UPDATE: Fixed; you need to tick both boxes in the power settings; update when in standby AND turn on from network. I hadn't ticked the second box

I have both of those checked. It had only DL'ed 15% when I got on yesterday evening.

Yeah game updates will download & install on their own.
System update will download. You have to install them.

My Killzone game save isn't uploading automatically despite being set too. Yesterday the file on my system was days newer than the one on PS+ cloud. I manually updated it (again)

So a console update will download but not install? Ok. but game updates should download and install?

Yeah.. Sometimes my game updates don't always install right away.

When you update system firmware you are basically re-writing the entire systems code. Multi-tasking other apps while doing this is not an option. Also prevents bricks. Say it did allow multi-tasking & did it in background & standby. Once you turn on the system you could Brick it if it was installing firmware for example. It's much safer for you if the PS4 just downloads the updated version.

Waiting on my PS4 to get here from UPS. When I set it up will it automatically find the software update, or do I have to download it and put it on a thumbdrive?

If so, can someone link me to the current update? Much thanks!

As soon as you set up your internet connection, it will detect that there is a newer Update and require you to hit the "Update Now" option.

There are direct links on the previous page. Here is the link to the update on their site complete with instructions on how to do it with a USB drive, if you didn't want to do it over the network.

Oh I'd rather do it over the network, I'm just saying whenever I set up a new PS3, it always said I had to put the update a thumbdrive and update it that way, it wouldn't connect to the internet and find it itself.

Good to see the PS4 will.

Groo The Perverted · 12-23-2013, 08:48 PM

EDIT: got it.

Really getting frustrated that there isn't a patch for bluetooth headsets yet. I'm stuck using the included one and it's horrible, I can't hear anybody.

Sad that I have an official Pulse headset and Sony bluetooth headset that I can't use. And no plugging it in the controller is not a solution I'm interested in.

Codey47 · 01-03-2014, 06:21 PM

Yeah, I have the Pulse Elites and the first official bluetooth headset
and I have the exact same problem with the included PS4 headset...everybody can hear me but nothing comes through the headphones whence they speak.

Does it work that way? Bc if so, that's what you're doing with the included headset anyway

Very true, I'm speaking for myself of course...when I buy wireless products my main objective is rid myself of surplus wires.

I wouldn't be using the headset provided if the Pulse Elites were supported. Plus there's always a chance of putting your pad down quickly due to a lapse in concentration and walking off dragging an expensive DS4 and a chance of wrecking the Pulse Elites.

Looks like the initial January window is now "Future Update"

Wow! Ridiculous shit there! What's the purpose of having the Stereo & Pulse headsets if we can't use them? Let me guess, Sony will release an upgraded headset for use with the PS4.

Really disappointed right now aboot this.

silversnake · 01-03-2014, 11:54 PM

Ridiculous.

RaijinUT · 01-03-2014, 11:58 PM

I don't see why this taking so long.

One of my biggest frustrations with the ps4 is that stupid earpiece. I swear I have ripped my earlobes up due to that stupid device.
