I installed the game 3 days before and played with my son. After two days I can open the game but it didn't let me to do anything, it just wanted me to join the PlayStation Plus. Although I had allready a 14 days trial pack.
When did the 14 day trial start? Could it have perhaps ended?

Hi EA, I've just registered and I want to make to (unofficial) complain about the way you guys or Sony's handle the "free Garden Warfare PSX promotion".
I am an owner of a PS4, I went and downloaded the game when I heard it was free because PSX and I thank you for the nice idea but in my opinion, you didn't go all the way with this promotion. What I mean is, in my personal opinion, you should have spoken with guys at Sony's to remove the mandatoy subscription to PS+ for us to fully enjoy your free product.
If it's free, then make it free all the way, instead of asking me and others like me to buy extra to enjoy this game.
So, shame on you, yes, shame on you , because first of all, you shouldn't have asked PS+ (I know Sony require Plus subscription for multiplayer on PS4 but some multiplayer games on PS4 don't have this requirement and I don't think Sony asks for this) in the first time, for a regular customer who buys the game on PS4. If you are indeed humans with soul, you should talk to sony to remove this obligation for your offline multiplayer game (multiplayer co-op split screen for ex).
This is really outrageous!
Thank you
Kat.
This is good feedback.
Hi Kat, I agree some of it was not made clear such as that one was PS4 only, one was for Vita only etc. However, Garden Warfare has always required PS+/Xbox Live and there is no way to make it not require this currently. I am sorry you havent been able to play it though. Hopefully if you ever get PS+ in the future you will give it a try
Hi Jenni!
I really enjoy your type of corporate attitude serving corporate answers to the kind consumers. This is one of the reasons that made me decide applying for the public sector. Back to the subject (sorry for the offtopic):
You know it's funny, I always thought companies deliver products/services for the people, for their interests, not just thinking only at their personal balance sheet proffits.
You know what I think of all this, about the PS+ requirement? I think it's against consumer rights, no consumer protection here because it's a a case of abbuse (repet, only in my personal opinion, I have this right, right?). Honestly, think about it: I pay for a product (or get it free on promotion) and then I realize myself that I need to spend extra money because that's what others want or maybe that's what you want. Plus, I don't want any more subscriptions since I'm sick of all the subscriptions and fees and good deals, etc. I'm sure PS+ is a good deal but I care less, all I care is to pay for this game (PVZ GardenWarfare) and to fully enjoy this game on PS4.
If something human still resides in you, please put away your corporate attitude and for once, try to think and remove that PS+ requirement.

Hi,
Im a littel supprised about this, because when you read on the game cover, it reads "Online mulitplayer only: Playstation Plus required". To me that means that only for Online multiplay that Plus is required. This combiend with the back cover stating, that 1-2 players in one field, and in another yellow marked field, it says "Network Players 2-24 playstation plus required". Again, this indicates, that you can play 1-2 players but if you want to play 2-24 you will need plus subscription.
So if EA would have marked the cover clearly with "Game does NOT function without PS plus subscription", then I wouldnt have been sitting here at Christmas with two really disapointed kids and an unpacked unplayable game that I cant return.

So am I to understand the game can't even be played at all without ps+ subscription? Because I haven't been able to play at all and it's trying to get me to subscribe. I already paid for the game and now I have to pay more? I don't want online multiplayer etc, my son just wants to shoot zombies. Btw I did not get the free online version, I bought the disc at target.
If this is the case I'm returning the game. That is stupid.
There is no single player in Garden Warfare, every mode is multiplayer; unless you make a private game, but that's still online. PS+ is required on PS4 for all Garden Warfare versions, disc or digital, even if it was gotten for free.
In this case, I'll keep it installed on my PS4 and I will wait till Sony or EA decide to remove PS+ requirement for this game (If...of course, that's only my wish). From what I see, I'll have to have alot of patience since in my opinion, they will never have this req removed.
Anyway, EA, maybe a future patch to allow the game to be played locally in split screen or a bot match? That would be nice and this way I'll be finally playing my free copy of PvZ GW. All I want is to play it locally with computer controlled enemies, just like I did on my phone with early versions of this game.
Tx in advance,
KAT
