Picked up the Destiny PS4...still waiting on downloads

TechSilver13

So I got my PS4 today and updated it pretty quickly. Then I bought The Last of Us Remastered and started to download it ...7 hours later it says there are 4 hours left. This is seriously laughable. The only thing I have to compare it to is Xbox Live, you know a paid service just like PSN now and the downloads are blazing fast in comparison. If this is what PSN paid subscription brings to the table I am not impressed. I have done all the changing of DNS servers and have my proxy setup and it helped a lot but it's still ridiculous that the day I bought the console I can't even play a game. My network speed it 70 megs down and 4.5 up. Is there anything else that can fix this abomination? And yes it is the only thing downloading and the PS4 is the only thing utilizing my network, and I am plugged directly into my router.

Wireless on the PS4 is complete crap(assuming you're using that), I only get like 8Mbps downloading when my internet speed is like 24Mbps. Have you tried ethernet?

My PS3 was pretty decent at downloading over both WiFi and ethernet. I'm buying a PS4 (or xbone) sometime this week. Hope this isn't an issue with everyone :/

I've been reading it could be the destiny effect since everyone is trying to download and play today.

Man idk if it's the servers or the console but lately downloads have been taking me days except at night then it's a 2-3 hours.

I just realized I'm hyped for 2k16 but it will take a day to download.....

There's known issues with the download speeds on PSN, Which they have said they are going to look into.

 

If you are getting a crappy download rate, pause the download and resume it; it connects to a different server and you might get a faster download rate.

and we will live such tragedy in perpetuity.
