Popular Post Aranea Highwind Posted September 1, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2015 (edited) We’ve been busy preparing our next major system software update for PS4, version 3.00 (codename: Kenshin). The update is packed with content, and we wanted to give you quick glance at its key features. If you were selected for our beta program, you’ll get to see these features first-hand very soon. Keep in mind, some of this content might not make it into the final version — that’s why we’re having a beta, after all. We’ve added new ways to connect with friends and players around the world, expanding the social capabilities of the system even further. Online storage capacity increase — PS4 online storage capacity has increased from 1GB to 10GB for all PS Plus members. In 3.00 system software, you’ll see that we added a handy usage meter to monitor your available storage capacity, and a new Auto-Upload menu has been added to Application Saved Data Management. YouTube live — PS4 owners will be able to live stream gameplay to YouTube. Live streams will be viewable across YouTube, including on the new YouTube Gaming mobile app and website. Events — A new hub for events has been added, giving an overview of activities taking place in the games you play most, as well as official broadcasts. For instance, you may see an update for a Double XP weekend, a special enemy appearing at a scheduled time, or seasonal events like in-game towns being decorated for the winter. You’ll also receive notifications when the event starts, or if the timing changes. Favorite Groups — Favorite Groups has been added to the Friends app, letting you quickly access groups of people you like to play games with frequently. This will make the process of getting a game session up and running even easier. Communities — PS4 users will have the ability to create communities based around shared interests, like games, genres, and more. Communities include a message board with general discussion, screenshots shared by players, and the ability to join parties / games. If you want to tackle a big multiplayer raid, but don’t have enough friends available, this could be a great way to connect with other players who are looking for the same thing. Sharing video clips to Twitter — Users will have the ability to share video clips directly to Twitter. Maximum video length is 10 seconds, though you’ll have the ability to trim longer clips. Stickers — Tired of typing out messages? With this update, you’ll be able to send stickers to friends through the messages. Now Playing / What’s New — The Now Playing screen will display even more information about what your friends are doing, and you’ll be able to quickly jump into a game, party, request a screen share, or get sent to the PS Store to buy the game your friend is playing – further enhancing the social relationship with your friends online. Live from PlayStation — We’ve improved the Live From PlayStation app, making it easier to view popular trending broadcasts in real-time. Request to watch gameplay — Want to view a friend’s gameplay session? Now you can send a ‘Request to Watch’ notification to a player, which will start a live broadcast or Share Play invitation to the person playing. There’s more included in this update, but that’s a quick glance at some of the items we’re excited about the most. We’ll be back with more info about Kenshin soon, including the launch timing. http://blog.us.playstation.com/2015/09/01/ps4-system-software-3-00-features-detailed-beta-starts-today/ Edited September 1, 2015 by Paige 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could be interesting, if there's not a community for Wizardry style dungeon crawlers there will be when I get the update. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-Tron Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 It sounds cool, I'll wait until other people beta test an entire system update only to have their systems crash on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not_like_therest Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 The storage is the main one for me. Maybe communities, I need more friends that I actually play with instead of ones I added for boosting. But I play mostly singleplayer so ehh.....we shall see.

AJC3317 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 the storage increase is the only thing that really interests me, and even 10gigs isn't enough. events could be cool, we'll see if it actually works. but really there are so many basic things that need to be added to the system, and things the system already has that don't work right, that seeing a list of new things that probably won't work is just annoying to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihiris- Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 About time for the online storage increase. Folders and friend notifications still mindboggingly absent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post IrishNexus Posted September 1, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2015 Still waiting for the ability to delete any game from your trophy list, regardless of completion, and then have your trophy score adjust to accommodate the removed trophies. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExHaseo Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I'm loving the increased storage, but I am not a fan of people being able to request to watch/shareplay. I can already see people spamming with requests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlindMango Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 (edited) This update looks awesome, can't wait for the PSNProfiles community to be a thing! =D Also, I hope that by the year 2028 we will get notifications for when friends log online/offline.

DizzyDavidson Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 I just hope all these new features don't get cramped in the menu and squeeze my games into the "library". It's bad enuff already that it can't be customized. PS: That PSNProfiles Community does sound good tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super-Fly Spider-Guy Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 The Communities bit just reminds me all too much of Miiverse. I rarely use Miiverse other than to get a screenshot, and I don't know a single other Nintendo owner who uses Miiverse. Of course, Communities on PSN could prove useful where Miiverse didn't, but I somehow doubt it will be used outside of a few people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skiptracing Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 This update definitely looks awesome. I'm wondering if we're ever going to be able to buy avatars on PS4 or at least change to our already bought ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F22-Razgriz Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 This update looks awesome, can't wait for the PSNProfiles community to be a thing! =D YES, SIR!

StrickenBiged Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Soo, is one of the mods going to create a PSNP Community when this update rolls out? It might turn out to be a good way of arranging ad-hoc gaming sessions with the people who are online and playing there and then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satoshi Ookami Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 10GB, YES! Now if only they raised the capacity for other consoles. Codename: kenshin.. kenshin.. kenshin? regardless, that online space for saves sounds good Wonder how many people got this loli community JOINING FREAKING JOINING RIGHT NOW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NullRay85 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 (edited) Sounds good, the storage increase is something to look forward to. However, I hope they add the offline/busy status and other friend notification features in the future.
