I had Cold War freeze up on me a couple times when restarting missions, and Kotaku’s Editor-in-Chief mentioned Miles Morales freezing the couple times he tried to jump into different sections of the game using the PS5’s activity cards. More frustrating are the occasional freezes and crashes while in the middle of playing. Despite an official workaround for this from Activision, I’ve still had Black Ops Cold War occasionally default to the PS4 version. It’s an easy problem to correct by manually switching to the next-gen version, but if you’re not paying attention you can end up playing the wrong version. Then there’s the issue of the PS5 sometimes defaulting to installing and running the PS4 versions of games, even when using a PS5 disc. As a result, some pusers have suggested simply turning off Rest mode entirely in the settings menu and closing out of any game before shutting the system down. It’s unclear why this is happening, and what, if any, problems it might create for the console longterm. Rather than turn back on, the PS5 will beep and go through an extended boot up sequence, saying the system is “repairing console storage” as if you had pulled the power plug out while it was running. One of them is the system crashing when in suspend mode. Meanwhile, there are other ongoing issues that still don’t seem to have fixes. Sony didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. This resolves the issue without deleting anything, though it still requires some leg work and remains far from ideal for a brand new next-gen console. Now, Sony is suggesting players start up their PS5s in safe mode (turn on the console by holding down the power button for several seconds) and select the option to rebuild the database instead. Previously, the solution was to do a full factory reset on the console, but that was extremely tedious and meant deleting a bunch of data, especially if you’d already transferred everything from your PS4. The progress bar sits at 0% downloaded indefinitely, no matter how many times players try to start the process over again. Some players have found that when they select a game to download onto the PS5, it looks like the PS5’s about to begin the download, and then… nothing. Today, Sony offered a workaround for one of the most widely discussed issue, known as the download queue bug.
