Guys why is my PS4 wifi connection so slow? Sat here on my phone next to the ps4 and i get 13mb/s and at some points im getting over 30 on it, yet the ps4 was at 0.6mb/s changed the dns to a google one i found after googling the problem but its still only 400kb/s on the test! Any ideas?
Because PSN is heavily throttled. I've never seen it come close to maxing out my connection speeds.
It's almost like your downloads are determined by time, not size. So it takes four hours to download a theme, and four hours to download a 20GB game. Always been the same for me and everyone I know, but someone will tell you theirs downloads at 152Mb and that PSN is flawless.

Far cry 4 just completed..... It's the b****cks
No time at all? So you buy a game and it's downloaded instantly? That's impressive.
cause I said instantly didn't I you satchel. Usually within 5-10 minutes.

Ditto, my console downloads just as quick as my mac does.
Anyone experienced problems with the analogue sticks but not the usual wearing of the pads ?
I got Far Cry for Xmas and despite the fact I haven't really used the ps4 much the left analogue stick is playing up so much so I've had to buy another pad as my current one makes it massively frustrating.
Can hold the stick forward and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't and if you press it to sprint it sometimes stops in game movement altogether. There no play in the stick, no noticible unusual clicking or anything, in game it just seems to be reluctant to do anything

You can play the start of the game whilst it's downloading so it doesn't even matter really
To varying degrees of success. Often you can't play for more than ten minutes before having to wait while it continues to download, so whilst nice, it's hardly the wonder-feature that many like to pretend it is. But no, you're right, it isn't really a problem. However, it is throttled. Anyone is free to disagree, but they're wrong.
If PSN utilised even 50% of my connection, the experience would be much nicer. But then I download most of my games, so I'm affected more than most. I will also add that I roll 152mb, so I'm accustomed to very fast speeds. Expect on my PS3/4.

Late to the party, but just ordered a PS4, right at the time the deals have dried up and the Xbox One is going mega cheap - had to be PS this time round for me though, the big name games on Xbox all seem to be 1st person shooters, I'm bored of COD, GoW etc, looking forward to the Indie stuff on PS, and PS TV looks very useful? Anyone else use it?

I got the deal through Rakuten (ShopTo) - It's PS4, Last of Us Remastered, Little Big Planet 3, Watch Dogs & DriveClub for £400, but there was a Rakuten code, which gave me 10% off, so £360. Was by far the best I've found since Christmas.
But they don't have LoUR in stock at the moment, so it's on back order until they get it in.
Most other places the console alone is £330, or with a choice of game I didn't want, like FIFA 15, or COD. I wanted DriveClub and LoUR, Watch Dogs looks good, LB3 isn't what I'd of gone for out of choice, but it's different and I may end up liking it.

The 10% deal was better for me because there was no cap, now it's 15% off, but capped to £30.

Do people on here use the US PSN loophole to download the cheaper US games? I've got a guide on how to do it, and right now all the old GTA and Resident Evil games are available dirt cheap, would love the first three Resi games. Much of a risk?

Not personally used them but they have a rating of 0.83/10 on Reseller Ratings... :confounded:

I just bought my PS4 off them, absolute fine - they're connected to Rakuten, they're not gonna be cowboys. If you order from them via Rakuten, you're covered.
