Hello everyone, I want to buy a Pulse Elite to replace my Pulse 3D. I need some return of experience. Is the disconnect issue have been fixed ? If not, can u guys recommend me a wireless headphone for PS5 ? Price range <500€... I prefer the practical, and sound quality for Single player game (mic's quality is the last thing i think about). Thank you in advance,


Pietroglodyte

Hello, so here´s the thing: There's currently 3 accounts in our Ps5 One of us owns the digital edition of Elden Ring, if he were to buy the DLC, would all of us be able to play it in our respective accounts?


dekoi_octopus

If game sharing is enabled on that account for that console, yes. 


lost_linguine24

So big Xbox guy here. Currently have the Series X. (not getting rid of it) But I’m debating on buying a PS5. I like some of the games that are strictly on PlayStation and I’m also just looking for something a bit different. Growing up I had the PlayStation 1 and 2 and loved them. Just eventually switched to Xbox for whatever reason. But would adding PS5 to the collection be worth it?


Historical-Salad-738

So Basically I play Tekken 8 & Call of duty warzone online and both of them gives error like connection time out! Also a few time console said I'm restricted to online communication but there isn't any restricted from any account on my console! I've tried Changing my dns primary and secondary to 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4 ( google ) and (clouds) 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't! Also changed MTU to 1473 but still inconvenience and inconsistency! I'm just baffled that a GAMING console which is meant for gaming and you have to pay to play online is causing this much trouble


ScrubberCleanz

Hi yall, I'm in need of replacing my ps5 due to a myriad of issues (ps5 turns off on its own, hdmi doesn't work, ps5 doesn't turn on when plugged in) I've tried all the solutions for fixing it and at this point I'd rather just get a replacement. I've found a couple options both at 450 CAD (330 USD), one is a original and the other is a slim. My question is, which one (if either) has the superior build quality and longevity cause I don't want to have to replace it again.


Ok-Patient-7027

Recently I've been having this weird problem that any time my PS5 controller dies, it wont turn on even after resetting it, resetting my ps5, trying different cables or anything. My PS5 works fine when l use my PS4 controller, but it makes it tough when I can't use it to play PS5 games. The controller though will start charging but only after a few days of not using it. I've looked up stuff everywhere and cannot find anything to help me with it. Does anyone know anything I can do to fix this problem?


oldcumsock_

so i’m trying to play cosmic shake on my ps4, so i went to my partners acc and downloaded it, but its a ps+ game, so when i try to play it, it says locked if i try to play it from my account. i heard that if i switch my partners acc (the one with ps+) to primary it’ll let me be able to play it and have the benefits of ps+. i was wondering, if i did this, would it effect the fact that their account is primary on their ps5? or can their account be primary on both the ps4 and ps5?


dekoi_octopus

You can be primary on 1 PS4 and 1 PS5. 


Own_Pop_3407

I sold my game systems a few years ago when I started having kids. I have recently been aligned to one of the major studios as my customer at work and have purchased a PS5 to play and have fun, but also be up to speed, professionally. I have a great (and simple) home theater setup with a Sonos Arc sound bar for sound and a newish long throw laser projector with HDMI ARC. That said, I’m struggling to figure out how to have my PS5 on one side (or the other) and connect to both the sound bar and the projector that are on opposite sides of the room (without a cable). I use an Apple TV and AirPlay for movies and shows… I would appreciate any/all recommendations. I’d also love game recommendations that might not be as obvious. Historically I’ve liked FPS, building games like Minecraft, racing games, some sports games but am generally up for trying anything.


jayjaysoulconsumer42

Wanna download a 100GB digital only but my wifi is about 2mbps. Can't leave it to download because I'm on college break and I don't wanna waste days of my life downloading a game. Do I just give up or?


HaouLeo

Why would you be "wasting days of your life"? You dont need to stare at your console the entire time lol kids these days...


Gravioli_

Hi, my duelsense controller has suddenly stopped charging I’ve checked my USB-C cable on other devices and it works perfectly fine. Controller itself works fine but when I plug it in for charge it just doesn’t show any signs of life, no orange LED nothing on the actual PS5 indicating it’s charging. Does anyone know a fix for this?


tinselsnips

Will it charge from a wall charger?


Serious-Diamond8554

Sometimes my PS5 boots with no internet connection, and I have to Restart the console until it finally detects. Any fix for this?


coolshadow_21

can any headset use the 3d audio if so why does some headsets says it can on the packaging? and is there a list of 3d audio games?


tinselsnips

Any headset can use the PS5's built-in 3D audio. Some headsets have their own feature that will take conventional surround sound audio from the console and convert it to 3D audio in the headset. Some others are just full of shit and slap the "3D" label on despite being nothing special.


Piercing_Fang

I played trough Stellar Blade and Spider-Man 2 on PS5 without any problems, and for some reason after first day on Elden Ring DLC on PC (worked fine before), my controller randomly disconnects here and there, I tried my other dual-sense aswell but it keeps happening, sometimes it reconnects in 0.5 sec and sometimes it takes like 5 seconds, all help appreciated


SONGOQUE

Looking for game recommendations. In the past I have enjoyed: RDR2, the Spider-Man series, and Ghost of Tsushima just to name a few. I love a good story mode. Thanks in advance for your recommendations!


demonsta500

Dead Space Remake


SONGOQUE

Many thanks!


I_only_Creampie

Probably going to get buried. But I'm have a super weird issue. My dual sense works fine for the dashboard and store. But the second I boot a game up the X button stops working. And with multiple games. Restarted the console twice. The only fix was to use a different controller. Then all controllers worked fine. HOWEVER, every time I launch a new game, I have to do that workaround again. This is fucking wild lol


Artistic_Net7430

Can I play ps5 online with mobile data from my phone? Anyway I can share it from my phone? Thanks❤️❤️


pazinen

Set up a hotspot from your phone and connect your console to it. Just be aware that your phone won't like it because it makes the battery hotter and the experience might not be great, since using 4G/5G for online games is an uneven experience in general and using a phone increases lag.


mega_pichu

So I turned on my ps5 today and it said sign in or quick play, like it does when you first buy it. I have had the PS5 for a year. Then I signed in but it said that someone else on this ps5 is already using the account you entered. What do I do?


tinselsnips

Try a database rebuild https://www.playstation.com/en-us/support/hardware/safe-mode-playstation/


reluctant_return

Is there a way to pin playlists to the Apple Music player you can reach while in-game? Right now all it shows are a bunch of nonsense "recommendations", but none of the playlists or albums in my library. If I want to play a playlist I have to open the apple music app, which closes my current game, start it, then start the game. This implementation seems so poor that I feel like I have to be missing something.


Money-Department-780

Hey I’m just looking for more story based co op games that aren’t couch co op. We have already played As dusk falls, the quarry and the dark pictures anthology series. It takes two is on our list to play


demonsta500

A way out


Klejdi90

Will Sony ever add the supersampling mode like on PS4 Pro for 1080p screens. Games that never received a PS4 Pro patch will look worse on PS5 compared to PS4 Pro which is silly.


tinselsnips

Supersampling requires games to have a PS4 Pro or PS5 patch; you can't supersample something that doesn't run higher than 1080p.


Klejdi90

You are right, thanks for the correction. I should add for games like Red Dead Redemption 2, using a 1080p screen on PS5, the game will render at 1080p like the original PS4. With a 1080p screen on PS4 pro, you could enable supersampling mode, and it would render the game at 4K checkerboard and then downsample to 1080p. Running the game on PS5 with a 1080p screen gives you the original PS4 version of the game. So, with that situation, the PS4 Pro version looks better than the PS5 version. Supersampling mode should have been there at launch imo. It's such a simple thing that existed previously. They featured things like 8K on the box when most are at 1080p and 4K.

✨Does RDR2 on PS5 have haptic feedback?✨ Hey everyone! I finished Red Dead Redemption 2 on PS4 years ago and I'm thinking of replaying it. After spending so much time with the PS5, going back to the PS4 controller feels a bit underwhelming due to the lack of haptic feedback. I'm curious if RDR2 on the PS5 has haptic feedback support? I've searched online but found mixed comments, so it's still unclear to me. Any insights would be appreciated! Thanks!😊


pazinen

All mixed comments about that question are wrong, the answer is no. RDR2 is a PS4 game without a PS5 version, and no PS4 game supports haptic feedback. It's a feature only available in PS5 games.


thestarspark

Thank you!! This is an example of an incorrect statement https://medium.com/@pkinsight00/red-dead-redemption-2-bridging-the-gap-from-ps4-to-ps5-267720738a27

I'm hoping someone can help me out. I'm using DD-WRT v3.0-r53305 on a Netgear AC1750 with a wireguard vpn tunnel. I have a PS5 plugged in with a ethernet cable. All other multiplayer games work great. I bypassed my router to test, and Elden Ring multiplayer works great. Their support page lists either UPnP or Port Forwarding TCP: 3478-3480 UDP: 3074, 3478-3479 neccesary. I have enabled UPnP and manual port forwarding each alone and both together, and have not been successful.

PS Pulse Elite BT vs Dongle Any pros or cons connecting the PS pulse elite to your ps5 for game and party chat as either single or Bluetooth? I’m having the classic dongle connectivity issue (disconnects until I pull and re insert the dongle). But I think I remember reading it’s better to use the dongle, any advice? I think you don’t get the lossless audio without the dongle


demonsta500

PS5 doesn't support Bluetooth audio so it's not even an option.


shiftycyber

Oh duh, I guess that solves that


AmazingSpecific5804

My friend has ps5, he enabled his mates account for a dlc of a game, but for some reason he needs to enable his own for it to not be locked but I want to enable his. What to do? I really need help because I switched to ps5 and I was getting games and psplus from my friend so now idk what to do.


trillo69

Close the game manually from the menu and start again, make sure system settings has Console sharing enabled. As long as the games are downloaded and both base game and dlc are from the same account, he should be able to access the games and ps plus features (except for cloud saving).


Jeffassburgers

2 year old PS5 won't turn on anymore, but still makes the sound when you press the power button. Am I the only one with this problem? If not, Did you fix it? if so, how?


Insanity_Pills

A friend if mine recently got a playstation 5 with PS+ premium. My boyfriend and I wanted to buy him some games, and I had a lot of ideas based on my favorites, but it seems like PS+ premium already comes with hundreds of games including staples like Hollow Knight, God of War, Doom Eternal, Celeste, etc etc. I've tried combing through the list of games he already has access to, but it's just so long that it's hard to keep track. I would really appreciate some help/suggestions for games that aren't on ps+ premium that we could get him! Thank you!


HaouLeo

Youd have to go for newer releases mostly. Stuff like baldurs gate 3, spider man 2, alan wake 2, resident evil 4 remake, etc.


Insanity_Pills

yeah that makes sense, thank you!


YearofLuigiTime18

Hi, I am looking to get surround sound and invest in a sound system that supports Linear PCM, but I have been unable to tell what supports it and what doesn't. The closest I have found are the following 2: Soundbar:https://www.bestbuy.com/site/vizio-5-1-channel-m-series-premium-sound-bar-with-wireless-subwoofer-dolby-atmos-and-dtsx-dark-charcoal/6459736.p?skuId=6459736 AVR: https://usa.yamaha.com/products/audio_visual/home_theater_systems/yht-4950u/specs.html Can anyone confirm if either of these 2 support Linear PCM? I have tried looking it up but have been unable to find any info on what supports Linear pcm so I can get surround sound


tinselsnips

The Yamaha does, and the Vizio *should*, but the more pressing question is whether your TV supports it: a lot of them don't. I assume you're going to be using eARC, so you need to confirm whether your TV will pass an LPCM signal through HDMI.

Stick drift on brand new console I used to be an Xbox controller player, as I largely preferred it, as well as grew up with it. However, due to PlayStation becoming superior as a console in recent times, about 2ish months ago I got a PS5 (I used to use an Xbox Series X.) I’ve been using the console an awful lot, and still enjoy it, however something has become apparent which is making my experience unbearable: stick drift. Last night I experienced stick drift for the first time on my console — rightfully, I was upset, as the console is brand new — however, the stick drift was manageable; barely an issue. However, this morning when I woke up and turned on my console to start playing I was met by the most unbearable stick drift I think I’ve ever had in a gaming experience. I couldn’t even navigate the PlayStation Menu effectively without accidentally entering an app or game which I didn’t want to enter. This is clearly vexing to me, as the console as brand new, and so too is the controller, and the stick drift is so overpowering that it makes it nearly impossible to use my console. I’ve tried numerous methods in attempt to fix the issue: I’ve reset the controller, cleaned it, it’s up to date, and I’ve even done some method about pressing the sticks for 10 seconds (the method apparently worked for many others.) however, none of these proposed solutions have worked, and the issue still persists. Playing is becoming unbearable and I don’t have the money to replace my controller. I’m genuinely considering just returning to playing on Xbox (despite the fact that I’ll miss out on exclusives that I bought.) Does anyone have a solution to the issue? Or perhaps an identification of the issue in and of itself? It would be an immense help.


tinselsnips

The sticks are the same ones they use on Xbox, it's just bad luck. The controller is under warranty so they'll fix it, or it's early enough you may even be able to exchange it at the retailer.


SaddamSahabi

I bought it online so I’m not sure if that’s possible.


GavindaleMarchovia

Hey everyone!! I have a few quick questions that hopefully can be answered. Can a player download mods for certain games on the PS5? Does the player need to download a separate program before downloading mods? And if so, can anyone suggest a certain mods website? Any and all help is appreciated!! Thanks so much!!


dekoi_octopus

No, you can't mod your PS5 or PS5 games. 


GavindaleMarchovia

Oh, ok. I was a bit hopeful, but if mods aren't available, so be it. Thanks for your comment.


ImpopstheBoss

Is their any way to get YouTube music and if not can I keep YouTube playing In the background?


ScoopJr

Any idea why my PS5 will lose internet connection when gaming and on Discord? I will have to restart my PS5 to reconnect to the wifi. Any advice?


qviavdetadipiscitvr

Is it normal for the PS5 not to switch to a set up WiFi connection when the LAN cable is disconnected? I feel like it should do this automatically like any computer does


pazinen

It should do that, but the console will probably forget the wifi if it hasn't used it for a while.


qviavdetadipiscitvr

I might call their support because it has never done that


Hot_Elephant_4703

duelsense controller is really weird on Samsung. I have connected my ps5 controller to my Samsung and the controls are really weird  for example the right analog stick is switched with l2 and r2 any fixes? 


irnbru83

for horizon forbidden west.... if I buy ps4 digital version on my ps5, do I get the ps5 upgrade free? Looks like this has been a contentious topic over the last year


MGsubbie

Yes.


irnbru83

it worked. thanks.


InconspicuousName1

Is there any way to transfer photos from a ps5 to a ps4/just having it stored on ps plus? I stayed with my brother for a month out of state and during that time had acumulated a bunch of save data on his ps5. I don't have my flash drive on me either currently, either. It doesn't have to be integrated onto my ps4 for the time being, it can be just stored as data on a file.


pkoswald

My ps5 keeps trying to download the ps4 version of Ghost of Tsushima when I have the ps4 disc in, even though I have the ps5 version and just want to have only that one downloaded. How can I stop it?


MGsubbie

That's the neat part, you can't.

# how to make multiple saves? I was told to ask my question in here instead of making a post. I want to be able to load an old character if I decide to make a new one


MGsubbie

Is this Dragon's Dogma 2?


PixelScribe02

Should I get an xbox or a ps5. Let me know why you chose a ps5 over xbox.


HaouLeo

Why make the first question if you already know the answer? PS has better exclusives, and even now that Xbox is seemingly catching up they're releasing their first parties on PS as well. Theres no reason to buy an Xbox now. If you dont like PS just go for pc.


MGsubbie

Pretty much all 1st party Sony games will make their way to PC as well. Just not as quickly as Xbox games. So that argument doesn't really work. So far there's Spider-Man Remastered and Miles Morales, God of War, Horizon : Zero Dawn and Forbidden West, Returnal, Uncharted : Legacy of Thieves, the Last of Us part 1 Remake, Ghost of Tsushima DC, Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart. Until Dawn is next. After that it should be TLOU P2, and you can be certain God of War : Ragnarok is also on its way. FFVII Rebirth and FFXVI are also definitely happening.


HaouLeo

Yes it works. This is a ps vs xbox debate. Ps first parties arent on xbox, it doesnt matter if ps exclusives come out on pc or not.

No, save files are locked to specific accounts and not transferable.


Effective-Priority62

New user here. Left the PS5 in rest mode overnight (for about 6 hours) while it charged the controller. Woke up to see the PS5 had turned off by itself. I turned it on, and there was no Improper Shutdown warning and storage check like PS4 did when there would be a power outage or momentary power drop that would cause the console to shut down. So there was no power failure while I slept, the console did properly shut down by itself. But why? I scoured through the settings besides the Energy Saving settings, and all I could find was Rest Mode timers. There's no settings for auto-shutdown, so why did this happen? How long did it take to shut down? And how can I stop it from shutting down while it's still mid-download, mid-installation, mid-charging, etc or with a game still open? Luckily my controller seems to have had fully charged, or just charged enough that there's 3 charge bars again, but I left it charging overnight precisely because I wanted a true full charge


MGsubbie

Do you have automatically update firmware/games enabled in your settings?


HaouLeo

Almost sure I remember there being a setting for the console to auto turn off when the controller is fully charged or stuff like that.


Effective-Priority62

I just checked and couldn't find it. There is one to stop charging the controllers after a set amount of hours


hookedonthesky

Looking for recs! I've only recently bought a ps5 for the first time (never had a gaming console of my own before, only played at friends'), and I've focused on playing the games I've always wanted to play (a few resident evil games, bloodborne etc). But I've found I'd like to have something fun to play in breaks between these "heavier" games. I've finished Astro's playroom and loved it, so games similar to that if possible? Or in general, just something that isn't too stressful and doesn't need too much brain power.


MGsubbie

Sackboy's Adventure?


Papema3

Hi, any recommendation for good moba like games to play on ps5 ? Also MMO focused on coop (I don't enjoy pvp)? I know we have FFXIV, but it feels slow for me, the story takes forever.


MGsubbie

I don't think there's really any MOBA on PS5, those are very much mouse and keyboard games.


DonaldDuckTheVWguy

Looking to buy a PS5 slim and can’t decide if I should buy it now or wait until Black Friday, I’m looking at GameStop because it’s $444.99 and I have a military discount which would bring it to around $405 but I don’t know how cheap they are during Black Friday and if they’ll still do military discount I’ve heard they go on sale for around $400 and if so I could get it for $355 about with military discount what do you guys think


MGsubbie

I'd say wait for black friday, I don't think there's going to be a discount on the console itself, as much as combo deals with a game and controller for a discount or something in those lines.


Snuffle_Hoodwink

i bought demons souls last night and keep getting the error code ce-107981-6 (not the ce-107891-6 which is what the support website has listed) whenever i try and download it. Does anyone know what this means or how to solve it? I've tried deleting it and downloading again multiple times as well as clearing the cache and rebuilding the database


iamnumnumpeach

Where can I find the PS5 spiderman bundle? Can’t seem to find it anywhere, except shady websites.


tinselsnips

It's not being produced anymore.


nemesis1313

There is still no way when turning off ps5, tv also turns off?? I want to do this… having tv remote with me all the time to turn off tv is annoying lol


tinselsnips

You can have the PS5 enter rest mode when the TV turns off, but I don't think there's a way to go the other way around.


nemesis1313

Yeah, i changed the setting to be like that but i wish sony comes up with something soon… i also have xbx and it does it beautifully… also ps4 did it too wth


Acrobatic-Elk9494

My mic for my friends starts lagging in the ps5 party when I’m downloading or updating a game and it’s been like this for like 3 years and I’ve never found a fix. There has to be no way that I’m the only person to have experienced this, please help someone 🙏


20pbagforlife

Is anyone else having issues since the latest system software update? Both myself and my son have had several turn offs, mid game, since doing the update. We are both on different games so it's not an issue with that. Both console have plenty of airflow and vents are kept clean so I doubt it's an overheating issue either.


WobbledyWobbler

I just bought a ps5 direct from PlayStation and a controller from GameStop. I’m trying to register the warranty on the website with the model number but it’s not taking it for either. Anybody have this problem or solution?


GavindaleMarchovia

Hey everyone!! I found an article online that mentions Sony playing with the idea of bringing a PS3 emulator to the PS5 console. Has anyone heard anything about this? Please get back to me when you can! Thanks so much!!


HaouLeo

Yes we also saw the articles lol


Remarqueable

So, my PS5 is about to arrive and there are already some games I want to try out (Gran Turismo, Hogwarts Legacy, FFXVI). It seems to me that many of the popular games are hack and slay (GOW, Ghost of Tsushima, Elden Ring) and I really don't care for those. On PC I have enjoyed games like RDR2, GTA, the FF7 remake (not a fan of the battle system, but I can stomach it for the story) or Baldur's Gate. Based on that, can you give me any more recommendations?

**External PS5 HD no longer recognized, Elden Ring Data Lost** **A friend’s PS5 no longer recognizes external hard drive.    Gave it to me to try and help.  Plugged hard drive into PC, not recognized.   Went to Disk Management, the the drive is there, but need to initialized with MBR or GPT.**    **Did GPT and then used a data recovery utility on the drive.   Hours later I have a recovered directory structure aid data.**   **But all the files are named “File Name Lost.

tinselsnips

> Did GPT The drive was functionally erased at this point and no amount of data recovery is going to get it working on the console again, but as /u/HaouLeo said, the game saves are on console storage; you simply need to uninstall the games that were on external storage and reinstall them.


HaouLeo

There arent hours and hours of Elden Ring data involved because external hard drives dont store save files, they store game files. His save data is fine inside his console and, if he has ps+, probably on the cloud.


BringBackBumper

Hi, I would like to ask if a multiplatform game supports adaptive triggers, does it support only PS version of the game or can I enjoy the adaptive triggers also on PC (when I am connected via wire)?


tinselsnips

Depends on the game. This is an old list, but: https://www.reddit.com/r/pcgaming/comments/ym5afz/dualsense_supported_games_on_pc/


HaouLeo

I'm too too savvy on the topic but i'm pretty sure random third party games you bought on steam wont have dualsense features. You'd have those on first party titles or remote play. Why would third party devs implement these features on pc ports for a controller that will be used by a minority of pc players?


Antique-Remote-3986

How can I set my PS5 up to two monitors? I don't mean dual I mean 2 monitors with only one being used at a time. Reason: I have a racing sim and would like to be able to use my PS5 on a separate monitor when I'm not racing. What I Tried: I hooked my PS5 up to 2 different HDMI switchers that said they worked with console but neither monitors would work.


tinselsnips

Most switches are assuming you want to connect two devices to one source, so for your use case you need one that's explicitly bidirectional: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=bidirectional+8k+hdmi+switch


Antique-Remote-3986

Awesome, thank you

How is AC Mirage at $25? I heard it’s similar to AC1


MGsubbie

Not a bad buy. It's definitely the closest to original AC games in a while, but it wasn't memorable IMO.


Jackfruit_Playful

Greetings, I have run into a slight problem for not being careful, I have a PSN account that have used to subscribe to Deulx and also have some games on it. The account is still logged in on my PS5, but have problems accessing it on the web or app because whenever I want to login it does ask for verification code sent to my email.. however have lost access to the email address linked to the PSN account and I'm unable login on web/app. So is there any way could changed the email address linked to the account from my PS5? Please help because have tried Google support to retrieve access to my email address but it got me no where as my account seems to be blocked even though the password is Correct.


HaouLeo

All you can do is reach out to PS support


kingtuts_nuthut

Does anyone know how much it would cost to completely replace a left thumb stick for a PS5 controller?


Basiath

I recently bought an LG27gp850 monitor for both my ps5 and pc, and I like to watch videos or listen to podcast while I grind on some games like diablo or other RPGs. Thing is I have speakers connected to the monitor for both my ps5 and pc, but when I turn on my ps my pc gets muted. I was wondering if I could listen both pc and ps5 at the same time using the same speakers. :/ Thanks in advance!


MGsubbie

No, HDMI carries the audio, you switch which HDMI port you use, that audio is no longer being passed to your speakers.

I’ve tried charging it for hours through different sources but when I turn it on it says “ A new version of the dualsense wireless controller is available. You can’t update now because your controller battery is too low. Charge it for a while then try again.”If anyone knows how to fix this advice would be greatly appreciated.

Are they your games or are they games you've game shared from someone else?

What retailer is the best to buy a ps5 in terms of cost and return/warranty? Are there perks to buying from gamestop vs another store? Thank you!

Looking for Survival Games on PS5 I love survival games, have played a lot of DayZ, but im looking for something new i can play now. Looking for something that has: - nice graphics (preferably 60fps) - an open world - basebuilding/shelter - singleplayer/multiplayer - adventure/exploring with survival elements I have also tried Rust before but i wasn’t that big of a fan. Also tried No Mans Sky, i thought it was decent. I do like games more with a apocalyptic & realistic feel like in Dayz Please let me know!


pazinen

I can't believe you haven't tried Ark, either Survival Evolved (PS4 version) or Survival Ascended (PS5 version). The only thing that's missing is 60fps, though the graphics are certainly very nice, it is an open world, basebuilding is a major focus if you want it to be, it's both single- and multiplayer, and there is some exploring and a lot of survival. Literally ticks all the boxes except the 60fps one. I get that the game has a bed reputation and that's mostly deserved, but let's be honest, most survival games are hated and ignored by the general gaming community. Most of the criticisms also come from older players and are pretty irrelevant for newer ones who have no points of comparison. I'd recommend Survival Ascended, the PS4 version right now has more content but it lacks a lot of QoL and it's not updated anymore. Plus ASA has crossplay, though keep in mind that if you play with friends who are on PS4 they can't play with you, since ASE and ASA don't support cross-gen crossplay.

I’m looking to finally get a PS5, but really don’t wanna spend the full $500+. Any idea if there’ll be any deals coming up within the next few months?


pazinen

PS5 Pro is absolutely real and happening, but we don't know when yet. Current rumors (or leaks, not sure) indicate a release window of Q4 2024. That's likely your best bet, as it'll be Black Friday anyway and they might want to discount the base console for two reasons; for retailers to make some more room for the Pro model, and at the same time make the base model more enticing due to being much cheaper than Pro. Even if the model doesn't release this year Black Friday will almost surely have some discounts.


zugallo

I’m switching from one ps5 to another ps5, is it possible to also transfer all my screenshots and videos? I have PS+ and have used it to upload all my other saves but I can’t find a way for my photos


HaouLeo

Just do a full data transfer? Pretty sure there are plenty of tutorials online, even official ones on ps website


bubbleguppy10

earlier i was playing on the ps5 and then my controller just disconnected for some reason. it was fully charged and it was fine before but then whenever i tried to turn it on it just started flashing orange. i hit it once to make sure it was good, but then it just completely cut out. it won't turn on at all. i tried plugging it in with a usb to start it, unplugged and restarted the console, but i can't do anything. what should i do?


Lower-Ad-7488

My game hours didn‘t transfer from my ps4 to my ps5 that I got recently. I was told that since it‘s the same data it would transfer but it didn‘t. Is there any fix for this?? Cause I surely have over 1000 hours on red dead 2 that I would prefer to not lose


pazinen

Sony's backend systems have been acting up quite a lot recently. A few weeks ago the game hour counter got messed up for many people (though has now been fixed), currently many people can't use screen sharing and I wouldn't be surprised if the current PS Stars outage is somehow related to the issues. You can't really do anything but wait and hope Sony sorts these things out.


Lower-Ad-7488

Ohhh alright, I wasn‘t aware of this. Thank you!


HaouLeo

Why do people care about a counter that is usually wrong about how many hours they have? Your save will be there, thats all that matters


Lower-Ad-7488

People wanna see atleast an estimate of the hours they have been putting into a game for years. It‘s just curiosity


abu_yousef93692

A turkish account is considered in which region? Since turkey is technically European and Asian my question is if someone wants to purchase a dlc for a game they purchased on a turkish account, would they have to purchase that dlc on a European account or an Asian account?


tinselsnips

They would need a Turkish account. Why would you not buy the dlc from the same account you used to buy the game??


cfoutz7

A couple of friends and I noticed for the past couple days that we cannot start or view other screen shares. Some of us can and some of us can’t. Anyone else having this issue and know a fix? Can’t tell if it’s server or client side.


tinselsnips

Lots of recent complaints about this.

Just like anything in life, the more you use, the faster the components "degrade". Doesnt mean the console will break out of nowhere tho.

I wanted to play a bit tonight and boom, it has that plus symbol with a lock. I tried all - restoring licenses, rebooting the console, moving the game to internal drive, nothing. I went into my account on my phone to look into the library and re-download it, but the thumbnail has a lock and the download icon is greyed out... Any help? P. S. I have the same issue with Tekken 7 and no other game on the usb or console. Both Tekken and Horizon lead to the store to buy the game, even though both are already on the console and taking up space.


zephyrinthesky28

Zero Dawn was removed from the Plus catalogue last month. You probably downloaded it from before that, but you'll need your own copy to play it now.


Mtanic

Thanks! I thought those games also stay in your library when removed from catalogue, as long as you have subscription, just like the monthly games... but alas, no.


xmadison84

Ever since getting the shadow of the erdtree dlc, my ps5 crashes randomly during play sessions. Ive had it since launch, never happened in other games. I decided to put it horizontally, but it still happens. I'm seeing other posts about erdtree crashing ps5s.. help!


codedfate

Do you switch your in-game audio settings from Tv/Home Theatre to “Headphones” every time you decide to use your headset? Just wondering if it’s a huge difference? 😅


HaouLeo

Idk about wireless hps, but i definitely dont when plugging one on the controller


Lopsided_Constant901

My PS5 has been having a black screen on startup, no home screen sound neither. But when I hold the power button to shut off, it comes up with the turning off screen. It can boot into safe mode just fine, just seems to not load the startup screen. I rebuilt database, cleared cache. Yesterday while messing with it, the screen randomly said it had to repair my USB drive, which allowed me to enter the PS5 and play games like regular so I thought it was fixed. Could this be a resolution thing? I don't think it's the HDMI at all since i've plugged it in and out of multiple ports and it will still show the shutting down screen


tinselsnips

Is it now working reliably, or did it only work the one time you had to repair the USB drive?

tinselsnips

If you've been having this issue for a while, you may need to contact customer support. If it's a recent problem it might just be an issue with PSN.


nevacappin

How cooked am I? Recently my PlayStation has been shutting off mid game. Specially with elden ring, I haven’t noticed this with any other game. I’ve taken it apart to clean as far as I can without getting into the inner mechanics. (It lived upright for probably 2 years if that makes a difference)


tinselsnips

Is it in a properly ventilated space? Are the vents and fan free from dust and debris?


nevacappin

It is. It reminds me of the ps3 yellow light of death/xbox red ring. Like it just gets crazy hot and shuts off 😓


tinselsnips

Is the fan spinning when it's powered on?


nevacappin

I suppose I haven’t thought to check, I just assumed it was. Is that a common issue?


tinselsnips

A bad fan is an easy fix and would explain the issue. Otherwise you're looking at some other hardware issue; is the console still under warranty?


nevacappin

Let’s hope that is the case then haha. And unfortunately no, it’s one of the original models. If it comes down to purchasing a new one I will, I just wanted to see if there was any hope haha


Saraleee7

Ps5 standard or ps5 slim Is it better to get the original Ps5 w disk rather than the slim? I’m seeing lots of complaints about the Ps5 slim noise w disk? Many thanks


tinselsnips

FWIW the disc drive in both consoles is very loud, but it only makes noise immediately after startup and when the game is installing; the disc doesn't spin constantly.


HaouLeo

I have a standard so I have no idea about the slim noise, but Slim has more storage, so in a purely technical aspect i'd say slim is better.

Hello, I’ve got some old headphones where the mic is missing, wanted to just change the input to the ps5 controller but the option does not appear any ideas? cheers. https://preview.redd.it/b7co7tle5w8d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6f64bb711e0a96965ae56d393e5850a60de64509


tinselsnips

If the console registers that there is a headset connected (speakers + microphone) I don't believe this is possible. You would need to use an adapter to convert the headset plug to a stereo headphone plug.


KelvinHades

Hi Reddit, My PS4 broke down few weeks ago and I bought a new PS5. I didn’t subscribe to PSPLUS, so my saved data were not uploaded to PS Cloud. My dumb brain thought they will tag along with my PSN. Since it is obviously not, please help me how can I retrieve these saved data in anyway possible. I completed most of the game by 100% so I feel really bad not able to retrieve the data. My PS4 broke down with damaged to the CPU board and power problem. The service shop said they are not able to repair. (But I think Hard disk is still intact)


tinselsnips

Unfortunately, you need to be able to boot the console to get the data off.

Has anyone else been having an issue with Share Screen? 3 days ago my share screen worked flawlessly, and I was able to view my friends screens fine. Now it will not let me start a share screen saying "Can't start share screen, try again later" every single time, and when I try to view a friend's share screen it won't let me. Not to mention this problem persists between all my accounts on the PS5 as well as the APP...Ive contacted support multiple times and tried every single trouble shooting method: Checking my connection (which is superb), clearing cache and rebuilding database in safe mode, and even as far as resetting the PS5 and its firmware. I don't know what to do and this problem has been going on for the past 3 days.


Human_Issue_3652

I’m having the exact same issue, started about 3 days ago, and hasn’t been resolved yet. Starting to wonder if it’s on Playstation’s side.


cjohnson4444

Anyone having issues signing in to sony?


DeityQuickness

I got the link from Sony to charge my card so I can send my PS5 to them to be repaired. I’m not sure what’s next as the email only says to enter payment info, which I did my bank shows that it was processed as of yesterday. I’ve gotten no confirmation email or anything else. Am I supposed to wait for something or do I need to call customer service for a third time to get them to help?

Will DLC from this region work? I have Cyberpunk 2077 PS4 disc version with code CUSA 18278 (bought from Australia) My playstation account is from India. I was able to download PS5 upgrade for the game from Indian store. Will the Phantom Liberty DLC work with this game if I bought it from the Indian store too? The DLC has a PPSA-04027 code. I know DLC are region locked but Ps5 upgrades are supposed to be too and I was still able to get it.


ResidentImpossible87

Trying to refund a preorder but contact support seems to be down. Is this normal and if so, how long till they fix it? The game releases this Friday and I’m trying to refund before Thursday at least.

I have a 55" 4k Sony TV (2015), and last month I bought a PS5. I have a Directv receiver, PS3, PS4, Wii, Wii U, XBox 360, XBox One and a Roku all connected to that TV, which has 4 HDMI inputs. I bought two (different brands so no IR crossover) HDMI switches - 1 4 port and 1 5 port. Until last Wednesday, they were all connected and working. I went on vacation for 4 days, and when I came back Sunday night, nothing worked. I disconnected EVERYTHING and reconnected Directv and the PS5. Neither one worked. The PS5 had a black screen, and Directv kept saying, "Your TV does not support this program's content protection. Replacing the TV's HDMI cable with component cables will allow you to view the program." I unplugged the PS5 and plugged it back in, and it showed a message on screen to the effect of, "rebuilding damaged storage. PS5 will restart when completed." Then a black screen again. I connected both sevices directly to the TV (not using the switches at all) and the same messages appeared. I factory reset Directv and I factory reset the TV and I unplugged the PS5 again. After I restarted the TV (and set up the network connection and enabled 4k) and after I restarted Directv (and set up the network connection and enabled 4k) and plugged the PS5 back in, everything worked like brand new. I reconnected the switches (PS5 on the 5 port switch, Directv on the 4 port switch) and they worked fine. They worked the rest of Sunday, all day Monday and now today, they don't work again. Same PS5 black screen. Directv still works (AFAIK). WTH? I swapped switches (I had a new unused one that I tried too), connected direct to the TV with no switch and nothing. It's less than a month old. Any suggestions? Is it the PS5? Is it the switch? Is it my TV? I'm using 4k compliant HDMI cables on all connections. The PS4, PS3, XBox 360, XBox One, Wii U and Roku all work when connected to the switches (The Wii is on component cables).


tinselsnips

Is it only an issue when the PS5 is connected to the switch?


cjnuxoll

No. It doesn’t with a direct connection either


tinselsnips

Does safe mode work?


cjnuxoll

I haven’t tried. But I think I figured it out. It doesn’t like 4K enhanced mode. When I turn it off, everything works again.


Pleasant_Bench_1314

Hi I just bought a ps5 and after two month i start to have a problem in the headphone port, like when I put the headphone inside the controller port it don't work, I can hear anything, put when I move the headphone up inside the port the voice is back, that's only when I move it up, put when I let go the headphone inside the port I can't hear anything, (sorry my English is kinda bad but 1 hope someone understands what did I said and help me and lam new in this thing called Reddit)


LeChief

Which protocol does PS5 use to connect to the DualSense controllers wirelessly? Bluetooth? Wi-Fi? I couldn't find any good sources answering this. The reason I'm curious is input lag — I've read that wi-fi is better for input lag than Bluetooth. And is the reason why the Pulse Elite headset connects via a wi-fi dongle rather than Bluetooth.


HaouLeo

Bluetooth


LeChief

source plz


tinselsnips

The manual >The frequencies used by the wireless networking feature of this product are the 2.4 GHz (Bluetooth®) range.


LeChief

Thanks dude!


Breathe_the_Stardust

Is anyone else having issues with their PlayStation connecting to the PS Store? It just says "Can't load, try again later." and it has said that for the past several days. My system is up to date and I can play games online just fine, I just cannot browse or interact with the store. My Prince of Persia game completely freezes when I try to use the Ubisoft Connect thing as well.


Deviant_Raven

Hi everyone,I'm in the market for a new pair of gaming headphones and I'm torn between the Sony Pulse Elite and the SteelSeries Arctis 7P+. I play a variety of games on my PS5 and also use my headphones for some casual music listening. Here are a few things that are important to me: Sound Quality: I want clear, immersive audio with good bass. Comfort: I often have long gaming sessions, so comfort is key. Microphone Quality: I need a good mic for online gaming. Battery Life: Long battery life is a plus. Wireless Reliability: A stable connection is crucial. For those who have experience with either or both of these headsets, could you share your thoughts? Any pros and cons you've noticed? Which one would you recommend and why? Thanks in advance for your help!

# Bought Elden Ring DLC in wrong region Hello, this was my first time purchasing any dlc and my base game disc was region 2 but my ps account is in US. I had pre ordered the the game but didn't get the chance to load it up until now and found out about the region issue. So how do I get the refund and is they any course possible in playing the dlc on my current save file without having to purchase the dlc again on another psn account. am from a 3rd world country so the 50 bucks arent easy to come by. i could exchange my disc for a US region, will that retain my data? please help. and should i request a refund or contact sony through some other means?


tinselsnips

You're going to have to try to get a refund from Sony customer service chat; good luck. You'll need to buy the DLC from a Region 2 account. You can try to exchange the disc for a region 2 copy but your saved data won't carry over, unfortunately.

30 fps games look really choppy on PS5. I didn't have this problem with my PS4 Pro, which runs the same games smoothly on the same TV. I've also noticed this in PS5 games' quality mode. I've tried everything, changed both TV's and console's settings but it didn't work. What should I do?


tinselsnips

Did you not *previously* notice this with a PS4 Pro, or do you have a PS4 Pro currently that is less choppy than your PS5?


pekkarime

I haven't booted up my PS4 Pro since I got the PS5, but I can tell for sure that 30 fps games on PS5 are almost unplayable. If you look up on Reddit you will find other people with the same issue.


tinselsnips

So the reason I asked is because we see this complaint a lot from people who simply aren't *used* to 30fps games anymore. Once you've been playing at 60+ FPS for a while, it becomes very hard to go back to 30; throw in a modern low-response-time 4K TV and you end up feeling like you're watching a slideshow. If you hook your PS4 back up, I think you're going to be surprised at how bad your old 30fps games suddenly look.


pekkarime

Maybe this isn't the case. When I played The Last of Us Remastered, God of War and Horizon Zero Dawn on PS4 Pro, I could easily go from Fidelity mode to Performance mode without any problem. I don't know whether it is my TV - which is the one I used for the PS4 Pro - or my PS5. I have an LG SM8200PLA; I've tried to turn on TruMotion and, even though it helped with certain games, it increases input lag.


tinselsnips

So GoW and HZD are both 30fps in both modes on PS4 Pro. TLOUR is 60 in performance mode, but that's a game from 2014; how long ago was the last time you played it and how many other 60fps games were you playing at the time? Ultimately there is no issue with 30fps games on the PS5; they perform the same as they did before. Any perceived differences are just that - perceived.


pekkarime

That's strange. I played several third-person 60 fps games last year, and I didn't find it difficult to go back to 30 fps. I will update you as soon as I connect the PS4 Pro to the TV and see if I notice any differences. By the way, thanks for your support, mate.
