Ps4 why does all my download have copying

Haven't been able to figure out how to stop it from trying to download the PS4 version. NavyPharaoh Member. Oct 27, This is what I do.

I click the game icon of the PS5 version. It would then tell me to insert the disc to play. I do and the game starts without trying to copy the other version. Or I go to library and launch the game from installed. BloodshotX Member. Jan 25, 1, NavyPharaoh said:. BloodshotX said:. You mean from the ps store? Or do you just insert the game and quickly eject? Damn it just tried to make me download it again when I turned my console on.

Oct 25, 7, This just happened to me with the Miles PS4 disc. This needs to be fixed ASAP. Has to be a major oversight. So if you press x on the icon it starts the PS5 or the PS4 version? Sorry for all the questions lol. Hoping Sony can make this simpler through an update. SinkFla Member. Oct 26, 7, Pensacola, Fl. Found this thread through google because this is happening to me and getting on my goddamn nerves lol. Kydd BlaZe Member. Apr 17, Oct 27, 1, Kydd BlaZe said:.

Having the same issue but it just occurred to me that you can use the sort option to determine the different versions. Can you try that? Not close to my console at the moment.

It then copies across all of the data to the games folder. It can be explained as follows: Files can become corrupted for a number of reasons during the download process.

I pressed X on the game and it didn't give me the option to do anything. Also on the back of the game it says its 36 GBs, the install was only 6 GBs. I have had an Xbox One and would download the games offline for faster results. Would you recommend the same for the PS4? Odenpeth Topic Creator 4 years ago 4.

Tried offline and it still won't download. And it's a brand new PS4 and I only have one other game on it.

So I have enough space. VeryDarkSoul 4 years ago 5. Gamefaqs allows its users to post anti-white sentiment unabashedly. Odenpeth Topic Creator 4 years ago 6. That's the issue the game won't start installing. I put the disc in and it only starts the 6 gig download.

And it won't download all the way or do anything else. Odenpeth posted Is the game icon on your PS4 without any white bar under it? Odenpeth Topic Creator 4 years ago 8.

Unfortunately I'm not seeing any resolution other than returning the game.
