Ubisoft signale par le biais de ses forums que le patch 1.01 pour la version PC de Far Cry 2 vient de sortir. Ce dernier se concentre essentiellement sur le mode multijoueurs du titre, mais pas uniquement puisqu'il corrige aussi quelques problèmes mineurs sur le mode solo et l'éditeur de cartes fourni avec le titre. Notez que le jeu supporte désormais le 5.1 et que les changements de touche que vous faits pour le solo seront aussi effectifs dans le multi.

Le jeu devrait se mettre à jour automatiquement, mais si vous préférez la manière manuelle, la rustine peut se télécharger sur The Patchs Scrolls (d'autres miroirs devrait apparaître bientôt) pour 26 Mo.
