"Like a one man human centipede"

ok ive watched this for 5 minutes, i dont know how you guys did any longer...going to have to turn it off, he clearly fucked his console by turning it off during an update or w/e, im guessing a launch console is very very unstable and easy to fuck up

I couldn't even stomach that. As soon as started viewing: IDIOCY. Or trolling. Or FUDing.

Either way, I want no part of it.
 
If we're gonna keep updating the thread title with a bunch of inside jokes, can we update the OP as well to explain what's going on to new people? thx
 
wtf happened in here

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

he let it go just before the 3rd beep
 
If you pull up the twitch stream of Yoshida playing Sound Shapes in another tab, you will have a nice, relaxing soundtrack to watch these three goobers with.
 
Writing this again, with more clarification.

Look. This is a comedy of errors. People are thinking that two beeps is the key. It's NOT!

Look at the first post of this thread:

There's instructions there on how to get into safe mode.

Note that it says the two beep thing is ONLY for IF the light is ORANGE.

So what he needs to do is this:

1) STOP FUCKING SWITCHING INPUTS

2) Plug the PS4's HDMI into HDMI Input 2

3) Set the TV to HDMI2. The reason why I say HDMI2 for the input is so we are using a completely different input for certain and to check the connection chain properly.

4) Make sure the PS4 does NOT have the hard drive plugged in and that the PS4 is completely turned off.

5) Now Unplug the power from the system. JUST TO MAKE SURE IT'S OFF.

6) Plug the power into the system. DO NOT ACCIDENTALLY HIT THE FUCKING POWER BUTTON.

7) Now, Touch the power button lightly on the PS4 and hold it in for 7 seconds UNTIL IT BEEPS. Hopefully this will put it into safe mode. DO NOT SWITCH INPUTS WHILE IT'S DOING THIS. The system has to do handshaking with the TV.

Have the mods give me chat abilities on Twitch! Schrade_bofh is the nick

SONOS MAKE IT HAPPEN. And for the love of God close the damn chat on Twitch, he's getting distracted and talking to trolls. He obviously needs to friggin' focus for these steps.
 
Wow, this thread blew up, what the hell is happening??

Guy is streaming his broken PS4(He broke it by unplugging his ps4 while downloading DCUO which had stopped loading), complains to customer support for 4 hours whilst simultaneously being trolled by the people in his stream(Internet and all that), Ign decides that this is worth posting an article about. Finally through the troubleshooting in that 99% troll comments section he takes his HDD out, tries to turn on his PS4, gets an error, but at least it boots. He then puts the HDD back in and everything work. Guy then proceeds to pat himself on the back for being better than Sony Customer Support.... Then proceeds to once again break the ps4 by trying to download DCUO again. He is currently trying to fix it again, doing things such as turning on the PS4 while the hardrive isn't screwed in, plugging in the hard drive while the system is running, failing at holding the power button the amount of time necessary to boot in safe mode, and much much more, all while ignoring the Twitch admin's good advice. Then he finally listens to good advice, gets it working again, turns it off(to standby) and now it's broken again. He's now in hissy fit mode, all the while constantly switching inputs between hdmi and cable while trying to fix it. Thar's your summary, have fun.


There's more but I don't feel like updating this post, just copy pasting.
 
HE IS TAKING HIS THUMB OFF THE BUTTON WHEN HE TURNS IT ON. I HAVE SEEN HIM DO THIS MULTIPLE TIMES.

And he deliberately takes his hand off the power button again.

(I've got an insult I've been saving up, but this guy doesn't deserve it. Will wait for MS's next screwup.)
 
By sheer blind luck he would have gotten it to work by now. He is intentionally borking it to keep the users viewing the channel.

Why? If it's a problem with the hardware, then it will not. Why would a unpaid guy do 10 hours of streaming want to stay like this?
He's just trying to fix the problem before the Sony box comes in.
