Error downloading config file
Having this same error pop up last night into today. Was fine the night before, now I can’t get into Factions or play the campaign while connected to the internet. Other online games work and I have never received this “error downloading config file” before. Have uninstalled and reinstalled game three, deleted saved files, cleared off space and am rebuilt database. Nothing has worked. My PS4 info is as follows:
PS4 model: PS4-576
Disk or digital: Disk
Time since install: 3.5 years
System Free Space: 200GB
Download Speed: 51.5mbps
Upload Speed: 10.2mbps
Location: Canada
Thanks.

Thank you for your messages.

If you are continuing to experience this error, please confirm what region you are in.

Reboot the ps4 and/or your router/modem. If that doesn't help try using Google's DNS-servers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 respectively) or 1.1.1.1.
(also, it's Factions, not Fractions... ;) )

The "Story" shouldn't require an internet connection to play....so I don't know what's going on there....
Anyway, there already is a recent thread about this Factions/mp error: https://feedback.naughtydog.com/forums/260903-the-last-of-us-remastered/suggestions/38867626-
Give it votes if you want ND to take notice on this site.....
In the meantime reboot the ps4 and/or your router/modem. If that doesn't help try using Google's DNS-servers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 respectively).

Had the same problem as listed above, waited a couple of minutes(about 5) and tried it again and it worked. It looks like waiting and trying repeatedly is the only thing to do when this happens:/
