    Game doesn't save

    Hello all,

    I have played for two hours en saved it and closed FC4
    I started up FC 4 again and quess what?

    In the torture chamber i was, what ever i do, i come back there.


    I read this post, which was closed with the reference to ubi support. \
    I went there an saw no solution to this problem.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For some reason every progress after entering the torture chamber right after you get control is NOT getting saved. When I reload the game it always brings me back to the torture chamber right before you meet the first rebel leader. Anybody having a similiar issue?

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    So can admins not close this one?
    And please help, 2 and half hours of gaming are gone!

    Thx in advance

    Yea Mase1978, you have to finish the first mission. Make it to the Bell Tower, which is not very far. It only takes about 10 minutes. But you still will not be able to save your game even after that, cause there is no save game in farCry 4.

    I was at the bell tower, and couldn't climb up.
    Did a lot of exploring and searching before i got there :P

    It said press left mouse button to climb, but did not work.

    I quit ( and saved the game ) to search for solution, when i went back in the game ( toture chamber ).

    You say: there's no save game in FC 4? Even after completing mission...

    WTF? I remember me saving in FC 1 FC 2 FC 3 ( safe house ) to save where ever i want.

    Can someone clarify this?

    I have exactly the same problem on PC. I save & quit. When I come back, it's torture room again. Checkpoints are not saving points ?

    I tried to run the game in admin mode. No luck.
    I tried to disable cloud save. No luck.

    I don't know what to do :'(

    Otherwise, the game works perfectly so far with an i5 and amd radeon 7870.

    Same problem here!

    Hi all,

    Have exactly the same problem, just made it to the first tower, before the fight begins, see a lot of save/waypoints on my way to get there, you know the 2 knifes logo says it's saving. When I quit the game and start it later to go further I was back at the torture room...

    Missing my collected gun/midipacks and it's over and over again. (long intro/car crash) Tried the run as admin tip, did a uninstall and reinstall for uplay and FC4... Nothing workt so far.

    Somebody has a "try to" tip? (Or do you really need to go further before it's saved??

    Thanks!

    Found a fix.

    So I found how to overcome this problem.

    Here's what I did:
    - Launched the game and loaded the last save (torture chamber)
    - Minimized the game and went into the folder with the game saves, for me it was: X:\Program Files\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames\d90e9e76-e067-407a-a223-d679c7b17fe3\420, shouldn't be too hard to find.
    - Deleted the files there.
    - Next time when the yellow icon showed up in the top right corner (After the car falls off the cliff), I saw the files reappearing in the folder.
    - I tried to save and quit, and then return to the game and it worked, last save was after the car crash.

    I played some more afterwards and finished the prologue, afterwards saves appear to work normally.

    Hope this helps.

    FFS Ubisoft Repair This Buggy Game

    Hi guys,

    Well glad to see i'm not alone with this problem.

    I did try this:

    Here's what I did:
    - Launched the game and loaded the last save (torture chamber)
    - Minimized the game and went into the folder with the game saves, for me it was: X:\Program Files\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames\d90e9e76-e067-407a-a223-d679c7b17fe3\420, shouldn't be too hard to find.
    - Deleted the files there.
    - Next time when the yellow icon showed up in the top right corner (After the car falls off the cliff), I saw the files reappearing in the folder.
    - I tried to save and quit, and then return to the game and it worked, last save was after the car crash.


    but i didnt work for me.

    What about the climbing part: You need to rebind your key so that it works.

    @ ubisoft: I'm heading to a big disappointment about this game and all this buggy $h!T aint worth 60 euro's.
    Sadly i did bought the limited version, in expectation, that it will be a great game and it is. BUT(T) i want a great game experience and not a buggy experience.

    How long i will have to wait, so that i can play my paid version normally, and not have to wait till some admin reads this, and does something about. it.

    PLEASE FIX THESE PROBLEMS.

    Im very disappointed......

    Anyway for my other friends in this thread i have the following:

    How to Fix Far Cry 4 Crashes, Errors, Black screen, No audio, Mouse acceleration, Not responding, FC64 DLL

    While a strong contender for one of this year’s top games, Far Cry 4 doesn’t seem to be without game-breaking issues. Many users are reporting black screens, launch failures, missing audio, mouse acceleration issues, errors, and other critical issues when trying to run Far Cry 4. While the developers have been at hard work trying to patch these errors, we’ve compiled a list of known, working, solutions to help you out. Read on to find your fix!
    How to Fix Far Cry 4 Crashes, Errors, Black screen, No audio, Mouse acceleration, Not responding, FC64 DLL
    1. Black screen when launching Far Cry 4

    Disable HID devices that have no effect on your peripherals as well as HID-compliant game controller. You can do this via device manager in the Human Interface Devices (HID) section.

    If this doesn’t fix it alone, proceed to unplug other gaming devices such as steering wheels and pedals.

    Still unfixed? Try moving your game controller USB into another port.
    2. No audio fix

    Disable Dolby Live setting in Windows audio. Put it back on 2 channels and the audio will work fine.
    3. Mouse acceleration fix

    Go find your GamerProfile.xml file in documentsmygamesfar cry 4 and find the lines that say UseMouseSmooth, Smoothness, and Smoothness_ironsights, set them all to zero.
    4. Far Cry 4 Not Responding fix

    Unplug all USB devices and let the intro sequence play through. Afterwards, you can plug your gamepad and the game should run fine.
    5. Cannot climb rope in first mission

    Restore to default or rebind fire to any keyboard button helps.
    6. Game not launching

    If you have MSI Afterburner, shut it off. The game should now run fine. If this doesn’t fix it, please try our fix for problem 1 in this list.
    7. Poor textures, fuzzy textures

    This is an in-game glitch, and for now the workaround is to set textures at medium.
    8. FC64.dll Error, Update Error

    If you’re getting these errors, sorry but you may be running a pirated copy of Far Cry 4. Most of the users reporting these errors claim to run cracked copies.
    9. How to skip Far Cry 4 intro videos

    Add “-skipintro” (without quotations) to Far Cry 4’s launch options in Steam.
    General Tip: Still getting crashes and errors?

    Just two things:

    Make sure all your drivers are updated
    Make sure all your DLL files are complete and not corrupted
