''We Pissed a Lot of People Off', Says CoD Elite Product Director

Unread postby News Portal » 26 Apr 12, 1:08 pm

When Call of Duty Elite came out last year, you may or may not know that its online service failed to work, leaving many potential players angry and frustrated. Now Activision are eager to win back the followers they lost during that first month, giving away extra DLC and updating the game with new content. “There’s a lot of people we pissed off all the way back to November, and we have to show them we are not going to let that happen again. But we have started fulfilling our promises and people are starting to get it is real value for money,” said Product Director Noah Heller.

I never heard anything about it, so I'm not actually sure. We might have dodged a bullet if it didn't!

What is the price of COD elite a month?
$10 wasnt it?

You still have to buy the games at full RRP
Then you get Map packs for free, nothing too interesting as they should be free anyway.
And you get some dumb quasi-useful stat tracking system aswell..
I fail to see the Value

It's been in testing for PC for months, it's still non-functional...

Pretty poor form really...

The concept was to monetise the DLC with stat tracking, problem is they don't moderate it so the hackers rule the stats again and again and again...

Silly silly Activision...
