| I bought the Hardened edition of MW3 for myself and for my son - we both got Elite with the editions which were bought for 'free' maps. We have both activated the Elite, but neither of us actually use it at all. So, whilst the headline figure is pretty impressive, I wonder what the underlying figure of active / regular users of Elite would be? |

@11, you pay for dlc to be cheaper, but the dlc isn't really worth buying that much when you compare what you're paying to what you get, you get a mission, with on replay value, a multiplayer map, or a game mode, all of it just what it is on the surface, where as something like halo gives several maps, all of what have matchmaking, custom games, forge and theatre, or gears, which has multiplayer, custom and horde. Although CoD now has a theatre, it's useless for machinima makers, just montage makers. You do get less for your money then what you get with other games. Never mind the ;services' which should be free, and are free in other places, sites such as game battles, for instance for clan tracking, halo has complete stat tracking, Elite is a excuse to milk money, and nothing more when you get down to it, as is the CoD series generally now, it really stands out as a game to give impressions to anyone, and thats a bad thing, that makes games seem more childish, as well as making the majority of the gaming community seem like 'CoD arse's' what i mean by this, is all of the worse kinds of gamer that come to mind, they are the ones who inhabit the majority of CoD's online, because its the 'cool game' to have. It's sad that so many would give into just handing over their money, when not actually knowing what they're getting, to be honest I just laughed when I saw the full list for the dlc, that was given months after actually starting to sell elite, it wasn't worth the money for elite at all in my opinion, it's just my thoughts at the end of the day, but, allot of others also seem to share my opinion. |

@17 If you think it's not worth it, that's only your opinion. I've already gotten more playtime out of the MW3 DLC than I have other $20 pieces of DLC or even full games. It was well worth it. I handed over money before I knew what it was because I know I would buy it anyways. No need to wait and end up paying more. Anyways, I'll most likely be getting Elite again for Black Ops 2. Along with any other games that have a season pass. |

Like CoD or not. Elite is a huge success for Activision. What personally interest me is if they continue the support after the release of black ops 2, will there be a new premium service or will the current one be adapted to black ops 2? Guess we will see after the release if the Elite is also a success for the fanbase |

@23, fair enough, there are those who enjoy it, but it still seems a not so bright move to pay twice for a game, when you have no idea what the second thing you pay for will be like, the list is a letdown to what you're getting, when compared to what it would of been, hence why I found the list so funny to read. (especially the spec ops missions... one mission... wtf) @24, allot bash CoD because CoD isn't that great of a game, and it gets all the attention, people blindly handing money out for something no-one knows anything about, thats not a very bright thing to do :/ You could compare that to other dlc or games/movies act, but you don't buy them blindly normally, you do know things about them before hand. CoD is a game that does insult it's fans quite a bit in a lot of ways, much like how capcom have insulted a lot of their various fan base's, and overly milk allot of their games (street fighter things... good god are they milked) On the bright side, treyarch do try to add new things to make their game different, zombie mode was a great success in waw, and marginal success in BO, as was theatre, though it's useless for machinima makers due to the character models. Where as infinity ward, made a brilliant game, then made it more accessible to noobs, then didn't change it at all after 2 years. One of my bigger gripes, is how other games change to allow their multiplayer to be nicer towards new players, making it more 'cod like' in how it's played, instead of making it challenging, or have a learning curve. The main reason I no longer like cod, is, other then the laziness of the games and insulting hits towards their fan base, is how anyone can play it. Thats a reason I prefer Halo's multiplayer, because it's challenging compared to CoD, or shadow run, chrome hounds(when you could play multiplayer), gears of war, ect. It is my opinion at the end of the day, however, ALOT of others have the adsact same or similar opinion to me, thats why so many complain towards CoD, because of the reasons i listed just a little up. CoD is made for money, not for fans. Treyarch fill some of the gap, but its still just money making, more then fan satisfaction. |

I paid for Elite and I'm glad I did. It's saved me a lot of money. I would have got all the DLC for MW3 one way or another. Why am I an idiot for gettting cheaper, and sooner, by paying for Elite? Just because you don't like MW3 and wouldn't have any benifit from buying Elite? Yeah, that makes sense O_o I'm not a Gears fan so I didn't buy the season pass for Gears 3. I don't want any of the DLC. Doesn't mean I'm going call people idiots just because they want to save money. I'm not going to renew Elite either because I have no interest in Black Ops 2, especially zombies which will probably be a big focus of the DLC. Go ahead and vote Thumbs Down, it will just confirm that you are the only idiots. |

@17 'You do get less for your money then what you get with other games. Never mind the ;services' which should be free, and are free in other places, sites such as game battles, for instance for clan tracking, halo has complete stat tracking' Elites stat-tracking is also free. Clearly you haven't done any research before running your mouth, so hence I don't see why anyone should listen to a thing you say. OT: Whilst I don't possess Elite, or MW3 for that matter, I don't see how anyone can call it 'a waste of money'. Sorry, but if people are enjoying the content that they've paid for, evidently it wasn't. If they were getting shafted I could understand, but from the amount of maps that appear to have been put out, I don't see it. You're all just jumping on the CoD hate bandwagon, because it's the 'cool' thing to do nowadays. It's just a shame the people who don't acquiesce to jumping on that particular bandwagon get looked on as 'inferior', but oh well, whatever makes you feel better about yourself... |

@30, you just missed the point of some of what I just said, I said it's not that bright, because you are handing over a large amount of money, some something you have no idea what you'll be getting, I didn't buy the season pass for gears3, but know a fair bit about the dlc generally, to have blindly put faith into someone who has shown to over charge and lack development in their games isn't a bright move to make, without any info to back it up, however, the ones who got elite for a slight charge extra (fort which edition that was) thats fair enough to them, but the full whack of £40 is outrageous for any gamer to pay after just buying the game. If you'd already chosen to buy them because it was your first CoD game, o just like the series, its up to you, but for value for money, it's debatable if it's honestly worth it. It's not just because I don't like the game, I've not liked any of the games after MW1, though I have checked everything I can to kept my opinions at least valid, instead of pointless arguments. I wouldn't want to buy elite for any game, because what it gives you, are features that should be free, stat tracking, clan support ect. the only reason to buy elite would be for the dlc all in one, but i just don't see the dlc content as being worth it, when compared to dlc for other AAA titles, though if you replay and enjoy, then fair enough to you if you find it worthwhile, but would you do it for the next infinity ward game? When considering that there was next to no change between MW2 and MW3, would you thnk it was worth while for what would likely be the same thing again? would you blindly put your trust into them for something 'new' or pay for more of the same? My main fear, is how this elite thing, will alter other titlesand how it may backfire a good title. |

@31, fair enough to the stat tracking not being included, I wasn't sure off the top of my head wether it was or wasn't. But I have look into things about the game, both good and bad, but the bad outweighs the good imo. I fail to see it being worth the money, because I see a lack of innovation in whats been given so far. I didn't jump on the band wagon, I've not been a fan of the series since WaW, the only thing I liked about that game tbh was the zombie mode, that was the saving grace of that game that got better as it went. When I judge something, I look at every version of a game, look at the siilaritys and differences, look at it's impact on other games, look at it's impact in general gaming culture, I take in views from both ends, and give out my views, I see it as a waste, because i don't see the content as being anything special, and the spec ops missions seem like a waste, and I just can't justify paying for game modes, unless is was something like a zombie mode, something to that scale, I'd justify paying for it, but otherwise, I just don't see how paying for a game mode is worth it. I never bought the Halo Wars content, because it was paying for game modes, despite being a very big Halo fan. And my fear to what elite may do is above. |

@ 32 For the record, I had put "blind faith" into the Gears 3 Season Pass because Epic had never screwed up as bad as it did with Gears 3. (And I'm talking strictly DLC-wise, I won't even rant about how they messed up six years of story with Traviss' manure shoveling.) We're talking Horde Command Pack aka Disc-Locked-Content mostly; Horde fortification upgrades (lol?), maps- some which would later be released for free, two of the three multiplayer characters were rehashes somehow (Bernie uses some of Sam's VA, BR Dizzy is a re-skin), and some horrid weapon skins (which honestly, probably should've been free.) Later, Forces of Nature makes you PAY for a gametype- which is an attempt (failure, in my humble opinion) to recreate a favorite from Gears 2, and a glitchy weapon skin. Before Gears 3, Epic had to actually EARN this type of maddog fanboy-ism. They made terrific FREE DLC with the original Gears of War, and I can honestly say that Gears 2 also had great content. (Needless to say; I was happy to pay for Gears of War full price twice, and bought Gears 2 at launch- with each subsequent DLC during they're respective releases.) COD on the other hand, doesn't have to work to earn a customer. Ninety percent of the XBL community KNOWS that most of their friends are going to play it, so it's a staple game. Therefore; a no-brainer (lol, couldn't resist xD) to consider buying a Season Pass to their regurgitated piece of software. |

@32, that is a good point, I was talking more about the general maps, not the just horde ones, I'll agree, that was a rip off, however, I don't agree with Karen travis, I really enjoyed the novels, after the first anyway, though the game felt cut back from the novels, several things generally let down, was very let down by the battle at anvil gate in the game, nothing like I imagined it to be, and very lack luster. The DLC was bettwe in gear 2, imo then gears 3, though I'm mostly against season passes generally, but at least the gears one was only 800 ms points (i think), so you don't see to loose much money. Though the new gears seems like just a cash in game. I'll be skipping that. |

@ 37 Despite three fourths of the internet actually "hating" Call of Duty, I'm just agreeing with some of it now because Modern Warfare 3 is in all honestly... boring. Essentially Modern Warfare 2, but with crappier mechanics and redundant weapons. (I mean seriously, who doesn't use an MP7 an ACR these days? I don't, but most people do.) So I don't think the Hasty Generalization is really adequate in this case. Meanwhile, Elite wasn't a "deal" either. Weren't the first two Collections just 50% a few weeks ago? (Correct me if I'm wrong, but Elite is supposed to save you 33% the ENTIRE DLC; meaning you can wait or skip Collections if you didn't get Elite. Which sounds like the better deal, unless you really like your Winter camo or the silly Emblem.) :p |

That's a minimum of 18 peices of DLC. We've actually ended up with 26. I was happy to pay for Elite before I knew exactly what we were getting, and it was the right choice. |

The DLC content for MW3 has been the best in the series. It added more than any other CoD an didn't bring back a bunch of maps from a previous game and make us pay for them again (Cod 4 maps on mw2 and zombie maps from w@w on black ops) They brought in more MP maps than hat came with the game, which I think is around 20 odd plus what came with the game. Thyey brought a tonne is spec ops and achievements in, and a new Face off mode. And now they are adding another mode called chaos. Now everyhing might not be perfect for everyone, I don't like face off, but no one can deny the quantity of content and I'd say 85% is worth the money. I've played 96 hours online and I'm in a clan, Mw3 came with my console an I got a 4200 point card for £30, elite although pretty piss poor in its actual stat tracking form is not good, but the clan support and early dlc + discount is worth it hands down. IMO 2.3 million out of 12 million customers isn't exactly that good, but I bet that number will rocket for black ops 2 subscribers. |

CEO Eric Hirshberg said the game has “several innovations and firsts for the franchise” So this means they changing the game to make it fun? Maybe also fixing the horrendously broken MP? Nah, that would take more time and money than even Activision has to dish out. This will be the same shit all over again. But the simply minded gamers will love it as usual.

| ill admit i bought the game and elite i like cod but it needs some major adding to the game its a good series but its running dry for me as for elite i felt ripped of in the terms of content and i know there different games but battlefield premium although i haven't got it seems more for your money because of weapons vehicles and other benefits. also id like to add there should be more measures to stop kids playing over age games i hate going on a 18+ game and there's some 13 year old going through early ages of puberty going all psycho and screaming through the mic i don't need to hear that an i bet nobody else does(although some are just funny to laugh at lol) good day to you all :) |

@ #61: Actually, I think the haters sound more like sheep than those posting that they bought Elite. "CoD is always the same game, Activision is greedy, only angry fat kids play CoD," and so on. Sound familiar, sheepy one? OT: I didn't play MW3 and probably never will. However, a quick DLC check shows that Infinity Ward/Activision has delivered enough content to make Elite worth it for someone who enjoys the game. Can't hate on that. |

| @65 I just don't feel like playing the same shit every year for 60 dollars + extra for DLC. But by your assumptions I guess you are a fat angry kid? |

| 2.3 million premium users and probably about 1/4 of those premium users actually take the game seriously and think that it's the greatest thing ever. |

| MW3, just another one of those stupid fucking games that ruin any chances at 100% achievements without forking over tons of cash for boring recycled maps and missions. Subscribing as a premium member is a joke. This is why Microsoft should allow requests to delete entire game history from your profile so you don't have to be ashamed that you ever played such a bullshit game. |

@72 Bungie.net gives you all Halo DLC for free??? Since when?? FFS people. We know some of you hate MW3, you don't have to keep going on about it. Obviously there are some people who like MW3. They aren't sheep for buying and playing a game they like. People are allowed different opinions, are allowed to like different things. And for those of us that do like MW3, Elite has been a great deal. It's not hard to see why, and if you still insist it's not just because YOU personally didn't like the game, then you are the idiot. It might not be a great deal for you, that doesn't mean it's not for anyone else. @68 Why do you assume every one of those 2.3 million just got Elite so they could get the extra achievements? You really think that? Despite the fact that extra achievements weren't confirmed until the first Spec Ops m ission was about to be released months after MW3 actually came out. @71 The multiplayer maps are not recycled. The only "old" one is Terminal, which was released for EVERYONE for FREE. The Spec-Ops missions are the only DLC that have achievements, and they are far from old or recycled. They are the most fun part of MW3. |

| I think this was the stupodest thing ever done. U pay money out the ass for a game that takes 6 hours to beat and then still go online to have retards cheat. So why make us wait for 1 extra content that should have come with the game to begin with and 2 why pay more money . If u lok at it a 60 bucl game that wasnt a limited edition just just turned into it cuz of elite. Cod basically turned into battlefeild. And gears of war did it to. When u have to pay 60 to play exra stuff thats right out bullshyt. If halo 4 does this im not even pickin up the game. We shouldnt have to pay more for what we already paid for . U would think since the economy is in a shyt state they would lower the prices but hey there all a bunch of fuckin assholes who dont carr |

@1 Probably technically belong to their unbeknownst dumbass parents. @2 Yup, its easy, ay. @3 Same here, bought it beat it, it beat me, then sold it within a week. @4 Probably, I have my doubts more over Xbox Live than Elite. @5 Thats why EA woke up in that department @6 Hit one of the nails on the head there, i'm in the same boat, bought the HE discounted, activated, never used. @7 No doubt it did. @8 Agreed, many people put many hours into it and the "benefits" of Elite way forward. @9 I think you should be able to back track as Elite DLC started with MW3 Now i'm bored, and everything now is a response or duplicated. I think when the next console generation starts, these yearly iterations should hopefully go away. |

@75 What? Why should the DLC come with the game? The OK-length campaign, 16 multiplayer maps (which also double up as 16 Spec Ops Survival maps) and 16 Spec-ops missions weren't enough? The ONLY edition that came with Elite included was the Hardened Edition, and yes, it was a Special Edition. Steelbook, Field Manual/Artbook type thing, Elite Premium + Founder Status. OK a few other bits would have been nice, but I'm not complaining. The difference in price between the regular edition + Elite seperatley and the Hardened Edition was enough to justify having the steelbook etc. CoD turned into Battlefield? Are you an idiot? You know Elite came out WAY before BF Premium. EA/Dice saw how well Elite did and decided they'd copy it, but not before they had released some DLC. So whilst everyone who hadn't got the DLC yet was fine, anyone who did felt like they were being ripped off. I know which of the 2 services I think is better just because of that fact! Having said that, for BF3 fans who will buy all DLC, Premium is a good deal. |

@75, that comments not to bright, why would you be given dlc on disk, when the dlc hasn't been created yet... :/ @77, Neither here, though gears3 cost a lot less, and the battlefield one, you already knew what the dlc was. |

| So everyone who likes COD is getting there subscriptions, 2.3 Million..ok and everyone wants them to stop, ? for ya..if your making that much $, are you going to stop? I don't think so..COD is a Juggernaut that people love to hate cause they are successful, I am not saying that people don't have a right to be angry at some of the things they do cause I understand..but don't be mad at them for people being obsessed with the game..just move on and play other awsome games |
