Forums - Gaming - You'll need the disc to play 'Modern Warfare: Remastered'

Folks are  alivating at the thought of playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered, but the new game it comes with? Not so much. But if you purchased the disc-based version of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare in the hope of playing Remastered and slinging the newer title back to Gamestop, we've got some bad news. Activision has mandated that you can't relive the adventures of Soap and Price unless the Call of Duty: Infinite Warfaredisc is sat in your console and your internet connection is live. Bummer.

In the run up to the game's November 4th launch, Activision has published an updated FAQ revealing the list of restrictions gamers will have to tolerate. For PlayStation users, Remastered will have to be downloaded in its entirety via a voucher code, while those on team Xbox will get the bulk of the game on the disc, but will still need to pull down an update. Those on Steam, meanwhile, will get a key in the Legacy Edition of the title that'll let you play both games and, yes, you still need to have your internet connected for it to work. Thanks, Activision.

Yeah that's until the inevitable solo release of MW Remaster.



Was doubting even bothering to purchase this, but this just guarentees it. Bye bye acti, hope this game fails.



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

"your internet connection is live."

PC Specs: CPU: 7800X3D || GPU: Strix 4090 || RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000 || Main SSD: WD 2TB SN850

Voucher code, but still require the game disc and the internet connection to play MW1 functionally.

Dirty business as fuck.

This is how they treat gamers:

Yeah, there's no way it isn't released on it's own. Activision loves money way too much for that not to happen.

Eeeeeeexactly.

The fact they haven't come out and said "it's never being released standalone" should be enough for people to realise what they're going to do. Even their FAQ on MWR is laughably vague. I just felt like screaming at it asking if we'll be able to get it standalone or not.
