Don't they do free MP weekends often?
I was without ps+ for a long time and was able to do MP in Elden Ring a few weekends.

I'd have thought allowing everyone to use PS+ for 5 days for free would generate them a lot of money anyway. If a small % of those people stay on it would generate millions.
 
Back in 2011 it had bothered me a lot, because I was playing UC2 MP religiously with friends.

It's the reason Christophe Balestra added LAN mode in UC3 MP (he wrote the code himself) to be able to play it during downtimes:
These days not so much... there's nothing to play (1st party MP).

One thing I remember about the 2011 hack was the big deal being made about Portal 2 on PS3 and everything it was doing.
Then the hack happened just as it launched, messing all those plans up.

Thinks buying more servers can fix a bad patch

So the hack screwed up the Portal 2 launch back then?
 
Not sure how it sold but didn't help with the online side of it which is a lot of what they were promoting, as far as I remember.
I don't remember anything about it, but I remember this one:

It's a shame modern games no longer include LAN mode (only Nintendo offers it these days).
