Well, here's what happened...

I went to play and it told me I needed to either create an account or log into an existing.
As I played the demo on the computer ages ago, I tried to recall that info. I failed.
I began making a new log in, but it wouldn't let me, as the email was associated with another account.
So I asked for a password recall. Ran upstairs to the computer, got password, ran back downstairs.
Seems the password they sent wasn't working.
So, changed the password. Again, up to the computer, back down to the PS4.
Still no dice.
SO! I made a new email account and eventually was able to register and get in.
Of course I can't use any of my normal game names - they're all tied to the unobtainable account.
Eventually I come up with a name.
I create my character, customized to the hilt.
I launch into game.
I am in 'queue position 1' and should be logged in in '1 second'.
Designers have a funny sense of timing. Eight, yes 8, minutes later I'm in.
Huzzah!
CRASH!
Back to square one as none of the previous info was saved.
After re-entering and re-creating...
I launch into game.
I am in 'queue position 1' and should be logged in in '1 second'.
About 12 minutes later...
I'm in some kind of a cell.
Huzzah! I'm playing.
CRASH!
Back to square one.
But!
Third times a charm.
Repeat all above.
This time '1 second' is about 5 minutes.
I'm in!
I manage to get three steps.
CRASH!

So!
Determined, I go to the Euro server.
Repeat all of the above.
I just want to see the f%^k*(g thing work at this point.
It loads, it works, sketchilly.
I shut it down after 10 minutes play.

Loaded at 6pm.
Got into game at 8:45pm on a different country's server.

I have no idea what this game is like.
It should have a warning on the front for those with blood pressure and/or cardiac conditions.

You'd think that given the PC version has been out for well over a year now that their launch on consoles would be silky smooth. Sorry to hear otherwise.
Hope they get their shit together quickly, Oz :/

Well, last night was much better.
I logged into the US server and was kicked out for timing issue 3 times.
I logged into the Euro server and was able to play for about 6 minutes before a disconnect.

The reason it was much better is that I didn't spend 3 hours trying to get into game.
I just loaded up the Witcher for 2 hours and finished the night with a round of BF4.

I may actually use my Best Buy Elite status for the first time to return a game.
