Activision has just revealed some information regarding DLC and some slight detail on Elite in Black ops 2.
A new page on the call of duty website tells us about the Season Pass of Black ops 2.
A new website on CallofDuty.com has revealed that Black Ops 2 will have a season pass for DLC: You must login or register to view this content.
The page is getting errors for some reason.
However someone managed to load it and here is what the page looks like:
Described as: "THE ULTIMATE WAY TO GET MORE OF CALL OF DUTY®: BLACK OPS 2"
So what do we expect?
"4 EPIC DLC MAP PACKS – 1 GREAT PRICE AT $10 OFF" Get 4 Call of Duty®: Black Ops 2 downloadable content Map Packs, delivering a variety of new content, including Multiplayer and Zombies playable content.
So buying the season pass will save you a total of $10 if you were to buy the map packs separately.
Retail price is estimated £34.99 so that seems about right for 4 map packs saving around £6.
Now no news whether or not it will be like mw3 and "content drops" but I'm hoping black ops 2 will bring us a similar quantity of dlc that mw3 had.
Elite
Elite will be free!
Thats right, we will not be paying for elite.
some features of Elite will include:
Player HQ: Track Black Ops II stats including recent match data, heat maps, challenge tracking and the ability to modify classes using the Pick 10 system
Clan HQ Join or create clans to participate in competitions
Zombies Leaderboards: Track your Zombie stats and compare to other players
Call of Duty Elite TV: Developer tips, strategy videos, custom class overviews and more
Social Integration: Notification system to stay updated on Black Ops II news, communicate with your clan and more
The Season pass is for DLC and supposedly unrelated to Elite.
More information on both of these to be announced soon.
Video just released by Activision about Elite 2.0.
Yes 360 get the 1 month Exclusivity again on all maps other than the 2 Nuketown's DLC's!
And I am happy there won't be the 1-2 maps released at a time, then wait another month for another map haha, that idea was crap from IW!
Microsoft and Sony may care about exclusive rights but gamers don't. Most premium members got it for cheaper overall price, and clan stuff. Why the hell would anyone want a 30 day heads up on new maps? 3-7 day advantage maybe but even that is unnecessary. Xbox has 1 month exclusive which is fine but that Premium vs regular shit had to go. 360 premium then PS3 premium then regular 360 then regular PS3 like wtf.
I hated having to wait 2-3 months for a DLC collection to come out just to get more players in Ground War.

I am happy that, The regular and premium stuff has gone will just be released all at once! For everyone as I said before IW have some bad ideas!
