Call of Duty "Elite" Is BeachHead's Paid Service For MW3; But How Much Will It Cost

Recently reported by the Wall Street Journal, the awaited digital platform details for the leaked "Call of Duty Elite" program have made ground. Designed to launch in tandem with the upcoming Modern Warfare 3 title, BeachHead's "Elite" services will compare greatly to "Bungie Pro" premium services, with some improvements.

A video now exists to go with this post, on another posting at ROQ: http://www.reviewsonq.com/2...

MintBerryCrunch4723d ago

very vague...you compare it to BungiePro and say that it has improvements, yet you dont do any comparison

on top of that, it was very hard to read...idk if it was your sentence structure or grammar, but it felt like it was rushed

FACTUAL evidence4723d ago

15$, they wanna charge WoW money. Activision knows their fans will sell their soul's for a subscription.

ATiElite4723d ago

I watched the video twice just to make sure but this is all standard stuff for PC Gamers.....stuff you get for FREE!

Clans, stats, upload videos, strategy guides all FREE stuff. I'm sure they will add stuff later but for right now I wouldn't pay a PENNY for this.

Actually doesn't the PSN and Xbox Live let you do all this stuff too? I'm hoping there is more to Elite than this.

Rainstorm814723d ago (Edited 4723d ago )

its going to unbelieveable how many people will end up getting this.

JoeIsMad4723d ago

I think I'll pick up this service, because I'm interested in my statistics enough to do so. This is an MLG series on the PlayStation 3, and for those serious about improving their game, this is a good idea.

I already intend on purchasing every map expansion, as I have for years, because I like to have a complete title. I do this for the Halo series as well.

THWIP714723d ago

...have ruined gaming for everyone else. Thanks alot, jack*ss. :o

AKissFromDaddy4723d ago

Your problem is you have too much money, Activision will help with that.

Rynx4723d ago

Wow dude, don't those strings get annoying after a while?

tehpees34723d ago (Edited 4723d ago )

joels really is mad

spektical4723d ago

complete title? seriously? i'm not sure if there are sites that can queue activisions stats servers, similar to DICE's... but cmon paying money to see complete stats? I used to play cod4 MLG.. I dont play anymore, but even I wouldnt fall for that sh1t.

A7XEric4723d ago

I can see your logic there. I'm sure there will be a lot of serious players who use this, but this I think most people that are hating on the fact that this is an arrogant cash grab on activision's part, especially since they are trying to call this service "revolutionary" when bungie has been doing the same thing for years now.

No Way4723d ago (Edited 4723d ago )

Dude ! You suck! You buy the extra download content to have the full game?
It's people like you buying this shit, we don't have a full game at purchase!

Sigh..

Hey so um....

I'll see you y'all in Battlefield 3, then.

Dart894723d ago

Yea and you better watch out i might just snipe you're face off:D.

Rainstorm814723d ago

I'll be right there with you on BF3

JoeIsMad4723d ago

I think a lot of people would agree with that, but the same percentage of people would agree that 320 MS points for some extra space in Halo's Bungie Pro services are not a needed expense either.

rob60214723d ago

So if you pay for the service on PS3, do you still get shafted on having a month long wait on DLC?

Rainstorm814723d ago

Yep, MS has that on lock through 2013 i think

dgonza404723d ago

wow.. PS3 owners will probably still subscribe.

DONT DO IT!lol

Call of Duty Players Disappointed by $80 B.E.A.S.T. Glove Bundle Deal

Recently, players of Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone were met with a new bundle featuring the B.E.A.S.T. Glove, inspired by King Kong's armament in the Godzilla x Kong movie. However, the $80 price tag attached to this themed accessory left many Call of Duty fans feeling underwhelmed.

Morons that allow themselves to be milked continuously by this company is the definition of irony.
Spend more $$ and you'll end up In easier lobbies so you win both ways when ya spend that cash

melons24d ago

Controversy in the COD community feels like it happens within an alternate timeline. Activision will take the piss with something, there will be a momentary fuss about it, and then they will forget about it and carry on anyway. Repeat this cycle literally every year for the rest of time.

Gridknac24d ago

They call that a crack head! Thats what this is really about, its an addiction. People who dont smoke cigarettes look and laugh at the addicts that spend $8-$10 a pack, but they cant help themselves, they are addicted. That same analogy applies perfectly to the whole MT industry. Only an addict that was not thinking clearly would spend this kind of money on something so frivolous. A round of multiplayer provides the same high a person gets from scratching a lotto ticket, or putting money on a sports bet. MT in general need to really be regulated because you have a generation of kids becoming adults who grew up only knowing the MT era of gaming. Its normal to them and they will in turn teach their kids the same by just being a gaming parent and getting their kids involved with them in gaming. Thats why no matter how ridiculous the headlines keep getting out of the MT industry, it never seems to fade or go away.

X-2322d ago

I'm so tired of hearing about what they're doing with this game, its never going to change and it's never going to value the consumer over money, furthermore the people who engage so heavily in the microtransactions I guess allegedly are having a blast and can't wait to do it some more this year when the new version of the game drops.

Cheech And Chong Are Coming To Call Of Duty Because Everything Must Be Consumed

The famous comedy duo is the latest example of pop culture becoming one big grey blob

Christopher38d ago

Certain to have some sort of reference to their online store for CBD/THC chews, which is advertising heavily online the last month or two.

Sciurus_vulgaris38d ago

The randomness of the multiplayer characters is one of reason I quit playing COD after briefly returning in 2022. We got Space Marines, rappers, tree monsters etc. all in a series called “ Modern Warfare”.

OtterX38d ago (Edited 38d ago )

I think if there was ever a time for a competitor to rise up and take away some of Call of Duty's thunder, the time would be now. A military shooter that takes itself seriously, not sold out to Fortnitism. Easier said than done, I know... but the time is ripe.

I can't stand this stuff either.

Palitera38d ago

There are tons of MP shooters that make no profit, if you're looking for one of those

fsfsxii38d ago

You guys have been saying this shit since 2009. Fortunately, nobody’s bringing down cod anytime soon, if ever.

crazyCoconuts38d ago

I agree. I really didn't like how the silliness takes away the gritty origins. That and all the crazy effects... dunno. I'm still playing it but I'd love for someone to steal their cheese and cater to grittier players

OtterX37d ago

@fsfsxii It's not so much wanting COD itself to die as it is wanting this silliness to die. Like CrazyCoconuts said, it takes from the grittiness. Many OG COD players want a straightup Military shooter experience, not silly costume time at Carnival.

is this what the kids want these days a pair of iconic stoners who were big in the 70s and have kind of held on I enjoyed their movies decades ago but I never recall the movie where cheech infiltrates a enemy base while chong snipes for support guess I must of missed that one

Man I'm getting to old for this

Knightofelemia38d ago (Edited 38d ago )

Cheech just looks so wrong in the picture.

Profchaos38d ago

Why just why. cod up in smoke

anast38d ago

They charge too much for a game that is kitsch.
