One additional item is to rebuild the PS3 database. Search google for that phrase and you will find a quick explanation.
Also if you get corrupted file you should just restart your PS3 and try again before deleting and downloading again as CCP indicates that it might only be a temporary network connection issue.
The comment on internet speed is very likely your issue. Wireless is subject to massive interference and if someone is using any number of older routers, microwave ovens and devices that were made before the current wireless specs were in place. |

We are very close to May 6th and having an answer Before then would be very helpful as we con ... oops, convince our friends to joining our marvelous adventure down in the DUST.
Unfortunately I don't really have an answer if the network connection is the issue. That just makes me nervous regarding lag and various UI interactions with game controllers and such.
Good Luck. |

In other words, the real fix has to come from CCP, and is unlikely to arrive before they wipe our passively gained and unspent skill points, for the May 6th update. The skill points we've acquired but not spent may be lost, if we can't find a way to connect and spend them before May 6.
Even if you can't lug your PS3 to a friend's house, you [not you kal, anyone else reading this, whose having the same problem] might want to log on and spend your currently unspent skill points as a guest on someone else's working PS3, before May 6. Let's correct a misperception here.
All the data for your character is on the CCP server. Nothing is kept on the client. All SP, active, passive, spent and unspent are on CCP servers. You cannot lose it if you run your PS3 over with a truck. You can login to your PS3 account via a different PS3 (friend or not) and you can play DUST with all your data as complete as it can ever be.
Also, if you Ever see the 12% you have already made it past account verification. There are two steps, logging into PSN and accessing the CCP servers. If you don't get past Sony you get prompted to try again. If you don't get into CCP server you will not get anything downloaded. There is some auto account solution where you have a PSN account, you have DUST downloaded and that means the CCP connection is not going to need a second verification. Even their customer support is based on your PSN account, BTW.
What? Don't you think I have any local friends? I do. They are all on Steam though.  |

The risk of skill point loss is specifically due to the possibility that when the May 6th patch and skill point refund comes around, that only skill points we've spent will be refunded, and that everyone will lose any unspent skill points. Those of us experiencing this synch error, might lose the skill points we haven't spent because we weren't able to get into the game and spend them. That is what I have been trying to explain to you. SP is SP spent or not. If it is not spent it is still yours to use as you see fit. It is normally tracked as Available.
There is nothing I have read that states SP must be spent or you lose it. If you do spend it you will get it refunded as the Skill Tree is undergoing dramatic changes. However if one does not spend some it does not have to be refunded as it is still Available.
When the reset happens you should see Lifetime SP and Available SP being equal. This ties to all SP (and everything else) is on the CCP server. So if you go on vacation from May 5th until May 15th your Passive SP will still be ticking away and all of your SP you gained will await your return. Even if you log in from a different PS3 entirely.
What did you read from CCP that makes you think otherwise? |
