As always, the PC platform is getting Arma Reforger updates a day earlier before they arrive on the Xbox platform. On Wednesday, the developer of Arma Reforger, Bohemia Interactive, deployed a new update titled 0.9.5.101, dealing with some known issues that could contribute to a much better and smoother gameplay experience.
Previously, Arma Reforger players were frustrated due to connection issues preventing them from having an entire and entertaining game session, especially in Conflict mode. Basically said, not a single Conflict match was concluded without any disconnection, and Bohemia Interactive had to do something about it. Considering its Early Access status, this was expected, but seeing the number of fixes deployed over the past couple of weeks is baffling.
This further proves how Bohemia Interactive is mending its game, investing the workforce in getting rid of all game-breaking issues. If the development continues with this pace, we might see Arma 4 somewhat earlier than later. Without further ado, below, you can find all of the changes addressed with the latest Arma Reforger 0.9.5.101 patch.
