Is Activision going to charge you to play online? That's what many have been wanting to know, and we've finally got the answer. You will not have to pay for online membership. It's a one-time payment system and that's just purchasing the game.

What Activision is going to ask you to pay for is a better way to connect with Call of Duty players and improve your game. This fall, Activision will launch Call of Duty: Elite. It's being developed by Beachhead, the new studio Activision announced It had formed earlier this year (although Elite has apparently been in development for two years). Elite isn't a game. It's a service meant to enrich Call of Duty's multiplayer experience.

So, you're probably wondering if Elite is free or If It will come with that rumored subscription fee. Activision says there will be some free features, but for the complete Elite experience you'll need to have a premium membership. How much will it cost? Activision Isn't saying but claims it will be "less than any comparable online entertainment service." Included in your subscription will be all future downloadable map packs. Non-subscribers will have to pay the $15 or whatever the packs cost, but subscribers get them at no extra charge.
Hopefully this is going to support other games, but It's currently being built for Modern Warfare 3, it's also reported that it will also support BlackOps. I'm wanting for this feature to spread onto the other Call of Duty as I'm aware many of us still play Call of Duty 4 and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. By improving our game and the quality of the connection It'll make people play the game more as I for one, have quit because the connection Is horrible on Call of Duty, but hopefully this will be an alternative and something to look forward to!

Typical. It can never be enough that we've supported them this past decade with over 55,000,000 sales throughout the series (which is probably well over 70,000,000 now).
I can honestly say that I'm disappointed. Instead of giving something back to us, the reason they're still here, they're wanting more for them.
