“Elite members can level up their clans.” So instead of dedicated servers you give this crap?

Too much money. While COD and MW games are very successful I doubt they are successful enough to buy an additional subscription to play a single video game when you have all the other video games out there. I suspect it might work for a year or so then flop.

I have to say, this stuff should be free, the only thing I see there that is worth paying for is the extra video space, and that is because the developers have to buy hard drives to store the video.

They should make the maps for free, or make a map creator for players(console and pc). If you look at multiplayer games like left 4 dead, and counter strike, and even Far Cry 2, they all have map creators in which players can create their own map. It allows for much more content, and I will admit it’s not all great, but there are plenty of amazing maps made by players.

One concern I see arising from having a ton of maps is having the players split up between the overflow of content. The way to solve this is to highlight ten different maps each month that are very good. Then everyone will have great content that they can congregate within.

It just looks like another cash grab, and This seems like a lot to be asking especially for XBL users who already have to pay 60 a year to play online. Now they want another 50 for a few extra features. Seems like a rip to me.
