Modern Warfare 3 players slam \u201cridiculous\u201d game file size ActivisionModern Warfare 3 players are questioning the need for COD HQ as the launcher menu creates \u201cridiculously\u201d large game file sizes that are only getting bigger. Modern Warfare 2 introduced Call of Duty HQ, which serves as a central hub for the series. Players use one launcher menu and, from there, go into MW2 multiplayer, Warzone, or now MW3. Activision praised Call of Duty HQ and claimed that the feature \u201cmakes it easier and straightforward\u201d to jump into Call of Duty games. However, community members share a much different view. Instead of simplifying the process, some players bashed HQ for doing the opposite. If the launcher actually did its job, they argued there wouldn\u2019t be a need for YouTube tutorials about how to access game modes. But UI issues aren\u2019t the only problems with COD HQ. The launcher raised another concern regarding Modern Warfare 3\u2019s download size. Modern Warfare 3 devs address large file size On November 2, Activision explained why the file sizes are larger than last year. \u201cThis is due to the increased amount of content available Day 1, including open world Zombies, support for item carry forward from #MW2, as well as map files for current Call of Duty: Warzone.\u201d It\u2019s not all doom and gloom, as players have the option to uninstall specific content they aren\u2019t actively playing anymore. Despite that compromise, community members still slammed HQ as the root of all problems. One player responded: \u201cCod HQ is one of the worst decisions I\u2019ve ever seen you guys make.\u201d A second user added: \u201cCOD HQ is a joke, we don\u2019t need it, we didn\u2019t ask for it, and it\u2019s making everything worse.\u201d Lastly, a third commenter argued: \u201cStop this call of duty HQ nonsense. Players hate it.\u201d It\u2019s still unclear how large the actual file size will be, but Activision\u2019s warning message has the player base concerned. All will be cleared up when the Modern Warfare 3 preloads go live.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
