Helldivers 2 CEO Responds After CATASTROPHIC Review Bombing

Helldivers 2 CEO Responds After CATASTROPHIC Review Bombing

We're back with more news, the CEO of Arrowhead has started talking in the community about what's going on with Helldivers 2. Nobody has any idea how to resolve the issue and Sony are having discussions with Arrowhead but there hasn't been an update yet and with Helldivers 2 being taken off the Steam store in over 150 countries, people are getting even more annoyed with the situation.

The game now has over 250,000 recent reviews with a 13% positive rating which is overwhelmingly negative and leaves the game at a 44% overall from over half a million reviews but Helldivers 1 has latched on to some of the backlash and has also started seeing negative reviews. Let me know your thoughts about this situation in the comments :D

WE DID IT
SONY NO LONGING REQUIRING PSN LINKING

[WiessWinters]

WE DID IT DIVERS THEY FELT TRUE DEMOCRACY AND REMOVED THE REQUIREMENTS!!

[Cancer-sypx]

Playstation just tweeted they're not moving forward with the linking PSN account thing.

[abdisaputra]

Well, goodbye fellow divers. I own a game that I cannot play anymore since I don't have PSN account or playstation and now I can't refund the game. It was amazing experience. Adiós. "Returning to civilian life"

[ChannelFredo]

when gamers realize they are more than fans, but also consumers with consumer rights.

[Cybertech]

Remember kids: bulling actually does work and should be employed regularly to prevent others from destroying what you love.

[asoibal]

I'm fine with boycotting everything Sony and Arrowhead. Fuck around and find out. We are tired of the gaming industry's bullshit. Go ahead and add Ubisoft in while we're at it.

[budennz]

Looking at the Helldivers discord, they've just linked a Twitter post by Sony saying the account linking is not moving forward. Big W

[Priest-K]

What upset me the most is the CEO came out with a fake apology but lets his community managers run rampant and tell us gamers to go F ourselves…WTH???

[slipsilversliver]

Appears Sony is officially standing down on the account linking requirement.

edit: PlayStation account announced on twitter/X about 30 minutes ago

[realitylime]

This is indeed catastrophic. I’m glad to see a community take a stand against the corporate BS that drives gaming; however, it’s not gonna make a bit of difference to Sony, a multi billion dollar conglomerate. Glad you’re covering this Bill, keep the info coming.

[TheKurgain]

Sony just backed down on X posting they are not going forward with account linking.

[J.B..]

We won the most important major order yet

[trevorstockwell]

Yes the CEO of arrowhead is partially responsible because he at one point knew that six months before launch that sony might do this but not for the entire situation. Sony isnt the only company that does this account bs but sony has had multiple security breaches so please explain to me how this is ok...make the link thing optional if you going to have it at all

[JHeckGaming]

Shitbox does the same thing when I bought State Of Decay 2 on steam!!

[gregh]

sony statement 

“Helldivers fans — we’ve heard your feedback on the Helldivers 2 account linking update. The May 6 update, which would have required Steam and PlayStation Network account linking for new players and for current players beginning May 30, will not be moving forward. We’re still learning what is best for PC players and your feedback has been invaluable. Thanks again for your continued support of Helldivers 2 and we’ll keep you updated on future plans.”

[warpmonkey]

There IS something that can be done.. what is happening in the community now is EXACTLY what can be done

[pheargoth]

Sony went back on the proposed changes.
Well done Helldivers.

[zeid]

I still feel uneasy until they make it a permanent thing.

[ardbug]

SONY does not care, no, but Steam do, they had to take a financial hit by refunding beyond the normal refunding rules, they probably wont be so lax next time SONY want to release a game on Steam, and PC gamers definitely care, for many years to come they will see the SONY name on the tin and skip it.
