Console Players And Self-Entitlement.

I begin this thread because it has been drawn to my attention that DE has recently gotten a LOT of flak from the PS4 players on their recent update to the PS4 version of WF.
 

 

 

Holy mother of god, DE get working on this STAT. This is NOT acceptable!
 
 
To me, the only thing that's unacceptable here is this behaviour.
I'd like to state here that PC to Console ports are incredibly difficult and require a lot of code to be re-written, and not only this, but the architecture of the PS4 is vastly different to the modular PC, and thus it is riddled with problems that PCs simply don't have.
 
The onus is on Sony, who had the update waiting for Certification that it WOULD NOT CRASH/BREAK/CORRUPT your consoles. Did they do it right?

Image says it all.
 
My point is, yes, the game is broken, but it's not been on the PS4 for long, and PC users had to deal with FAR worse than you guys, so give over and shut up while DE do their jobs dammit.
 
Rant over.

Yeah I'm annoyed at how PS4 players always rage at DE over something they have no control over. The very fact that this game is on PS4 shws that DE wants to make it work. 

 

Half or more the issues are due to the fact that PSN is vastly different. While PC players only have to deal with DE directly, PS4 players need to wait for DE to jump through the billions of hoops and cross through a ton of red tape in order to get their release.

Remember, people are not used to seeing a game like this on console - what I mean by that, is traditionally when a game is released on a console it's already done. It may be glitchy as all heck like GTA5, but it's still done. PS4 gamers expecting a finished game are playing a beta that is still being developed, and aren't used to seeing that on a console. For PC, we expect it to some extent, because we play tons of games that are in alpha/beta stages. This is pretty new territory to throw a game still in beta like this on a console.

 

For anyone saying WF being a beta at this point is a technicality, that's not true - they are still doing major overhauls, coding, updates that you simply don't do in a game after the beta stage. This game is still being built - we still get issues on PC updates, it's going to be worse for the console side, as it's a port. So I don't really begrudge the PS4 gamers being a bit upset. Yes, it will be fixed quickly as DE sees it break and rush to patch it, but it's still pretty shocking if you are used to console games.

This is what I'm trying to get at, the console gamers are yelling that they want it fixed NOW.

 

Yes, that's more or less possible on PC, but it'll take weeks for it to pass Certification because PSN.

It's that simple.

 

 

Self-Entitlement isn't strictly tied to consoles players, yo. Both sides have their fair share of people on high horses.

Fair point.
