About 1-2 hours boosting for each platform, and about 2-6 hours legit for each platform just because of how hard it is to find games, specifically ranked and FFA games. You have to find at least 1 partner regardless for "Friendly Competition", which itself only takes about 3 minutes or so.

As Sony is a mess, we can't infer which date to trust. Let's account for the worst Great, I'll have to focus on Warhawk if this is true. I wish I didn't have to sleep or go to work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REM12 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 So Warhawk is closing 15th or 25th, or was someone able to reach Sony to confirm? Its like they intentionally trying to toy with people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I'll have to get the game and jump on it ASAP; only going for the Vita version so hopefully will be able to tackle it in a few days. Thanks for the answer!

I had ample time to obtain the online trophies in Crysis 2 but I never did and I've accepted that, I had the game for years and simply just didn't get around to it and I didn't get upset when I saw the notification. I also never brought up finances, I simply brought the issue of time. I work as well and I play only when I can but I don't use that as an excuse for not getting the online trophies in a game that's several years old.

goodSuM Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 I'm on the same side with Trope, except for me, I live for these notices since I'm always fighting for them. I have no time to play games right now as it is, so I'm always playing what's shutting down (right now, it's leaving on the PS4 for Happy Dungeons). If I had Twisted Metal or Warhawk, I'd have to switch those to the front of my backlog. For another example - I love Uncharted, but I haven't started the second game yet, since the online for that is still working. I'm not going to get those trophies out of the way, since yet another free-to-play game will surely announce its closure before then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These notices are what got me to get the MP trophies on Arkham Origins out of the way. Though the servers are going strong over a year later, it was a good choice.

You can still do games such as FEAR 2, Ghostbusters, and Heroes over Europe on the xbox 360 (these shut 4yrs ago, 6yrs ago, and 5yrs ago respectively on the ps3) due to this. On the other hand, Sony cannot even maintain their own servers, let alone other peoples. Comparing Sony to Microsoft in this department is like comparing a pedalo to a Ferrari. Go look at the XBOX unobtainables list too: considerably shorter than Playstation's.

pinkrobot_pb Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 The shutdown notice for Hustle Kings was first set in August, but then it was backdated to some day in June even after that date had already passed. I hung on to the original date and that is indeed when it went down. I think it was the same for Motorstorm Apocalypse. So the few messages we do get are completely unreliable. I really wonder who is taking the time to put them up there and then getting it wrong more often than not. The gist of it is, as soon as anything appears on any of the official channels about a game shutting down try to get it done as fast as possible.

This right here should be pinned. I had no idea that this was the case with M$ and really irks me that P$ can't do the same with servers, ultimately killing online games. RIP Ghostbusters. I have grown up loving Sony for many reasons but it seems the cannot get this right. Who knows and maybe it will change in the future? What about titles on PS Now? I don't use it but are there games with online still there? If so, that's fucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You knew what you were getting into when you bought the game and now the time has come. Most of the shutting games I do, I haven't bought them prior. I buy them as they announce it, so your point is a bit, err... not on point. I would never leave a Warhawk in my backlog for 10 years, however, there are many interesting games in over 7000 games synced to the psn servers. I'd like to play them as they come to be shutdown. Ok, is 3 months too much for your average multi-billionaire company? What about the 30 days notice that Sony has failed to give? Once again, i'll restate that: shutting down games is totally ok, everything has an end some day. However, give at LEAST 30 FUCKING DAYS, it won't hurt anybody. It won't hurt publisher, it won't hurt die hard fans of the MP, it won't hurt trophy hunters. Don't defend a flawed Sony's model. Giving around 15 days for three of their games when others got more than 6 months. It's totally disorganized and flawed, consistency is the key here. I hope they treat us better, but I know we're such a minority that nobody cares. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately all discord links seem to be expired/invalid. Is your primary language French? The term "cross play" means to play with people that are on a different device from you, i.e. you on a Vita can play the same game with someone on say a PS3. It doesn't matter which version they're playing, you'll only get the list for the version you're playing. Cross play allows you access to a larger player pool as opposed to just playing with people on the same device as you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
