The game refuses to start and I end up with the Game Crashed! message after I try to start it from both Epi Games and the Ubiconnect launcher. I have seen this same issue posted elsewhere in this community and also elsewhere (and yes I have gone through all the motions - verifying files, run as administrator etc). Most of the other forums (including this) have simply given up and 'hope' for the problem to be fixed on its own in the form of some miracle 'update' or patch that will happen.
I very seldom make any post in any public forum as I am not really complaining type (and also run the risk of this being buried under other posts) - but I feel a little silly now after purchasing the game and downloading it and now just not able to play and am supposed to be okay with it.
This post is simply a shout out to any one who knows what I am talking about or can just help out because I really think there are a few of us. Any input is appreciated.
Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.

I have the same problem.
It worked previously and I've played at least 55% of completion.
Just happened this weekend out of nowhere.
@defencerx me too - everything was working fine and then suddenly one day it didn't - I tried everything suggested and nothing worked:
It sometimes randomly starts (only at off-peak times) which gives me the impression that it has nothing to do with my machine and is either a security issue (someone on my ISP is also playing and/or causing trouble) or their servers are somehow overloaded.
@dr_aaagh @DefencerX Thank you for responding. well at least you were lucky enough to play it once. I just bought the game last week and am just sitting with it installed on my system wondering I should do now. I keep pressing Play time to time in the hope that it works sometime.
@hbahsir
I finally got it running!
Setting the compatibility mode of C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\UbisoftGameLauncher.exe to windows 8 worked for me (and unchecking the 'run as administrator')
It seems to start really slowly compared to before but at least it eventually starts
I hope this helps
Does any one have any updates on if they found a way?
