Hardline PS4 (in game install too slow)
Dear all, My installation is going way too slow, I've downloaded the game and the update (pre-ordered it) on ps4, but now it's downloading for cca 5hrs already, yet its at 50%. (Full game 50%) ...
Forum Discussion
Thanks for the answer, but one more question, I've downloaded the 40GB part plus the update, now I'm in the game (I could play the prologue), everything else is at 50% (when I posted this topic). How do I cancel the download, there isn't an option and it isn't visible in the playstation downloads. Is the game actually DOWNLOADING something in addition to 40GB game download via the game or what?
Resetting the console via the safemode should cancel and resume the installation process, have you tried it yet?
I've entered safe mode and forced the 2.04 download of system software (which Sony never prompted me for in the Playstation main menu). I'll try this first before the database rebuild.
I've installed the sys update plus rebuilt the database (have no other games installed so it went fast), it is still awfully slow.
"The game is currently installing. Check out Battlelog while you wait or start playing the singleplayer episodes when they're ready!"
It is at 51% (remember it was 50 an hour ago when I posted this).
PLEASE HELP, what's the problem?So it was making at least some kind of a progress (from 50-51%) but it takes still a really long to finish. I don't wan't to recommend to delete all the game data, this could fix the issue but you would have to run through the whole download and possibly still slow installation over again.
Have you already tried to create another PSN profile in order to try to install the game with a different profile?Cheers

Here is my experience with PS4 from last night.
Midnight I launched it. Started installing... very slowly. 3 hours pass and it's at 50%. I go to sleep. Wake up 7.5 hours after originally starting the install. It was finished. I estimated it took about 5 hours because how how I have the sleep settings on PS4.
I launched the game before work and it appeared fully installed.
I thought about it but did not check the network traffic for the PS4. I assumed it was downloading stuff since it took so long.
25mbit down connection with a stock slow PS4 harddrive. Preloaded from Sunday.
