PS4 Update 2.50: codenamed “Yukimura”

#1

Check out some of the other highly requested, new features and changes coming soon in “Yukimura”:

  • Sub-account to master account upgrade: Users with a sub-account will now be able to upgrade to a master account directly from their PS4 when they turn 18, removing restrictions for chat, enabling users to fund their own wallet, make purchases and more. Currently, users can upgrade their sub-accounts online.
  • Facebook friend search: Gamers globally have jumped into PS4 as a redefined social gaming experience and connecting with friends over the network is a huge part of what makes the PS4 community so special. PlayStation now lets you go even bigger by connecting with your Facebook friends on PS4 using your linked account. Search for Facebook friends who are PSN members and build on the foundation of Friends you already have in your list.
  • Remote Play & Share Play at 60 fps: The ability to customise the frame rate of Remote Play and Share Play will be added with “Yukimura”. Play to your bandwidth strengths and use this option to stream gameplay at 60 or 30 fps when using Remote Play or Share Play.
  • Accessibility Options: “Yukimura” introduces a wide variety of options to make the PS4 entertainment experience even more accessible. Options include text to speech, enlarged text, bolder fonts, higher contrast UI, zoom for displayed pictures, invert colours on screen and more. Users will also be able to reassign buttons for DUALSHOCK 4, making it easier for users with limited manual dexterity or limited reach and strength to play.
  • Trophy Improvements: We have received a tonne of feedback to improve Trophies. In “Yukimura”, a screenshot will automatically be captured at the moment a Trophy is earned, making it easier than ever for you to share your greatest gaming moments with your friends. We’re also adding more sorting options along with the new ability to remove games from the Trophy list that have 0% completion.
  • Share Video Clips to Dailymotion: When sharing standout PS4 moments via the Share button on DualShock 4, “Yukimura” will allow players to upload directly to Dailymotion.

Dude 60fps remoteplay is pretty awesome.

#4

You’re adorable.

Bandwidth.

#5

Yeah, playing on your own LAN should have no issues streaming 60fps.

Baka

You must have great internet then I think. That sounds like a tall order for everyone else.

Your ISP bandwidth has no bearing on your in-home (LAN) network. The connection from my ps3 in my bedroom has as much bandwidth as the Ethernet cable can carry from my (theoretical) ps4 downstairs.

I guess it depends on your router and your setup, but anyone with half way decent and reasonably up to date home equipment should have no problem.

Okay, but this is remote play. You’re streaming out and receiving the stream on the same line, and it’s gonna get shittier the further you are from your router.

And also 60fps.

I’ll try it when it comes out but I’m skeptical.

You can remote play a ps3 to a ps3, right? Right now I’ve only got two of those, lol. Might at least give it a shot to see how well it works.

#12

…and still no username change feature.

Sorry BluntdrunkxX420, you’ll just have to keep waiting.
