COD MW3 To Feature Subscription "Elite" Service

I will buy another cod games ever again let alone paying for a monthly sub. I already got ripped off for getting black ops.

The only game I am looking forward for this is BF3.
 
I would like to take this oppurtunity to remind you all about the shenanigans regarding boycott mw2 groups over dedicated servers.

Still became a top seller as will this.

Thats got nothing to do with anything.

The fact half that boycott group bought it anyway was the joke not that it sold well.

which boycott group a massive load of them existed, and again it was still a massive seller despite all the moaning.

fact remains it's a farcical but smart move.

not to mention bug fixes are less likely to go un answered. Whilst i will probably not buy elite i will still buy the game a lot of people are judging before they have all the facts which was excatly the point i was making regarding the mw2 farce about servers.


See the positives.

If customers subscribe they enter a contract with activision and should expect regular fixes and releases to maintain there continued subscription. This will obviously not be fixes for just elite stuff but the basic game that people like myself will be purchasing and enjoying. So in one sense potentially the stuff that often never gets done will be done and everyone will benifit from the subscription fees of those very idiots you mock


It's not blackmail quite the opposite look at the model set out by league of legends and adopted by Team fortress 2 Heroes of new earth and now the COD series.

People will pay for things it's a fact be it in the form of character skins or weapons.

LOL is an entierly free game for thousands but for some they buy into it and get special skins and access to cool champions early. it doesn't affect the game play it just enhances the experience for them.

People mock them for wasting money in a free game but it is that money that ensures bug fixes and continued involvement from the developers to keep the game balanced and bug free and it is absurd to see it as a bad thing.

but go head buy bf3 get one up on activision.................
 
The sad part is you basically said

"We'll be paying extra for them to fix the game with patches which they should be doing anyway"

Honestly I hope MW3 fails, If any COD bombs Activision will be in deep trouble financially, which is a good thing as this is one publisher I wouldn't mind see going under.

Not read the whole thread but what are you smoking? Activision in trouble! You not seen their portfolio?
 
Oooh, tempers are flaring! For a game that everyone claims they don't give a damn about and they'll never buy, everyone's getting pretty steamed up about it :D
 
Tbh, I'll buy MW3, I still enjoy MW2/Black Ops...

Yes there are some broken features, but on the whole I still enjoy them...

Saying that I'm getting Battlefield 3 as well, and if I enjoy that more than MW3 well I'll obviously play B3 instead...

I must confess, I've signed up to the Beta of COD 'Elite'... as it's free I might as well try and see how it goes if I get accepted...

On another note, whoever is the CEO of Activision (can't remember the guys name) but I remember reading somewhere that if he could have one wish, it'd be to make COD a subscription service...

Pretty rubbish imagination for a wish if you ask me xD

Just read some news from CVG and I don't get it. Is this going to work out like Halo Waypoint with added paid for extras or is it going to be a MMO type affair with subscription to play?
