    Skip Intro option?

    So, the game keeps crashing ever 10-30min at random, no real pattern to it. Watched the damn intro videos some 7-8 times now. Please give us the option to disable or skip them.

    have you tried lowering your graphics to see if that resolves the issue?

    Lowering settings would stop the game from crashing all the time? how does that even make sense... Or did you mean that lowering settings would make the game skip intro videos?... Because that's the topic of this thread. I've seen them plenty of times, but I don't see a way of skipping them.

    I've got no real clue, but maybe it has to do with you running out of graphics memory? So lowering the settings would allow there to be more memory in case of spike in memory need. As for skipping intro screens, if this is PC version (which I'm assuming it is), maybe there's a command line you can add to the launcher to skip splash screens and/or intros?

    it's possible that lowering the graphics will give your GPU a bit more room to breathe, even during cinematics. So just try and let us know. You can also contact support for more in depth info

    I guess I explained myself badly, seeing as everyone is misunderstanding. The crashes has nothing to do with intro videos, I was asking if there was a way of skipping them, unrelated to the fact that the game keep crashing on a regular basis, but all crashes so far happened ingame, not in intro videos... I'm unsure how many other ways I can explain it.

    Ignore the whole "your game is crashing for no reason" and just focus on the "Could someone please tell me how to skip intro videos?"

    the option for that should be displayed in the lower right corner during cinematics, for instance holding B on a controller

    I belive he wants to skip the INTRO movies when you start the game. The UBI logo, the Ivory Tower logo etc ... they can't be skipped which is -1 point to the game right there

    In fairness, those are usually in place while the game is actually loading rather than having a blank screen. Often its possible to identify those files in the games assets and delete them to remove them but it is game specific and doesn't always work.
