    Mine unlocked and loads (UK). Wont save though, despite going through several check points. Also has an annoying refresh bug where you get a black flash on your screen every now and then that lasts for a fraction of a second. Happens randomly. And as soon as I get in to the first gun fight it crashed. And thanks to it not remembering my progress I had to start again

    DVD version (box) is available at any time. I bought and installed yesterday and played just after installation (Uplay). I got polish version (Release date at 18 November, 8 am).

    Can you check what version of the game you have?

    Mine seems to be version 1.0 which seems as though its pre-patched.

    Check in the readme file at E:\Programs\Ubisoft Game Launcher\games\Far Cry 4\Support\Readme\English or wherever your game is installed

    Did you ask what version he has? I read a post on Neogaf that some people have been using VPN to unlock it early, but its only affecting the Steam version. The uPlay-only version is not unlockable via VPN.

    He said the Uplay version and not using a VPN or the cracked EXE but it's officially unlocked.

    The preload version that I have (not unlockable yet) the readme states v1.2. Obviously cant check in game for another 7 or so hours.

    Thats strange. You should ask how/where he bought it. If he bought a third party key (i.e. a key selling shop) they could be from other regions and those orders are already "processed".

    I ask this because the uPlay version wont work with a VPN because unlocking seems to be based on where you "bought" it. If you look at order history in the Ubishop, it wont be playable until the order changes to completed. So if you live in the UK (Im in the US) you have to wait til midnight for Ubi to complete the "order" even if the game is in your library. Thats why the Steam version is unlocking for some, the order is not Ubi controlled.

    hmmmm, mine still says 1.0 after verifying my files. Looks like I'll have to wait in order for a patch to install.
