Yeah this sucks especially for people who have ISPs like Comcast that have data caps, I already had to redownload the game on Friday because of the corrupt bootloader issue how I have to download it again...
They'll probably fix it eventually but I am hoping sooner rather than later. This is absolutely ridiculous.

So im not the only one wow this release is just horrible
Curious to see how many replies this topic need to get a answer from the staff...
I'm still downloading since my 1st post... 10gb now... T-T
I'm so frustraded...
I have spent the past 12 hours trying to get past Pipin to have a power outage and need to download 22749.42 of data. I have a ridiculous download speed of 0.20 MB/s and I now have 2500 minutes remaining for a game that i cant progress in the main story, thanks SE.
Yesterday it happen to me, when playing i got power outage for a couple of seconds and when i login back. I must redownload 22.7GB patch.
After 7 hours of redownloading, i can play this game again with a hells of queue (2 hours of queue) and it runs everything normal again. When i'm done playing, close the application and turn off PS4.
This morning, i run the game and everything goes normally until it got a second power outage again. Then BAM! Here goes the 22.7GB redownload again when i relogin!
So SE please fix this PS4 SB Launcher ASAP!! It's not funny for players who has slow speed to redownload this entire thing again!!
I won't play this game and cancel my sub until this bug fixed!!
Thank you very much for this catastrophic early access!
This is my first post in official forum just to notify this issue. It happened to me as well.
I was testing out RDM and sudden gust of wind cut the power and 22.7GB download was waiting for me when I tried to log-in again. And I got hit with another power cut and yet again, have to re-download everything from scratch again.
I had similar power outages during both ARR and HW, but I only have to re-download everything once during these 3 years.
This seems like a launcher bug to me and a major one at that. I am currently using a UPS battery to prevent power outage for now. But I have heard the dreading news that even doing a hard log-off can get you that 22.7gb redownload. Please look into this and fix it as soon as possible.
Like you I had 2 separate power outages that forced me to download this patch 2 times. And like you I went and grabbed a UPS battery that I had elsewhere and have now plugged my PS4 into itThis seems like a launcher bug to me and a major one at that.

But I just did a hard log-off not too long ago and everything seems fine. I'm talking log off from menu + turn off PS4 + unplug. And no patch download or anything like that happened when I logged in from the launcher. I also put it in rest mode while I still was logged into the game and everything worked from there too.
