So i'm guessing we shouldn't expect a similar map for county to county restoration then?? :pac:

of course not mister thanks whore...a european country to country restoration map would be more logical

johnmcdnl

does the 1 month PSN Plus start from when we get it back or is it when we decide to activate it...

Is the key formatted to FAT32.
Is the folder structure on your memory key: PS3>UPDATE>PS3UPDAT.PUP
Go to system update then once you have done the above and select update via storage media.

Create folders PS3>UPDATE>then put the file in this folder

Desire.

Get in! :pac:

I hope it's back online for when I get home after the Liverpool match. Though there goes any chance of me studying for my exams.

All youve done is update the firmware. PSN is still down. You have to wait until PSN is back up to change your password. That might be today or tomorrow apparently.

lol i kinda expected someone to reply with your county by county post i should have mentioned i meant for europe lol

keithc83

Well if they did it for the US states then a map for Europe really should be expected.

I cant even get onto the EU PS blog site, can load up the US one with the map no bother, but the EU page says the server wont send data, hopefully thats them putting up a map.

I'm gonna be staring at that map the rest of the night...:cool:

Your surprised Europe is getting shafted? I'm not, Europe's constantly getting the short end of the stick from Sony even though we have a much larger install base of PS3s than the US.

Update != PSN.

PS Europe must be too busy watching re-runs of the Eurovision.

Not my joke.

Just loaded up Battlefield and it synched my trophies.....I'm sure that didn't happen yesterday, but maybe it did and I'm losing my mind. Still no sign-in though.

Its only getting the PS3's ready for when PSN goes live. Europe is not back yet but should be later today and Ireland will probably be one of the last of those countries to come back.

I had so much false hope

keithc83

They will be announcing on http://twitter.com/#!/PLAYSTATIONEU when each territory comes back online. It will be back later so only a few hours at most to go now!

TheInquisitor

The UK is not back yet anyway!

I would have preferred if they had said nothing and released no update until they were closer to having PSN online in all countries. No update from SCEE since 3pm... Total BS.

Guys, calm down. You waited a month. You can wait a few hours. A watched pot never boils
