Yea for sure. Im still working on my batting. Been spending a ton of time in the practice modes. My timing is just all messed up haha. Might have to tweak some of the sliders a bit.

 

[eternalinferno]

I've always been pretty good with pitching but online yea my batting was ok. Still pitched well enough to win most of the time though, last time I played online I think I had like a 48-20 something win/loss record. Most of those losses were from my brother in law who rakes in this game. I spend most of my time in road to the show mode, it's just so addictive. It was wonderful news to hear that our careers can now carry over from one game to the next.

Yea that's a really cool feature. I haven't tried RTTS yet as I'm primarily a franchise guy. I usually just create a player and place him on a team, that way I can do the whole "be a superstar" thing while maintaining control over the whole originization. I was suuuuper bummed when I realized NBA 2K14 wouldn't let me do that.

Nice. That was one of the games I picked up with my PS4. Only played a bit of it tho as I can't seem to tear myself from MLB 2014

Just got my PS4! About to go get Infamous Second Son! t:

Welcome to PS4 rks

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Has anyone had any credit card issues with PSN? The other night Sony wouldn't accept my card so I had to just use paypal.

 

[TX85]

I used my card for music unlimited and had no problem

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Yea I'm not sure what was going on, it kept saying my card number was incorrect but when I checked my account I saw charges from PSN at 0.00 so it was going through, just wasn't adding any funds and iv used that card on my Xbox. Figured it was just the bank trying to protect me but I called them and they said they weren't blocking anything

 

[JaD]

I've had that issue before I believe, I think it just went away eventually. I think it was a PSN issue even though at the time when I posted it up some other people said there's were going through.

Nice! Welcome to the club! Whats your PSN ID?

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Can you use any head phones with the ps4 or just the included headset?

 

[JaD]

There's a few you can use. I use the Wireless Stereo Headset that came out for the PS3 but if you're talking about for the headphone jack in the controller, you can plug any pair of headphones into it.

 

[TX85]

I've talked about this before but damn I hate the U.I.'s set up with games across the screen with the other features,It just looks bad and not very convenient when you have to select stuff one by one in a row then down to get to what you want.

I'm all going all(well almost since since I still have AC IV on disc)digital starting next month and so an U.I.update soon would sure be nice if it puts the games in the library section instead just options to delete

yes. The layout of the UI needs some tweaking. needs better organization.

I thought the way they have it with the PS3 works pretty well.

although, instead of making the categories horizontal across the screen, they could make it a vertical Navigation/Category left sidebar. you scroll through that with Up/Down. Then each opens up with the content on the right side of the screen.

 

[JaD]

Hopefully they have the ability to have several different choices for a UI interface, similar to themes, like old school XMB (which I love) or new school.

Edit: This was supposed to be in the NBA thread, WTF!?

 

[DJ_KiDDvIcIOUs]

Well I just learned no matter if you have the disc or not it still takes up the same space. That's stupid. I guess I'm going to need to upgrade that HD sometime. Is it hard to do for anyone that has done it already? And would you have to put the old HD back in if you wanted to play certain games or could it be transferred over?

Are you sure about that with the digital copies vs. physical copy? I assumed there's at least a few gigs of a difference there somewhere.

It's incredibly easy to upgrade the HDD, I did it before I even turned my PS4 for the first time. All you do is slide off the shiny part and undo maybe 2 screws and pull out the old and pop in the new one. The only thing you need to worry about is backing up your save data which you can do by putting in a flash drive beforehand. I'm not exactly positive right now, but I'm assuming you can also back up through PS+ and the cloud? But if not, USB drive. I didn't need to since there was nothing on it. You also need to download whatever firmware the system is onto a flash drive from the official site as well before doing everything. Digital games and such you'll just have to redownload.

This isn't a bad place to get started if you want to put in a new HDD (Upgrade PS4 HDD, How to Replace a PS4 Hard Drive), I put in a 1.5TB drive in mine.

 

[DJ_KiDDvIcIOUs]

Sadly no difference, I looked at how much space the digital copies took up compared to what it said on the box for games I own and they are one and the same. Not too worried about it right now since I still have some 400+ gbs left on my HD but it sucks knowing in the not too distant future I'm going to have to swap out the HD

Kinda like the PS store!?

 

[JaD]

I wouldn't mind having it look like the PS Store.
