Basebf555 posted:I can't play connect to the Bloodborne servers and some of my PSN store features arent' working. When the PS4 boots up it gives an error code, and when I look that up I can't get any straight answers. The code is nw-31456-9. I played Bloodborne all week without any problems using the same router and settings, I don't know what the hell is going on. Is this just a regular PS4 thing and I have to wait it out? I just bought the PS4 recently so I don't know if this will just go away after some hours. That code means the PS4 can't connect to the Playstation Network: https://support.us.playstation.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5111 do what that site says  wait

Basebf555 posted:The error code on the official site says I need to restart my router, which I did and nothing happens. I also rebuilt the database in safemode and that didn't do anything. Where does it say to restart your router and why did you rebuild your database? Since you say it worked all week i assume it hasn't been a problem for long. PSN might just be slow for you/your area - happens to other websites all the time. edit: from the website i posted 3 posts up: http://status.playstation.com/en-us/ PlayStation®Now Affected Platforms: PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4 Affected Services: You may be experiencing issues related to accessing content from PlayStation®Now.

Basebf555 posted:I apologize in my hurry I copied and pasted the wrong error code into my original post. I have a different but similar code that says to restart my router(NW-31294-9). I meant a temporary localised problem, it happens. You did the right thing restarting your router per the instructions. I was just confused, because the other error code basically tells you to wait for a while. Does other online stuff work (browser/ youtube) ? - if yes, your wifi connection is fine and it probably is a PSN problem. edit: also, can you try a wired connection?

Basebf555 posted:Unfortunately wired connection isn't an option for me, the router is too far away. So, I've just tried both my american and european account on my PS4; both had problems with some PSN services. In the EU one the store wouldn't work; US couldn't connect trophies, after a couple tries trophies worked but account management threw up an error. I'm on a wired connection, but these inconsistencies might freak your wireless out somehow. I'm not too bothered by it, PSN is unfortunately often a bit spotty.

I just bought this thing about a week ago so I have no idea what would be considered normal and I started to get worried that I had a serious issue on my hands. Happy to help Since your setup worked for the last week (and Netflix works currently) it really should sort itself out. As you said, there was a big release last week which probably means lots of people locking in the following sunday which in turn might lead to random weirdness.

Mediocrity Goggles posted:Well, seems what I have to do is register the japanese account as primary to actually be able to play the game I'm looking to get, so would paying for plus on the non-primary local account work for that? You don't register the account as primary, you register the PS4 as primary console for that account. You can have one PS4 registered as a primary for multiple acccounts. Register your PS4 as primary for all your accounts. "Primary" just means, that when you initiate a download via the webstore from your PC it will be donwloaded to your "primary" PS4 - that's really only relevant when you have multiple PS4s. edit: yes, that means your japanese game can use PS+ features (online gaming, cloud storage); you might have to play it from your US account though, once it is downloaded I use an EU and US account and play all games with my EU account without problem.

homeless snail posted:You got it backwards, you're not making the account the primary one on the PS4, you're making that console the primary one on your account. Accounts share PSN+ access and purchases with any other accounts on their primary console, so just make them both primary and your main account will be able to play EDF and your JPN account will be able to play online. Oh, ok. I wasn't sure about that part, just never had a reason to test it.

Gunder posted:Is there a consensus on which software is best for using your PS4 pad on PC? http://ds4windows.com/ The DS4 gets recognized as a generic gamepad; you need a wrapper (like ds4windows) so that games will recognize it as a XBox360 pad and to get the touchpad to work. https://inputmapper.com/ is another popular one, but I'm used to DS4windows and had no reason to upgrade in months

IcePhoenix posted:FFX can transfer saves between systems. I'm going to buy the game on my "new" account but just set up my "old" one (the one with the save) on the system so I can start from the same spot. Not having the trophies and stuff on the account I normally use kind of sucks but there are worse fates. Yep, that'll work. I didn't realise your FFX save was on a different system, now it makes much more sense.

Cable posted:We have only 1 store for the EU, so I don't think there would be a problem. Most games will just use the language your system is set at (eg: i live in Germany but my PS4 is set to english giving me english voices/text in games). Games in the digital store will always tell you which languages are actually available; Physical games don't seem to have that written on the packaging but a quick check at Amazon should help you there. Also: I've never had a PS3 or PS4 game without at least english language option (edit: they obviously exist, but are pretty rare).

The Black Stones posted:So I have a question about hard drives for Ps4. I've read that SSD's are never really worth it because games never take advantage of how SSD's work. I play a ton of FFXIV on my PS4 though, and it's constantly loading the same areas over and over again. Would the SSD actually have a loading improvement over a regular hard drive at that point, it would it not even be noticeable? Don't know about FFXIV specifically, but eurogamer tested several different HDD and different games last year: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2014-ps4-hard-drive-upgrade-guide short version: You will notice a difference in most games, but SSDs are so expensive that it's not worth it. ^^^^efb

BreakAtmo posted:I don't really see how these things are related. The issues that Versus XIII suffered that put it into development hell seemed to at least partly be problems with nailing down the concept and story. Like supposedly Nomura had to be talked down from turning it into a musical after he saw Les Mis. Stuff that clearly wouldn't happen with a remake since everything about the concept/story/characters/world has already existed for like 18 years. Seems like just the right project for Nomura, really. That would have been amazing

redreader posted:I think it's in the second city: you go into a military cordon area inside the city, then have to clear a large building full of looter types, and the balcony area above overlooking that ground floor, you then go into a back alley in a cutscene. If you stick around inside or outside the building, the enemies just respawn forever. redreader posted:No... wait. I totally got it another place: When you start playing in the hospital at the end, I tried to take out the enemies in the first area one by one. They infinitely respawned. I know this 'cos I killed a TON of guys in the first section and depopulated parts of the hallway, and more people kept coming again and again 'from the back'. All this was on release week on ps3 on survivor mode. Difficulty doesn't change enemy spawns; it only affects loot and damage you take.

Szurumbur posted:I don't quite understand Rebel Galaxy's difficulty curve - I'm now at the "Rescue attempt" story mission and thought to work on my Red Devil reputation, since they have unique ships I'd like to try. However, no matter the ship or equipment any fight mission in which the risk is at least Average I simply can't survive - the most I can manage is Drop or Delivery missions of that difficulty, since I can just grab/drop the cargo and escape. Is there some trick to combat, or do I really need to get even a better ship? Right now I'm flying the Barracuda and even that took a few hours of grinding. 1) no, especially since they don't target torpedoes/rockets on their own 2) later star systems will have the same characters for a higher price; those are obviously better, but I didn't notice any other differences 3) try to draw the escorts out a bit; your merc buddy can really help; use the tactics screen to focus him on fighters. I never had much luck with leech rockets; pulse cannons + lasers worked pretty well for me. edit: focus on aiming your broadsides and let other turrets do their work, fire homing missiles when your getting swarmed and use your rechargeable shield thingy (forgot the proper name) Dr Sun Try fucked around with this message at 10:34 on Mar 17, 2016 |
