(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Straight up I think the service has been shit so far. I can't get out any invitations for my clan, and the statistical data for my account status is all wrong (accumulated weapon kills, etc.), and I can't even send out class changes through the website.

They provide us with premium talk shows such as weapon/map guides and Elite TV, but half of it is useless and the other hardly matches up to anything of worth. Not only that, but for us PS3 users not only do we have to deal with shit like this but we also have to wait a whole-month gap for the DLCs. Oh yeah, and it's been almost 4 months since ELITE and yet no clan ops. Smile

I ask that they give us compensation, but I doubt anything special will happen except for maybe double XP. After all, that's all they have ever done for compensations. But hey, all this is my own personal opinion. I'm wondering what do you guys think. Any pros and cons to the Elite service?

I don't understand the theater mode spectating limitations, theater mode in this game makes it seem like IW did not want to adopt something which was made fine by treyarch.


They could have simply built an engine similar to that of Treyarch. After all, they're both under Activision. I don't see no harm in doing so, and it's better off for the community.

No offence but this thread is going to lose what you intended it for.
You said elite PREMIUM, and now it has turned into what people hate about elite altogether.

From the premium side:
Yes it's been good.
Why?
Becuase im getting my regular dlc before other members. That is basically all premium is.

Elite premium for ps3 hasn't been worth it, clan ops aint out yet, and we still get it 1 month later then xbox, wasn't confirmed, rumors was that Microsoft ended contract, but we wasn't told we still get 1month later then xbox all DLC'S. But yeah...

Hasn't been worth it yet but I'm sure once the DLC has come out then it will have been.

For us ps3 members, elite is complete shit, it would be fine if map packs came out the same time as xbox, that's the only reason we all got it, map packs...

What discrimination? Xbox has a contract with IW and Activision so they can receive the DLC a month earlier. IW and Activision can't change that.

Discrimination?
No.
A multimillion dollar contract?
Yes.

Of course activision where not going to turn down an opportunity like that just to give Xbox users dlc first.
That's not discrimination, it's a Stratergy on microsofts part, and it is working.

Yes, discrimination, us ps3 gamers paid same amount that xbox users did for premium service, therefore the release dates should be equal, that contract should only be for non-premium members, and it can be argued, and look at the poll results, that's probably why most people regret buying elite.... Plus everytime new map pack video comes out, the video gets more dislikes than likes in just a few minutes, everybody bought it for free map packs, even you said it, you bought elite because you get map packs before EVERYONE else, that does include ps3 gamers, while we ps3 gamers, get it after xbox, which means that we paid for a service where we only get if before members on our console while xbox paid for a service where they get it before everyone instead of just people on their own console, so having activision say that we both get it before people on our own console doesn't get us even.
