I've said for a while now that none of the games in the last 10 years would have got a Nintendo gold seal. Downloadable patches, tight deadlines and big money have pushed devs into get it out there and maybe fix it later cycles.
it is crazy though 70 million players, yes most free, but loads of kids spunking loads on add ons, they must be making billions, yet can't even be arsed to test stuff before release.

I’m on Xbox and can’t play multiplayer. It fills the lobby, says loading level, then crashes to main screen with the specific map error.

Time for uninstalling I think.
I had the same and found a way to sort it on Reddit and it seems to have fixed it!

Yep they must be making a fortune on battle pass and weapon packs...

I guess bugs are unknown so how do you test for it... but they seem to become clear almost instantly fter every update so you'd think they should catch more than they do.

When I turned it on yesterday I had to do the same install again. Did that. Played a few games. Then randomly when I got downed and as soon as it went full kill my PS5 hard crashed. Quit to menu and fired it back up. Same 27gb copying. Then when that finishes it bumps up another 10gb or something.

I'm going to have to try reinstalling I think.

Fixed mine by installing both campaign packs.

Yep on main menu hit R3 and download the packs they deleted at the last update.

Thank you. That worked for me.

Insane someone had to figure it out though!

Everytime I want to start it now it has to copy 27GB odd of data before starting. Not very convienient having to launch it 30 mins before playing.

Hoping it'll either fix itself or I'll delete the whole lot (after backing up saved data) and reinstall hoping it's got a "save to the HDD" option rather than this.
I've had the same and found a fix online if anyone else suffering.

Download the Campaign Pack 1 and Campaign Pack 2 and it seems to have fixed it. Absolute horse st from COD developers though, putting together a bullst fix that causes more issues.

I've heard this fix on the Internet but it doesn't work for me. I can delete the game (even did a database rebuild and factory reset) then put the disk in and install the 5 add ons it needs. There are no campaign packs in the list of 5 available add ons. There's 3 multiplayer and 2 data packs. When all this is done some several hours later, I run the game and it immediately tries to add a 34GB add on which then gets stuck in a loop. I've tried everything. I've had to download the free Warzone game just to get playing with my mates but I miss the multiplayer. I have a new SSD drive coming at the end of the week. If that fails then I'm binning MW and getting cold War. I've not been able to play in over a week since the update dropped. Ridiculous.

I don't even know how to raise the issue as it's not in the known error list on the Activision website despite large portions of players on the Internet having the same problems. Surely they can release a new stable update that will uninstall what is causing all the errors?

Logged in today on my Xbox to be told that the multiplayer packs are missing.....
Can't be arsed to download them again.

Can't wait for Battlefield to come out, not interested in the next COD as its WW2, Warzone got me back to the franchise after many years away and I'm off again.

Today I was playing rebirth duos, kept getting downed by airstrikes inside a building, every time I was picked up, I got downed again. They obviously knew there was a bug, as they kept spamming the building with strikes, until we both went down and died

really enjoying Killhouse, capture the flag is a bit annoying though as people just hide in one corner of the map to protect themselves.

Anyone know the best shotgun to use? feels like the .725 been nerfed to the point of being useless. Range is awful now and reload speed clearly been shortened too.

I can't play MW multiplayer on my PS4. Apparently the multiplayer pack 2 needs to be installed but it also tells me it is installed. Is that the same problem other people are having?

No, lots of people are having the issue. Some people have fixed it by installing the campaign packs again but two of my mates have the issue on their PS5's and this fix doesn't work. I can't get anywhere near playing the game on my PS4. I don't even have the option of any campaign packs unfortunately. I'm replacing the HD and if that fails, I'm giving up. Hopefully one day they will remaster MW3 and that will be me set.

Seems like PlayStation is suffering even more than Xbox now. Didn’t think that possible.
