Is there a way to play the campaign only and avoid a large download in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered?
Posted On: April 23, 2024

So, today I got Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered 50% off to play the campaign. Upon buying it, I get two things in my Steam library: MWR MP and MWR. Now, I started with just the MWR one because I don't care about MP. But the download is 55 GB.


That kind of large download is not really feasible for me at the moment, internet-wise, and I had read beforehand that you can play campaign without the MP, so is there a point in the download when campaign becomes available to just play?


I really don't want to download 38–40 GB of extra content that will be useless to me, given that I only want the story.


Question from user Nathanman at gaming.stackexchange.com.


Answer:

That's how the game works. 55GB is the size for SP campaign.


CoD shares their data(such as weapon models, character models, maps that's used in both SP/MP, etc) with MP.


So, technically, the SP data is about 55GB, but the data that's unique to SP is about 25GB or something (judging by recent CoD's data size, MW2 and MW3). So in total it shares about 30GB of the data with MP. So no, you can't just download story and play, you'd need to download them anyway.
