Treyarch Lays Out What Elite Users Can Expect from Call of Duty: Black Ops II

Guns?

Wait Elite is free now?

Get Ready For $50 Season Passes A Le Cart

All of Elite is free now....except the season pass part.

I couldn't care less as to what to expect in any Call of Duty game.

lol

I was going to come in here and post, "Tell me about the part where I should care."

But then I foresaw someone responding with, "Why are you posting if you don't care?"

So I didn't.

Elite: coming 10 months after the game.

Oh hey, Activision blocked it on YouTube, what a surprise. That must be really damn annoying, I wish YouTube was better at dealing with that kind of stuff. Or that Activision was less anal about it. Something!

I bet all the casual CoD players are getting pumped for the new game that they will only play for multiplayer which will have a lifespan of less than 2 months for them then wait until the next one rolls around because they're too crappy to do anything good in the game. The cycle continues.

I just want to know if there's Robits Mode in the Vita version so I know if I should just ignore this Call of Duty cycle.

Activision blocked the YouTube mirror, ha.

I'm a core gamer. Well this game be hard core enough for me?

Holy crap my clan, the Rage Quitters was one of the clans on screen when they were talking about the suggested clans feature.

I would have to imagine they are separating Elite and Season Pass to avoid multiple-tiers of community segregation that happened with Modern Warfare 3, you could possibly argue that Modern Warfare 3 had greater player fall-off than previous entries due to a more complicated DLC rollout plan (that and the age of the core design). Simplifying their DLC back to full-sized Map Packs for everyone makes it simpler and they will probably end up making about as much money with less head-ache for them. I couldn't help but notice that video fails to mention the celebrity hosted shows though, maybe they are dropping those.

Wow hopefully it won't be broken the first month, otherwise it looks pretty good.

It is also smart, as the previous Elite was pretty confusing as hell.

This video contains content from Activision Games, Inc, who has blocked it on copyright grounds.

Uhhhh....that's....interesting.

With no clear way to quit the app.

The YouTube version has been pulled by Activision from GB's page as it's copyrighted. Oh, the hilarity.

Brads lookin good with that beard, Vinny is lookin kind of shaggy though... and not the 90's hit artist "It Wasn't Me" Shaggy. Hashtag BEARDPOLICE..... #

Wow, slow clap on Activision for blocking the YouTube mirror.

Why is this a premium video?

Check it out, it's PREMIUM CONTENT!

So Activision doesn't want this promotional trailer/featurette to spread on YouTube? Marketing at its finest, I guess...

I'm not saying Activision is a whore of a company.... but seriously, Bobby will suck your dick for cash

I'm pretty certain that's not at the direct order of Activision, as YouTube's copyright bots are notorious for tagging copyright infringement erroneously on enthusiast-media/press channels. So before you start putting on your Activision-hate-slinging gloves on, you can probably settle down on this one.

Says premium content for this video?

"This video has been removed by the user" when trying to watch the YT version.

there's stuff inside the video that automatically gets recognized by youtube and blocks it.. download the vid and re-upload it to any youtube account and its instantly blocked

activision wants you to go to their youtube page so they can say "look at us, we got a gaziljon views on this video"

its actually kinda lame.. most videos just say it has 3rd party copyrighted material in it but it doesnt get blocked.. activision is, as far as i know, the only that blocks their videos for other channels

I love how this is a premium video for some reason

Why is this a premium video?

Is this like ironically a premium video? Because I'm pretty sure most of us GB premium members are just about the opposite of the type of person who gives a shit about this.

Hey, last three commentors. Why don't you read the previous comments?

So since copyright bots killed the Youtube version, this advertisement is a premium GIANT BOMB XXXCLUSIVE!!! Drop a bomb on it, son!!!

I know what to expect...NO PC VERSION as usual.

@fatalbanana: Vinny has a baby. He doesn't have time for purportless things like trimming.

Why is this premium video?

STOP ADVERTISING OUR GAME FOR US!!!

I will never understand companies like activision...

This is just gross

The PREMIUM of the premium.

lol premium modo

I still don't understand why YouTube taking it down means this has be marked as a premium video on the site. Also, this is not the first time "Activision" made copyright claims on trailers posted to YouTube from GB. The way YouTube's copyright algorithms or whatever work is hilarious (refer to Will Smith from Tested bitching on their podcast about this issue for more info).

Cool story bro.

Yo dawg, I heard you like premium services.

This is premium because Youtube video was taken down by Activision. Don't worry guys, your not missing anything.

Man, I thought it was clever commentary :(

Alright, WHO THE FUCK threw together the visuals for this trailer? It feels like both of my eye-holes are getting fisted by Ali. If I was epileptic, I'd be eating my forearm and shitting blood right now.
