I know it's a storm of midnight launchees, but what ever happened to the feature of playing someone else's PS4? They mentioned a scenario of if I'm stuck at a tricky part, I can invite you, you control my game from your PS4, and beat the part for me.

Yeah, but nothing's loading at all. It's like as soon as you hit the Multiplayer button from the starting screen, it just goes to black and nothing happens. With previous iterations, you'd at least go to a Multiplayer welcome screen before it tries forcing you to connect to PSN. Single player is working fine though, game looks sexy as hell.

The headset that comes with it is a microphone, so thats what its being used as, not for hearing game noise. If you want to set it to hear "all noise", go into the settings and go to Audio, and select "Output to Headphones>ALL AUDIO".

Thanks for all the beta testing guys... 
This is going to be a long two weeks.

With all these network issues it'll probably be a good idea to buy Killzone retail instead of trying to download it huh?
I'm slowly getting logged in, but each step takes about 5 minutes to load. I just want to get my profile loaded so I can start to earn trophies at least.
A few initial impressions
1.) The Dualshock 4 hype is real. This thing feels amazing. I liked the DS3, but it feels so...cheap..in comparison. Huge improvement in every way.
2.) I'm really liking the new UI. Very intuitive and slick. Another big improvement over the PS3.
3.) If the 1.5 patch is any indication, download speeds should be much improved. I got the entire patch in just a few minutes, while at PS3 speeds it would've taken a half hour at least for me.
Hopefully I get into PSN soon and I'll start throwing in some games.

I'll test it out in a bit after I get to a checkpoint in KZ.
Was that their first offer?

did anyone record direct feed footage of NBA 2K14 & FIFA?
Sweet, haven't noticed it mentioned but glad to hear it wasn't a pie-in-the-sky promise and forget situation. Hopefully.

Do you have to enable some license in the settings like you did with the PS3?
Mine did it by number. It went really fast. I was number 40 and was out by 12:10.

No one wants a throne you've been sitting on!
Am guessing all you guys here too are having a big no go with logging into PSN and such?
Hearing that it seems to be a widespread problem and no surprise too considering how many folks must have their systems by now across the US.

Yeah. Think I could have done better?
Works now, that was strange. I wonder if Sony can lock out games like that from being shared.
Here's my shitty half unboxing video for people bored like me waiting to log in to psn:

try booting into safe mode and install with USB if that works. I think you hold the power button down until double beep.
Well that's weird... maybe try putting it in safety mode?

You can probably boot into safe mode by holding the power button for seven seconds. You should get an option to recover. If in doubt call customer support.
