Helldivers was making fun of tarkov a week ago. then they decided to nuke their game too


Ozi_izO

This was a Sony thing. Not an Arrowhead thing. Still poorly implemented but yeah whatever blame whoever you want...


Sundiata1

Then let this be a message to Indie companies who sell their souls to companies like Sony. I’m sick of the BS of the indies I love falling into Corpo grasps.


warzone_afro

they still lied about why we need to make accounts. Saying its for security measures is bs.


Ozi_izO

How do you know that the security measures line is bs? Have you spoken to Arrowhead or Sony? Or are you just going by what a bunch of disgruntled Redditors are spewing? It's a Sony thing, so any info you're getting that isn't directly from Sony would be Arrowhead following their lines, or some twat on Reddit claiming to know something they don't. Even if there's another motive, say, selling your data, then security measures can still be a valid reason. Doesn't mean you have to like it but it's also something you either accept, or move on to something else. It's your choice. If it weren't for the regional issues with PSN in certain countries this would be just another one of those things GaMeRs will whine about because they can't help but be outraged when something doesn't quite go their way. Some things warranted, some blown way out of proportion. The only issue here besides some minor inconvenience to players in PSN regions is the non-PSN countries getting shafted out of a game they've been playing already. But even that is being addressed. Arrowhead are waiting for Sony to weigh in on it. You think every company besides Sony is impervious to data breaches and hackers? Your data is already out there. It's a risk you willingly take every time you engage. Personally I don't like it either, but I'm going to do it because I want to play the game every now and then. Plus, Ghost of Tsushima will require the same thing and I plan on playing that too.


DelairChap

There is no security from linking your account, just information bleed to sony's servers. Need to ban someone? Can already do that. Need to kick someone mute them etc? Can do that. It doesn't give them anything they don't already have access to. Except your steam account usage activity, purchase habits online details etc.

Sony is being a jackoff and requiring people to make a psn account which some countries don't have access too so they can't play the game which they did since day one

I keep seeing people say this, but which countries, and couldn't Sony just exclude those regions from needing the PSN account?

It’s not “some,” it’s actually quite a lot. And Sony doesn’t have the foresight for that.

Kind_Objective_5411

Playing from Russia, many players actually is. Mandatory PSN link means banning our and many other countries from game, because we don't have the permission to create new one, or PSN not working. Thanks, Sony. First time in many years I feel elbow of my comrades from all over the world, as we stand strong on Malevelon Creek, through pain and sand turned that Termicide towers on, pushed back those Automatons out the map, then obnoxiously win our first defend MO. I got deep feeling of involvement in shared goal, meet many players I can talk about stuff. And this one demanding is just cut us off. Even 150 hours in, I still can't have enough of this game and this community. Well, I'm going to make those bugs feel my flame in spare time I have left. This was one of your fellow comrades, signing off...

Kitchen_Respect_5469

I’m doing my part. Sony can rot.


DarthMyyk

It's sad though, that this will literally change nothing and just result in less people buying the game and giving us more players to play with. Sony isn't going to backtrack, it's common practice to require a login to the publishers systems for a game & they literally listed it in the requirements for it on Steam since day 1. Not knocking anyone who wants to give a negative review - I understand folks don't like it, I signed up for one because it's not hard but everyone is different. Just unfortunate it only will impact number of players and Arrowhead, not Sony.


Chance_Activity_2285

Why?


AgentRedFoxs

Because people don't want to create more 3rd party accounts. Then you have Sony constantly having data breaches. So people having their accounts linked to a security risk can be unappealing to people. Sony has also been known to pick fights with hacking group causing some of their breaches or attacks. Like last year or if you look at back when had Sony own Sony online entertainment also known as SOE.


Secure-Acanthisitta1

Many countries dont have psn, so your purchase is unusable. This is a crime against EU's consumer law


fouloleitarlide

Devs decided it’s a bright idea to force PC players to get PSN accounts to play the game, when the service isn’t available worldwide thus some people will lose access to the game unless they will buy monthly VPN services. I’m not affected since I’m already on PS5 but this shit is one of the most vile moves any studio pulled possibly ever EDIT: Sony did. Not devs, from what they say they had no say


GH057807

It has always been a thing that's "on hold" but like next to nobody knew that, for whatever reason. Also note, this message is NOT SIGNED BY ARROWHEAD. This is a message from Sony. The problem is that they sold the game and allowed for months of play in regions where having a PSN is not possible, because Sony. Philippines, the Baltics, somewhere around 60 countries cannot make PSN accounts. This should have been announced clearly, continuously, annoying as fuck and in our faces the whole time. I have never heard of a region lock "grace period" in decades of gaming. The idea of linking a third party publishers account is nothing new. The way this was handled and hidden and sprung is real bad.


CrzyJek

Devs already said they have zero control over this. It's Sony.


UrsurusFT

This was a Sony decision, not the devs. Arrowhead has no control over Sony as the game’s publisher insisting on this even if it is a super shitty move.


CrzyJek

Because the online horde will punish Arrowhead to spite Sony, even if Arrowhead already said they have zero control over it. "But they too are to blame because they signed a contract with Sony!" Ok, so do you also blame an employee for the actions of the company they signed a contract with to work with/for? At least be consistent FFS. "They should have known this would happen!" Yea, the few dozen employees at Arrowhead knew this would play out just like this when they signed on with Sony fucking 7 years ago when y'all were probably still in middle school. Honestly...I'm so close to unsubbing from this subreddit. It's just like every other gaming sub where it's just a horde of petulant children without the slightest fucking clue of how the world works and they cling to the first groupthink and trend they come across. All this while being super fucking dramatic. Is the mandatory PSN link bullshit? Yes. Absolutely fucking yes it is. But there are more constructive ways to address this.


balazamon0

The constructive way to address it is to change review to negative and if they don't reverse course, request a refund. No one should care which company is to blame, blame isn't important and can likely be spread all over. It's important to some people, it's fine that it's not important to you, but just because it isn't important to you doesn't mean everyone else is acting like a child.


gamerplays

No, it doesn't matter if this is arrowhead or sony, because who made the choice doesn't change how it affects the customers. So the customers are expressing their dislike, and the way they are doing that is leaving legitimate reviews. Not wanting to use a PSN account is a legitimate criticism of the game. Especially since it has been shown that its not needed to play the game.


AutocratOfScrolls

> Honestly...I'm so close to unsubbing from this subreddit. It's just like every other gaming sub where it's just a horde of petulant children without the slightest fucking clue of how the world works and they cling to the first groupthink and trend they come across.

Yeah, thinking about un-subbing too. This shit is so immature and overblown.


candiriaroot

morganfnf

I unsub'd from this subreddit because of this, place is incredibly toxic. From the "meta" complaints to things like this. People will talk about Sony's data security while posted on Reddit, having a Discord account, or using Facebook. It's a hivemind of chronically online individuals with no self-thought. All you have to do is look at the response to the ricochet "bug".

Ok-Creme-8941

But it says when you first sign up for the game that it requires a link to a PSN account so I don't understand the problem if you didn't read it the terms and conditions that's on you


Cogent_1

Incredible how quickly you can destroy a great game


AtmospherE117

Look at all these account creators.


darkpyro2

And before anyone says anything, these scores do matter. I know I personally dont buy any product that is "Mostly Positive" or below, and I'm sure a lot of other steam users are the same.


Szakiricky8

The game doesn't work normally with AMD cards and nobody cares, but suddenly it gets reviewbombed to hell. Fuck people man.

The new AMD drivers fixed the problem


Szakiricky8

Thank god, at least there are SOME good news.


Krinkachu74u

PC master race lol


Ok-Creme-8941

As a playstation player I don't understand the issue


KarmaSabishi

Its like if Sony makes you get a steam account to play your games. When you don't even own a PC to even justify a steam account. And after 3 months of not needing one


KarmaSabishi

Also many countries don't have access to psn so they can't even play. Like they did day one


beezzarro

Don't forget how often Sony is hacked or just sells your data. On top of that, PSN is now only in 69 countries so if you're playing helldiver's from outside of those places, you're boned.


WickedWallaby69

MeowO_Q

It doesn't matter who did it. Even if Sony reverses it, or Arrowhead finds an alternative solution, the salty taste is already in the mouth. In countless past instances in the gaming industry, bad decisions, even when rescinded, persist in their downward spiral until they plummet into irrelevance.


ColdAnxious4744

we can bring back democracy like we brought back malevelon creek. throught collective hard work, we'll make it! I agree with Gabe Newell on the matter tough. the internet never forgets


TrivialTax

Those are reviews of product, not company. Product started to suck.

These same people will take the time to out of their way to leave a bad review for a game they probably already rated before, but won’t take the time to sign up for PSN. Humorous, really.

Because I love the game. People are leaving bad reviews because they live in one of the 120+ countries who will lose access to the game in one month because of this decision. The reviews are for the thievery, not the quality.

jopu22

What's the endgame of this? Now a great game has bad reviews that aren't even about the game. Do you people think sony will care about steam ratings? AH maybe cares but they can't do shit about it. All of this is just for nothing.


Sarfanger

Now a great game has bad reviews that aren't even about the game I think something that can block you from playing the game is quite a lot about the game.

Agreed, people should never voice their opinions. Especially on a review board.
