![]() It is however possible to automaticaly sync save games on a PS4 if you have the system set as the primary system. *Yawn* I'm tired, I'll play a bit more upstairs before bed.Ĭlick to shrink.Understood. The situation I'm describing is: i'm playing a game on my ps4 pro in the living room. Just give people the option to opt out of automatic downloads if they want. Wouldn't be an issue if it just synced all cloud data in the background, like literally everything else does in 2019. I've had this happen on my PS4 pro and launch model. It feels extremely outdated and cumbersome.Įdit: ALSO, sometimes uploading a cloud save takes ages and hangs/freezes progress, and I have to reboot my PS4 to get it to work properly. It's a fucking mess, ESPECIALLY in comparison to how it works between xboxes, PC's, or from Xbox to PC, where you literally don't have to think about saves at all, you just log in and play. Yeah it only takes a couple of minutes, which doesn't sound so bad in theory, but the hundredth time you do it it's agonizing, or when you get upstairs and realize you forgot to upload the save, so you have to go back downstairs, boot the ps4 and upload the save. Walk upstairs, turn on ps4, manually download the cloud save, continue playing. ![]() Go to the menu, upload cloud save, select the right save and upload it. What actually happens: I close the application. What should happen: I put the ps4 in rest mode, walk upstairs, turn on my other ps4 and continue. *Yawn* I'm tired, I'll play a bit more upstairs before bed. Have Microsoft commented on that? At least they didnt have it before on Xbox One.Ĭlick to shrink.The situation I'm describing is: i'm playing a game on my ps4 pro in the living room. I dont know why the Xbox doesn't have this feature. It might only work if the game has at least two different save games, otherwise "Select and Upload" might not be available.Īnd as a sidenote on the topic of game saves, i think its good that PS4 has the option to do local save backup as well. Then it says in the down right corner how much free space thats left. Everything is working fine now at least.Ībout space, how long will 100GB last? I've been playing hundreds of games since the PS3 days, and according to my PS4, i have 103.8GB left in the cloud storage lol :P I think the 1000 file limit is a more concern in comparision, but i think that should easily be fixed if more people run into that limit (so far, i've only heard of one person thats reached that limit).īy the way, how much space do you guys have left? You can check this by pressing option on a game, choose "Upload/Download Saved Data", and click on "Select and Upload". Is it known why you can auto-upload on a non primary console? Is it in case two people play the same game on the same account, that it shouldnt mess with overwriting two different save games? How does the Xbox handle such a situation? And why is the auto-upload feature on PS4 unreliable? I think maybe i had some "Couldn't upload to save storage" message on my PS4 some years ago, but i dont think i ever checked into it. I dont want the cloud saves to be auto downloaded to my system however, i want to have the control to do that myself in case i mess up in a game or can save hours upon hours of extra gameplay related to a trophy by manually downloading an older savegame, but i wouldnt mind if it was an option to have auto download of the save games of course. Its not like it takes much work to manually upload a savegame from a non-primary system for example, but i do agree that there could be some improvement done. Calling the situation described in the OP as terrible seems like a bit hyperbole to me.
