Far Cry 4 Having Some Crash Problems On Dual Core CPUs

Several Reddit forum users reported that the Far Cry 4 is flat out refuse to work when it comes to running on dual-core computer without hyperthreading on board. Not that who use hyperthreading are in good news. According to reports, while the game does not load on PCs using hyperthreading, performance is not enough in order to generate a good experience.

Dual cores are outdated today. Just like people still using xp to game, get with the times.

BludoDaSmelly4190d ago

If i couldn't afford it i would only do console gaming. It's not like games have stopped just using dual core. It has been a while where it has been needed.

OculusRift4190d ago

Dude what are you talking about.. I have a dual core i3 with 4 threads and I have yet to run into an issue running a game..

BludoDaSmelly4190d ago

I'm saying over the past years games have been requiring quad core. I know dual cores will work but it's not recommended.

OculusRift4190d ago

Most games barely use four cores as it is. With the current CPU performance stagnation and only getting really getting better in power usage (been that way since like 2010).. Unless there's a Huge bump in power and demands in gaming, I'll be just fine for a while.

Father__Merrin4190d ago

That's PC gaming for you, always upgrading lol

I had to ditch my fx 4100 for a 4300 runs much better GPS

BludoDaSmelly4190d ago

It is but it's been like that since it's inception.

windblowsagain4190d ago

Dual core isn't enough any more.

I did have one.

I'm using a I5 2500K and that is good enough, for how long I don't know.

"Dual cores are not enough,get with the times"

Todays dual core are faster then the consoles's cpu lawl.

ncc-0174190d ago

My budget gaming rig uses a Pentium Dual Core (the new Haswell ones not the old Pentiums) and I've never run into a problem running any game. I haven't played Far Cry 4 yet so I hope they fix the problem soon.

late but still a good move, oobi

InUrFoxHole379d ago

Seriously, it's great to see devs add things to older games.

OhReginald380d ago

Sony....you're really letting ubisoft out of all all companies to out class you??? Give us the bloondborne 60 fps patch....ffs

dantesparda380d ago

I second this (Bloodborne 60fps) plus damn, Ubisoft, you're doing great but now the last thing I want youi to do is mae Far Cry Primal 60fps and AC Unity

Profchaos379d ago

Everytime someone asks for a bloodborne patch it gets delayed 1 day.

ETA next century

I_am_Batman379d ago

They know it's gonna cost them sales of the inevitable Remake that'll probably come around the PS6 launch.

raWfodog380d ago

Good news for when, or If, I ever play it. It’s waaay down on my backlog list lol.

P_Bomb380d ago

I like these 60fps patches. Hoping they’ll do Ghost Recon Wildlands someday.

Yi-Long380d ago

Kudos to Ubisoft for once again going back to older titles and then offering a nice upgrade for free. I know the company gets a lot of criticism, in quite a few cases understandable and justified, but in this area of contintued post-launch support for their SP games, they deserve some credit.

Ubisoft Removes Nudity in Silent Far Cry 4 Update (New Info: Changes Reverted)

Update: Ubisoft has acknowledged that the Japanese version of the game, which includes regional censorship, was mistakenly released globally. The company says it has reverted these changes in the game's worldwide branch.

Ubisoft has quietly removed nudity from Far Cry 4 in a recent update, sparking speculation about Tencent’s growing influence on the publisher.

You can murder, mame, and viciously attack people, but anything that deals with showing a body in a natural state whether for titillation or narrative, is some truly terrible thing. We are so weird with our puritan thought process. Feed our bloodlust and fuel our enjoyment for entertainment of simulating acts of harm and murder, but god forbid you see digitized TnA. It will never make sense to me.

Rebel_Scum404d ago

tbh even if they did remove it, it doesnt matter. I dont even remember when there was nudity in the game. If it was there it was so inconsequential.

B5R404d ago

Agreed. It absolutely makes no sense

Also, even though Ubisoft reverted the changes that removed nudity, there's the bigger issue of developers being able to make large changes to the game you paid for whenever they want.

Stellar Blade comes to mind. This is why buying physical is the way to go.

Played and enjoyed Far Cry, Far Cry 3 and 4 campaigns .

-Foxtrot791d ago

4 wasn’t so bad

Pagan Min was pretty entertaining

Skuletor791d ago

Yeah, 4 was good, was hard choosing which Golden Dawn member to side with, when they were both pieces of sh!t.
I've beaten all the main entries except 2 and 6, ended up uninstalling 6 to download something else instead.

Profchaos791d ago

I'd love a far cry pack with the original PC game (not the half assed port on ps360) instincts, predator even a port of far cry 2 to modern consoles back when these games had their own identity and weren't far cry 3 cut and pastel

Demetrius791d ago

Still one of my most favorite franchises along with assassins creed

banger88791d ago (Edited 791d ago )

Same here, I don't know why these games get so much hate. I've thoroughly enjoyed every single one of them, with only a couple of exceptions. I wish they'd hurry up and announce Far Cry 7. The only thing I'm concerned about is the rumoured time limit.
