Daniel_Shadow170 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 This is pretty fucking irratating. Honestly, once a year this shit happens from a bunch of keyboard warriors. Can't belive big companies like Sony and Microsoft cant get better security systems. Here's the problem you can't blame the companies if you really want to take psn or xbox down theirs not much they can do to stop it.I could do it and you could do it anyone could do it.

Beatties Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I was so looking forward to Star wars: Battlefront tonight, but I did some Fallout 4 instead Just hope its nothing to serious as there end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IamLean Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 (edited) Does this affect trophies? I earned some while this happening and they don't show up when I go to my trophy list (it says unable to load trophies or something like that). Even though system does notify me when I earn a trophy. I'm on ps4. Edited January 4, 2016 by Leascuad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on ps4. Yes, you can't view them offline on the ps4. You still earned them, you just can't sync them to your profile unless youre online.

parkerdip Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Its a bit of a step back for PS4 that you can't even view your trophy list while offline which you could do on PS3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMDE Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 This is pretty fucking irratating. Honestly, once a year this shit happens from a bunch of keyboard warriors. Can't belive big companies like Sony and Microsoft cant get better security systems. This doesn't have that much to do with security tbh. And what is happening is extremely hard to avoid.

CitizenElf Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Usually when it's a DDOS a group is quick to take the responsibility, and media are usually quick to jump on it. This downtime is still "under investigation" as of yet, so I have a feeling it's something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ItsWhooper Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 This is so weird, I figured since psn was down I'd watch some movies (DVD) and so I turned on my ps3 and it actually signed me in without any issues. So I figured it must be working now and I turned my ps4 on and it can't connect. So right now I'm online on my ps3 and I have a friend who's online on his ps3 as well. Whats going on?

NINTENDOTHEGOAT Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Its obviously a ddos attack how long is it down for ? who knows with sony and there potato servers probably 2 weeks like last years christmas shame there is nothing you can do to stop it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkthur Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Its a bit of a step back for PS4 that you can't even view your trophy list while offline which you could do on PS3 That's what happens when you design a console taking internet or online connectivity for granted.

EternalChaos72 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) When has this been down for everyone? I got the maintenance message about 5 hours ago, it's not really bugging me since i'm playing GTA3 anyway and it doesn't have any online features. Still down in the UK. Those DDOS virgins must be up to no good again. It's about time they got laid and stop bothering other people.

KresTias Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) Got message about issues 9 hours ago on PS4. But PS3 still can sign-in n working well. They have to explain exactly what going on. Every year since ps4 released we have troubles at this time.

NINTENDOTHEGOAT Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 you can divert the traffic somewhere else yes But Sony probably dont know how to do that they never learn and they need to stop bullshitting everyone saying it just maintenance its obvious its not it happend last year at xmas and they said they would upgrade all there servers so it would only take an hour or so to clear obviously not since its been down for about 7 now good job Sony useless as per usual Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gildenmagier Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Pro tip: Don't buy digital content. The current outage shows once again why this is not recommended by any means. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omelette Paradise Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I'm able to sign in on PS3 with no problems and remain signed in whilst playing games. No luck whatsoever signing in on my PS4, Vita, or the PlayStation app on my phone though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueFireReaper Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 As of now, this is what I've been able to pull off: Sign into PSN on both PSTV and PS3 Sync trophies on PSTV Access the PSN Store on PSTV Access the PSN Store on PS3, only to be immediately logged out. Like usual, it looks like it's going to take some time before things begin to clear up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sony has always been bad about online. But they're the greatestest company in the world! Pro tip: Don't buy digital content.
