Just a couple of points, you can highlight npcs/stash in town regardless of guys in the way with R3 default

I am aware of this...still clunky as fuck though and should be the other way around.

and you can stop gems from leveling by highlighting them in inventory, its an option shown per gem there (forgot button though).

This i did not know, i'll look for it when i'm next on the ps4 version.

That being said. seems the game is slightly watered down (or beefed up depending on your view) seem to hit harder or monsters have less health and over all don't hit you quite so hard, so over all leveling atm feels prety smooth.

As far as i can tell there is no way to not level a skill, it just dose it automaticaly, so stuff like CWDT can't be kept at level 5 (or any other level)

You can select the gem in your gear and "turn off auto-level" for the gem. When you want to level it you just turn it on and turn it off again one level at a time.

I actually wish they would put this in the PC version of the game.

the PS4 poe is really unplayable now
GGG need to fix performance first of all
I crashed 3 times in LAb...wtf(

The flasks thing is prety bad.

Stuff like leap slamming out of danger is not going to happen due to auto targeting monsters (might be better with whirling blades of flame dash)

In town, trying to interact with NPC's or the waypoint/stash is bothersome if any player is near them becuase it highlights them instead.

Simmilarly you can't really snatch an item if there is any monster close by it.

MTX pricing (at least in the UK) is wrong the two $60 dollar packs for synsethis are £57.99, while the core $60 pack is £45.

The latency/mode of sync is not particularly good and you can't do anything about it.
Seems the game is using predictive sync and quite often monsters are displayed in front of you but no amount of swining will hit them becuase they are not actualy there.

Not a fan of the UI, in inventory it is very cluttered...so much so that sometimes you can barley even see what you are highlighting.

Not crashed yet though.

Have been asking for the leap slam change to not autotarget by default for many months now on xbox, no result. You have the L2, if you trigger it, it should not auto target, but it locks you in place for a short moment, so its a bit annoying, i wish they would make it L2 leap slam target locks and without you just jump in the direction your facing max distance or maybe even depending on how far you move your LS.

if you socket a gem, you can go into the item gems with the circle and then triangle to activate deactivate the auto leveling. It works quite well with cwdt.

Whirling blades is causing perma desyncs and rubberbanding on console, so its unusable. Leap slam we already had the issue with targeting + desync as well. Shield charge is always full distance. Best actually is flame dash, phase run + movement speed.

I filed probably about 20 crash reports yet to sony, playing on a ps4 pro. I really hope that crash report spam, will make sony force ggg to finally address some of the crashes we are facing since xbox release.

I had this issue but if you hit the Button for Sockets and Look at the Gem it has a Button at the bottom to Deactivate auto leveling think it Y on box and Triangle on PS4? Ive been playing both with my kids one kid is playing PS4 and the other Xbox so youll have to excuse me on exactly which key for which but yeah it will say at the bottom list of keys to deactivate auto leveling for gems and it will show a padlock on the gem from them on.

That was about to my first gripe till i found this myself. Getting used to the controller after all this time on PC is harder than i expected. hahaha

Con supporter packs is very expensive

I can only say "AWESOME", i dont have PS4 Pro with ssd , i have regular PS4 slim and POE workin smooth and with short loading time, all the best

I am very disappointed with the PS4 version.

Weird button mapping. Extremely unintuitive X, O, square and triangle mappings, if you've played several console games and are used to the commonly used configuration. Like select for sale usind the square, and confirm by a single X press? Huh?

If there are at least three items/players/objects nearby, you will never highlight the one you want.

Lag, lag, lag, and once again lag during combat and movement.

Targetting is horrible. Melee attacks hit the air, while the enemy is right in front of me. Spells fly in random directions, however the left stick is aimed.

The persont who thought that inventory management is OK is insane. Unless you wanted us to spend more time trying to arrange oversided items in a tiny space, than actual playing. And/or having to spam town portals to go back and forth to sell the items.

Bad explanation of how orbs work. I tried applying them on items, and nothing happens. There's no feedback to tell the player, what is he doing wrong.

I am really underwhelmed. After half an hour I lost all interest in the game, as I was spending more time fighting the interface and controls than the enemies.

Keybinds are horrible pots should be x o square rriangle skills should be r1 r2 l1 l2 weapon swap should be r3+l3 and non menu loot navigation should be touchpad navigationable inventoey should be touchpad navigationable aswell proper trading menu separate similar to poe/trade

Life and mana should both be on bottom left right like on pc with pots to the right or left dependable on what you want

Exp should be bottom middle as a more visible bar with skills in middle as l1 r1 r2 l2 with touchpad navigation to easillt swap skills and view tooltips
Pickup items in inventory should be x and not triangle easier navigation to gem swap using the touchpad navigation

Fix camera a tiny bit up so char is more scentered since its console

Add chat for global trade and guild and friends pm easier navigation to friends within options button on ps pad add r3 as locked attack instead of l2 add chat as directional button lrud prophecy hotkey as lrud map hotkey as lrud like it already is add emotes hotkey to lrud add secondary skill tray with l3 add more shortcuts depending on what you can customize yourself in a controller setup menu also add possibility to view the overlay map with touchpad
