Some fans who had not logged into GTA Online since 2013 were troubled to find that they were unable to transfer their account to the new PlayStation 4 or Xbox One versions as promised. Rockstar Games is working hard to address the problem as quickly as possible, per updates on its support page.

Gamers that haven’t played in 2014 were greeted with “No previous Grand theft Auto Online data is associated with your Social Club account” when they tried to get back into the game with the new version. Rockstar subsequently released a patch for PlayStation 3 and PS4 users today, and will do so for Xbox consoles tomorrow. Until then PS4 and XB1 users can still log in to GTA Online, but cannot yet transfer old characters.

Stay tuned to Rockstar’s support page for regular updates on the progress in fixing the error.

The hype around PSVR 2 has largely died off just a year after its launch, though there's no denying it’s a cool piece of tech.

There haven't been many complaints about Xbox Series S since it launched in 2020.

How to fix ‘servers at capacity’ error in Helldivers 2
A Helldivers 2 player fires a laser canon.

Helldivers 2 is a ton of fun to play, but the game isn’t without its small list of issues. One of these maladies is an error code that reads “servers at capacity.” If you’ve ever seen this pop-up window, you’ll know just how frustrating it can be to get around. But as far as fixes go, there's not much one can do when it comes to getting around this roadblock.
Can you fix the servers at capacity error?

Unfortunately, this is one error in Helldivers 2 that you have no power over. This issue falls on the game being just too popular for the game's servers to keep up with. A statement posted by developer Arrowhead in its official Discord said: "Our team is working around the clock to solve these issues. While we've been able to mitigate some of the causes, we are still struggling to keep up with the scaling that is needed to accommodate all our Helldivers. Therefore, we’ve had to cap our concurrent players to around 450,000 to further improve server stability. We will continue to work with our partners to get the ceiling raised.”
