Does anyone else have a problem in which the longer they navigate the store the slower it gets. I have to get back to the PS4 home menu and then enter the store again so it goes back to normal.
What was wrong with the old one from 2012?
Searching for a game in a specific series with bazillion entries, DLCs and microtranscations is just way too much, and it's even worse if the DLCs you're looking for is from a video game with a long ass title:
You can't even know the DLC's names unless you pause for 5 seconds or press on the DLC to know if it's the one you're looking for, it's such a badly designed search engine it makes me dread going to the store.
Who on earth thought that searching by scrolling letters was a good idea how the hell is this acceptable in 2018?
Yeah that does help that it all links together. In that sense it's fine.A small thing but click on the dlc and they'll let you go to the main game page.
No but I've got this feeling like I should for some reason.But guys, have you seen season 2 of Westworld and subscribed to HBO yet?
This ad is very annoying, appears almost everywhere in the store and also in What's New section
Yeah, my advice also. I rarely use the PSN store, but do regularly use the browser version on my mobile phone.
They changed the search function on the console store to be better, where you type in what you want to search instead of going letter by letter and the first results are actually what you want rather than some random crap.
Eh....why don't you try it now?I don't even use the console store. It's slow, slow to navigate, and has baffling design decisions like this.
Like, Sony...you...have a system for entering text and numerals already. How.

I believe that's what Gadwin was commenting on.
Yeah it feels like they don't even care and asume that people use the webstore or PlayStation App anyways, lol.The store actually used to be pretty good back on the PS3 before they introduced the PS4 store style re-design.
Now the best way to buy games is through the web store and then going to your library on the console. You can even remotely start downloads on the web store if you're playing on your primary PS4.
The PlayStation store is such trash and slow, especially on an OG PS4. They really need to overhaul the store completely, the predecessor store on the PS3 may have been simple, but at least it worked. One thing i'm really tired of is how when you're browsing on the store and the icons don't show up, especially when browsing through add-ons.
It's slow as shit on my pro too. I don't get how they haven't fixed this yet, it's so damn annoying if you want to buy some dlc/new game.
Can't talk about the X1 store, since I don't own one anymore, but in my memory that worked a lot faster.
Nintendo eShop at times loads slowly too, but nothing like the Sony one (prolly due to less users).
WOW!!! It's slow on the pro too??? And here I thought the issue may have been remedied somewhat on there. Just utterly ridiculous, especially because i got a the red dead ps4 pro on pre-order right now.
For me it's just the menus in general. Even moving around on my slim through home menus is so terrible at times. If there is truly one thing wrong with the PS4 that the Switch does well and I hope the PS5 does is cut down on bloated menu animations.By changing multiple times throughout the years of Internet provider, I've seen how finicky PSN is with connections that work perfectly while playing online or using apps. If you have any problem at all when loading the menu or the store, run a connection test under "Network" settings on the system. It will solve the slowdowns inmediately, and lasts 10 seconds or less.

Nah PSN is slow on Pro and it even just disconnect for some reason. It never happens on other store fronts. I'm on Nat 2 and wired.I have no clue what they are talking about because literally Sony regained the search engine to make it fast and it really is fast as fuck. Same goes for the store. If your internet isn't the best, it's obviously going to load slower.

We're better off using the web store although you can't use the exploit of using a CC outside of your region on web store.
Wow. Look at all that wasted space. Why do that?
I miss this store so much. They had to go and fucking ruin the PS3 one with the PS4 store as well.
