I get sick of windows always on the update as well I do allow it to update from time to time because it needs them but usually I leave it turned off as it's always trying to do it when I'm in the middle of something. I know the updates are important for security and what have you but it does get a bit silly sometimes especially as I rarely pick up any problems and in fact I maybe only get hit by a virus maybe once a year at most. But that's only because I'm careful and know what I'm looking for in order to avoid them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn't the games update automatically if you leave the system in Standby mode? That's what I do... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leave your PS4 in standby mode (takes up barely any power) and it will update automatically, assuming you haven't turned any of those options off. MUCH more convenient and saves a lot of time. Plus, by leaving it in standby mode, you can buy games/demos from the store (phone or computer) and they will automatically start to download, even if you are away.

sjsharp2010 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 downloading the DLC for Bioshock infinite decided to start again later with that game as I keep failing I think once I have the right upgrades I'll be fine but unfortunately I'll have to play the whole game again to get them but on the bright side at least I know what I'm up against now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, what about PCs, laptops, kitchen appliances? I'm sure Sony and MS will lower the power requirements with future updates since the OS is constantly improving. For me, the convenience of everything being updated and ready to go outweighs the extra power usage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's up to each individual to decide what's best for them . I wouldn't say dismiss the reports altogether as some can be accurate but some reports do have a tendency to exaggerate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukedfrt Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Fifa 14 is amazing, the game play was a huge improvement over 13.Not just a pace abusing game now, and career mode has improved a lot over the last couple of years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukedfrt Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 That's been in every Fifa though, nothing new from EA.Can't remember that last time i played it online, because of scripting.

Lukedfrt Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I never understood how EA lost the license for the Champions League, they have the money for it compared to Konami.But then again, they used to bring a seperate Champions League game out alongside Fifa. So Screw you again EA! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platy Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Playing the BAP mode online with friends was great fun on the old FIFA games. Most fun I think I've had on a football game since the old PES games. Shame that mode is ruined by allowing someone to control more than one player, such a stupid addition. It wouldn't be an EA game without a ridiculous game mechanic.
