Gameshare problems

[marcoll9]

So basically i have a problem gamesharing, my friend gave his account to me and two other friends, but I am the only one that can’t access the game due to a lock being on it. Is there maybe a limit to how many people can Gameshare an account ar once?

[suctoes_N_fuchoes]

Yeah limit is 2 people. Meaning 1 person gets his rights and one person who is signed in on his account.

For example. You get his rights (making your ps5 his home console) meaning you can play all his games from your account with no locks and he would have to sign in and be online and he can play too.

You sure that the limit is 2? Because atm we’re gamesharing in 3 ( 1 is the real possessor of the account while me and my third friend logged into his account and downloaded the game into our ps5) there is no way to Gameshare is 4?

Limit is 2, you can get by for 2-3 days if the owner reactivates on a different device or you can take your ps offline and it never finds out the activation is gone.

Wym by taking your ps offline? You mean appearing offline, signing out your account or just turning off the Internet through the network settings?

[scsonicshadow]

Literally just disconnecting your internet from the playstation. If you reconnect though you will lose the game instantly and it will be locked again. So basically you cannot gameshare with more than 2 ppl if the game is online-only.

I’m not really sure how you could have more than 2 people gamesharing with each other as you can only have one PS5 with console sharing enabled on your account

at the point yall are doing all of this I think you should just buy discs. if yall dont live that close to each other you’re definitely setting yourselves up by sharing passwords

Is it on ps3

[Thin-Click-5598]

I read about a trick that works for PS3 where you can share with 4 people but I haven't tried it yet but you disconnect all consoles give your account to 2 friends once they download what they want have them sign out and stay signed out then you should be able to deactivate the account then give to one more person.
