Where the desk learns from

This blog is a one-person news desk, so most of what ends up in a post started somewhere else. Before anything goes up, the desk leans on a short list of places, and none of them are companies we work for or take money from.

  • Official patch notes and developer posts for ARC Raiders, Escape from Tarkov, Overwatch, Warzone and Destiny 2, read in full and not from headlines.
  • Squad mates and readers who send in what they saw in real matches, raids and raids-gone-wrong.
  • Community guide writers, map makers and tool builders whose work stays public and who are happy to be named.
  • Our own play sessions, which are the only source for anything written in first person.

How other people’s work gets credited

Credit is simple here. If a route, a loadout idea, a map overlay or a settings tip came from someone else, the post says so near the top, not in a footnote nobody reads. We name the creator as they name themselves and describe what they did in our own words.

  • We summarise and link nothing we cannot stand behind, and we do not paste whole guides or copy their screenshots.
  • If a creator asks to be left out, we remove the mention and rewrite the passage without their material.
  • If an idea reached us secondhand and the origin is unclear, the post says that plainly instead of guessing.
  • Clips and images are our own captures unless the post states otherwise.

How corrections work

Games change weekly and the desk gets things wrong. When a reader spots a mistake, a stale patch detail or a misread mechanic, write to info@psnation.org with the post title and what looks off.

  • Small fixes, such as a typo or a wrong item name, are made quietly.
  • Anything that changes the advice, such as a nerf that kills a build, gets a visible correction line at the top of the post.
  • We do not delete posts to hide errors; the old claim stays visible with a note beside it.

If your own work should be credited and is not, or is credited wrongly, use the same address and say which post. A real person reads it and answers.
