Siden lanseringen av Sonys Playstation 4 i slutten av forrige uke (i Europa) har PSN-nettverket vært preget av ustabilitet og serverproblemer. Dette til tross for at Sony har deaktivert funksjoner som Whats New-menyen og innløsing av koder.
På den offisielle Playstation-bloggen har imidlertid Sony gitt løpende oppdateringer om situasjonen, og nå melder de at lyset i enden av tunnelen begynner å bli synlig. Faktisk skal innløsninger av koder (inklusive PS3 til PS4-oppgraderinger) være tilbake i drift de fleste steder, og i løpet av morgendagen satser de på å aktivere de gjenværende funksjonene også.
Dette kommer altså frem av den offisielle europeiske Playstation-bloggen:
UPDATE 3 (9.09pm GMT, 1st December): We have been working on the PSN service roll-out throughout the weekend and are continually increasing the availability of the voucher redemption functionality. The next phase of the roll out is to introduce the What's New Activity Feed and Live Item in the Content Information Screen, which we will be able to update you on tomorrow. Thank you for your continued patience as we manage PSN to restore full service.
UPDATE 2 (9.22pm GMT, 30th November): Users will be aware that core network stability has returned throughout today and we are beginning the next phase of PSN service roll-out e.g. users will soon be able to progressively see the content info area for game titles. Voucher redemption continues to be controlled in order to cope with volume. We will have an update tomorrow. Thank you for your patience as we manage PSN to restore full service.
UPDATE 1 (11.22am GMT, 30th November): We are making progress in identifying the source of the current PSN disruption. Currently sign up, sign in, trials, store, online gameplay, share and community functionality is available. Redeem voucher is still not open to users. Further updates will be posted later today.
ORIGINAL POST: We are aware that users are experiencing some disruption to the PSN service. To minimise the inconvenience we have suspended the "redeem voucher" functionality whilst we investigate further. Unfortunately this means that money cards, product vouchers, PlayStation Plus vouchers, PS3-PS4 upgrade vouchers and any other vouchers for digital content are not redeemable at this stage. Other PSN features such as log-in, online multi-player gaming, PlayStation Plus trial, PS Store (excluding voucher redemption), trophies, messages, friends etc. are all available.
We apologise and will provide an update to this announcement soon.
