Now add WoW, CS Go and some other PC centric games and you'll have a lot of new customers.

Not afaik. You can link your account and transfer voice calls to the PS5 is about the sum of it.

Oh ok...so it's like what Xbox has then. Well, it's a start. Buncha my buddies are on PS5 and we can only talk if they hop on their Xbox and transfer the call or use Xbox Voice chat because it's also on PC. Would be cool to have folks in discord who can stream PS5 games to the group and the like.

Thank goodness! I joined reddit to spread the message of love for the game but got banned from a gaming subreddit - Gaming Circle Jerk. It hurt my feelings, I tell ya.

To check all your trophies you go to your profile icon -> trophies. Pretty easy. Checking trophies for the specific game you're currently playing was a bit cumbersome before, but they recently (before this update) added a card specifically for that in the quick menu.

How to Use Discord Voice on PS5
Now that your Discord and PlayStation accounts are all cozy and connected, it’s time to talk with your Discord friends on your PS5.On mobile, slide up the Voice controls and you’ll see a new button that says “Join on PlayStation.” On desktop, the button looks sort of like a phone and a game controller next to each other.
Next, you’ll be asked to choose which console that you want to transfer your Voice conversation to. Gamer Magic happens in the background and BOOM, your PS5 is where your conversation takes place at.
On console, you’ll be able to use all the familiar controls from Discord: mute or lower the volume of others while you get a snack, see the name of the voice channel you’re vibin’ in and hang up the call once you’re done — and it’s even faster to get talking with your DualSense™ controller’s built-in microphone.
I don't know what any of this means, I might get Discord and try it.

Shame it's absolutely busted as usual.
Apparently I've played 7 hours of witcher 3 since I started the beta. More like 30 hours.
1440p VRR 60hz is busted on my display. Top of the screen is out of sync. But issue doesn't happen on 120hz. Works fine on 4k 60 or 120hz.
Also 1440p vrr 60hz works fine on my series x.

I don't get why this thing is so broken. Wouldn't it be as simple the console os tracking the time the game is open. Maybe there is some power of the cloud magic happening that keeps busting it.
100% equates to you beating the game. It's not based on trophy progression but main story completion.

Wireless controller update is nice. Not that it really bothered me to have to plug it in, but this is better.

I still don’t even know what discord is.
Don't care about Discord or 1440p but the OTA updates for controllers is cool. It's also nice that you can see how many hours you have played each game, which friends have the game and how far you're into completing the main campaign.
You can also sort titles in folders which is good if you have folders with a lot of games inside.

Not sure why companies don't try to be more transparent and work on features that are highest voted on. Pretty easy customer service aspect to implement, even if you skip some top things that aren't feasible.

This feature was already in the profile menu, but for me it keeps displaying numbers that are too low and it's happening to multiple games. Like recently for Ishin it's showing 40 hours, but the in-game clock shows almost 65. And it's not the case of the stats not being updated yet, because the games I've played in December or January (like Midnight Suns or Dead Space Remake) also have wrong numbers.

There is an option to shut it off lol. That is the first thing I did along with the irritating selection noise.

WTF, my PS5 won’t read discs anymore after this update… Probably unrelated but yeah not reading games or movies anymore…

It's the same thing as g sync or freesync but as open HDMI standard.

How is nobody complaint how terrible the discord integration is? You still have to use your phone to enter the channel, then transfer the audio to your PlayStation. What a waste. I thought the discord app would be built into the PlayStation.

It's the same as the initial xbox integration, do expect the current xbox integration to come to PS at some point.

So I tested it out and though it's pretty simple to use, it's hard to figure out the first time.
Plus I'm really not a fan that you have to use your phone to launch it on the console. I though it was going to be a native app.

Do we know if we will ever be able to stream from your ps5 into the discord channel.

Yep still no support for 1440P VRR without HDMI 2.1, which is super annoying. Not sure why they can't enable that other then them being a stickler towards TV standards and certifications.
Still with the new update, PS5 now detects my monitor at 1440P with FreeSync enabled.. when before it only saw as 1080P. Which is much nicer than having to constantly change settings when switching between PC and consoles.

I don't get why they don't enable freesync, they have good contacts with AMD and it would probably cost them nothing.
Plus it should allow to bypass 48Hz limitation. What else is missing on PS5 is ability to force 120hz output on system level and low frame rate compensation (this would come with freesync).

True. Though this is the same company that, despite trying to branch out towards different markets (PC, recently) took two years to support 1440P. And we only got, due to constant requests as wanted features go.
Still a massive oversight to ignore Freesync though since most 1440P 144hz+ monitors are HDMI 2.0. Can't imagine it being hard to implement. MS and Xbox has supported that since Xbox One :l

Yeah I'm not sure why it's not using what the profile is already using. Weird.

This update is a step in the right direction but ultimately disappointing.
I tried it out yesterday but as mentioned above , it’s really just voice that has been added.
My friend wanted me to show him demon souls and i hoped I could screen share, but learned that the only way to do this right now is still to use ps remote play on your pc and share your screen on discord.
I was really hoping this update would have included screen share from ps5 to the discord channel too, and not just voice communication.
