Might Be Helpful Ps5 News. (oh And Avoid Updating The Ps4 Version!!!!)

UK ps5 user and just been looking around before much needed sleep.

searching train in the store you’ll find this (11gb)



Download as normal and I guess you’ll then have the option to load 4 or 5 version clicking on the dots next to launch game.


This way the simple way to enjoy the latest gen version. And pop back to enjoy those items that aren’t coming over or pick old trophies. (This will be me getting that plat)

All owned DLC is available as free on the store am pleased to report.

Also pleased to report the season ticket has a PS PLUS discount



crazy the Boston DLC is regular price, you’d be mad not to pony up a couple of quid and go all in.

weird no PS4 core version update yet. Currently not keen on installing Boston as not sure it will work as the route won’t be supported in the PS4 version.

(That’s my main gripe at the moment, new DLC but not confident the old release of 1.39 will like it)

 

Tiny update and trying to keep this a poor mans wiki/sticky to help the confused (the info issued was poor I’m not going to lie)

PS4 no rush hour pass or Boston stand-alone as the game update itself hasn’t been made available for us to download yet. Weird and another reason they really should have pushed this out earlier in the week.

not going to purchase rush hour season ticket yet on the 5 release in case they messed up and I won’t get in on the 4 version which I still intend to play. (Am sure it’ll be fine but still, safe than sorry etc)

hopefully 1.40 will be available for PS4 version Thursday at some point… to support the new route… and again 1.41 being the mega core update with the giant list of fixed.

shall return to this tomorrow once the update is live for the PS4 version.

now to download all the levels and trains for the PS5

 

Okay, I’m trying to update on PS4 at the moment and it isn’t happening. UK, standard version of TSW2. Nothing there.

“The installed application is the latest version.”

I’m going to bed. I’m not even going to take the PS5 out of it’s box until everything is on the PS4 and working. One level of ‘can’t cope with this’ at a time for me. I already went through this repeatedly checking for updates once on Tuesday when I thought it was coming then. It can wait until tomorrow.

 

stujoy indeed the PS4 version is stuck and now behind the times. Will update this thread as soon as it goes live and add any info I can along the way.

 

From what others said in tonight's stream, they didn't see the PS4 season ticket or the B-P route for about an hour after midnight their time.

 

I don’t think anyone on the PS4 version will see it or have the option to download as the game simply won’t run it. 1.39 doesn’t support it.

more content than the game knows about, poor sods.

 

So far I’ve noticed…

A wonderful new loading video, with no lag

DTG live log on page. Can’t connect to server before even entering any info is displayed.

the trophies were in 3 sets before... Now it’s Just the game and everything/DLCS bundled in here. (Think I like this, apart from missed IOW opportunity)


as above this list just keeps going down and has all 39 DLC’s inc Boston

the store within the game has the new view with logos etc. Prices and content doesn’t fully load. But clicking buy takes you to the store store (yes types twice) abs it will display either free if you owned or the price.

OMG the loading times, the screenshots/slideshow barely showed one image before jumping right in. SSD in full effect.

 

Ive managed to find them and download all my dlc's on ps5, just search the store fore it, alls well apart from gwr, keeps giving me an error code (CE-107880-4) everytime i try to download it? Not sure what the issue is, says i purchased it, just wont download ill try it again tomorrow once everthings processed i suppose

 

Same here, only DLC that won't download is GWE. ...

 

Yes, GWE seems to be causing problems. Let's hope DTG staff pick up on this in the morning.

 

unseendreamer yep myself and a few others are getting this. Someone may log a ticket but imagine DTG staff will be all other the forums picking this up.

 

The same here and I can't login at dtg account...

 

1.42 is finally live after taking its sweet time, this is for the PS4 version.

imagine once installed you’ll be getting the option of downloading / purchasing the season ticket for the PS4 release

(Those purchasing the PS5 version and downloading the route for the 4 version stopped the game to launch)

just thinking if I had waited till the morning there would have been so much less fuss

I’ve lame internet so will purchase season pass in the morning once this update as gone through.

 

My PS4 version updated and when I started it up a got a message saying most of the DLCs were not up to the core version of the game. I'm uninstalling and reinstalling everything to see if it fixes it. Any advice would be great. Thanks.

 

Seems like it's a common issue.
My PS4 version does the same and then crashes back to the XMB.

 

please let us know how the uninstall reinstall goes

did you both have the new DLC installed before the core 1.42 was downloaded??

 

Nope, I didn't as I haven't purchased the season ticket yet.
The PS5 version seems to be running ok though.

 

I went into the library clicked TSW2 went to purchased and hit the download arrow and re download the routes and add-on back to the game.

 

Not sure why am awake, work in a few hours.
Couldn’t work out why this was ticking over the size. Restarted and it changed to a 17gb update and finished.


guess this is the same as others. I haven’t downloaded the new DLC. (I do have a giant list of ps5 add ons in the queue?)


No route support added, or not mentioned here. In the past it’ll say what’s supported.

 

Noticed the game size since the update has gone from 90plus to 88.02gb odd it would drop.

the new core doesn’t want to play ball with any dlc installed. Shall leave the PS5 version to finish its DLC overnight and give it some more trial and error in the morning.

 

Thanks JD, could you also look at getting someone to switch the Dovetail Live server back on?

 

Thanks for the quick response JD.

 

I’m going to guess that as it’s a new, separate version of the game and the fact it came out at midnight. It just needs someone on the DTL team to flick the ON switch when they sign into work

 

Right, downloaded the update for PS5...all working fine, slowly adding the DLCs, that also seems to be going fine.

Purchased the Season Ticket thing (still don't understand it), but noticed the Boston DLC was suddenly free, downloaded it...can't find it on the menu!

As for the PS4 version, it gives me the option to play it on my PS5, but because theirs no core update for that it's crashing all the time.

Today is going to be a long day!

 

The core update has been done for PS4, it's just that someone from Sony needs to turn the new versions of the DLCs on manually (according to JD in other posts).

 

When will the update for Steam be released?

 

will this be fixed for ps4 users

 

I've managed to get the PS4 version running but I had to delete the game and reinstall it without any DLCs.
Hopefully the issue with DLCs will get sorted today.

 

thnaks for posting this so did you just delete the game and re install from library

 

so if i do this will the boston route work and i will just have to wait for fix so i can get all of my old routes back as i have bought all the route apart form cane creek

 

do you delete just the application or do you delete all from your storage saves as well

 

I think I will remove the PS4 version before it starts updating and just go straight for the PS5 version. I don't need the PS4 version to stay on there really

 

im now re downloading the whole game

 

i deleted tsw2 and then re download

 

I’m downloading the PS5 version now.

I’ve bought the season pass which makes the Boston Sprinter route on PSN free. I’ll download that once the main game is installed. Everything running smoothly so far.

 

Hmm. When downloading Boston Sprinter, both the PS4 and PS5 versions started downloading - even though I only have the PS5 version of TSW 2 on my PS5. I have cancelled the PS4 one.

 

Yeah, an annoying feature of the way PSN / PS5 works. At least it's quick n easy to cancel the PS4 download.

 

OMG what an evening or morning that was

and now the wait for someone to flick the switch so the update see’s the light

cheers DTG JD will look out for the news later and one of us will confirm we no longer get the error

 

My first PS4 update (on the PS4) is currently downloading, and there will be one (or more) to follow for the DLC according to all accounts. After that’s all done, I’ll move on to unboxing the PS5, set that up, and acquire the shiny PS5 version and all the DLC. After that, I shall purchase the season pass and download Boston on both. That should be the easiest way to ensure this complex manoeuvre goes smoothly I reckon. One thing at a time, no rush, no stress.

In the meantime, if I fancy driving a train, I shall fire up TSW2020 !!!

 

i had last night bought the ps4 version of the season ticket then downloaded Boston sprinter then game did not work because the core update had not been relaise this morning i didnt stop core update in time so the game just crashes

 

as long as you are all up to date both core update (your version should be 1.42) and all DLC installed you’ll be fine JD will post here and elsewhere on other threads and announcements too when it should load without error.

 

They’ve cocked this up

it seems they’ve made a major LOVE up funny the ps5 and Xbox series don’t seem to b having a problem

 

i am in middle of Arosaline trophy completion, i just want to 100% it on my ps4 before i move onto the ps5 version.
Then ill start the next dlc one on the ps5, is that possible or will these updates balls up my current save game. Thanks

 

once you install the PS5 update and all owned DLC you’ll have a lovely new set of trophies to unlock again progress will be set to zero as the 4 and 5 saves are separate with no transfer option. Think of it as a clean slate

 

delteing the came and re downlaoding everything on ps4 after update dose not work
