Just after turning it off

Shure isn't it typical! I'll probably rage quit in a few mins after a few network errors anyway

The charge on the controllers is so crap

It sure is. Even if you turn off the speaker and rumble, it still sucks. It's a pity you cannot turn off the pointless light at the back, I'm sure that eats the charge too.

Yup, I had to get a second one just so I could constantly have one on charge... And I'm not even playing as much as some people.

TacoMan

Only positive is they charge back up pretty fast. But it is a joke, my PS3 controller would last a couple of days without needing a charge, the ps4 one needs a charge every hour and a half.

If you f**k the controller of the floor enough times the light will eventually stop working. Least it did for me

Just get a longer charge cable, worked wonders for me! I also have it set to turn off after a while if I'm not using it, makes a difference.

I think the lights are LED's, wouldn't make much difference to the charge.

More the rumble/touchpad/speaker would eat more.


I connect the USB cable into the laptop beside me and charge it while I play.

Same as I got a 6ft cable and it's amazeballs... Well worth the investment of €2.99

It's very easy to disconnect the light. Can be done in five minutes

I done it with one of my controllers. It doesn't make much of a difference to battery life though

Savage Tyrant

Wireless controllers are great... When you wire them in.

That guy's accent is great!

Why doesn't he just put down the camera, so he can use both hands? :pac:

Anyone else have trouble getting on online I was online for about 2min and I can't get on at all now I was on with a few others I think they had the same problem as I did but I'm not sure about them

stuartmurphy87

You can replace the battery for a different one that gives you a lot more life. It's supposed to last longer than ps3 ones when fitted. Can't remember the website I saw it on though.

The rumble is the main culprit for using battery apparently.

Had same problem earlier on jus hope it doesn't end up happening tomorrow

Frankie5Angels

Everyone is gonna be driven demented by servers tomorrow, guaranteed. You're all far better leaving it until 12.30 next Wednesday and joining me in getting that 10m bonus. :cool:

crunchie44

any idea what time the update will be released tomorrow

Savage Tyrant

I was telling my brother in law that you could do the Heists back to back over 8 hours and get a bonus.... The wife muttered something along the lines of "he will in his fûck play games for 8 hours while I run around after the kids"

I'm pretty sure I'll never get the 10m bonus anyway...

B_Sharp

Anyone know if the heists update is going to improve the connection issues? It's pretty much unplayable for me on next-gen like.

Max Mafioso

So my Xbox has told me its time for an update, thought it might have had something to do with Heists but it's only 254mb

Iv had this booked a while now. Her night with the new born, Xbox moved to big screen downstairs, cans got, Mic dusted off. That's tomo sorted.

Connection tonight is a farce...

Social club account says I'm a level 58 in the crew. I can put the crew logo on a t-shirt and clothes, but not on the cars. Nor can I buy masks which are unlocked at Crew level 20-something.

This happen anyone else?

Zero-Cool

Yeah mine goes crazy. Full rank one day, rank 1 the next. Will be in around an hour to do some heist prepping.

The crew ranks are different between the consoles, if that makes any difference to you?

I'm 80 on PS3, but 32 on PS4

Yeah, I was way higher on the 360 than 58, but it seems to be resetting to 1 on the PS4 for no apparent reason. It also seemed to switch me over to PS3 on social club earlier, but I never played it on PS3

That social club has always been less than user friendly to say the least

Anybody know if heists have gone live yet
