Anyone know where I'l get the best trade in credit for destiny? Just hasn't got the content to motivate me to play it right now.

Give cex a go. I think you will get around 40. They have the prices on their site. Hmv does a pretty good trade in price as well.

They have Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor for only £40.99 and i'm wondering will i get it by friday.

I picked super saver delivery for FIFA and I'm still waiting, maybe other deliveries might guarantee faster.

Did you not just get it digitally? Should be in your account section instantly.

Their customer support is great. They'll get back to you quickly, only problem is they aren't awake until you are asleep

playing fine for me. your internet connection could just be a bit slow atm?

Sorry, only seeing this now, I'm getting 40-50mb download so it's nothing got to do with that.
Videos are working fine from PS Store, Netflix is perfect, it's just the videos in the browser that won't play

Have you ever opened ports for your PS4?

Nodferatu · 01-10-2014 2:25am

Having sold my ps3 a year ago i FINALLY bought myself a ps4 recently. Got the white one with destiny bundle pack in gamestop for €400. Im back on the gaming scene :-).
I thought when ps4 was first announced it was free online etc!!! But i had to pay 50 quid on top for ps plus to do that. Bit annoying.

This thread is really gone to sh1t with people asking the same bloody questions day in-day out. There's a search bar, use it!

I agree, a FAQ thread would resolve most people's questions. US psn accounts etc a pre ordered games delivery thread?

I like to think of it as loads of games every month.

First of all apologies if this has been asked before!

I'm looking to replace the harddrive in the ps4 and I was wondering if theres anyway of backing up your save files. I know you can back them up using ps+ but the console has more than one user, only one of which has plus on their account.

I'm open to correction on this but no there is no way currently to backup your HD before you swap it.

You can save them on a FAT32 USB drive. I couldn't find any other way than having to export each game one by one though. Which is a pain if you've got quite a few.

Thanks for the responses guys, i'll have a look into it.

try flubit - I got a price of £32.80 for sbox one version (reduced from £37.00) and delivered to Parcelmotel. might be quicker than sending straight to rep Ireland.

Sephiroth_dude · 01-10-2014 10:20am

God damn the us psn store is soooo much better than Europe's, has a way more apps too.

Would that make a difference? I've no NAT issues or anything like that. I'm nearly sure that they did play at one stage, I think it's only the last few months that they won't.

Just to be clear it's game saves I'm talking about. Not the actual game install. As the other person who replied to you seemed to think it was the game you were talking about

I'm not entirely sure but it wouldn't hurt to give it a shot. It fixed a game issue I had. I can't remember the ports you need to open though.

hallo dare · 01-10-2014 10:41am

Ports that need forwarding.

TCP 80
TCP 443
TCP 5223
UDP 3478
UDP 3479
UDP 3658

Will I Amnt · 01-10-2014 10:59am

Is there an easy guide to port forwarding? I remember trying it years ago on PS3 and it frustrated the life out of me.

Find the IP address or your internet provider. Login to it and there should be an option for Port forwarding. Although maybe telstra are a bit more user friendly than back home.

If in doubt just google your provider and Port forwarding. Should be able to find an easy guide.

Give your PS a static IP address.

Login to your router and go to portforwarding.

Forward what port you wish relevant to the PS and click save.

Job done.

Don't know if it's easy, but it's a guide:

You may have a problem m8. I take it that you are with Meteor?! If that's the case i'm pretty sure they do not allow port forwarding, even though the device does have the option to.:rolleyes:

Best give them a call to see if this is still the case.
