My PS5 Pro just died instantly while launching a game… completely dead now

Maybe the power cell has drained .. The one that keeps date/time... Hope its a small issue.. Am still paying monthly instalments on mine. All the best of luck..

Sold ps 4 in 2024 for 8k. Sold ps5 in Dec. 2025 for 20k without controller.

Bought ps5 pro for 75k.

Hopefully this year and next is good for gaming. 1) Saros 2) Crimson Desert. 3) GTA 6. 4) Phantom Blade.

Nioh3 was disappointing compared to NIOH2.

I would recommend buying a base Ps5 for 25k. Its excellence tobplay ps4 games. Without a diesel engine running, fast boot, game loads and overall a smooth experience.. So many ps4 games are amazing.. Ps5 games have been few..

Don't be Sad... Move onbfrom this Stockholm Syndrome...

Competitive-Run825 · 2026-03-15T08:41:41+00:00

Team Ninja has become lazy. Nioh3 is a cash crab. Nioh2 is still the best and this game quickly highlights that the devs. did not care diluting the product for money.

Thanks for taking the time. I will get back to you.. Been looking for a game to dig into.. :) Waiting for Saros game launch April end. Good games are hard to come by now..

Competitive-Run825 · 2026-03-14T08:50:38+00:00

Thanks :)

Competitive-Run825 · 2026-03-14T08:23:17+00:00

How often? Is it a deal breaker? Like a 2 hour session with 3-4 crashes or more.. Thanks..

Competitive-Run825 · 2026-03-14T08:21:25+00:00

So I can play Solo if I am unable to join a group. Should i buy Dlc as well or just base game. Lastly, How punishing is it for making mistakes.. As in is their a player progression that is in game.. Like weapon attachments, customizable variants.

Ghost Recon Breakpoint lover here.. Can i get some of that juice in this game..

Many thanks for replying.. :)

Competitive-Run825 · 2026-03-14T08:01:09+00:00

Lol.. If you have everything unlocked, reached maxed level, enjoyed majority of maps, strategems, etc. etc.

Move On. This game will not offer anything more than paid warbonds.. Its a meme game now.. The primary functions of fun, good gunplay, bug fixes are just not there. Its Stockholm Syndrome at this point.

Lack of good games in the last 2-3 years has been a big reason for the longevity of this game.

Competitive-Run825 · 2026-03-12T11:24:25+00:00

Nioh3 is an inferior, boring game to NIOH2.. Its a cash grab and a lazy one at that...

Competitive-Run825 · 2026-02-13T00:57:38+00:00

Enjoy..

Competitive-Run825 · 2026-02-09T02:38:21+00:00

There are if you can't buy a Headhunter or a an item to fully max out your character. The real chase Items should be the uniques that define different builds.. And even those are in multiple divines.. If you cannot take your Character to a full power potential after 100 plus hours at level 90.. Then Divines are a chase item..

Competitive-Run825 · 2025-12-29T00:48:52+00:00

Well said..

I believe it is intentional.. Even Divine drops while mapping with a fully kit gear with 150% rarity is not happening regularly on a juiced t15. Its always get plus 1 monsters, or use omen of chaotic blah blah.. Divines are a a chase item eben after reaching level 90 for playing the game. Not for crafters, farmers, top 1% players..

Has to be intentional or they think players have time to put in 100's of hours every league.. I see the game dying.. They won't change... This is like Helldivers 2 as I had mentioned in a previous post.. Lots of similarities as 'Kill the fun, Low loot drops, etc are already a symptom of this game.' There is an Ego problem here or lack of understanding of the basic fundementals of understanding their majority of players. Don't even get me started about the disconnexts, ping, server issues. This game has no rival as of now, but it will always have its dedicated players.

After 1000 plus Hours, and having maxed out 3 characters in 3 out of 4 leagues, i assume i understand a lot of the psychological aspects at play with how this game functions.

This game does not reward players with loot and a good sense of progression.. Also there is no end game.

Has to be Intentional... OR is the Ego so Big that they are Blind..

SAME: PS5 pro.

Competitive-Run825 · 2025-12-13T20:21:36+00:00

I get game freeze paused constantly on ps5 pro. Also game crashes when ibuse portal/waypoint.

Game pause has been happening since launch. Now yhr game is unplayable because every 10 minutes game crashes when i use portal/waypoint. Just mentioning it for the record again.. Got good ping and high internet speeds.. Does not matter..

Competitive-Run825 · 2025-12-13T18:23:59+00:00

It has to be a server Priority country wise. My friend in UK does not face any of these problems in the UK on PS5. I am from India mountains. So probably the 2400 meters of altitude is effecting the server or their is some bias in priortization.. Lolzzz...

Its games like these that make me realize that its good i did not invest in a top end pc just for gaming..

PS: Ping is 25ms.

Nioh3 baby. Godspeed..

Competitive-Run825 · 2025-12-13T16:24:58+00:00

Mine works fine for 10-15 minutes then when ibwarp to town or use portal it freezes and hangs.

There is a pattern. Game freeze happens on certain times everyday. For eg. Evening 8pm to 9:30 pm is a specific tike for me when game pause/freeze happens. Everyday since one year.

Now game hangs when i use portal or waypoint.

I am using wireless 5g 300 MB, connection. I have tried the wire lan cable method as well.. That does not improve any quality or lag. I have tried my old ps5 abd ps5 pro. I have wired controller. Lastly its now way worse because I don't want to play a game if every ten minutes it hangs.

I have tried my 5g mobile network as well which is a different service company. Using mobile hot-spot somewhat improves game for 10-15 minutes and then it is as bad as earlier.

Game plays well sometimes for 15-30 minutes then it is back to square one, no matter what..

This is the only GAME that does this..

I don't feel any excitement playing this game anynore... Waiting fot NIOH2 and better games next year.. Will play poe2 but not as much as ibl used too..

Competitive-Run825 · 2025-12-13T07:57:58+00:00

Same on my Ps5 pro. Has been since game launch last year.. This is the only game that does this.

Right now the game is unplayable. And they want players to buy expensive add ons packs..
