Activision has revealed a selection of the feature that Call of Duty players can expect for free
when the Elite service launches
Fans have been questioning exactly what will be free and what won't
in Activision's new Call of Duty Elite service ever since it was announced.
The company has revealed some of the free features,
but is still keeping tight-lipped on what the service will actually be charging for
Here's some of the free feature's:
The ability to access Elite via the web as well as free smartphone and tablet applications
for both iOS and Android.
Cross-platform communication using web, mobile and console
Stat-tracking: kill-death ratios, score per minute and winning percentage,
presented as charts and infographics
The ability to create custom leaderboards.
Heat maps, allowing you to analyze your performance post-match.
Analysis of weapons performance - what weapons are you best with, and on which maps
ability to upload videos
ability to create and customize classes and loadouts via the web and mobile apps
to have them ready to play when you log in to the game
much-publicized Groups feature, allowing you to find players with common interests.
Clan creation.
Facebook integration, including the ability to search your Facebook friends lists
for Call of Duty players.
Automatic Group placement based on your Facebook profile
Cross-game career tracking, starting with Black Ops
Activision is refusing to reveal the premium features at this time on the grounds
that Modern Warfare 3 isn't out yet, and thus the high-end features aren't yet demonstrable.
The entire service will be revealed "by the end of the summer" apparently.
In the meantime, you can sign up for the Call of Duty Elite beta,
which starts on July 14 and includes a limited selection of the service's full feature set
