    Far Cry 5 PS4 Gold loads title screen but will not start

    I get the title screen, press x to start, it says its logging in with my PSN name and goes to a screen with two uniformed mannequins and hangs . I've uninstalled and reinstalled even rebooted the PS4 and the same thing happens over and over. I've let it sit there for twenty minutes this last time and nothing. The PlayStation is still active and I can go back to the menu with the PS button on the controller so it's definitely the game. Really frustrating.

    hello wildhunterdave,

    Thank you for reporting this to us.

    Please try the Restore Licenses and Rebuild Database options from the FAQ here, as these can help with issues such as this.

    Thank you

    I did the rebuild database and restore content and I'm still getting the same result, it's hanging at the mannequins.

    Same issue

    I am also having the same issue as mentioned above. I have tried doing what was mentioned as well and I am sill stuck at the mannequin screen.

    I reinstalled everything again and still it hangs at the mannequins. Ubisoft club seems to be logging in as it says I played the game but it never gets to the actual game just the mannequins.

    Thanks for trying that.

    Is the game fully installed? You can check this by highlight the main in the main PS menu, pressing the Options button and selecting Information. This should show if there are any installations continuing in the background.

    Did you actually select one of the mannequins with Left Stick and pressed X after that?

    cskiller86 nailed it!

    I thought it was a hanging loading screen as there was no indication that I needed to select one of the mannequins.
    Moving the left stick gives the indicator to confirm a selection.

    Just did the same on the xbox

    Even reinstalled it. "Choose a character" is just too traditional I imagine
