Then according to a BI Dev I spoke to this should fix the issue.

It appears to be related to the memory allocator specified in the launch options.

Anyone using the "-malloc=tbbmalloc" will likely be effected. You will need to replace this with "-malloc=tbb4malloc_bi" and revert back to the default dll.

If you do no have a memory allocator specified and are experiencing this issue, then add "-malloc=tbb4malloc_bi" to yoour launch options in steam for Arma 3.

Just a refresher on how to find them;

Right click ARMA 3 in your steam library > select Properties > On the General tab click 'Set Launch Options' 

Add or Amend with the "-malloc=tbb4malloc_bi" command as required.

Hope this helps
