Alright, one more time

that's about the most unreliable source i have ever in my life laid eyes on!

I would be happy if it came out any of those days. As long as it comes out before August, im happy.

yeah it has to come out before summer vacation is over so people can have more time to play it

maybe, but since we dont have much info, we can only rely on info like this. If Bethesda wants to end speculation they should say the release date

Markus, How is it unreliable? It seems fine.

BF3 Peremium is not worth it i buoght it and after 1 week i start gettin bored so i dont recommend buying it exept if you are a REAL hardcoe fan of BF3

Except that it's only a week between release dates for Battlefield 3, plus Premium negates that entirely by getting DLC even earlier.

Still... same scenario except just a different amount of time to wait

I would love to see this happen, i just hope that site can be trusted. - Againstallodds14
P.s. To me its Bs anyway if Dlc is going come out on all platforms then have the dlc come out on all platforms at the same time. this exclusive to one platform stuff needs to stop. it doesn't just anger the fans, it also hurts the dlc because the hype for the dlc is over after 30 days & half of the people that would of bought it, won't because the don't care anymore. but thats just my opinion.

It seems like wikipedia articles are "unreliable" but most times, they are true. Plus the website was last edited yesterday. Hopefully its write, but i wouldnt be surprised if your right.

This post is riddled with invalid and inaccurate information. It's not that Bethesda is being biased, Microsoft paid extra to get at least the first two DLC's exclusive to the Xbox for a limited time. Bethesda and Microsoft have a very long standing relationship, one above their's with Sony. Contrary to what you might believe, Microsoft isn't the only company to do this. Sony does the exact same thing. I laughed at "Microsoft is infamous for these kind of cheap tricks". You're talking like they're working some sort of dirty conspiracy to keep DLC temporarily out of Sony's and PC's hands. Do you realize how ridiculous that sounds? Lot's of companies do this, including your Sony. So you can't just criticize Microsoft for these "cheap tricks". Xbox users pay a yearly fee for their online service, for that Microsoft often goes out and constantly looks for deals and opportunities like this to "reward" their users and subscribers. I'm sure someone is going to come back with "you're an xbox guy", so let me put that to a rest now. I play on both the Xbox and PC and play Skyrim mostly on PC due to mods and it is for the PC in which I'll be purchasing Dawnguard again, so I'm waiting like the rest of you. However, I don't care or worry about things out of my control like the "dirty dealings" of Microsoft or any other company for that matter. Paying what $50-$60 a year, why shouldn't Microsoft lock in deals for early and temporary exclusive access to things like DLC. I apologize ahead of time if this sounds rude, just want people to understand things before going off.

Couldn't of said it better myself.

Sony right at E3 announced exclusive DLC for Far Cry 3, Assasin's Creed III and other things (as they did with the E3 before last). As this guy said, they're doing this to make gold subscribers feel satisfied with having Xbox Live. Sony does the same tactics with their PS+ with exclusive demos and betas. It's nothing new and will become fiercer later down the line.

You will not hear until AFTER the exclusivity contract has expired, otherwise it doesn't count as a proper exclusive.

» Fri Nov 16, 2012 7:13 pm

It's out when the contract is finished and 2k can be bothered to ship it.

It'll probably at least start releasing for other platforms on the 31st of this month, the first Tuesday after the thirty days exclusivity. I'm certain that Bethesda will try to release the new content ASAP. I mean, why wouldn't they? They want satisfied customers so that they can continue to sell games and DLC, right? It makes perfect sense.

It is supposed to be out July 25th. Google.

Google isn't a reliable source half the time.

» Fri Nov 16, 2012 11:24 pm

Maybe will never get it , they'll release it soon enough relax.

» Fri Nov 16, 2012 5:08 pm

I doubt it'll be out this month. End of next month if we're really lucky.

» Fri Nov 16, 2012 11:37 pm

My understanding was the xbox exclusive agreement lasted 30 days/1 month. I can't cite sources, so take it with a grain of salt obviously. That's also not to say that the soonest they can contractually release it is when they'll actually release it.

Markus, How is it unreliable? It seems fine.

It's a site called orcz.com, with no source. Frankly I feel like I need to run a virus scan after opening that link(and trust me, my browser history is not angelic). Why do they know this, but not a site people actually know like IGN, or Wikipedia? Why hasn't any official Bethesda source said something? These are basic critical thinking skills required when you're looking at the internet.

I doubt it'll be out this month. End of next month if we're really lucky.

Sadly this is probably far closer to the truth. I can't blame Beth for taking M$'s money, but it will piss me off if Beth turns what's supposed to be a "30 day exclusive" into a 60 or 90 day one.

I'm a very annoyed PS3 owner. Like a lot of people I do own both a PS3 & xBox 360, but I don't play games like elder scrolls on the xBox cause I find that RPG's with art the quality of elder scrolls aren't done justice on the 360, lets face it PS3 kills the 360 in every way except for online game play. Obviously Microsoft must have paid a ton to get the update first, but this is BS, give me my friggin Dawnguard add-on for my PS3. I've read some blogs that have the PS3 release coming out at the end of July, I've seen some that have it coming out in September.

» Fri Nov 16, 2012 11:35 pm

I would GUESS that the release date, which as of yet has not been officially announced, will be dependent on how many bugs they fix/try to fix before they release it

» Fri Nov 16, 2012 10:19 pm

Yeah, me too! I'm hoping it's still this month, but I doubt it..

I'm trying not too, I just want the contract hurry up and end, only one more dlc to go.

» Fri Nov 16, 2012 7:48 pm

I'd rather get a slightly buggy game at the end of this month rather than a bug-free game two months from now. It better come out before the calendar hits August because after that, back to school shopping (Bullet to the brain is a preferable alternative) and school applications will ruin the rest of the time.
