Previously, more than 100+ countries were banned from purchasing Helldivers 2

Now only 7 countries are banned.

fuck did charlie do?

Super Earth finds new ways to lower their recruitment standards.

But Iran is based as fuck.

worst shitholes on the planet + vietnam

>>712604572
the viet government is just openly corrupt and demands a piece of everything sold there, plus you have to open up some location there as well to give the locals jobs lol.

Probably a mistake by Sony.

>some third world shitholes where you need to work for 6 months to buy one game can now buy it officially on steam

slow news day?

So only the subhuman countries remaining, good

inb4 angry pycc ))))

>>712604572
they defeated democracy and freedom

>>712604670
Actually they could buy it at release but then they went and banned all countries that don't have PSN (most of the world+ some EU countries)
Customer service told them to lie and use a VPN to make a PSN account to continue playing.

>>712604572

nope. pass.

do you think the US gov will ever stop seething about Cuba? it's been 60 years

>>712604651
Iran isn't going to exist by the end of the year.

>>712604742
Banned because they kept whining about having to make an account, saying it's anti consumer to sell a game that requires PSN on a country that doesn't even have PSN, so they listened and removed it from sale, they deserved it

>>712604971
Considering they just now removed it from everywhere except a few shitholes it looks like they changed their minds.

>>712604653
i still see ruskies in the game
and i kill them on sight and waste their reinforcements as much as i can before i leave

>>712604795
the funny thing is it does absolutely fuck all to stop cheating. thankfully the only cheats i've ever seen are resource ones. they skipped a hundred hours of grind for me.

>>712605080
>Day0 of helldivers 2 releasing in china

>>712605053
thats awesome, yet another win for us empathetic good guys on the left.

>>712605045
Probably because the same people started whining about not being able to buy it

Isn’t Syria a democracy and US friend now?

>>712605149

fuck sony

Welp guess i wont be going back to hd2

>>712605080
its marketed as "for your safety" against "cheaters" but really gives it complete system wide access just like vanguard in Riot games. I'd be excited for both Helldivers 2 and 2XKO if either of them didnt have this spyware required to play it.

>>712604671
>))))

Russia being banned is cool, but can we do China too?

That's it for the thread, vatniks have arrived

FUCKING FINALLY

BATTLE BROTHERS
HELLDIVERS, TODAY THE ENEMY IS AT OUR DOOR, WE KNOW OUR DUTY AND WE WILL DO IT
WE FIGHT FOR OUR HONOR AS HELLDIVERS, AND WE FIGHT IN THE NAME OF DEMOCRACY

Based

What took them so long?

>region locked their games because they wanted people to sign up onto PSN
>remove region lock for stellar blade
>best performing Playstation published PC game yet
>suddenly remove it for all their previous games

In the end money is more important than people signing up to PSN to boost numbers.

>>712604795
This. Never buying it.

cubabros...
it's over...

>>712604503 (OP)
Russians are just buying global keys and playing the game, why even bother?

>>712604503 (OP)
what a zogged pos. back to edf.

>>712607492
I find this kind of larp very endearing because Super Earth is a shithole and memedivers disposable mooks. But I suppose not as outright evil as in HD1

>>712609128
Stellar Blade was also the first Sony game with Denuvo on it, so expect that on all upcoming PlayStation PC games as well

>>712609514
At this rate the "PlayStation PC" label is gonna be the new curse mark. Region locks, PSN/Login BS, and now Denuvo slapped on everything. Sony saw Capcom's homework and copied it without even changing the name. Just give it a year and their entire PC push will be DRM-riddled shovelware ports running worse than the PS5 versions.

>>712610098
Chinks will keep buying coomershit and the world will keep turning, wcyd

>>712604917
Give it about another 10 to 20 years until all the boomers are finally dead. And thank fuck when that day comes.

>>712609417
On one hand, HD2 Helldivers are more likely to be decent people who will make the humane choice when prompted, and practice in real, localized democracy to make their big decisions over HD1 vets who are probably more likely to be in on the LARP.
On the other, that makes the fact Super Earth still treats them like disposable munitions even more heinous.

>>712609417
Nothing unites humanity more than a common enemy. If some xeno niggers showed up tomorrow and didn't immediately nuke Earth out of existence, you can bet even the most racist anons living under absolute shitholes would kill xenos alongside whoever chooses to do the same.

did this have any impact in the player count tho?

Didnt this happen like 2 weeks before Stellar Blade came out on pc? I remember talking to a friend in Mongolia that wanted to preorder the pc port of Stellar blade but he couldn't but then the next day it was lifted for some reason.

>>712605080
all anticheat is like this

>>712608956
Sony

>>712604503 (OP)
People who wanted to buy the game, already found a way to do so
And those who got turned away by the restrictions will probably never come back anyway

>>712605053
Umm, are you sure they are not slava ukraini?

Bros, what premium warbond do I get as my first?
I'm thinking the not Catachans because their armor looks cool as fug

>>712604503 (OP)
time to turn off crossplay on my ps5.
Good luck to the rest.

>viet bros banned
>india not banned
what?

>>712616051
don't worry we already have all consoletards turned off, its one of the first things you do when you install a new multiplayer game.

>>712616252
Vietnam is a commie country
India is a democracy

>>712611971
Well, not everyone fell for Space America's Galactic War on Terror narrative in Helldivers 1, a lot of dissenters got blackbagged. But by the time HL2 rolls around, Super Earth has bred the very adversaries they had propagandized about before.

>>712616290
Yeah, turned it on in spacemarine 2 for a day and holy shit.
Unmuted mics with a niglet child propably not even theirs screaming in the background +fan blowing coupled with absolute shit skill.

>>712605294
Glowie sucking that zog dick isntrael will not exist by the end of the decade
>>712604503 (OP)
They should ban India poos should get off my game and fix up their shit hole country

>>712616623
every ps player i've seen in helldivers has teamkilled with orbitals multiple times, soaked up most of the reinforcement budget, and they've not done objectives, but instead just fight trash mobs for the entire match.

>>712616396
the vietnamese are better than indians in literally every single way imaginable

>>712616252
Just to remind you playstation has an indian branch. Xbox doesn't.

>>712616938
>Today, Microsoft entities in India have over 20,000 employees, engaged in sales and marketing, research and development and customer services and support, across 10 Indian cities – Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Gurugram, New Delhi, Noida, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Mumbai and Pune.
i see

>>712617013
Microsoft and Xbox, Sony and Playstation are separate things.

>>712616938
microsoft is literally ran by an indian ceo

>>712616760
>not done objectives, but instead just fight trash mobs for the entire match.
Facts.
I wouldn't mind if they just sucked at general gameplay skills but being retarded dead weight is too much.

>>712604503 (OP)
>Finally, I can buy the game
>$35
I'll never financially recover from this.

>>712604503 (OP)
This is was cause stellar blade did well. They didn't want their first party games to look bad so they released the region lock to boost their numbers.

>>712604795
speaking of anyone know the fastest way to find cheaters to give me free SC? So far its always been by chance on either difficuilty 1 or 5 but these dudes often stop playing or just dont accept my friend request so I cant rejoin them

>>712618165
you can all the dlc except supercitizen p90 can be aquired FREE also killzone was fomo until arrowhead is presured to drop it again cause no crossover

>>712618352
then they should remove denuvo

>>712604503 (OP)
>be Arrowhead CEO
>be forced to implement Sony's psn absolute dogshit in your game
>know that your game is going to be blocked in 100+ countries after a while so try to swindle potential buyers by pretending it's not going to happen
>it happens, people mad
>refunds galore and reputation tanks
>Sony removes the blocks the next year anyways
He could've just not tricked people to begin with and the problem would've solved itself anyways, so his greed fucked him over. But also imagine his reaction when realizing he went through all that trouble just for Sony to undo the blocks in the end. I don't know what's funnier.

>>712618401
just farm difficulty 1 when you re bored and video second screen also grab a friend tha want to farm and chat too

>>712611659
People volunteering to protect their cities from mutant murder bugs is honorable and moral. But doing it also props up the regime that created those bugs. It is what it is.

>>712619284
the guy and arrowhead devs are delussional in what helldivers game is ( a hardcore milsim, d10 its metal gear solid phantom pain hardcore mod) i dont think he is forced when they removed fast the ps account

>>712604503 (OP)
I can get along with all these flags, just filter india and we are good.

>>712604503 (OP)
Yeah, I'm not falling for that again.

>>712619297
Nah I would prefer a cute chink hand it to me so I dont have to waste literal hours on that shit.

>>712604774
>Wagner intensify

>>712619284
The CEO knew that would happen, he just wanted to milk an additional 100+ countries before the PSN bullshit, and he expected Steam not to allow refunds since it's in their policy.
What he miscalculated is that Gabe doesn't fuck around with his customers.

because one lords over you, and the other doesn't.

uhhh please stop nooticing...

>>712604971
Fuck Sony, fuck Sonyiggers, and fuck PSN.

>>712616760
Constantly fighting drops/breaches can be a good thing by distracting the enemy forces. Like when the evacuation missions first came out and basically the only real way to do them was to split the team and have one pair divert the entirety of the enemy reinforcements on their position by triggering drops over and over.
It just so happens that console cattle are retarded subhumans, so they're not actually thinking about that and will just die over and over instead of holding the line against the enemy.

>>712616252
If I remember correctly, it's Steam-wide. Vietnam has this weird requirement that Steam doesn't want to bother doing because they aren't big like China.

>>712621365
