PlayStation 4 - Questions & General Comments on Console

[texacotea]

Been having issues with my ps4 dropping internet connection. Anyone else having g have this issue. The roku nor the ps3 do this. But my phone does it more often than not

Not sure how widespread this is, but last night and still this morning I am seeing that there is a sign-in issue on PSN. Upon attempting to sign in, users are told they must reset their password. At that point, the link in the e-mail or password (not sure which) do not work, basically locking the user out of PSN.

Following @AskPlaystation, they do not seem to think there is an issue but reading mentions indicates a different situation. I do not know if this issue is happening on PS3.

Anyone run into this? I'm staying off my PS3/PS4 until I know it has been rectified.

I wonder if it has something to do with the last PSN update. I fired up my PS4 this weekend and it ran an update on the PSN and on The Golf Club. Since the update I've been having all sorts of issues with TGC. It will start up, then tell me I have to be logged into the PSN to access the online features of the game (which are a larger majority of them). I am logged into the PSN but TGC tells me I'm "offline" I click connect to ONLINE on TGC and it tells me I must log into the PSN.

I posted this on their forums and others seem to be getting it too, it only seems to have started since the last PSN update.

As far as logging into the PSN I haven't had any issues. I played Counter Spy last night for about 2 hours and was logged into the PSN the entire time no issues.

I can log in no problem but I am noticing that it is failing to back my saves up to the cloud for some reason.

I got on the PlayStation store last night and had an odd moment where it couldn't authenticate me. Retrying worked though. No issues on PSN today though.

Obviously this is on PS3, not PS4

For the second time in about a month my licenses cannot be verified. Therefore I can't play anything that I've downloaded which is everything I own except MLB14. I, of course, have no desire to play that.

This shit is getting old.

Fixed itself again.

Last time it took waiting overnight. This time it took about 10 tries to finally let me play MY games.

I can't remember the actual name but there's something in settings/maintenance that lets you fix the issue. Something like refresh licenses or something along those lines. If you haven't figured it out, I'll take a look tonight when I get home from work.

Yeah, it's Restore Licenses.

Last time it would fail to restore them. This time it would restore them, allegedly, but still keep you locked out.

The 1TB PS4 is approved by the FCC, I'm waiting for someone to create a 3TB-4TB 2.5" SATA....

Or PS4 allowing extrenal HDD's.

I'm running a 3TD Seagate external on the XB1 and it runs games great.

Report: Nyko PS4 Data Bank Release Date Outed 6/9

I'm still at around 900GB so good for now. Gives it time to see how well it works and the price to go down.

[JBHuskers]

If you're thinking about getting this....



This would be a solid HDD that you wouldn't need to upgrade ever I'd think

Is heat going to be a problem with that Nyko device?

Good question - I always wonder that with any add-on like this.

[jaymo76]

Not sure why but I had to reset my Netflix account last night on PS4. Said my device was not registered. Working fine now but have not experienced that before.

Someone on the Sony forums suggested this SSHD as it is quicker....

Price isn't too much different from a regular HDD at 4TB.

This VR thing has BUST written all over it.

"The first time people try VR is the most dangerous time. People get used to it after a while, but the first is the most susceptible to motion sickness. So we want to get the hardware right."

Hell I cannot even play FPS so no way in hell will I be able to play VR no matter what they do.

The Amazon reviews for the Data Bank are all over the place right now.

One guy claims that packaging says you should only use a max of a 2GB HDD
