Support NeoGAF

[Ramza]

EDIT: Removed because it's apparently under NDA. I was just given the screencap, but I don't want to get anyone in trouble.

 

[Hidden One]

Baby steps.

 

[Killthee]

Thank's MS.

 

[Remark]

I see you Sony (つ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)つ

 

[dugdug]

Aw man, that screengrab stops at the worst moment.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

now someone tell them that their friends notifications and DLNA support is broken on the PS4.

 

[Ramza]

Aw man, that screengrab stops at the worst moment.

I know, right? It's what he sent me though. Might be an NDA or something

 

[darkside31337]

I was wondering how long it would take for this announcement to leak. Shrug.

 

[Syriel]

It works for Microsoft, why not for Sony?

Now you can preview all that stability, one month early!

 

[Lichter]

Getting some stability updates early.

Sounds great.

 

[BeEatNU]

lol damn people can't keep secrets for shit.

 

[strafer]

but how do you beta test stability updates? ;P

 

[Cbajd5]

don't they already do that with their normal firmware releases

ba dum tshh

 

[Shane86]

Someone needs to test the stability

LMAO

 

[Ramza]

Don't shoot the messenger. He never told me to keep it secret!

 

[BronsonLee]

Wow, that lasted a whopping 0 seconds of privacy.

Surprised it cut out the features though, that's a good thing for whoever leaked this.

 

[Mikey Jr.]

Yep, stolen straight from Xbone.

And I have absolutely no fucking problems with this. MS is doing good with that program.

 

[SerTapTap]

I've been meaning to send in a PS MVP application for a while...

Umh, I don't know if this is a good thing, actually. Sony is famous to release faulty firmware, so hell, I'm afraid to install an official release, no way I'll beta-test a firmware.

On the other hand, more beta testers means less issues in full releases. Win-win

 

[Ephemeris]

lol damn people can't keep secrets for shit.

haha, right?

 

[Remark]

Why only for MVP's though. I think they should make it "public" invite some people who invite more people in etc.

 

[Ashkeloth]

Interesting idea, but I wouldn't participate personally.

At least a couple of updates that I remember Sony releasing have broken or temporarily disabled systems and they made it through testing.

 

[Noobcraft]

...
Here are the main features:

Stability.

Spoiler

Good on Sony for trying this out though. It's working well for Microsoft.

 

[R3TRO]

Here are the main features:

Stability.

lol

 

[LycanXIII]

He cut it off before the 2.5 change log?

 

[Hidden One]

Wow, that lasted a whopping 0 seconds of privacy.

Ha

 

[Ocelott]

SMH

 

[Crossing Eden]

Getting some stability updates early.

Sounds great.

I most certainly can't wait to test out some stability.

But seriously, hopefully this means that meaningful updates will come much much faster.

 

[Guymelef]

Seems like the next firmware will be a good update.
2.04->2.50

 

[BronsonLee]

Why only for MVP's though. I think they make it "public" invite some people who invite more people in etc.

Who knows? Might be how they're doing the program now, direction wise. Note: I am an MVP, but I don't know diddly.

Don't shoot the messenger. He never told me to keep it secret!

If Sony finds out who it is, you just fucked him over in the worst way.

 

[Ibuki]

I got this e-mail this morning.

Not supposed to post anything apparently.

 

[Ascenion]

Hoping it is like Microsoft's program where people already in can invite friends. They'll need all the people they can to make sure it's stable.....*wink* *wink*

 

[TimeEffect]

Not just stability, obviously, since there is a beta test for it.

Not sure if you should share this though.

 

[HORRORSHØW]

sony too™

 

[Mr. Giggles]

It works for Microsoft, why not for Sony?

Now you can preview all that stability, one month early!

:lol.

Good one, almost spat my pepsi

 

[RoboPlato]

Leak the email but leave out the features? C'mon, give us the goods.

 

[Heigic]

but beta tested stability wont be very stable

 

[Guymelef]

I got this e-mail this morning.

They are also saying any broken hardware repairs might be put on hold until this firmware is officially released...

And what are the 2.50 features?

 

[onQ123]

So we can expect some leaked info about FW update 2.5 by the end of the week huh?

 

[BronsonLee]

These stability jokes are going to be absolutely hilarious in hindsight if there are significant features in this thing

 

[SSReborn]

Man I'm dying to know now.

 

[Hidden One]

2.50 better be fuckin huge.

 

[Elios83]

But Sony has already beta tested all their major firmware releases so far It's nothing new


No seriously this at least will give people more infos on what's coming next so it's a good thing.

 

[BronsonLee]

2.50 better be fuckin huge.

It's a pretty big number jump, ya? I'd expect something noteworthy at the very least

 

[Majine]

Will be hard to beta test minor stability updates and get useful feedback.

 

[Alx]

These stability jokes are going to be absolutely hilarious in hindsight if there are significant features in this thing

Didn't they already say it was a major update ? I don't think it's an "if".

 

[SolsticeZero]

Wow, this stayed secret for all of eight seconds. Great job OP

 

[Ibuki]

It doesn't say that the e-mail is under NDA (unless I am blind) but it only shows a couple features. The rest are locked behind a private beta tester forum that explicitly says it cannot be shared.

 

[msdstc]

Holy shit guys the NDA is literally in the email, is it really that hard?!

 

[Paxem]

2.5 sounds more like one with big features. Why did he cut it before the log
