Can anybody confirm if this EU link should work for people in Beta? If so I'm not in...

It's just not a real link - there's nothing there at that address. You can't just change US > EU for it to work like that.

 

[Guymelef]

Thanks, there is still hope.

 

[Gradly]

Nope it doesn't work the link is wrong.

Doesn't look like a valid link. The error says it's invalid.

It's just not a real link - there's nothing there at that address. You can't just change US > EU for it to work like that.

Yea that's why I asked if anyone can test it, its still a forum post that may have not been created yet or will have another address different from that US one. Anyway browsing through the forums there is nothing mentioned yet, only the signup for beta page

Thanks, there is still hope.

Yea, as I mentioned before I always get my beta invites/emails in around 9 hours from now

Works for me

 

[PaulLFC]

Looking at my past emails, I got the "You have been chosen for the beta" email for 3.50 at 18:27, so around 10 hours from now. Still plenty of time before they send out emails for 4.00 I'd guess.

 

[mujun]

Can I just hide shit like video and PSNOW? I hate having that crap cluttering up my bar. I just want my installed games on there and the store.

[Guymelef]

Works for me

What do you see? EU Beta forum?

 

[Daouzin]

The only thing I need now is Sony's version of the DS Daily Log. I want to know how many hours I've spent playing NMS.

 

[AnythingBut]

What do you see? EU Beta forum?

I get "node was not found" when i click it.

 

[Berserker976]

So people are saying on reddit if you can see the forums for this link you're in the beta. Sadly it says denied for me anyone else get a result?

Edit: U.S. Link only that I know of.

http://community.us.playstation.com/t5/PlayStation-4-System-Software-4/bd-p/PS4_4_00_beta

Hope this is accurate because it seems like I got in too!

Nice to have the option for those who want it, but folders are a clunky solution to the organization problem IMO. I mean does anyone actually use folders much for applications on their smartphone (or even PC) these days as opposed to search? Smart options for pinning favorites as well as flexible searching, sorting and filtering options in the library all mapped to quick, easy controller actions would be much nicer IMO. A dedicated library button on the controller instead of scrolling to the end of the title list would be great too. I hope at least this means we can dismantle the "built-in" media folder that has every single video app ever in it, even ones I never plan to install.

Super pleased that "purchased" and "installed" are being separated. Hopefully purchases can also be hidden.

Still waiting for external HD support (I don't think it's actually coming, maybe for Neo in future) and that much needed cloud save overhaul (with support for cloud screen captures).

Um yeah, I hate apps on my home screen and put everything in folders. Folders were one of the most requested features, much higher above something like external HDD especially since you can fairly easily upgrade the one in PS4.

This. Im willing to bet you cant even put those things in a folder...

 

[gogosox82]

Finally. Been waiting on the folders since the damn console launched.

 

[Footos22]

Yep

Edit: Nm was clicking wrong link lol

 

[LiquidSolid]

Yep

lol! I was just about to call shenanigans.

I can see it. Really hope this is legit. I haven't been selected before.

Let's hope that we can. But I fear that there are certain apps like PSNOW that we won't be able to hide/put in folders.

 

[travisbickle]

For Europe region its

http://community.eu.playstation.com/

If anyone can test replacing the address (us) with (eu) and see. For me it was access denied

http://community.eu.playstation.com/t5/PlayStation-4-System-Software-4/bd-p/PS4_4_00_beta

Wait, looks like I'm a member on a forum I never knew about!!

TBH, I would prefer tagging instead of folders.

Maybe
*Hopefully
It just isn't open for us yet.

 

[GeNoMe]

Access Denied

I feel your pain! Hopefully it will get unlocked later today though. I've been in every PS4 beta test up until now.

 

[madmackem]

Boooo not in yet then, I've been in everyone so far and signed up day one.

 

[Negotiator]

The codes will be sent out this afternoon, I think.

 

[Tratorn]

Access denied here as well...
I was in other betas but this would be the first time that I really would like to be in. Hopefully they just didn't unlock everyone yet.

 

[Lichter]

What a mess, they really should adopt a "insider program" like MS does.

 

[OmegaX0]

Let's hope that we can. But I fear that there are certain apps like PSNOW that we won't be able to hide/put in folders.

Vita allows everything to be put in folders so hopefully they won't take a step back with the PS4.

You can since last November.

Damn.

"You do not have sufficient privileges for this resource or its parent to perform this action."

That link is for EU beta testers in general so unless you're in the program you won't be able to access that link.

There will be a separate forum for the beta so I wouldn't worry about not being able to access it.

 

[madmackem]

How's it a mess, you sign up you have a chance at getting in?.

PS3 era selection for Beta Trial Member ^.^ I've access to all the beta so i'm in at 100%.

I don't know if this is the same forum page for every Firmware tester btw but i think this will be the official EU page for the firmware test.

I'll be waiting patiently for my invite Sony.

 

[PaulLFC]

There's always been a possibility name changes will never happen man. Didn't you read the bit from Shu that said its a engineering design error and it would require a massive amount of re-engineering to fix.

Surely there's a way around this though - keep the current name as the "account name" then just have a new field for "Display name" which replaces this on all visible parts of PSN (friends list etc) - kind of how Steam community does things.

 

[Drencrom]

Have they sent out any EU invites yet?

It's working for me and I've never been selected for anything on PS4.

 

[Lichter]

How's it a mess, you sign up you have a chance at getting in?.

Because I don't have a clue if I'm in or not (well now I do by checking a private forum...), and also because I want them to open it to everyone who wants to sign up, it's been the third time that I'm not in, kinda frustrating tbh.

I'm the same, I've been a member for many years but I'm not convinced that being able to access the Beta forum means that we'll have access to this Beta. Maybe we will but I 'm not sure the two are necessarily tied in together.

 

[Rellik]

They've not been sent out anywhere yet.

 

[The Elite]

I didn't get in. This cruel world.

Same. We should wait for the key, like everyone in there.
