    Activision have a contract with Microsoft so that all DLC drops are released on Xbox 360 first, to all of their customers, so they cannot release it to PS3 Elite members until after all Xbox 360 customers have access to it.  You'll do still get all the content before non-Elite subscribers on PS3 which is what all PS3 Elite Founders are paying for.

      I'm with the OP on this one, and I know they have a contract with Microsoft to release on their console first.  ELITE was supposed to be for early access.  nonELITE members should not be able to get access before ELITE members no matter what the console.  Its a breach of my contract with ELITE.  They could have released it after all ELITE members had access.  Nothing else works like its supposed to, they could atleast keep to the promise of early access.

      You're dilusional WKMMS. The only contract Microsoft and Activision have is that Xbox users are able to purchase dlc 1 month ahead of all other platforms. The fact that you are ok with all non-xbox elite members not getting their elite content as promised means you either have an xbox or don't have elite. I knew when elite came out it'd be a load of crap given Activision and CoD's track record but I do feel sorry for those that got lured into buying it and then ripped off.

        I'm not quite sure how you figure I'm delusional when you basicially re-affirm my point in your next sentence there.  MS paid Activision so that ALL Xbox users get access to DLC before any other platform.  Since the OP is a PS3 user, which is another platform, then logically he has to wait until a month after every Xbox customer has the opportunity to buy the DLC, even though he has Elite.

        I said nothing about being okay with non-Xbox Elite members not getting their content as promised.  I made a comment to the OP based on my understanding of the DLC arrangements between MS and Activision and how it relates to his being an Elite PS3 customer, nothing else.

         

        The OP deserves to get the same amount of DLC as an Xbox user who signed up to Elite at the same time as he did, even if his subscription were to run out before some of that content were released to PS3.  If that turns out not to be the case, then he should be royally p*ssed because that would be a rip-off.

    You get it first but only on your platform.

    Don´t know why that´s a problem of course you want the dlcs like any other but where´s the problem when non premium can buy it too?

    I have my premium so to me it doesen´t matter but I would appreciate it just for the fact that more friends can play with me.

    And that "ripped of" things you write...

    There are many games where sony or ms holds a contract with the devs so that the other platform is in clear disadvantage, this is (sadly) business as usual.

    Bringing out soft facts (like this "get it first on elite") always brings confusion so don´t waste your time on hating, you won´t get a result (maybe a heart attack).
