    Character Customization

    There's a video on Youtube talking about Character Customization in Wildlands

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyC4uK-8yQo

    I agree with the Youtuber, I think you should have the option to customize your entire team: looks, gear and weapons. And when your friends drop in, they should have the option to choose which character of their they would use in that session.

    The aspect of your customized AI teammates disappearing and your Co-Op friends customized characters appearing could be dealing but only allowing drop ins and outs between missions. So, this would be explained in-game like if your AI teammates would be on the bench for that particular assignment and other Ghost operatives would drop in to help.

    Yeah, I had this very same conversation with IceyCat actually at the Ubisoft Lounge. I'm in agreement with him.

    Now I will agree more is definitely better, and I think it would be beyond super cool to be able to adjust what all 4 members look like, it's not the most important thing in the game. The moment it starts taking away from the important things; guns, mechanics, gameplay, and all that is the time where it needs to stop. That becomes a case where I would prefer to play as a fixed character to play a fuller, richer experience. Though if we can keep a full character creation as well as a rich, full length experience I say go for it, and make the game even better.

    But customize your AI team loadout, for instance would increase your experience in the core of the game that is the tactical military operation. It was one of things that lacked in GRFS. My example: I like to play as a heavy machine gunner. I want to be the heavy machine gunner on my team. So I would customized the loadout of my teammates so one of them could be a sniper and the other two, assault riflemen. In GRFS you couldn't do that. I think this kind of customization is important.

    The looks would enrich the experience, and increase immersion, that is important too, but I agree, not important as other things. Let's see how Ubisoft will prioritize in this game.

    I really want to be able to adjust the load outs of my AI, even if it means picking from presets, but full customisation even better.

    This is true. I did always find it a little off in FS that I always had to snipers, 1 assault rifle and one SMG. It would be nice to change but I could live with it if they didn't have it.

    Personally I'd like to have full customization over my AI squad, in both aesthetics (gender, appearance, clothing, etc.) and weapon loadouts.

    I'd like to set up my team according to certain roles (myself as a grenadier, a rifleman, an automatic rifleman, and a designated marksman), and I'd also like to coordinate our attire (so I'm not in full camo while everyone else is wearing t-shirts).

    Really hope ballistic helmets make an appearance. running a Ops Core or Crye helmet would be awesome.

    Especially if I can unlock the helmet by killing 500 humans or by buying a DLC consisting of neon pink camo Ops Core helmets. That'd be great.
