    CRASHING randomly but frequently!!!!

    Please Ubi, I have bought many games from you so please help me. I only have a problem with Far Cry Primal and no other game, it keeps crashing randomly but it crashes very often!

    My system specs:
    X99s Gaming 7
    i7-5930K @ 4.2GHz
    4x4GB Hyper X DDR4 2400MHz
    2x EVGA GTX 980 Ti hybrid SLi
    Samsung PRO 850 256GB
    Windows 8.1 x64

    Far Cry Primal runs very well on my computer in terms of performance but why does it keep crashing, this is the only game that does it!?

    Well anyways I found the solution. It was because Windows 8.1 does not like FCP, when I upgraded to Windows 10, I have played for about 2 hours so far with no crashes, whereas in W8.1 there was a crash every 5-30 mins.

    They should state on the requirements that FCP needs Windows 10 to run properly.

    yes well it's very strange, because now I have played for about 5 hrs under W10 and have had 0 crashes, if I was still on W8.1 I would have had atleast 10-20 crashes by now.

    I'm running windows 7

    I have this issue with an AMD Radeon (TM) R9 380 Series ...I'm running Windows 7 and it crashes every 5-30 minutes randomly ...I played the 1st 6 hours flawlessly though so its weird that this just started happening, I'm thinking a patch is in order

    I run windows 8.1 on my system below went 18 hours no crash so 8.1 isn't the problem but glad you got it working
