Beta for PlayStation 4's 3.50 Update Starts Soon – Key Features Detailed


PlayStation 4
Our beta program for PlayStation 4 's next major system software update, version 3.50 (codenamed MUSASHI), kicks off tomorrow. If you signed up for the beta and were selected, keep an eye on your email for instructions on downloading.

Regardless of whether you're in the beta, we wanted to detail some of the key features we're adding to PS4 in this update. We're making it easier to play together with friends and adding the ability to appear offline when you'd rather play solo.

New Social Features
• Friend Online Notification – Want to know the moment your friends come online? With this update, you can, as we've added an option to be notified when members of your friends list sign on the network.
• Appear Offline – Sometimes you want to play a game or watch a movie without being bothered by friends. Now it's easier to go incognito as we've added the option to appear offline. You can designate if you would like to appear offline when you log-in or at any time from your Profile or the Quick Menu.
• User Scheduled Event – Time for a play date! We've added the ability to schedule a future gameplay session with your friends on the system. When your event starts, users who registered for the event will automatically be added to a party so you can start playing right away.
• Play Together – This features allows all members of a Party to see what each person is playing so that you can easily join a friend's game, or start a new game together.

Other New System Features
• Remote Play (PC/Mac) – We're bringing PS4 Remote Play to Windows PC and Mac. This feature won't be available to test in the beta, but you can look forward to it soon.
• Dailymotion – With this update, you'll be able to live stream directly to Dailymotion on PS4. We'll also support archiving live broadcasts, like we do for other streaming services.

Stay tuned for more details on MUSASHI, including additional key features and its release date.

Beta for PlayStation 4’s 3.50 Update Starts Soon – Key Features Detailed

Seems like a good update looking forward to that remote play via pc.

Remote play sounds cool if I can get it to work with little to no lag like some of the Sony Stan's on here claim they can, otherwise it's useless to me. Appearing offline is cool because when I'm watching a movie I don't need to get a million game invites.

 

[Stinky Diver]

Dope ass update.

 

[ikbm]

greatest update thus far....by far.

 

[Kamikaze Revy]

How many years in and we still can't get a highly requested feature that was on the 360?.....PSN Name change

I hope they have a checklist to let you select which friends you want to trigger the friend online notification. Gonna be messy seeing the box appear for every time everyone on your list signs on especially if you got a lot of friends.

User Scheduled Event this could really help the Coli set up tournaments.

Appear offline I use the Plex app a lot and it won't let you sign on without being logged in to PSN. So this is great!

Play Together I'm confused on this since I thought the party chat already does this. You can see the games everyone is playing, click their names and join their game if the game allows it...

I'm not really excited about this update. Only thing I'm interested in using is appearing offline.
I'd like to see name changes and the ability to sort my games into folders. Other than that I'm fine with the system it currently has.

I've said this a million times on this board. I've tried wired connection, wireless, every configuration you can think. Bottom line is remote play simply isn't as lag free as you guys claim it to be. I have high speed Verizon FiOS at my house. I forget the speed rating but it's one of the upgraded ones. The issue is not my set up. The issue is the reality that the Vita does not perform the way you guys pretend it does. I've heard people here say that they get no lag playing wireless from their jobs. I call bs.

you can call bs but what nikkas gotta lie for? the shyt you complaining about ain't been a problem since 2014. i done played gta 5 at my job no problem, i done played 2k at the airport no problem, rocket league and call of duty no problem. do some googles and you'll find it's not just here. at one point the lag was terrible and i couldn't stay connected but that was a while ago.

Yeah, I thought this update would have it. I really would like to change it to my coli username, I'd even pay for it. The current PSN name I got now I robbed from a fellow coli breh

When do you find up if you been selected for the beta?

Probably after the scheduled maintenance this week. It's gonna be through email provided you signed up for the beta a while back.

 

[The Phoenix]

Finally a sign on notification. I'd like to have a sign off notification as well though.

 

[Grand Conde]

Look at this motherfukker Kamikaze Revy in here bytching and whining about Sony and Sony stans. Dude sounds just like MeechJr. All these Ls he has taken from Fatboi recently must have ethered the fukk out of him.

 

[The_Sheff]

About damn time. They basically just adding things the 360 could do.
