Ao_Iconoclast Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 (edited) So far it seems that the update problem only affects those who changed their harddrives and that those new HDD are bigger than 500 GBs. -EDIT- nvm what I said previously, seems like it affected people who never changed their hardrives and those who changed them but were lower than 500 GBs.

skidmarkgn Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 (edited) In other forums I've looked at it seems like it's mostly (if not only) affecting people with 500GB - 1TB hard drives. Dammit, got 'd Edited June 19, 2013 by skidmarkgn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GetMitched Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 it worked for me, but to be safe avoid it until more is known... It is for the best to not update since I was surfing other forums to confirm that other users are being affected. I updated and nothing happened so I suggest being safe than sorry. Thank you both for your opinions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ao_Iconoclast Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Yes, it is better not to update till SONY fixes the update or creates a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GamepartnersTV Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 (edited) After reading the forum I posted earlier... I think it may be tied to people who have hard drives that are 500 GB or bigger.... Can anyone confirm this? I only have a 160 GB hard drive so.... I'm just speculating right now so can people confirm this?

Eddy_C_Kan Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I wish they made a trophy notification system where once you get a platinum, there would be fireworks on screen and a beautiful voice will say " you have earned a platinum, you be awesome" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GamepartnersTV Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 @GamepartnersTV 160GB here and it went ok for me. Thanks so can you turn off your system and turn it on without problem? I'm kinda scared to do it since I updated with the update.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azaan60 Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I'm not having any issues and my update took around 2 minutes. Same here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ao_Iconoclast Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Read teh whole PScommunity forum posts and it affects everyone with an updated HDD over 500 GBS as well as some other peeps randomly... some had their ps3s brick even if they had a factory slim ps3.

Guest Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Ps4 better not have these apocalyptic updates, I dont want my Ps4 bricked anytime so soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeySumbode Posted June 19, 2013 Author Share Posted June 19, 2013 Thanks so can you turn off your system and turn it on without problem? I'm kinda scared to do it since I updated with the update.... Yes. I did it twice with no problems. (i was really scared also with all this happening) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GamepartnersTV Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Yes. I did it twice with no problems. (i was really scared also with all this happening) I tried myself twice as well.... So I can safely assume that once the update is downloaded without incident, you can turn off the system and turn it on without problem.... Thank you to HeySumbode to helping.

Lady Lilith Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Well, guess I'll be playing offline for a while. I have a 1TB drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Lilith Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Ouch that must suck Not really, I don't really play online, ever. It may sound weird, but I can't stand playing with random people over the internet who I've never met before. Playing couch co-op is way better. The only time I play anything online is when I play with friends from here and Backloggery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ao_Iconoclast Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Well apparently, SONY pulled the update. Let's hope they submit a newer "FIXED" one tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myers Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I didn't update but what will the people with problems do? Can they turn their PS3's on? That would be pretty shitty if they can't run the next update to fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be pretty shitty if they can't run the next update to fix it. Select + Start (I believe) and then update via USB. That's just my guess though. It's how I updated after transferring hard drives. This may be the same type of thing. Edited June 19, 2013 by Sonic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
