I think the reason the games are so big on MS Store, is because MS store installs all the language packs for the game, unlike on Steam, where you can choose what language to install for the game. Fallout 3 did that also, that’s why it’s much bigger on MS store.
Lets calculate how big the files for one language is to see if your theory is probable. 36gb microsoft version - 12gb steam version = 24gb of added "content" are the imagined language packs. I estimate that there are around 12 languages in MW2 also its easy for furrher calculations 24gb / 12 languages = 2gb per language which seems realistic, you are most probably right.
The best move that can be made is for MS/Activision to create a "Call of Duty Classics Collection", somewhat like what was done with Halo MCC. Get all the fan favorite classics from COD 4 2007 thru Ghosts 2013 all under one menu with cross play between console and PC. Also needs to include COD4 Remastered and maybe even the unreleased MW2 Remastered MP. However the most important aspect I would be looking for in this experience would be modern day security with all damaging exploits patched out, whether they be in-game cheats to gain an advantage or more malicious stuff like RAT/worm/RCE. I feel if this is done and the games back-end can be modernized, the collection could be maintained with minimal cost and effort for the extreme long term. I don't think I'd play anything else for at least a year if this comes out.
@@johnaraya3761 Personally I'd like to see all the games under one menu. That way the playerbase can be kept together to the highest levels possible. One way the install sizes can be controlled is offer the games as individual modules that can be optionally installed in the master menu. This is how the Halo MCC does it with its games and it works great!
i only bought the old cod games on steam so i can play them through plutonium & AlterWare clients with dedicated severs. the plutonium clients for World at war, BO1, BO2 and MW3. and the AlterWare client is for Ghosts, MW2, Advanced Warfare and BO3
Hello man, from what I've seen, when you connect to the multiplayer, it says: Xbox Network. So the multiplayer might be fixed but I'm not sure. Also, I hope that the Black Ops saga gets released on MS.
If they ported the games to a new version of the engine or whatever and tried to fix the rce and update security, they should do the same thing on Xbox, and natively release them on the newer Xboxs and get rid of the 360 since thats the cause of the modding issues on console, and add crossplays while theyre at it.
I don't think many people at all will buy the trilogy through the Microsoft store, on Steam they already average 70-150 players. It probably has to do with them ending their support for the games on Steam since they have already shut down all the leaderboards on every CoD for Steam only. Also, they will never make the older CoDs safe. They're too old and way too dead for them to have a reason to patch hundreds of exploits.
That's precisely my point. If the games are still unsafe and has no players, why release them on the microsoft store? Even worse, if they get added to gamepass later this would attract a lot of players who are putting themselves at risk playing.
If modders can implement a fix for older titles it won't be hard for Activision/Xbox to implement them also. The reason it's now out on Microsoft store is because Xbox now owns the rights to call of duty. It'll be out on gamespass soon enough which will bring loads of new/old players back to the game
idc for multiplayer, has anybody tried to crossplay from windows pc to xbox? im guessing it being a windows store might change so.ething or make it possible
I guess they want to add those games to Game Pass. Why woul'd they fix matchmaking issues in MW2/BO1/BO2/MW3 in Xbox? We just have to wait a little longer. I'm telling you. I'm not playing BO6 MP. Not anymore. It's trash, packed with shitty systems that want me to be mad and mess with my weapons so much... I'm playing Zombies only. It seems that Zombies are getting all the love from Treyarch... I would play older CoD's streaight away when then get dropped on Game Pass. All I want to say is that addition to Game Pass could get us a lot more players to older games.
Im telling you guys dont buy this crap. Any hopes you have of tbis being a way to safely play the great cods safely on pc , forget it right now and dont buy this crap! This is activsion were talking about ! They dont want to gi back and fix the games . They simply want your money . Adding these games to microsoft store with absolutely zero context is a deliberate scheme to get you guys talking and buying . If they did anything to the games theyd have said so
They can fix those server issues and such by making it so the game runs through steams online servers for the steam version which would allow more money and less complaining

@@ShiftyMarmot That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the info!
Thought it was more of all the dlc content added in the game

@@EliaMarc According to PCGamingWiki, officially there's 8 languages for the game.
@@ShiftyMarmot 24gb / 8 languages = 3gb per language is still reasonable, thank you for the information

@@LethalThreat Absolutely! That would be a dream come true.
wow great idea like have 1 for the MW's and have a set for bo but instead of bo3 just do waw and the bo1/2 but wow great idea shocked nobody did it

Everyone should wait on buying all these old CODs. They are going to drop them onto gamepass slowly.
They should add cross play to bo3
i really wish these games where safe to play the new cod games suck

I saw a video of the game already and they were unable to join a match since they were the only ones in the lobby
1:17 ...conspiracy theory to sell more hard drive 😂
lol

Does it have achievements?

@@lollipopomg Game Pass release. The only explanation.
You underestimate the CoD community, I bet you if they do end up fixing it up. It will sell.
For everyone wondering I just bought it on 12/17/24 for XBox Series S. It’s like 7gb. Honestly, I feel like it works, just not many players
Can you use a controller or wat
cool thanks, u think i can play some zo.bies with a sibling on the xbox while im on the pc?
It's probably a remaster with higher texture and model detail. Textures alone can increase size by 10s of gigs.
It could be BUT.. Remaster has it's own name. Remaster didn't get Multiplayer. It is 2009 game so I guess it's not a remaster.
It is probably due to language patches @@Numernabis
It’s the language packs lmao
Someone needs to buy it and test it out
Is the extra space for DLC included with the game now?
@@305backup From what I've been told, Microsoft Store downloads every language pack as opposed to steam, which explains the bigger size
They actaully upgraded mw2 to 64 bit .. thats all i know it about though since i didn't buy it and was just told that.
And they included all of the DLC, so that's another sign.
idc for multiplayer, has anybody tried to crossplay from windows pc to xbox? im guessing it being a windows store might change so.ething or make it possible
From what I've seen, there is no crossplay for the microsoft store games. They use their own servers
