Activision has updated its official system requirements for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare on PC, offering an explanation as to why the shooter is listed as needing a staggering 175GB of hard-drive space.
According to the publisher, that 175GB is not so much a requirement as a recommendation. Activision suggests that players keep that amount of space free in order to download Modern Warfare’s post-launch content. The initial download on launch day, it assures, will be smaller, although it offers no indication of precisely how much smaller it might be.
