The publisher has updated its game with new single and multiplayer adjustments based on fan feedback.
Ubisoft has released a new patch for Far Cry 3 that introduces a number of new features requested by players on both single player and multiplayer modes. The patch is now live for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Windows PC. Based on community feedback gathered by the Far Cry 3 team, the features added or tweaked by this patch are an on-going effort to respond to players and give them more reasons to re-visit Rook Islands, to improve their skills with tougher challenges, and to re-discover the Far Cry 3 world.
These new elements include:
Single Player:
Outposts reset: after the end of the game, players can choose to reset the liberated outposts to face the challenge to take them over again.
A new difficulty setting: Players who have completed the campaign can restart the adventure on Master difficulty, with more challenging enemies and dangerous wildlife.
New HUD/UK settings: allowing most on-screen information can be toggled on/off in the settings.
Multiplayer:
Map Beta Test: Players who upload a new map can now publish it as a beta test to monitor how it is played and improve it before releasing to other players.
Maps by author: Players will be able to search all the maps created by an author.
Idle kick: The feature that kicks out idle players during a MP match is removed from custom and private matches.
The Skip map voting system has been improved with more visibility and time to cast the vote.
