PlayStation 4 Console Thread

[Robo_1]

No. I hadn't really thought that necessary though. I only actually bought my PS4 3 weeks ago and it has done it since the day I bought it. It sometimes loads the store. But on most occasions it doesn't

The store has always loaded up without issue here. I certainly wouldn't characterise your problem as normal behaviour. How are the other network features, download speeds okay, do you have problems playing online?

[Darren Anthony]

Everything else works perfectly.

If I switch the console off & power back up, I can access the store straight away. But as soon as I've been into a game, app, etc, then I can't get into the store again.

[Ferine]

I've had the Store not appear before. Logging out and back in again fixed it.

[BubbleFish]

My Unit won't wake from standby since upgrading. Had to pull the plug as it was completely unresponsive. Reddit already has a list of people reporting the same. Balls.

[Bazjam]

Apparently it's something to do with trying to upload cloud saves. Just had to hard reset mine. Going to have a good look in my settings once I can get my son of Fifa.

[rafaqat]

erk. Think I might hold off a day or two.

[Avuncular]

I used to keep getting an error when trying to run Destiny. I remedied it by standing the PS4 on its side. Just did the system update and it's back to not working properly.

Why not return to retailer?

[Bobbi Champagne Jr]

You tried turning off HDMI Device Link/CEC, bwhana?

hmm, no, I'll give that a go.

[Avuncular]

Too much hassle. They'd probably want to send it off for repair.

Fair enough. I'd be sending that fucker off regardless in case it's an indication of problems in the future!

[Simmy]

Great update this, really like it.

[joffocakes]

Glad there's an option to pause downloads; really missed that. Does it also now automatically open messages or trophies if you press the PS button while the notification is on screen? I miss that from 360.

Looking forward to seeing how Towerfall multiplayer fares via Share Play. Local Remote Play being bad enough doesn't give me much confidence.

[Simmy]

That paper theme is the best thing ever

[BubbleFish]

What paper theme? I just have flow

[Simmy]

Strange, this is how mine looks. New music and everything

It does for trophies, each one has a small PS icon next to it. I don't know about messages as I haven't got one since the update. i like the way the PS icon on screen glows when you press the home button on the controller.

[BubbleFish]

Found a thread elsewhere that said only the Japanese and HK regions had themes so far.

[Majora]

Themes will probably appear when the store updates tomorrow.

[BubbleFish]

Hmm, now the "more info" page that drops down from a game or app icon won't appear. Not feeling confident about this update

[Simmy]

Share play Is region locked. So if you buy your games from the US store then it's a no go.

You can't see that when you're not connected to the network either so I guess it's just high traffic preventing its loading, rather than an issue with the update. Not that that's a good thing either.

Region locked how? People with US accounts can play together, or people with US games on a PAL console can't Share Play?

[rafaqat]

I'm assuming it means you can't share out a game to someone who is not in the same region as you

Exactly. And it's by game, not account.

Buy a US game to play on your UK account and it won't work.

I get this too. Just a blue screen. Works eventually.

[Bazjam]

The youtube apps a big bonus for me. Can see myself using it loads.

[Simmy]

Couldn't sign into the youtube app earlier.

[joffocakes]

I'm getting a strange little flashing rectangle of squares, like a broken LED sign, at the top left of my screen when I use and of the new themes other than Flow's colours. Does anyone else have this?
