They need to make that more like a real care package Soliders get.
Rahter than the fake one in the MP.

So that would mean the

  • The Game
  • Sun Screen
  • Beef Jerky
  • Candy
  • Drink Mix
  • Hygiene Products

They don't need to include the Elite pass because all those who got it with MW3 last year will auto-renew at full price just in time. :)

If you got the Hardened Edition of MW3 and used the code for Elite, it is set up (at least on Xbox) to NOT auto-renew.

I was passing on Elite this time anyway since the service wound up being largely a bust for me (only 2 or so of my friends go it, so we never got to play the new maps anyway), but it seems baffling that a year of Elite is not included at the very least in the Care Package edition.

Hardened looks very nice. Bought.

Wait though, they wanted everyone to pre-order in stages, so I already pre-ordered. Will I lose my stage 1 pre-ordered goodies if I switch to a new edition?
 
This doesn't look strong. As for the Hardened edition, you can already get Nuketown 2025 (dunno if that includes "Nuketown Zombies") at select retailers, then a bunch of stuff many can do without: the case, the steelbook, the coin, the weapon/player card skins -- and finally there is the physical soundtrack, but the soundtrack to the first Black Ops was released digitally, and I assume so will this one.
 
Makes sense to not include the elite subscription. If you're willing to buy a remote bad control aircraft with the game, you'rare probably willing to drop another 60 on the season pass.

I was waiting for this hoping that they'd throw another year of Elite in. Guess it's the regular ol' edition for me!

An authentic rations pack would be really interesting, yeah. I guess for dietary and shelf life reasons it'll never happen. Maybe they could do something pre-orders online so they don't oversell it.
