(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Idk how to put that title lol but anyone's PS4 ever take forever to like load a game on the XMB, like, if you move over really fast on all your games, it'll try to load the pictures but sometimes it can't and it'll have that little loading circle thingy, has anyones ever taken for ever and have to re-start your ps4?
I've had, a couple of times, it's annoying. The PS4 sucks at multitasking IMO.

This is also right after I cleaned and rebuild my database on it lol.

I've never had this issue before but I've heard of the PS store taking ages to load something.

Had a little Google search but couldn't really find anything that would help greatly.

Do you get any error codes at all?

Nah, tweeted PSupport and they said to rebuild the database lol.
It happens from time to time, and when I turn it off to restart it, it beeps twice like an error did happen (just like the ps3) so hopefully it is an error and not just my ps4 taking a shit.

Yeah the PS4 is full of problems like this I have ran into it a few times. I also experience problems with the friends list not loading up or messages taking well over 5 minutes to get the even though it shows a preview of a new message on the homescreen when trying to load them thats when the waiting happens.

It is stupid that you have to hard restart the console just to get it to play nice. I usually like to leave mine on stand by but that seems to be the big problem.

Wonder if they will ever fix the problems that it has or just leave them there?

It happens to also crash during games (Doki Doki Universe is a main one) in which you have to yank the power cable just to get it to respond.

problems problems everywhere haha.

Haha wow, good to see I'm not alone here... I've never had it freeze on a game, but yeah loading the friends list is a big problem.
I feel like this would be hard to fix and it's more of a hardware issue maybe, I don't know.. But it does suck.

Yeah I no. Trust me when I say your not alone in this.

I have a few friends as we'll experiencing this and when I contact don't about it they tried to blame my ISP.

I had to mention at this point that my friends suffer from the same problem and we all have different ISP's to one and other so what could the problem actually be.

They just said basically to restore the console and start a fresh. Yeah like I am going to listen to people who don't even no what there talking about lol.

It could very well be a hardware issue especially seeing as the Playstation app works just fine when it comes to loading the friends list and replying to messages so god only knows when and if they could address it.

Going into a players profile while in-game is trash. It sometimes takes 2 minutes to load, and other times, very rarely, takes a couple of seconds. Oe of the patches was supposed to fix this issue and it did, for about a week. Not Happy or Sad
