PSN is back online :love:

Sony say PSN is getting back online now

Fair enough :thumbs:

Still won't let me 'update' my old PSN to work with todays systems. Either says error communicating with server on the PS4 or on the website it says "To sign in, an update of your account information is required. An e-mail message with instructions has been sent to --------@hotmail.com. It may take up to 24 hours to receive this message."

Nothing in my e-mail, screwed over in the most brutal of ways yet again when it comes to consoles, really should of stuck with PC.

Give it time to get up and running properly. PC's no different, the same thing could happen to Steam/Origin.

It never has mate, in 5 years I have not seen Steam go down for 3 days making me incapable of doing or playing anything on my system.

wow can't even create a new psn, seriously **** consoles.

PC Gamers are the vegans of the gaming world.

OMG THIS
Me: Eurgh PSN is still do-
Someone: I'm a pc gamer
Me: Okay but..
Someone: I'm a pc gamer
Me:...

Now getting error CE-35287-5 whenever I try do something, it truly is a rough existence in peasantville :sad:

It's all related to the same problem, sit back and chill, it'll be fixed soon.

Can't even verify my email, what the ****

can you use the same PSN account from your ps3 on the ps4?

Yus, it may be worth waiting a while to do stuff like this though, in case the network is still a bit buggy.

Yes but when is soon? As per usual like most companies Sony gives zero communication to customers so there is no knowing when, and when I finally get some free time to myself, this happens. Lizard Squad stopped their attacks at approx 10PM our time yesterday, and Sony are still being incompetent, it's frustrating. Soon I'll be back at work with zero time to use my brand new doorstop, I'm guessing at that point the online will work again, to probably go down again the next day I get off.

I have to agree about the lack of communication, it is rather annoying.

Yes and their customer service is not working either, I phone them up and it just bleeps and disconnects, they are useless, what have I actually given my money too?

Also, I'll get none of the compensation they will offer for this mess either, as my PSN hasn't been touched for years and I couldn't get it signed in and upgraded to PS+ due to this, if I wasn't jaded as hell at this point I'd think about sueing them for selling me a broken product :smug:

How did you upgrade to PS+ if you couldn't sign in? lol

I meant I couldn't, meaning that like Sony may see my PSN as being inactive and inelligable for whatever they have planned even though the downtime has effected me the same as everyone else.

Dunno if that makes sense :tongue:

Ah right, I'm pretty sure that you'd still get compensation, and if you didn't let them know about it, there's probably a number of people in the same boat.

hahaha... I know.. my son is one!

Peasantville. :joker: And your 'PS4 = paperweight'. :joker:

Seriously though, get ready for a lot of PSN down time if this year has been anything to go by. It's about time that Plus money was spent.

Lizard Squad are at it again, they've taken PSN down with more DDOS attacks, can somebody end their worthless lives already? Plenty of people know who they are...

Maybe, but Sony are completely useless at near enough everything so I'm not holding my hopes high.

True that, useless companies.

As if it wasn't bad enough that I've just spent 4 hours stuck in a traffic jam... I've come home to find PSN is down again. :bored: I've only had my ps4 for a month and already feel like I've spent more time offline than on.

I don't have a ps4 but my PSN is down too, I want to watch netflix :fist:
