Forums - Sony Discussion - Sony’s biggest PS4 update yet has been a complete disaster - BGR

"The latest firmware update for the PS4 has been a long time coming, but now that it’s available, most users are probably wishing that Sony had spent more time working out the kinks. Shortly after version 2.0 went live last Friday, reports began to spread that the newly dubbed Rest Mode (taking the place of Standby Mode) was putting PS4 consoles into such a deep sleep that they couldn’t be woken up."

ehhh...Complete disaster? The headline is such a hyperbolic statement...



Why would it do that for? That update has some issues that need to be resolved immediately.



Eh? Is this legit? Cause that sounds pretty bad

Yes. My ps4 freezes every time i put it to rest (which is default mode for most of people). What's worse, it doesn't even really put to rest - you can hear that it's still working. Sometimes you can force power-off  it by power button, sometimes you have to plug off the power (!). 

 

That's tragedy for people that are not technical. The only solution for now for those affected is to completly turn off console instead of using rest mode.
