Black Ops subscription still coming, analyst claims
More...
Wedbush Morgan's Michael Pachter said that Activision may have delayed announcing the idea so as not to hurt the launch sales of the game.
"It's likely that around 60-70% of the people who buy Black Ops do so to play online multiplayer, and a greater number of the first week purchasers," he told Industry Gamers.
"Even if Activision retained fully free online multiplayer, the mere mention of a 'premium' subscription service will tick off some consumers, and there might have been a backlash at the precise time that they needed to set records. They decided not to take that risk."
Pachter predicts that Activision could introduce virtual items for $1 each as well as an optional monthly subscription that would provide complete access to premium goods and map packs.
It was also added that Activision could introduce a subscription across all Call Of Duty releases, and even all Activision and Blizzard games.

As Treyarch employee, David Vonderhaar, said on his Twitter when the game came out..They put online comes free with every copy to make fun of the rumors that had been floating around about subscriptions..There will be no subscriptions

roguewolf Well whoever this "analyst" is must not be very smart. The reason it says, "CoD multi-player. Free with every copy," is because they are making fun of EA games and how they charge you a fee to play online on any of their recent games.
I agree.
"Notice the text on the game that says 'with free multiplayer' which makes it sound as if they are planning to charge for it sometime down the line."
or maybe they're just trying to eradicate all the rumours of subscription...
