Arrowhead keeps giving me reasons not to play the game I want to play the most
"unsure if I wanted to cry, scream dramatically into a pillow"
Seek help if a video game causes you to feel these extremities.
If a game gets you to that point out of frustration you need to seriously take a step back.
I’ve raged at a game and the way it knocked me out was the person I was seeing at the time literally got up and left the room. I was embarrassed by that and told myself I’d never let that happen again. I’ve never felt like crying out of frustration… that one’s a little beyond me, but if you get to that point, really step back and take a breather.
EMS Strike and few stun grenades got the job done. Keep killings until you are getting close to being overrun, then EMS strike at the drill, then a few grenades to hold them off.
The dark fluid mission was that most fun I’ve had on that game since launch. It was absolute chaos but it was very well done. I was very sad to see it go, it literally was the only thing i looked forward to playing after work.
I don't think they should apologize. It is evident that this is a response to the abuse that many users are sending their way.
Spritz : “Yeah, I was completely unaware how many countries didn’t have the ability to make a PSN account when I made that statement. I deeply regret implying that it was so easy for everyone to just sign up and not have to worry about it. It’s absolutely not our intention to force people to break Sony Terms of Services or just not play the game if they’re in a restricted region. There needs to be a better solution.”
Its not the fact that you need to create a new account to play the game ... its that fact that it was added later.
If it requires, it should've been there day 1, so that the players were aware day 1 what they are getting into. Not every PC gamer appreciates juggling multiple accounts/logins to play one damn game. So players who are not into this could've stayed away rather than sinking hundreds of hours into this good game.
^ ~ this is the part every other gamers are missing while dissing the PC helldivers community.
My opinion likely won't be a popular one with all the Sony fanboys, but it's the truth.
Firstly, 50% of the fault is with Arrowhead here and they must own that. This is the price you pay when you sign a deal with Sony as your partner. I've said it before and I'll say it again - signing a deal with Sony is like signing a deal with the devil. I'm sure the funding and exposure is excellent, but it's the contractual stuff that creates strife for the devs. Just look at From - Sony has effectively screwed over the Bloodborne fans by completely ignoring calls for an HD remaster or PC port or sequel. Same situation concerning a Days Gone sequel... they screwed Bend Studio over and the fact that we likely will never see a sequel is a complete travesty. This situation and the other aforementioned are all prime reasons for why devs should never enter into a contract with Sony as publishing partner. They've proven many times to be a horrible business partner and gamers and fans continue to pay the price. They just can't help themselves by ruining good things.
Love these “internal discussions,” why not just say they’re talking to Sony about not doing what fans are telling them they don’t want? Same with Shift Up, let’s be real these are Sony decisions at the end of the day.
I hope Sony doesn't give in to the phony rage mob, especially the cheating game stealing community of pc gamers. Most of these rageaholics don't even know what exactly they're angry about. Arrowhead needs to be upfront with this frustrated mob and tell them that's the policy going forward and not to expect a change to it. It was stellar blade just a few days ago now it's latched onto hd2 let the toxic mob move on to the next game to rage on about.
