You should feel some feling of feels of sone sort of feel

Well thought out response.

This is so embarassing for sony. And what good advertising for them when their console can't connect online for 2 days after christmas.

Didn't hurt xbox 360 that one year

And as a sorry they gave undertow

Still did hurt them

Well thought out response.

Why thank you

Even though the sarcasm is stong

 

[Samus4145]

Woke up to find some people online. I still can't connect and since 90% of my games are digital and it's a secondary account, I can't start any game. Haven't been able to get on since 12/24.

I think Sony needs to reconsider their entire license process for the PS4.

 

[gregor7777]

People can feel however they want, but it's odd that I'm seeing more hostility towards Sony than the kids who launched the DDoS Attacks.

Ignorance, but forgivable ignorance in this situation IMO. When the "competition" is back up for days, and you're not, I can see being angry. Rational or not.

I mean, anger isn't the most rational emotion to begin with.

They are exactly who I am pissed at. They did this shit, not Sony. However, I do wish they would sort this mess out.

 

[test_account]

Indeed.

Sony is not a special flower who should be immune to criticism.

Saying "calm down" doesnt mean that criticism cant be made though.

Why is it not a primary account? All accounts should be set to primary.

 

[WolfForager]

God damnit, got an error code just as my PS4 was finishing restoring the licenses.

I'm fit to break something.

 

[Venfayth]

I don't know why people feel the need to defend Sony in the first place. They're doing their best to get everything working, I'm sure, but they're under no obligation to be shielded from people telling them "You need to do better."

 

[Sweet Ivy]

Well, I was just able to sign into PSN and enter Destiny.
No PSN store, but in this moment I don't really care.

 

[VeryGooster]

Lmao at that Kotaku piece."For the greater good." Delusional.

I actually logged in after manually adjusting the MTU settings and while I was watching streams I couldn't dl Geometry Wars 3 from my library or get onto GTA Online.

 

[gregor7777]

Right. But I think it's pretty clear there is a subset of people doing "damage control". I don't get that. We own the fucking system, and we want to play it.

Live's been up for a day and a half for us. The PS4 is essentially a paperweight.

 

[ggnoobIGN]

An 80s style crash and infustry reset wouldn't be the worst thing to happen, other than to people who would lose their jobs.

True

I was referring to the other posters, I agree with you.

 

[canedaddy]

Blaming Sony is like blaming a woman for getting raped after having a couple of drinks, or a family for getting robbed because they left a window unlocked. This is all squarely on the shoulders of the perpetrators, not the victims.

Woke up hoping things would be better this morning -- still unable to connect on PS4. Bummer.

Go on.

Simple analogy about blaming the victim... not hard to comprehend.

Days?

funny considering xbl was down again last night.

Carry on...

 

[gregor7777]

Days?

Yep. We've been playing on Live since late Christmas afternoon. 25th. Almost 48 hours. You'll forgive me for rounding up.

funny considering xbl was down again last night.

Not for us friend. We played AW from 8pm to like midnight EST. Not saying it wasn't down for others, but multi was full for us the whole time.

 

[Horsemama1956]

Uhhhh okay have fun without all those great 2015 exclusives I guess.

Can't live without those exclusives.

 

[Rebel Leader]

It's horrible

Thread keeps delivering.

Yep, the reactions here are glorious in their ridiculousness. I mean, there's a guy comparing it to rape for fuck sake.

Maybe he ment it more as "raging about it wont make any difference". People can be frustrated and angry about the downtime though, i totally see that, just to have mentioned that.

Now we need a Hitler reference and we're all good.

 

[Venfayth]

Aside from your shocking lack of tact, it's a shitty analogy.

PSN and XBL are professional services provided by multi-billion dollar corporations who have a duty to provide service to their customers. When it's clear that it's possible for a company to do better than another at providing those services in the face of adversity, you cannot simply ignore the fact that Sony may simply be doing a bad job.

Oh I gotcha, people are quick to be super offended by those types of analogies though. I'm not because it's a hypothetical.

 

[boredandlazy]

There've been people posting in this thread that haven't been able to. Just as there've been people posting in here that say they can log into PSN.

I also get an error. 463/470 and it craps out on me.

All my content is locked out.

Fuck you Sony.

This page is saying PSN is back online, but I still can't get into the store on my PS4.

 

[gregor7777]

There've been people posting in this thread that haven't been able to. Just as there've been people posting in here that say they can log into PSN.

OK, but I think that you can agree Live has been back up for the majority of users for some time. PSN is still mostly down. This isn't news. Finding the exceptions here is picking at nits.

I want to play my fucking PS4.

 

[Live Free or Die]

weird, now its saying my login info is incorrect.

 

[gregor7777]

Why not let it go? The emotion is understandable. Every one of those posts is quoted by the same few people.

Do we have an evidence that XBL and PSN are hammered by the same amount?

 

[ironcreed]

Not here. Everything is working like a charm on Xbox One. I bought and downloaded Sniper Elite III and was connected the entire time playing it last night.

 

[gregor7777]

Likely a back end box isn't responding. I would wager that means it's close though. Progress.

 

[therealminime]

I can log into PSN but it's not hitting the servers to verify licenses so I still can't play anything. Lame.

Oh, definitely. I'm sure there are a higher percentage of people who can use live than can use PSN. I'm still locked out of PSN myself, but all I've been playing recently is the single player of GTAV, so I haven't felt the pain as much as others.

Although in the next few days I was hoping to play some Diablo 3 with my friend, so here's hoping.

 

[Spacejaws]

Well theres about 18,000 people on Battlefield 4 PS4 so it myst be working in some regard. It wont let me activate a primary console and the store comes up 'under maintenance'
