U.S. Pacific Campaign (PS4) Can't deploy aircraft

Post by mitchswar42 »

My first post...I'm on the Coral Sea battle, and after the briefing and the objectives menu, the game skips the deployment phase and on to the first turn and even though I deployed an aircraft carrier, the game won't let me deploy any aircraft. As title suggests, I'm on PS4. Thanks.

Unfortunately, I cannot speak to the PS4 version of the game, although I can't see why it would vary in the basic performance of gameplay mechanisms. As you can see here, in screenprints from my PC version, all is functioning as expected. Hopefully a tech person will see this thread and have further commentary.

Well, it just got worse. I just started the first North Africa battle on Allies Defiant, and once again the deployment phase got skipped, but this time, I can't deploy any units at all! What is going on? Can a tech moderator help me here? This mission is utterly unplayable.

Two standard non-tech pieces of advice: Delete the Settings folder (the game will recreate it with defaults) and uninstall/reinstall the game including all DLC, a complete fresh start. Hopefully you kept your DLC keys.

I am pretty certain that settings files and DLC keys are for PC version, but I did uninstall and reinstall, and it worked! I can deploy units again. Thank you!
