Modern Warfare 3 DLC season begins February 28 on PS3
The Piazza and Liberation maps will be available for Call of Duty Elite subscribers on the PS3 starting February 28th.
Activision has confused quite a number of Call of Duty fans with its tiered release of DLC for Modern Warfare 3. Two add-on maps are already available for the popular online shooter, but only for Call of Duty Elite subscribers on Xbox 360. Non-Elite players and those playing on PC and PS3 have been left out in the cold.
Well, one more piece of the puzzle has been put together. The Piazza and Liberation maps will be available for Call of Duty Elite subscribers on the PS3 starting February 28th.
If this is the start of a trend, it appears Elite members on PS3 will have to wait one month after their Xbox 360 counterparts to get their add-on content. That means February's map for Xbox 360 players should be available on PS3 in March. (See the full schedule here.)
"If you’re an Elite premium member, you’ll get a message at the MW3 multiplayer menu as soon as the content is available to download; from there, just select Store from the multiplayer menu and the downloads will be yours at no additional charge," the PlayStation.Blog details.
But what about non-Elite subscribers and PC players (who don't have the option to subscribe to Elite)? Unfortunately, it seems that your second-rate citizenship in the COD community will force you to wait for more information.

..which Infinity Ward forces, since they don't support 360 controller on their PC version, even though Treyarch supported the 360 controller on CoD:BLOPS PC and CoD:WaW PC.

And whatever happened to PC elite feature, is this never coming out? Funny thing is, after all the crap they have pulled with the DLC, I don't think I would even pay for the Elite account. Screw that...

It's to the point where you can't trust what the Call of Duty studios say about the PC version until about September or October, when they come out with the disappointing announcement that they're fencing in options. Infinity Ward did it with MW2 and IWNet; Treyarch did it with CoD:BLOPS having servers rented only from gameservers.com, and IW did it again with MW3 with community-hosted dedicated servers allowed only for unranked matches, as well as not allowing FOV changes. And CoD:Elite is STILL not available on PC, almost an entire quarter after release, with almost no explanation why.
As has been said years before, it's not like there aren't any people left at IW and Treyarch who don't remember the old days of Call of Duty being a PC-only game. Many developers at IW and Treyarch got in with help from the Call of Duty 4 mod tools; Infinity Ward hasn't offered mod tools since then (there's a mod tools package for CoD:BLOPS, but it wasn't available until almost half a year after release).
