BeautifulTorment Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Yeah this kind of stuff should have been free the first time around... They probably made a lot of money off Elite the first time though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WOWJAREDISCOOL Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 According to the earnings report, they sold 7 million elite passes, (as of jan. 31) which added an extra 350Million dollars of revenue.. But then again if those 7 million people had bought the 60$ worth of maps they would've made 420Million.. So if they release the same amount of DLC, they will make more money. It makes sense.

biotransformatio Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 COD should have done the same as EA does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nasty_Rory Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Elite was free. You simply downloaded the app from the PS Store. Elite "Premium" wasnt. This was the one that gave you the dlc way ahead of those that were buying it in the collections. Like the last one, which the Premium subscribers got on a Tuesday and it was available to buy as a collection on the Wednesday. 24 hours later. Way ahead of the non-Premium that. Also for a long time only Premium members could progress your clan ranking. It doesnt matter to me anyway as I wont be buying Blops2, such was the pissing off that Activision gave over Elite. Nearly 6 months before you could play any clan ops! and even then it wasnt clan v clan like in KZ or similar games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parker Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Good, this is something that I felt should have been free in the first place, especially when their competition had something very similar for free. I guess this means the service won't auto renew, unless there will still be "Premium" for Modern Warfare 3. Parker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
