Yesterdaywe reportedthatCall of Duty: World at Warwould offer multiplayer DLC at launch that would give paying customers a “Day 1 Advantage.” It was reported that this “advantage” would meanCoDgoing theTales of Vesperiaroute by offering experience points for a price.According to Treyarch, that’s notactuallytrue, although you can still get your hands on a multiplayer edge.
Despite the quotes that have been attributed to Activision, the game’s developer has clarified that there will not be any “Day 1” DLC:
Mentions about Day 1 content are actually a reference to what the marketing guys have been calling a “Day One Advantage” or a “Tactical Edge,” a program we have going with Gamestop. Users who pre-orderCall of Duty World at Warwith Gamestop, or who buy the collector’s edition from them, will get immediate access to a high-level rifle (for pre-orders) or LMG (for collector’s edition) that other players will have to unlock via ranking up in multiplayer.
So there you go. Treyarch is calling the whole thing a “misunderstanding” and has assured us thatlittle punk kidswon’t be able to kick your arse just because they stole their mum’s credit card and gained a few levels. There will be no “Day 1 DLC” from Activision in this case.
