    Farcry 4 Black screen (game crash) at startup. Help!

    Hi

    I recently purchased Farcry 4 and all i get is a black screen and then the game stops working.
    This is just very disapointing.

    If you know a way to fix it then please post a comment on how to fix it

    Latest patch broke game, now having game crash out

    I just installed the 1.8 patch and it broke my game, I'm trying to find the 1.7 patch to downgrade back to. Could you please help me?

    My specs are amd a8 apu,8gb vengeance ram, r7 260x oc, and win 7 ultimate.

    Everything but multiplayer and co-op was working just fine, was on my 3rd playthrough until patch 1.8 came out, and now I cannot play at all. xMisty, this is the only time I really can't figure out wtf the problem is.

    It could be an installation error. In this case that might help:



    But before that make sure you have uncorrupted version of Uplay:

    Thanks, had to reverify twice, and redownload the patch again. Funally, this patch actually does something for the game, it's running so much smoother.

    Glad it helped.
    For some reason the instructions in my my picture are nowhere to be found in this forum sticky threads or even on support FC4 FAQ page, and they refuse to make it easy to find...

    May be they just don't want to admit their patches installations go wrong too often...
