No, unless you like Xploder. The EliteBox and Elite sections are dead.

Elite was like the old premium but it was more of a one time donation to the site to get the premium section.

We use to have Premium, but NGU did away with it shortly after Elite was introduced, but still have the user group, for those of us that purchased Premium (before Elite was introduced) got grandfathered in, and will always still have it for as long as the user group is still here. If you where premium before, and purchased Elite, you will be Premium again when your Elite subscription expires instead of a standard/silver user how most people are that didn't get Premium before it was no longer available to redeem.

Hope that answered your question. Smile

No, Everything that I suspect you can get in Elite you can get just as easy elsewhere.

If you want to change your name all the time then sure its worth it but you don't really get that much with it, I don't even enter the Elite forums that often either .

Depends Elite atm seems to evolve around Call of Duty which sucks, still I usually just buy it to help NGU not as much for the content. :p

OK, so is Elite worth it? The big question ...

It all really depends on what you're after. If you're a fan of the website and use it often, I'd say it's most definitely worth it. You'll get tons of extra forum perks; changing userbar, username color, free username changes, more vbux per post, more signature space, etc. - there are way too many for me to You must login or register to view this content.. Not only that but of course it's known that you're a supporter of the site, for some people it is worth it for that alone.

If you're not a big fan of the site, that's fine - you may just like to browse it here and there and you're wondering if it's worth buying. In that sense, if you're interested in buying Xploder then I would say it's 100% worth getting, after taking away the price of that it is only about $5 a year. We also have some gaming cheats, tricks and exploits which are exclusive to Elite, alongside all sorts of user content which helps in that its collated in one place.

None of this appeal to you? Well, we're working on that. We're building a new Elite dashboard which will give you much greater site support, exclusive redeemable codes, betas and such from various game developers and much more. This will be something we're always working on.

So, perhaps you would like Elite because you'll get the Xploder and some other exploits, or perhaps you'd like Elite to get some extra forum features. Or you may just want to get everything on NextGenUpdate first and get the most out of your entire NGU experience (which Elites always will), not to mention that for non-premiums you'll stop seeing adverts when you buy Elite, premium is no longer on offer. Maybe Elite isn't your cup of tea, which is fine, but perhaps one day it will be - we're always going to be growing and expanding the subscription.
