Another insane thing to me was the amount of PlayStation corpo lover plebs telling us "jUst bEnD aNd coMpLy" just because they are used to getting milked by Sony, heck no, we marked a precedent!
Apparently Japan has access to two versions of the game. The 'global' version where it has every other language other than Japanese. Then there's the 'Japanese' only version. It was the 'global' version that got de-listed from them. They can still buy the 'Japanese' only version. Has something to do about licensing rights for Japanese voice acting.
When you see the CEO playing with some content creators, you know they love the game. I don't think they ever desired this .. but with Sony paying the bills, they had to do it. The only power availabe was the community.
The devs were vocal that they didnt want this to happen and were actively encouraging the community to voice their concerns. I havent checked, but I hope this goes down in Helldivers wiki history just like Malevelon Creek
I had taken a break from the game for a bit because of all the balancing but i came on for a mission due to how we succeeded on the major order to get Sony to overturn PSN requirement. I had my refund rejected 5 times and my refund was getting reviewed on my 6th one when the announcement hit so I cancelled the refund request and reinstalled it when i got home
I'm finding I love the Orbital strike for groups, chargers and biles. It one shots biles and tanks,hulks. You stun the chargers, and if you hit the bile right on, they drop in one. 60 sec cool down and its effective. More than the rail strike in my option.
@@tauri7273 Let me edit and say unless you run into a PC host with the immortal bile issue, yeah it works lol. Otherwise it's an orbital, two rail strikes then finally lured into a hellbomb.
Glad to see The Pressure from players paid off and Sony backed down with it's mandatory PSN requirements. Game is having issues right now, crashing way too many times.
I have a hard time thinking of analogy to describe those people who were outraged, getting a refund, without seeming extremely derogatory towards those people
I finally played for the first time - on PS5 no less - and all I can say is... I get it. My family gets it. My Uber driver gets it. I'm ready to do my part.
suggestion, how about we get to customize the pelican. like really customize it. maybe even change the model completely with another vessel. like collabs with other IPs? i think that would be cool
@@Largentina. What do you mean specifically? I don't remember hearing or seeing an official statement of Sony resigning as the publisher or by contract giving away their power solely to the devs, did you?
@@gurkengerd9981 No but I do remember them no longer requiring the PSN link on Steam and if they ever try something like this again I can easily refund the game again. But sure, you do you.
Helldivers, in the face of adversity, remember this: no matter how fiercely they try to bring us down, our spirit remains unyielding. We will rise from every fall, stronger, united, and unwavering in our mission.
I was flabbergasted at the reading comprehension of everyone as well after this happened. Never underestimate the power of stupidity in groups. Don't @ me. I'm not siding with Sony about the requirement. I'm just going to say that the requirement to link a PSN account with Steam was ALWAYS THERE on the store page. Before release and after. I bought the game a week and a half after release and remember seeing a prompt in-game to link PSN to access online play. Did everyone experience this differently? Because I clearly needed to link or it didn't let me play online. Now I have my Steam account needlessly linked to my PSN since it's not needed anymore. The backlash was outrageous. It was both needed, and not needed. It's sad to see everyone say they "just did it out of nowhere" when that's not how it was going to work. Now, what did occur was poor communication on Sony's part as to how it was going to work because I can see someone overlooking that small tag on the store page about 3rd party accounts or DRM. Such an unfortunate situation. In many ways, the fact that PSN has limited access globally probably wasn't the best idea to require it in the first place since Steam is not limited to which parts of the world it can be accessed. So if anything, the way this all happened was probably better because Sony would rather not see Helldivers take a massive dump and lose money. I don't. The game is too good to see it go to waste.
@@P.W.R. I’m supersized that Sony backed down with there decision and maked the PSN requirement optional. That is truly democratic moment in gaming history.
How is it greed for a publisher to want you to sign in into their services?... Is that not what you need to do to play, oh I don't know, COD, HALO, RDR and GTA online, or any game by say UBISOFT, EA or Microsoft?.... Why is it not greed for them to do this, but for Sony it is? Only problem was, that PSN is not available in this many countries. Which when they saw, they were straight away in talk about what to do there... 😊
word on the streets; next patch is actually gonna be good. also, CEO stepping down to become one of us again. and enforcing xx amount of time played per week for game developers. like, yeah, they got themselves into a shitty position. then, 4 days laters, they're like oi nah fuck this shit - i give up my position as CEO to go back to lead direction. as a 10-star general with over 500hrs in-mission time - i feel heard. i do not feel the need to abandon this game as though it's bf2042. also. 500 hrs and only 500 team kills? come on arrow head, gimme a prize.
bro i see Japan in the list of countries that cannot link with the psn . Isn't sony a Japanese company ? Honestly i dont know much about it but im curious. It seems a little strange for Japan not to have access to the psn.?
I'm from the U.S. and seeing democracy defeat capitalism/corporatism is awesome as well as super hilarious and ironic considering Super Earth is basically an allegory for the U.S.
MAJOR ORDER COMPLETE 🫡
50 Medals for everyone! We earned it boys!
for now.... the battle against commies isn't over.
Nice to hear that. Does that mean we will see more Helldivers content from you?
Minor Order Complete.
FBI open up................................ boooom
Outstanding patriotism
"For democracy! But not for sony." That made me blow air loudly out of my nose
"How did we build a bat phone? Well, the answer is nose." -SungSung
The fact that Japan (Sony HQ) and Puerto Rico (US Territory) were included as unsupported is insane

Oh...good one!
Facts!
That opening song was brilliantly made. I found the lyrics hilarious so hats off to who made it!
sounds like ai sang the song did tbh
@@yungbreez259 yeah its an ai song lol
Never played a game so immersive that we actually have a REAL LIFE MISSION of the game! LOL
Jokes aside, I am so happy Tomo made a video for HD2
😇
All Helldivers dropping that review bomb stratagem.
Man, that intro went hard. Good job Tomo, and good job everyone for the win against the megacorp.
Sony is actually the third enemy faction of the game
I hope Joel doesn't have any more plans with her for now...
When you see the CEO playing with some content creators, you know they love the game. I don't think they ever desired this .. but with Sony paying the bills, they had to do it. The only power availabe was the community.
The best part the devs are making a free cape that shows the negative steam review graph. It's a pretty banger cape too
The devs were vocal that they didnt want this to happen and were actively encouraging the community to voice their concerns. I havent checked, but I hope this goes down in Helldivers wiki history just like Malevelon Creek
The devs actually care about the players, opinion haven't seen that in a long time.
Was never the devs fault don't get it twisted all Sonys greed.
@@Stern4EVERxPretty sure the CEO admitted on twitter that he knew it was coming but didn't mind that much
@@Stern4EVERx CEO admitted it was their decision to not implement at launch
OMG that intro was amazing!!! This should be your intro for all HD2 videos for at least a month.
Another victory for the right side of history!
Major order: fix the votes and comments to positive
@user-si7fj5rh5u
It’s already made to history book,now we need to recover it so steam put it in tops
we're at 68% completion with that its at Mixed now
@user-si7fj5rh5u this man understands the nuance of the corpo rat mind

lol that song. im surprised they gave in so fast.
also, saw jacks the finals video. now awaiting urs :)
lmao that cinematic intro is 🔥
Funny how the package is not available in Japan where Sony comes from! lol
Does Japan not have psn? When I saw that on the list I was surprised.
they have two versions of the game, global and japanese. Global was delisted.
I'm finding I love the Orbital strike for groups, chargers and biles. It one shots biles and tanks,hulks. You stun the chargers, and if you hit the bile right on, they drop in one. 60 sec cool down and its effective. More than the rail strike in my option.
I'm gonna have to give that a try!

Landing in the middle of a swarm of shriekers was super cinematic.
Love the intro dude!
Especially the RKO. Hilarious.
This was a really great video! Loved the music
That soundtrack at 7:39 kinda sounded like it was from the movie Fountain(2006). underrated movie
i didn't know about the bile titan's stomach, thanks for the tip lol
Be on alert though, I'm sure Sony/PlayStation will try some shenanigans later on and sneakier.
That intro was sick (and so was the rest of the video 😁)!
Glad you enjoyed it 🥰
That intro is Helldivers personified. That shit hit hard. Awesome job.
That's insane! I have a PSN and I still think that's ridiculous. Thankfully it's not moving forward.
Best intro , just beyond perfect ❤
Glad you enjoyed it 🥰
That intro was amazeballs!!
7:50 what music is that in the bg? is it in the game? sounds absolutely amazing
This is the hardest fucking intro I've ever seen, Tomo
tom. you better off throwing the supply call in on its back or legs. its typically (not always) kills it, and will follow it as it walks.
we miss the tomo helldiver, hope you can stream this game often again.
we won \o/ also , thank you tomo for letting me know about endless and his awesome music, funny but awesome. Welcome back gents
THAT.... Hands down HAS to be the BEST effin intro I've seen in a looooong time!
Top notch Tomo..!!
Appreciate that 🥰
@@Tomographic
Democracy done right! ✊🏻
Democracy delivered! ✊🏻
🤜🏻💥🤛🏻
The start was unreal haha keep the helldivers content coming
And to think we have another Warbond coming in only a few more days!
Super excited for the new sidearm.
Never bow down to corporate greed
New mission directive. Go change your review back to positive!
Glad to see The Pressure from players paid off and Sony backed down with it's mandatory PSN requirements. Game is having issues right now, crashing way too many times.
love those useful tips you shared throughout the video!
You're slick! i envy you tom - hope i can play like you someday. Cheers
A Helldivers video? Dont mind if I do! Love the streams too :)
🔥🔥best freaking intro ever 🔥🔥
Great to see so many countries fighting for Libertea and Democracy, Gamers and Gaming are alive and well. " It's the people that count ".
This was for our boys in Antarctica ✊🔥a
lol and the penguins celebrate

You can extinguish the fire by diving. It does it immediately.
I finally played for the first time - on PS5 no less - and all I can say is... I get it. My family gets it. My Uber driver gets it. I'm ready to do my part.
The intro song on 1.25 speed is a banger.
suggestion, how about we get to customize the pelican. like really customize it. maybe even change the model completely with another vessel. like collabs with other IPs? i think that would be cool
How would that work with 3 teammates that also customize the pelican completely different?
@@Subsistence69ideally it would depend on who calls it in, but in reality I think it would be decided by the host
Thank you for showing how to kill the chargers with an autocannon! And how to melee kill them as well!
13:05 THE SHIPS HAVE EYES
I wish all devs would listen like these.I think nost other compabies would have just done no matter what the communityplayer base have to say
I was thinking about buying this game, but seeing the power and the greed of Sony, let me make an easy decision. Glad I saved 40$ because of this!
But did you listen to what was said at all though?
@@Largentina. What do you mean specifically? I don't remember hearing or seeing an official statement of Sony resigning as the publisher or by contract giving away their power solely to the devs, did you?

How can u play it without a psn on Playstation?
I live in iraq and we have psn
How come there is no PSN in Japan? 4:07
I'm so proud of this community.
Amazing work as always Tom!!
I know the lighting is pretty blinding but goddamn how does this game look so good
The power of community!!!
dude literally is a man on fire entering the shuttle lol
Hope sony come to the great realisation that they need to up on that region allocation and accessibility, come man.
Yippee, back to spreading democracy
This video is restoring my sense of fun with this game
Helldivers, in the face of adversity, remember this: no matter how fiercely they try to bring us down, our spirit remains unyielding. We will rise from every fall, stronger, united, and unwavering in our mission.
Who made that song?
AI
Tomo has become extremely good at this game, just saw him down a charger with a melee and pretty much call his shot on how to kill a BT.
I have noticed that since they have added the speed loader i have been wasting a lot more ammo with the senator
Those clankers think they could out smart us as Helldivers who anhillated them once
Considering the PSN Requirement was clearly visible on launch day on the Steam page, I'm surprised how many people cannot read
I was flabbergasted at the reading comprehension of everyone as well after this happened. Never underestimate the power of stupidity in groups.
Don't @ me. I'm not siding with Sony about the requirement. I'm just going to say that the requirement to link a PSN account with Steam was ALWAYS THERE on the store page. Before release and after.

VICTORY WAS NEVER IN DOUBT
4:06 this is so bizarre. Steam and Sony need to work their 💩out forreal. Like Japan and Puerto Rico are listed. Huh?🤔
Really hope they bring it to xbox soon. I don’t wanna buy a pc or ps5 just to play one game
Yo! What is this song? It’s awesome.
Can we get a SONY veteran cape now?
6:28 was that just me
This music is insane!
word on the streets; next patch is actually gonna be good.

Awesome song 🎶
220 hours. Those are rookie numbers! :P
the devs may have been supporting the player base action, but those certain community managers ..... well..... they cant be trusted ever again
That intro was badass🤣
This community is incredible.
