    README before buying season pass!

    The season pass gives you 5 of the dlc for the price you would normally pay for 4, therefore I would STRONGLY advise you all to wait till the first dlc drop before giving them any money and see if the dlc is actually any good.

    It only takes one bad dlc for it to be better to buy just 4 of the dlc's and pay out in smaller amounts across the year instead of giving them all your cash up front in hope they produce good dlc.

    Time and time again I've seen people pay for these passes on games and in the end half of the dlc is forgettable or not fun to play, so at least wait till the first dlc drops and if its bad dont spend out and just buy the dlc's that are actually good, saves you all a fortune!

    These season passes are pay before you play, ask anyone in halo 4 if they wished they didn't buy the season pass and just bought one or none of the dlc. Rather than give up all our cash early regardless of how good the dlc is, let them produce something worthy of our money.

    I agree. I wish I hadn't bought the season pass for black ops 2. Only thing holding me back from trading it in for something else.

    Hopefully it will be like the Gears Of War 3 season pass and go on sale in a couple of months

    It's advice only, out of everyone I've spoken too in games with season passes that give such a little discount if you pay everything up front before even knowing the dlc. 9 out of 10 people always regret it and say they would of saved money buying just the few bits of dlc that were good instead of assuming they will all be amaizing and hand over cash blindly "in good faith".

    It's a false sales tactic attitude we have be moulded into thinking is a good thing, rather than them producing dlc and we go yay it's great and buy it.

    It forces them to actually produce each bit of dlc that's equally worth the money each time, instead of the "we got all your moneys now" attitude that promotes lazy developer content.

    Halo 4, BO2... The list goes on.

    If you go out and buy the season pass and they make 4 epic dlc's and one bad, the average joe who just bought the 4 epic dlc's would be of spent the same amount. That's off gambling on only one dlc bad...

    20% discount on 5 dlc's is not a good enough gamble in my eyes.
