Popular Post RookieShows Posted March 9, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted March 9, 2017 I enjoyed the notifications before said update. they were clear and each sorted into a category with one general one at the top. Now they're a jumbled mess. Why even change it? 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satoshi Ookami Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) So first they kill black notifications and replace them with ugly disgusting white ones and now they screw it even more?

Well honestly you can still turn that off, and yea, it is a nice update otherwise but i still hate that they screwed up the notifications. Why fix what isn't broken? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the Notifications alone: Before the updates, The notification-menu was sorted into different categories, with a general one at the top and the split ones like friend stuff, downloads and uploads further down. Now it's just one huge mess, all notifications on one screen. and unlike before where you can click notifications read on the general one and make space, in this one you have them all on there. Atleast you can still access downloads and uploads in the options menu but it's still a dumb change. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satoshi Ookami Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) Okay, just updated and... OMG THIS IS SO CRAP! Who thought this was a good idea ffs? Now it looks like one ugly cluttered list where you can't find anything. Jesus Christ, why... Edited March 9, 2017 by Satoshi Ookami 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanemitsu_sg Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 You can press Options and sort it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RookieShows Posted March 9, 2017 Author Share Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) 3 minutes ago, Kanemitsu_sg said: You can press Options and sort it. How? All that exists in the options menu is: Notification settings: Decide what kind of notifications you want or don't want to receive. Downloads: Check and clear Downloads Upload: Check and clear Uploads. It's still chaotic. Edit: Even when you clear downloads, it will still be mentioned in your Notifications. Edited March 9, 2017 by RookieShows Forgot to mention a small extra part. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxie_M0us3 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 You're not alone. I wish that we have the option of going back to the previous notifications menu. As I wish to have the black notification bar again... but we need to get used to it. It doesn't affect our games after all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess you're right about that. but in the end, Speaking up is still an option too. Not that i think any sony executive will ever read this thread, but having somewhere to vent is always nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many times they read about people requesting "PSN ID CHANGE PLZZZ" and they haven't done it yet? They can add wathever they want, but all I care is my PSN ID Change and my life is complete!

Super-Fly Spider-Guy Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Since I ain't gonna be bothering to play online any time soon, is it ugly enough that I should hold off updating for a bit just for the fuck of it or? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scorpiio93 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) I too, preferred it when it was categorised. It feels too cluttered as one big list /: Edited March 9, 2017 by Beeinhollywood 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in the end i started this thread because i find it a dumb change. why remove the way it got sorted? Sure you get those notifications while playing anyways but it's just much clearer to have it in certain categories and one general if you can't be bothered than to remove the categories altogether and just have them all in one big mess that you can't even remove to clear it up. I got the DISCOVER notifications in there from when i bought my ps4... over 2 years ago. Why are they back? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Oh no Sony, what is this? It looked so much nicer before . Oh well, at least I can still see download and upload notifications seperately by pressing Options. Those are the ones I cared about the most anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant! Jk But seriously that's another thing that bothers me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paleblood Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) Yeah, let's just bash the one thing that is kinda meh and forget all the amazing changes made! - The Internet. Edited March 9, 2017 by Joker 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C'mon man that's just a nonargument. Just because alot of new cool things got added doesn't take away that they ruined something they should've just left as it is. I mean what's the good thing about that notification menu changing? I'm not looking to bash the entire update, i'm just pointing out a dumb flaw that was unnecessary and soured this wholre thing for me, As i was excited for the update. And i don't even own a PS4 Pro. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
