Since Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 released, the Call of Duty Elite service has been absolutely blitzed and mostly unavailable. As Beachhead Studios increases their server capacity, they announced a method to do right by their most loyal subscribers.
“And for our premium members who are Founders, know that granting your status and delivering your in-game benefits in MW3 is a priority,” revealed Beachhead. “Also, to ensure that every premium member receives their full money’s worth, we are immediately and automatically extending your membership to Call of Duty Elite by 30 days at no additional cost. If you’re still considering becoming a premium member, we’re going to extend Founder eligibility until the end of the month, and you will also receive the additional 30 days of access.”
