Controller Freeze-Hacked during Trials
This isn't a joke. This has happened to me twice now in the past two days, and I've never seen it before this Trials weekend. My screen drops to 0.5 FPS (a frame every two seconds) then my controller doesn't work. Light on the controller is still on, but no inputs work at all (can't even get to dashboard). PS4 doesn't turn off, either, as I tried the manual turn off button/touch thing and it just beeps rapidly. Could still party chat with my team, however, despite Destiny's audio ceasing.
Only solution I found was to remove the disc, and everything is back to normal.
Shame it chalks that up as a loss in Trials when I'm the victim of a hack...
If Bungie can't prevent it, I hope they can at least find a way to detect when it occurs so it will prevent the auto-loss and other team's inevitable victory...

Edited by Dismal Trauma: 7/30/2015 11:08:22 AMThis did happen to a team mate one match in ToO. I almost voted that I hadn't heard of this before then I remembered this happening. I can't say for certain that it was a hack or anything since I'm no expert on those things. I can give testimony though and say that we were playing beautifully until all the sudden at the start of a new match against the next team, one of our guys' controller stopped responding. It froze up even though it was fully charged; he also experienced a debilitating screen lock. He was essentially knocked out of the game while still being present and targetable. Not even the PS home button would engage. After 10 minutes of frantically searching for a solution so he could get in the game and help us he literally had no choice but to reset his PS4 to escape the lock, and then whadya know - as soon as he comes back into Destiny everything works as beautifully as it had been, and continued to every game after that. Considering that the only time I've ever witnessed this kind of thing happened to be during a match in the most competitive game mode Destiny has to offer, on our 7th game, and I have not seen it since neither in or out of Destiny I am inclined to lean towards it being a malicious manipulation of some sort - but of course I can't prove it. Oh, and yes we did end up destroying them 2vs3 and only allowed them to win 1 round (heavy, of course). It was a triumphant relief. So what ever hack or cheat they were employing it didn't work out well for them. Then again, could just be a fluke. Who knows!
