To be fair Xbox One has kicked me from a few single player games when I've disconnected. Some next gen games just seem to be set up that way, as you're often playing single player but connected to their servers.
Gaming PlayStation 4 (Console)
- Thread starter Biscuit1871
- Start date
Guys need some help. My PS4, which was working perfectly fine last night won't progress past the startup screen into the operating system, it just makes the selection sound when I press X and that's it. The light on the PS4 is still white.
EDIT: It's also making two beeps when I shut the console down.

Appears to be back up an working.
You should have left it alone
People have reported that during the DDOS attack startup was taking longer than usual.You should have left it alone
Is it solved yet? I still can't get in unless I wait around 10 mins. At least it's progress though..
Apparently people are getting on PSN no problem.
No, I mean I can't get into the operating system. It's taking ages to progress from the startup screen. Sometimes it doesn't at all.
I can't log into psn. My ps4 is also making 2 bleeps when it turns off.
What's going on?
What's going on?
Disconnect it totally from the Internet.
Am I being hacked?
No idea. My PS4 seems fecked at the minute.
Turn off your router and try again.
Cheers mate, will try that.
I've switched it off. Don't want to take any risks.
If you can get to the settings menu, somewhere in there there is a checkbox to tell the PS4 not to connect to the Net. Then you can turn the router back on.
Yeah I did that mate and everything is fine, it started up instantly. You reckon it's a problem with my internet connection, or is it something to do with this PSN problem?
No, PSN is under a massive DDoS attack. Just wait until it comes back up.
Yeah just been reading up about it now. Lizard Squad? what are they, 12?
cnuts.
Are they just nailing Sony servers or is there risk of security to info and what not?

Jesus I hope not. Didn't a similar thing happen on the PS3 servers?
Yes. PSN was down for weeks on end.
It's not that, and this is affecting quite a bit of Sony, not just the PS4, PS3, VITA (PSN servers are the same for all three), Smartphone App, Web Store......
I did consider just using PSN cards at one point but I'm far too lazy.
The same group has targeted loads of sites recently, savages even took down Brazzers for a spell.
There is no hacking going on here.
cnuts
SOE too.
I read this too. Totally unacceptable! These little scrotes should be found, forced to watch sex in the city, from start to finish, on repeat, for at least 20 years.
Seems that some can now sign in. My VITA isn't having any of it.
Ok, VITA connected, but everything is shit slow.
VITA Store says it's "Undergoing Maintenance".

Seems back to normal speed, at least when viewing friends and messages.
I'm staying offline for now till I know it's alright for sure, been up and down a few times today.
So have Sony admitted a cyber attack yet or are they continuing to go with the resolving issues garbage?
There isn't a great deal they can do towards this.
It isn't even hacking. More like script kiddies found a program to spam it all with.
Yeah, but they are playing with fire. That Lizard tweeted about a bomb being on the president of SOE's plane, it's had to be diverted.
This is weird shit!
Man, these kids are going to be in some deep shit when they're caught.
