly on force and got paid handsomely for doing so, so his actions are completely illogical. Atlas became a reliable option when your own government failed. But I don’t think anyone wants to publish a story where a corporation is actually the good guy.

    Advanced Warfare is a missed opportunity as a result of a stupid plot twist...The concept that a company becomes part of UN is refreshing and this idea should be explored...Even if they wants a plot twist, they can have a double plot twist. For example it is other countries that turned Mitchell against Irons...

      Alfred Wang To be honest, then say that advanced warfare could have focused more on the war with North Korea or China since it would be a relevant conflict.

    The plotline of Advanced Warfare is still one of the more reasonable ones on all of the series, ironic that its futuristic theme is ridiculed so much

    Still kindof hard to believe this game came out in 2014. 2014-2015 was like a peak for game development for some reason.

      I had the same thought. When i saw the trailer for advanced warfare i was suprised that a game like this had almost realistic characters graphics

    Advanced warfare has the exact same story as MW 1,2&3 condensed into a single campaign and I love it.
