Destiny remote play on PS Vita

My situation... I want to play destiny while at work because I live at work.. Literally. I work on an offshore rig for 7 days on then go home for 7 days. Those 7 days off I try to get as much Destiny play time as possible but never enough. I'm close enough to shore (8 miles) to get 4g connection on my phone and it's good enough signal to play Netflix and such. We also have a wifi hotspot I can use but it's the type that brings you to a web page to log in. I ran across a YouTube video of the PS Vita and the remote play feature for Destiny and this caught my attention and instantly I want 1 to play Destiny at work. Am I understanding how this remote play feature works? Example: ps4 connected to Internet at home, ps vita connected to Internet at work and I can play my copy of Destiny that is currently in my ps4 at home. Does it actually work good enough for me to run patrols and do bounties ect..?? Will I be able to connect to my wifi at work if it's the type that takes you to a web page to log in? Please reply with answers/thoughts on this and explanations if I'm completely wrong on how this works. Thanks

  • I feel your pain! I work on a tugboat and have a wife and kid at home. So not much destiny time. But you are in luck. I bought a ps vita 2 days ago. It's outstanding at home so I thought I would try the remote play at work. We don't have wifi but I used my phones hotspot to connect to my ps vita for Internet access and then connected that to my ps4 via remote play.. I have 4G lte service because I'm on a boat that works in town. But I ran patrol missions and a strike before I had to actually work. After I connected my ps vita to my phone I did a speed test on the vita and got like 7 down and 6 up so it wasn't too bad. I just recommend having your ps4 wired directly to your internet. Not wireless. You need a fast connection at home to make this work better. Remember to leave your ps4 in standby mode so you can use remote play. And remember to link the vita and ps4 at home. It works great for me. And when your done playing you just put the ps4 back in standby mode. It was awesome! Seriously! If there are people complaining it's because of a bad connection. The controls are mapped great! I do recommend getting the holder for the vita that looks like the controller. It made 100% difference in game play. Good luck!
