Remember the Call of Duty social network, matchmaking and stat-tracking service, Call of Duty Elite? The one that was available on Xbox and PS3 at Modern Warfare 3s launch? The one that Activision described as a necessity for games? It might not make it to PC.
Beachhead Studio head Chacko Sonny implied that we were getting it a few weeks ago, abeit later than the console kids: Were as committed as ever to the PC, but the need to ensure a safe PC environment is greater than ever, he said. Its really extensive. We need more time to get there, so Elite on PC will not launch on Day 1. Were working our butts off to make it happen, but we wont release it until we know that PC gamers can enjoy Elite as its meant to be.
It seems the situation has changed. As Eurogamer spotted on the official Call of Duty Elite Twitter feed, we might not be getting the service at all. EVER.
We are working towards a universal Elite experience but we cannot guarantee if or when a version will be available for the PC, read a tweet posted a few hours ago. The if makes me suspicious.
Call of Duty Elites console launch has been plagued with technical issues and users have even been given 30 days free use of the service to compensate. We were told that the PC version of Elite wouldnt require a subscription fee. We were also told that wed be testing it around now. And that it would eventually get released on PC, hence all the coverage. I dont know who to believe any more.
