PlayStation Home Beta Update

367 0

We are aware that some people may be experiencing difficulty in accessing the PlayStation Home beta at present. This is due to overwhelming demand for the service as people access Home for the very first time since it became Open Beta and appeared on the XMB.

While we prepare solutions to ease the problem, you may continue to experience difficulties accessing Home. We kindly ask for your patience as we work to meet the incredible demand for this revolutionary service.

  • Take all the time you want, it is a Beta after all.

  • home is boring.

  • eventhough this is a beta i still think it is really good but i wish that they fix the sever problem i cant get in ive got in once can someone tell me what is wrong ps. when is the next update coming p.p.s. if a home desiganer could email me because i have loads of ideas that everyone could benefit from for playstation home

  • OK i have a HUGE problem accessing Home. I have the latest firmware update (I checked with the “system update” feature). And this Home beta icon isn’t appearing under my “PlayStation Network” icon in my XMB. I don’t know what to do or if it will ever show up. I’m reading about bugs that are IN Home itself, but I can’t even seem to access it… does anyone know what’s happening?

  • i log into HOME fine now, in like 10 seconds. good job, Sony.

    p.s. When will more stores/items be added to the mall?

    When you add more stores, will you make the mall bigger?

  • Is there coming Redd Bulls own Island or is it just for USA Home ??

  • SONY has really screwd it up if that is just for USA HOME.

    I have heard that USA HOME is bigger allready .. That sucks -.-

  • I have the same problem with no icon for home on my XMB, please don’t reply if you’re gonna give stupid answers… does anyone know whats going on here? Yes I have the latest firmware update, I live in North America (so its not my region)and I am a member of the PSN… so…

  • for some reason I’m having less problems and much more fun logging into the american and japanese home than the european one >.> oh and what the hell are australians and new zealanders doing on the european home? seriously dude >.>

  • @ Patrick

    Hey, I am loving HOME so far, but I was wondering when the Red Bull space is going to go live and when are the Diesel and ligne roeet stores are going to open?

    @ wallhugger

    I think that Australia and New Zealand are part of the PAL regions.

  • how do u fix the c931 problem

  • @270 this may be a dumb answer to you but you may want to call sony there no one here that was working on the home project so you may want to try that .

  • its working great for me now no problem logging on now,
    someone add and hit me up

  • Home needs PlayStation Eye face mapping

  • Oh please Sony. You really didnt see this “demand” coming? Time to put a stop in all those delays, screwups and what not.

    One very frustrated PS3 owner.

  • Are there going to be more locations in the world?
    A nice forest, beach, mountain location would be interesting.
    You could have trails where people could walk and talk with meeting places. Just a thought.

  • @277 its just a beta that all you all wanted to be an open beta and become tester this is what tester do in beta we test it , so i do not get you when you say demand ? you wanted to be part of the beta well welcome to the life of a beta tester enjoy . i guess you dont understand what sony doing this have never been done before when it come to home sure sony could had play it safe and do like MS AND COPY THE WII . remake wii character yes it going to get worse before it get better but if sony quit ervertime they loose a step they wouldn’t be what they are today. so mine friend clam down test wait and jug it when the full version come out.

  • I still have no Home icon under my xmb. How can i contact Sony in a message? If anyone knows let me know

  • loving home sony but will we see more option in the body department of our avatars as in real life i enjoy gym and on here you can only be fat or slim kinda annoying?

  • Sony has one big piece of crap on their hands with this joke called Home. Home is absolutely boring and pointless, and I think you and everyone at Sony knows they made a gicantic mistake with this idea. Once again Sony has embarrassed themselves. Scrap the thing and reinvest the money into the PSN. You are wasting time and money with Home

  • c931 PROBLEM :

    Reason : Playstation (r) HOME Server error

    You just need reconnect some time to get in.
    They are solving that problem ATM

  • Home is still in its testing phase. Thus the name Home Beta.

    If you wish to contribute with its development, you may find info here: http://www.homebetatrial.com/

    This was posted at the site by the Home Community Manager:

    “We’re working up a list of the errors and should have them early next week.

    “However, I thought I’d find out about C-931 now as thats the one being reported the most currently and this is the error you’ll receive when you can not connect and is related to very high levels of traffic.

    “Keep trying. I got it myself early and managed to connect after a few retries. I know that doesnt make it OK but at least theres a way round it sometimes. In the meantime its been reported to the dev team.”

  • how come home is still not appearing on my XMB? i have the latest update, restarted my PS3, have internet connection, am signed in. what am i doing wrong?

  • And apparently only the overly annoying children are getting into Home. Wow! This has been a poor experience. I have lost all hope in humanity. There is no sign of intelligent life anywhere.

  • Well, I’ve had some fun walking around talking to people and bowling. I’ve wasted a lot of time bowling.

  • I have not met many annoying people while on Home. The few that I have met, I just muted or ignored.

    Home is a great service. Looking forward to a very active and bright future.

  • it was working fine before…and now i cant sign into HOME

  • When I try to enter Home at the HDD info screen nothing happens and i have to quit game to exit. The latest update was just intalled 1.03 I believe, what’s up with this? will I get in soon? hope so.

  • I think Home Beta is Okej, but my house/apartment just keeps losing its furniture and I have to re decorate and its annoying(has happened 4 times now). I also have a problem to go to my friends, when they are like in the bowling allay. The go to doesn’t work and I cant invite them to join me unless I am in my house.
    I hope it will be fixed soon and that we will see more of Home :D

  • how come i dont see the home icon on the bottom of PSN XMB ICON

  • I haven’t been having very much difficulty logging in myself ,but sometimes inside home there are people with headsets who just like to yell offensive comments straight into the mic.Anyway I can mute them?

  • So many people here complaining about not seeing the HOME icon appearing on their XMB (me included) and others telling them to contact Sony. …..Hello….. we’re at a Sony site, someone from Sony must be reading these posts but they choose not to say anything….. Typical Sony.

  • I’m just glad this is finally happening.

  • About charging for items.

    I personally think if you guys at Sony want to charge for things. You have to make them a LOT more cheaper.

    $1.00 here and .50 cents there is ridiculous for virtual nothings.

    I would be inclined to think that people would spend the money of they were $0.10 cents here $0.15 there. There would be much more impulsive buying.

    Seriously.

  • yea i have no icon on my xmb either yea sony please send me one my psn is shoey140

  • ok here are some thing i really want and i think you need

    1)You can earn money from playing games bowling and other stuff i dont think alot of people want to spend real money on stuff

    2)more bowling lanes,pool tables,arcade games,ext.

    3)more spaces i would love to see a little big planet space and all other spaces like a sports bar and cool stuff like that
