I really want to know why it was delayed in the first place. I’ve heard some rumors. One being the devs knew 6 months ahead but just messed up the deadline. Others said the servers were overloaded on launch. Does anyone know the answer? Maybe some sources?
It wasn’t “delayed”, it was temporarily waived. The function was there on launch and had the game not blown up it would have remained, and anyone not in psn regions would have simply refunded the game enthusiasts they learned of the requirement. Instead, because it got so big, the PSN linking was a part of what caused the really terrible server issues early on and so it was disabled. I don’t have easy access to the messages but some of the CMs and the CEO both confirmed this - I think someone shared the messages a few days ago here on c/helldivers2.
Yeah i don’t know. But i highly assume that they had no idea how popular the game would be and didn’t care enough. Then they suddenly saw millions of potential psn users
