  • TheGnomeMan Les Bowden Flying Gnomes (@TheGnomeMan) reported

    @_NotoriousDRE @PlayStation My understanding is chip shortages just like all electronics now, compatible speed if the drives and potential heat issues.

  • KingJoopy scott (@KingJoopy) reported

    @AskPS_UK why is ps4 party chat not working ??

  • Alex_Neverm1nd Alex (@Alex_Neverm1nd) reported

    @EASPORTSFIFA @PlayStation I don't play ultimate team, but can you guys fix the soccer aid team glitch? It's kind of annoying playing against people with no skill using an OP team.

  • BlitzoFluff Blitzø/Spirit (@BlitzoFluff) reported

    @SpectroFluff I have broken wii remotes because I was angry at a Zelda game not going to play HK lol plus I already have it on my playstation

  • MysteriousXF Jose MXF (@MysteriousXF) reported

    @PlayStation ever since the last update for ps5 I keep getting lan error messages and disconnects from my lan. I believe the last update did something to my console and many others.

    @mahdii03 @AskPlayStation I was facing this same issue earlier today but got helped by @hackzyne01 on Instagram WhatsApp +1 360 218 3802

  • GramsCali Cali G (@GramsCali) reported

    @AskPS_UK are your servers down? i cant connect to any servers or my WiFi

  • Comedy2_0_ver_3 👻😈Slapstick Comedy2.0 ver. 3🎃💀 (@Comedy2_0_ver_3) reported

    @1F4RT3D @RuleTimeSpace @HappiDev_ My console collection consists of the PS2 (disc tray is broken though), the PS3 (getting that sucker to connect to the internet is complicated as hell so no PSN for me), the 3DS (battery broke 3 years ago, haven't played it since), the DSi, and the Gameboy Color.

  • BadGarbage1442 BadGarbage1442 (@BadGarbage1442) reported

    @playrustconsole Will you be fixing the constant game crashes on PlayStation it happens for me and my friends out games crash usually like 3 times in an hour then when I log on the game will crash over and over and I can’t log in and I always lose stuff because if it.

  • 1zmatek Michael Aponte (@1zmatek) reported

    @PlayStation @AskPlayStation YOUR CUSTOMER SERVICE SUCKS!!!!

  • TheRetroKaiju RetroKaiju (@TheRetroKaiju) reported

    @META_KNlGHT @Vet_093 Well I'll give you one. Crash bandicoot is an iconic character from Sony's history. Him, Rayman and Spyro were the reason why people wanted to pick up a playstation, and as a fighter he'd be very easy to implement. He already has weapons that he can use too.

  • Migh_and_Highty Abbas Pardhan (@Migh_and_Highty) reported

    @JalanDarsh @aleXViale_83 I won't deny Sony were misleading. I don't think they lied. They never said games like Horizon were ps5 exclusive but they did say PlayStation exclusive at a ps5 event and so on. Nevertheless, their 'lie' doesn't affect you. It just gives you more choice. It's a non issue.

    Does anyone have any tips on how to fix a drifting controller @PlayStation @sony

  • JordanShmordan1 Jordan Wilson (@JordanShmordan1) reported

    @AskPlayStation I’m having issues making a purchase for ps now but am able to purchase other things using my default payment method. I can’t complete the 12 month subscription from the iOS app, the website, or from my ps5. I reached out to chat support but they weren’t much help.

  • hereforaps5tbh .. (@hereforaps5tbh) reported

    @ATVIAssist @ATVIAssist My activision account got unlinked without my authorization and lost pretty much all of my progress I didn’t even get an email about noticed when I loaded up (this is on pc/psn) others are complaining about the same issue I hope I can get some help asap!

  • 1738Gun Deafgun1738 (@1738Gun) reported

    @AskPlayStation @Diego17445 My Playstation network sign-in is showing Failed but it stays your system is running fine so what is the problem?

  • thelegitest16 J A L E E L 🇨🇦 #FreePalestine (@thelegitest16) reported

    @AskPlayStation my dual sense is experiencing drifting on the left stick. What fix do you have for this? @PlayStation @PlayStationCA

  • spammsexxy opsdaddy (@spammsexxy) reported

    @AskPlayStation It’s not a code error I’m just always getting connection interruptions and something about errors

  • Tutomosplus Sino (@Tutomosplus) reported

    @PISamuray @PretzelJones @Charalanahzard I'm not surprised that a community that's having issues with Aloy's looks would go after a women that used to be a part of a popular PlayStation podcast and now works for Sony.

  • Hero_ofTime3679 Dayle Simpson (@Hero_ofTime3679) reported

    @Xbox Idk if this is just me but I'm having issues with playing @CallofDuty with a headset. My friends cannot hear me who are playing on @PlayStation

  • T_ORiain Treabhar Ó Riain 🇮🇪 🇪🇺 🌍 ☘️ 🇨🇵 (@T_ORiain) reported

    @AskPS_UK Hi, I signed up for the PS Now free trial, had a look at the games and then literally didn't use it again but I've just been charged for the auto renew. Sorry, should have cancelled it but forgot. Could I agree a refund please as I don't plan on using the service.

  • BuyMyPremiun Trent (@BuyMyPremiun) reported

    @TheGamrDad Mf I deleted the last one because of that typeo and did it again. Not a code glitch but the having the game open on a PlayStation and Xbox at the same time it’s like quads the xp you get

  • over_aj OverLord AJ (@over_aj) reported

    @AskPlayStation Do know if there’s a way to fix a drifting controller?

  • GrumpyMathTeach 𝔸𝕟𝕘𝕣𝕪 𝕄𝕒𝕥𝕙𝕤 𝕋𝕖𝕒𝕔𝕙𝕖𝕣 (@GrumpyMathTeach) reported

    @FakeHeadteacher Some children did an excellent job in my online lessons. Other children logged in, stayed on mute, and played PlayStation - doing zero maths. That’s not my fault. Why is it my problem? Parents allowed it to happen. Make them pay for catch up.

  • MldGhost GeneralMLD (@MldGhost) reported

    @_temmi @TheRealGaymer50 @XboxInfinite117 Correction. It’s an Xbox service. And therefore it’s something they have on PlayStation.

  • expert_45 Expertgamer45 (@expert_45) reported

    @EnergizedSky @avoblackfyre @JeffGrubb The thing is Sony really rely on PlayStation revenue, if they didn't get as much money as they do from PlayStation they would be in a bad place financially. That is also why they won't put new games at launch on a service like Xbox does, it would mess with their revenue.
