Well PSN is down for me. Was able to check out the updated library/voice commands though, so there's that.

 

[Summer Haze]

Didn't Sony say that they were going to implement some back-end improvements to PSN soon?

What happened to that?

 

[Coolbgdog12]

Try going into settings - storage and seeing if you have an option to enable USB Mass Storage somewhere, if you have that it might work.

That option is greyed out..

Gonna do some research real quick.

 

[biteren]

PSN seems to be down for me, anyone else?

Soony my dear chap. Soony.


Well I think we all knew PSN was going to be down when this update went live. Sigh it's absolutely embarrassing when you can correctly predict when an online service will go down. Imagine if XBL went down every time they updated (which is every month as of now).

 

[SSReborn]

Ugh this online service is the worst.

[Impeccable]

Ugh this online service is the worst.

It certainly is the second worst online service offered in the crowded console market, that is for DAMN sure!

 

[Live Free or Die]

working fine for me.

I can actually turn off the PS4 properly now, without a system error and "beep" "beep" "beep".. so there's that ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

 

[Portugeezer]

Hope PS4 sells like shit this holiday so I can actually play online... lol, seriously, every god damn time.

I got the triple beep just now... I never got it before.

 

[Etnos]

Considering there are only 2 major competitors, it does make it the worst. I have 8 friends on my PSN, takes foooorever to load the list with a 50mb/s connection, not cool.

 

[JTran2003]

Can watch Netflix but can't play destiny. Sony is trying to tell me to finish my chores and stop being lazy. I hate you for telling me what to do Sony!

 

[Boke1879]

Lol when and where did they say this?

 

[haZethew0rld]

This update just broke stand by mode. If I leave the ps4 in stand by mode it won't turn on after pressing the PS button on the controller, or trying to do it manually on the console. Its also blinking faster than I've seen it before. Have to disconnect the power cable which I hate. Sigh. Hopefully it won't damage my console.

 

[Daffy Duck]

It better not go down on Sunday for day zero.

I'll be pissed.

 

[cafemomo]

i pay these clowns $50/$60 a year for both my US and JP account.

Are they even considering using the money they get from subs to upgrade that i3 they are using to power the PSN servers?

 

[IAmRandom31]

people fully turn off their PS4's?

why?

in standby mode it is drawing like 10watt isn't it?

 

[Dragon]

Even now? Friends list seems much better on 2.0, for me at least.

Why are you paying full price in the states for Plus? That seems crazy to me.

 

[Clinton514]

PSN itself is working for me. It's just the PS Store that's dead for me.

 

[Vashetti]

How do you chose youtube quality ? I tried Avenger2 / trailer it looks like sd ...

Same with me, some things are are clearly playing in HD, some things aren't, even though I know they are in HD.

Streams fine in HD on my laptop and Vita.

I'm just pressing power off now so I don't have to unplug it or anything. Really annoying. I just hope they get it fixed really quickly.

The money probably gets funneled directly back to Sony so that the company doesn't fall into a hole in the Earth and melt in lava.

 

[Demetrius]

Worst paid service I have ever experienced. The only thing stoping me from switching to Xbone is my trophy list. Get your shit together, you incompetent fucks!

Rest mode seems to be working ok for me. Now just need Xperia remote play to start working!

In summer I do it because of storms.

 

[i_max]

Does anyone have a link to download this off the internet to a usb?

The official link is still for the last firmware.

 

[Impeccable]

In summer I do it because of storms.

Check out surge protectors sometime.

Down for me, US EST.

More like: why not?

 

[i-Lo]

Sounds like premature ejaculation with this update. The infrastructure wasn't ready to support the new functionalities.

 

[Live Free or Die]

You can't play games online?

 

[AngryKirby]

There is a different update file for fresh HDD installs, as well as the regular update, a fellow GAF'er here posted it;

THANK YOU SO MUCH <3<3

Can't log in atm because PSN is down but managed to get everything up and running

Thanks again <3

 

[Stealthcobra]

lol yeah right

 

[Nvzman]

So how do I get the USB Music Player app to show up? I plug my USB stick with the folder setup PS4/MUSIC/ and nothing pops up on my ps4

You dont need the PS4 folder. Just Music.

I got this triple beep a few nights ago. What does it mean?

One of the best Epic Tales from my Ass I've ever read!

 

[SSReborn]

How much noise do we need to make about the service before this shit gets resolved.

....wait....

we're already there...

 

[Summer Haze]

Lol when and where did they say this?

"Lol", here:

http://community.us.playstation.com/t5/PlayStation-Network-Support/MAINTENANCE-Monday-October-13th-2014/td-p/44617866

During this time we will deploy a series of back-end improvements to the network.

"Lol".

 

[i-Lo]

One of the best Epic Tales from my Ass I've ever read!

I will write a follow up book, you should read it.

Spoiler

Also your sarcasm detector is broken.

 

[UV-6]

Is anyone actually doing anything about this shit online service? Because voicing your opinion on a forum isn't going to work. We need to get a petition going. I'm serious. This is downright unacceptable for a paid service.

 

[flatearthpandas]

The good news: my PS4 downloaded the update on its own
The unsurprising news: PSN is down.
The shitty but expected news: I still can't move the icons for Playroom, Music Unlimited, or Video Unlimited off of my goddamn UI.

 

[Raptor]

Seriosly whats the problem?

Sony has billions, why they dont buy a few millions of servers and put them all over the world?

Surely that must be cheap no?

 

[Demetrius]

It up for me now but I can't log in to Destiny :/

 

[Nvzman]

You don't need the PS4/.

You dont need the PS4 folder. Just Music.

Thank you!

 

[De_Legend]

The meltdowns are hilarious.

It's updating the store.. it won't be down for 10 hours or whatever.

 

[Live Free or Die]

How much noise do we need to make about the service before this shit gets resolved.

The PSN isn't "down". The PS Store is under maintenance.
