    Hi there!

    Well, does going online with Uplay change anything? If you do so and it then launches without a problem, you should be able to switch back to offline.

    I have the same issue and no playing on-line first doesn't change anything ... it still won't play off-line.
    Playing another game off-line ... i.e. Wildlands (a game that has an unlocked FOV for Ultra wide and multi monitor unlike all the Far Cry games) and then playing New Dawn off-line will work.
    You have to do this every time you want to play off line.

    Whilst you are addressing this issue off line issue ...
    Please pay attention to the fact that Far Cry Games have a locked FOV unlike all other recent UBI game when in ultra wide and multi monitor.
    At least give us a valid reason for locking it!

    You say you listen but on this one subject you just say it isn't going to happen without giving any reason ... yet all other recent UBI games don't lock the FOV in this way.

    Hello everybody,

    I've had a word with the Uplay team about this - the issue you are describing is going to be fixed in an upcoming Uplay update.
    I'm sure there will be more info on it soon, but rest assured that you will not have to wait much longer!

    Cheers,
    CJ
