There are very large update files that seem unnecessary.

@TVwazhere and @Princess Luna find out the 60Gig update added new maps and a battle royale mode, among other changes. Still, it's not great that it was 60 gigs. But I can't really complain about the free content.
Can't believe you just said that! /s
Have you had a chance to try it yet?
This happens because consumers allow them to bypass the rules. They might just apply small fixes since the games are always updated on the platform. This isn't the case back when CD and DVD games were common. It looks like they're not doing incremental updates anymore. A new map is probably at most 1Gb, and new game modes are rare unless they release complete new maps. The patch delivery could also be improved, with essential updates bundled and optional content in separate packs so sizes are obvious.
Money explains that the method used by MW essentially refreshes all archives with new content. This might be inefficient, but that's the expected explanation.
It’s getting larger. It was about 140 and fit on my M.2 before the first 30-hour update. Then it increased to 60g.
