The 2.0 system update has made an appearance, installed it just now, tried to go into the store to have a look at themes, system switched off, won't go back on again now smile

Cheers Sony!

ETA: Seems to be connected to the "rest mode" - if your device was in this when it got the update or drops into it afterwards it can just refuse to switch on again. Unplug the power supply for 30 seconds, plug it back in again, it's alive!

While looking for the above I also saw lots of people complaining about PSN being offline since the update.

I noticed the update resets some of the settings to Default which may affect standby mode or the ability to connect to theinternet whilst in that mode.

So Dice finally give us a decent patch (Havoc not included) and Sony go and screw up PSN!

I am trying not to think of a word beginning with C to call Sony. It's a struggle!

Hi Spud. I will be off for the next few days (none of us are on now because of a psn failure) but if you search for pistonheads in the server browser you will find our home. It's full of misfits, reprobates and the odd ninja/pexxy/pilchard player on a good day.If you see a (PH) next to a player name send them a friend request with PH in the message and they will add you.

Anyone else up for a virtual game of BF4? I will start.

Spawn in on a point with an enemy LAV nearby. Fire an RPG and get shot by LAV/Judge. Spawn in again, stand in front of LAV/Judge fire again. Get blown away again.!

Apparently the definition of madness is doing the same thing again and again but expecting a different result!

Shoots the guy teabaging Matt and runs over to teabag the guy only to get blown away (ie blown up, not off) by Judge in the LAV and then teabaged by Judge and the rest of the PH's in his squad who have all spawned on him just to teabag me! frown

(think we should put party chat commentary in also to make it more realistic)

Time to make use of the easy upload feature that was incorporated into the 2.0 update. I present to you Sway and his defib epicness  http://youtu.be/wAk20oOvzNk Sorry Sway, it's the only PH related footage I have.

Now that it is so easy to upload we can expect to see many tag taking and Tbagging clips being shared on here.

The new YouTube app refuses to remember my sign in details though!

How do you upload stuff? Tried the last day but after about 10 minutes I gave up!
ETA: Have they released another big update? or are ye just referring to the new features released in the last update?

Ha! I remember that.

According to my screen I was right next to him, hitting the bd with a full charge every time...

Gonna have to see what I've grabbed - fairly sure I have a capture of me one shot sniping a hell pilot at decent range. My sniper skills are usually even worse than my defib ones!

They released a big update for the PS4 yesterday. It was So big it took down psn for half the day!

You can now 'share' your stuff directly to your YouTube account. There was a workaround via Facebook before but nobody bothered. Now we can actually use the thing I expect to see loads more abuse on here.

It's always more nerve wracking when you are up against PH'ers. This has added even more tension!

I can forsee lots of selective editing, making people look a lot better than they are...

101 ways to kill VantageMech by Havoc.....

Wish I'd recorded Bullys 2 minutes of shock and amazement at me killing him in a head to head, then managing to kill the guy behind him after switching to the Deagle..

Hi guys. Discovered the Pistonheads server yesterday and logged on for some great games. Seems there are players of my standard out there and I actually lived long enough to enjoy myself. Respawning after reaching 20 deaths becomes a regular occurrence for me. The good news is I shall join future games so my bullet magnet play style will be available to you all again. shoottank

You defo need to jump in with us asap, I'm getting a bit sick of having the bullit magnet role smile.

Highlight of the night = Jumping from one chopper straight into Havocs chopper biggrin oh the little things..

Must have been the fact I had my glasses on!


After the upgrade last night I noticed that the party chat was alot clearer? Either that or its reset the headset levels smile

One thing Im getting is if you go to join a server and its full and sticks you in a queue, the back button doesnt work. I have to go out of BF4 to restart the game or wait untill there is space and join that server.

I have been having that issue for a while, at least the last week or so. PITA!
