The Official PlayStation Thread Vol. 5 | SOP Today 3PM PST / NEW Firmware Update is LIVE / PS5 Pro launches 11/7 for $699

There are millions of PS5's out there.
The one's with the issues are the minority otherwise it would've made the news if the majority had issues.
Reviewers would also have had a field day.

We've had 2 firmware updates. After the 3rd I don't think there's any more need to baby the system.

I’m really just trying to convince myself because I can’t get my hands on one.

Which one of you NT'ers is this?

 

[DungaDon]

Does it turn on at all?

My PS5 would turn on but would shut off at the PS logo over and over again

Try holding down the power button to see if you could access Safe Mode

Tried that.. my shxt is dead. Called Sony and they said to send it in for repair/replacement

 

[Ricky D]

Has anyone heard about a PS Plus error on Black Ops?

it’s saying I need plus when I try to access multiplayer but it doesn’t expire until next year.

I’ve tried logging in and out, restarting, even deleting and reinstalling the game but it’s still giving me those error. WTF man

I just came to to post this. It’s happened to me twice. I had to restart the PS5 from the UI and then I was able to login and play. It’s weird cause when I click on the PS+ prompt, it shows that I have PS+ until July 2023

Couldn’t be me. My wife already knows I have to have it day one by any means. She would most likely try and catch a deal first. She already asked why I bought and extra controller. “You know they’ll be on sale next Black Friday”

 

[brendasdeadbaby]

It’s $25 at GameStop an I think upgrade is $20 on psn

Upgrade is free for both

 

[CrownRoyalDaddy]

Yea I think yall arr bugging babying your system. You paid $500 for it and have a warranty. Play that **** and put it in rest mode if you want to (i do)

you gonna end up waiting on firmware to fix what might be a hardware issue. Then when you start using it and it bricks, your warranty runs out

My thoughts exactly. I know it's more difficult with bots but nothing less than day 1.
That story with the man lying that his PS5 is an air purifier and having to sell it is more likely to happen to me than my girl getting it before me.

Went down a rabbit hole after first vid.

 

[Figured it out]

Trying to scoop my homie one . Our local target has 16 said wait til they go online and they don’t know when that is

told dude to preorder when I did lol

And if these hardware issues were affecting alot of consoles, we would've heard SONY saying something by now.

New electronic tech is a risk when they release. I knew that going in.

At a point, em ps5 vids looking corny.
Not the least bit entertained.

I think I want Madden for ps5, gonna get the ps4 version, upgrade digitally, then return ps4 version

You'll need to keep the disk or the game won't run.

 

[brendasdeadbaby]

if you have a digital ps5 and have the ps4 disk you can contact ea with your ps and ea credentials so they can verify both accounts and get the digital upgrade

much harder than wolfenstein 2 or doom 2016. them trigger fingers and reflexes about to be tested.

 

[Bad Religion]

So trying to play Destiny 2 last night.

Kept saying unable to connect due to not being online. Close the game, test network connection. All show perfectly fine. Try numerous times to connect on Destiny 2, same error message.

Boot up PS4 and log in immediately.

Love the wolfenstein series.

Looking forward to this.


Haven't played a Doom game since the 90s on PC.

 

[art vandelay]

We have the game for both systems and just in my opinion the difference is neglible.

 

[Mark Antony]

I feel like i'm not seeing the same thing in these 2k reviews claiming smooth gameplay.

 

[kingjaffejoe]

Was finally able to get the Pulse headphones from Target. Popfindr showed 1 in stock late last night. Went early this morning and the guy was able to grab them out the back for me

 

[John Wick]

Man i know yall probably tired of hearing all these issues

but is anyone else demon souls unable to connect to server at the main game at the menu?

 

[sssstan]

still yet to play 2K, might have to pop it in after i finish work and see how "smooth" gameplay and all that actually is

 

[D Double]

I think he's referring to smooth as in locked 60fps not the animation or gameplay.

We have the game for both systems and just in my opinion the difference is neglible.

Even the load times?

That seems substantial to me
