Lol, you help more people in this topic than this Ubisoft support man.
I run CCleaner. In a few hours the game will be installed and I post what happens.
These are the steps I took. Hopefully it works for others!
-Uninstall Far Cry 3 from steam. Remove any remaining folders in C:\Program Files (x86).
-Uninstall Uplay. Remove any remaining folders in C:\Program Files (x86).
-Go to regedit, go to the HKEY_LOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node and delete the ubisoft entry.
-Reinstall Far Cry 3 through steam.
-Reinstall Ubisoft Game Launcher from here: http://static3.cdn.ubi.com/orbit/lau...rInstaller.exe
-If the game crashes, quit uplay, go back to steam and right click on Far Cry 3, click on set launch options and type in "-dxlevel90" (without quotations) and it should work.
I was pulling my hair out trying to get it to work. This was my last resort, and I'm glad it worked!
Support answer:
Hello ,
The developers have passed on this information about fixing performance issues:
AMD users:
• *MUST ABSOLUTELY* use at least the 12.11 BETA8 drivers (12.11 BETA11 drivers are also ok). Anything lower will result in erratic framerate and stuttering.
• Crossfire should be disabled. It has a big negative impact on performance at the moment. We are working with AMD to provide a Xfire profile asap.
Performance tips:
AC3 is a very CPU intensive game to begin with and the “Environment quality” option only makes it more demanding.
• On the “Very High” setting, the rendered surface area is twice as big as on console and the objects are 4 times more detailed.
• Users whose systems don’t have cutting-edge CPUs or that want higher framerates should consider bringing this setting down a notch.
On the GPU side:
• “AA quality” will most affect performance. Using the “Very High” or “TXAA” settings will enabled 4x MSAA, which will require beefy GPUs, especially as resolutions go up.
• “Shadow quality” will also affect performance when on “Very High”, as the shadow filtering is quite sophisticated at that setting.

Now, sorry for my ignorance, but I only have one GPU, but I need to disable this **** crossfire? I realy dont understand how this work...
So, even if doing all that did fix the issues, which I highly doubt since I have tried all that crap, thier answer is basically "nothing wrong on our end, dumb down your computer".
Of course I am speaking from the point that I can run this game with cranked up specs maintaining great framerates. Game just loves to crash. Even when I dumb it down to DX9, it will still crash randomly.
Now Uplay does not open, when I execute the game on Steam I ge this error "farcry3_d3d11.exe - Entry Point Not Found". Wtf is this?
Fix Uplay, but the game still crashing...
LOL Thats sad as they are even stating the wrong game for what you entered in with.... LOL
Well The only thing left that you can try is to reinstall windows for a fresh and clean os.
I should wait for a new patch or something... Install Win 7 again will be very annying for me, since a have lots os games here... About this crossfire fire and stuff, how I disable my overclock in AMD Catalyst? When a look at parformace those pointers those hands are at maximum. Maybe I didnt shut down this overclock.
