After seeing many repeat threads that offered solutions to downloading the missing content that was released today, I'm posting some information that has recently came from @IWMarkRubin on Twitter. In response to some people, he has said that he is also having problems with this month's content not being in the PS Store, but also his Elite subscription is missing from his PSN account, something that many people are also reporting. From the tweets, it appears that the problem is that the PSN has removed the Elite subscription status of the affected people's PSN accounts which results in being unable to download the content. IW is working with Sony in resolving this issue. Feel free to post here describing your issue so that others are aware of the situation and to anyone working for Infinity Ward or is a moderator, feel free to assist people in resolving and/or reporting this issue.
Update: @candyslexia has suggested going to the main PS Store and browsing the add ons for the DLC which has worked for most people. For those that still could not see the DLC, post here describing your situation.
8 minutes after posting this thread, Beachhead is aware of this issue:The specified discussion was not found..
The new content is on the store (just not showing up in the ingame store), go on the store (from the ps3 menu) and search for elite july drops
I've downloaded the content at around 5:30 a.m. today without any issues. Many people had tried your suggestion but it doesn't work for all of them.
By "doesn't work" do you mean they downloaded the new dlc and still can't play on the dlc maps or they can't find the dlc on the store?
Not being able to find the DLC on the PS Store by searching for it or browsing the add ons.
Then their doing it wrong! ![]()
Tell them to (like i've already said) use the text search option and enter elite july drops
or search (again using the text search option) for MW3 and go down the list of results.
(This is of course presuming they have premium elite)
According to @candyslexia, going to the main PS Store and browsing the add ons works for most people. It's a small minority that can't find the DLC at all.
I haven't even downloaded any new july maps and I got the message.
Apparently, the issues regarding not finding the DLC is limited to Europe. Information regarding the solution can be found at the link to the thread from my first reply to myself. If your issue regarding the July Elite content drops isn't related to being in Europe, post here.
