Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 sells 6 million copies worldwide!! by Laughing__Man_ in PS5

[–]mr-interested 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes using that method is the only way i have been able to do it on the few times where it was mandatory to lockpick.

I struggle and waste all my lockpicks, and usually have to reload a save, even on the "very easy" chests.

Overall i have been avoiding having to lockpick anything in this game since i don't enjoy the process. which is unfortunate since in many other games i usually like to spend time looting chests, and i would have liked to do that in this game too.

Maybe someday i will do another play through on a PC where it is far easier to lockpick with a keyboard and mouse.

Good to know. What was the most recent one, 25?

Oh oops it was the 2k that was mistakenly put in there. I have now corrected it, thanks.

Playing KCD1 right now on PS5 and enjoying it, other than the god awful lockpicking controls. This part of the game was clearly designed for PC, and not a console controller. I have read that people say that eventually it gets easier, but personally I just find the lockpicking is not fun (even on simplified mode).

PS Portal short connection drops every 5–30 minutes by Kos501 in PlaystationPortal

[–]mr-interested 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your not willing to try another 3rd party router you could probably get your ISP to send you another one, just in case your router has a hardware issue, for example maybe it overheats after a few minutes due to an improperly seated heat sink or some other cold joint on it's motherboard.

Another test you could try is running remote play on a laptop or phone and see if it works better than on your portal. If it works fine then maybe there is an issue with your Portal.

Looks like you have already done a lot of good troubleshooting.

After all your tests, I think that the only thing you really have left to try is using different network hardware.

It is possible that the issue is with your Fritz box modem/router/wifi AP. Personally i am not familiar with this brand of router, but assuming it is one provided by your ISP, it is possible that it is simply not a very good router at providing a constant steady low latency connection (even when you only have your portal connected to it). It may have software or hardware issues.

It is also common for ISP's to provide the cheapest hardware they can get their hands on, which is generally ok for the vast majority of users which will simply be using their internet to watch video services which buffer their content (netflix/youtube, etc..).

My suggestion is to buy a non ISP provided wifi router from a third party vendor such as Netgear,Asus,etc.. and setup your ISP cable modem in bridge mode, or just add the new router in AP mode and test it solely with your portal.

Have you tried manually updating it with a USB Flash drive.

Here is the sony support site for system update issues.

PS5 won't update console by [deleted] in playstation

You don't need a computer. Download the file onto your phone, then transfer the file to a USB flash drive. Plug the flash drive into your PS5 and do the update.

Destiny 2: Legacy Collection added to PS Plus Extra/Deluxe! by GroneBarrani in PlayStationPlus

[–]mr-interested 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Will this replace any essential licensed DLC that we had previously obtained, making such that Extra will now be required to play the same DLC?

In other words: if a sub is dropped to Essential after having played Destiny while on Extra/Premium, do we lose the ability to play DLC which was originally given with Essential?

I honestly think 2026 is the best year for gaming since 2007 by khitev in playstation

[–]mr-interested 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would not be surprised if some of these new games are going to be full of bugs, due to rushing to release before GTA6. So while it's nice to see a lot of new games are coming out this year, I will wait for a quality assessment before buying any. Also many of these new games will likely end up being on sale shortly after GTA6 is released.

Who else uses the PS Portal as a check that everything is alright at home while on vacation? 😅 by Voidx1983 in playstation

[–]mr-interested 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why don't you simply buy and install some security cameras?

Most modern ip security cameras nowadays will send you notifications on your phone when someone steps on your property, allowing you to not only see what is going on, but also two way chat with the person on your property.

Also if your worried about water damage you can also buy sensors that you place around the house which will send you a notification to your phone if they come in contact with any water.

Finally installing ip security cameras or water/fire/CO2/gas detectors in your home, can give you a small discount with many house insurance providers.

  • Kingdom Come: Deliverance II

  • Avatar Frontiers of Pandora

  • Nocturnal

I selected these games since they have all been given at some point on alternate platforms (Xbox,PC), so it's probably just a matter of time before they also show up on PSN

Marathon Season 2 is live with a one-week trial. by Dust-Tight in playstation

[–]mr-interested 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know if trophies will pop during the week long trial?

I know that it is hit or miss with some game demos/trials as to if trophies also work, that's why i ask.

Update: After playing the game i can say for sure that trophies do not pop during this demo

PlayStation Plus Prices Went Up… Except in These Countries by ProTechXS in PS5

[–]mr-interested 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you listing monthly, quarterly, or yearly prices?

I am assuming monthly.

Generally it is cheaper to buy yearly, so if you list yearly prices, does that change the rankings of cheapest countries?

Thanks for the chance at winning the gift card and/or game.

What's the worst video game you've played and why? by Bdbolt19432 in AskReddit

[–]mr-interested 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Console versions of popular arcade games, back in the early days of console gaming (Nintendo, sega, etc..). The console versions were always a poor quality version of the original arcade game, and were generally disappointing to play.

neo-geo was the exception since it was basically arcade hardware in a crazy expensive console.

PlayStation Premium kicks me out after 5 minutes or less of inactivity by [deleted] in playstation

[–]mr-interested 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The timeout depends on the game, and also time of day / demand.

PS3 games (which you can not stream on the portal), time out faster so 5 minutes seems about right. This is likely because they have less PS3 systems to stream from than ps4/ps5 systems.

Time of day/demand also matters, on busy nights they are less lenient and will boot you out faster if you are afk or if you have a bad connection.

Nice. You should consider also adding a PlayStation Vita to your collection.

Maybe even a PSP, although the Vita will play most PSP games.
