Recently started playing AC:IV on PC and have been having troubles with Uplay Whenever I boot up the game, I have to skip the part where it logs into Ubisoft servers before it all. Now that I am in Sequence 4, where the Uplay access is required for the Fleet introduction, my game goes to the background of the menu and nothing appears in the foreground. Is it often that the servers are inactive, or down entirely? And are there any other parts of the single-player game that are required to be connected to the servers?
