Far Cry 3’s release is just around the corner: December 4th for North American players, tomorrow for European and today for our Australian friends.

Along with the PC release comes a day-one patch, according to Ubisoft, which will look at a number of multiplayer, co-op, map editor and single player updates.

Check out the notes below and read up on Ubisoft’s tutorial on how to download the patch.

MULTIPLAYER

General

  • Improved overall Multiplayer stability and performance.
  • Added SHOW TOP, SHOW YOU, PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN options in Leaderboards.
  • Fix the voice chat issue that would mute players by default.
  • Lobby chat can now be accessed when a controller is connected.

Co-op

  • Fixed graphical issues on loading screen hints.
  • Fixed the issue that would prevent maps from being displayed or randomized the first time a user enters Public Co-op.
  • Health regeneration option no longer has inverted functionality.
  • “Flare gun” kills are no longer considered as Assist kills.

  • Fixed ground texture resolution.
  • Grass surrounding fire spawns no longer remain red on Firestorm maps.
