Game disk is broken! Can i get a disk from another region and play?
My friend broke his bf4 disk. He's from Canada and he came to live here in lebanon.
The disk he's got is from Canada and he's got the dlcs and all the updates so he doesn't want to go through with downloading them again.
Can he just buy a disk from Lebanon (Europe region) and run the game with the disk or does he have to reinstall the game to be able to run it?
Thanks for any speedy answers!

It doesn't work we tried it with a friend's disk. The console installs the game like its a new game so now he has 2 bf4s installed which is weird I guess. Resolved

Can I play a game if I lost the disc?
There is no way for you to play a physical copy of Destiny without the disk. You only are able to play a game without a CD if you bought a digital copy of the game.Can you play game saved data with different disc?
Long answer This means that as long as your HDD doesn't break, your save game will remain safe, even if you have to change to a new disk (as long as it's for the same game) or decide to buy the digital version instead.Can you play the same game with different disc on PS4?
Unfortunately you cannot. Installation of PS4 games are just like PC games requiring the disc. Installation decompress all the needed files that the game needs to run on PS4 smoothly. You will still need to put the disc in every time you want to play that particular game.Can PS4 play region 2 games?
Generally, your PS4 gaming console is not region-locked. In addition to the console, PS4 game discs and digital content are not regions locked, either. However, Sony recommends that you get discs and consoles from the same region. This helps to ensure the best performance.More answers regarding game disk is broken!

Answer 2
You have to uninstall and install back again. It's annoying.
I just got ghosts region 2 and I already had it updated and installed region 1. They wanted me to reupdate with the install.
