Undead Wolf Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 (edited) I've noticed that some things have been slower ever since the last big firmware update. I wonder if things are any better on the PS4 Pro... If so, it's clearly a conspiracy to get PS4 Amateur owners to upgrade.

olimoo101 Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 While my PS4 runs absolutely fine, one of my friend's PS4s runs terribly only because of his internet. Just going through the XMB on his PS4 is super slow just because it's taking a while for the PS4 to get the data that it needs. Just read the rest of the replies and it seems like quite a few other people are suggesting it. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKB1KE Posted November 13, 2016 Author Share Posted November 13, 2016 I've been getting 'please wait' / four face button loading icons a shitload when trying to access anything on my account like settings, update wall, profiles, friend list and PStore since the latest software updates. Worked fine before. Have to log in/out or network test to reset whatever the prob is. ...oh, and when trying to sync trophies it stays at 0%, then suddenly when I check back later it syncs. Used to do it instantly. When I first got the PS4 I was wowed over difference between PStore loading times and the like. Not so much now... This guy gets it. Yep, exactly what I am experiencing. Things would load instantly with the first PS4 software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infected Elite Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 (edited) Could be. Shaw loves to throttle..... Telus is better. We have the Telus 150 and our ps4's run fine, even when both are downloading plus we both are on our laptops downloading music as well. Id even suggest restarting your modem/router once your ps4 is off, and turn it back on once its reset go to www.speedtest.com to see your internets speed.

Satoshi Ookami Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 My PS4 runs well. But that could have something to do with the fact that I use it as an accessory Joking, it could have something to do with HDR updates for games. If you have many compatible games, PS4 Amateur may need time to adjust. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWilhelmStorck Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 Been having a bit trouble on my end aswell, but mostly i've noticed it when I try to load up my trophies, it will just hang for a few minutes and then nothing, then when I try again it usually loads them. But it feels like the overall smoothness of navigating the menus are lacking a bit too, but that might just be me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuckSwimmer Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 The only issues I've had lately is when uploading trophies, it sometimes stops/freezes for a second.. Same thing with party chats.. although I have 300+ added so I guess I can understand why the party chat section takes so long to load up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elvick_ Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Could be. Shaw loves to throttle..... Another victim of Shaw. I feel you. I only get this with the PS Store and the Newsfeed [if you click to comment for example] though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starcrunch061 Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 I'm in the same boat. Glad it's not only me. I was worried my system was screwing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaivRules Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 I have really shitty Comcast (Xfinity) internet at 10 mbps and when it's the worst, my PS4 loads like crap. When it's not acting up, the PS4 navigation works as fluid as I can expect. It's definitely heavily dependent on your internet connection. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKB1KE Posted November 23, 2016 Author Share Posted November 23, 2016 Guys, we're talking about sony servers... What do you expect? Better running servers because the cost of PS+ went up.... Or was that just a clever way to gouge the customers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkSoleride Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Its not bad internet or anything like that the UI is just slow as anything, I have a 42Mb connection which fluctuates from 31 to 42MB during peak hours and keeps solid otherwise and does not matter which the UI is still slow, with over 800GB of free space left too on my HDD not to mention that my HDD has a SSD 20GB partition which does ultimately nothing to correct this issue so i think its just Sony.
