Call of Duty: MW3 Error Keeps Asking Players For Modern Warfare 2 Disc

Some PS5 players are struggling to play Activision’s new military shooter due to a strange error

kotaku.com

For a long time, people have joked that new Call of Duty games are just the same game repackaged with a few new guns every year. It's not true, of course, but some installments do feel very similar to past entries thanks to similar technology and assets being used across the franchise. But MW3 on PS5 pushes this further, with trophies on PS5 being listed as DLC for MW2. And now, some players are reporting that they can't even play the game on PS5 due to an error message asking them to insert the PS4 version of Modern Warfare II.

I expected it to take way longer for Phil to turn COD into a total POS but he did this in record time. Great job!

I see most of this issues in online focus games, you dont see this crap in most SP games like Armored Core VI, Mario Wonder, Tear of the Kingdom and Alan Wake 2.

THANK GOD I'm only in to SP games and i dont have to deal with these nonsense.

Who buys DLC for a game they don't own? Are they stupid or something?

This was already the case if you bought CoD Infinite Warfare bundled with Modern Warfare 1 Remastered code. If you installed only MW1 you still needed the IW disc to launch it.

I played the beta for a while and asked Sony for refund. Skipping this trash.

That's because it came with it and is tied to the same disc, it's an authentication
This is completely different.

Checks out as everyone who really played the beta felt it was MUCH better than the trash Infinity Ward put out last year.

I heard this campaign is 3 hour dogshit and that all the maps are old.


Though to be fair, old maps might actually be a positive.

It's only my opinion. I greatly enjoyed last year's version.

This is the first year since the original PC title I'm not buying COD. And since Battlefield is a pile of trash, I guess Trepang2 wins shooter of the year.
