Ace 3,645 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Michael "Toilet Ghost" Pachter has once again brought up the subject of Call of Duty multiplayer fees, declaring that the newly announced Project Beachhead will "absolutely" charge for online experiences. This man is obsessed with the concept."Project Beachhead absolutely is charging for multiplayer," said the analyst. "I'm certain to my core."Activision said they are working on 'value added, premium content that is exclusive. How do you exclude people unless you do it on the basis of whether they pay or not? What, are you going to have a bouncer in front of the club where you play the content? The only way it's exclusive is if it excludes non-paying members."Pachter also shared his vision of how this would go down: "The exclusive content could be pay as you go, or monthly. Let's say Project Beachhead comes up with Call of Duty Universe, and it launches with Modern Warfare 3 and they say 'if you join here's all the exclusive content and exclusive weapons and we'll charge you a dollar a piece.' Or If they say, 'for $5 a month you get unlimited weapons and all the map packs we bring out for Modern Warfare in perpetuity,' a lot of people will say, 'I'm going to buy three map packs for 15 dollars anyway, so for $60 a year, I'm getting all the unlimited weapons and achievements,' so they could do that. I don't know if that's what they're going to choose to do. I'd say $5 a month is reasonable, though."At this rate, I almost want Activision to start charging for Call of Duty just so Michael Pachter can finally get some peace of mind that he was, after several years, finally right about it. http://www.destructoid.com/pachter-beachhead-will-charge-for-call-of-duty-online-193789.phtmlPay £50 for the game then money on top for content ... it's coming I tell ya !!

JM1872 3,819 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Haven't bought this years call of duty.. never playing £35+ for a call of duty again after MW2. This would be even more of a reason not to buy it.Medal of Honor and Battlefield Bad Company offer something completely different and are definitely challenging the call of duty series. I find it hard to see how much longer COD can go on, surely they must be running out of ideas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM1872 3,819 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Basically, what I think they mean is they will introduce exclusive content, such as unlock all weapons, perks, maps etc.. but only at a price and for a certain length of time.Therefore, basically online play will still be free.. but you will be charged for exclusive content beside what they already charge for map packs which for me is a fucking joke!Thats how I see it anyway, I'm probably wrong Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
