    Won't play: keeps re-installing update 1.09

    Hi, all,

    I came back to Far Cry 5 after doing the FC3 DLC, and now I can't play FC5.

    What is happening now is every time I play, it appears to start, but then quits, and tells me there is an update file that needs to be downloaded - Update 1.09. I wait for this to download, and the same thing happens.

    Note: I am using a disk version of the game.

    Here is what I have tried:
    - deleting the game from my PS4. Obviously, when I tried to play again it re-installed. I then downloaded 1.09. Played, got result as above.
    - deleting the game AND my progress (and the other data file ... can't remember what it is). Re-installed game, re-installed 1.09. Appeared to work; could play, but when I stopped and came back to it later, go the same problem as above (keeps downloading update 1.09)

    Can anyone help?
