PS4 Firmware 1.71 is now available – System stability has been…
A few hours ago, the Twitter account of Playstation told us that there will be the PS4 firmware 1.71 pretty soon, which will improve the system stability…
You know the drill.
PS4 system software update 1.71 coming soon, will improve software stability of some features. Reminder: Activate your automatic download

Said new PS4 firmware is now available for download, and it seems that the new firmware 1.71 is mandatory for accessing the PSN store and other online functions.

It is currently not known, if this new firmware will be bundled with a new PS Vita firmware, e.g. 3.16, which could fix the recent exploits for MyStylist and the Pawa Puro Ketteiban game, which are only available via the Japanese PSN store.

This is excellent news. Stability is such an important and ever so hard thing to get right even after so many previous attempts so we should be very excited. Yay for stability!!!!!
You do realize that when they say “stability improvement” they only mean patching exploits.
You do realize that when he says “this is excellent news” he is only ironical.
Sarcastic. 😉
lol stability!!!!! yeah right just more hack proofing and we all know it Sony just tell us the truth we all big kids we can handle the truth lol
What???? Hackproofing? No way. It can’t be that. They sell unstable products out of the box by their own admission. So much so that they need to fix them every 3 weeks or so.
Every mayor software product has stability issues, even if minor, so stick your blind fanboyism where the sun doesn’t shine.
o_O
If that reply was meant for me, I was joking about the frequency of required updates and it is not faboyism to say they have been far to often. Even though I do own all the systems from over the years, if I were to be a fanboy, it would be $ony that is my personal overall favorite systems. I just think you misunderstood my poking fun at the systems that I love.
yet another useless firmware update from sony ?
All I care about is them fixing the auto save upload bug.
I hope I’m pleasantly surprised when I turn my PS4 on after work today.
(I don’t think I would bother hacking my PS4 even if there was a hack publicly available)
just do it …
but why does nobody do it … hack the ps3 ofw …
its like there to secure now ?.?
