Introduction:
To play Plutonium IW5 you will need a copy of the latest IW5 base-game. This is simple to do if you have a Steam account and is also FREE.

Downloading the files:
As part of the vanilla MW3, Steam provides a free MW3 Dedicated server download, this contains all the files needed to run the Plutonium IW5 Mod. Before using the dedicated server files, ensure your Steam client is set to English otherwise it can fastfile errors later due to Steam failing to download some required files in other languages. To download these files do the following;

Method 1:

• Copy the following link and paste it into your address bar at the top of your browser to open Steam directly to the Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 - Dedicated Server page. steam://install/42750

• Click Open on the prompt that appears, ensure it has Steam Client Bootstrapper selected.

• This should take you to the page shown below, click the install button.
  

• Go to the What Next? section of this thread.

Method 2:

• Open Steam and then click View which is in the top left and then Library.

• Click GAMES AND SOFTWARE above the list of games and tick the Tools checkbox.
  

• Scroll down the list and find Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 - Dedicated Server and click on this and then click Install.
  

What next?:
This will now install the needed files, when you launch the Plutonium Launcher you will be asked to set a path for the IW5 Base-game, if your Steam Library is installed on your C drive then this is likely at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3

You should now be ready to play Plutonium IW5. Please wait for the release date.

For those who forget to download the game in English:
Go here
Then click on properties, select the language tab and chose English.
This will launch an update.

@Mr-Android How long before controller support is added? I was originally a console player. Super excited for this game!

@AshtonRocks You can use Steam Config for now, we don't know how long native support will take.
