Sure. But I still wonder why they need to be so large when they are allegedly such minor fixes.

I'm not saying there's a conspiracy here. I'm talking about the actual technical details of the update. Like, what they are modifying, how it's compressed, etc.

I'd also love to read or watch a deep dive on what these stability/performance updates entail. I wish Digital Foundry had a side channel that was all just deep dives and in depth super low level analyses and explanations for those of us who want to really nerd out.

Some Chinese company will start to sell a pcb that you can solder inside the PS4 that enable game sharing between all the people who install this part and share the same account,that's mean one person buy the game and all the PS4s will get the game too,it's plain piracy.
Oh I didn't know it requires soldering a pcb. Thanks for the info.

Hoping it fixes a weird issue that the last patch did with my monitor, I think. It only wakes about a third of the time. Otherwise, I need to unplug and plug in the HDMI cord to fix it.

I didn't even install the last one, it just sits there among the downloaded stuff awaiting my confirmation. It was probably a minor one, because they're always forced.

Well, whatever that update did, My pro doesn't like it. First restart and it told me to insert a USB key with firmware on it - next it loaded but hung after loading the desktop + Theme, and now it's just hung on the blue screen before the theme loads...

Not happy with this!

i'm getting tired of these. why can't they lump all these stability/performance updates together and put them out once a month or something? i hate having to update my PS4 so often. can i at least postpone it or is it required to access online?

If this is how you keep your desktop/laptop up to date app wise and OS wise, legions of hackers love you ;).

3 or 4 Quality updates in a row, I think its safe to say the Stability updates are over. Gifs need to be retired.


O/T: THey really need to release a fix for the VR breakout box not going to sleep with the PS4 in standby mode. ANyone has a fix for it. I just keep it disconnecting until Im ready to play it for now

All of these performance updates and scrolling around the UI is still janky on all consoles, that can run some games at 60fps. It's a bit of irony. And probably just lack of effort in that department to make the UI stick to 60.

Balls. Hope they don't mess up regular game sharing for the rest of us.
