Working AMD Crossfire :)
Firstly I make no promises this will work for everyone...I use 2 R7 260x GPU's...Something I discovered with AMD Crossfire and its drivers...AMD is a joke when it comes to properly supporting Crossfire in its new drivers. With a massive amount of driver testing I found that the only AMD drivers to work 100% crossfire with my cards was to use AMD Software version 17.1.1
Anything newer and you will get graphical glitches and massive amounts of flickering in all your games(granted some scenarios may work better than others). So for this game specifically you need driver version 17.1.1 as well as setting crossfire to AFR Compatible Mode...everything on my setup is working with beautiful scaling(almost double framerates). Everyone who gets flickering in there games using crossfire is directly related to the driver version. AMD changed something in the newer drivers which borks crossfire. Good Luck...report back here if you try this and it works. I assume this works best with older cards...newer cards with newer driver versions prob work better but this has been my experience with months of testing different configurations under almost every possible scenario. I have yet to experience any graphical glitches or flickering using this setup in this game.

P.S. Sometimes when loading the game Crossfire does not activate properly, u can tell by the mouse flickering...just go into windowed mode then back into fullscreen, or enable/disable vsync. The game will reload and should fix the problem. Its usually rare but can happen in some games. I also discovered that Crossfire works in Fake Fullscreen for me in this game, not sure why but I think it has something to do with how they coded the engine to handle Fake Fullscreen, Good Luck.
