They seem confident it will be fixed in the future, but it is still worrisome for PS4 buyers, especially since the graphical win isn't by a 50% margin. I just noticed people have been missing this while they looked at resolution and picture quality. I'd rather have a game that looks largely the same, drops every now and then in framerate like most games, but doesn't lock the system up. Here's hoping that both consoles do well, cheers.

". As the PS4 is still more than two weeks away from its Nov. 15th launch date, it seems premature to assume that this issue will not be resolved — and penalizing the game this far from the PS4's launch doesn't seem especially fair."

sounds like an issue with the game and not the hardware.

I believe there's a day 1 patch coming. And Dice insists you download it to smoothen the multiplayer experience.

Wonder Woman agrees with this male.

Console games don't crash and don't have bugs.

Both versions will be patched. For example, ambient occlusion will be patched into the Xbox One version.

that's not even coming in a patch, it's coming in the retail version of the game. The event was using an older build. At least for the X1 version.

PC version was crashing like a bitch for people too. It's nothing to do with the systems, it's just the launch of a multiplayer experience, always happens

I guess it's just like..for me...does any of this really matter? I did not really see too much fanboy wars over which console GTAV looked better on? We just enjoyed the hell out of it? I mean, at this point. The question should be, who's features do you like more? Which UI looks better? Where are your friends and your achievements? Which exclusives do you like? And for me, it's all Xbox man. All we need now is a cute platformer. Cue Rare.

Ha!

Of course it is. Every game outside Knack has been crashing the actual PS4 system. Not a debug kit, not a dev kit, but actual PS4 retail units. This comes as no surprise and really isn't news, unless you are Sony Fan and have not been paying attention.

Um.

Oh, retail PS4... they're not allowed to be played, yet.

Greatness awaits.
