I could have scratched it off but a small bit of electrical tape seemed less destructive. Should have done it a long time ago and I highly recommend it for others (for PC anyway) as it reflects off every fucking thing unless you can use it under a desk or something

yeah me too Laughing
The tape would leave a glue if You will take it off someday.
What I would do, is to open the controller and disconnect the light or put something inside to block it.

but still - thats better than just ripping it apart Laughing

I've had electrical tape leave a real sticky gluey mess after time. Not sure if it was cheap tape or due to heat. But it can leave a real mess. Black masking tape would be safer.

I don't understand why they didn't include a setting to turn it off. The only time I find it annoying though is when it reflects from the tv screen back at you.

Remember when Sony said the LightBar couldn't be turned off because "Reasons®"? Apparently those reasons have been revealed....

http://uk.ign.com/articles/2014/05/08/dualshock-4-light-bar-created-for-project-morpheus

Quote:

Ashforth revealed the light bar was included because of the development of Project Morpheus, though the secretive nature of the headset caused issues when complaints about the bar started to flood in.

“The tracking light… it was our department that said we need that on,” said Ashforth. “It was for tracking for VR, and when all these things were coming out six months ago and everyone was going ‘it’s reflecting in my TV,’ we were going ‘oh no’ because we couldn’t tell anyone what it was for.”

well i always thought the led´s main function was regarding the ps4 camera, after all when i play the playroom, the led light is basically the part you aim with, vaccuum robots or toss them out etc.
also when you login via face recognition, your face and the led light have to be in view, then you are logged in with your account and as player blue or whatever.

The fact that it was for VR was a secret? Wasn't that obvious?

@garus

Yeah, that's used in tandem with the PS Eye and games that use motion functionality - pretty much like the Wiimote or PS Move. What Sony are talking about now is the Morpheus VR headset.

Aye, pretty much though I still don't know why Sony doesn't offer an "off" function. Some games use the light as gameplay indicators but that's all optional - not everyone owns the Eye, nor will own the Morpheus, so why it can't be disabled on command I just don't know.
