Trust him. He is right.

I did and it's half true, ok for black shadow at night and ok for fps (60 with insignifiant drop). Still have textures gosthing after visting a shop or the main menu, crazy gpu temp in ultra mode....
Any solution for me???
Using a gtx 760 4Go SLI.
i7 3770K OC at 4.7 Ghz (offset mode, gonna try at stock)
16 Go ram
This game seems to push temps to new levels. Using ultra with the nvidia gameworks settings on and txaa, the only way I could get my gtx980 stable with THIS game is to use a custom automatic fan curve. The 980's fan for some reason never goes above 70%, I made a fan curve, and I am back to 1450 boost and 8080 mem clock. See if yours is the same deal (if you don't already use altered fan settings) EVGA PrecisionX 16 is good, better than Afterburner if you want the fan curve. Or set your fans to 100% before launching FC4 or make a profile to do it for you...If you don't mind the extra bit of noise ;)
Shadows, textures, fur...and most of the game (lol) is still screwed atm. I am sure they will get a couple more things sort of fixed for Christmas sales.
Screw stuttering, I want working save system back. I want to play MY GAME!!!
Same here buddy. Apart from SMAA texture bake in and having to change my SLI bits so I can actually play the game at night, I did not experience any of the reported issues (I have a ton of USB devices plugged in for example)
But..... Then I loaded Patch 1.5, boy to I regret accepting that pop-up. Game crashes without fail, 3/4 into loading screen when selecting continue. Have tried online, offline, new game. Altered graphical settings. Hell, I even deleted the troublesome FC64.dll, the exe and other files and had the 'Verify Game Files' option re-download them to no avail. For some reason the map editor and multiplayer works just fine. Just cannot play the actual game anymore.
Logged a ticket with Ubisoft on the 11th, where they claim to respond in two working days. Yet I am still waiting for anything after the automated reply where they make the 2 business day claim.
I really regret buying the game. The point of buying on launch day is TO PLAY THE GAME! Otherwise I could have waited for bargain bin a couple of months in or the half price discount from the 'oh crap, we're sorry for all the bugs' PR stunt.
At least they are consistent, Ubisoft does not have good programmers, that much is clear. Great animators, writing not too shabby. But no good programmers. They should speak to Crytek, Dice or Epic. They know how to get max graphics WITH max performance. Just drop the TurdvilNext (Anvilnext), Dunia and anything else they designed themselves and go with Cryengine. It's had all the new shiny features of the Unreal engine 4, literally for years already, and is very well optimised, definitely the cream of the crop.
So, while I spend my festive season, NOT playing the game I bought FOR the festive season, the time of the year where I finally have more than a weekend off and can finally binge game a little. I hope the turd jokey responsible for the working game to break from the patch get's run over by truck, then violated by a hobo as he lies there. Has a cat poop on him, humped in the face by a stray dog and then run over by a truck again. May the odds for-never be in your favour, go drink a cup of urine and do your best max payne impression.
Ubisoft, theres a fairly big memory leak in 1.5.0
Any word on 1.5.1 or something to get that corrected?
having to restart after 4-5 deaths (or 3-4 load screens, or ~2 hours playtime) to clear my ram is getting a little old. :(
Why I can not launch the ****ing game with my 2014 model Pentium Anniversary Edition G3258 CPU ? WHAT DA ****!
this is a joke ...
fx-8350
16 gb of memory
ssd samsung evo 840 pro
gtx 970 oc
windows 8.1
and this piece of c..p still stutters, fix the game and don't send me to the technical support as I am IT with 7 years of experience
Optimize you products...
Last time Ubisoft !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No more Assassin Creed no more Far Cry on pc or console bye bye
I don't know if i am the only one with this strange "bug" but after the latest update i cannot zoom using binoculars.
Best way i can describe this issue is that i am looking through binoculars but when i'm using mouse wheel i can see that image is getting closer/further but when i release the wheel it turns automatically to the default position.
So basically binoculars at this point are completely useless:/
Great patch, now my game crashes on startup...
basically certain things that should happen in the game aren't happening for example; at the start when you go down stairs and open the door sometimes that door wont open ,it says "hold E" but nothing happens when i do and if i then can open the door if i restart from checkpoint then the character who should be chained in the torture chamber is just standing and no one is talking then if i can get outside and run to the car and get in the car the driver doesn't do anything and i just sit in the car getting shot at. and that's just the problems with the first part of the game. also sorry if i am posting this in the wrong place i am just not too used to using forums if i am honest.
i have been looking everywhere for the past 2 days to find if anyone else has had this problem but cant find anyone
i have a AMD FX(tm)-4130 Quad-Core Processor, a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 and 8GB ram.
i have verified the files and made sure drivers are up to date.
someone please help:)
Hi all
Not sure why we are encouraged to log support tickets.
Below is my thread with support: (You will notice that my ticket was logged in the 11th, to this day, no replies...)
Communication History
Freakalusion12/21/2014 11:35:21 PM Hi there
Still no reply, I see the forums are full of people with the same issue. Is this being addressed currently? Can I get any sort of reply from absolutely anyone. Even the tea lady can give her opinion at this stage.
Kind regards,
Freakalusion12/17/2014 5:53:06 PM Hi there
Still no reply. Please guys, I have installed the new beta drivers from Nvidia and no change. Come on guys, I want to look past everything Ubisoft is doing wrong right now so badly but the ball is being dropped, literally in every possible way.
Any suggestions are welcome, you don't have to reply with a definitive fix. I will even allow a support engineer to connect to my machine on team viewer if required. Let's just resolve.
Freakalusion12/14/2014 8:54:22 PM Hi
Still no reply from you guys? Please expedite if possible. More information:
-- I have tried starting a new game Online and offline. Crashes exactly the same spot
-- Played the 5 v 5 multiplayer. That seems to work. However you can see the graphics for the multiplayer is dumbed down so probably specific to an asset the FC64.dll is trying access (Maybe a dependency dll or the dll itself)
-- I deleted the EXE, FC54.dll and all the NVidia gameworks dll's and verified game files prompting a fresh download of the files. Behavior remains the same.
-- Set all settings to low making sure NVidia specific features are switched off. Crashes same spot.
-- I can run the map editor and enable all graphical settings as well as enter 'play' mode from map editor and works just fine.
-- The problem then, is isolated to the main game. Neither continue, new game with offline or online works. It crashes without fail 3/4 into the loading screen.
On a side note, the file properties do not reflect patch 1.5, they state 1.0.1 etc. however the game shows 1.5. Could the verification (verify files) be downloading the wrong files? Or dev just forgot to update the file properties :-)
Other info I previously omitted:
-- Win 8.1 Enterprise 64bit
-- Core i7 2600k
-- 8 GB DDR 3 2400MHz (Kingston 2X4GB)
-- SLI GTX 680 (Both cards are MSI)
-- Far Cry 4 installed on my Patriot Pyro 240GB SSD
-- Uplay on normal storage (game and uplay not on same drive in other words)
-- XBOX 360 controller added. have played the game up until now with it
-- Using either my on board realtek audio for surround sound (whatever comes with the Gigabyte X38 UD7), or my Corsair Vengeance 2100 wireless headset.

Freakalusion12/11/2014 4:52:09 PM Far Cry 4 has been working without major issues (just the Screen bake when SMAA is on and the black shadow issue on SLI). However, now that I have updated to 1.5 I can no longer play the game. I have 'Verified Game files" over 10 times now. But it crashes without fail three quarters into loading screen when selecting continue game. I have changed graphical settings in case there is a problem there but nothing changes. Event log shows that the EXE and FC64.dll are the culprits. Please fix urgently, I have not had issues until updating, should it not be the reverse?
Bought Watch Dogs, got screwed.
Bought Far Cry 4, got screwed.
Nearly bought Assassin's Creed Unity, we all know how that turned out.
The next time any of you get the sudden urge to buy a Ubisoft game.... Go lie down and wait for the feeling to subside.
Please, for the love of everything that moves, put back in the FOV slider (or not bypass the FOV command in GamerProfile.XML) for 21:9 resolutions! It's very, very sickening to play on 21:9 with such unplayable FOV. I seriously can't handle it. It's a shame because I bought this game and was REALLY loving it on my 1920 x 1080 monitor. I upgraded to a 3440 x 1440 monitor and bang - the game is totally unplayable! :(
You are obviously a stoge for the company
I bought far cry 4 a month ago and just now waited 3hrs for this update to load and STILL I GET A BLACK that is A -BLACK SCREEN you thieving monkey.
I HATE UBISOFT
rhippymitch@yahoo.com.au - sent this message Im Thinking of becoming a Muslim.
Since last update game keeps freezing randomly when saving a mission starting a mission or saving manually. nothing seems to get saved anymore. i think my save game is corrupted due to a full screen freeze. when starting the 3rd mission of yogi and reggie the game freezes when i got up in the cave. after that saving has been impossible. On the south Island i completed everything got every chest mask diary. really everything and i was half way north Island... im surely not going to start over!!
is there a way to fix it?
I keep reading in your forums about patches being available but no where do I see where these patches are downloadable from.. I am experiencing a graphic window kernel error and my a message that say my graphic card has crashes and recovered.
I am at a loss.. Some help Please

Bonjour mon jeu bug je suis obliger d enlever le port usb de la manette?mais il recommence aussitot
knife fix needed !!!
too much distance ...
too much stable trajectory for knife ...
armor must protect from knife ... - only head attack !
100% protect for heavy armored-soldiers !
I see an ability to abort a mission...that can help big time (haven't noticed it before).
Only way i got out of an endless loop was by resetting the outposts and forts to enemy control;
thankfully i was at a point where i could do it.
ubi should tone down how much footsoldiers elbow you when you get close. it's annoying because they do it WAY too much, and sometimes it feels like there's too much of a distance between me and them when they knock me down.
Controller issue (which we solve(!) with ALT+TAB) is still alive.
Ubisoft, best company after Beyond Good & Evil, Splinter Cell, Prince of Persia, AC 2 and FC3
but worst company after Watch Dogs, Unity and FC4.
Great job guys.
Good afternoon Misty,
Can you please tell me where I can download the patches? I have been searching for them since I loaded the game onto my PC, to no avail! I've searched all over and haven't been able to find the patches anywhere.
*geezer moment* I'd really like to just play the game on my own computer and not play with/against anyone else. Whatever happened to the good old days where you just loaded the game onto your hard drive (without any problems), didn't have to create an online account for something that is not described in any of the non-existent manuals for the game, and just play disconnected from the Web? If I had wanted to play an online game, I'd have resubscribed to Warcraft! Okay, I'm better now.
Thanks, in advance, for any help you can provide me regarding the location of the patches and how to apply them.
Geyordah
thx
How about you spend some time working on the BLACK BLANK SCREEN at start up I haven't been able to play this game yet buddy!!
I first posted a problem on this forum six months ago, I have just worked out _ that _ UBI don't read this whining from their customers - they don't CARE they have got my (STOLEN MY) money already. Figure it out for your self - all these problems, all these complaints NoThInG DONE!!!
