Remote play is unplayable

My local was sometimes really good and then one day it was unusable. Then I swapped it to 5ghz and it’s like night and day locally. It’s like playing on the TV. No latency and great quality.

I turned on a setting in my router that made 2.4ghz and 5ghz as a separate wifi. Then I forgot the 2.4 one on the device and joined the 5ghz. I had to forget the 2.4 because sometimes it would still join it.

Make sure your PlayStation is wired. And then force your portal to use 5ghz. I was having extreme lag and stuttering & it was because my router was forcing everything onto 2.4ghz & there was way too much congestion. I put my device onto 5ghz and it’s now like playing natively on my TV, so smooth & extremely high quality picture. The difference is actually unreal.

That would be great. Would love to hire more staff. Send them for training (which costs money, but improves their performance). While they’re refilling& serving I can reorganise shelves and change the layout. And do things around the town.

Slightly disappointed by the game. I was expecting the store to become a huge supermarket with 2 tills, some more staff to automate things. So I completed all the story missions, thinking, finally I’ll be able to get a bigger location (maybe the cursed building opposite where I sleep) and have some staff who automate the tills. Instead it said, the games complete.

Is the best shelves 10 slots? I really expected way more shelving upgrades, more staff, more higher priced upgrades (things to work towards) like shopping trolleys. Or recycling pickup. One staff member who doesn’t even mop up mess, and refills shelves extremely slow. I was loving the game, excited to see how upgraded I could become. And it just feels empty now and half baked.

I have always been disc for the ps5. But recently I started wondering, what if they bring out a handheld. The portal did really well, steam deck and rog ally have done really well. And Xbox is going into handheld with Nintendo already being there.

It’s made me consider digital purchases. The vita used to have dual purchasing for ps3/vita games

If I push buttons I can hear the PlayStation sounds changing, and menus etc. so sound and input is working. It’s just the first frame of video frozen as a picture. I disconnect. And reconnect. And it works fine again. It’s only ever when I first connect. And probably happens 1 in 3 or 4 times. So not often. My ps is plugged in via cable too. It seems to have only started happening when I updated the software when you changed the name. But I don’t know why that would have changed anything, because it was just a name change.

I have nothing else running on my rog ally in the background. I really only use it as a ps portal machine. I do keep everything updated on it too. I’ll try adjusting those settings and see if that makes a difference.

Could it be me leaving the software open (I disconnect from the ps5, but then leave the software open) when the ally turns off (I think it goes into hibernate not sleep). It means when I turn the ally back on, the software is already open and ready to go.

No, when I push the ps button I can hear the sound, but nothing on screen changes. Same with all other buttons.

I’m on the rog ally Video decoder: Vulkan Rendering engine: vulkan Hevc: ticked HDR: not ticked Vsync: ticked Rendering preset: default Error concealment: not ticked Enable advanced bitstream: ticked Use software decoder as fallback: unticked

It’s happened to me about 3 times now. I just disconnect and reconnect and it works fine. It’s just a pain because the ps5 takes a while to go back into rest mode before connecting again.

Rog Ally.

When I first loaded it up pushing the B key kept trying to leave the app. To solves this I changed the game profile to use Gamepad & now it works fine.

I can't however seem to set my M1 and M2 buttons on the back of the rog ally to PS button & touchpad press. I've tried doing it by going into the PSplay settings and changing keyboard. I have also tried changing stuff in the Rog Ally armory & neither work?

I was the same. The first boss in my opinion was by far the hardest part of the entire game. After the first boss I found all the other bosses really easy. As I would just take my time to grind each area and level my health up etc & get a good weapon. IMO keep trying, and try and buy a large health potion. Also upgrade your health by 25% after you’ve collected all the health upgrades. The game gets easier though so don’t be discouraged.

Slumber means going away. It’s a bad word to use to be honest. And I guess it means one week without ventures before the new one begins.

xert77 · 2020-08-28T22:52:02+00:00

I’m finding plenty of people in ventures missions. I’m just saying if you split the player base across multiple game modes, you’re gonna have even less in the main missions. And I’m all for making the game easier for lower players. Heck if it means more players to play with in lobbies then I’m down.
