Hoewel Ubisoft op de releasedag al een grote patch voor Far Cry 4 uitbracht, ondervinden sommige spelers nog steeds problemen met de game. Zo wordt de pc-versie geteisterd door crashes en hebben sommige PlayStation 3-gamers last van corrupte data.
Ook hebben veel pre-orderaars hun beloofde DLC-code niet ontvangen. Ubisoft beschrijft deze problemen zelf op zijn website:
Ubisoft werkt hard aan een oplossing voor deze problemen. Tot slot: heb je last van ontbrekende FOV-instellingen in de pc-versie? Dan val je door de mand.PC crashes: Some players have been reporting problems loading the game that result in a crash that manifests as a black screen. We have been able to reproduce this internally. While we are just starting to investigate this, our initial findings suggest that this may be the result of the presence of certain peripherals that are causing conflicts.
PS3 corruption: We have seen reports from PS3 players that they are receiving a message reading “Game Data is corrupt. Please delete FC3 game data”. While the message suggests this would be limited to players who had also played Far Cry 3 on the same console, we are receiving similar reports from players who have not played FC3. If you are submitting reports about this issue, please clarify if you’ve played Far Cry 3 or Blood Dragon on the same console.
Pre-order code redemption: Players who pre-ordered the game were told that they would receive an email with a redemption code for the “Blood Ruby” bonus mission in advance of the game’s release. Some players have reported that they did not yet receive this email, and some players have reported that they did receive the email but it was missing a valid code.
