PS3 was NEVER stable, and now everyone is trying to download games, patches, etc. since the rumors and then confirmation of store closures. Don't get me wrong, I'm pretty sure someday you won't be able to download a patch, that's the isue with digital formats. But afaik, sony confirmed you'll still able to play your games, and that includes patching them up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It affects a game if you can't download a patch that fixes game breaking glitches. It affects a game if you can't download a patch to access the online or muliplayer portion. This issue is also completely random. It's not just affecting one region. It's not just affecting one format (digital or disc). It's not just affecting games from one publisher. It's not even just affecting PS3 games, as at least one PS4 game is having this issue. The more eyes and info on this subject that can be gathered, the greater chance it'll be fixed by Sony.

You need to give people more than 5 minutes to try it themselves so that more people can confirm it. One random dude from Spain claiming it works now does not mean the problem has magically disappeared for everyone. Thank you for testing it, i will try my copy of Castlevania tonight to see for myself. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AihaLoveleaf Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Found some time to do some testing and I'm also not getting the patch for my Castlevania: Lords of Shadow Vanilla (NA) disc. Bought both DLC packages and installed them. PS3 doesn't show me the version installed no matter where I look. Progressed past the tutorial to see the World Map like in @X_Wizi_X's post and counted only 12 dots. Guess that means I'm out of luck here. Hopefully it fixes itself somehow but if not then I might be looking at PSNow for the Platinum if they have the DLC on there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point is, that seems more a result of people in panic and servers being blocked that an actual issue with sony (or whoever) removing patches from the store. I invite everyone to test their games from time to time to check if there's a conectivity issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
