I think the guy said he unplugged the system while it was updating or something. Why would someone do something like that?

edit- but LOL at the people in his chat room trolling him

Good lord.

Streaming some NFS here: www.twitch.tv/LtCasual

What are your thoughts on the game so far? Is it as fun as NFS Hot Pursuit? Can you play in a single player mode or is it online/multiplayer dependent? Im just wondering what happens when people stop playing it if I will still be able to play it offline years from now

 

[Bunta]

Debating if I should update to 1.5 on the system or through USB. Hmmmm

 

[TimeEffect]

That PS4 fix live stream is painful. I feel dumber for watching for 5 minutes,

CS: "Hold down the power button until you hear 2 beeps".
Streamer: ::1 beep, takes off finger:: Ok.
Repeats same process 2 or 3 times

He's a giant manchild. It's like watching DSP's twin brother

 

[Gary Whitta]

The PS4 brickstream chat is now being dominated by penis and doge ASCII art. Sony was right, this is the future of entertainment.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Debating if I should update to 1.5 on the system or through USB. Hmmmm

After experiencing the loop with my PS3 during the last update, i'm never updating through Sony's servers again. USB all the way.

 

[Grinchy]

When I started watching the brickstream, I think it had like 900 people. It's at 4600+ now. This is just getting crazy.

 

[R3TRO]

Nice looking cat.

[borghe]

Brick stream is the epitome of train wreck. Holy shit.

He's saying he waited but they said he unplugged it with the screen off before it finished. Like his buddies talking, not chat.

 

[PhylteR]

Oh man, so I can't create folders and sort my games into "Free to play", "Demos" etc? =;(

Maybe that was before the fw update? Can't believe that de PS4 wouldn't have sorting options in the library... It was a basic (and necessary) function already on the PS3.

I'm kinda tired of people who say that TwitchTV Chat is crazy. It is, but with a decent amount of mods and bots, It's manageable.

Pretty much how I feel about today.

[Charcoal]

For anyone that already has one and updated from USB, do we need to put the file in folders like with PS3?

 

[opticalmace]

Held a DS4 for the first time today. Only about 30 seconds max.

First impressions is it isn't as comfortable as a DS3 or 360 controller, something about the angle of the grips relative to centre. Won't put me off though, as it was just a quick try.

Stay safe, stay warm! I remember waiting out in the cold for the Wii U and an autograph ticket at NYCC for Yoshitaka Amano last year (Separate events), and it was like Cocytus had cracked open and surrounded the area.

I haven't but here's a guide:

Also, what are people referring to when they are talking about FAT or whatever for the USB?

I walked outside to take out the trash today and broke into a marathon sprint to get back to my house, freezing outside.

Going by that one thread, USB by far!!!

No preorder? Good luck though, and stay warm!

 

[Downhome]

Is that cat...crosseyed?

Cats and boxes, what a pair. I really wish I could understand their thinking.

 

[Grinchy]

I'm doing USB just because I don't want to have to wait for it to download, especially if the servers are getting hammered on Friday.

 

[MilkBeard]

Pretty much how I feel about today.

Ha ha. This is great. It's actually how I've started to feel about video game reviews in general.

 

[MilkBeard]

Sweet. I've already downloaded the update to a USB drive, so I'm good to go. Can't wait.

 

[Shrewder]

By ourselves at gstop.

Rock on, brother. Rock on.

I'm going to check out local retailers, on my way to work, to see if any lines are forming. Got a personal phone call from my local Best Buy saying my pre-order is for pick-up at midnight tomorrow.

 

[meanspartan]

Anyone got a link for where to download onto USB? And then, do I just plug it into the ps4 and get to it through the XMB or is there something more to it?

 

[rezn0r]

hope you guys brought your flasks! good luck & i'm oddly jealous (preordered mine on amazon so not TOO jealous)

That's cool that messages and icon pop ups are censored during a stream.

 

[Justified]

Can anyone confirm that the update did in fact bring support for Headsets through USB, specifically Pulse Elites?

The very same 2 games I got. And I told myself I wouldn't over saturate myself with shooters ><

To be fair to me. KZ was going to be my launch games but friends convinced me to get BF4 as it was my free Amazon game.

I cancelled NFS since it won't be here until next Tuesday and ordered a 1TB Hybrid SSD.

 

[Snookie]

Just curious if anyone has heard anything from Best Buy yet. I'm fairly confident i'm getting one since I pre-ordered for in store pickup early am 6/11.

Here's a Resogun video I uploaded to facebook to give you an idea on quality. It ain't pretty. When viewed on the console it's very clearly only 30fps, but the compression isn't so bad.

What's the quality like for screenshots?

 

[Yellow J]

I need some people to get on BF4. It looks so beautiful and the maps are huge with more capture points in conquest. Get your damn PS4s already.

 

[-NeoTB1-]

For those of you camping out for a PS4 - stay warm, and stay safe! Good luck.

I'm really impressed by how small this thing is. Smaller that both my Slim and 360. Longer, but way shorter.

via twitter, which re-compresses them again.

Any word on stores carrying the Ps4 stand tomorrow night? The ps blog faq said it would be available at launch for $14.

Have you downloaded Blacklight Retribution? I'd like to see screenshots to see how it looks on PS4.

 

[Prologue]

I actually might be canceling my PS4 bundle Battlefield from amazon. Still got a lot of games to play on PS3(been busy this summer) and would rather pick up the PS4 with one or two more exclusives. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post this but if I'm not, I will happily edit the post. Figured a gaf user could use the amazon preorder instead of it getting shuffled around amazon.

My amazon purchase was $544.27 and would let it go for 604.27 so I can at least get a $50 profit from it outside of fees.

 

[TheExecutive]

got my shipping confirmation from amazon! So excited!

Killzone was my only title but once I got the B1G1 coupon, I decided to sell my first Killzone copy and just get Killzone again and BF4. I also want to get a 1TB hybrid drive myself.lol

And about the camera, its from a Galaxy 3 shot in poor lighting with the contrast enhancement on.

 

[Doran902]

couple dumb questions, do i need the camera to play flower and does anyone know if there will be any demo's available at launch?

No you don't need the camera for that game.
