    Still no Crossfire support?

    3/17/2015 and there is still no crossfire support.

    Did I miss something?

    I find this very upsetting; this leads me to conspire about hardware bias.....but I try not to believe in such things.

    its not that there is no support

    AMD has to release Drivers to support it

    yes there was an issue with AMD crossfire when the game shipped

    ubisoft fixed the issue in late December in Patch 1.6.0 AMD simply has failed to update their drivers since 12/09/2014 and include a crossfire profile for the game


    ################################################## ##############################
    Ubisoft Entertainment
    Far Cry® 4 v1.6.0
    ################################################## ##############################


    Added hotkey for toggling the HUD on/off (F11)
    Fixed an issue when the game loaded incorrect save from Uplay Cloud
    Fixed an issue with performance drop for Crossfire Multi-GPU <--------------------------see right here ?
    Fixed an issue with broken shadows in the northern region
    Fixed various Controls issues
    Fixed various Graphic issues
    Fixed various IGE issues
    Fixed various UI issues
    Fixed various Uplay/Steam issues
    Memory usage reduced

    so you cant blame the UBISOFT for AMD's lack of Driver support

    it was AMD that Disabled crossfire support for Far Cry 4 in the drivers .. NOT UBISOFT

    contact AMD or check the AMD support forums on how to enable crossfire for Far Cry 4

    so if there is any type of a conspiracy it would be why has AMD not released a new driver? ..

    cuz possibly they have no one to code their Next driver ?

    AMD announced in February they were seeking to Hire someone to Optimize drivers for AMD products .. i do not know if that position has yet been filled

    Ehm, Crossfire works with Far Cry 4. You must create a profile for this game, and force AFR Friendly. The game runs perfectly. If you have 1.9.0 patch and see flickering, in the Techinal support section there is a guide to return at 1.8.0 patch, where crossfire was PERFECT. The majority of last games doesn't need a crossfire profile made my AMD, but only a profile created by user with AFR Friendly or with compatibility with antoher game.

    15.3 beta drivers were just released with a proper FC4 profile.
