Well, they said they would ‘discuss’ the crappy anticheat too, but so far nothing has been done about that either. I won’t hold my breath.
I know little about it. What makes this stand out? I am guessing kernal level, but is there anything else to it?
Helldivers 2 uses nProtect GameGuard, which is a notorious kernel level anticheat. It is notorious for being problematic to uninstall and causing issues on systems it is installed in (such as straight up preventing some programs from running or causing them to crash and other terrible nonsense that should never happen). Combine that with the fact it’s ineffective and the game is PvE, and it’s nonsensical why it’s around.
Kernel Level Sony Data Breach in 3,2,1…
Well they reversed the account linking. I don’t think the anti-cheat had the same backlash though.
The last screenshot is the most important one to pay attention to.
(Apologizing in advance, a bit of a rant incoming…)
People can’t just bitch about it on an online forum and then do nothing after that, that doesn’t solve anything. You have to be proactive, you have to get off your ass, if you truly want change and to be treated respectfully as a customer. Otherwise, you get what you deserve.
They know the standard M.O. of a gamer, its to complain but then do nothing, and they take advantage of that.
Edit: And I’m talking especially to those who are downvoting my comment. Just bitching and downvoting does’t change/fix anything.
Seriously, you’re still on that hill?
They hurt no one with their comment licensing, why do you feel the need to bother them and add to the harassment while adding nothing to the original discussion ?Still on what hill? I just got here.
And how many people on this site add nothing to an original discussion (I’d say at least half).
Thanks though!
What is the Anti Commercial-Al license and why do people keep adding it to their comments?
You’re a little late to the party. Also, better to read it from here: What is the Anti Commercial-Al license and why do people keep adding it to their comments?
Thanks.

You’re welcome.
He’s right guys. Get off your *sses and pitch a tent in the grassy area of your local US university. Show Sony you’re not going to put up with this!

Here’s the thing: doing something does not always work, but doing nothing never does.
In the provided screenshot, the devs themselves explain that asking for refunds and leaving bad reviews is what gives them enough pull to even have the discussion with sony.Of course you don’t have to do anything, but you really don’t accomplish anything by bothering the people who actually try to find ways to make the situation better.

That sarcasm doesn’t help solve anything.
Edit: Neither does downvoting.
I saw this coming a mile away when I first learned it was a GAAS.
