Unable to complete version check on PS4

[Sparky]

I think this is ridiculous to have to re-download the client. A simple 1GB or 2GB update should have sufficed, especially as I seem to recall reading assurances from Square Enix that we wouldnt have to redownload the software. Instead of a relatively small update we instead have to jump through a hoop to play this by downloading the full client at 12GB! Really?

If you have downloaded the Beta during the aforementioned time, you will need to return to PlayStation®Store and make your purchase again to resolve the issue. You will not need to re-download the software.

Ok, so why are we getting the version check error, and why are we having to redownload the software? Lies I tell you.

Some of us don't have particularly fast internet! I'm not the bill payer for my connection so I don't have the luxury to pick and choose which service I can use. That 12GB client will take me 5 hours to download, and it will hog bandwidth while it does so. This is completely retarded.
