Far Cry 4 released recently, and came with a day one patch to fix up a few things - most notably adding some Field-Of-Vision/FOV controls to the options menu. At least, it will have done for any owner of a legitimate copy of the game that was connected to the Internet.
This seems to have caught a good few people who managed to download copies online before launch out, as their copies would not have had the patch and some took to the social networks like Reddit and Twitter to complain about what they perceived to be an error on Ubisoft's part. Some even complaining to Ubisoft's official accounts themselves. Oops.
PC players! If you're online complaining about the lack of FOV control ... You pirated the game.

As for the launch itself, as of right now Far Cry 4 seems to be faring better than its older brother, Assassin's Creed: Unity, at least on the initial reception front. Having a game that seems to be mostly free of the obvious bugs that made news with AC:U helps. Three big errors have been popping up regularly though and another patch is already being worked upon to help fix those issues. They are crashes on the PC build due to peripherals, PS3 save problems for those with Far Cry 3 savefiles and an issue where some users have not received pre-order bonus items.
Doubtless illegal copies won't be getting automatically updated with this patch either.
