Dude my brother had to wait like 2 hours to play BF4 online the other night. Maybe we did something wrong but man was that annoying. |

A lot of people use the same password for everything. They could have fifty accounts, and their password for all of them is "123456." That's why the Sony rep says make sure your password is different than what you use elsewhere on the internet. However, if there was a breach at Sony, I'm sure we'll all hear about it soon enough. Interestingly though in the story, I didn't know this same thing happened with Xbox Live in 2011. Quote:
BF4 is kind of a clusterfuck right now on all of the systems. Bad enough that DICE has delayed future work for it to fix the problems. Might not be anything on your end. |

[QUOTE=n2oinferno;1375292]
I was referring to the download time, but yeah that's why im not rushing to go and get myself an X1. I have the xbox slim edition whatever and Its running perfectly well. Once the majority of people out there have the X1 or the first price drop is when I'll be getting mine. All I want is for now is Forza 5 and that can wait. |

Different games will have different install points, and it looks like they don't tell you ahead of time. Some games only let you play certain elements until the game is fully installed. LEGO Marvel is pretty straightforward and likely downloads and installs the engine and first level while the rest DLs in the background. Things like multiplayer maps and online content usually installs last. CoD Ghosts required 50% installed before being able to play. I'm just happy that games download and install at the same time, instead of PS3-style of downloading in full THEN installing.

The point was arguing over install times is silly. If anything, I would get rid of the disc medium entirely. The download and install of the game I got online was nearly instant. I'll probably buy and download all my games digitally from now on. In addition to speeding up access and install times, I won't have to fumble around with discs when I want to change games. They all have to full install anyway, so why even have a disc?

I'm a bit old-school, but I like "owning" the game on physical media even if its just to sit on the shelf. Same thing with music and movies. If I can't touch it, I don't feel like I truly "own" it.

This whole thing is not a big deal at all and should not sway anyone from purchasing one or the other. Just thought I'd mention it because cfusion stated he wasn't sure the PS4 did the same. Another thing worth mentioning is hard drive replacements. Most people know you can easily swap hard drives on the PS4 and get better performance going ssd, hybrid, or 7200rpm+ hard drives. They recently did a hard drive swap on the XboxOne and it gave absolutely no performance gains. Which seems very odd. |
