<\/p>\nPLAYSTATION owners can stop three common problems from ruining their gaming session.<\/p>\n
Check your PS5 settings now to make sure you're not making any common mistakes.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
One of the biggest gaming nightmares is when you log in to play a title and it needs an update.<\/p>\n
Some games require huge updates before you can play them.<\/p>\n
And if you've only got a short time to play, you might find yourself locked out entirely.<\/p>\n
Thankfully you can simply set your games to automatically update so that this doesn't happen.<\/p>\n
Go to Settings > System > System Software Update and Settings to make sure automatic updates are turned on.<\/p>\n
Then do the same in Settings > Saved Data and Game Settings.<\/p>\n
It'll only work if you leave your PS5 in Rest Mode.<\/p>\n
To set Rest Mode up properly, go to Settings > System > Power Saving > Features<\/span> > Available in Rest Mode.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Then when you turn your PS5 off in future<\/span>, choose Rest Mode.<\/p>\n Another gaming nightmare is when you get stuck \u2013 especially if it's on a tricky puzzle.<\/p>\n You can struggle for hours on it, potentially killing any enjoyment you were getting from the game.<\/p>\n That's why Sony invented a feature called Game Help that can give you a nudge in the right direction.<\/p>\n It's only available to PS Plus subscribers, so make sure you have an active membership first.<\/p>\n Then when you get stuck in a game, press the PS button on your DualSense controller.<\/p>\n If the PlayStation title is supported by Game Help, a hint card will appear.<\/p>\n Tap it and you'll be able to choose the objective and hint using L1\/R1.<\/p>\n You can also pin these hints to the side of the screen so you can keep playing with the clues visible.<\/p>\n Like movies, video games can have thrilling and twisty storylines.<\/p>\n So seeing a spoiler for a game you're playing can ruin your fun.<\/p>\n A clip or screenshot could appear on your Home Screen that reveals something important about a future point in a game's story.<\/p>\n Similarly, a\u00a0PlayStation\u00a0friend could message you with a screenshot that reveals a future part of a game.<\/p>\n But it's very easy to set up Spoiler Warnings on your PS5.<\/p>\n Go to Settings > Saved Data and Game\/App Settings > Spoiler Warnings.<\/p>\n Then turn on Warn About Game Spoilers.<\/p>\n You can choose either Only Spoilers Identified By Game Developers, or Everything You Haven't Seen Yet.<\/p>\n But be warned: this only works for PS5 games and not older titles.<\/p>\nMost read in Gaming<\/h2>\n
