Warning: The following Full Picture mission, like Hostile Competition, is only available before Celerium. Failure to complete these before the second Story mission will abort the Complete Ending walkthrough.

This functions similarly to the Black Ops 1 mission U.S.D.D., where it is more of a cutscene than a playable mission. Which is why the recommended loadout and outfit cannot be changed.

Future Homefront [2025]

Mission Details:

Before returning to base for his next combat tour, Petty Officer First Class Luke Crosby notices a large amount of activity at a known Cordis Die seminar hall in the middle of the neighborhood he and his SEAL family live in.

13:04:11, while King and Shade prepare to deploy early, and Section, Harper and Salazar train non-stop ever since they got back to base, Crosby prepares his house and gathers his bags. But just as he is about to leave home to practice shooting and mixed-martial arts before deployment, he spots more Cordis Die supporters gathering at their seminar hall than usual.

Crosby: Readying up for the combat tour. Doodle lee doo. You're all gonna die— Cordis Die...

beep phone ringing*

King: Hey, Luke.

Crosby: Hey, King. What did local law enforcement tell you yesterday when you reported Cordis Die again?

King: They said it was just a peaceful gathering. Nothing worth checking out.

Crosby: Was there a lot back then?

King: No, but even if there were, I don't think they'd care. Why?

Crosby: I'm seeing a whole lot right now. Vans pulling up dropping off serious numbers at their assembly hall. What else did they tell you?

King: "Don't spy on them."

Crosby: Yeah, I'm spying on them.

King: Alright, standard ROE (Rules of Engagement). Engage as necessary but don't raise any alarms. Call me if you need me.

Crosby: Roger that.

hangs up*

Crosby: Still four hours away from deployment. So, why not?

With his gut telling him that something that cannot be ignored is going on, Crosby readies himself, his PDW-57 and X-45 Tactical, and goes to the auditorium. It may be walking distance from there to his house, but he takes his car in case he needs a quick getaway.

PO1. LUKE CROSBY

JSOC COUNTER TERRORIST FORCE

--

The moment all Cordis Die members started going inside to have their meeting, Crosby steals an armband with their insignia on it, blends in with the people who look like him, and sneaks into the Light and Sound Control Room overlooking the hall. Inside, he locks the door, keeps the room pitch-black by leaving the light off and prepares his tactical pad for recording.

At first, they start off with opening remarks, greetings and questions on how everyone is doing. Then they deliver news that is shocking for them and concerning for the undercover DEVGRU operator.

Cordis Die Influencer: Keep fighting the good fight, friends! If the United States marks us as terrorists and starts making plans in going after us, don't worry! Because we can knock them out before the fight begins! For our smartest, bravest, most devout insiders have given us the files of the U.S. Military's finest!

Cordis Die Crowd: *cheering*

Crosby: What the fuck?

Cordis Die Influencer: With these valuable pieces of information, we can stop their "counter terrorist" plans by holding their families and friends hostage! And if they surrender and start coming for their kin, they'll be known as the biggest fools on Earth! As we'll ambush them and hunt them like the dogs they are! We will own their wives and daughters! And their sons will be the next generation for our cause! We will be filthy fucking rich baby!

Cordis Die Crowd: Yeah!

Cordis Die Influencer: We will be worshipped by our deepest desires!

Cordis Die Crowd: Yeah!

Cordis Die Influencer: And no one will be able to stop us, as when we take D.C., we will be the law! The American people's will!

Cordis Die Crowd: Yeah! Fuck the U.S. government! Fuck the U.S. Military! And fuck their families into submission! They deserve it! Whooo!

Cordis Die Influencer: For Odysseus! For vengeance! For Cordis Die!

Cordis Die Crowd: Cordis Die! Cordis Die! Cordis Die! Cordis Die! Cordis Die!

Crosby: We better play our cards right before we can flush out these traitors. God, help us.

Once the meeting ends, Crosby gets the surveillance tape of the place, heads back into the sea of "American" Cordis Die members and tails the influencer to his office backstage. Inside, he slams the group leader's head against his desk, knocking him unconscious.

Immediately, he spots the personnel files of almost everyone in DEVGRU and the U.S. Military in Virginia. As well as a map of the entire state with markings that indicate the locations of military families.

Crosby: Man, I thought seeing the women's underwear and cocaine in here was disturbing enough. These guys are seriously crazy.

With limited time to gather evidence before the influencer wakes up, he pictures the map, gathers three files and puts the body on a couch nearby. Then he heads for his car and leaves for the police department, all without firing a shot or raising an alarm.

14:10:57, he manages to get the police's intelligence unit's attention with what he found. But for all the wrong reasons as they start investigating him instead of Cordis Die.

Intelligence Sergeant: So, Crosby, when and where did you serve exactly? Syria, Afghanistan, Germany? War on Terror, War in Afghanistan, World War 3?

Crosby: Are you investigating me or the possible suspects?

Intelligence Sergeant: Oh, I thought you conservatives believed in innocent 'til proven guilty.

Crosby: Well, this should prove them guilty. Look at 'em. This is disturbing intel. And they got mountains of them behind their seminar hall. I thought any unauthorized use or possession of these military and government files are illegal.

Intelligence Sergeant: Well, they must have gotten some pretty good security clearance to get them. Cordis Die is a lot more influential than you think. And all we're seeing and hearing right now is a mere exercise of the right to free speech. Look, I know you think you're doing the right thing, being "right-wing" and all. But this isn't Syria, or Afghanistan, or Germany. And World War 3 is over. I'm sure they're not being serious and you're just being paranoid.

Crosby: *sighs* Fine, I'll take your word for it. Let me ask you something. What's the price of an entire police intelligence unit these days? Child and motherly strippers? *quietly* Stogie choking fuck.

At first the unit's team leader feels insulted, but immediately remembers who Crosby is. So he subtly shudders and orders his fellow officers to stand down as the masked DEVGRU operator leaves.

And it turns out Crosby only showed them the recording and pictures in his pad, as the files he seized are still in his car. Because they are the military records of Section, Harper and Salazar themselves.

Even though he trusted King about his claim that Virginia's police force is not being completely honest, he felt compelled to try anyway. At least he now knows personally that they cannot be trusted.

14:35:17, after returning the folders to the archives in Dam Neck Annex, which is next to Naval Air Station Oceana, he heads for the team room to prepare. Thus getting greeted by Salazar, who has just been promoted to Chief Petty Officer.

Crosby: No way! Really?

Salazar: Yeah! Section needed an official NCO team leader while Shade is gone.

Crosby: Whoa, congratulations man.

Salazar: Ah, thank you. You know, I actually vouched for you when he mentioned the possibility of someone becoming a Chief. But he and Harper trusted me more than you, apparently.

Crosby: Huh, interesting.

Salazar: Don't worry, they're probably testing you for the next one. Come on, I got some good food and drinks to celebrate.

Crosby: After you, Chief.
