I think its highly likely they have been employed to work on KSP2 now mate. It's a shame but let's be honest the game was never meant for consoles in the first place. At least with KSP 2 they are starting with the intent.

But what I find odd is that not everyone gets the issues. Having a brand new install on a ps5 should fix any questions of performance of the console. That therefore means that the code itself is unstable, and it's nothing to do with hardware. @Demordrah Im the same, Been all around the Kerbol system, I've tried the same as you...deleting down everything, But it makes no odds. I've got a feeling it is more likely to be related to leveling up the tracking centre or something in the tech tree, mind you I'm on level 3 on a science career on ps5 and still crashed 3 times, only saving grace is it's quicker to load. . My hunch is when it starts to track astroids, as that was the last update I suspect it's a bug somewhere, but noones interested in fixing this now. I actually haven't had a full on save file failure for ages, but the blue screen errors are just as mentally draining as they are so random in nature.

Ah thought you might, apologies. Ive contacted PD and unsurprisingly they have asked me to log on the bug tracker which is a joke as I've logged issues there for over a year and not had a single response.

Completely new ps5, same career, hung in VAB after about 1 hour. Unbelievable. I'm going to try and complain to Sony. Really disappointed. It's got nothing to do with the console. I dunno why some of you get no problems, only thing left to think of is that it is the save file or something in my game install package... ????

Right so. Brand new ps5, old career and hung in VAB... Stupid game.

On console? Yeh I remember when I first started it was really hard to get my head round but with practice the VAB building is pretty slick with EE. The problem for me is the random hangs and crashes from VAB that plague my console. Will find out how it ays on ps5 this week now ive got one

Just turn it off in settings... That's what I did. Flight and building is so much more fun on console than PC... I've played both. PC is useful for all the random part clicks, but the keyboard controls are such a pain. If you had a controller on the PC that would be ace I reckon. Any chance we could get answers to our questions then? We have been asking for almost a year.

...hahahab... Just got a ps5 for my 40th birthday. I'm really interested to take a look and see if same issue, I assume I can transfer my games to the ps5... Haven't read up on it much. I also completely dismantled and cleaned my ps4 inside, and I've yet to test KSP again. If it goes wrong again, I bought a new SSD internal drive before my bday to replace the entire thing. Whilst I now have the ps5, I'm still interested and so I will probably still do the SSD swap and test. I just want to know 'why' it does it for me and a few others but not for all.

Problems all existed from purchase of the game and follow on from originally following the support teams advice to do a compete reset of ps4 to factory settings and uninstall/reinstall of game. I've said for a while that I think it's related to being at about level 4 tech tree aswell as never seems to be an issue in early saves, if I create a brand new career i will not get issues until later in that career. This is why I believe the issue is some how resource/memory related and an external t's always 50:50 whether the error occurs from the VAB after hanging for ages, or trying to load back to KSC or the tracking station. Tried tonight and it hung and crashed in VAB. Very frustrating as pretty much always forget to save progress I got an external SSD for Xmas, as I suspected it was the autosave feature causing the issues. I've uninstalled and reinstalled ps4 again and reloaded my save and still gets issues. I am getting to the point I might just delete the game altogether, maybe one last reset and then call it a day when it goes wrong. Of Course the annoying thing is that you can't save and transfer craft files between saves on console edition. If that was possible I wouldnt care too much about restarting each time.

I have it on steam, but I prefer it on console. I think I must be like the only one. and yes, I REALLY want to play the game I paid money for. I've never known a game on ps4 be so temperamental and it really bugs me. Fyi- I've worked in software for over 25 years and so yeh, I would like to understand what the connection is. It won't be random. It will be something that we all have in common Vs those that play without issue. If it were 100% software related then all players would be affected.... It kinda gets my interest actually. Determined to get to the reason.

Yeh I play cities skylines with the sound on like 50 just to cover up the sound of a light aircraft coming from my ps4... Thing is... That game has never once crashed to blue screen. The only things that have are KSP, and occasionally iPlayer, which has led me to theorise the possibility that this is a TV VS Graphics card glitch, which explains it's apparent random nature. What TV is your ps4 connected to?

Bl##dy hell... I shelled out for it on steam in a sale back when I first reported the issues but for a variety of reasons I still want to play the ps4 version. 1. It should work as intended!!! 2. I actually prefer using the console controls for in game flight ( not so much in VAB... ) 3. My PC is a laptop that is put away and I CBA to go and get it every time I want to build a rocket. Ps4 is constantly out in the lounge. 4. Having access to the mun launch pad 5. Collecting my ps trophies... 6. Because I want to play on my ps4, and I bought it for my ps4 for a reason Btw .. Direct link here... https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/kerbal-space-program Yup, and quick save loading is hit or miss as to whether you will blue screen crash your game. But why have we had diddly squat from the 'team!'? They were on here telling us we would "definitely" have an update. Disagree. Once you get used to it console is far superior when flying rockets in my experience. I guess in part it's what you are used to. Cus I learnt the game on controller it feels really pants trying to fly craft on the PC version. The best thing they could do would be shut it down and give users a discount off KSP2 as a "sorry we lied to you about the update"

That appears to be the SLIM version. I'm on the original PS4, so maybe those that the game works for are on PS4 pro???? But oddly looking at the poll, @Rutabaga22 & @Dragorans appear to be on the same ps4 slim as you... And they report they get no errors!!? #update# re. External SSD So I got a pretty fast SSD for Xmas and set it up as my external drive and then uninstalled and reinstalled the game. Loaded the save game and played for about 45 mins before it hung in the VAB... And then died. So I have no idea. Maybe I should just resign to the fact it doesn't work and leave poor Jeb on Eve for ever more. I can't justify buying another console for one game, and shelling out the money for the entire game again and if I do update to a new ps4 then by our poll it's not guaranteed to work either. Fyi - I also tried setting the video output in the settings to be 1080p and not auto as I read an old post where this was said to have a impact as did reducing the 'conics' that can be shown but that wouldn't explain a VAB crash. @Aerodynamic Kerbal I have a Sony Bravia, do you also by chance have a Sony TV? Could it be the TV causing the randomised feel I wonder...?

I've literally lost the love again, I've tried to build an eve return rocket and its just awful. I've just tried to add a couple of SRBs and as I hovered them over the rocket screen just hung and eventually will die to a blue screen error cxxxxxxxx Im done. I can't be bothered anymore. I think I will delete this save and start again if I really feel the need. Sodding game. I've got 767gb of spare hard disk space Yeh, error just popped up now. Reads "an error has occured in the following application: (CE-34878-0) Kerbal Space Program Enhanced Edition I'm really far in this game, furtherest Ive ever got and I just now can't continue to try playing, I have managed 30mins of gameplay tonight. It's really frustrating that I'm getting this and 4 of you seem to be able to play with no issue. It's got to be something with this console.

Can you tell what version of ps4 you have? Have a look at the model number. And do you not get any errors or crashing at all? Lucky! Also, some view of how deep into the game you are. I.e been to other bodies or just Kerbin?

Games not been designed for keyboard use really so doesn't surprise me. I think it's pretty much just been done to help with naming things quickly. I just stick to console controller tbh

[shouts into the night] HELLLLLLOOOOO...ANYBODY THERE??? @StarSlay3r... Anyone???

Thanks for moving. Seems like noone plays it on console anymore, maybe that justifies the reason there's no sign of an update

Yeh... Just got to 46k from surface of eve... Blasting through... Sound of plasma levels getting insane... And then... Screen hangs... Sound continues... Welcome to another blue screen of death I've learnt that if you crash during this hanging, it's likely you can reload without the corruption.

PS enhanced edition player experience poll https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/210857-ps-enhanced-edition-player-experience-poll/

Hi all, I want to gather some stats on PS enhanced edition user experience, it seems we have differing experiences playing the game and I'm trying to piece together the link. Some claim to play without issue and whilst many, if not, the majority get constant crashing and hanging during play. Please fill out if you play on enhanced edition on PS 4 or 5 for that matter. Cheers Ande

Hi, so can you navigate the menu and still build a new one? What if you load SPH and build in there? Same? Only funny I could think is the names all having 11 in them... Maybe it's got itself a bit confused. It will be using a unique key in the database and likely the name forms part of it. What if you start a new career, assuming this would work fine?

No idea, did you fix it? I guess you could try re-trimming it. But I turned this off ages ago on console as kept on triggering by mistake

Mines CUH-1216b @uncle grim can you send the model numbers of yours. Based on the info from Rutabaga I'd steer towards anything pre CUH-20xxx being the common similarity. Ideally need more ps4 players to tell us. Is it possible to do surveys through this forum?

Any news for us ps4 players about our promised update? Even if just to say it's delayed would be nice to know it's still being pushed.
