PS Vita fw 2.00 now live
- Thread starter kassatsu
- Start date
I don't care about folders.. But I would take anything that lets me get rid of the Welcome and other useless bubbles. Also, AA for the main menu would be welcomed.

mobile gaf looks better with this update. nice. still bummed yt links dont open in the app. one day. one day
I had to on my PC, so i'd assume it's the same for Macs.
It needs to have wireless features in your CMA and if it doesn't, download the new version.
I don't think that'd really be a solution, though. The problem isn't the resolution that PSP games are being displayed at, because the Vita renders one PSP pixel with four Vita pixels (so you're getting an exact reproduction). The problem is more that showing PSP games on a physically larger screen just makes the roughness that was already there more prominent.
If the Vita's screen was the same physical size as the PSP's screen, they should display the exact same image quality-wise.

Simply amazed the Sony coders pulled out such improvements, it's almost like a new device.
Good job

This has been the most awesome FW update eger.
So Gaf, now what clock do they need to fix in Vita?
-Lossless PNG for screenshots.
-Folders for games / apps.
-HTML5 support activated in the browser (when not using games maybe).
-Flash support in the browser (when not using games maybe).
-Open in the youtube app the youtube links from the browser.
-Images in email app.
-PSP original resolution option without zooming in its emulator.
-PSM trophies and leaderboards if aren't already included in PSM runtime v1.0
Would you add something to the list?

Good on Sony for breathing some life into the system.

Holy shit, you can remap sholder buttons to the right stick (controller must be set to digital for it to work)! Vagrant Story just became even more awesome.
Truth be told, I rather be surprised then by hyped for something that might set me up for disappointment.
Folders would be nice though.

Well, the Vita screen isn't even that much bigger. It's 5 inches diagonally, compared to 4.3 inches for the PSP. If they were to replicate the PSP screen size that would introduce a bunch of scaling artifacts. Showing that, or displaying it as a 2.5 inch quarter image are both worse than what it does now.
Same...was hoping for some sort of easy stream through this...no luck. I love how you can connect from outside the CMA app though.

Really liking 2.00, activities under friends is a really smart idea.
Increase the distance you hold the Vita until the screen is the same size as PSP on your usual play distance.TheSeks said:
To be fair - I don't really think Vita screen is bigger enough to go from "good" to "terrible" compared to standard PSP.Brad Grenz said:
I suspect for some it might just be the difference of LCD on PSP having pretty obvious screen-door which alters pixel look compared to higher-res OLED (the squares are more filled out - and thus, more obvious).
Updated! PS+ itself isn't up yet, right?
Whoa.
Browser update:
Old:
New:
It is now 100/100 on acid3 test. Was 99/100 before
Whoa.
Wow, they even added Turkish keyboard support!
I am loving this new update. Everything runs snappy and smooth.

i might pick a vita up this black friday.....is there any advantage of the 3G model over the wifi version? If you have a 4G phone, can't you just tether and it will be much better than a 3G connection? or does the 3G version have some kind of magic thing that makes it better?

New Wifi setting. "Disconnect Wi-Fi Connection Automatically"
Basically after a long period of time, it'll turn off to save power.

Do you have the Content Assistant set up to look at the right folder on your computer?
Doesn't it disconnect all the time?
Now, as there's a new content manager, I'm guessing the ability to copy individual games from Vita to PC and back is new? I just copied Black Ops in preparation for PS+ as it uses nearly 3GB.
Anyway, I like the update so far, the browser was much snappier browsing GAF and we finally get an e-mail app too, yey!

Yes i double checked and its the right folder.
I tether, but if you want to use GPS functions you'll want the 3G model. Not that there's a whole lot you can do with GPS, since if you have a 4G phone you're probably better off using that for navigation. Near works really well without GPS, so it's a matter of how worried you are someone's going to make a cool game you want to play that absolutely has to have GPS (chances are super-slim, honestly, due to most Vitas not having it).

I was most excited about using the email app but don't know how to use it. Trying to add a hotmail account but then it says you can't send or receive messages with that account. I'm not sure if I'm writing all the right information and or what's expected of me. Why do you have to have a username and password for sent and received messages? Can they both be the same username and account? And what is this about host name with sent and received messages?
The improved near and browser look good so far, though the vita crashed on me again when using near.

Very beautiful day, will update my Vita right now!
Weather and Traffic for the Maps app is really great. Would be nice if the temperature was displayed in the Live Area so you don't have to load up your map though.
Ooo that looks nice. Cool to see they added traffic too.
All in all it leoks like a great update, possibly one of the best in Playstation FW update history?
All my saves are now in the cloud.
It would be nice if someone with some time could transfer a large (like 2GB) Game and Video file over both WiFi N and over a wired connection to compare speeds. I'd do it but I'm on 12 hours days until Friday.

So does this mean i can back up individual games to my pc rather than the whole memory card?
This would be helpful while I'm still stuck with a 4Gb card.

Eh, you did have that option before, just copy the game you want.
Can you sync PSP saved data to PS+ online storage? I can't seem to be able to.
8 minutes download, 2 install, total 10.

thanks.. I have a 20/1 connection.. and my internet has sucked lately. Tried a 30mb update for the Viaplay app in Denmark yesterday.. took freaking 14 minutes for 30mb. And the 12mb silverlight update on my PC took 8 minutes...lol

Surely they need sign in to be a blocking operation. At least to be retroactively compatible with older games.
Possibly, but I don't need that please wait in my face when I boot up LBP for example. Sure it want's to connect but it shouldn't need to stop me getting on with my game.
Just used Near for the first time since the update, much nicer, it tells you all the locations that it shared when it did the upload and is much more streamlined overall.
Hopefully it'll get a bit more use from folks.
