:ps4: Foul Play - $2.00 to $100.00 [customspoiler='Fine Print'] :ps4: Foul Play is a part of the PlayStation Heroes program, which means that you can pay your choice among a variety of price points for an item that is usually a theme for entries into a contest to win some prize with most of the money going to a charity. There are no details at the moment for what the prize for buying Foul Play offers, so I'll post that whenever it's announced.

Edit: From the PlayStation Heroes app on PS4, the Foul Play promotion is for a trip to PlayStation Experience in December. Once you purchase the game, you're supposed to go here to register for the actual contest, though you should wait until the page is updated for the PlayStation Experience promotion instead of whatever it's on at the moment.[/customspoiler]

I wasn't raging in the least. Might want to re-read my question. I was simply inquiring as I recently re-joined PS+ for the first time in a few years. Calm thyself.

 
pretty sad to see some comments saying its nothing when a service goes down. these services are forced so you can use the rest of the games features, most people intend to use the full game they purchased.

when a company has a lose bc of weather/etc and decide they pass the cost onto you is this ok? it wasnt the consumers fault it happened, nor is it their fault that the company didn't have a backup to cover such an event.

Sony/MS had plenty of warning also. Did they happen to take any serious measures against this? doesnt look like it. DDoS are difficult to stop but not impossible, better to have some people get on, than no one at all.

all this goes far deeper then people want to believe and i could go and on on. but too many people think only in terms of "apples to apples" in comparisons.

there are always people that take things to hard and to lightly.

I guarantee they took measures against it. Unfortunately, the very nature of Xbox Live and PS+ makes them highly susceptible to these kinds of attacks and its VERY difficult for networks like these to defend against it. Anyone that truly thinks these companies just sat back and allowed these attacks happen, especially over the holidays, when it was in fact something very easily prevented.....well, those people are living in la la land. Its as simple as that. People making these kinds of comments clearly just have no understanding of the topic at hand.

And the fact that people are complaining about 27 cents is nothing short of mind blowing, regardless of wether they deserve the refund or not. Its 27 cents for gods sake, get a grip. I though Steam users were insanely cheap, but they have nothing on CAG, lol.

Exactly. But most people here will cry that anyone who makes such a claims has an "entitlement problem". What they fail to grasp is that this isn't the age of people who feel entitled, it's the age of people bending over and taking it up the ass because they feel this it's "no big deal" when a company gives you the shaft. Was this outage Sony's fault? Yes. How many times have they been hacked, how many times have their servers gone down? More than what should be allowed by any consumer with brains (of course, most don't -- evidenced by the many excuses I see here for Sony). This can be prevented, but Sony wants to maximize profits in every way, even if it means not paying for better security measures.

I love the "first world problems" statements too. Nice to see that some things never change, few are still unintelligent enough to do anything other than parrot a phrase that's been around for years.

both ends are based assumption. There is aresimple reasons why a company would not do a proper defense.

the other guy isnt doing so why are we? that is one. they also know that after all this people are still going to use their service.

someone who forgets those two very important things is himself in "la la land".

i agree with you that those going nuts should calm down, but i think thats as far as it would go.

It's not entirely accurate to divide the cost of PS+ by a year. The average person does not have the time for real dedicated gaming every day of the week with work and obligations. Really its more accurate to say 1-2 days a week during the year given jobs and other responsibilities. Christmas week is an exception for many though being it is the most popular week for vacation usage or paid time off. Because of that the value of lost gaming time this week is much worse than perhaps any week of the year.
Click to expand...
Yes it is entirely accurate. Cost isn't dictated by how much one can play, just as cable TV's cost isn't dictated by how many hours one can actually watch. Its a yearly service and it has a yearly price, hence it has a daily average cost. Its as simple as that. If this were to be taken into any court of law, this is exactly how they would award the damages. The fact that some people might not be able to play 7 days a week 52 weeks a year doesn't change that fact. It may make their play time more valuable, but it doesn't make the actual time spent on the network more valuable. Your taking 100% objective data and trying to put a totally subjective spin on it. Sorry, but thats just not how the real world works. At the end of the day, 2 days of PS+ service is equal to 27 cents. The fact that one of these days might have been the only day someone could play that week doesn't change that fact. Your paying 13.5 cents a day for the service, even on the days your not playing. Again, that may make your playtime more valuable, but not the time spent on the service as your still getting the service, even if your not using it.

What if you had signed up with a 3-month card instead? They sell those, too, you know. Then you'd be out a whole 12 cents more!

 
The online store is back up (for me anyway) so I can't rant about not being able to buy Peggle 2 now.

I'll still complain about not being able to play my new Destiny though.  

Sony can still give me a dollar credit if they want.

 
I wonder if the posters victim blaming Sony are the same people who wait until 2:00pm each Tuesday to purchase the previous week deals then blame Sony for not getting them.

Eh, it's up, but it's really sluggish and having some trouble with logins.

 
Look on the bright side: Sony still would have to keep it down for 22 more days to beat their previous record!

i think it's free next week

with the network outage i wonder if we'll get anything free like last time, i doubt it will be out as long but this is happening during christmas when many people are playing their playstation for the first time, not the best way to make a first impression

 
There is almost always network problems due to the influx of more owners due to Christmas. Add to the equation a DDoS attack...

It sucks, but lets not make it sound like this is the first and only time this has happened before.

Shit, the 360 had problems for almost two weeks in 2007 during Christmas, and I dont recall it being due to any attack. Thankfully they gave owners the beloved Undertow game in compensation.
 
Im just annoyed that i cant start dragon age because i cant import my gameworld because i cant connect to origin because the psn is down because of jerk children.

I spent 2 1/2 hours creating that darn game world.

One of the best puzzles games in recent memory. It's on par with Portal for that great feeling you get when you finally figure out the solution to a puzzle that you thought was impossible.

If you're a PS+ member, it's best to wait until 1/6 when it's free for all three systems.

Don't even give them the honor of calling them hackers. Setting up a ddos isn't hacking.

There should be. Not that I'm one to beg for free games, but when this thing has happened multiple times in the past month or two, ontop of the fact there seems to be a account/info breach again (Saw a huge textfile with tons of account info and credit card info to Sony and other sites), Sony really needs to step their shit up
Click to expand...
First, there was no recent breach.

Second, you can't 'stop' a DDOS attack, merely possibly mitigate it to some degree. It comes from outside, it's not someone getting inside their security.

To simplify, the way the internet works is this: you send a request to a [sony] server, and the sony server returns what you asked for. This works really well.

A DDOS is someone using a large number of malware'd computers (yours, your dads, your friends) called a botnet to send a bazillion requests all at the same time.

Here is the problem - the [Sony] server has absolutely NO way of knowing which are 'good' requests, and which are 'bad' requests. It has to look at each and every one, and figure it out. Just looking at them takes time, and so the server farm simply can't keep up with it.

There is no realistic way to stop this. It is not [sony/microsoft/whoevers] fault.

If you get 50 gifts for your wedding, it's customary to send 'thank you' notes in a reasonable amount of time. Now imagine if your wedding video went viral on the net and people sent you 100,000 presents but still expected their thank you note within a few weeks. You'd be overwhelmed. That is exactly what is happening to these servers.

Adding servers doesn't even fix it, because they'd simply scale up the DDOS attack with more botfarms.

Sony pays a shitton for protection from attacks, but there is only so much that can be done.

I never said it was a huge breach. But a breach is still a breach, especially when they had the same shit happen to them before.

There is no such thing as a 'proper defense' against a large scale DDOS. It's simply not feasible. That it only happens occasionally is evidence that they do, indeed, have defenses up against smaller attacks that certainly occur.

I was thinking all of this myself and getting irritated with the people talking out of their asses, but I felt like having to explain it to them would just be even more irritating. Glad you stepped up and set them straight.

 
PS3 is working with PSN, but PS4 isn't still.  Does anyone think they will bring back any of the Flash sales again? Playing Freedom Cry and liking it, wish now I would have bought AC Liberation HD.

Only flash sale recently is still going on for like another 34 hours so I wouldn't think so if stuff's starting to work again and it's all available on the website which has been working since yesterday.

true their is no fool proof defense. it occasionally happens only bc there arent people trying DDoS as much as they are trying to get info.

What i do not get why people allow it. I know for a fact if people allow evil stuff they do it more often in the future and other companies follow the trend. It is common sense but a lot of people just follow others that should not be followed. We the people allowed this to happen and the good few standing up for consumer rights get attacked for wanting a better future. I laugh now when networks are down most people deserve it for allowing it for so long. I do not blame sony they are there to make money not make friends. If they can make profits on crappy network why change it unless enough people leave. Enjoy the down times and enjoy future drm online games cause ubisoft says it is the future.

 
Is Metal Gear Rising worth it?  I remember I kept seeing the words "glorified demo" when it was going for full price, but I'm considering the PS3 version for $6 and some change since it's only a little over a gig in size.

What i do not get why people allow it. I know for a fact if people allow evil stuff they do it more often in the future and other companies follow the trend. It is common sense but a lot of people just follow others that should not be followed.
