If you get your hands on mercenaries there are a few things you'll need to do if you wish to play online. Part of the fun of these games are the variety and all the different maps to play on, but you have to download a bit of it. These things are essential. If you don't have a map you'll be kicked out of a gaming session. If you don't have the patches and mekpak you can't play period. Here are the links and aprox megs per file.
http://www.microsoft.com/games/mw4mercs/downloads.asp
that first link is one we're all familiar with. the "zone patch" aprox 5 megs
http://www.mektek.net/mekpak
this is a doozy. aprox 43 megs. includes new mechs, weapons, and skins.
http://www.mektek.net/downloads/mw4/maps...bkconv.htm
this last link converts the maps from vengeance and black knight over to be usable in mercs. even if you don't have those two games you can still download the maps and terrain files, but they are much larger. my size estimates are assuming you have vengeance and bk installed. vengeance maps aprox 7 megs. vengeance terrain aprox 1 meg. black knight maps aprox 6 megs. terrain for black knight aprox 1 meg.
