    Newest patch has broken game

    I am getting flicker bands and stuttering again since the last patch. I am running SLI and have tried alt+tabbing etc I have read elsewhere to fix it to no avail.

    Between this and AC:Unity I have not had any good luck with Ubi games and am very hesitant to leave these on my computer or buy again from you. ACU is a mess and has been unplayable since it came out.

    Please start fixing these issues. I have made a couple tickets so far that have gone unanswered and will not support a company like this anymore.

    02104089 is the most recent one. I've yet to hear back on it at all so far.

    Also, why doesn't this forum leave me logged in? Very annoying to have to log in every time.

    Thank you

    yes same problem here, its exactly the same thing as assassins creed Unity. Hopeless support for SLI. Ubisoft is not going to get a good reputation for this. I used to pre order every game, So far i will be waiting for assassins creed rogue for ages and also tom clancy the division. I usually pre order high end packs for games with collector content but its a total waste with UBI.

    Farcry now unplayable as its so annoying, and assassins creed unity has been hopeless since launch.

    This is the reason I will NEVER pre-order a game. Why give them money for something that's not proven, esp after the track record most fo these companies have at release. You need to prove to me its worth my money, and no I don't care if I have it at release, esp due to these same reasons...

    They will not do anything for you except blame the user.

    I have found that this thread was more helpful that tech support:

    "I have found a much better fix on another thread. Thanks to jrmanders

    This one really does work.
    Update: AlphaToCoverage doesn't matter. Just forcing 16xAF & setting LightingQuality to "ultrahigh" in the GamerProfile.xml file is working for me."

    "Camera and cutscenes blurry"
    "Blurry camera should go if you turn off AA in-game. "

    This actually fixed the game for me; however, this is just a temp fix.

    This idiotic forum wont even keep me logged in.

    I have tried many of the temp fixes to no avail. the alt+enter works some times, but usually not for long at all. Ubi needs to fix this...

    I am also getting constant game crashes if I try to join Co-op games. The game is unplayable like this. Please fix Ubi, this is ridiculous. The flickering is making me sick to my stomach/woozy!

    Still no fix from Ubi.

    I can't join Co-op games at all, and the SLI flickering still exists... Ubi blames a FC64.dll file for the crash, and the patch for the flickering, but no indication of when or how to fix it.

    If they blame FC64.dll, did you try verifying your game files and/or deleting that one file?
