'We have contacted and informed Sony Interactive Entertainment of the situation, and they are currently investigating and addressing the issue.'
If it is an issue with PS and not XIV, then SE has no place commenting further nor should they.
So my downloads usually take a month for fresh install, losing connection and crappy dsl infrastructure and all that.
Tried to get SE to extend my Subscription because it will literally take a month to download. around under a gig on average per day.
Not that the internet is slow, just that it's not doing what it's supposed to. ike when it downloads 2 gigs and loses connection, it doesnt pick up from where it left off.
Long story to another long story... This is a new ps4 slim, bought the 30 subs for downloading only and had countless issues for the 1st week, so around 15gig downloaded but still stuck on full patch downloading.
Had a chat with the support, no joy. Took the console to my brother since its better speeds and then not close and basically spent the weekend there. Game was done literally over night.
Played most the time I was there, since I want to enter the world of Ishgard, like 3 missions away... packed up to come home as I would normally do once every 2 months spent there.
F$%# me I have to download it again. Patch H2017.06.06.0000.0001a
Find the thread and at least I'm glad I'm not the only one but we have basically been screwed over. Well I certainly feel I have been.
I've had endless troubles with the PC version years ago, that I stopped playing. Then I decided to try it out on Ps4 and OMG, the sH!T doesn't end.
I had a dream that I would just be playing this game in peace, with no worry and full of joy. It seems that even that has become just that, a dream.
I can't do a backup of the game, since I have a smaller HDD than my ps4 I could maybe use but this seems like it's waaaaay to much effort. I'm really considering my life is worth waiting and wasting on such stupid mistakes that cannot be reimbursed.
I take this to be like a big EFF you from SE to us.
-Yeah I'm pissed the F#$% off koz since the last time I played was in january only to get a new console since then and now there's more F$#%ing problems.

Just cuz it's a problem that maybe only Sony can fix does not mean its there problem this was caused from SB, SE is at fault they lack quality testing on ps4 they got no fcking clue what's wrong so they pass the hot potato to Sony hoping they can resolve it and it feels like they are trying sweep this under the rug like it ain't there problen
I totally agree with you putting all the blame on SONY while they acting all innocent is just ridiculous ,a game must adjust to a console not the other way around and I think SONY is just tired of releasing system update to fix this stupid game.Just cuz it's a problem that maybe only Sony can fix does not mean its there problem this was caused from SB, SE is at fault they lack quality testing on ps4 they got no fcking clue what's wrong so they pass the hot potato to Sony hoping they can resolve it and it feels like they are trying sweep this under the rug like it ain't there problen

Well... add me to the list. Just happened for the first time. Power went out for like 2 secs and when I logged back on I'm met with this download. This sucks...
My thoughts exactly. I'll be staying at my uncle's house for the entire summer, that's why I took my PS4 Pro with me. And I've been literally dreaming about the expansion for a really long while, thinking that the only thing I would do during the summer is play this fantastic game, which I stopped playing like a year ago, since I figured it would not be worth the subscription fee anymore. But then they announced the expansion, I bought the complete edition for my PS4 (former PC player here). And here we go. I received the game safe and sound though there's no possible way for me to get started. I spent 2 full days trying to download it with a non-stable 5 mbps connection. It threw me errors each time at around the first 1.5-2 gigs, can't really remember the exact numbers now. Not to mention I had to take my PS4 to a friend who lives nearby on his day-off to be able to download the game. And when I finally manage to get everything working, I see this topic. Now I can't even turn on my PS4 since I know a blackout is likely to happen everyday in this region and also I won't be able to make a visit to my friend's house anymore.So my downloads usually take a month for fresh install, losing connection and crappy dsl infrastructure and all that.

You know what, it has already been 10 long days without me powering on my PS4, hence not being able to play the game, and my subscription is being wasted on this nonsense.
Please don't get me wrong, as my intentions are only to point out that I am only one person among many, suffering from this inevitable fate. I understand and respect the work you are putting into this game. But please stop taking this lightly and give us some detailed information about the steps being taken about the issue.
And lastly, I believe you should know better but, we'll be needing a compensation for our lost days of subscription.
Sorry if this was a little harsh. But it was necessary.

Some of y'all seriously should chill out. Acting like this is the end of the world even going so far saying you're done playing. Highly unlikely you will quit, but keep trashing it.
It's their damn game, i don't give really give a damn who's responsibility it is to fix it. Just do it, because way too many players are having the issue. I hope you're not in this forum just for the sake of being a smartass to others. We're on the same side.
