Far Cry

[Rleemiller]

Hi I bought Far Cry 3 through steam and It didn't work. I got a refund. I would like to find out if I was to buy Far Cry 4 and It doesn't work will I get a refund again. I cant find any way to talk to someone at Steam.

Sorry to hear about your injury. Hope you are getting along as well as can be.

If you don't have the exceptions that I mentioned above, for Avast, that is problem and suspect number one, but there can be others also.

Make the exceptions, then verify game files to maybe replace missing or corrupted files.

You have to correct the conflict first, then verify the game files after.

I can turn my AV off when I install and play games. I was reading that Far Cry 3 had issues with Windows 10 not as many with Far Cry 4

That can be possible for some games. Compatability mode may work better for older operating systems, for some games that is. You can try that also.

Turning off the parent antivirus program is not always good enough. That parent may have child processes that still run and maybe conflict. There are cases. Avast should be fine if you make the exceptions.

If you didn't, try installing Uplay from the Ubisoft site. Steam installs an old version. Probably has nothing to do with your problem, but it's known to cause issues.

Hey one more thing Giving One if you dont mind with help. When I was trying to install uplay b4 idk if i started a uplay accnt. Will it be ok if I make a completely new uplay accnt name

I have to apologize, concerning UPlay. I am not sure as I don't use that. I would "assume" you can have as many accounts as you want, but the game won't be on those other accounts if they are on a different account.

But don't take my word for it. You may need to ask on their forums or someone else here may be able to answer that. Sorry about that.

EDIT...pretty sure you would have had to make a UPlay account. That is mandatory for some/most/all Ubisoft games as far as I know.
