PS3 digital version currently suffering with some corruption issues while Ubisoft is working on a patch for it. Until it arrives, only thing that can be done as a quick fix is to delete and redownload the game again.

Quote:
Some owners of the digital copy of Far Cry 4 for PS3 were stopped by a corrupted data message that wouldn’t allow them to continue the game. Ubisoft originally hinted that previous save data from Far Cry 3 or Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon may have been causing the issue, but an official fix has been added to the fully updated version of the digital copy.

Now users have to delete the current version of Far Cry 4 from their consoles – every last bit of data – and reinstall via digital download. PS3 players may have to start over, but the good news is that previous Far Cry 3 and Blood Dragon data are completely safe.

PS3 owners who have a physical copy of the game should not be affected. Ubisoft said it found only owners of the digital version were affected by the data corruption bug.
PC version also has issues but not as severe as the PS3 version.

Far Cry 4 PC version players discovered that connected external USB devices were causing the game to hang and crash to a completely black screen. Once other external USB devices were removed, the game worked without issue. Other users have reported closing applications that handle USB device controllers also fix the hanging crash.

In another case of people with pirated copies being exposed really easily, Ubisoft states they know exactly who has played with a pirated copy due to a very specific complaint about a feature not being available in pirated copies.

Quote:
In a clever move by Ubisoft, Far Cry 4 pirates have made themselves known publicly by complaining on social media. Whether intentional or not, the field of view scroller was left out of the retail build, only to be patched in on day one. So when users took to Twitter to complain about the option, game director Alex Hutchinson made it clear to PC players that “if you're online complaining about the lack of FOV control ... You pirated the game.”
