Issues fixed

|
Game crashes without message after 20-30min

- Below are possible solutions to an error marked with offset 00422c5c (DX11) or 006be09c (DX9) in Windows Event Viewer.
Set firewall rules[9][10] |
---|
|
Launch the game as administrator[11] |
---|
Open Ubisoft Connect and switch it to Offline mode[12] |
---|
|
Crashes instantly at start up
Instructions[citation needed] |
---|
|
Can't connect to other players when purchased from different distribution platforms
Install patch[citation needed] |
---|
|
Can't switch to DirectX 9 mode
Instructions[citation needed] |
---|
|
Offline save games no longer working
Instructions[13] |
---|
|
Start the game in online mode[14] |
---|
Cannot connect with a friend in lobby
Set firewall rules[15] |
---|
If you already played the game before, it can occur that prompt from Windows firewall to "allow access" to the game doesn't show up when the game is launched, while the game is still not added to the firewall exception list. In consequence, it will prevent the game from joining lobbies if the game is not added to firewall exceptions. |
Disable all network adapters beside your internet connection[16] |
---|
Above solution can fix connection problems and also cause the system to show firewall "allow access" alert if you didn't set the firewall rule manually already.
|
High frame rate issues
- The physics and logic of the game are linked to 60 FPS, so playing at high fps can cause problems.
Limit the Framerate to 60FPS[citation needed] |

- Disabling other network adapters like Hamachi and Radmin VPN caused the OS to show firewall alert, which didn't happen immediately after game launch as normally supposed to. Previously I played the game on coop few years ago on the same system, and apparently the firewall rule for the game has had been deleted
