So much for "free-to-play" on the PS4, no?
Oddly, enough, I came to the forum expecting to see an uproar about this new revelation only to find out that it seems the playerbase is as of yet still unaware of the situation.
Pause the following video at 12 seconds and read the bottom line of the fine print disclaimer on the screen. Read it very carefully. Then read it again..... very carefully.

Mebbe lack of uproar is because nobody is convinced that DUST is going to PS4. Having to pay for the network does suck though. A bit of a sneaky move there, though SONY hasn't been doing too well lately, so its not really a big surprise. |

Massive reduction in revenue, even though still cash positive, is considered 'not doing well' in the business world, and leads to desperate decisions.

This is really a Sony/PSN issue. It is going to apply to all online gaming, right? So, if you are paying so you can play CoD then Dust can follow along for the ride.
It's not the same as the sharing issue -- but I can see why they would like to get a financial stake in the online game because that is the way everything is eventually going to go. I guess they have to earn something beyond the hardware sales. |

Yeah, just take a look at Apple. Stock prices have dropped by massive amounts, just because they can't manage to dominate the cell industry as much as they used to. They are still king of kings, but they're stocks have taken a more massive hit than any other international cell manufacturer..... go figure. |

Meh, none of that is of any concern to me, really.
Just stoked to see Sony convince all of it's fanbros to PRAISE the very video where Sony announces to them that they will be required to pay for online gaming on the PS4.
Pimp move, Sony. |

Says you need ps plus subscription for multi play. Not online play.
Ie. hand your buddy your game. If you both have ps+ you can both play the same game simultaneously online. You will have installed it - he will play from the disc.
That's what I've gathered from everything anyway. Being able to lend your game without losin the ability to play it. Seems cool.
I have yet to see anything that says ps+ is required for online play.
Also this doesn't apply to dust. Physical disc copies only. |

$50/year + discounts for purchases, free games, online storage and early access to betas doesn't seem like that big of a deal. Not like I'm planning on paying anything for Dust 514 anytime soon... |

and your point would be? ps+ is not that hard to get..its not expensive and has more benefits than xbox live does, and xbox live is mandatory for all internets xD..so what exactly is your point ..most console gamers who prefer Sony over Microsoft (anyone who does not prefer Sony over Microsoft is insane. at its base Sony is just a better company with better products) already has PlayStation+ if the game dies it wont be because of this. it will be because of ccp's business management and communication. and even if it is ported to ps4 it will most likely remain on ps3 for a time as well as not everyone can afford to nab the ps4 as soon as it comes out and it would harm dust 514 customer base massively. ...this may effect the younger gamers i suppose...save up every year geta ps+ account they are worth it. |

I already pay for a PS+ membership. Mostly because I couldn't give 2shiznits about bragging about console superiority. I'm a gamer, I spend money on good gaming regardless of platform, end of story.
What matters here is the biggest fanbro taunt in the fanfail console war between Sony/Micro kiddies just got thrown off the battlefield. Kind of hilarious that Sony's tricked all of it's faithful into CHEERING the initial revealing of that info.
If I was a rabid fanboy, I'd feel like an idiot right now. Just sayin.... |

I don't believe it says anywhere that all multiplayer games require the plus membership. |

Then you don't believe your eyes? Cause that's exactly what the disclaimer in that video is saying.

Pretty much.
No uproar because most people over the age of 12 realise its a non-issue. I pay for XBox Live membership and I'll have no qualms about paying for PS+ membership on the PS4. 75% of my entertainment time consists of multiple online games, cheaper than a night out at the movies + dinner.
