Sony they saivior if gaming based on comments on n4g.

INMATEofARKHAM19d ago

Yeah, this site is crazy with the love for Sony. I normally just find it funny but in the latest HD2 stories I find it incredibly sad and frustrating. First and foremost, we are all consumers and we should fight for each other, not corporations that only care about your wallet.

Terry_B19d ago

Just some days and a solution is found.

Not our fault there is nothing to like on xbox..

@Cacabunga
Your comment is rich considering that this topic is related to PC gaming :)
Care to elaborate on what Xbox has to do with PC gaming or this discussion.

Sony is a mess... Have been for years. Only their corporate shilling fanbase doesn't see it.

anast18d ago

Who else is doing it better?

XiNatsuDragnel19d ago

Yeah no Sony here messed up if they were going to do this you should've gotten support for psn in those 170 countries so yeah Sony take this L. Arrowhead I'm sorry guys.

Extermin8or3_19d ago

The lack of support is mostly down to legal reasons. There are only 197 countries on earth, no way 170 countries lack support.

MrDead19d ago

It's easy to fix, just don't go ahead with the subscription requirement. This is money men wanting numbers

TechRaptor19d ago

There is no subscription requirement there - just an account.

Part of the problem is how few countries PSN officially supports, and that if you sign for a different region Sony has the right to ban your account. There are also some issues about Sony's history of very poor data security.

Steelerman19d ago

There isn't currently a subscription requirement, you're right. But I foresee this becoming a thing they push a subscription for. They will require all pc games from sony to have the sony launcher/account and then force a subscription to play online multiplayer on those games. It's the only reason they'll hang on to this if they do.

And yet, 91k players currently on Steam.
13th with only legendary games like DOTA2, GTAV and Counterstrike above it

Controversy my arse.

yeh true, it has fallen out the top 10 though with the ban hammer coming down on those countries. terrible decision

PhillyDonJawn19d ago (Edited 19d ago )

Boycott Sony till they allow ppl to play without account

CornholioX19d ago (Edited 19d ago )

Try it with EA and Ubisoft. It's just the same. you buy games on steam that comes from other publishers, you need an account too to play.

BeHunted19d ago

Sony launched the game globally, and it was purchased by people on Steam. Sony mandated linking the game to a PSN account months later, then proceeded to delist the game from over 100 countries, thereby revoking gamers' access. Next Level Scam.

Neonridr18d ago

it's one thing to require it BEFORE you buy a game. Instituting it afterwards is shady AF.

Helldivers 2 weapon rebalancing to get massive buff with studio’s new Chief Creative Officer

Pilestedt writes: "Very good question. First thing we got to do is ensure we get more devs time playing the game. It's hard to make the right decisions if the eyes aren't on the road.

Secondly, I want to ensure we actively look at the sentiment and create a holistic view of WHY feedback is given. And my working theory is that TTK is too high."

Some Helldivers 2 Players Can't Get Over Yet Another Delay

Helldivers 2 Community Manager announced the delay of the next patch, angering some fans. Players point out why the delay is actually good.

This isn't news... "People are angry, people aren't angry."

Would prefer they take longer to release content that is good than release mediocre content at a fast pace.

northpaws6h ago(Edited 6h ago)

Sums up people nowaday, they complain if you releasing stuff without enough testing and then they get mad if you take your time to test.

Humans = complain/argue for about everything.
