    Sick and tired of this broken game! Cannot SAVE -cannot climb ropes. WTH Ubi!?

    I'm so sick and tired of playing this opening mission over and over, trying to progress in this broken game.

    First the game NEVER saves. my only option is "save and quit".. And then when I go back in game I am right at beginning, with no weapons..

    *EDIT*- 1.40 fixed that because I was able to progress pat first rope climb.

    Then today I get to the point where you are supposed to climb the rope and there is NO FREAKING ROPE. I had no sound at the time because I alt-tabbed out of the game and then switched inputs on my receiver and apparently you have some content protection DRM or something where all sound goes away if you switch HDMI inputs. If not, your sound is broken. The rest of the sound on my PC worked.

    So I was forced to retry again for the 5th flipping time- got to the rope, and this time they threw a rope down! Oh joy. I get to progress after two days..

    NOPE.

    I get on rope and the icon says left mouse to "ascend"... "num 1 descend" (my aim key) Well it doesn't work. Cannot ascend, cannot descend, - All I can do is jump and go side to side. I haven't even changed the bind for that ascend key.

    So I figure maybe the game will save since I got that far.

    I hit "save and quit".. Go back in game and I am right back to the beginning. What the hell is wrong with this broken game? Why wont it save my damned progress! I turned off steam cloud save, there is no other options anywhere. I am not going top keep playing the beginning of this game over and over, it is pointless.

    I wonder if I pirated it if I would have all these same issues? probably not...

    Such a bunch of BS. I pay 60 bucks for an so-called "AAA' title and it is nothing but bugs and glitches, and the game is completely broken. Unplayable.

    I guess I want my money back, because I cannot play the thing, and I am sick and tired of trying to "fix it".. It is a complete failure.
    That is not even considering broken key binding, broken mouse aiming, broken 5.1 surround with realtek sound cards in Win 7 via optical cable, stuttering, glitching, gfx bugs (I have a few more movies to show even more ridiculous gfx bugs)..

    EDIT
    Patch 1.4.0 fixed ropes w/o me doing anything.
    So that proves it was obviously a game bug with key binding. Nothing to do with "my PC setup".. so all who said it is can go to....

    I play this game with a single GTX660 and it runs fine, play fine, superb graphics. Just remove all the porn from your machine.

    But it was a cool story bro.

    game works flawlessly for me, saves perfectly as well with cloud saves. disable the uplay overlay for all games, then play it. just click launch game and ignore the warning about not using uplay overlay.

    Yup, this game is broken, and I want my money back. So how do I go about getting $$ back?

    overclocked cpu ?
    sli ?
    wierd mouse drivers ?
    tsr`s messing with your config ?

    you dont even give a list of software you are running.


    are you expecting someone to come round and check your setup for you ?


    eg~: with advanced mouse drivers installed my controls do exactly what yours are doing,so i turned them off...and voila...all working



    people really shouldnt spend or operate outside thier ability to use properly

    No it doesn't work "flawlessly" for anyone. Stop lying. Doesn't save for a lot of people.



    I suppose it is my fault the rope didn't come down from the cliff huh? My fault the controls and key-binds are fubar right? My fault no button combination will cause player to climb rope huh? yeah right.. my PC must be total crap. :-/ it couldn;t possibly be that it is the broken game though, just maybe.. If you can read this forum, you'd see.

    actually it does run flawlessly on other peoples rigs.

    mine included

    you just have to know that sticking diesel in a ferrari or feeding an arabian thoroughbred porridge and jaffa cakes is going to cause problems.


    i`ll bet you now if you pull out your mouse and go buy a 2.99 cheapo mouse it`ll work,as well as removing all that overclocking and twiddling you have done.

    its a CONSOLE PORT,,and as with all console ports if it isnt on a console you have to know what your system is doing and what it cant do with console ported games.

    Weird drivers? WTF are you smoking? "advance mouse drivers install my controls?" What are you even saying?
    So what if I OC? It makes no difference to key-binding. Do you know anything about computers? List of what software? I'm running this game, that's what software.

    All other games work perfectly, only this broken game has problems, and i think I'm an expert in PC building and configuration compered to you by the sounds of it.

    Try again.

    Please just shut up. Nothing wrong with my mouse. Stable OC is stable and you are a fool if you think it is affecting key bindings in this game. Works in every other game. I have different key binding that you obviously.. So you are wrong.

    You're someone who doesn't know what you are talking about and can barely type, why would I even listen to you? I am talking about KEY BINDING ISSUED and GAME BUGS - are you slow? Are you thick? I have different key bindings obviously it has nothing to do with my CPU or mouse. Or a diesel or a Ferrari or any other type of crap you are spouting.

    Let me guess, you worked on this game right? Shill for Ubi? Producing garbage and lashing out when it breaks?
