Bleed over on ps4 install; specifically the "favorites" feature is unsafe

Game mode: [Online | Singleplayer]
Problem: [Crash | Bug]
Region: [US West]

I had the game installed on a different account. Later, I set up a new account for psn. I installed it from the library. When I started the game on the new account, it had all the favorites and misc setting (like audio) copied from the first install.

Steps on how to reproduce issue:

  1. This is an obvious TLS (programming) issue. The two threads shared information that have no reason to share. (In modern terms) It’s unsafe.
  2. The real issue is how deep does this kind of TLS bug happen? Reproduction may be fatal.

No idea how you got Setting to save over. (assume its Ps4 issue, not the game) Maybe how you exited one PSN, and flipped to other and it was still in ps4 memory.

I have 3 PSN’s I use for CE, Never had any of them “copy” Setting over. Each always started on default. (both PAL(disc) and English Digital.

I just redid install (making a new day 1 disc save) never encountered this. (I restart alot…)
