Large update sizes for Call of Duty Season 2 update
When the update went live, fans expected the update sizes to be astronomical because of the large file size of the previous updates. When Season 1 launched in December, the file sizes were massive, with almost a 35 GB update for Xbox. While the PS4 update clocked at 4 GB, the PC update files were at a whopping 70 GB. To put this into context, the updates were almost a quarter, or in some consoles, almost half the size of the original game.
For the Season 2 update, the file size decreased by a lot, but it still has one of the larger updates compared to other AAA games. The Xbox update came in at 22 GB. While the PlayStation update only came in at 12 GB, the PC update came in at 30 GB.

Players face a lot of inconvenience while downloading a Call of Duty game because updates and downloads will take a long time if the internet speeds are comparatively slow. Other than that, console players have to sacrifice on downloading other games because most console SSDs only have up to 1 TB of storage. Such a problem has caused players to voice their disappointment to Treyarch, or troll them mercilessly while laughing at their own hapless situation.
