    Clicking on the minimap does not work. In fact the whole area of the right monitor is "mouseless". cannot click on the minimap nor on the icons of the hud. cannot exit the game because the are you sure you want to quit pop up window does not appear. it works using only one monitor. again ubisoft you did it. major hud problems, bravo. anybody with the same issue? any fix?

    well I verified and also reinstalled the game. did not solve a thing. just plain old ubisoft error. I mean after years they still cannot make a game to be ready. or at least without some basic issue. 3 monitors are not that rare anymore but they just like to ignore this fact. ubisoft....

    Actually both The Crew and Anno 2070 worked pretty well out of the box on multi-monitor systems when they came out. Also, Ubisoft are the publishers not the developers, Blue Byte developed the game, so the responsibility lies with them.

    well if a product is bad or not working no one cares about who built the parts. with this logic if you buy anything the publishers are just innocents. well no they are not. because they are the publishers and they bought it form a third party they are responsible for any fault. ubisoft should run the tests, and if they bought the game as half done they are responsible to finish it. so after purchasing the developed software you are the developer because the software in this case the game is not working properly. if they have no idea about how to develop then they should not publish any game and leave it to other companies. I do not think that anyone would care if their car broke down and cause a fatal accident that it was some Chinese company`s fault. they would go after the naming company here this would be the publisher. by the way blue byte belongs to ubisoft. it is subsidiary of ubisoft. therefore ubisoft is the developer.

    the crew. not a bad game, but a horrible port to pc. blue byte was founded in 1988 and they made significant contribution to the pc gaming industry but as years passed they way behind to port games well to pc. their game cannot satisfy the need of the customers. and they falling behind. a lots of companies can keep up. they just not good enough to build pc games properly. and that is a fact. as an old time settlers fan I must say it is said because settlers was a brilliant series but they just not good enough anymore. and ubisoft own them now they cannot easily lay them down. but owning a developer company makes you developer yourself. in a sense of course.

    I have a 3-Monitor-Setup, too (3x27": 5760x1080). I'd prefer the menu only on the middle monitor.

    Same here

    Eyefinity 3 screen 5014 X 1080

    Nothing work on right screen: minimap, select a building or a right clic to send the boat in this area.
    Confirmation menu doesn't appear when i'm trying to delete a commercial way or just to quit the game

    The menu is here when I set the resolution to 1650 X 1080 with three monitor, it appear on the right screen.

    Still no resolution

    So I know me and my roommate play this everyday and still have not found a resolution to this. Don't know if anyone else has finally found a fix.My resolution in game is 7650 X 1080 and only the left half of the resolution can be clicked on. Same as above. Screens are only getting bigger and it would be nice to get this fixed.
