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,
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.
- Anonymous10 years agoI agree fully.
Purhased the game as a disc. The markings on the jewel box really tell you that the game works as a standalone game and you only need PS+ account for multiplayer gaming.
I am taking the game back to the store and reporting EA to consumer authorities for misleading marketing.
DO NOT PURCHASE THIS GAME.- Anonymous10 years ago
The same for me. I have bought the game for my kids and it is useless without a PS+ subscription.
Don't buy it if you are not thinking on paying for a PS+ subscription.
They are just getting your money without any problem.
No answer at all.
WARNING: The same happen with Plants vs. Zombies™ Garden Warfare 2. Be careful before buying it.

We bought the disc for our son also for Christmas with a new PS4. It has worked perfectly well for 3 days and now it is insisting we buy PS+ and the game won't play at all! Very upset - we've always owned XBox and heard good things about PS4 - what a bad decision.

- Anonymous9 years agoI think this I BS. My son was given this game by some one and we'll be returning the game because we don't pay for the PS+ service. The game was paid for, why in the world do we have to keep paying each month to play? Does Sony upgrade the game, our PS4 or anything for paying hundreds of dollars each month? Why do we even pay for the gaming console console to begin with? I'm thinking it is better to sell and never buy from Sony if this is how they are going to do business. It's like paying Everytime you watch a movie you bought, it is wrong on so many levels.
- Anonymous9 years agoWhy can't this game be played without an account plus?
Why can it be played just online like most games! It doesn't stat that in front cover( permanent online connection it says), on back it says EA PLUS ACCOUNT needed but not clear!!- 7 years ago@ sampuddy6616
All Multiplayer games on Xbox One , Xbox 360 and PS4 need a subscription , sometimes MICROSOFT gives people a free WEEKEND where they dont need the Subscription. why do you blame EA for the things that Microsoft and Sony do?
