    Still bugged.

    Why is this game still bugged after all this time. After finding out how to quit some of the really rubbish missions, I mean having to go to the escape menu to quit a mission, really? Anyway you quit a mission and the instructions for that mission given by whomever keep on repeating over and over. The only way to stop them is to quit the game.

    And why can't I recruit Boomer? I kill all the cult members but he stays looked up in his cage.

    If you're still getting the mission instructions after cancelling then you need to untrack the mission.

    To do this, go into your journal and click the mission so that the icon is no longer yellow.
    You can also track/untrack missions by clicking their respective icons on the map screen.

    To get boomer, shoot his cage to open it and when he's out pet him. He'll then be available in the roster.

    you are not describing bugs... but you trying to change the way the game is meant to be played, and or not knowing how to do things in it from not reading the tutorial... btw you get boomer and others out of cages by shooting the doors.. .. it is not a bug if you can't figure out some of the simple puzzles that are part of game play

    Yes, I shot the cage and nothing happened. As I remember on my first playthrough Boomer let himself out. I was checking the body that is along the drive and there he was beside me.

    The bug with missions I mention is the voice of the character that is involved in the mission keeps repeating over and over. For example: 'now's you time to shine follow the helicopter'. 'now's you time to shine follow the helicopter'. 'now's you time to shine follow the helicopter'. And it doesn't stop what ever I do.

    If you are using the Steam version try verifying the game files, just in case anything is corrupted.

    Right-click the game title in your library, then > properties > local files > verify integrity of game files.

    ^^^^^ do that even if the Unplay version... and not saying you are but... "IF" you are playing the PC version and you have the settings set higher than your PC can actually handle you can get all kinds of goofy random and recurring bugs. especially if the CPU is being over taxed

    Yep.PC version on U-play. With a i7 and 1080 ti I would think my computer capable of running FC5 just fine.

    Open a support ticket.

    As already mentioned, your issue is unique and not something other people have been experiencing (as far as I'm aware). So your best bet is to contact Ubisoft technical support and open a support ticket.

    If you have high end or low end pc it doesn't matter on the game. Bugs you described has nothing to do with your PC specs.


    I'm aware that he doesn't need to contact Ubi, because (as we all know) answer will be like: "update your GPU driver", "uninstall screen recording applications", "verify game files", "reinstall game and Uplay", etc.... All these can't help, it's needed that Ubi implements some debugging in their games, and somebody who have a bug, just turn it on and send them an output from debug. Of course, this will be never.


    I'm also playing on i7 8700k and 1080ti and I don't have any of these bugs.
