Took money out of my own pocket and customized another DS4 from Battle Beaver instead. Ended up to be cheaper, better build quality and it still works absolutely fine with zero issues until today, 7 months later.

CinchGaming and SHARQ are good alternatives too btw.

SCUF is great as long as you are willing to roll the dice, hope you get a good piece and really, really hope it stays alive for longer than a year.

Anyone using their PS4/PS4 pro on wifi? I keep get disconnected and the download speed is slow. Any sifu got way to fix this (without using LAN)?

PS: when I test my connection is shows I am on 10mbps

try changing your DNS.
Google DNS works fine.
the PSN network test is shit, don't believe what you see.
I've gotten 2Mbps down on the test, yet download at full 50Mbps (give or take, obviously)

hell, even got 100Mbps sometime last week for no reason laugh.gif

Just finally picked up my ps4 pro at sony aman central aloq staq.

Finally after almost 3 weeks of waiting. Lucky i put rm200 as deposit first. Cost rm1,999 in total but i dont mind paying extra for as long as i can ber gong xi fa cai playing ps4 pro hehehe.

The sony guy said many wanted to buy my unit but i already secured it with deposit. So tough luck to others. He only brought in 1 ps4 pro unit from Sony HQ just for me though.

you bought yours from a sony store yet they hiked up the price? wtf rclxub.gif
or is this one of those third party stores? (Sony Center)

QUOTE(Zaryl @ Jan 21 2017, 08:24 PM)
But he brought in many units of ps4 slim 500gb and 1tb, including the white glacier one.

Bought battlefield 1. Was hoping to buy MGS5 but oh well. I have been playing BF3 on my ps3 for almost 6 months. Now will play yet another battlefield game LOL! biggrin.gif

buy Titanfall 2.
I regret buying BF1 since Titanfall 2 came out laugh.gif

So guys just a quick question: how much does the initial ps4 update will cost? 1gb or 10gb? I am on digi 4g LTE so i might afraid not enough data.

I don't recall having to update anything when i got my ps4pro hmm.gif

anyone experience slow wifi speed on ps4 pro? i'm using time broadband but only getting 20mbps on ps4 pro

if this is taken from the test, try downloading something.
If you're not satisfied with the speed, try changing the DNS.

hi guys...im planning to get a ps4 slim in the coming days. while i login on psn, i saw discounted titles as low as usd4.99 (as i hv sign-up with a US address long long time ago) for some interesting titles but they cost about rm1xx for malaysia. if i buy the local ps4, would i be able to download and play the purchased titles after i using a local address bcos i would like to subscribe with local playstation plus. thanks for any input

ok...i found it, it's not that simple and straight forward. can forget about it for the time being  tongue.gif

you can have multiple accounts on your PS4.
I myself am using a USA PSN as my main and MY account for secondary.
You can buy whatever games you want via USA PSN, but just to be safe, don't buy any DLC from that region as some may not work on your R3 account.
The games themselves should work just fine, however.

hi guys, i just bought ps4
then try play some games (cd games) ,
my question is. the game (destiny) required 33 gb update. tom clancy's division required 13 gb update.
and cant play without updating game first.
is it normal or no?

online ONLY games like the ones you've listed require that you update them to their latest client version before you can access their servers.

offline games work fine without updates, but you may encounter bugs or glitches.

as mentioned in my previous reply, the games you mentioned are online ONLY, so they do not work offline.

Well, MS will be launching their Xbox Pass, a monthly game subscription for USD10 monthly with a library of 100+ games  drool.gif

Pretty sure Sony will follow suit soon with similar service brows.gif

wont be surprised if sony insists ps now is still the better option - no need to download, straight on and play on any supported device.

QUOTE(Zaryl @ Mar 1 2017, 10:53 AM)
Any PS4 Pro users here experience system crash while playing any game?

it happened to me last night while i was playing Battlefield 1. The game froze and my PS4 pro rebooted but then just black screen. I had to press the power button on the console to power it on. Came out the screen it says rechecking HDD integrity or something.

Luckily my save files are all intact. Then i proceeded to play a good 2 hours of BF1 but no crash after that.

Very weird.  hmm.gif
*
yeah, crashed quite often. even getting random hdd errors.
sometimes doesn't even go to sleep properly - everything shuts off, but the light of the console remains on and i can't restart the device unless i hard reboot sleep.gif

you can easily change the hard disk for any PS4, so if there's ever a reason for getting the PS4Pro, this should not be it.

In addition to what others above have said, most games patched with PS4 support will (most probably) run with a much better/stable framerate or slightly sharper image..or both (this depends on the developer/publisher)

Why disable auto system update? I think doing so brings more problem and inconvenience.
Since system update is pretty fast and small file size, I think you should just enable the auto update function for hassle free gaming. innocent.gif
*
auto updates barely work on my PS4s (yes, that's plural)

From my launch PS4 to my Batman PS4 and now PS4Pro...sometimes auto updates work, other times(make that MOST of the time) they only start the minute I switch on the console (I always set the console to rest mode, never shut down)

Since you mentioned this I suggest Sony to rename the function to "semi-auto update"........... sweat.gif
I though this is how it work? The console will download the update, and wait for us to start up and ask us whether we want to restart to finish the update or delay the update..... so semi-auto update  sweat.gif
*
that's my point. it doesn't initiate the download until I switch on the PS4 proper.

Auto updates are triggered only once per day and that's 5am our time. The problem? Most games have their updates out Before or AFTER that time, so our PS4 doesn't get the cue for the auto update to happen. It's a silly flaw, but it's one way for Sony not to have 50 million machines pinging their servers every minute.

It's effin' infuriating I know.
*
how nice of them to only have it active during a certain hour yet don't inform...unlike the ps3 era when we can manually set doh.gif

I swear, this ps4 ps+ is not that much better than ps3's free online.

anyway, with regard to the external hard disk, i find my ps4pro now triple beeps way more often when i set it to rest mode.
if i leave it to rest mode by itself automatically by setting the power saving option, this doesn't seem to happen at all. hmm.gif

If I'm not mistaken, Assassin's Creed Black Flag is one game that locks DLC to the account, R3 DLC, downloaded and installed, but can't use R1 account to play the DLC.

QUOTE(BobThe Builder @ Mar 14 2017, 05:22 PM)
I guess some games do lock DLC to the account.
Sorry I don't have that game. Otherwise I could tell you if it's playable on R3.
Just to share, I don't buy AAA games on R3 PSN anymore. Had a bad experience with Fallout 4.

ubisoft has this fuck up tendency to lock DLC to accounts.

Rainbow 6 Siege
For Honor

both suffer from this bullshit as well.

using the firecuda 2tb at the moment; 7mm thickness. fits nicely in the PS4pro

previously used another seagate for my normal ps4, but that was 9.5mm thickness.(2tb as well)
