    As a result I spoke to customer service and a really nice man advised that there was a mistake between Sony and themselves and they had not released the Syringe Mission to UK customers. He went on to advise that they were not sure how this was going to be fixed but either a patch or new downloadable content should be available in the future.

    It does feel like I have spent £23:99 for an icon on my PS4 dashboard that says Season Pass under Far Cry 4 add ons without actually seeing any content.

    This was the mailshot I received today. Not sure why they are still pushing it if they know there is a fault????

    And to rub salt in the wounds, when checking back on the PS Store I now see an entry for the Syringe Mission but you cannot do anything with it but read what you should be playing.

    I now see it on the UK store as well but can't action it in anyway though. This is a fairly recent addition to the store as I haven't seen it before so maybe they are in the process of sorting it all out and it will drop in the next few days.......hopefully.

    well, "limited" edition... as the name says... its "limited" in the amount of content which comes with it
    Ok, joke aside. Yes, imho they resell all preorder content later via season pass, plus new content as durgesh prison, online mod and yeti. This is on one side good (you get the complete(!) game even if you dont preorder at 3 or 4 stores to get a bit of exclusive stuff here and a bit of exclusive stuff there, but on the other hand this is really bad.... because you are literally forced to buy the dlcs to get all of the game and not just 95 %.... Nobody likes to buy DLCs, i think most people do it because there is no other choice to get the complete game (or they go without it). Because i liked Far Cry 4 at all, i wanted to get around all that preorder exclusivity bs and get ALL with the season pass, but at once....
    People who have a potent PC, running the pc version, atleast can kinda "defend" themselves against all this schitt, by using certain "unlockers" and bam, no more season pass bs....
    But we console owners have a bad stand.... we are at the mercy of the publisher whether he will release the content or not, and i still dont get what on earth is so hard for sony/ubisoft to fix this store problems ?

    Update: Hmm, seems some people in EU store can already access the PS4 version of the Syringe Mission, because there are 9 ratings existing atm, seems they are counted europe-wide.... because they are the same in uk and german store. And in german PSN store there an addon link under PS4 appeared as well....
    In UK store there even is a link for the PS3 version of this Addon too, from the main game, but even this is missing in german store....

    well, i hope so... apparently some european people were already able to download the syringe, both in PS4 and PS3.... or sony is putting up fake ratings Cant explain where the ratings come from else... german store is also lacking PS3 digital regular version, just the expensive gold edition is there (and in all other european stores there are links from that regular version to the syringe addon, i looked in UK and french store...)

    same issue here on PS-store BE

    Hi guys,

    I've got the same issue here on my PS4 in the PS-store of Belgium
    no syringe mission unlocking even after completing the game at 100%
    tried to re-install the game, reset the ps4 licenses and even restarted the game from scratch --> yet no luck

    I've created a ticket on 20/12, so far not a single reply on that...
    Tried even to call helpdesk, after 10 times calling I still wasn't able to get someone on the phone. (I wonder if there is actually someone on that calldesk)
    on twitter they are also ignoring my tweets calling out for help...

    at the psn helpdesk i've got the same message that it is an ubisoft issue,so I should contact them. (quite difficult if they ignore you ....)

    getting really frustrated on this.... and you need to know that initially I wasn't planning on buying the season pass !!!!

    well, what a disgusting way to treat paying(!) customers.... being ignored and passed around between 2 parties which claim its the others fault and no one getting up from the Playstation (lol) and actually FIXING something...its clearly a region problem.... in the stupid store.... why does it work in the US Store then ? I really hope they get it sorted in the next days.... support is useless, they dont know anything whats going on, just going over predefined checklists and throwing out canned replies mostly or none at all... and worst thing is, this surely could be fixed in 10 minutes by somebody with knowledge and access, like a sony admin for example. Why cant we contact them directly ? Nooooo... we just have to fight against incompetence.... I feel my 30 Euros are wasted.... plus all the unpleasant bugs which also nobody from the devs cares about (crafting, coop, saving, crashes... you name it)
    Wish i never purchased this empty season pass or that pile of bugs called FC4 at all

    SOLVED: Syringe Mission (PS3)

    Hi,

    just the miracle happened ! Got the syringe Mission for PS3 !!! I had to access it from inside the game, there in the main menu is a button "Playstation Store" (on PS3 you have to push Square) which opens up an oldish looking interface to the PSN Store (like it looked some years ago) and there next to the season pass suddenly the Syringe Mission Icon appeared !!! Dunno exactly what triggered it though.... yesterday i just redeemed the Hurk limited edition code and the keys to kyrat, maybe that triggered it or the sony store entry is working (though not from browser or via the "new" interface (on PS3)
    Downloaded and activated successfully, a 100 kb file. And after loading my save game i got a notification in the top left corner about Hurk first, then about the Syringe... YAY !!!

    Hi All!
    Today, I just got and played the mission Syringe on PS4. From the main game screen I used square to access Playstation store and it was there to download it (I am in Nederlands). Starting the game a message appears that it is available in the map. The star is very close to Varshakot, not very impressive mission anyway in Hymalayas, just killing some enemies with arrows and shooting down 2 choppers and some grappling. The reason I write this message is that the star disappears after finishing the mission, therefore if someone wants to replay it, he needs to save his game data on a usb memory and later to copy them back to System Storage to play it again. Hope it helps.
