    MW2 will not play


    I purchased MW2 from Walmart. I have installed content packs 1-6 and the COD game, when trying to play MW2 it says I need to purchase the game again in order to play even though I already have the disc inserted and installed. Any ideas on how to fix. I shouldn’t have to pay for the digital version if I already purchased the disc version.

    :)

    MW2 will not play

    The Xbox series X will not read the MW2 disc, I have returned it and tried 3 separate copies of the MW2 disc, the console will play other games/discs and read dvds/blue rays as well. But will not read any MW2 disc I insert into the console. The disc will read on my Xbox one. I installed it there and network transferred all the data to the series X and upgraded all the data that was transferred but the console refuses to read the MW2 disc.

    Hello Rickieq,



    Greetings!



    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.



    It seems that you're experiencing challenges in playing MW2. Let us check and see on what we can do to help resolve the problem in a timely manner. If we need to reach out the game developer, we will help you how to get there.

    It sounds like there may be an issue with the game's license. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve the issue:



    1. Make sure that your console is connected to the internet and that you are signed in to your Xbox Live account.

    2. Check to see if there are any updates available for the game. If there are, install them and try launching the game again.

    3. Try clearing your console's cache. To do this, press and hold the power button on the front of the console for 10 seconds. Once the console has turned off, unplug the power cord from the back of the console and wait for 10 seconds. Then, plug the power cord back in and turn the console on.



    Additionally, we have found an official article from the game developer support team that provide the instruction on how to install the disc game. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II requires a Day One update in order to play the game. After the installation is complete, launch the game to prompt the update.

    You can find it here: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II Installation and Setup (activision.com)





    We look forward to your response. Kindly let us know, if there is any misunderstanding or clarifications of our description by sending us a reply.



    Sincerely,

    It seems that the issue is on the specific disc because other disc game works just fine. It is good that you have successfully transferred your game from Xbox One to Xbox Series X through network transfer.

    For issue with your game disc, you may reach out to the game support team by submitting a ticket. You can click the link below to submit a ticket: Support Options | Activision Support

    We are positive that you’ll get more relevant information and best resolution to your concern.

    MW3 looks just like MW2..........

    I haven't seen any actual gameplay footage, but I'm guessing that it's going to look like a re-skinned version of MW2.

    I was actually excited for a minute, but I went back to playing MW2 and realized that the trailer looks just like the game I was playing.

    What's wrong with how MW2 looks? Looking like MW2 isn't necessarily a bad thing. Playing like MW2... now that would be a problem imo.

    CoD4 had good maps, MW2 made the game rubbish, if MW2 had CoD4's maps then I'd still be playing MW2 now
