Helldivers 2 - Hell is more diverse than ever as PlayStation's demographics continue to grow and change.

Some devs also simply take money from "publishers" that helps them funding their project or get the marketing drum rolling. If you tell me there wasn't a decent amount of YouTubers payed off by Sony for playing and clipping this game for PR, I would say you're exactly as stupid as they want their customers.

 

[Spud]

Hell, this is basically what Starsector did, and that one is a one-man show.

You buy Starsector through their own website, they don't sell it on either steam or GOG. Great game, absolutely worth the money and it's half the price of HD2

 

[Man at Arms]

So in addition to the raiding of irrelevant shit like tekken tournaments, you see shit like this flying by in the discord's main chat.
This is levels of retarded overreaction I've not seen in a while.

Wym, just the other day no pussy no work was going. This is par for the course

 

[That Chris Guy]

I tried this with 115 hours of playtime. I received a very blunt rejection that >2 = denied. This is my fault for thinking that something nice could possibly exist within the realm that is modern gaming.

Your first mistake was buying an online-only game.
Your second mistake was thinking that a live service game could ever be good.
It was fucked from Day 1. Just remember that these are always red flags that assure the game can turn from GOTY material to fucking you in the ass on a whim.

For anyone who wants a somewhat old version for free with a CD Key that works on multiple accounts.

 

[Smashed & Slamed]

It's possible that crowdfunding wasn't an option for them.
Taxmen of some European countries are rather nasty with crowdsourced funding.

They could have just picked a less aids publisher like THQ Nordic. It's strange that an Eurofag company picked a Jap publisher. Doubly so when that Jap publisher is Sony.

I wonder if it was Sony or Steam who delisted all these countries. Valve may want to get ahead of their customer complaints.

There's just a teeny tiny little issue in delisting games on Steam. If a game got assigned to your Steam account, be it by store purchase/giveaway or CD key, you can still install it and play it.

For example, my Steam account has SpinTires. It's been delisted for years now, but I got my copy from a CD key. I can still install it and play it, even though it's store page is gone. And all the workshop content is still alive, and people keep adding to it. I can't get any DLC's for it without piracy, but I can still play what I had assigned to my account.

My account also has the old GTA Trilogy you cannot buy anymore which I paid for, and I can still install it and play it. I also have freebies like DiRT 3 that have been since delisted, but again, can install and play them.

This means that all the people that paid for Helldivers 2 in the delisted countries can still install and play it, but due to Snoy's rapist mentality they can't. If anything, people in the countries that have been delisted are even more likely to get a refund from Steam if they use the forced legal agreements, and the fact that they have been locked out of a game they paid for.

Arrowhead CEO, Sony really fucked them over.

Arrowhead CEO, Sony really fucked them over.

When pressured he admits that he knew for 6 months before launch it would be mandatory. No real sympathy for this shit show now, they did it to themselves.

Smart play would be you'd refund now and pick the game up again at a deep discount when its on sale in 6 months

Refund now, use half of that money to buy a grey market key in a week when the price drops further because of the drama, buy a second videogame.

Nevermind then, but still this doesn't explain them allowing people in non-PSN countries to purchase and play. Maliciousness or retardation?

 

[Gilgamesh!]

I am worried for this game. I am trying not to be too cynical, but I think that Sony might not budge. Simply because they already got their money from a massive amount of sales. But the refunds from PC sales are perhaps the only way this will actually hurt Sony. I want to remain optimistic, but this is also the same company that is making this retarded decision in the first place.

The hilarious part is that this would all be a non-issue if PSN was just supported in more places, and did not require PII.
If we lived in where that was the case, it would be as simple as:
>Make PSN account
>Use Throwaway email
>Name: John Doe
>Connect
>Done

Some of these dudes who suck Soyny's cock are also in their late 20s / early 30s and have kids. These dudes are grown ass fucking men who defend a multi-billion company who doesn't give a single fuck about them. Sony only gives a fuck about your money you retards.

Christ. I knew people were being retarded faggots, but I didn't know it was just straight up "crabs in a pot" tier.
I genuinely just don't understand the retardation with these people. I didn't understand it during the console wars back in the day either.
What's even funnier is that online capability for most of sony's things used to be free. I remember back in the day with PS3 you didn't have to pay anything. Meanwhile Sony takes that away and these retards still defend them. Amazing.

Something to keep in mind is that, legally speaking, Sony owns the Helldivers IP.

That means whatever Sony demands is the bottom line because Stone Cold said so.
I have my own issues with how Arrowhead has handled things, but the issue of PSN requirement is seemingly out of their hands.

Well the CMS they hired are fucking retarded for sure but this isn't helping Arrowheads case that it was 100% a Sony decision.



The other is....Arrowhead should have known better to use the carrot not the stick for this. After the massive success of the game the best way forward would have been to announce a free warbond (or weapon/cape/etc) for PC people that signed up for PSN Network. Every level of management from Arrowhead to Sony dropped the ball on this one and unless Sony backs off I really do wonder how many the numbers are gonna drop May 30th.

Refund now, use half of that money to buy a grey market key in a week when the price drops further because of the drama, buy a second videogame.

Or, hear me out on this one, get yourself something nice and tangible for that 40$, like a mug or a nice meal, and then pirate some games to play for free. The only way you can tell Snoy to fuck off is if you actively refuse to consume their product. The grey market key thing will give them the message that people still want to play it and they're fine with giving Snoy more power.

Besides the review bombing, make fucking sure that the player count goes down. Otherwise, you're sending the same message that people who were boycotting Modern Warfare 2 were sending:

It's not just about the money, it's also about showing Snoy that you won't play by their rules. Helldivers 2 was a success thanks to the Steam playerbase. Take that away from them too, make their playerbase numbers plummet on top of the financial impact. Don't give in and make a PSN account with a grey market key like a nigger cattle. If you do, you get what you fucking deserve and you deserve even worse ass raping in the future.

Guntlemen, we're reaching new depths.

51% all reviews average. Soon it'll go into negatives.

 

[Whoopsie Daisy]

Where are they saying this?
I might as well laugh at them while directly observing the retardation from the source.

Any of the gaming forums; reddit, neogaf, reee.

Some of these dudes who suck Soyny's cock are also in their late 20s / early 30s and have kids. These dudes are grown ass fucking men who defend a multi-billion company who doesn't give a single fuck about them. Sony only gives a fuck about your money you retards.

Exactly, and when pressed, these cock suckers can't explain WHY being forced to sign-in to PSN benefits them as customers.

I genuinely can't believe they're saying this, it's too retarded even for them to be this much of a cattle. Seriously, if they're actually saying this, then sheep in pastures have better critical thinking abilities than Sonyggers do.

It's one of the many talking points:
"It only takes 120 seconds/2 minutes (they use both) to make an account"
"If you can afford a PC you can afford to pay to play online"
"Nobody bitched when Acti/Ea/Ubislop forced sign-in to their networks on consoles"
"It's only a problem now because it's Sony doing it"

It's funny as fuck to be honest. I hope Steam drop HD2 from the store or Sony pull it from Steam. I want to see the reaction of the Sonyggers when HD2 fails and the player base disintegrates because it was propped up by steam.

At least Sucker Punch (the devs of Ghost of Tsushima ) paid attention and are upfront with this crap making PSN Requirements very clear

Imo, these Soyny niggers are crying on the inside because they pay PS Plus to use the internet connection they already pay for. Instead of saying fuck you to Soyny for making them pay to play multiplayer games these retards accepted it like the good little cock suckers they are.

They seem to be getting answers like "are you certain that this will be true 2 months after release?".
