    Last update ruined FC4 when on SLI

    I'm running GeForce GTX 970 SLI with an i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz. The game rocked with excellent graphic until yesterday. Why update when it when worked perfectly before. Here's a thought and a simple fix...provide a new update that reverts the game back to the way it was. Like the old sage said, "Don't fix it if it isn't broken".

    How fast can you say:

    'Release a patch to fix the patch that fixed the patch that was broken before.'

    My fix

    Intel i7-3960x
    16GM ram
    1920x1080, 60Hz
    Win 7
    single GTX690 @347.52

    Lots of flicker after game upgrade and tried suggestions in the steam thread. Tried changing my card refresh rate from 60Hz up to 120Hz. Would have temporary affect but the flicker would come back. Tried in game refresh changes with same results. Turned in game V-Sync 'on' then changed in game refresh to 120Hz with my card at 60Hz and this seems to have taken care of the flicker. Exit and returned to game several times and the flicker seems to remain history.

    Here the same with GTX780 SLI - just updated and got the flickering. Hope this can be fixed soon, isn't playable for me. Is there a way to get back to an old update, say the one before?

    Ubisoft, Stop saying that it's not on all SLI system...
    You are the specialist to break games.

    At the beginning, I was cool but now it becomes boring...(It's Patch 1.9.0, not beta test 0.1)

    Same issue for me

    I'm also running on a GTX780 SLI' configuration, and just got the flickering back too after the update...
    Kind of boring now...

    Running WIN 7 Pro 64 bit with GTX 980 SLI. All was fine until yesterday's 1.9 patch and DLC update was installed, then the heavy flickering started. Tried last 3 NVidia drivers just for cheap thrills, no real difference in flickering, game is unplayable in SLI. Just put the game back to patch 1.8 until you get your act together and test this update properly......and consider getting rid of your QA dept since they clearly don't earn their pay.

    I totally agree. It was such a good game, now it's unplayable. My system is strong similar to yours and rocked before the update. Are you listening Ubisoft?

    Wow... Everyone just calm down. I am sure they will fix the problem asap. Until then try one of the fixes I suggested in the op, or the fix that Invert2 posted in this thread.

    Yes it does suck to have these issues right now as soon as the new DLC launches, but as good as the game was playing on version 1.8.0 it shouldn't be too hard for them to find what is different in version 1.9.0 & correct it. Everyone just needs to go ahead & create a support ticket, & send them your dxdiag & msinfo32 along with a description of the problem. No need to be rude either. All we need to do is flood their support team with support tickets for this SLI screen flicker issue. The more support tickets get sent in for this problem the higher priority this problem becomes for them, & the sooner we will get another patch to correct the problem.
