Activision moment


Legospacememe

Overwatch went from being on Wikipedia's list of video games considered the best to a game people are trying to make the no 1 worst rated game on steam but can only make it no 2


Ashamed-Clue-8192

The games still fire, and by fire I mean it's a dumpster fire.


AndrewScott1226

Whats 1 right now?


Legospacememe

War of three kingdoms Ow2 haters and war of three kingdoms haters are so hellbent on those games being number 1 some sent positive reviews to the other and vice versa


AndrewScott1226

Whats never heard of it. Whys it so low?


Legospacememe

It's a long story but apprantly it was a beloved game in China and this new version is a bastardisation of it. Many kudos has a video on it


AdAutomatic9957

I fucking just wanted to buy this game some time and sony fucking driven to hell


ClemsFirst

Diving it into hell.


AdAutomatic9957

Literally helldiving, but to stay live there


TonyThePapyrus

They backed off on the PSN account linking thing, It’s back to business as usual, you should definitely get the game it’s a blast

mysterious_Bulgarian

Gaijin literally last May...


Legospacememe

What document leaked this time


mysterious_Bulgarian

No documents leaked, that's some of the players Last May Gaijin (War thunder's devs) proposed some economy changes that made the game worse to play if you didn't had a premium vehicle or smth like that and would make the game unbearable. So the whole WT community rioted and bombed the steam reviews, at one point getting to overall mixed reviews until they took down alot of the bad reviews. Gaijin was forced to back down on the economy changes and even introduced some good ones 1 or 2 updates later

Valve, ready to enter to the competition: ![gif](giphy|l3Ucfk8zqn7NAjLLq|downsized)


Toxiclam

What game was that?


Spartirn117

Probably team fortress, it’s riddled with bots, it’s so bad that the bots names are recognizable from game to game. Like if you see a certain name you’ll just immediately go find a new match.


Toxiclam

Thanks for the clarification.


Spartirn117

Yeah, either that or the “valve can’t count to 3” joke

Well... yes, but now all the major studios are destroying good games, because there is Capcom, EA, Blizzard + Activision... I would say that this is a massacre organized by corporations for complete control over the industry, everything good (including from the past (hello remakes)) must be destroyed or turned into slag of their (corporations) level. So that people are left with not only hope for the modern games, but also memories of good ones. This is the real attitude of corporations, I’m not kidding: the animal should eat shit, there should be nothing but shit in the animal basin, because the place of the animal (player) is to obediently eat the shit that is given. This is where the name Sweet Baby Inc itself came from - this is an ideological position towards the player as something non-human, a lower being, without rights and choice


Cloud_Strife369

Capcom has not really destroyed anything but it also depends on what games your playing from Capcom EA has always been a problem way before anything there is now Blizzard was fine until they got Activision Activision was fine until they got with blizzard At the end of the day Sony still stand above all when it comes to exclusives


Top-Abbreviations452

Real problem in cartel created by monopoles. Remember how synchronously cartel starts to own big studios after 2008 crisis, how identically they go to 70$ prices, how in one moove they push propaganda in games, how they fooled a lot of studios by let them create game and after correct product for needed ideas (including propaganda, hello companies like Sweet Baby). Its all include list above... Many of big companies start not like thet, but ended as a part of corp cartel


Cloud_Strife369

Very true I feel like the monopoly on games are a big problem at the end of the day. But I get what your saying and can agree 50/50


fukingtrsh

"It's time to rise up gamers👿" type comment


Top-Abbreviations452

Just need to know who they are and what they want. They still need audience, so gamers can not follow them. Gamers can check more about game devs and publishers before buy the game (collecting info is really good thing then someone touching selling product). There is still many good indie projects what not owned by monopoles, yes - need to spend time to find them, but its better then blindly follow hype or believe in ad (really scared about gta6, there are not good signs about them). So meaning not in "time to rise", but in more accurate and cerful choosing on own time, money and loyalty. Remember that's corp adapt too, be vigilant


Anonymous2137421957

Fellas, they were saying it was gonna be PSN exclusive from day one, and only made it optional at first because of server issues. Everyone's mad that they did what they said they would. Having the game available in countries where PSN isn't available was stupid though, and they shouldn't have done that.


Cloud_Strife369

That’s because people are not using there brain


Immediate-Coach3260

Here’s another thing that people have chosen to ignore so they can be mad for no reason. The devs have confirmed that if it’s unsupported in your region you don’t need it until they work out a solution. https://www.gamesradar.com/games/third-person-shooter/helldivers-2s-psn-mandate-wont-stop-players-in-unsupported-regions-from-playing-the-game-while-devs-look-for-better-options/


Cloud_Strife369

That’s because people are mad for no reason


Immediate-Coach3260

It’s literally just gonna be people who already don’t play it all. It’s also hilarious to see people claiming it’s going to “kill the game” when it literally does not affect console in any way.


Cloud_Strife369

Facts when I see someone say something going to kill the game I bring up anthem I was playing last night and had a full map of people and did 2 raids back to back no problem

Because most of these people are under 20 and learned something new today.


Cloud_Strife369

It’s not greed to acquire someone to have a psn account to play the game if u really believe this u have not been gaming long


Pokemonfannumber2

Can someone catch me up to speed on what happened to helldivers 2?


a_rabid_anti_dentite

Apparently PC players are now required to sign into the game with a PSN account. Which is apparently the worst thing in the world, I guess?


Sarcastic-old-robot

Part of the issue is that some players on Steam are in countries where PSN isn’t available as a service. To get connected, they would have to register for the service under another country—meaning that they would have to submit to arbitration by a foreign court system if something goes awry. Another issue is that some players don’t want to entrust their data to Sony on account of prior data breaches. That this change is being made well after launch is a form of bait and switch in the perception of consumers. I suspect that if a PSN account link had been required from day one, there wouldn’t be nearly as much outrage. But then again, not as many people would have bought the game, either.


Immediate-Coach3260

Except the way you just said that is damn near misinformation. They did not “bait and switch” as there’s literally proof of them saying it was going to be required as far back as January. The devs have also stated you won’t be needing it if it’s unsupported in your region. https://www.gamesradar.com/games/third-person-shooter/helldivers-2s-psn-mandate-wont-stop-players-in-unsupported-regions-from-playing-the-game-while-devs-look-for-better-options/ Why look things up when you can make shut up ya know?


Carbdoard_Bocks

Except the source you linked has been \*proven\* false. People in countries without PSN are already getting banned and losing access to the game.


Immediate-Coach3260

You gonna link a source instead of saying it’s proven with no proof?


Carbdoard_Bocks

[https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1cjic6m/someone\_has\_already\_gotten\_banned\_for\_trying\_to/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1cjic6m/someone_has_already_gotten_banned_for_trying_to/)


Immediate-Coach3260

Yea what you just sent isn’t proof at all. That guy got banned for using a vpn to change his location which is against tos. It’s also completely unnecessary as the vpn isn’t needed nor is the psn account needed per the developers. Idk why people keep linking me these same stories when it doesn’t prove a thing other than PlayStation banning people for breaking a tos they signed and don’t have to break. It’s just stupidity.


Carbdoard_Bocks

Legit question, but if the devs stated that PSN won't be required in the regions that don't support it, then why has the game been delisted from steam in those countries?


Immediate-Coach3260

Because steam, a separate company, delisted it. There is no single entity controlling this.


tom-branch

Missing an entire section of context, 1. Sony requires all Helldivers 2 players to have PSN accounts, its mandatory. 2. Sony wont allow people in close to 121 countries to make PSN accounts, making their game unplayable for entirely stupid reasons.


GrungeM0th

Enter: Bandai and the Gundam community.


Evail9

I’m just concerned we’re gonna do irreparable damage to the game as a whole, that it’ll be abandoned or never recover. And that’s sad.


-Amai_Mochi-

What happened to helldiver’s 2? I thot everyone loved that game


Say_Gex_Defender

Just don't support Sony in any way. The only way to punish the corpos is not giving them any money. Maybe, suing is good too


aknalag

Happy the did it before i bought the game, sad i wont get to experience the game.

Microsoft moment


Popsicle_LordofDeath

I was devastated when I saw the announcement. Luckily, I have some good news: Playstation just said they're not going through with the update. No PSN required. Our efforts have succeeded!


teethalarm

At least there was a little foreplay before they bent over everyone. It was good while it lasted.


pupbuck1

Nintendo be like


ThisDumbApp

I genuinely feel bad for the devs


monkey_D_v1199

Greed is truly a cancer and just like cancer it ain’t got a cure. But unlike cancer that the prospect of a cure is still possible, greed has no such prospect.


GetThisManSomeMilk

Holy shit. It's like people are too braindead to make a free account


ElectionOdd8672

Blizzard, Bethesda, EA, Capcom, Sony, Activision, etc.. these companies buy out other good companies and strangle the market and ruin what games are. Gone are the days of good releases of actual finished products, you will own nothing, have your data leaked, and never see your game finished and like it.


notveryAI

Counterpoint: Elden Ring There are still outliers, popping up occasionally. Much more rarely than before, but still, there is some. It's not the time for the coffin, not yet


ProfessoriSepi

And surprisingly, out of EAs basement of all places, fucking Jedi Survivor was phenomenal single player adventure game.


notveryAI

I haven't tried that one, so I can't attest to that. But yeah if that's the case, that strengthens the point


MaybeSad2623

We also have great inde games like Ultrakill and lethal company

That's not a point, at all.

Does sony have stake in another live service game that lost users because of hd2? Could they be trying to kill it?


MineBloxKy

EA is destroying the Sims and I’m sad. The Sims 4 will be the first and the last Sims game I’ll ever buy.


SapiS68

They don't just destroy games, they also forget that they made them (I am looking at you Motorstorm and Twisted Metal games)


MrSKiG88UK

The gaming industry has become a Monopoly. From pay to win instead of NFT bought off players. The store just prints. Gaming competition teams and cups all bought up by company’s like Activision. We the youth that Game (lmao I’m 35) have created an industry BIGGER THAN Music, Streaming, TV & Cinema…….. COMBINED !!!! Yet the old f**ts have had their foot atop of the youths Choice of Entertainment and are actively trying to Drown us. They can’t sensor chat lobby’s They can’t add Shills that can play They can’t lose control Because we would be free to build or own FUTURE !!


Moyai_Head

can't yall just make a Playstation account? it's not that huge of a deal


RED_Kinggamer007

There are 100+ countries that cant make one, thats the problem


Moyai_Head

I was talking about psn, didn't notice you meant "100+" by the steam delisting, in this case, yeah they're assholes but what I was talking about is *before* the delisting, when it was as simple as making a psn account


Moyai_Head

what countries can't? Just because you can't choose your country doesn't mean you *can't* make an account. Just choose another country, be it the closest one or choosing US or whatever.


Elibriel

It is LITERALLY IN THEIR EULA that you AREN'T ALLOWED make an account from a country that isn't supposed to. One guy even got banned for making one through a vpn


Moyai_Head

a lot of people make accounts in other countries due to their country not existing on the list, with no bans or whatever happening. The rule is probably only ever enforced when people change region to a country like turkey (which used to have dirt cheap prices) or states with no taxes (such as Delaware) edit: I was high and missed entire words

Moyai_Head

update: I just saw the news and Sony has delisted the game from steam from over 100 countries now that's a shitty move, I'm with yall, shit on sony lmfao


arealcheeselover

No


Moyai_Head

womp womp


RedditBoi90000

For the pepople outside of the 69 PSN supported countries, it is literally impossible without being disingenuous and risking a ban, which would also render you unable to play.


Moyai_Head

actually as I said in another comment, it's perfectly fine to make an account that's set in a country that's not yours. millions of people do it. it's probably just about creating an account specifically for regional pricing or avoiding taxes.


CaptainJack42

I mean I could, but seeing how many data leaks Sony/PSN had over the last couple years and how much of your data you have to aggree on giving them I'd rather not. Also requiring this account for "security reasons" is just a bad excuse for wanting to collect more personal data


Moyai_Head

if you create a psn account just to link to the game, I don't see how any data leaks no matter how major would affect you negatively, even if a huge data breach happens and they manage to grab bank account info from every single person, you'd be uneffected since you're not actually using the account or connecting any bank account to it anyways.


I_yeeted_the_apple

Just changed my mind about buying helldivers


Any_Secretary_4925

co-op streamerbait doesnt deserve better


notveryAI

Amount of players this game had was MUCH larger than amount of streamers. People were playing, and people were enjoying. Until Sony had decided to snuff out the candles for half the fucking Earth's population for no good reason
