    The game won't start

    Hey! I bought Far Cry Primal yesterday directly on Uplay. After the installation that went smoothly, I tried to start the game. I first have a launching window with a picture of the game and then a second black window with an orange line in the bottom that loads over and over. The game doesn't start, I don't even know what the game menu looks like.
    Can someone help me?

    PC SPECS:
    Intel Core i5-4590
    MSI Z97S SLI KRAIT EDITION ATX Gaming Motherboard
    Kingston HyperX Fury White 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3-1866 Memory
    Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
    MSI GeForce GTX 960 OC 4GB Video Card
    NZXT S340 Case
    Corsair Builder 500W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply

    PS: I have the last version of Nvidia GeForce Experience (3.3.0.95)

    I am having the same problem. Its running at 1fps and took all night to load to the first mission which was unplayable due to the frame rates. I know its not my system as it is higher than the recommended requirements. Not happy as I love this game and wanted to play it in higher resolution than on the console where I originally bought it. Please fix this or tell me how I can fix this.

    Just purchased the game myself. And guess what? I'M IN THE SUPPORT PAGE FOR UBISOFT!!!! Come on guys Just got this since it was on sale. I've tried all the following troubleshooting and the game wont launch once you click play on Uplay, it boots then does nothing I've gone and closed Steam and Uplay.

    Even changed to run as admin still got nothing. They really need to get a Rep here to look over this issue because it looks like im not the only one have the problem. Lift up your game guys and listen to feedback.


    *UPDATED IF YOU ARE RUNNING 2 MONITORS THIS WONT WORK* Apparently the game will work with 1 display only. So i would either suggest disabling your 2nd display via Nvidia or AMD multiple display settings. But still Ubi FIX IT!

    Hi guys, same problem here. Progress bar goes fast till 50% then it crawls till 99% very slowly and then, stops.
    Verified the game files multiple times, reinstalled Uplay and nothing.
