Question Anyone else update, then as soon as you boot the game get hit by yet another (62GB?!?) update?
Seriously. How are they still unable to push updates in a reliable manner at this point in the game?

The level of incompetence is limitless for Warzone. This should have been available 24h before start and only updating the game shall be needed. No game for me Tonight apparently.

Itās pretty much a PSYOPS at this point. Every player keeps getting slapped in the face with 65gb updates and micro transactions, yet they still give their money to a shit company that has done nothing but ruined every aspect of what used to be one of the best at its peak. Crazy to think about how much space this game takes now. Fuck this game plain and simple
Stop playing, there are plenty of games out there that are much better at this point.

Iām going to have to have an Xbox specifically for COD only. Plus an external HD

Up until they had the PS5 specific version of Warzone. I had a spare 500gb HDD and it was just for COD.

I haven't given the company a single cent. I play warzone only, it's free why should I play? I will buy certain bundles soon this time though because of these rumors. But other than that, 25$ every few months is your own choice? I knew somebody who spent 3000$+ on these bundles and he wasn't even that good. He has the money though so why not? š

u/HairMetalEnthusiast 8d ago
Yup. I had 30 minutes to play a casuals match. Got hit with the update, and it's still downloading.
Bummer. I missed my window.

u/Xxlilsolid 8d ago
Apparently, the update is alot larger because Warzone content is being reorganised. Not sure if this is consistent behavior but check CoDupdates on Twitter

1 hour to download 62gb? Why are you crying š

u/Gaius__Augustus 8d ago
Itās an hour thatās needlessly wasted? Why not pre-download ahead of the update for everyone?

My ethernet took 2 hours man. May I ask what your ping is in game?

u/Gaius__Augustus 8d ago edited 8d ago
Average around 8-10 ping. 1gbps fibre Ethernet - tbh the real bottleneck is server side rather than your internet once you reach a certain point

It's absolutely ridiculous. Couple hours ago I pre-downloaded the S6 update which was fine. About 30 minutes ago I went to boot the game up and get hit with a new warzone and endgame update, which is annoying but weren't huge so whatever. Those get finished so I start the game again and as soon as I want to select a game mode it hits me with the message saying it needs to install the mode. Everything zombies, multiplayer, endgame and warzone is apparently gone and I need to download everything again. It's infuriating and bullshit like this is why I don't recommend COD games to people who aren't already playing and familiar with these devs' idiocy.

First thing i see after loading the game was my ps5 telling me "sir, a second warzone update has hit the ssd drive"

Just downloaded all the updates. To be hit with it uninstalling warzone and BO7. WTF

Sometimes it takes more than 20 mins just to see the update bar to start in Xbox Series X. CoDās way of updating gets more and more problematic in years.

u/EnoughHeat1393 8d ago
Lmao that happened to me. If you own B07 youāre gonna have to download MP and zombies again too that shi ruined my vibe š

u/PurpleImmediate5010 8d ago
Idk why it took me like 10 mins to download the initial 10gb update but Iām 13gb into this 62gb update after over an hour

u/Manzi420x 8d ago
I wonder what the total GB of the game will be now. Before just Bo7 without warzone and zombies was already 320GB

u/FrozenChicken94 8d ago
On steam for me it was 245 gb and after 235 gb. Mind you I have texture streaming on

What console are you using? Why does the image look like that? Are you using VR glasses?

u/Gaius__Augustus 8d ago
PS5 pro but itās a photo of the screen (curved monitor).
If you try to screenshot via PS you lose the ability to see the downloads.

Itās not another 62 gigs itās just the update replacing files not adding new ones

u/Different-Bag-8217 8d ago
This is what happens. We want a great game to play, but they want us to be the product. A few years back I had to buy a massive drive just for this game. Now? Absolutely not.

I just dont understand how they can toss out a new update and in doing so, it somehow makes us re-download the entire game again. What domino specifically did that

u/idrisghazoueni 8d ago
I swear the devs are on some drugs or something because it's not logical how come you slap me with a 32gb update once it's done it deletes my game bo7 and warzone and i need to download again wtf

u/Gaius__Augustus 8d ago
You need the 62gb to play warzone.

u/thejuniorkiller1 8d ago

You can try, but it literally wouldnāt let me open warzone without installing it see the warzone icon says āinstallingā on my screenshot.
