For about 24 hours, but at least Xbox Live wasn't down.

Oh, well.
PSN isn't down for me.
I'm in party chat and playing Destiny.
I just can't send friend invites and can't join fireteams or invite people to my fireteam.

Edit: Down for me now, too.

 

[KaiserBecks]

Quick! Someone add more stability!

 

[Chill Penguin]

Weren't friendlists down in XBL recently?

I had almost zero issues with XBL over an entire 7 years of having a 360.

[GlamFM]

It's down in Germany. Can't play destiny.

 

[NullPointer]

Yup, it's unacceptable.

Definitely unacceptable. They've got more to prove than ever with the move to the paywall, and they're failing.

Maybe they are prepping for 2.0?

If that was the case they should have put the message out beforehand.

THose are the twitter handles of some Sony execs. Seriously BLAST them on twitter. While I understand why we make threads on the issue it's not going to change until you let them know directly.

Could someone put those names in the OP. Seriously something needs to be said and done. PSN is literally the only thing holding Sony back. They are weakest in this area.

PSN going down for a few hours a few days a week over the last 2 weeks is unacceptable.

Don't "Blast" them. First of all, I'm sure those guys have nothing to do with PSN since they work first/third party relations. Second, tell them about your disappointment in an acceptable manner, attacking them won't make it better.

PSN fucking blows. News at 11.

I only own a PS4. Have mercy

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Well that's good to know.

 

[ldcommando]

needs more stability

 

[BMO = GOAT]

How do you know this ?

Just finding out PSN is down is hard enough.

You would think they would send a message to your console or something.

[Air Zombie Meat]

If I only had a PS4 I'd be pissed.

 

[Qassim]

It feels like there has been problems like this on PSN pretty much since the PSN 'hack'. I'm including all the scheduled maintenances in that.

It's really bad.

 

[Ledhead]

This is disappointing. One would hope they would take plus revenue and put it towards improving their online infrastructure, but so far, it seems like that hasn't been the case. The network seems to be down at least once every couple of weeks :/

Sony shouldn't be content to rest on their laurels. They have to realize that this kind of shit will alienate their user base

Ramp it up, #PaystationNotWork

 

[mnannola]

Sony is making it real hard for me to convince myself I need a PS4 in addition to my PC. I feel spoiled on PC getting to play online for free.

Dat Bloodborne tho.

 

[Zen Mu]

Everything but the friend's list is working for me. Haven't tried Destiny yet.

 

[tirminyl]

I honestly don't get it. Everytime I get on to play DriveClub, Destiny, or Diablo (ha triple D), PSN is up and active and I'm flying messages back and forth with friends. I'm just not seeing all these issues people are experiencing. Not saying that they aren't having issues, just that it is weird.

 

[Boke1879]

I've already tweeted Adam and Shu. They won't respond to me, but they will if more people make an effort

Exactly. More people need to tweet these guys telling them how upset they are with the service as it has been the last few weeks.

Also right on to the people no renewing. That's the best way to get the message across

 

[OléGunner]

Just posted in the other thread. PSN is down for me in the UK as well. Over the last 3 weeks it's become a true horror show, can't see friends lists, messages take forever etc.

It was never this crazy during PS3 days. Sony can't handle the load after Destiny it seems

Edit: tried destiny over the last two hours and can't get in

I cant see friends list, I cant create a party...

This is almost weekly occurrence...Sony need to sort this out.

Edit: I am UK BT optical fibre broadband, connects to PSN in test, but no friends list, parties or multiplayer possible

Data? The only time I could not get on the PSN since the PS4 launch was the DDoS attacks, for one day.

Good thing Bloodborne doesn't require an online connection

 

[1.21Gigawatts]

Well that's good to know.

Gotta change that Its down for me now, too.
Still in party chat but not in Destiny anymore.

 

[Mass Effect]

Damn, at this point PSN goes down more often than Steam, and Steam goes down pretty often.

 

[Red Chocobo]

PSN has the 'bola.

 

[bbdude]

On the bright side, at least you don't have ebola.

 

[Rogue_Ledr]

With any luck it will be back up by the time I get home.

 

[BMO = GOAT]

PSN has the 'bola.

On the bright side, at least you don't have ebola.

Hmm rare occurrence or alt? >.>

 

[Ashler]

The PS4 is the real 'always on' console. If you turn it off, chances are you won't be able to log back on.

Bummer. This is when it's a problem. Some people with multiple consoles probably can't even log in to play their games when this happens.

Yes, I like this one.

 

[Boke1879]

I should have used a different word but people should definitely voice their frustrations.

As much as they may not have anything to do with PSN directly. These people are the face of the company. They have to be able to talk to someone close to the issue.

 

[Footos22]

For about 24 hours, but at least Xbox Live wasn't down.

I'm playing destiny. All I can't see is my friends list

 

[Compsiox]

If I didn't have my PC or Xbox One I would be pretty pissed right now.

 

[kuppy]

Yeah this is just bad.
Wanted to do the Destiny daily mission, couldn't connect and checked in every couple of minutes, dispiriting.

 

[moltonasty]

This is pretty shameful for a paid service. Steam and even the Nintendo Network (lmao) don't go down as frequently as PSN, and they are both free.

 

[Neuro]

This is why I'm letting my PS+ sub expire.

Also why I've been favoring PC versions over PS4 versions.

Sony is letting us down big time with PSN.

Thank-god I took a 3 month sub, wanted Destiny on XBone but could not find a copy of the game (this region is Sony fanboy dominated) anyway after 3 months its going to be Xbox Live for me...

 

[Dart]

If I only had a PS4 I'd be pissed.

You're already pissed & you know it.

 

[qa_engineer]

Mickey Mouse operation, bro.

 

[jimi_dini]

That's pretty bad for a paid service.

I guess it's because people are not paying enough yet.

 

[dugdug]

So, what exactly do they do during these maintenance periods?

Whatever it is, its not helping.

 

[brianmcdoogle]

Does this affect Trophies earned because I feel like I should have gotten a couple since it has been down.

 

[PTG]

On the bright side, at least you don't have ebola.

*Avatar quote*

 

[bede-x]

They should probably make multiplayer free again.

Yep, it's about that time. The PS+ games are great, especially if you own more than one PS platform, but it's ridiculous at this point if you're actually paying to play online. It would be bad if it was a free service, as
something you pay for it's unacceptable.

Either make it free or give us some compensation.

 

[Insane Metal]

Again. What a piece of shit. That's the reason I'm not renewing my PS+ sub.

Just a reminder that PSN is free.

PSN is not PS+

PS+ is not PSN.

7 years uh? guess you missed December 2012, December 2007 into January 2008 then.
