But the console is horizontal right Danji?

If the Console has to always be used horizontal to avoid issues, then the design of the Console is flawed.

Launch console, *heavy* use, vertical placement since I had it, haven't cleaned out the dust in a while, ZERO issues with FFXVI

Same. Its almost as if these are a minority of a minority that people are trying to make a much larger deal than it really is. Like with the Switch's "dock scratching", Xbox Elite Controller "breaking", etc. You don't hear from the millions who don't have any issue because, why would you? You only hear from the folks who have an issue so it looks like a bigger deal than it really is.

 

[Kagoshima_Luke]

Thanks for beta testing, PS5 owners.

 

[Nubulax]

Havent had one issue with the PS5 so far and this game, been running great on Quality mode

 

[Kilau]

Thanks for beta testing, PS5 owners.

Yet we can be sure the PC version will still be a mess at launch.

 

[shubik]

The game crashed my ps5 3 times yesterday. Each time I had to manually unplug the console to restart it. I haven’t had this kind of shit since the release of Cyberpunk. What the hell is this bullshit?!?

Sounds like a you issue, not the issue of the game.

Don’t think so. My PS5 runs flawless since day one. This is the only game I have such a problem with.

Xbox Elite Controller "breaking"

I returned 4 of those shitpads.
Gave up in the end

 

[KrisB]

Got up to the part that they’re referring to and had no issues on my launch PS5. Haven’t heard the fans turn on once. Really surprised as some parts are intense.

Glad SE are back, loving this.

 

[ArtHands]

Did you clean your PS5 every 2 weeks?

 

[StueyDuck]

Isn't Murica having like an insane heatwave?

wouldn't it make sense that things that create heat are getting to hot in an intense heatwave?

Here in SA in the summer my PC can get out of hand hot, before my new build with the liquid cooler i'd have my fans in jet mode in the summer to keep the PC running optimally

 

[GeekyDad]

This is awesome news if true. I mean, this is what you live for as a gamer. A game that makes the power lines blow!

 

[Kurotri]

Yep, same here.

 

[Rea]

No issue here so far, after afew eikons battles done. Launch console. Vertical stand.

 

[Hudo]

The overheating is just the combat timer to enhance the drama of the fight. Dunno what's wrong with you guys. Just beat the boss faster.

 

[Kamina]

What is that?

It’s a heatsink for the internal SSD extension

[TheRedRiders]

Almost halfway through the game, not having any issues with my PS5 at all. It’s in the vertical position.

It’s pretty warm here in the U.K as well.

 

[Krathoon]

You PS5 is so cool that it catches on fire.

They may need to adjust the BIOS to use the fan more often. It may not be kicking off early enough.

 

[Krathoon]

I may have to put my PS5 on a better power strip. I keep having power outages where I am at.

I worry that it may mess it up some day.

 

[SuperSaiyanWithDreads]

You all gotta buy those back fans they sell on Amazon to keep the PS5 from overheating

 

[Mr Moose]

Had a few boss fights and no issues so far. Hot as fuck in my bedroom (27.7C).

 

[xellos2099alpha]

I have issue with ffxvo but i am not sure if it is overheating. Whenver I change area, the is a chance the game will freeze and ps5 hard crash. When I csan reboot my ps5 it say sopmethign like reparing complete Sometime nothing happen within a few hours, sometime a hout in. When I turn the ps5 back it, it say will system repairing. Is my system overheating or some more serious problem like the hard drive? That would explain why game can crash when loading...

I got error code Erro code is CE-108262-9

Software related from what the Sony site says:

CE-108262-9​

There may be a problem reading the system software or application data.

Please update the system software and application to the latest version.​

Different site says it could be HDMI device link related:

Fix 2: Turn off HDMI Device Link​

PS5 is designed with an HDMI Device Link feature that enables your TV to communicate with the PS5 console more easily and conveniently. With this feature enabled, you can perform limited operations of your system using your TV’s remote control.

However, this feature might cause problems sometimes. If you encounter the PS5 CE-108262-9 error code again and again, you can try disabling HDMI Device Link to troubleshoot the error. And here are the detailed steps.

Step 1: On the home screen of your PS5 console, select the Settings icon.

Step 2: Navigate to System > HDMI.

Step 3: Find the Enable HDMI Device Link option and turn off the toggle to disable the feature.

People care about their PS5 more than one game; this might impact sales of the game for people of the worrying kind

 

[Little Mac]

I wouldn't expect from its size that it would have an issue overheating.

Regardless, I posted a video earlier on some precautions when cleaning the fans. Be careful.

if its installed on m2 drive, try moving game to internal and see if it makes a difference.
if not yeah maybe a drive issue, try uninstall reinstall maybe.
