yeah that was my first thought the only thing is not sure if the point of this version was to fix the exploit or not my guess is no cos activision but yeah
@@Moli05 There is no excuse for wasteful storage usage and video games of all things should not make people waste more money on storage hardware. Especially when everything else costs so much these days, that's 2024 for you.
The games use seperate multiplayer servers to the OG versions, because those versions are hacked to shit. The reason no one is on the new servers is because barely anyone knows about this new re-release because they didn't announce it
@@Wierie_ Saying COD was dying before xbox killed it is wrong, but now i understand --on a second note, even with a decent player base M$ just completely fucked the servers so it's unplayable that's why it's dead
People have been saying "Call of Duty is dying" since I was in high school and now I'm turning 30 in a few months. Considering the steady playercounts and consistent sales alongside ballooning MTX revenue, I doubt it is going anywhere.
In their MW2 it's worth noting that it says "XBox Network" where it normally says "IWNet", unless I'm mistaken. But then you would expect some crossplay stuff. They could really not have done a worse job with how they've "preserved" the franchise over the years. The definitive versions are the community clients.
The only sort of crossplay they could do is Microsoft store to Xbox app with PC game pass, cause the console games are too full of hackers, not to mention 360 servers are too old to incorporate crossplay in general. Microsoft would need to port the games to new servers and get rid of the 360, like they did with Halo and made the MCC for example.
It never ceases to amaze me how incompetent and arrogant Microsoft have been with their storefront. Not only has every flavor of it been a buggy, broken mess but forcing player segregation between the Microsoft Store and Steam versions of games like Halo Wars DE and 2, Killer Instinct (until recently) and now CoD is just asinine to me. They lost this battle over a decade ago and yet they refuse to just throw in the towel. Truly tragic.
It's all by design, everything has to be corrupted and destroyed so you are unburdened by what has been before... They know what they are doing. They are anti humanist monsters. There is a bigger picture
What a refreshing video! Thanks again, algorithm! Especially when you clipped in the Crash map, it kicked me right back into 2008. Oh boy, it really never gets old. Good times!
So I believe the bigger install size is for two reasons 1: the games are 64 bit now on the ms store 2: it forces you to download ALL THE LANGUAGE PACKS instead of letting you pick
Holy shit I was starting to think I was the only one that thought microsoft might have bought cod just to kill their competition. Like how is a game that makes infinite money so poorly made?
I discovered the racing game Wreckfest has the same issue. The GamePass/M$ Store version cannot crossplay with other versions of the game. The game was originally released in 2018, and it got a final update in March 2024 to support cross-play between Steam, GoG, and EGS versions. No M$ Store/Gamepass version was mentioned.
They could be adding these to later feature them in the Gamepass, just like they did with Black Ops 6. Nevertheless stills kind sucks that they split the community between Steam and Xbox servers. Though it would be awesome if they took the time and fixed the RCE exploits of the older Call of Duty multiplayers.
the large install size is due to download files containing all localized versions of the game on every language (not localized audio files), for this exact same reason fallout 3 on microsoft store is 40 gb in size mw2 multiplayer on steam is playable, but not recommended, due to rampant RCE exploits that plague all old CoD games on PC also, microsoft store version of MW2 is probably using separate servers, due to it saying "xbox network" instead of "iwnet"
It's super weird that they've done this, even weirder that it's not a 1:1 CRC match with the Steam versions. (At least that would give people more ways to get the games and play on the custom clients) But no, they went through all this effort just for no one to play. I'm pretty sure Halo Custom Edition still has more people playing, it certainly has more servers open at least.
I guess if the build tools are also running in 64-bit then it *could* explain the file size difference with cases like using the standard "int" keyword to define data that gets written to files during the build process. However I highly doubt this would make anywhere as much of a difference as what we're seeing. Also it was absurd to have Ghost remain full price since launch but seeing it full price again on the microsoft store is just laughable. Dlc is still a separate purchase, except now you can only buy the entire season pass together for 10$ less than the game itself. Another laughable pricetag is MW3 at 53.99 CAD for the base game and 80.99 for the DLC, or MW2 for 26.99 with a 39.99 DLC.
Agreed with the other comment, the glitching is completley unnesseccary and annoying by the end of the video. otherwise great content! I really like your style
It is seriously so sad. I was expecting Microsoft to understand, take a look at their games on console and see that if they're merging Xbox with Windows/Steam versions of the games, they should switch to matchmaking instead but no they just made a dead Call of Duty 4 Client nobody will buy...
it's funny cause I was so excited to join the PC master race to play future cods (starting at the MW2 reboot, MW seemed great on M+KB) & I haven't been playing as much as I used to. IW4X was fun for the moment it was alive. I know activision won't explain or get rid of their intense SBMM matchmaking to protect the garbage players. I've always wondered why tho, I used to get stomped on cod4 & it still retained play-ability for me.
I appreciate the time and money you put in to test these for us! I was actually hella curious about them myself :3 As others have mentioned, the edits make this pretty difficult to watch through.. but I respect the artistry you showed off trying it out. We live and learn haha
The problem being there’s 15 years’ worth of servers there should be no reason to cut off contact from in the first place. Microsoft keeps doing this with Windows Store releases and the games never get off the ground as a result
@@lostsaves If Microsoft has made dedicated servers for these games and they are separated from Steam it is a good thing. People haven’t played a lot of these old CoDs on PC because they were not safe to play on Steam.
It's the patents. The patented rigging software that profiles youre psyche state in mm to sell you skins, modifies all data in real time created by your processor, and effectively rigs the game.. They are putting the patented software that is a lot more finalized now as compared to when they first started working on it in 2009 into the new versions on the ms store. That's why the file sizes are different.
I've heard a lot of things that CoD does actually do to rig your game experience but this one right here is just way too far, how tf will a game "profile your psyche state in mm to sell you skins" how does that even work?
The games are ass and rigged after 2018, the old ones are hacked on PC and are not really safe, Microsoft buying CoD just made it worse...WTF is going on??? 💀💀💀
no body likes the microsoft store lmao, but yeah all these games just work on windows 10/11 i have zero issues running the games, also it shouldnt surprise anyone i been telling people microsoft owning activision is a bad thing microsoft always shut down studios, original disc version of the pc version was on a dvd
If they just added controller support and fixed the security problems, these games would print infinite money. I don't understand why they seemingly have no desire to fix this shit.
I mean… I’d have no reason to assume they magically broke the LAN modes and how many people are hoping to do CoD1/2/4 LANs in 2024 that don’t already have the games?
@ for WAW I don’t know why but maybe just maybe it has to do with running out of steam keys or something again I’m not an expert at computer talk I just own the dvds on ps3
It was, in fact, Nintendo who killed them because they weren't in the best terms to put it mildly. When Microsoft bought them the main ppl at Rare had left/ were about to leave. Sea of Thieves, which is an excellent game, is the most played Rare game ever.
no hate but due to these glitch fx and its sounds, it was so stressful to watch this video.. half of these fx would have been enough, but I enjoyed the video though Thumbs up :)
lol downloading a game from 2007 is not weird at all. In fact my copies of COD 4 and MW2 are still on my steam account from back then. been using steam since 2005.
As are mine and I still play regularly. Steam was around then. The part I said was weird was downloading them from the modern Windows Store not made for them
Call of Duty died well before the Microsoft acquisition, the old games are so infested with cheaters you might as well not play them and the MW2019 and beyond games have been horrible regardless.
COD 2 and Classic have been empty since wayyy back in the day when gamespy closed, so it’s not surprising that they didn’t patch it out unlike.. the other ones which is odd. But the way they handled these ports are absolutely unordinary, coming out of left field…
The servers have been dead. Mw2 on pc doesnt work at all and cod 4 has fake players. Its hard to notice at first, but in the cod 4 lobbies theyre all fake players with real looking names, they even type generic shit in the chat to make them look real. When you watch the kill cams you'll notice.
@lostsaves it was broken for years. Aiming was tied to ping and all the servers had terrible ping. I actually just downloaded it and played for an hour and it worked. Mine didn't connect to Xbox like yours though
There’s still a small community in cod4. The bots are the ones with zero ping. It’s usually half bots half real players. But there’s servers that fill up every day during certain hours.
Microsoft (Xbox) sucks, so I'm not surprised by these lazy ports. Also, the Microsoft Store is one of the worst stores I've ever used. AUR / Pacman is much more advanced (even as community software without enough funding to thrive) and I'm not exaggerating.
Steam is the best place as CoD 2 has always worked no extra download needed only issue I had is it stopped launching, all I had to do was turn my mic on then it launches and it doesn't even need to be active when in game the mic just needs to be plugged in (Kinda wish CS would only launch if you have a working microphone connected), Either way I can usually find a server on CoD 2 if I'm playing at a regular time same with WaW I did have to download something for CoD 4 but it has servers active 24/7 from what I can see plus you can find an empty bot lobby grind the M14 and G3 to red tiger lmao. Wrote this before the full video so glad I know about IW6x always enjoyed hopping on MW2 even tho I wasn't the biggest fan when it first came out now I wish they could shit out half the quality of that game that stopped being updated pretty quickly since the Devs and Activision had their dispute
It’s not my favorite place, but I’m not the idiot who decided the world’s questions and answers should be hosted on a single point of failure and the diverse forums/fan sites should all eventually be shut down. Sometimes the thing you find only shows up in search results via a Reddit page. I could have also not used windows, but for this video it was required to cover these
That’s not true at all. First, they’re not updated. These are the vanilla launch versions of the games. Secondly, both CoD4 and MW2 could be run upwards of 250FPS without issue. MW3 originally had a hard cap of 90FPS but community mods unlocked that years and years ago. Regardless these are not updated and include no such fixes.
Lets say they come to pc gamepass,,, then the steam and ms store is heavily segregated. And even then why not just use the *cough *cough the or "legit" method on the community clients that also have custom plugins and scripts. My wish list for the ms store version is not only the steam versions get patched but give us 64bit so games can utilize more then 4gb of ram and on top of that if they didnt break the mod support on the older titles it will allow the engines to be pushed farther. I know black ops 1 was severely limited and so was black ops 2 with modding mostly because those engines already hit most limitations. Also curious how they will habdle black ops 3 since it has steam workshop support. Does having gamepass prevent you from mods!?!. Also im not very familar with the ms store but far as im aware you cant pick and choose what parts of the games you want to install. So if i dont want campaign in black ops 3 or what ever game do i have to download the full thing?
@Jordabrz ghost campaign was a master piece I usually love the cod campaigns but bo3 ruined it for me I'm usually a single player guy when it comes to cod
@BirdsTheWerd didn't play the campaign but back in 2014-2015 I played ghosts multi-player & had a feeling it would be the last CoD that had the true cod4-bo2 feel, I was right ✅️ 😢 bo3 was good but everything since has been a joke
The only reason they added it to MS Store is to add it on Game Pass for PC. Enjoyers will enjoy, haters will hate. Also, the multiplayer will at least be alive with real people so that’s an advantage. CoD ain’t gonna die if Xbox adds it to PC Game Pass, it will increase the Game Pass subscribers by a lot. People want games, companies want profit… Just buy it from other sources or straight up pirate it if you’re that salty…
>Spends video comparing to existing copies where the community has spent the past 15 years keeping the games alive "haters will hate" Boy, game brand loyalty really rots the brain, huh?
@@FelinePlays "If you hate Xbox that much" Who said anything about hating? And what salt are you referring to in the original comment? It seems you're the one with the big feelings, not me. I investigated a weird version of the game and made a funny video about it. Why are YOU so upset by me pointing out basic facts about the games? You okay? Need to go for a walk? Or talk to someone?
There are still communities for these old games, and for good reason, they are timeless. Every cod now is made to be played until a new one releases, they are made to be sold and only sold, not enjoyed.
@ no they did not. I know this because all my saves are still there from 5 years ago. Most likely because I disabled auto upload. Or choose for it to be local only. RUclips actually does something very similar if RUclips channels go inactive. You’re account get deleted after a bit of time
I had all of my local copies deleted, as did a ton of people in the replies to my video on this. They’re gone. We never chose to delete them, we all assumed they’d still be there. Wiped. Gonezo. No way to recover.
I’m pretty sure he’s just simplifying things for… some reason I can’t think of yet Since Activision owns Call of Duty, and now XBOX owns Activision, I think it’s pretty fair to just say it as XBOX simply buying Call of Duty. Especially given that CoD is basically their flagship series at this point.

Size difference can easily be attributed with the fact that the downloads probably contain all the audio languages, which the DVDs on 360 did not.

Wait when it releases on Game Pass

Better to play the old CoD games through xbox back compat
Well Xbox has completely lost me as a customer this year, so I shall just enjoy CoD4X/IW4X if I want the old experience.
Depends on the game, half of them are still fucked with hackers.
Servers are hacked/cheated AF though, at least you aren't getting malware like with the Steam versions. Else just play with Plutonium/IW clients.

Wrote this before the full video so glad I know about IW6x always enjoyed hopping on MW2 even tho I wasn't the biggest fan when it first came out now I wish they could shit out half the quality of that game that stopped being updated pretty quickly since the Devs and Activision had their dispute
>windows store
>reddit in background
yea ok no thanks
Oh no, I looked up a game fix for a bug I was having in another game how horrible
@@lostsavesstill could’ve not used reddit is what op is saying
It’s not my favorite place, but I’m not the idiot who decided the world’s questions and answers should be hosted on a single point of failure and the diverse forums/fan sites should all eventually be shut down. Sometimes the thing you find only shows up in search results via a Reddit page.
I could have also not used windows, but for this video it was required to cover these
@@redalertsteve_oh my god shut up who cares what he had un backround
They had to update the game so it would play on a modern computer as high fps on these games breaks them
That’s not true at all. First, they’re not updated. These are the vanilla launch versions of the games. Secondly, both CoD4 and MW2 could be run upwards of 250FPS without issue. MW3 originally had a hard cap of 90FPS but community mods unlocked that years and years ago.
Regardless these are not updated and include no such fixes.
bro never locked his fps to 125 or 333 for bounces and it shows
Lets say they come to pc gamepass,,, then the steam and ms store is heavily segregated. And even then why not just use the *cough *cough the or "legit" method on the community clients that also have custom plugins and scripts.
My wish list for the ms store version is not only the steam versions get patched but give us 64bit so games can utilize more then 4gb of ram and on top of that if they didnt break the mod support on the older titles it will allow the engines to be pushed farther. I know black ops 1 was severely limited and so was black ops 2 with modding mostly because those engines already hit most limitations. Also curious how they will habdle black ops 3 since it has steam workshop support. Does having gamepass prevent you from mods!?!. Also im not very familar with the ms store but far as im aware you cant pick and choose what parts of the games you want to install. So if i dont want campaign in black ops 3 or what ever game do i have to download the full thing?
cod started going downhill in 2015
Ghosts was the last real CoD 🎉
@Jordabrz ghost campaign was a master piece I usually love the cod campaigns but bo3 ruined it for me I'm usually a single player guy when it comes to cod
@BirdsTheWerd didn't play the campaign but back in 2014-2015 I played ghosts multi-player & had a feeling it would be the last CoD that had the true cod4-bo2 feel, I was right ✅️ 😢 bo3 was good but everything since has been a joke
@@Jordabrz infinite warfare campaign is also really good
And the zombies mode is fun with friends
@@Jordabrz I don't play the pvp modes like with mw2/3 I played spec ops ghost I played extinction
It's time for it to go ngl
Beyond cringe
Cod was dead long before Microsoft bought it
Wait for when they release on Game Pass, you premature.
Cod4 was missing the skill based matchmaking where you hit marker someone 5 times with an m16
This game deserves to die, so i am happy :D
I had fun watching this
*microsoft
The only reason they added it to MS Store is to add it on Game Pass for PC. Enjoyers will enjoy, haters will hate. Also, the multiplayer will at least be alive with real people so that’s an advantage.
CoD ain’t gonna die if Xbox adds it to PC Game Pass, it will increase the Game Pass subscribers by a lot. People want games, companies want profit…
Just buy it from other sources or straight up pirate it if you’re that salty…
>Spends video comparing to existing copies where the community has spent the past 15 years keeping the games alive
"haters will hate"
Boy, game brand loyalty really rots the brain, huh?
@@lostsaves Yeah well buy those existing “alive” copies of CoD and play if you really hate Xbox that much. That’s what I wrote on the last line.
@@FelinePlays "If you hate Xbox that much"
Who said anything about hating? And what salt are you referring to in the original comment? It seems you're the one with the big feelings, not me. I investigated a weird version of the game and made a funny video about it. Why are YOU so upset by me pointing out basic facts about the games?
You okay? Need to go for a walk? Or talk to someone?
Nobody cares about 20 year old games just let it go it doesn’t kill CoD
A lot of people care about these old games, especially since CoD nowdays is just garbage in comparison
“Nobody cares about this thing tons of people keep talking about”
There are still communities for these old games, and for good reason, they are timeless. Every cod now is made to be played until a new one releases, they are made to be sold and only sold, not enjoyed.
Yep
ppl don't appreciate the watch dogs 2 effect 🤣
Fire vid
it’s the platform company that deletes everyone’s recordings and screenshots
YUP
They only delete you XBL stuff. Not the ones you didn’t upload. Just stop uploading everything you record and screenshot. Be picky
Incorrect. They deleted clips and screenshots from local Xboxes too
@ no they did not. I know this because all my saves are still there from 5 years ago. Most likely because I disabled auto upload. Or choose for it to be local only. RUclips actually does something very similar if RUclips channels go inactive. You’re account get deleted after a bit of time
I had all of my local copies deleted, as did a ton of people in the replies to my video on this. They’re gone. We never chose to delete them, we all assumed they’d still be there. Wiped. Gonezo. No way to recover.
Do your research. Xbox bought Call of Duty? Oh man...
I’m pretty sure he’s just simplifying things for… some reason I can’t think of yet
Since Activision owns Call of Duty, and now XBOX owns Activision, I think it’s pretty fair to just say it as XBOX simply buying Call of Duty. Especially given that CoD is basically their flagship series at this point.
Yeah very obvious jump that doesn’t take much thinking to understand…
