I find that downloads go much MUCH faster if after you start them, knock the Ps4 into rest mode.

Anyone else have UPC and the speed on the PS4 is brutal? I'm getting 20 on the PS4 and 200 on the PC.

Kinda, the downloads go very fast 30-40Mbps for me, maybe they are on a different server then the ps4 network test is pinging as that tells me 20-25Mbps.

It does state on the PS4 when you do a speed test that they are just estimates and may not be accurate at all.

Port forwarding makes no difference,on the UPC Horizon box anyway.

200mb line and the max ive ever seen is 4.5mb/s down. PS4 is wired and all ports are forwarded.

4mb/s is not the worst in the world but i do usually have to start/stop the download a few times to get that speed. And the speed has a tendancy to slow to a crawl after half an hour.

On PC,same Horizon box router and ports forwarded for whatever client ie Steam,Origin, GoG etc its usually between 10 and 20mb/s,with no need for start/stops etc.

For a paid service its not great,if i could get a consistent 4mb and not have to keep checking if it had slowed id be pretty happy,but alas thats not the case for me anyway.

Downloading inFamous First light since 11 thismorning, only 9 hours left. It's 6 gigs! The absolute state of it.

Xenji · 14-06-2015 06:44PM

Sleeping Dogs took me just over 2 hours today on a 24mb line, 16 gig download, its a steal for €12.99.

Jerichoholic · 14-06-2015 06:57PM

Sleeping Dogs is a fine game, hope they have a proper sequel on the way. Triad Wars is a bit meh.

Is it tomorrow we should find out about next month's games?
Out am I a week early?

EoinMcLovin · 23-06-2015 06:50PM

It's usually the last Wednesday of the month that they are announced so it should be tomorrow or Thursday

ShaneU · 23-06-2015 06:54PM

Driveclub PS+ edition appeared on the U.S. store early, so expect that next month

Got tired of waiting months ago and bought it. Haven't regretted it for a single second. Gets constant support, updates, looks beautiful, and it's a lot of fun to play. Sure, it's not a serious racer, but I can happily sit down with it for a ten minute fix and enjoy it to bits. I'd highly recommend it with or without the PS+ edition.

It'll probably be next Wednesday because the games won't go live here until the 8th.

Yeah you're right as its usually the first Tuesday of the month they are released in America so next week they will be announced

Better late than never, I still dont own it and dont fancy paying 20 quid for it so free is always good

Captain Chaos · 24-06-2015 02:28PM

Suppose at least it won't take up a Plus game slot next week thankfully.

tok9 · 24-06-2015 03:28PM

I just hope the bloody servers handle it. It'll be another serious embarrassment if it breaks again.

I've had a load of fun with the game itself and I reckon people will pick it up after playing the free version.

Christy Browne · 24-06-2015 10:01PM

After such a long wait it should really be the full version in the Instant Game Collection

The servers still can't. The version out today will not have online abilites from the start. Evolution will then start rolling out staggered waves of updates to random users to enable online play so the servers can load up in scale and not a sudden mad rush.

Still a bit of a joke after all this time.

tok9 · 25-06-2015 07:42AM

Considering how online has gone, I don't think that's a bad idea.

brianregan09 · 25-06-2015 04:14PM

driveclub up yet can't find it ?

DeclanRe · 25-06-2015 04:15PM

Is Driveclub+ worth downloading?

+1 I hope it's not just the "Free Game Trial" not sure if that was always a selection but I only noticed it... Showing up as €24.99 for the game for me anyways..

Tomagotchye · 25-06-2015 05:49PM

Just crashed in from work looking for some crashing with cars...it's not appearing at all for me?

Pretty sure it actually is the FULL GAME TRIAL ... So go search for the Driveclub PS+ version then theres a price of €24.99 and below it a FULL GAME TRIAL click that and download the game... Makes no bloody sense but somehow people on other forums are doing the same thing...
