PSN is available in 69 countries around the world.

(Source: https://www.playstation.com/country-selector/index.html)

right now there are (roughly) 190 independent countries in the world.

The whole of Africa (except for SA; thanks to u/ItzOnza), Egypt and even european countries like Belarus don't have PSN.

But OP these are meanie states that don't have fair laws jadajada

The Baltics - states that are part of the european union - are also excluded.

These people can't create accounts.

If your country is not on the list, try to create an account in a supported region, but remember:

Sony has the right to ban you for false credentials. You'll need a VPN and must pay in the currency of the country you choose.

(https://www.playstation.com/en-us/legal/psn-terms-of-service)

3.1. All information provided during Account creation, and during the use of your Account, must be accurate and complete. We reserve the right to suspend, terminate or restrict any Account (including as stated in Section 12.2 of this Agreement) that uses or was created using false information, or that we determine was created or used for a purpose that violates this Agreement.

3.2. During Account creation you must select the country or region of your residence and in which your account will be registered in. Once your account is created, you will not be able to change the country or region code associated with your account.

12.2. Suspension or Termination by SIE. With or without notice, we may restrict, suspend or terminate your PSN Account and PlayStation Device, or indefinitely restrict, suspend or discontinue your access to or, or use of, certain PSN Content, offerings, features, products and services, if you violate this Agreement or we have a reasonable belief such a violation has or will occur, or as otherwise may be reasonably necessary to protect our PSN users, our partners, our platform, or other SIE interests.

Maybe this helps you understand why some people are annoyed.

They will be locked out. Sony MUST find a solution for this and it can't be: Lie about your credentials and risk that we might ban your helldivers account.

TL;DR: PSN is not available world wide, not even in all countries of the EU. Sony has the right to ban everyone who uses wrong credentials.

Edit: This post is only supposed to give some background, because a lot of you don't seem to know this.

You also don't have to attack each other and/or spam the same comment under each comment you disagree with. Please be civil, Helldivers only attack bugs and bots, not other helldivers.

And I ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ live in Baltics!

Sony's lawyers still think Baltics are part of Soviet Union. That's insulting.

No I was just highlighting his predicament and the retardation of Sony. If anything I am giving him a warning to be careful. Maybe think before posting?

if you're in the EU then you can report helldivers for selling the product and then region locking it so that you can't use it anymore

[Sido Olavich]

I'd also even suggest approaching Valve and flag that the game is being sold in regions that are not supported. Valve do actually take that seriously.
