Yeah, you have to re-download the map packs to re-unlock the DLC weapons you've had before they got locked because of bug. I know, sounds odd, but that's how it goes.
By the way Kush, re-installing means that you install something once again even through you already had it. It usually is done when object of re-installation doesn't work as intended (sorry if this was unnecessary, I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed at 3 AM). in case of PS3 the steps for re-downloading are:
- Sign in
- Go to account management
- then to transaction history
- then to download list
- from there you can re-download all the DLC you already purchased.
Things get tricky with PS4. Many people have issues with re-installing DLC on it. So far this method had the highest success rate:
- Delete the game you want to install DLC for from your HDD along with everything else including saves etc (backup to a usb or the cloud)
- Go to here: https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/#!/en-ca/download/queue
- Log in
- Under the download queue find your DLC you want to install, select it and make sure your PS4 is on, it will start the download
- The download will finish and the installation will fail (This is okay) LEAVE THIS FAILED INSTALL ON YOUR DOWNLOAD LIST!
- Re-install the game, go back to the install list in notifications and select the failed install, it will successfully install
- Boot game and update it.
