Today in short-but-important patch notes: Just Cause 3 version 1.021. Version 1.02, though it brought in a load of flashy fixes like "significantly improved loading times" and "optimizations to online stats", broke a few things, and the struggle to get Just Cause soaring as it should continues.
1.021 consists of just two unexciting but vital items:
- Improved Stability When Exiting To Desktop.
- Improved Memory Management.
The previous patch introduced a new bug that caused crashes when quitting. Sure that's close to the intended effect but I prefer coming to a smooth halt to wrapping my car around a tree, if you catch my meaning. This is now fixed, supposedly.
Memory issues have been addressed across a "wide range of systems", which is a big step considering how random Just Cause 3's faults appeared to be. Some rigs will feel this improvement more than others.
