Prepare for the latest Call of Duty season with a recap of everything you need to know before launch and file sizes for both Black Ops Cold War and Warzone updates across all platforms.
I just don't understand where it is coming from. It's only one map ffs. Where else is the space from? Sound, weapons, characters? That can't be, other games don't have this problem.
They don't optimize the game or the updates because they rather pay the devs to make battlepass skins. Cold War is the buggiest cod i have seen in a while. Xclusive ace did a video about the lag and latency in multiplayer and he concluded it was because of SBMM. He says in older games they looked for the best match based on ping but now they search based on the best skill matchup the algorithm can come up with so you can get put in a game with shit latency even though it's a dedicated server. Every update seems to break something else.
I guess they’re going to be sailing us keys to unlock the game you installed in the HDD/SSD like the PC 🤦🏿 🤷🏿 Whatever happened to full games in the physical version, now you have “games patches “ close or bigger than the game day one
Hell at this rate, PS5 won't be able to handle the next big update after this one either. Activation really needs to figure out compression techniques, because there is no reason for this kimd of bloating.
I really wish I could choose not to download Warzone on the PC version. They finally gave us the option of choosing specific components to download, as opposed to downloading everything. But it only goes as far as "Do you want single player AND multiplayer? Or only one?" and that "multiplayer" is a package deal. You can't download just the standard multiplayer stuff. I'm not sure why...
It's really frustrating, and Activision needs to find some way to compress things better. I know it's been a theme of past console generations for the games to start taking up more and more space, but Activision is taking it WAY too far.
Not to mention the concern that the next-gen consoles so far have left way too much to be desired in terms of storage space. Considering the ballooning size of games nowadays, there's no excuse for the consoles to come in less than a couple terabytes of usable storage. SSD storage is cheaper now than ever before. We're no longer living in a world where it costs hundreds of dollars for significant storage. Manufacturers need to not cheap out on this stuff.
They must have changed it, but if you Google "change install warzone", the highlighted result is a numbered list of how to do it, and it says, "Uncheck the content you wish to uninstall. (WARZONE CANNOT BE UNINSTALLED.) Campaign. Multiplayer. Special Ops. Survival. Select Confirm." (capitalization for emphasis)
Unfortunately I wasn't able to check if it changed because I can't actually find Modern Warfare on Battle Net. Only Black Ops 4 and Cold War. Not sure what's going on there. But to clarify, I am talking about Modern Warfare, not Black Ops Cold War. Just in case that needed clarification.
Edit: Hilarious. Modern Warfare is now basically accessed from "Warzone" on Battle Net. I tried installing it just now and it still has the issue. I can't install it without installing Warzone. So I'm not sure what you're talking about unless Cold War is different.
@jairusmonillas is just a fanboy who likes to troll. Don't feed the troll.
The logical answer here would be, all next-gen consoles suck for storage. One has proprietary expensive drives, and the other one has no expandable storage right now and no cold storage options.
That's right change the goal post. Last time I checked the ssd for series x cost 220 which I'm pretty sure of since I bought one and the ps5 and series x cost 499. Not sure where you went to school but those ARE NOT the same price. I understand you can't argue facts so you need to inflat your point but just stop it makes you look like a ridiculous fanboy.
even if with 500gb it can still install warzone unlike PS4 that have stupid limitation it needed 2x remaining space to install games something that i hope they get rid in PS5 but sadly it still there.
That's ridiculuos for just a game that its premise is to kill , die and respawn.
I would be interested to know how many gigs of it is paid addon content like skins...
At this rate, it will soon struggle to fit on the next-gen consoles too.
LOL. Activision cares not about your drive. Cannot be bothered to optimize.
Shrink your damn file sizes geez. Activision are ridiculous
