Letzte Woche hat Sony den Beta-Test zur nächsten PS4-Systemsoftware 4.50 gestartet und schon einige interessante Features vorgestellt. Als Hauptfeature kann ohne Zweifel die Unterstützung von externen Festplatten genannt werden, obwohl es hier offensichtlich noch zu Problemen kommen kann. Ausserdem ist mittlerweile auch bekannt, dass nur eine externe Festplatte genutzt werden kann. Es ist also nicht möglich, dass ihr gleich mehrere Festplatten für das Auslagern der Daten nutzt.
Sony hat jetzt den offiziellen Changelog zur Beta-Firmware veröffentlicht, auf dem alle Neuerungen und Verbesserungen aufgeführt werden. Der Changelog ist bisher nur in englischer Sprache verfügbar, möchten diesen aber euch nicht vorenthalten.
Ist jemand von euch am Beta-Test dabei? Seid ihr zufrieden mit der neuen Systemsoftware?
