Yeah, I was there, I quit playing, got banned from their discord for saying the automaton broadcast was repeating "N I GG 3 R beta 1.2.4 protocol..." When you say nigger on a pozzed server, it is like the fucking Gestapo,

And don't forget matchmaking didn't work for 5 weeks. I won't. )

>Indirectly describes the destiny 2 experience but with less political propaganda
>Bungie is also a SONY owned company
>No TRANS@BUNGIE pozzed bullshit in game yet

First time? I bet most of their laid off staff went over to arrowhead to pull the exact same bullshit.

 

[Small G genocide]

It's cool that arrowhead listened to feedback and did a 180 etc etc blah blah blah.

The one thing that puzzles me about this whole saga is sony fronted cash for the development of HD2, so in turn wanted the account linking so they could presumably use those stats for active player numbers in their quarterly reports to investors, and presumably to email those same people. Fine, they funded it, they get to make these requests.
Players complained for a variety of reasons. Several amongst them were some variation of "Playstation network doesnt work in my location"/"I'm not able to sign up for PSN" etc. PSN is a sony product, they could change the sign up requirements in a heartbeat if they wanted to. Why was this drama not a catalyst to get that sorted? It's totally unhinged to think that a ukranian can't sign up for PSN without a ps5 (They cant do it via PC), and instead of saying "Oh yeah that is really weird, lets fix it", Sony were willing to let arrowhead reneg on whatever agreement they had due to the review bombing and just continue with whatever backwards policies they had for PSN, without review.

So, when you fight back you win? Imagine what this world could be like if this rule was applied to other things in the judeo-communized west, like nigger'd currencies, border invaders, and dual-citizens to foreign desert lands in government.

 

[Dr. Henry Armitage]

I'm still not changing my review. I don't think for even a second they're gonna let this go and not try something again.

 

[Kier Starmer]

We won but still not buying the game again, had it on ps5 before the thing bricked. Arrowhead should have had a bigger backbone from the start and said "look we are majority pc gamers and the Snoy login won't do well." They were probably strongarmed into it but I hope this shows Snoy that if you want to sell PC copies, you have to deal with PC gamer basics and no multiple login shit. There is a reason the epik shit store is not even touching my pc.

It's cool that arrowhead listened to feedback and did a 180 etc etc blah blah blah.

NGL, most of these excuses are retarded and on the level of "Well my life was "busy" 2 years ago, so I couldn't play last month and can't be bothered to even learn any game mechanics like DSP." Shit that I frequently encountered on Destiny 2's LFG and this attitude has spread out into other games.

*lowkey expects you to carry their lazy nigger ass and everyone will make excuses for them but will kick you at any moment for the hell of it.*

 

[oh no its pipkun]

For that, I'd consider leaving my negative review out of principle. They're not entitled to anything.

hold on, if the psn requirement was there from the start but technically unfeasible at the time of launch, why did Arrowhead sell the game in countries that can't make PSN accounts?

 

[Cowboy Christ]

Technical issues at launch preventing one of the dumbest ideas they could think of but they did it anyway aside, you cannot convince me there wasn't jealously from how well HD2 was doing on PC.
Some people saw a great opportunity to juice the PissStation Netowork numbers, a couple of suits higher up beyond the clouds had to recognise this would be a TF2 Spy backstab that would funnel people towards the console.
Watch this, they're gonna just make the PS6 swanp green to represent all the envy.

 

[Sundae]

Always good to see the gaming community get a win like this, fuck these corporations who think they can screw over their customers.

Pretty sad to be a Sony fan if you weren't even around for the Playstation 2, which had, in my opinion, the best console game library of all time. It was certainly the high water mark for the company, and a gold standard that each successive console has fallen further and further short of. By comparison the PS5 is a paperweight.

The PS2/Gamecube/Original Xbox era was a golden era in gaming. With each console generation since, I miss it more and more.

 

[Ravier Xavenblood]

Never stop rising up, gamers.

 

[HOMO FOR LIFE RETURNS]

Arrowhead always had good sense of humor at least, this made me laugh

Holy shit I'd buy this lol

 

[dustbuster]

You don't relent with cunts who are going to do it again

They publicly and fully reversed their decision you ragebaby.
Further, they're now scrapping similar plans for Ghosts of Tsushima
Are you expecting a seat on their board or something?

 

[Astro Galactic Megalul]

You always do, be careful who you enter business with because once they fuck up you fuck up. I'm tired of treating devs like they're toddlers that daddy publishers keep leading down the wrong path, they're not fucking babies they're adults and if they decided to tie themselves to ill reputed companies when they have to do some retarded corpo choice they should also get the same facefull of dick the parent company does.

What's funny is that Arrowhead was fucked over by Paradox when they were making their first game, Magicka, losing rights to the franchise, with their baby ending up in the hands of an incompetent developer as a result, who fucked up the sequel that Paradox mandated. That and getting shafted on profits.

Now Sony is walking over them, squandering a ton of good will Arrowhead rightfully earned. But it was due to AH's own stupidity that they entered this partnership in the first place.
They knew about PSN requirement 6 months prior to release. Did it never occur to them that half the globe doesn't have access to it, and that adding extra hoops to jump through increases barrier to entry and would inherently cost them not an insignificant amount of potential customers? If they weren't forced to turn off the fucking thing on release in order to let people actually play, this might've all been a lot different, not in a good way.
I guess when you're a privileged 1st world inhabitant, things like that don't cross your mind.
Sony forcing this shit on them was always going to have negative consequences for the studio and their game. There's no valid reason for this PSN bullshit, it's all Sony's ulterior motives and nothing else.

Holy shit I'd buy this lol

If they make it a reward for voluntarily linking your Steam account to PSN, it would be a 10/10 shitpost

hold on, if the psn requirement was there from the start but technically unfeasible at the time of launch, why did Arrowhead sell the game in countries that can't make PSN accounts?

These retards just didn't think it through I think, the situation was gravely mismanaged.

 

[oh no its pipkun]

for now. they can always try later.

 

[Anti Lolicon Bomb]

So, when you fight back you win? Imagine what this world could be like if this rule was applied to other things in the judeo-communized west, like nigger'd currencies, border invaders, and dual-citizens to foreign desert lands in government.

Nobody in the west cares about that though, just bing bing wahoo and the right to goon.

 

[Brigadoom]

I'm gonna make a prediction and check back in 6 months:
>GTA6 will be a dumpster fire
>All triple A games will have ESG/kike shit out the ass and their won't ever be another Elden Ring tier game
>Every promising indie game will have ESG or be a bait and switch
>Japan will bend the knee hard enough that they will start uglifying/trooning their anime characters
>Gaben will die of a "heart attack" and the company will be taken over by kikes and ruined within months

As much as I try to be positive these days it annoys me that all of these are plausible scenarios. I really hope I'm wrong about Steam because if that gets kiked into oblivion like Sony & Microsoft then gaming is going to take a huge hit it might not recover from. For every game company that treats it's customers like human beings instead of a number, you have a 100 more willing to crank out Call of Battle Theft 7: Troon City which requires you to insert money every 5 minutes of gameplay.

hold on, if the psn requirement was there from the start but technically unfeasible at the time of launch, why did Arrowhead sell the game in countries that can't make PSN accounts?

That's the question most are asking. From what I've saw it looks like it wasn't supposed to be a requirement at all until Sony had their period and decided to pull a bait and switch. Arrowhead are now saying they knew about it from the start but it reeks of gunt guarding to me. If Arrowhead really did know about it then saying it publicly was stupid on their part. They are fully admitting they either sold a product that wasn't as advertised or they were too incompetent to check that all those countries they were selling too could actually use the product they sold. In either case it's fucked up and will make a lot of people think twice before spending even more money on their products.

Everyones fed up with having to have 30 accounts to play one game or access one thing, people are just fed up with it. Let everyone download game and hit play with no bullshittery in the mix and everyone would be happy.

Right, I can click "Play" and fire up Kenshi or Containment Breach with no internet connection or anything else just like a game from the 00's.

Hell, at this point I just download old classics from those abandonware sites and play them. Some good nostalgia booting up Windows 3.1x in a virtual machine and hearing those sounds again.

 

[Kotol]

People like to make fun of the "angy babyrage gamerz" and calling them entitled, yadda yadda, but Null really was up to something when he said "Become unhinged."

Nowadays, you cannot in good faith reason with retards like Sony. They will always try to fuck you over as much as they are legally allowed to, and the only way to make them stop dead in their tracks (at least for a while until the dust has settled and everyone moved on) is to quite literally threaten to burn everything down, just like the peaceful protestors during the Saint Floyd riots. We got where we are today by compromising and coping and sneeding that "Things can't get any worse, right?" or "Surely they wouldn't do something this dumb, greedy and condescending?". It all started with horse armor, and now Ubisoft is selling 140 dollar editions for games that look like shit and will probably play like shit too. Shit, 140 dollars bought you entire collectors editions with actual shit you could put on your shelves, now 140 dollars is the "Base game + Year 1 Season Pass + random shit nobody needs" edition and the base game has already had around 30% of already programmed and ready-to-go content cut from it to be sold at a premium later.

Why do American scholars/youths/spring breakers get their wish? Because they threaten to burn shit to the ground at the slightest inconvenience. Gamers have just finally caught up how to play the game of real life economics. Also, optics do not matter and never have. Retards calling you crybabies is less than nothing to be afraid, because they outed themselves as retards in the process and now you have another retard to make fun of.

 

[dustbuster]

Gaben will die of a "heart attack" and the company will be taken over by kikes and ruined within months

They only have so many glowie guns and there are 10 more boeing whistle-blowers to "die suddenly"

 

[The Tall Man]

Why was this drama not a catalyst to get that sorted?

Probably because PSN could be illegal in those countries.
It's an extraction tool for personal information tied to a draconian contract.

My guess is Steam didn't want to deal with the angry players so they allowed refunds and Sony saw the numbers go down and panicked.
They will make sure the next time to be save from refunds.
