Why does this need a thread?
Release day of a big new release. How are people still surprised by this?
Destiny is the exception, not the norm
PSN might be melting

fuck that-its cause 2.1 is out for Utimate Evil Edition
People are paying $50 a year now to play online on their PS4, it absolutely is an issue and worthy of a thread. If it's dying now during the first 2 weeks of October what the hell is going to happen when things like COD, Assassin's Creed and GTA V come out?
This exactly. Even the app does this.
It's time for another stability update, I think.
Yeah, sorry about that. I'm completely negative towards those type of people and have no clue as to why I even typed that. Sorry.

Completely awful considering alot of people are paying for the service now.

It should not be like this though. We are paying customers now, and we're paying for a service. Raising awareness about the state of the service (and its shortcomings) will help us all in the long run.

Really? Everything seems fine over at Steam.
Thought I entered a PSN thread...
On topic - I'm also bothered with how crap it's been running, we pay for it now and it's worse than it's ever been on PS3 (minus the hack).

It's stuff like this that keeps me from wanting to invest in the PS4 eco system. How the hell is this acceptable? 
Because PSN has been hot, mesquite ass for several weeks and we pay for online.
Dying is such an overdramatic accusation. I'll say again that even on my relatively unimpressive connection, im still getting top speeds.
Its very possible that this is over specific regions.
99% of the time.

This is Sony's Achilles heel. I'm going to reconsider my Sony "membership" when my ps plus sub runs out next year. Better servers and better way to filter your download list. Come on Sony, up your game dammit.

UK still logged into PSN, friends list, parties and messagign all stalling. Just tried game of BF4 and crashed back to XMB. Going for a shower whilst this shit is sorted. Weirdly enough, my PS4 just downloaded a driveclub base file ready for preload tomorrow I assume. Nice timing 
Are EA still using their own servers? Perhaps that's why. Still I don't quite understand why Destiny and Driveclub would cause the friendslist etc. to break down.

Why do that, though? If you download them as they become available, then you don't have to wait for them to download and install when you actually do want to play them.

Why does he wear the mask!?
Maybe for you
PSN has been subpar compared to LIVE for years, it was often forgiven because of the free angle.
Now there should be no excuses
Agreed, though the Xbone issues can't be as bad as PS4's.

It's been like this for weeks for me. So nothing new today. Friends list hasn't loaded in like a month. Party chat has barely worked the last 24hr.
But it´s only out for US. Why must the rest of the world suffer from this ? Damn you Americans !

that janky ass service is now worth $50.
Because who knows when I will want to play them, to me it is a waste to just have them sitting on my hard drive.

Can we just have a dedicated thread for this shit going forward. It seems really dumb to always have these "uh hey guys is psn down right now guys?" threads.
Can't or can?

Hasn't updated here on the East Coast o' USA yet.
I dunno, it's Tuesday. Update day. Lots of people checking it every few mins for their new games, etc in addition to Sony uploading tons of new stuff and companies like Blizzard releasing Diablo patches. So it's slow...I expect this and am ok with this.

Sony needs to seriously invest in their infrastructure. This shit is amature
PSN has been "melting" since the free weekend. I've been having problem sending friend requests, reading messages, and seeing who's online since then. Everything has been taking minutes to load. Restarting the PS4 works for a short while before it goes back to that slow state. Disconnecting it from the Internet doesn't seem to work either.
It's not just me. Many over at Destiny OT have been experiencing the same problem. It's made grouping up for raids and such a bit off hassle.

not one cent of the ps+ money went towards their online/multiplayer infrastructure.
