Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Future Soldier – Major PC Update 1.4 Released


Ubisoft has finally released the highly anticipated ‘Update 1.4’ for the PC version of Ghost Recon: Future Soldier. This update comes with global improvements in FPS for all configurations, as well as fixes for several stability issues that occurred during map loading. Kudos to Ubisoft for at least putting some effort into fixing some of the major issues that were present in the PC version of the game. We strongly believe that the company should had delayed the game’s release date in order to offer what they had initially promised, but then again that’s just us.
Those interested can manually apply this update by downloading it from here.
According to Ubisoft, after installing this update, players will be unable to participate in online matches with players who have not updated. In addition, this update is currently an optional update but will become mandatory later this week. At that time, Uplay will require players to update their game client in order to play.
Here is the changelog for this update, as well as some known issues and workarounds:
