Patch seems to be on the way...

[urfisch]

German UBI moderator stated, they got this topic "onscreen", but he cannot reveal more infos on that, so far...

This might mean, the patch is in progress.

[Ablemaster]

Hope so mate, wouldnt be a moment too soon, any improvement wouldnt do ubi any harm at all, we live in hope.

Hopefully it will be one step closer to a better sim.

[Crécy]

Finally. Hope they fix that hydrophone bug..

[molotof]

The patch is already out, just run the game updater in "gamefolder"\support\GameUpdater\gu.exe
But for Steam user (like me) we have to wait a bit and spam the support team for a date

Well hopefully thats the reason i can't log in right now.

3 times now i tried to log in and the game becomes unrespsonsize at the main menu while the "Syncrhonizing Saves" message is shown. It's trying to sync, but it just freezes.

The game seems to hang, menu music is looping at the very beginning, and I have to CTRL+ALT+DEL to kill it.

First time i experienced this one.

[Ragtag]

Works just fine for me.

[gutted]

I was afraid of that.

[java`s revenge]

I hope that sh5 doesn`t autoupdate because i have mods installed.

[gutted]

Welp, it seems im shipwrecked.

After 6 tries, the game just will not get past the "Syncing Save Games" message upon entering the main menu. The 1st five seconds of the menu music is just on a constant loop. It never completes the "Sync" and i have to kill the process to get out of it. I was just playing the game. Exited, Took a break, and then come back and POOF!

For some strange reason I feel happy that I cancelled my pre-order...

That seems to be the problem with this auto update.
Ubisoft know SH5 will depend on mods yet they need to give us a definate date when the autoupdate will happen so that we can uninstall mods.
The jobsworth idiot that came up with this idea should be taken somwhere and buried.
It reminds of the time when I was in the army and officers behind desks would come up with stupid mission orders to justify their existence. I can remember our platoon getting these orders and laughing as we all knew they came from someone who had never been on the ground.

Solved my problem.

I deleted the temporary garbage in:
C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\Storage\


Game loads up fine now. Strange.

Start the game and as soon as you see the ubilauncher hit the small button second from the right on the top and disable online save and exit. Rename or backup and del "C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\storage". That should work for the sync issue. At least did for me.

PS: Damn im to slow :/

Just remember that if you turn it off, NEVER turn it on again. It will overwrite/delete your current savegames.
