Downloading ONLY MP
Hey guys, I'm not sure this is possible. But I didn't want to download SP so I went into the DLC tab and unchecked it, so I wouldn't have to download 47GBs and SP which I'm never going to be playing. Will it work on MP only (And zombies) right? Or it won't work cause the game has to go through the SP menus?

Yes you can. Go to your steam library and pull up Blops 3.

You should see 3 dlc (plus more if you have them)

Campaign
Zombies
Multiplayer

Simply uncheck Campaign and Zombies and it will uninstall both of those games from Blops 3.

Yes, this is what I do since I am not interested in campaign or zombies, and just check multiplayer and you only download that part of the game.

WARNING HOWEVER: This was all fine until I wanted to play with a friend, he invited me and everytime I accepeted I got an error saying "cannot join a campaign lobby without campaign being installed" or something along those lines. He was trying to invite me to a normal mp lobby.

So I proceeded to download the huge singleplayer file, ask friend to invite me again, then i got the same error but about zombies!!! FFS lol.

So I continued to download zombies, and invited me again and finally I got put into the party.

I mean what a nightmare, wasted HD space of part of the game I will never play.

Absolutely not, because multiplayer/zombies/campaign re-use game assets.
The files are shared between modes.

Same thing happens, because I don't have singeplayer or zombies installed, he can't join my party.

Shared files are part of the base installation. You do not need zombies or campaign to play multiplayer, nor do you need multilplayer to play campaign.

So is it possible to download MP only? If so, what's the size on disk?

Same here, I wanted to deinstall SP after playing trough just for save space on the ssd but if you can´t join friends in MP it would be awful !
