inXile Entertainment has pushed out a new patch for Wasteland 3 that resolves some issues in the game and fixes a serious problem that affected progression and saved data loss.

Patch 1.1.0, which is now live on PC will arrive on consoles soon, fixes various game-breaking issues that would “cause character and quest progression to be lost” in the post-apocalyptic RPG.

Also, if you've been plagued with loading screens getting stuck at 33%, the new patch sorts those out for you (but inXile notes that some loading screen issues may persist, even once you've updated to version 1.1.0).

There are a couple of balance changes arriving in-game with the new patch; most notably, Polly and the Cyborg Chickens are getting buffed.

The developer insists Wasteland 3 players that want to play co-op ought to “ensure their client versions match as mismatched clients can cause unforeseen issues”.

So bear that in mind if you're playing with your mates.

You can check out the full patch notes for version 1.1.0 below.
