Unless you are using different numbers, .4 and .6 as upload...? thats ridiculously low,unless you guys mean 6 Mbps and up...if its .6 Mbps,no wonder it doesnt work.

I'm not the host. I'm just saying 8mb down, 400k up is capable to act as client.

I tried this with a mate last night and it wouldn't work - would like to know if my speeds are fast enough. He was the host, I was trying to access.
5.0 down, 1.0 up - should that be enough to connect? If anyone is willing to try later tonight (about 8pm UK time) would really appreciate it - psn name is same as gafname.
Would really like this to work, even thinking about moving provider!

I can't seem to host Sportsfriends. It gives the guest the "blocked in your region" message.
I have the backer version, so it's probably to do with that, as the regular version still shows in the store as available for purchase. I never added it when it was on Plus because I assumed they were the same thing. Livid.

Apparently Shadow of Mordor can't be shareplayed in Europe, much like Lego Marvel. Looks like WB games are restricted in Europe, but not other regions?

I played around with this a little last night on Madden with some of my friends. This feature is amazing. It's literaly brought the idea of sitting down and playing your games with a friend to the modern age.
I'm sat next to my PS4 but will be working from 4pm UK time for a couple hours so more than happy to host a session to see how my internet connection handles it.
I have Mordor, Second Son, Watch Dogs, Destiny, Garden Warfare, FIFA 15, Diablo 3, Worms, all the Plus staff since launch, LEGO Hobbit and I think a couple others.
At some point I'd love to give Alien and Driveclub a go so hit me up on PSN if you wish - dartfordgooner.
Cheers!

Qouted for new page.

Just played my buddy in Madden 15 online while my other friend (who doesnt own Madden) remote in and took over during offensive drives. Said it was smooth as silk.

You can delete the game from your library. Problem solved!
Oh, I did, I just mean, it could be a problem for people with download limits. And not everyone browses forums, or even this thread.

Happy for anyone to try any of my games for a while.

I would love to try this but there aren't really any games I wanna try. I wonder if using shareplay would be better sometimes than actually playing through the games netcode especially for fighters. That would be some crazy shit.

They exist, but they are certainly not common use enough to warrant locking something behind it. In the UK, I have never actually seen an ID card, as people use a full driving license or passport as a recognised form of ID. I have never been asked or had it suggested that I need to show or have one my entire life.
So not really.
I tried to play splitscreen minecraft with my buddy in WV from GA last night and it wouldn't work. Kept coming up saying that the screen cannot be shared because of spoilers or something like that (not exactly what it said, but that was how I interpreted it.) Has anyone heard any word of minecraft having troubles with shareplay or has anyone gotten it to work?
Ok. I agree, and hopefully Sony will sort it out with the next update.

Remote play and Share play are things that were considered when the PS4 was in the creation stages right? Or is it fully software based? Is Xbox One capable of doing this?

Thanks. I've sent you a friend request.

It's hardware-based on both consoles. Radeon GPUs have a dedicated H.264 encoder/decoder. So yeah, Xbone is perfectly capable as well.

The PS4 has a dedicated additional hardware chip I had thought? Xbone I thought did the twitch streaming through software?

You're talking about the Southbridge, which is irrelevant in this case.
Both consoles have dedicated circuitry (inside the APU) to encode/decode videos.

My buddy loved it, in fact he beat me 3-2 in OT

I played someone in here and lost 4-2
There was quite a bit of lag but it was definitely playable though. We were across the country which doesn't help.The responsiveness was much better against my friend who lives in the same city, I share played on his system and won 4-1 and 3-2 in OT. Was almost like playing locally - very impressive

What were the upload speeds? I have 110mb down and 11mb up.
Tried it with a friend who lives about a little under 10 minutes drive away from me, was sort of laggy, but not to the point where a game is unplayable, but definately out of my comfort zone when it comes to responsiveness. I couldn't play the evil within properly due to the lag screwing with my aim precision, but shadow of mordor played just fine. Felt like it was about between 0.5 to 1 second of lag. Wish they could come up with a way for me to remotely play some couch co-op games over shareplay, could breathe new life into spelunky for me by playing this way.

Not sure about the first person I played with, but for the person in the same city he has 50 down and 10 up.
I have 25 down and 3 up, and he was able to connect to my system and play Knack with me without issues.

You can play co-op Spelunky with share play, just give the person in your party the second controller instead of your own.
I think performance is heavily dependent on both host and client internet connections. Especially the Host's upload speeds and ping.

Thanks for the session! I'm having so much fun, that delay is killing me! Haha
Fuck lava!
Edit: Can't praise enough how good the game look, it look like 720p game running native on my PS4, you must have killer internet speed!

Not a problem, sorry for that disconnect. Not sure what happened at that point as I didn't see myself drop off.
Just finished my session with AbandonedTrolley. He's in the UK and I'm in New York and everything worked brilliantly. I played 4 races of DriveClub and there was no input lag whatsoever. The video quality was less than 720p, but the framerate was rock solid. I've played sessions of NBA 2K, Gears of War and Halo 4 that ran like complete garbage, but Share Play seems like the real deal.
Thanks AT!

Can anyone host any game for me for a couple of minutes?
I've just tried hosting for my friend and it worked great, but I coudn't play as a guest.
I really want to test this part as well.

I can host a Driveclub session if you want.
Thanks for that race, didn't think it played too badly and it looked pretty nice.
As for the SharePlay tech, I'm very impressed and think it'll be genuinely useful going forward. Great way of replacing demos.
