Activision Clueless On How Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 DLC Will Work On Wii U

Nintendo really need's to get its online right for the Wii U, because nowa days with out good online means less sales.

I'm just amazed that even now Nintendo is choosing to hide how the Wii U online will work... It must mean they're hiding it from shame of how bad it is. Why else would they not be boasting about it with around a month until the console comes out? Very worrying.

this to me worries me not that im a COD fan but for other games like assassins creed that usually has some DLC missions and such how will it work and if we will even have them at all or later on after the console is released?

you would think nintendo would already mentioned something about this i mean 1 month to go! D:

come on big N sort it out already

Activision really does not know that Nintendo approved DLCs only lately?

I'm not worried about the online services or capabilities of WiiU. We may not get the full vision of what Nintendo has planned for this console day 1, and I could be wrong, but it will be there and it should be great.

I echo everyone's else opinion that Nintendo should really have this sorted by now! Of course the game will be online (so was the COD series on Wii) but to think that the developers of one of the most important 3rd party games still don't know what they can or can't do is is very disappointing!

You would think Online would be one of the things Nintendo would be prioritising as one of the most important things to get right this time around!

Just because Nintendo is currently refusing to publish details on their online service does not mean it's not completed. They've already announced the launch date for the Wii U, so they must have their entire schedule well-planned prior to the event.

Aside from that, to me, Activision seem rather unfamiliar with the Wii U themselves, following the whole "native/non-native 1080p" outrage. But eh.

Nintendo needs to make their online strategy clear.
It's worrying if developers are not even sure yet.

"That's our goal, but the honest answer here, Chris, is that we're still working out the details with Nintendo."
That does not mean they're entirely clueless on how DLC will work on Wii U. They might have meant that in a distribution standpoint especially on the Wii U eShop and how things will go from there.

I agree with @zyph...the headline is very sensationalist. I dont know how nintendolife got "clueless" from these quotes from activision.

Is it just me who finds it shocking that this late in the game major third party developers still don't have a clue what's going on with Nintendo's online.

That does not inspire confidence in what Nintendo is doing in this area for me personally. In fact it makes me wonder if Nintendo even has a full clue itself as to exactly what it's doing.

Misleading headline is misleading. I'm noticing this is getting more and more common these days. smh

COD ELITE,please Activision.

C'mon, Nintendo. I don't give a **** about CoD, but still, this stuff needs to be worked out.

They're just trying to get it right. I'm not worried.

I'm pretty sure nintendo have all the online parts worked out but other developers like activision are still getting used to it. It is a new system with probably a different way of doing online and no one know it better then the creators themselves.

Doesn't mean it's Nintendos fault, I'd put blame on Activision like with the 1080P thing

Nintendo, what are you doing? The online service should be up and running by know! Or is Activision just late?

@WiiLovePeace That's my guess considering their past and present online offerings.

That or they still have no clue what they are doing.

Seen as the COD franchise have never bothered with downloadable content for Nintendo before, so they will just have to wait like they made us.

@the_shpydar Agreed. :/

I don't believe that Activision and Treyarch don't know anything about the online capabilities, I believe they just aren't sure on certain aspects of it. Perhaps how it will be delivered for example.

In any event, If Nintendo aren't wanting to spill the beans on what has been referred to as a revolutionary online service then It would make sense that Activision and other companies won't comment on anything that they know of it either. If it is truly revolutionary, then Nintendo won't want anything revealed until launch, and I'm ok with that.

Title is misleading, all they said is that they are working out the details..

@THENAMESNORM That's my thought, why spoil it so Sony and Microsoft can copy it

Not a fan of CoD at all, I have no interest in what they're doing.
What does bug me though, is the fact that Nintendo are hiding pretty much everything from everyone. If third parties still don't know how online works, that's a major problem. There are a bunch of details about online accounts, Miiverse and the Nintendo Network that we're still unaware of, and that's ridiculous. Nintendo need to stop being so cautious. Stop assuming that Sony/Microsoft will copy whatever you do, and just give us some information.

Just put DLC on there the same way they put DLC on the eShop!Activision probably doesn't know what they're doing at all!
