GazzaGarratt 11,163 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 The upcoming 5.0 firmware update still hasn't got a live date but sounds to be coming soon. From what I've read it will contain the following: - updates to the console's master/sub account system (parent/child accounts with relevant privileges)- a new web application to manage family accounts, and access parental controls/family membership options from your PC and smartphone- the ability to follow any user- the addition of notifications to the PS4's quick menu- Twitch streaming at 1080p 60fps will be limited to those with the 5.0 firmware update using a PlayStation 4 Pro- you will be able to follow anyone's account, similar to the system on Xbox One.- minor changes include push notifications for events- spectator comments on screen while broadcasting in VR mode- the ability to link broadcasts to a PlayStation Community- support for seven more languages: Czech, Thai, Greek, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Romanian and Hungarian I wouldn't say this is a significant update for a .0 update if I'm honest. I don't have a Pro though so can't comment on that. Link to comment https://forevergaming.co.uk/forum/forums/topic/4776-ps4-50-firmware-update/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil bottle 9,952 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Switching between apps is a pain the arse, YouTube to Twitch for example, they should try fixing that.Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk Link to comment https://forevergaming.co.uk/forum/forums/topic/4776-ps4-50-firmware-update/#findComment-93723 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk Agreed, might start a separate thread about what we think should be updated going forward. The streaming element seems the most significant change but with Destiny at 30fps and other games currently at a lower rate its not much use atm.

GazzaGarratt 11,163 Posted October 3, 2017 Author Share Posted October 3, 2017 This firmware update goes live today. Probably a good thing for the notifications bar to be changed as it's been doing my head in of late. tronic44 1 Link to comment https://forevergaming.co.uk/forum/forums/topic/4776-ps4-50-firmware-update/#findComment-96836 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure I still have notifications switched off....I think we all know why Link to comment https://forevergaming.co.uk/forum/forums/topic/4776-ps4-50-firmware-update/#findComment-96926 Share on other sites More sharing options...
