PS4 just arrived. Does the update require PSN? Was debating if I should do the USB option.

Nope, I unboxed it and did the USB update right away.

 

[Grinchy]

Resogun downloaded nice and fast. Things are starting to look up. I guess I might as well finally pop in Killzone.

[Brashnir]

What's the specific error code you guys are getting for PSN?

Please Wait.

I have tried signing in like 4 times now and nothing

I'm at about 900 attempts.

Overall, I gotta say Sony did a great job with the PS4, as far as system and controller are concerned, anyway. The controller is hands-down the best Sony has ever designed with it feeling almost directly evolved from the original Dual Analog controller that preceded the Dual Shock 1. The longer handles and the nicer triggers go a long way toward getting someone who prefers the XBOX pad design into Sony's side of things....still prefer the asymmetrical analog placement of MS' preference, though. Generally positive about the system OS, though it feels a little too inspired by the last major Playstation Store design and worked backward through to the XMB. Still, better by miles than what was before. Thankfully the installations are automatic, but the affect it has on other things running or downloading seems similar to the clunkiness of PS3. Streams seem horribly limited in resolution/framerate so far, but the fact that it feels fairly seamless to broadcast is a great thing indeed. Sadly, it's just going to be my Resogun machine for the time being as the rest of the day-one launch software really doesn't do much to blow my skirt up. Good job, Sony. Get with the software now.

It looks like the apps need to be signed by PSN to work, so not much works if you can't get on PSN

 

[Alucrid]

Sure thing, the reason PSN can't easily or quickly catch up to XBL is the same reason Apple couldn't catch up to Google Maps. It takes time and lots of money to build a network, Most of PS3's lifetime Sony invested as little as possible on PSN, whereas XBL has always been the center for Xbox. I don't like the Xbone or MS paywall, but it is what it is. MS has massively overbuilt capacity on their Azure network.

Also, lower quantities of Xbone produced and sold will make it easier.

Didn't call of duty bring down xbl in the past?

 

[Rebel Leader]

Yes I did.

Found the support page if you didn't find it: (this is what needs to be done with a new HDD)

[vctor182]

Man, seeing the Troubleshooting thread scares me... hope my PS4 unit doesn't have issues.

 

[Ubiquitar]

So your saying PSN is up?

lol Same here brother.

 

[x-Lundz-x]

PS4 just arrived. Does the update require PSN? Was debating if I should do the USB option.

No the update is totally separate from PSN.

 

[Fracas]

I just got
"An error has occurred. (E-82F001F8)"

I've also receive the network error and it's variations.

USB.



Me too. I got kicked from PSN.

Weird, I'm getting ce-32889-0. It's instant too, as soon as I hit "sign into PSN". I'm connected to the internet, but can't do anything with PSN.

 

[Saint Gregory]

Thank goodness I saw this thread, I thought I was going crazy with my PSN login just spinning and spinning...

It was like watching MS PR :/

Spoiler

I kid, somewhat

 

[Raven77]

So the only PS3 game you can stream to the Vita right now is Tokyo Jungle?

 

[The Last Wizard]

Having to install games even though it's a disc is fucking annoying, overall I've enjoyed my time with the system. There are problems I have but I see them getting resolved.

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

Sony still isn't saying anything about the error codes for COD and BF?
Im actually starting to get pissed. At least acknowledge it.

 

[Lighthouse]

Dang wrong thing I forgot and I had this problem last niggt but eventually found it and it was in a dumb spot.

Im looking everywhere man. So the download list does exist for sure, ya?

2 strange things. Killzone wont let me upload screenshots and I cant seem to delete Playroom. Wonder how much space it takes up?

Edit. Its 564mb

 

[dcassell]

Is my Plus account supposed to transfer automatically to my ps4 from ps3? The plus section of the PSN store is still asking me to buy it.

That's just the design right now. If you scroll to the right, the games pop up. It's a bit unclear at the moment

 

[mazillion]

The whole OS feels so next gen. It's really fast and multitasking is great with it. I love that things like downloads and installations aren't a hindrance now, they just go on their own. I actually suspended BF4 (in the middle of an online game) opened the PS Store and downloaded resogun and then instantly went back in my online game. Everything was so fast.

 

[ElectricBlue187]

Why couldn't they just put res0gun as a free pack in game, so I could be playing it right now instead of staring at this Please Wait... message, pissed off

 

[PaulKersey]

I love that I can't even test the browser out until I connect to PSN. Makes perfect sense.

 

[metsallica]

So with PSN down and no disc-based games, is there anything I can do at the moment other than meditate to the soothing sounds of the menu music? I think they knew this would happen, hence why it's so relaxing.

 

[Mik317]

2k is pretty awesome

 

[reilo]

PS4 just arrived. Does the update require PSN? Was debating if I should do the USB option.

I installed it just fine without being logged into PSN and it took all over 30 seconds to download.

 

[coldfoot]

Besides the infinite please wait cycle I've gotten a bunch of different error codes:
from SNE is currently undergoing maintenance (NP-35000-8) to connection reset to unknown error.

This doesn't apply to firmware update, as that's most likely a different server, by the time I set up the sound/video settings the fw was ready to install.

 

[Gary Whitta]

http://us.playstation.com/support/systemupdates/ps4/pc_update/index.htm

Yeah Sony does not do a great job of making the differences between the two pages clear.

 

[No Love]

PSN gives me no error message. Trying to sign into my account (first time) and it just says 'Please wait...' Dang. Why the hell do all these major publishers/companies have so much trouble getting servers up to handle launch day load of popular products?

 

[metsallica]

Why couldn't they just put res0gun as a free pack in game, so I could be playing it right now instead of staring at this Please Wait... message, pissed off

The best part is it HAS a free pack-in "game" and even that doesn't work without PSN.

 

[deftech sold out]

When trying to connect to PSN, I get a PSN is down for maintenance message.

 

[ElectricBlue187]

I love that I can't even test the browser out until I connect to PSN. Makes perfect sense.

You can open the user guide which is in a browser and on the Internet, but you can't change the URL ://///

 

[Razma1]

PS4 arrives tomorrow but I have to go away for the weekend for my sisters birthday nooooooooooooooo.

My PSN is Razmatazz if anyone wants to game when I get back I resubbed to gamefly and am gonna bring in Killzone and whatever else is available.

 

[MThanded]

Damn next gen is great. Can't use the browser without psn. Wut?

 

[Gordon Shumway]

When trying to connect to PSN, I get a PSN is down for maintenance message.

This just started happening for me..before it was Please Wait.

Damn next gen is great. Can't use the browser without psn. Wut?

Yo seriously WTF at that shit..

 

[Rollo Tomasi]

Streaming Need for Speed now:

twitch.tv/kreepmode

 

[Anival]

Im looking everywhere man. So the download list does exist for sure, ya?

2 strange things. Killzone wont let me upload screenshots and I cant seem to delete Playroom. Wonder how much space it takes up?

Yes there is an actual download list, I was trying to figure out how to cancel an upload and eventually found it. There was a list for downloads/uploads. I wish I can help I'm at work sorry. I did find one though.

 

[SpudBud]

Can you earn trophies offline?

 

[Korezo]

No psn, no access to nothing so I boot killzone single player and my goodness is that game so damn boring.

 

[UltimaPooh]

Got the Monday delay from Amazon.

Totes glad I preordered it June 11th.

 

[Baldwin_the_First]

Sorry if it's been answered already, but anyone having problems redeeming stuff? A buddy of mine can't even buy a one year of PSN+ because his credit card (which is good) is supposedly not right. Plus he tried redeeming his 30 days free with PSN+ that came with the box and says it's not valid. (mine too says the same thing)

 

[Gary Whitta]

Shoulda seen this PSN clusterfuck coming, it's still unacceptable though. Likely to get worse as more people get their consoles and log on tonight. Sony needs to roll out its TOP MEN stat.

 

[jaaz]

Killzone is amazing. Polygon are out of their minds.

The servers are being killed. Try it another time

 

[thatsafakewebsitebro]

No problems here. Loving my PS4 so far. Only gripe I have is the installation of everything. It's all good though. The controller has grown on me.

 

[ryanmac]

Haven't been able to get PSN to connect all day. I did the USB stick update. Oh well. Waiting game.

 

[EvB]

Waiting game.

Does that require PSN?

 

[Jeels]

How do you get the touch screen functionality in Playroom to work (I mean the second screen stuff where your drawings show up in the game)?

 

[Baldwin_the_First]

The servers are being killed. Try it another time

haha ok so it's just a matter of the servers being too busy at the time! Thanks bud.

 

[mugurumakensei]

Greatness awaits once you can sign onto PSN. Been trying to sign onto this thing for one hour.

 

[Matrix XII]

Got mine fired up and it works great so far! Big sigh of relief!

I have the 1.5 firmware update on my USB but it won't recognize my USB. Small issue though, I'll get it worked out.

So excited!
