Actually, as far as I know you can't degrade patches, once it's installed it's installed. The only other option you have is to remove the entire game, reinstall it, and not get ANY of the patches at all. But as soon as you permit patching it'll download all the patches available, including the one you mentioned, you can't control which specific patches will be installed.

<The only other option you have is to remove the entire game, reinstall it,>

and while doing so does anything happen to my saved games ? ..do they get erased too ? or if I reload the saved data on a downgraded game install, does the game load up ?

I don't know, you should try and see.

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

Also there is another workaround, but it's difficult to make it happen as:

You must find another user that plays Fallout 4 on patch 1.2 (so online should be disabled) to run the game on that 1.2 patch.

Then if you have the same CUSA Product ID with him, you could ask him to start a new game with his 1.2 patched fallout 4 version.

If you load that particular file into your PS4, then it should work! (But remember to play offline, as the game will ask you to update before you play)

I deleted my game on PS4 and then turned off automatic downloads. Your games are not directly saved to the game. They are saved to the system. Deleting your game should not delete your saved game data. But in case you are worried just save your game to a USB drive.

When I updated to 1.3 things got worse instead of better. Haven't deleted this one yet but did delete the previous one before and didn't have any problems with my PS4. Hope Bethesda can fix some of these issues because the bugs are getting super annoying. Good luck

There IS a way. I can reliably get back to 1.2 - but that's because I have a full system backup made when my old PS4's Bluray died so I could transfer my stuff to the new PS4. If I restore that backup I get 1.2 back, but I'd need to get everything else like my saves backed up first. If you don't have a 1.2 backup you're a bit stuck unless you can obtain a backup elsewhere - possibly a legal grey area.


So assuming that's not an option, you can downgrade to v1.0 which is the version BEFORE the day one patch i.e the buggiest:


- Delete the GAME (not your saves) from the PS4

- Disconnect the PS4 from the internet.

- Insert the disc and install the game.


From then on you CAN reconnect to the internet, but MAKE SURE you pay attention to the top left notifications and STOP and Fallout related downloads that may occur each time you load the game, power on the PS4 or wake the system up from sleep mode. You'll be able to load existing files fine - just make sure to save in new slots in case their are any undiscovered corruption issues involved with jumping back and forth between patches.

Thanks to all you Guyz

the path looks much streamlined than I previously thought. (for the records it takes up like 25 min . to finish this operation..but once done I was there again)

Thumbs up to all (y)
