What are these spinning circles?
I just bought the game on ps4 to get off of Switch and even though I did the tutorial, it won't let me play. Why all the spinning circles?

I think the game is not fully installed yet. So you are able to play the Tutorial, but you cannot access the online functions at this point.

Could be a loading error. Maybe try reinstalling?

I think you need to do the tutorial before unlocking multiplayer. That’s what I had to do but maybere there is another explanation.

@Aven_Fallen was correct. It said it was downloaded but then after looking at other screens, I saw it had an additional 17 minutes of Time to go. This was like my 3rd time playing on a Playstation so I was lost. Thank you everyone for helping 🙏

Thank you, Peanits! Check out my appreciation thread! I'm in a great mood. I even survived my first match on PS4

Is this the norm for PS4? Today's update is "copying" something and it's taking quite a bit of time. Well past 10 minutes. Just curious as I'm new to Playstation.

Yes, that's normal. PlayStation takes forever to do some updates as it makes a copy of the game. It also means you need to leave a lot of unused space on the drive or else updates can't install.

Also I've found on my Xbox that should I start DBD when there's an update downloading but it says Ready to Start, all of my perks, cosmetics, and charms get reset. And yeah only the tutorial was playable. So I just always let it finish the update first now.
Might be the case for the PlayStations too.

My First Killer game on PS4 and I get this. Is this common?
0 -
I wouldn't say it's super common, but it certainly happens. I haven't tried playing the game yet since installing the hotfix today, and some patches/updates bring more issues than others. I just "Report problem" and move on. If it happens again today, I'd open a bug report on the forums.
If it happens multiple times in a short span, I'd definitely stop playing until the next update, otherwise you risk a long ban penalty.
