Sony PSN Network connectivity Issues

Relax guys, their servers are literally getting pounded by hundreds of thousands of people right now. I would expect it to get a lot worse before it gets better since a lot of the people will be getting their PS4 deliveries today.
 
Ugh really annoying trying to download stuff right now. I will get a small burst of speed then it will slow to a crawl again.taking forever to download this killzone patch
 
With the servers down I can't even access BF4 single player, not sure if it's connected or not, but BF4 is unplayable for me right now. It keeps coming up corrupted data and send me to an error report for Sony :(
 
My buddy and I had good luck between 3-6AM CST but it's impossible to do most anything now. He keeps getting the error reporting thing too, mostly when he tries to create an origin account for battlefield.

That's odd. I have one person on my friends list playing BF4 in SP and one playing it in MP. I wonder if it's a regional thing.

I honestly don't see how they could be overwhelmed by this. How many people actually have PS4's and are using them on their network right now? 500,000 maybe?

That's not asking a lot for a network that should be built to support millions of concurrent users. For example, I would think a firmware update for the PS3 would incur far more network traffic for them compared to this launch.
 
The app for What's New won't connect....

I have access to single player again, after I deleted and re installed game from scratch. But there is no point in trying it as there issues with it corrupting all your single player data, have had it happen 2 or 3 times already.

Ugh. That's not cool.
 
Had some issues last night, but I restarted the PS4 after it would just get stuck on the "Please Wait...." after I restarted it, it logged right on in and it has been working since.
 
Glad you midnight launchers are going through the Server Stress Test beta before I get my PS4 via amazon.... Which considering past shipments I'm not getting it till 8 pm.....
 
I'm downloading the 1.50 update now. I have 16 minutes to go. It has taken about 75 minutes or so. Is it better once 1.50 is downloaded?
 
I had a feeling this would be the case. Can someone link the 1.5 update that can be downloaded and installed via USB?

My plan is to keep everything offline, download and update via USB from my PC to PS4, and then establish the network connection last.
 
Been stuck on the "please wait" screen for the past 15-20 minutes. Also, I'm so glad I downloaded the update beforehand. It would have taken me 111 minutes to download it via wifi on the PS4. I was not going to spend two hours downloading an update that took me two minutes to download on Wednesday.
 
PSN is running great for me this morning.....I'm downloading stuff, messaging friends, I'm not getting any errors or maintenance messages.....



And Damn this OS is amazing, so far and smooth,I love it...

That's weird. Console came about 20 minutes ago. Update took 16 minutes. Probably should've loaded it onto a USB but I didn't care enough to get one.

I expected this to be honest. If it's a separate entity altogether, then i imagine they're just now seeing what it's like to have hundreds of thousands of people log on at once, then when they balance that out (hur hur), you have west coast coming in, then afternoon folks who didn't call out of work or school to play...it's gonna be a rough time.

Wish my Knack was delivered this week, but I got the SF Bundle and It's physical copy so I've got that to hold me over.
 
Glad I put it on a USB stick, hopefully it'll be a little better when I get off at 3. I doubt it, but it's nice to want things.
 
Been good over here outside of some initial issues logging into PSN. I'm on now though. I've sent FR, redeemed codes etc. Downloading update now for 2k14

Glad I did the USB install though with PSN having some connectivity issues
 
Anybody that got through, Did you guys stay in the please wait screen or did you keep backing out and reattempt to sign in again and again

I waited. Only time I tried again is when it told me server connectivity error.

Yall just gotta be patient!
 
Anyone play Ghosts split screen online? Does the second player have to sign into their PSN account? Normally, you just press X and you're in but the PS4 wants my buddy to sign in.
 
Anyone that got stuck on "Please wait" gotten past it yet? Stuck for over 30 minutes. Don't know if it's safe to restart the console and try again.
