    Nope. All of my DLC's aren't visible on the Main Menu. Only Bakerloo, SKA, SPG, Boston Sprinter, ECW, and HRR.

    Same here. But I can play without the errors. Just have to wait on Sony to push the button

    All of I had to redownload via the in-game store. I have nearly all DLC's but most of the newer TSW2 exclusive DLC's still show a price instead of $0.00, so I guess DTG is still working on the fix for them.

    I'm hopeful that i can at least view the timetable for the DLC's without the game crashing

    i wonder if the advice nat sent out last nite at 7.55pm was just a ploy so as matt and jd would get peace to stream,while we were all wasting our time downloading,uninstalling,reinstalling for no end result.

    I am a little inclined to agree, I have started watching that and I know JD was just doing his bit to try and reassure people but as soon as he started to bring up the Playstation issues, Matt let out either a scoff or a held back snigger which I thought, all that was going to do was annoy people even more because I don't think it's funny, pretty sure everyone else doesn't think it's funny, pretty sure no one thinks it's funny

    There is absolutely nothing funny about this situation and it's been 24 hours now and still, still, I would say 95% of Playstation users can't use their game

    I'm a playstation 5 player in the US and i think i was the lucky one. I was able to download and play the game just fine with no issues.

    I’m on a UK account, I also seem to have been fortunate. For a short while dlc disappeared from the online store but after doing the PS4 core update first, all other dlc reappeared and the ps5 option was there too.
    In fact installing the Boston route installed a ps5 copy then a PS4 copy automatically.

    As an aside the ps5 version now allows uninstalling individual dlc which wasn’t an option before.

    hoping the psn store can work it’s way out for everyone still waiting.

    I've noticed that when things go wrong Matt tends to smirk and snigger as it usually doesn't affect him, Sam though always understands how badly this hurts the company and will always be brutally honest.

    Different people react and deal with problems in different ways. He’s probably heard nothing but the PlayStation problems for the whole day and thus gets some wry amusement from it when it comes up for the 1000th time.

    I am the same and get some grim amusement from the worst situations even when I’m in big trouble- some people break down, some people don’t do anything and some people try to glean some positivity so they are in a good frame of mind to deal with the problem.


    I do hope the update isn’t too long now, nothing works on my PS4 at all.

    Very well put. It is apparent at the moment that DTG are getting quite a lot of hate because of this mess up.

    Ok, today I have put my brain into gear after a good nights sleep. I have deleted the PS4 version and low and behold I have the PS5 game there and ready to use. I am now in the process of downloading my DLC’s which I am limiting to the Most recent add-ons. I may add some of the older ones later.

    Hi JD,
    I’ve tried many times to follow the steps you guys suggested but at the end I’ve just uninstalled the whole thing, re downloaded the base pack with Boston sprinter only cause it won’t work otherwise.
    I’ve also found out a dispatcher problem. Coming out of the stoughton branch, if you get to canton jct only a few seconds late you have to wait 15 mins for the providence arrival to Boston in order to proceed.

    Okay, I can't play my older routes just yet. That's fine, I can be patient. What I'd like to know is why several of my previously purchased add-ons — LGV, IoW, and OSD to name a few — do not have the option of downloading as a free add-on? It appears as though I've never purchased them, via both the TSW2 menu and the PS Store. I'd be quite concerned if I were DTG here, not every PlayStation gamer is glued to this forum and totally informed of what's going on.

    EDIT: I just checked the PS web store and my missing DLC is available there. At least that's something.

    Is there a list of the file sizes for the remastered addons? Just so I know what I need to redownload and what I don't. I already redownloaded everything after the PS5 version came out but that may have been too early

    You can download them through your library as another option. Won't necessarily mean you will be able to play them though as it doesn't matter where I download my DLC's from they do not show up in the game to play. I have tried from the Playstation store, the TSW2 in game store and from my library. But worth a try as it may work for you.

    DTG, how many more annual releases it going to take before you can release an update that doesn’t break the game on multiple platforms? Absolute joke of a company.

    What a mess. I'm (once more) really disappointed. I love this game but for the next months I'm gonna spend my money elsewhere.
    I hope you get the PS4 version working again soon!

    I'm on PS4 and it's a mess. I though DTG fixed their QA/QC issues after the last issues on the previous German route released earlier this year. Did DTG actually test all of this out on a PS4 before release? Why didn't they get all these errors during testing? I paid for the Season Pass version and downloaded the Boston-Providence Route and I can't even play the route as it has errors and crashes. How is DTG going to make this up to all us PS4 players that bought the Season Pass on Launch day yesterday and spent $36 and can't even play the game now? PS says I downloaded and installed a few of the classic DLCs, but they don't show up in the game. Also recent DLC route releases like Isle of Wight, Arosa, Clinchfield RR, Cane Creek don't show up and all say I have to pay $29.99 for them when I already own them. I'm extremely disappointed in the launch of this core update and Rush Hour release. I would like to know why DTG didn't delay the launch date like in previous years due to all these issues with PS4 version?? Still waiting on the fixes for PS4 that you said yesterday on social media. Also please stop replying on social media with the generic link for PS4 problems as it hasn't fixed anything at all. In the past I've been accepting of launch bugs, but the fact that I can't play the game at all anymore very disappointing and not acceptable for a game being released!

    I did the procedures contained in the most recent article and was not successful. The problem persists, even having reinstalled the entire game, only the base routes and the Boston Line work.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Fiz os procedimentos constantes no mais recente artigo e não obtive sucesso. O problema persiste, mesmo tendo reinstalado o jogo inteiro, apenas funciona as rotas base e a Linha de Boston.

    Yes, I'm on PS5 and have managed to download both the PS5 version and all my DLC are a PS5 version. I've able to claim them all for free and download them successfully.

    The only issue I had was I've just purchased some new locos from the preserved collection for TSW 2020 as they just came on offer. At first it was trying to charge me again on PS5 for just these DLC's. I had to claim them for PS4 (which I've still got installed) then they showed up as free and I could install them for PS5. It aas all a bit confusing to be honest.

    Sony really don't make this easy!

    Usually the platinum trophy can be obtained with just the base routes (SPG, BKL and HRR). I would assume it will be the same on PS5 but haven't checked the trophy list yet.

    Have I overlooked something or is there nothing new on the subject and I now have to continue to play the PS4 version because the player account cannot be transferred? :(

    As yet, profiles, trophies, game saves, scenario designer saves and livery designer saves cannot carry across from the PS4 version to the PS5 version.
    All that has been said is they understand the frustration and are talking to Sony and other developers to try and find a solution for this.
