    So Ubisoft punish AMD users again... sigh.

    Running an AMD 3.2 ghz cpu, 8 gig ram, 270x with 2 gig ram... So it should be able to handle the game on high settings no problem.

    Anyway, game runs pretty badly from the off, but whenever a set piece occurs the game just breaks completely, from the truck I was supposed to run to not loading repeatedly, to the driver just sitting there motionless while I get shot.

    There's literally no excuse to sell broken games like this continuously on release.

    Tried again, same issues... version reads 1.3.0 I'm never going to buy a Ubi game day 1 ever again. I can't support this crap... and there doesn't seem to be a fix for it.

    Did you update your 270x video drivers that came out last night for far cry 4 from amd ?

    It says all my drivers are up to date. So unless I'm missing something yes.

    Latest drivers that came out yesterday are beta. That's why it's saying your drivers are up to date.

    If you can test it I'm interested to hear if it really does improve performance by 50% like they stated.

    If it makes the game playable I'll be fine with it.

    Downloading now, will report my findings. Why this is a beta driver if it's necessary to run a game I don't know... but I'll take what I can get.

    The 30 minutes I was actually able to play last night were stable except for the mouse acceleration bug.
    Running an R9 290 oc'd and an i5 4670k oc'd to 4ghz. Was averaging 80fps. Make sure you've downloaded the beta driver.
    What is your cpu? 3.2 ghz doesn't mean much, it could be an outdated cpu.

    AMD Athlon x4 740 quad core 3.2 ghz

    I'd like to update further but uplays down.

    Yeah uplay is playing silly buggers at the mo.

    Ive got an I7 2600k, 8gb ram and a 7970ghz and the game runs sweet for me on high settings, 80-90fps most of the time. Only problem ive got is when playing online mode i get massive FPS drops from 80 to 10fps, mainly when im driving or flying, happens every 10 secs so pretty unplayable, runs fine offline mode tho.

    Well the game runs better now, but I still had issues getting the driver to do anything at the start, eventually I reloaded a checkpoint and he just drove away which isn't what should be happening by a long stretch... fingers crossed things go a lot more smoothly from here, it's some progress at any rate.
