I'm having the exact same problem - My game version has been stuck on v1.0.1 since launch, and I just get the black screen / CTD with a windows error upon trying to launch the game. I really am starting to miss the days where you could just donwload patches from a game's website and don't have to rely on the obviously broken automatic patching mechanisms.
Yeah, I'm getting the 000005 error after a black or grey windows pops up. What's weird is that the first few times I launched the game, I just got the black screen without it crashing, and I had to force close it in task manager. But now just crashes a few seconds after the black screen or window for the game comes up.Originally Posted by Vast_Girth Go to original post
I guess the serial thing can't hurt. I just reinstalled completely re-downloaded from Steam, so we'll see what happens
This should be top of their priority list, the people who can't even start the game...
How this wasn't picked up in testing I'll never know.
Game has been broken now for 2 days / 20 hours / 40 minutes, with no working resolution.
As Ubi customers we're like Alzheimers victims in a ***** house. We're constantly surprised that we're being screwed ... and we don't want to pay for it
We should be on 1.3 I believe (or 0.1.0.3). Event Viewer will tell you what version your game is.Originally Posted by Vast_Girth Go to original post
sadly I'm not running Evga or MSI applications or services. I have Asus equivalent, but neither the service or applications are running.Originally Posted by mafiaace Go to original post
I can confirm however that the basic troubleshooting steps outlined here do not work for me
additionally I tried unplugging my Corsair K70 keyboard & uninstalling logitech setpoint, but that doesn't have any impact on the error.
