EliteGamer1983 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Does anyone have any information as to when we might finally get an update allowing us to view ps4 trophies offline? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damon8r351 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Second Tuesday of next week. Which is to say never, because the longer any console and game maker can force us to be online is that much more control they can exert over how we use their product. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saltyie Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Nothing has been confirmed, so unless someone who works at Playstation's Stability HQ browses PSNP, no-one has any information Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheYuriG Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Does anyone have any information as to when we might finally get an update allowing us to view ps4 trophies offline? They do it that way so the info can't be hacked IIRC. Only temp data is saved on the console and deleted when synched. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only temp data is saved on the console and deleted when synched.Even so it's got to be possible to just display that local temp data when the ps4 is offline. Instead of not showing any trophies at all and throwing up an error message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliteGamer1983 Posted June 26, 2015 Author Share Posted June 26, 2015 In my opinion, it is the biggest setback on an otherwise great console. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daftprophet Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 If Yuri is right, that's not a setback at all. It's inconvenient, but I'd rather that then a bunch of fucking hackers running amok. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not going to happen, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliteGamer1983 Posted June 26, 2015 Author Share Posted June 26, 2015 Its unfortunate because sometimes for various reasons I find my self without internet access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey_Kanga Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Sorry bud, but I doubt an update like that will ever come. Keep in mind, when these consoles were being released, they were pretty much being released as "online" consoles. If you also take into fact that these consoles are now pretty much stream machines, we're talking, YouTube, Netflix, PSN, the PS Store, everything requires internet. Hell didn't the Xbox One come out as an ONLY internet required console, meaning if you bought it without internet connection is was practically a brick? In this day and age, everyone has internet, and everything requires some sort of internet connection, plus as Damon said, it's also a great way for the company to force us to use their product the way they want us too, as unfortunate as it is, and as great as it would be to sometimes check your trophies offline, it's a big update for a small thing, that really isn't that much good anyways.

Welcome to the new age of gaming mate. For the Xbox, I believe they retracted their original idea of requiring internet to play games after customer backlash. As well, to say that everyone has internet is a gross overstatement. A majority of people may have access to internet, but everyone definitely does not. To those who do not have internet access, I would barely call it a 'small thing' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
