Call of Duty Elite will be free for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC owners when Call of Duty Black Ops 2 launches on November 13th, but Wii U owners won’t be receiving it. Publisher Activision explained to Kotaku that they’re currently evaluating options for Call of Duty Elite to support the Wii U, but Call of Duty Elite for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 will not support the platform when the game launches on November 13th.
“We are currently evaluating options for Call of Duty Elite to support Nintendo’s Wii U game system, however Call of Duty Elite for Call of Duty: Black Ops II will not support this platform when the game launches on November 13th.”
Thanks, SimplyG
If it doesn’t impact my ability to coop-kill Zombies, then I do not care.
Also, DLC? Fuck that. I don’t even know what “Elite” is…
good.
COD sucks anyway
Such an ignorant comment.
CoD is a fun game, I just hate the hardcore fans.
No excuses acti-dickheds. You spendin all your time on the other version’s cus that’s what sellin atm , right ??? yeh , well when the wiiu is selling RAPIDLY this time next year , let’s see what you come up with then . :)
Lets hope so
Jesus Christ… They’re trying! What does it take? A decent online system? Probably.
Well the Nintendo Network for wiiu isn’t even up and running yet , so I suppose they can be forgiven . Like I said the next cod after this on wiiu should have everything and more once they get to know the system a bit more.
I am still excited for the way they have incorporated the gamepad for dual screen multiplayer.
It’s a very clever feature and one that could carry the wiiu quite far!
I have a question umm can u play cod on to difrent accounts on the same tv like on the xbox 360 and is the going to be mic chat party like xbox thanks=======================================================================================================’=====’==============
My guess is yes if you use adifrent mii
Nintedward, give them time, stuff like this just doesn’t happen overnight, I’d rather them take time and perfect a system rather than give us rushed crap.
Do you even know what Elite is?
Thats just sad. Although i never bought it for my xbox, it would have been nice to have that option.
What is Elite anyway ?
Its a subscription that gives you an elite name status to compensate for ones small penis size.
Is this true?
Elite is like a online ranking that measures the total of all the things you did on all cods and gives some especial things like xclusive embles and tags
The earlier CoDs part sounds pretty useless for a new platform. Unless I could sync BO on xbox…
If the game is at least as fun or more fun than BO1, I’ll finally get rid of my Xbox.
Thanks very much for the explanation.
Also, I officially do not care about Elite now that I know what it is.
So. I’m still good.
OH NO!!! WHY ACTIVISION?! WWWHHHHHYYYY!!? *Sobs in a corner*…
LOL JUST KIDDING!!
I really don’t give 2 shits about Elite
I’m sure it’s because they’re still trying to get a handle on Wii U’s online network. There is still the chance they may release it at a later date for the Wii U version.
LOL You Wii U suckers are now hating COD suddenly. But when it was confirmed that it will run 1080p…u guys screamed of joy…till u heard it was not native WOEUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA HAHAHHA HWAHAHAHAHA WHAHAH AHA AHA HA HAHHWAHAHAWAHA AHW OUERHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I don’t hate it. Stop making false claims.
Your so ignorant…
*shrugs* since when did i say i hate it?
The definitive version.
Yup im getting this one not the xbox version does that hurt you?
Still is i bet you dont know what elite is
Maybe not … but the dual screen multiplayer at 60fps on each screen looks very good.
So I will wait for reviews on that feature , if it’s good I may buy it just to test that feature out.
You mispelled definitive *virgin. It’s ok though, once you start stop spending most of your day refreshing this site to troll, you’ll get laid based on the glimmering personality you display here. Good luck.
It’s okay if you’re upset, my internet keyboard ninja warrior.
It’s ok, overlord title giver
Lol the fucking irony of your comments are outstanding
It’s not ironic when I can actually back it up, 100% of people who go out of their way to randomly post stuff like this, are pussies.
This is random
nup, mfw you don’t shit about statistics and you suck at life…hurr durr
Playing FPS with a dualshock sucks anyway. That’s why I’m considering the Wii U version.
FPS’s*
*FPSes
Isn’t dual shock just ps3? Besides what’s wrong with other controllers that don’t say “Nintendo” on it?
The only other console that plays CoD is the 360 and I own a PS3. Go back to school.
I don’t get what you’re trying to say. At all.
ILL BE FINE AS LONG AS WE GET THE DLC
I’ll wait for the much more superior FPS coming out next year.
Aliens colonial marines :P . Is your gamepad screen scanner ready ?? ?*bleep , bleep , bleep*
Perfect response.
Beautiful.
Hell yeah! Can’t wait to get Aliens!
“more superior”
Superior means better, or more good. So “more superior” means “more more good”.
And to be frank there’s not much evidence to suggest that Aliens will be better than this or vice versa. I’d wait for release before you make such claims…
at least it gets nuketown 2025. i dont even know what elite is
I don’t know what Elite is. So is this a bad thing?
It tracks your progress on all CoD games that are supported. It was prepared for the launch of Modern Warfare 3, but Black Ops 1 was added to it, so this can also come to Wii U in a later patch. If you don’t use Elite constantly, then I see no reason to even care about it.
They said they’re still trying to get the option on the Wii-U but, at the moment, it won’t come with Call of Duty Elite. It’s not all doom and gloom people.
Also, keep in mind that this is the first Call of Duty game on the Wii-U so the free version of Elite wouldn’t really benefit it. When more Call of Duty games are on the console, that’s when it’ll be important. Especially if you use the paid version.
What Activision is trying to say exactely is: We are lazy and won´t rush to launch Elite for the WiiU version, because we don´t know how to work with its online features yet.
Am Nintendo but have never cared for COD since world at war. As Nintendo fans remember ps3 fans always get nothing in comparison to 360 players.
“when the game launches November 13th” I may be over reading this, but doesn’t Black Ops 2 Wii U release on November 18th? ALso, they said they’re still in talks with Nintendo over this and may come in a future patch.
For those who don’t lnow, Elite is basically a service by Activision that tracks your progress on a supported CoD game that can be seen from your PC on the CoD Elite website. You get statistics for all of the CoD games that you have played that support this. The console/game sends this info to Activision. I’ve never used it myself even though I’ve played every CoD game since CoD 4, but I’ve seen it and read about it.
Unless you use that constantly, then I don’t see how this would affect you. Since the Miiverse “boards” will be a system-wide feature, I’d rather have that and get the Wii U version since I don’t use Elite myself. Nintendo said that developers can choose to support Miiverse, but I’m thinking that means even deeper features such as achievements and stuff, but it shouldn’t affect the boards or chat.
Nov 13 is when it comes out on other platforms
I know that, but the Wii U version comes out November 18th. The article said the service wouldn’t launch on WIi U when the game is released on November 13th as opposed to the 18th.
I couldn’t care less about Elite. Honestly I’ll be spending most of my Black Ops 2 time on zombies and Combat Training anyway. Yay for killing Bots! =D
That’s be because the wii u won’t have launched on November 13th.
WHO GIVES A FUK ELITE IS FOR UNDER 12S COD FANATICS LOL AT THE WHOLE WIIU AINT CORE VIB HERE
WHO GIVES A FUK ABOUT ELITE NO ONE THATS WHO
How old are you? You are acting like an immature fanboy.
Probably because of Nintendo setting into DLC and stuff, I expect the Wii U will get it soon enough for the few people who get Elite.
Also, I gots a new avatar :)
When it updates…
Elite or not, I’m STILL buying Black Ops II for the Wii U along with a Pro controller!
I’ll probably still get the Wii U version. FPS’s suck on a dualshock anyway.
That’s like the 10th time I’ve seen you complain about dual shock which you don’t even have apparently so why does it matter to you? Stop being such a fanboy.
So because I think dualshock is crap for a FPS automatically makes me a fanboy. Great logic idiot.
I dont really care about CoD, so heck yeah.

well. it looks like im still not buying the new cod. again.
Can someone tell me why I’m supposed to care about this? I don’t understand why a lack of Elite is such a big deal, considering what it is.
Lol cause those who care dont know what it is
I’m not a die-hard CoD fan. I just enjoy playing with friends on MW3 and BO on his PS3 that’s about it, so no elite for Wii U doesn’t really matter to me. But this will probably be bad news for some CoD fans who were interested in getting it for the Wii U. I think Activision are probably a bit cautious with the Wii U and want to see how well BO2 and maybe other games sell before they are a bit more confident.
As long as the Elite thing isn’t a gigantic portion of the gameplay, then I don’t care if it’s included or not.
Is not even a small part of the gameplay
