    Four crashes in one hour of play time PS4 Pro.

    ...plus twice shutting it down for the dreaded "PS4 pops n' clicks' issue that apparently exists only in my imagination.

    Today, I fancied a game of Rocksmith as it's been a while. I decided to go way back to old RS1 songs, and play some songs I'd forgotten were even in the library. Three times after playing I returned to the song menu, only to find no previews were playing. Then I'd select a song and it would fail to load, but I'd be stuck with just the 'speakers' either side of the screen and nothing else. This caused a PS4 reset twice. The third time the previews stopped, I tried exiting all the way out to the splash screen but this didn't remedy the issue and I had to restart again.

    The fourth time was a hard crash with an error code (I didn't write it down but I sent the report to Sony).

    What's going on? Why the hell is this game buggier now that it's ever been?

    In another thread players mentioned that they found issues with static and popping when leaving the cable plugged in over night. The recommendation is to generally watch for static by making sure to unplug the cable after use (and leave it hanging somewhere without static), making sure to not touch the metal end of the cable, and making sure to plug in the guitar end followed by the PS4 end.

    Most guitar performances do not happen on carpet.

    For the crashes you'd want to perform PS4 troubleshooting. Do you play any other games?
