PS5 System Software Update Version 20.02-02.50.00 is live
- Thread starter Saint of Killers
- Start date
I was commenting earlier that my PS5 media remote died right after installing this update... but after leaving it alone for a few days (with the batteries out if that matters) and then trying a third set of batteries that were freshly charged it is working normally again.
In the end, it seems smart delivery wasn't just a marketing term for crossbuy by Microsoft, my Xbox Series X hasn't installed any Xbox One version of a game supporting Smart Delivery since launch.
Strangely this only started happening to me today after updating it the day that update came out. Could be because today was the first day since then that I did a big download.
Now after about an hour the wi-fi just goes completely. Shame really as I had to resort to wi-fi after the terrible "LAN cable not connected" issues I had before.
I'm hoping it supports it by the time Ratcher and Clank arrives. Would be nice to have an unlocked mode.
I haven't had a disc in the system in a while, so I'm not sure if it's still doing it, but it was mostly doing it when I was playing a "free upgrade" game to check if the disc was still there I think.
Early on though, it would check for a disc every hour-ish regardless of what I was playing.
I would think it's meant for the free upgrade stuff so people don't just borrow a disc from somewhere and then have a free PS5 game once their get rid of the disc?
I've only been playing Division 2 since the update but that game is very dark now. I hope it's not across all games. :(
Damn :( I hope they are aware of this and don't take too long to fix it.
The black crush issue happens for sure. Not sure if it's in every game, but even on PS4 games was noticeable.
I played Infamous Second Son and it was really noticeable. Concrete Genie i don't seem to have it as bad.

Not on every game for sure. Division 2 has it, but it may be related to that game's recent own update that also messed up other visual features.
Allstars, ManEater, RDR 2, GT sport, Last Guardian are fine. They look the same as before the patch for me. I have not changed anything in terms of HDR, TV settings or anything at all.

My Remote acts up from time to time too, I had to reboot my Ps5 for it to start working correctly again.
Most games run at locked 60, the list of games that can go to 120 and could take advantage of VRR is pretty short. Even the NIOH remaster is mostly locked at 120 in that mode. It's low on the priority list.
I honestly wouldn't expect it for a couple years or so. It's an even more niche feature than 1440p and Sony doesn't implement stuff in a hurry.
Yeah, the games have super long version numbers too. Annoying.
Just saw your post. I was seeing the same errors you were and weeks before the last system update.
In my experience it is related to the batteries being low on juice. I was confused because it was glitching only after a couple months of light daily use. Once I put a fresh pair of batteries in, I was able to pair it again and it's worked great ever since.
My theory was that the batteries that come with it were old, low, or the remote just pulls a lot of energy and thrashes batteries quickly.
This update only fixed the lack of volumetric fog on the PS5.
On the Ubisoft forum, the Community Manager confirmed that this update was to fix the missing volumetric fog on the PS5.
Black crush is continues to be a problem in Division 2, it is an issue with Hitman 3 (Dartmoor, and Berlin are far too dark). Control is another game that continues to be far too dark (but at least runs without constant crashing like the XSX version). I have all three of these games on both the PS5 and XSX and the black crush continues to be an issue on the PS5. This needs to be addressed by Sony and people need to stop making excuses and suggesting people raise their brightness levels.
I don't know, they look a lot better in this test of the latest patch. 6 min mark
I can't test until the freeze is over.

The batteries that come with it are extremely light, I assume they have a very small capacity. My remote has been working fine but it still occasionally gives that error about connecting it to the console or that it isn't supported. But it still works.
