Forums - Sony - Sony's DualShock 4 light bar can't be turned off to save battery

Some people are acting very defensive for some reason.

I don't think that this is an issue at all.

Only defensive?

“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

I don't see how this isn't considered an annoyance because it blatantly will be. You guys do know its ok to admit the tiniest negative don't you. Its really not a deal breaker though and they could probably change it in a later revision if people do complain.

By the way, to the query regarding playing in the dark, I game on a projector and my room is always blacked out but I don't consider this a problem giving the light bleed I get from my screen anyway.


and why will it "blatantly" be an annoyance?

You think a useless light thats always on is not an annoyance, ok....

Surely more annoying than three nice useful red quarter-of-ring lights!!!

Wow, 15 pages of a LED light not going out. What's wrong with you people?

Sony should release a perpetual charging controller to save money.



Hmm, pie.
