Boy, we're not living in the 90s anymore! Even if your made up number was true, I wouldn't care. Even a 4TB NVME with PCIE-4 is very cheap. If you can't afford it, don't play the game.

True, looks like we have to get used to >150GB this decade. Next thing will be NVMEs being required. My NVME is about 20x faster (8000 MB/s) than my SSDs (420MB/S). Makes kinda sense...

LMAO.

In all honesty, none of CoDs should ever take so much storage in the first place. Smells like the developers have yet to hear about compression. For instance, audio files aren't necessary to keep in a lossless audio codec, when there are efficient audio codecs that would save so much space, that'll keep the audio quality pretty much identical.

In context of audio files, a lot of games, including those that use Unreal Engine, compresses audio to Ogg Vorbis, which is the best imo. I wouldn't be surprised if the devs still uses uncompressed .wav files for audio.

Audio, textures, images, videos... It's like the devs are learning to make games for the first time. Obviously making games is hard, but they don't know the difference between hard work and a practical one.

I'm certain that even interns know what compression is, and still utilise compression. So, I'm under the impression that the entire Call of Duty development studios are ran by a greedy CEO, while the rest are a bunch of no-experience toddlers, which sums up a lot of AAA game studios, software studios (ahem, Microsoft), and much more.

That's with every single CoD game installed under CoD HQ installed, you're not forced to have all 300+gb installed.

So can you delete COD 2 and 3 and just DL BO6? After all, none of the other stuff carries over, correct?

Usually, such issues start with bad management, which led by bad decision making. I'd say that some companies, both indie and AAAs, have also terrible development ideology as a whole, putting priority on content and marketing over bug fixing and optimization, as well as the implementation of QoL features. Many new games suffer from the "release now, fix later" phenomenon. Some companies even have the courage to fully release their games after a period of early access, whilst the games are not even remotely ready.

Funny, I would prefer it be 300 gigs, it's actually 70 but online only. Potentially the worst decision they're slipping under the rug of a decent looking game, I hope Treyarch, Microsoft and Acti rot in hell

Yeah, some CoD download sizes are huge... such unoptimised crap..

How are new CoDs so heavy when they are just copypastes of previous titles?

Because the devs don't compress the files. It's like eating something overcooked but trying to ignore the taste or smell.

Not only that – it seems like they deliberately make the files bigger. Or maybe it's a side effect of using a gazillion layers of obfuscation + anticheat/DRM. (Or both?)

Thankfully, the 309 GB is with MW2, 3, and BO6 fully installed with warzone, it looks like the game will be 149gb if you don't already have warzone installed. It will be 78 if you do. Just going off of what I see on the COD website.

Took them 4-5 years to learn optimization 💀
