Can we all please have an official update on these 3 issues that UBISOFT said they were investigating? The 3 issues were part of UBi's 1.4 patch release notes below.
They say these should be tackled in future patches. Will this be before or after skynet destroys mankind? thx.

PC Patch 1.4.0 is LIVE
11/24/2014 04:21 PM
We’re pleased to say that the newest update, PC Patch 1.4.0, includes fixes to two issues that were affecting users attempting to play Far Cry 4. The new patch should solve the problem causing users to encounter a black screen upon attempting to launch the game, as well as providing a remedy to those who saw a grey screen when reaching the end of an Outpost Master Mission. We expect this to provide a much smoother experience for our players.
Our efforts don’t stop here. We are investigating topics some players are experiencing including:
1) Mouse Acceleration
2) Key Bindings
3) Black Shadows on SLI
Those should be tackled in future patches.
If you have any other questions please contact Customer Support and we’ll give you another update on fixes as soon as possible.

Bwahahahahahahaha... Good One !!!Originally Posted by Bobaslaw Go to original post
Now, on the more serious note, StarWars Episode VII will probably be out before they fix this game!![]()
Thank you for the response. I appreciate it. Having some kind of response like this, even if there is not much related info, is better than having no response at all. BTW where is the place that such updates or announcements will be made?Originally Posted by xMiiSTY Go to original post
Yes, it does help. That is also why I asked where is the right forum that such updates will be made. Will you continue to make updates in this thread as they come in? I posted another topic regarding the ambiguity of both the general tech forum and this PC Discussion forum as it pertains to tech issues, including threads such as this.

What about the fact that Uplay doesn't automatically update to patch 1.04? Or actually... it does, now and then...
Let me explain:
downloaded the game (official UBI PC-Download), installed the game, started the game... but, what a surprise, the - now already world famous - black screen...
Asked for assistance (Italy, still waiting for a decent reply, but that's understandable, these poor guys are a "team" (what's in a name) of 3 people...), reply: try to check files, which I did, but it didn't change anything. So, by the time I had my next answer (another 3 days) from UBI-Italy, there was the also famous 1.04 patch. So, I was kind of excited to patch the game... But, big surprise again, and that's nice, because it's almost Christmas, Uplay refuses to update to the 1.04 patch (I guess Uplay doesn't work for Santa...)... So what to do other then to ask one of the 3 guys at UBI-Italy what to do...
So I waited, and waited... an waited some more, but no answer was coming my way... So I took things in my own hands and checked the files again... And boy o boy was I happy that, out of the blue, Uplay downloaded the magnificent (or so I thought) patch 1.04...
Noooot... Because when the game launched... There I was again, watching Black Snow...
But no panic, there's always UBI assistance... (there is, really, these guys must be exhausted reading our angry messages about UBI's problems, honor to them!!). So pretty quickly I got a response (later I found out it was simply a copy/paste message they sent to every complaint about the patch) Uninstall the game, and start over... Stupidly I did, and now we're back square -1, game installed, black screen, no update to patch 1.04, Uplay is on strike again...
Any suggestions from the world of gamers?
If I don't hear from anyone (which is most probable...) Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!
Oh I forgot: why doesn't UBI provide us with manual downloads for their patches?? Like they did for AC3 and AC Revelations?! That would save forums and assistance a lot of frustrations wouldn't it?
The only ray of hope I can give you YaMaN ... is that in my case, FC4 didn't like Belkin/Razor Software. I use a Nostromo n52te game pad. The game had no problem with the Nostromo plugged in ... it just didn't like the software installed on my system. I could leave the nostomo plugged in, but had to uninstall the software .. and no more black screen. This was prior to 1.4, after which .. the Belkin/Razor software finally got along together.
You might search for something on your system, some software that has something to do with a game pad, Joy Stick, some peripheral ... that's causing FC4 to be obstinate. I'll bet it'll be in that quest, that you'll find your answer. Good Luck man.
