    Same here crashing with my MSI R9 380 4gb. Once i go to the northern area's i crash within 5 minutes. Crash goes to black screen, sound still on. I have to open the task manager and close the program. In Win 10 event manager i get the error: amdkmdap failed.

    This happens on AC: Syndicate too!!!! Somehow related to the AMD Drivers i'm afraid.

    ( the drivers are the latest. tried both the hotfix and the verified WHQL release ) Other games work fine even on the highest settings. ( no probs at all with Witcher 3 for example! )

    Was feeling hopeful when i heard a new patch came out, didn't even tested it yet but after reading the feedback i see i don't need to. Well done ubisoft, makes me wonder what kind of computer techs you have working for you.

    I went to AMD site the other day and read latest driver's release notes, Far Cry wasn't on their "known issues" list, so I sent them a note; I doubt this will change anything, but maybe if we all write to them they will at least acknowledge the issue. Still, I'm not sure this is a problem AMD should solve (someone with Nvidia cards also get the issue) or Ubisoft; what I know is that today, like yesterday, I couldn't play the game for reasons not depending on my hardware and that's quite as disappointing as not a word has been said from Ubisoft but "check that you didn't cause the problem"; what's the point in having a technical issues section like this one to begin with?

    I have the same issues and I'm using nVidia. The recent patch seems to have fixed the problem for me but I'll not get too excited just yet. I've had FC:P play fine before only to crash in the way described in this thread the very next time I try to load it.

    Maybe this patch has fixed the issue for nVidia users but not AMD?

    Northern area problem!

    I also have the same problem! R9 380 4GB GPU, and it crashes when I'm in the northern areas of the game.

    This is pretty annoying. It's a good game, but this way, it's just not playable.
    Please fix it, it's frustrating and disappointing buying a game, and having those kinds of
    problems!

    The patch that they released earlier doesn't do ****. It's just a language fix or something. So many severe problems but they focus on trivial things like this. I am never going to get how these companies work.

    They won't fix this, I am nearly sure of it now. We're just wasting our times.
