Call of Duty Elite beta began a “staged launch” today and to kick it off, Activision unloaded this two minute trailer that spends one minute cracking jokes and another minute answering questions except for the biggie: How much is this damn thing going to cost?
For now, it’s free; for now, it’s in beta. You can learn about all the other stuff Activision wants you to do in Call of Duty Elite. Remember, you don’t actually get a pony.

Friday, July 15, 2011 at 12:49 PMhow do they think thats a positive.
Not to mention that they still didn’t outline a reasonable reason to pay for it.
Special events,tourneys clan matches. Cod4 had all of them at no extra cost. you set up a server and away you go.
As for real prizes. No doubt they’ll be a BS, competition only valid in america clause, much in the same way as most of the BO Developer servers were in america.
how about instead of a stupid buzz video(that told us nothing that they hadn’t already mentioned) actually show us something

- Heat maps: already have in BO.
- Track friends & rivals, join groups of like-minded players: what are forums and XBL?
- Create an join clans: bwah?
- Study and edit load outs: like what you can do now?
- Create custom leaderboards: well whoop-de-fuckn’-doo.
- Access from mobile devices: I’ve always wanted to access my CoD stats when I’m out.
- Weapon performance stats: already have.
Money well spent.

What’s going to happen to existing services that already provide this? Are they at threat? o.O
