    Far Cry 3 Crashing Upon Launch.

    So upon launching Far Cry 3, the box with the logo appears, and then the game loads shortly after, and then it crashes. I've tried verifying the files and run in Administrator mode, to no avail. Any fixes available? EDIT: Blood Dragon works perfectly fine, it's just 3 that has this issue
    SPECS:

    OS: Windows 10

    GPU: NVIDIA GTX 960M 2GB

    CPU: Intel i7 4720 2.6GHz

    RAM: 8GB

    I'm having that problem right now, Lt. Prezess, but can you explain "disk C"? I'm not understanding what you mean.

    disk or drive C = same drive as your windows install

    also make sure you have the current version of Uplay installed .. if you bought the game on steam it'll install an old version .. here is how to correct it

    1) open task manager, (Win key + X) find the following process: UbisoftGameLauncher.exe, and end the process.


    2) After that, go to add \ remove programs in your windows control panel


    (press win key + X select apps and features .. look on the right side and select Programs and features) .


    select uninstall UPlay and then exit once its done


    3) Download and reinstall Uplay PC from https://uplay.ubi.com , as this will update the client to the latest version .


    4) Launch the game again.


    If you are still having issues , please go to the Support site for your region and open a support ticket, try webchat or
    initiate a phone call direct to support (if available for your region )
    you can find phone number\ support options \ and support hours information @ https://support.ubi.com/en-GB/Contact#en-gb
