They didn't. An issue was fixed, but it wasn't that one.
They do aknowledge the issue and are currently working on it with Sony.

But yes, it took too much time for them to aknowledge the issue. They were very stuborn about this... telling folks it was Hard drive issue and some people on the support are still answering that. Lack of communication inside the compagny?
Yet, it was very easy to check/reproduce... just remove the power cable while Ps4 is on.

IF your depending on a gaming console it's to be expected. PC all the way will always give you less problems. Also the 22g being on Sony's end is no surprised. They have been having issues since preparing for update.

Same thing just happened to me, but unlike you guys, I didn't lose power at all. My PS4 froze up while I was browsing the PS store on the console. I had to force it to power off, and now this morning, this happens. Isn't this the same issue? Cause my system was updated before this happened to me.

[Follow-up]Regarding an Ongoing Issue with the PlayStation®4 Version (Jun. 15): Follow-up
This is a follow-up regarding the issue wherein players on the PlayStation®4 version receive a “CE-30022-7” error when attempting to launch the game after updating.

The results of the investigation we performed with Sony Interactive Entertainment show that this error occurs when the following conditions have been met.

■Conditions that lead to the error
・Making an entire backup of or restoring the data on the PlayStation®4 system when FINAL FANTASY XIV is installed.
・Transferring data from another PlayStation®4 when FINAL FANTASY XIV is installed.

Since it has been confirmed that this issue can be addressed by updating the PlayStation®4 system software, we had Sony Interactive Entertainment perform a PlayStation®4 system software update on Jun. 22, 2017.

We apologize for the inconvenience, but due to these circumstances, we ask that user of the PlayStation®4 version please update their PlayStation®4 system software to the latest version.

*If users are currently experiencing this issue and a CE-30022-7 error occurs, the issue will be resolved without having to reinstall FINAL FANTASY XIV by updating the PlayStation®4 system software.

I realized this was a different error they were talking about about ten minutes after posting this. Thanks for setting me straight.

It's apparently not the same error as the one "fixed" by the latest firmware update. All we can do is hope they fix it soon.

Still having this problem even after the update, same thing happened to a friend of mine today. Have had power outages while playing before the expansion and never had that trouble so I've no clue whats going on now.

But yes, a system freeze would be the same problem as all of us. Any type of improper shutdown will cause this as far as I know.

PC gaming is a joke in the country I'm in. It's pretty much used for H-Games and Dating Sims. Nobody here is arguing about PC vs Console.

We're all pissed that we have to deal with 10-24 hour download times for something outside of our control.

nothing yet..... what is SE doing, I had to buy a ups power supply just in case, I live on a budget and I made sure to include ffxiv on that budget and this is ridiculous.


I just wish that they fix this and get over with it

Where are they acknowledging this issue? They need to put it on the lodestone login to at least let players know that this is something they are working on. Right now seeing 60 pages of this thread, is very daunting for players on PS4.

The power went out at the place sometime last night and I've encountered this issue along with other PS4 players that have had power outages.
The patch H2017.06.06.0000.0001 will download, if you have to cancel out it adds a letter to the end of the file ie 0001a, 0001b etc...

It would be greatly appreciated if this was posted so that players are aware that it's being worked on, instead of having them frustrated since the latest notice doesn't address this specific issue.

Sigh I think you took it the wrong way, gaming consoles such as PS3/4 or XBOX based might be great for online gaming, as long as the servers aren't over contested. However a PC based game has more comparability reliability than most being parts can be upgraded. For gaming consoles to run a game at a set setting must go through a lot of testing. While Stormblood may have passed those specs it doesn't change the fact that it's going into an over crowed servers specially at a launch of a new expansion. Also that is to be expected with any online game specially MMO's. Patches will continue so still not sure why people are surprised. 22g can be considered the size for SB. If there are too many people trying to download patches common sense would tell you, your not special and time will be needed to download a patch. I was able to download patch during low peek hours and took me only 25min at most. I use my PS4 as a back up when I travel so it may just be your area as well and how service works around you. If people still haven't learned the nature of the beast at least they should be able to understand that this is common for online play, gaming consoles, and any type of expansions. Ever tried VPN?

22.7 gigs is a large patch, especially considering all I us posting aren't first time players and this is all of thebpatches from arr to stormblood.

Also for example my internet is horrid because of the area of the country I live in, and I have capped internet.

This bug is not common for mmo releases, especially considering you do not even have to be playing ffxiv for it to trigger.

And trust me ibunderstand time is important, but there is a diffence between 6 gig patch and a 22 gig.

I did not have a power outage or anything been playing everyday since early access and logged in today and now have to wait for this freaking update this is so fustrating...

Hence a fix from sony in order to run it. Can always mod the gaming console to an external HHD. for FFXIV if your tech savvy enough.

just had power surge so now I have the download as well.

That's a moot point, considering the servers are cross-platform.

However, Sony's system updates have been nothing short of garbage within the last year.
There was a mass hacking that took place in October and they denied it happening. Their support forums were filled with threads along the lines of "I got hacked" and I guess that didn't happen. There was the 4.5 update that happened in March that caused about 80% of console player's connections to randomly lag every minute or so, making online shooters and other live sorta games almost unplayable... and now this update, the people that weren't getting an issue, suddenly are, and the people that had the issue before, it still isn't fixed. Honestly, if I had a computer suitable for gaming, I'd be on it right now. Atleast it's 100% in Square's power to fix the issues with that platform, rather than have to work with Sony to have to deal with it.

We were able to confirm the issue that occurs when the PS4 loses power in an unusual manner. As such, we've been working closely with Sony Interactive Entertainment to further investigate the problem. In the meantime, we ask that users do their best to shut down the console normally whenever possible. We know there are instances beyond your control, like power outages, and we sincerely apologize for the frustration this continues to cause.

We'll update again as soon as we have more information to share.

Can you please post this on the Lodestone Launcher. I think it's important for players to know and that the recent Software update for PS4 is for a different issue.

I just bought one myself, I've lost power nemerous times before and have never had to download like this.

Explain this more in depth please. Where can I find this information?

I just had a power outage and i'm downloading now again ps4......im upset because it's the weekend and i was looking forward to get a lot done in game. :(

Just bought Injustice 2. Sorry SE thus is far too much of a disappointing game since Stirmbkood that I have to download a 22 gig file that takes me days with my internet to get. Bye, not looking back!

Same thing happened to me this morning. Small storm, power flicked, and had to download 22 gigs after turning the PS4 back on ;.; I really hope they fix this.

My daughter and I both play this on PS4. We both logged out last night, her around 12:30am, I around 3am, both PST. Today she logged in around 1 pm PST and has been playing ever since, but I just tried to log in 5pm PST and have to download the 22747.41 patch. Why didn't my daughters PS4 require the download? Something occurred server side between the hours of 12:30 am and 3am PST? No power outages here, and both systems were shut down following proper procedure. SE, what has happened to Japanese integrity and honor?

Quick update on possible cause. The day stormblood came out my daughters download was 33 gig, my download was only 22 gig. So perhaps the issue lies in the initial 11 gig. Perhaps I should bite the bullet and delete and reinstall the entire game. What a f'n waste of time. Thanks SE. Oh, btw I bought this game day 1, way back when. Glad SE values committed customers.

Can someone who know how to do coding and maintenance help poor Square Enix out with this problem? I think they need help. Someone help these guys.

Is there at least someone who can give us an update to this issue or an estimated time for patch? I understand stuff happens but I have a bandwith limit. The only update ive seen is with the CE-30022-7 error which is not the same as the random "Redownload 22 gigs" error

It occurs to me that they did just migrate from Toronto to Texas.
That's a big deal, an international move to new laws most likely.
Bound to be some problems.
Bus Srsly se you're not giving much to back u up with anymore.

This situation did happen to me today. Downloading the 22GB all over again. Please Square Enix fix the problem it's very frustrating. :(

Yeah, power flickered during download. unable to finish download sad day again. I hope this gets patched sometimes soon or else... yeah

Literally had no problems from Friday until today including log out and PS4 being turned off, but I got suckered into a few rounds of overwatch and when I put the ffxiv disc back in the ARR logo came up and it did a preparing sequence and eventually went back to SB but now I have the same 22.7 gig download

Wow. Yep. Husband and i lost power for 1 Second during a lakshimi farm. If there ever was a need for compensation. Its this. Losing 2 days of sub because of this just isn't right.

950 minutes remaining on the 22.7 GB portion. How much is there after this?

I lied it's 1300 now.

I really hope they are working on this issue. The lodestone mentions PSN maintenance, but I still have yet to see them address the problem.

Wish I knew what Lakshimi was. This is day 10 for some of these people.

I'm still fighting with trying to get it patched tried a hotspot and everything else I can try Wi-Fi related and still almost constant unable to download patch files.square really needs to get this fixed cause it's wasted $ if I can't play

*sighs* yup. Add me to the ever increasing list :(

Just saw they were doing 'PSN' maintenance tomorrow, maybe that will fix this problem? Here is to hopin'!!

This just happened to me after power failure. The full game size still displays as 69gb but once launched it downloads Stormblood again. I have tried rebuilding database but no change. Downloading it now hoping it works once done

This just happened to me today as well. My power went out for a split second and now I have to download everything again.
