    @ superbiscot...

    Funny, and what exactly do you call what you just did?

    All of my request have been and always will be about helping the gameplay of the game and never about accessorizing the character. Then again, I forgot who the game is being cater for and social media the way it is, we can't seem to leave the fashion show out of anything now a days.

    Yes, that is my personal opinion and I soon do away with all of it but it seems that if we want to play a shooter we have to become fashionistas as well.

    Where do we draw the line? what is next... beautiful flower arrangements in front of all the houses and window sills so the ghosts can feel welcome?LOL

    Well... since this is an open world shooter with safehouses/bases dotted around the map, get ready for demands to let the players add flowers and really cool decals and HEADS ON PIKES to the outside of the bases Lol.

    Why aren't people as concerned with getting a deep, authentic and atmospheric shooter that makes you feel the intensity of being part of a small team of operatives on an adventure in a nonpermissive, disruptive environment, as they are with getting pink skins for their level 9000 12000000 DPS peashooter and customizing their character to look like a elvish knight along with buying a DLC pack to clad said elf in Assassins' Creed- cameo attire? Wasted potential is all it's gonna be if that's what happens.

    Turn that question around. Why are you so concerned if the key elements that make the game Ghost Recon are there? Of course we're concerned about a deep and authentic experience with atmosphere, tension and immersion. These two things aren't mutually exclusive if we can customise for ourselves.

    Customising your face, goofing around on dirt bikes on easy settings, turning on the UI to light up the enemy camp like a Christmas tree aren't things that will concern me as I will have that turned off. And really, you're still referencing the Division DPS system?

    Let's not forget either that GR also has a sense of humour in its DNA, as much to break tension and give comic relief as any serious gameplay variant. The original had massive heads or paper thin bodies you could turn on, along with making the soldiers sound like chickens. GR2 had the pink bunny suits and pirate gear you could wear and nothing built a community and got people talking and laughing quite like those pink bunny ears sticking out above the trenches on Bunkers. We'd often end a tense night with tempers running thin and trash talking thick, by turning on the fun and chilling out for those last 20 minutes.
