Support NeoGAF

[Karspankey]

The form is fixed!

You no longer need to lie about subscribing to PlayStation Now.

Word? Going to put in another one just to be sure now. I've gotten into every single beta so far and was going to be bummed if it actually required PS Now.

Edit: It doesn't let you submit again. Hopefully they are pulling from the same database as the PS Now one.

 

[DieH@rd]

Firmware 5.0

- Knack built directly into the firmware

Actually, burning in Dreams directly into the OS would not be such a bad idea. Each game hub [pressing down on any game icon in the main app row] could get access to specific set of Dreams levels, enabling community to create wild things.

 

[RootCause]

Lol none of these are happening except for the last one

Right, they're doing a beta for stability. 🤔
This update will add something meaningful.

Doesn't mean we aren't getting some added stability!

 

[Oneself]

Come on Sony, system enabled downsampling on PS4 Pro or bust.

the dream

 

[tmdorsey]

4K/HDR support for streaming apps please.

 

[Piccoro]

Here's hoping that Taker34's dream becomes a reality...

Believe.

 

[Primethius]

Firmware 5.0

Downsampling Systemwide
Boosted Boost Mode, vanilla software has full access to PRO hardware.
16xAF and 4xMSAA/TAA on all non-patched PS4 titles on PRO
PS1/PS2 emulator released, 4k 60fps uprendering
UI Overhaul

At least one of these has a chance of happening. Maybe. Probably not.

 

[FullMetaltech]

Signed up with the fixed form. I wonder if the other registrations will still get mixed in after the change?

 

[RootCause]

What would you choose if you could only pick one?
I would go for the ps1/2 bc.

 

[Menchi]

- PS1 and PS2 BC
- PSN name change
- System wide Pro downsampling for 1080p TVs
- 2-step authentication without SMS
- Plus no longer required for online play
- All the stability and quality

believe!

This list. Please especially the bolded. Stop with the shitty half measure of "selected BC for a price"

 

[Primethius]

That's a difficult choice. It would have to be PS1/2 BC or system wide downsampling. I lean towards the latter because I own a Pro and a 1080p TV, so getting screwed out of a better image due to no downsampling sucks.

 

[Wind's Howling]

The one thing I am speculating is a complete overhaul of the store. God, I hope so. The layout of the store is so abysmal, especially the searching for items.

Not to forget that gameplay trailers on the store are of a terrible low quality.

 

[Griss]

After years of raging for folders it's nice to no longer care about firmware updates...

Thing I'm hoping for is a really good stat tracker for games and trophies. We know they can track quite a bit as the often send you end of year stats in a email.
Can't really think of anything else that I really want, better search functions for the store would be nice I guess.

... but this would be nice.

I hear ya. It's an easy choice for me at the moment, since I've got no pro right now. Though adding system wide downsampling would move up my plans to get a pro.

This is an extremely good way to set yourself up for disappointment later on.

 

[deletethis123]

It would be amazing if we could finally get PSN name change. I don't mind if games have to support it via an update, just add it. PSN is the only service which has my old name. I've been able to change it everywhere else: Nintendo, Battle.net, Steam, Origin, GOG, Xbox Live. FFS Sony.

 

[RoboPlato]

Registered. Got in the last two, hopefully I can try this one as well.

 

[jroc74]

I was not even going to put anything UI in that list, I too think it's fine and awesome as it is, but overhaul was definitely overstating it..I was thinking more consistency in their UI however, like making all their blue icons on the XMB a similar color and some other minor tweaks for uniformity...

I agree.

Overhaul might be too strong a word. Tweaks here n there would be nice.

 

[Santiako]

I just want the video apps to be like a month ago. The new interface is annoying as hell.

 

[TalonJH]

Signed up on both my NA and EU account.

 

[Somnia]

I hope we hear about system wide downsampling on pro soon, if not I'll most likely end up with an x1x for most 3rd party games.

aw poopy, registration already complete ... i hope they at least honor my eagerness for the beta enough to lie and send me a key

 

[TimeEffect]

-PSN Name change

-Activity Log (retroactively updated since they seem to have some kind of info on your hours played)

-ShareWorld -- A Youtube like hub to upload and vote on clips and pics of community content across categories/games. Eventually allowing contests like Photo contests by publishers

-Gifting

-Folder designs/layout changes, UI resizing options, transparency options, etc

-In-Game pop up UI streamlined to allow in-app messaging, cleaner labels (Icons over giant text like in Xbox), etc.

-Friend groups, notifications for groups, etc.

 

[Helios13]

I registered, but I don't know if it was a glitch that I only had the "Yes, I subscribe to Playstation now" option for question 2.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Haha, all you liars that clicked you had PSNow have been exposed and won't be invited back for future betas. ;p

Spoiler

could you imagine if that was actually a thing?

 

[RyanHardy101]

PS3 BC please and that includes PS1 and PS2 classics.

That would make me cry.

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

- the ability to delete trophy details for games where you haven't yet unlocked a trophy.
- the abilty to delete apps the user has no intention of using (I don't care if you can put them in a folder, if I'm never going to use the playroom for example, I should be able to delete it)
- delete games but keep patch data

 

[Pillville]

- the ability to delete trophy details for games where you haven't yet unlocked a trophy.

This is already there, but too many games give you early trophies for this to matter much.

You can delete trophy entries for games that have no trophies unlocked. They added it about a year ago.

True. :/

 

[Dynomutt]

They need to just hire this guy use that Material Design.

Ah, my bad yes it is.

 

[riverfr0zen]

I would go for the ps1/2 bc.

It's scandalous, but I would actually settle for ps1/2 titles on PS Now. Hoping this PS Now survey question is a harbinger of something along those lines.

 

[-griffy-]

4K/HDR support for streaming apps please.

YouTube and Netflix already support 4K, but not HDR. That's not gonna be a firmware update, just individual app updates for Netflix and Amazon.

 

[Santiako]

I registered, but I don't know if it was a glitch that I only had the "Yes, I subscribe to Playstation now" option for question 2.

I didn't get any questions, it just asked for my psn id. Are the questions only for NA accounts?

 

[Shane89]

5.0 is a great number.
it's better for it to have massive changes.

 

[RedAssedApe]

I wish they would revert the what's new feed to how it is before and still is on the tablet version of ps app. It's literally like one huge tile filling up the screen. Not to mention when they drop ads in there. Way too much scrolling. Severely limits use ability imo.

Wonder if they changed it to this to keep load down. Whats new feed used to be the first thing to go down when Psn was having issues.

Would love all the pro-centric features people want but I really don't see that happening considering how little Sony is marketing the pro. :/

Also for gods sake get your ui elements for Your internal apps unified.

 

[Cthulhu_Steev]

I just said yes, screw it.

I 'accidentally' clicked yes thinking it said 'Playstation Plus', they sound very similar.

 

[FullMetaltech]

They need to just hire this guy use that Material Design.

I wouldn't mind a UI style like that.

 

[RedAssedApe]

I just want the video apps to be like a month ago. The new interface is annoying as hell.

Was this something only rolled out to certain people? My video apps are exactly the same still...

 

[Z_Y]

I just want to be able to hide betas and demos from my purchased tab. Everything else would be gravy.

 

[kc44135]

System wide downsampling here we go.

Please god. Add this already, Sony!

 

[Tyaren]

System wide downsampling here we go.

 

[The Mad Draklor]

My wishlist from most wanted to least:

1. System wide downsampling
2. Boost mode uses all of the Pro's power
3. PS1/PS2 emulation
4. PSN ID change

 

[LordOfChaos]

If the UI on a game console could just run at a steady framerate, that'd be great...

 

[kc44135]

My wishlist from most wanted to least:

These are all my hopes and dreams condensed into a single post. Sony, pls.

 

[Santiako]

I don't know. It changed here in Europe (Spanish account) about a month ago, maybe a little more.

 

[RSchmitz]

Mine too. I wish it changed because I read it can now be moved into a folder.

 

[RedAssedApe]

i can only find reference to that update in the EU blog so it seems region specific. i'm in the US and that change never happened on my ps4
