PS4 Game Developers Conference Info

[Rekkapryde]

*drops Flex Bombs*




No one in the meeting room can record audio/video, but they are allowed to tweet...

============
#PS4 UI is meant to give you at a glance info without loading the game. See what new DLC is out and whatnot. What friends are saying. #GDC

#PS4 RAISES THE PSN FRIEND LIMIT. #GDC

"The #PS4 Eye will enhance the PS4 user experience.” High sensitivity dual color cameras – 1280x800, 12 bits/pixel, 60Hz #GDC” (Eye will ship with every PS4, but is connected via a proprietary cable - not usb). But it is OPTIONAL.

Dedicated port for the #PS4 camera, exclusive SCE Connector. Means it won't use a USB port on the console, but won't plug into your PC

At PS4 dev talk. Platform is 64-bit x86. Dev environment is Win7 64-bit VS2010, LLVM/Clang with C++11 support.

#PS4 will charge controllers when it's off. Unlike the PS3

#GDC #PS4 new UI Looks a little AppleTV Netflix app with social integration crossed with flipboard

The #PS4 will show the player's network at boot by default.

Possible #PS4 Camera Magic – Sees the controller, you guys move, splitscreen moves to be on the right side. #GDC

""Core gamers are our primary audience.” #PS4 build around them, salable to the outsiders. #GDC "


Have to enable people seeing your real name on the #PS4 . Auto-enabled if you import from another social network. (Can be turned off)

#PS4 Controller buttons are going back to digital over analog because no one used it on PS3. #GDC

All the #PS4 streaming and sharing: that's on the hardware. Devs don't have to do anything special to their game. #GDC

Remote play for #PS4 games is BOTH via local network and/or Internet.

#PS4 Remote Play: Screens are mirrored on PS4/Vita (Both on at same time). Hardware does it/not on devs. Start at any time; no special mode.

Talking about the @PlayStation App. Login, buy game, #PS4 starts downloading at home, you get home and start playing the part that's DWLD.

At GDC, Sony just gave every attendee of its PS4 press conference a Vita or a year of PS+.

True name will automatically show of added through Facebook or True Name search, but that option can be modified. #PS4

Every player on #PS4 will have two identities: true names (& picture) and PSN ID (& avatar). Player decides how true name is show.






We're not worthy Kaz....

Another couple of tidbits...
===============

Controller keeps a copy of the user profile (don't lose that shyt though... )

The spectator mode enabled by the Share button on the DualShock 4 controller is built into the PS4 hardware, so developers don't need to code it for every game. Users can send comments while they're spectating on a game. And a long press on the Share button will take a screenshot. The light bar on the controller will be illuminated in a color that represents which player's controller it is: blue for player 1, red for player 2, green for player 3 and pink for player 4 — like the X, circle, triangle and square face buttons

Most of this sounds nice, nothing new or exciting safe step with innovation when it comes to OS features
