Was deploying while in game.  Then got message saying it was deployed and i should restart it. Now all i get is this message: "Unable to connect.  Please ensure you have the latest Warframe update installed" Restarted PS5 and modem nothing (as i read somewhere that his has happened before to other people and that should solve it). PS5 is plugged directly into modem. Still seeing this message....

Also highlighted game icon on PS5 menu and clicked, 'Check for update' and then I get 'The game or app you have installed is the latest version' hmmmm......

Thanks!

it hasn't got live for PS5 and XB X|S

It has! About 40 minutes ago, it seems some people are having issues downloading. Try restarting Warframe and "checking for update"

Those on PS5 who are having issues getting the update, do you happen to be in the EU or Japanese Region by chance?

Ok! So it seems we're having an issue with the update deploying in the EU and Japan regions. Hang tight guys, we're looking into it.

The issue with PS5 has been resolved!! You should now be able to download the update :) Thanks !

I am still having the same issue. I tried all the other usual fixes. I have now deleted Warframe and am re-downloading it. Thankfully, I have a decent download speed and no data caps. SMH. For anyone with the same issue, I will be reporting back as soon as the download is completed. Should be about 20 minutes or so.

Update: It did not work. Guess I'm going to go play some Fall Guys or my backlog of RPGs while DE sorts this out. Thanks for the update, though, and I am sure I will have a lot of fun when I can finally play it. It just sucks because, until today, I have never had to deal with any gamebreaking bugs in my 640+ days of play. :(

Discussing in PSN thread with other Tenno that are having the same issue! https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1246042-psn-orphix-venom-update-2965/page/4/

 

Now that the Update is out it is time to retire this status thread and lock it up so that we can go on ahead and enjoy the Operation - but not without giving you guys a proper closing post. 

As I’ve been reading your replies, it's clear that the wait felt longer this time around. This pertains mostly to the new Status Thread operations, and the growing pains that have come with the change away from "In Cert" news. An assumption I make as you are already very well aware of how Holiday breaks and closures affected work on the update, but there are also other elements at play that I’d like to go over.  

We posted this status thread unusually early in the update’s development so that you knew as soon as we returned from the Holidays that we were getting the build sorted. Meaning that as we were grabbing PC Hotfixes in the first weeks of 2021, the wait to launch was already in full effect. To be frank, it would have been unacceptable to launch the Operation with the issues that were resolved in these Hotfixes (crashes, host migration issues, Affinity loss bugs, etc.). Seeing as we do not have the luxury to Hotfix on the fly as PC, having you wait another full development cycle to get them resolved was not a reasonable option. So here we found ourselves in the third week of January sans Orphix Venom (until today!), but for the sake of having a much more robust version of the Operation at launch. 

We still are shifting and adjusting with this new way of approaching Status Threads. (Paraphrasing an earlier response I made in this thread) With 5 platforms things come at us hard and fast at all angles, which made Cert news difficult to manage and communicate clearly with the varying processing times across platforms. It'll take some time for us to find the perfect rhythm with these things. A midpoint check in at launch day is not a midpoint check in at all, that I will not deny. But work continues at making this work better for all! 
All this to say that it’s evident the Operation was highly anticipated for our console players, and for good reason! It brings Necramech gameplay to the forefront and brings back access to rewards that are highly sought out - I say this as I am eyeing my own Arcane collection longingly and the Lavos shaped hole in my Arsenal that I am currently now in the process of filling. 

Enjoy the Operation and be sure to take advantage of the 3 weeks consoles have with Double Affinity! You deserve it. 

I’ll see you out there stomping around, Tenno!
