ENCORE ENCORE ENCORE ENCORE!

The only problem I had was that the UI was too good....meaning that it gave you this false sense of security that it was going to handhold you to every location you needed to go to. For example, most of the time if I selected the Firefighter missions, it would set a marker and I”d be on my way. Other times though,…

I very rarely say this about people, but Smedly deserves everything that happens to him.

You’re a fucking idiot. You do realize without Nintendo, PlayStation wouldn’t exist right?

Not the same. Getting hurt from falling down the stairs is a neutral reaction to what happens with an intimate object. There were people behind the DDOS attacks, as well as the plane bomb threats.

Actually its 100% accurate. Its not gray in this comparison. Its one thing to Ddos the game servers, PSN/XBL, etc. Its another to make a bomb threat and endanger the lives of many. Much like a rapist, this “kid” threatened the lives of people on that plane, including Smedley. Smedley was totally and unequivocally…

Threatened to sue his family after having his LIFE THREATENED. Just making sure we got that clear. He’s a bully right?

Sounds to me like you’re one of those rapist supporters who victim blame. “Oh well she dressed that way so she deserved it.” You’re pretty much saying he asked for it.

Agreed it wouldn’t be complicated to add, I just don’t want it overshadowing the need for more stable PSN

I understand not wanting to be bothered, but you can turn off notifications for that so you won’t get any notifications when anyone messages you.

Oh no it absolutely can be done, and should be allowed. I would just rather have Sony focus on improving network stability than adding this feature first. Similar to how they focused on making games work well on it before adding media device compatibility, which they just added recently. Basically, if the next patch…

Yeah in that case I get it. Although there’s an option to mute all incoming notifications so that would solve that issue temporarily until an “appear offline” feature is implemented.

Valid point. But in that case, why not just mute notifications instead? I guess my lack of understanding is coming in the need to individually address all friends that message you. Its like Facebook. I rarely respond to posts immediately if I’m busy. The same could be said for PSN and playing games. Either way, your…

I can understand that. But what happens when you appear offline, but then friends see your activity feed where you are earning trophies and playing online even though PSN says you aren’t? Won’t that hurt them even more if you are just flat out lying to them?

Nah I’m starting to get it. Sorry had to read through all the replies. I guess it makes sense in regards to annoying notifications and whatnot, although there is an option to mute those. But I guess the “need” perse is that some people just like to be online while not being online. Basically still have access to PSN…

I 2nd that, there should be a “busy” status.

Yeah you’re right. It just never occurred to me how many people struggled with this. The only people I’ve encountered who used an “invisible” function used it to troll me, which was like 2 people total. I’ve never seen anyone need to use it for these types of purposes. I dunno I guess I’ve never experienced legit…

See with Xbox360 and PS3 there was very limited social integration. Now with PS4 and Xbox One, they have heavy focus on social. EVERYTHING your friends do is blasted out publicly including when they get trophies, when they played a game, how long they were playing, etc. So even if you do appear invisible, you’d have…

Its ironic because those who cause “drama” are the ones who need to learn social fundamentals. I have social fundamentals. See if my friends notice I’m not responding to their PSN messages, they don’t get butthurt and cry about it. They just move on and we play another time. No drama, no mess.

Oh shit, then yeah add VIP or favorites. That would be very useful for me.
