I think Sony shut down every store by region and then will re-open it one region/country at a time when they fix it cause as of 7:00PM PST (In Canada), I get the following message:

"This service is not available in your country/region"

Although I am signed in and have access to online multiplayer, etc. so hopefully they find out what happened to the store asap, cause I wanna play me some Outlast :D

trancefreak3726d ago

Yeah it said maintenance undergoing and now I am getting this is not available in you region message.

The broadcasting features state the same and the internet browser has an intermittent network issue for me.

thorstein3726d ago

I got it too, but then patiently waited and the store was connected. I got Outlast and that had the "license" problem. Waited that out and it is fine now.

Utalkin2me3726d ago

Go into setting and select PSn and select activate PS4 then back into setting and select restore licenses. And it works perfectly.

HyperBear3726d ago

I also found another thing that was odd. Apparently the 1.6 firmware also added some sort of WiFi hotspot connection by mistake.

If any of you have a tablet, smartphone, computer or anything with wifi, refresh your available connections under wifi/wireless settings, and look for a connection named "PS4-###EEBF#####". Cause I dunno bout you guys, but maybe Sony inadvertently turned all our PS4's into a WiFi hotspot/extender for our networks???

Cause now I've got a PS4 WiFi hotspot connection, that uses WPA2 security and I have no way of connecting to it cause I don't know the password (Cause it's not my router/network SSID password or my PSN password)...

Anyone else find this strange PS4 hotspot within your devices & networks?

DeadMansHand3726d ago (Edited 3726d ago )

For anyone having the "license" problem, simply go to settings>psn>restore licenses>restore all. Takes about 5 seconds then works great after that.

@HyperBear

yes i notice the samething on my laptop,PS4-###EEBF#####, but mines different numbers and letters, have no idea how to connect to it though

thorstein3726d ago

Apparently 2 people disagree that I waited patiently. Hmmm... how did I wait then?

The licenses will catch up or you can do the renew licenses under settings.

Same thing is happening to me, and I'm in the U.S. To be honest, it's no biggie because if your looking to download "OutLast" or any other games and you have the PSN app on your phone, you can have it downloaded to your system.

@WhatchaTalkinBout @HyperBear

This has been there since day one. It's how Remote Play connects to the console. It isn't meant for other devices other than the Vita. If I'm correct the PS3 did the same thing when Remote Play was activated. Every console will have a slightly different name.

xBigxBossx3726d ago

Just be a G. DL the playstation app. Then DL outlast to your ps4 via the app. And you bypass this issue.

I had to log into PSN through my laptop to start the Outlast download. It's moving really slow, like 2hrs to download 150 MB slow.

DarkHeroZX3726d ago

I just downloaded outlast but I still can't play it because I can't activate the license...... Oh well, I guess I'll just play warframe.

user14394143726d ago

I can't wait to play Outlast XoXo. The pc gameplay I saw looked very good.

Eonjay3726d ago

I just started to play it. That game is scary as hell!!!

cee7733726d ago (Edited 3726d ago )

Go to the settings and restore licenses and Oulast should work fine.

Worked for me.

Ashlen3726d ago

Hey, thanks, worked for me too, didn't know I could do that.

thorstein3726d ago

Go to settings>PSN>Restore Licences>Restore.

DarkHeroZX3726d ago

Damn I'm 30 minutes in and I I already ruined some nice underwear.

DeadMansHand3726d ago (Edited 3726d ago )

Settings>psn>restore licenses.

ovnipc3726d ago

Warframe such a money hungry game, the game its cool but to be able to get some cool stuff force you to pay or play waYyyy to many hours.

captainexplosion3726d ago

Yeah, I cant get into the PlayStation Store either.

BitbyDeath3726d ago

Think this is more outlast related than firmware. Millions trying to access the store to download it. Sony need to up their server count.

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5063d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905063d ago (Edited 5063d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5063d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5063d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495063d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5063d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5063d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
