[SUGGESTION][CUSTOMIZATION]It has been asked for ever since beta.
First of all I would like to congratulate Ubisoft, this game is and has been one of my favorite games of this generation, I just love the atmosphere of the game. However, there has been a couple features frequently asked for in this relatively small fan community of official forums and every time the official response has been "we have told the team about it and will tell if anything happens" followed by complete silence until someone asks again. This is quite odd because none of these features would require modeling new assets or mechanics. As I have seen on previous topics, there are certain users who are quick to point out that one of these requests can be worked around by playing with other people, but I play this game exclusively single player. On my Uplay stats I have 0 hours, 0 minutes on total Co-op playtime, and I intend to keep it that way.
I am in no way bored of this game or planning to stop playing, but I would get easily 100 hours more playtime from this game with these features which should be very familiar by now:
New game plus
Complete the story missions and regions again with your maxed out Ghost. Even Far Cry 3 had a option to reset all outposts after completion, and this would be literally no effort at all for the team. It wouldn't take more than couple of hours to implement and test, but would add countless hours of playtime for core fans.
Ability to unequip primary weapons and/or backpack
Again, a simple on/off toggle for the textures that would be really easy to implement and would make core fans happy. This was requested all the way back during beta and it is just mind boggling this has not been implemented. Hell, if you are afraid that casual fans get scared of extra challenge make it a hidden feature.
Ability to choose your squad's outfit and loadout
I don't know or care about the names of my squad, but the dude with the sniper rifle fires full auto with his rifle during battles. Since you seemingly don't care about firing patterns at all why does it matter if players get to choose which weapon this guy fires full auto? I play this game exclusively as single player and just wan't my squad to have matching outfits and weapons I choose for them. Again, this was requested all the way back in beta and this too is a feature that would use existing assets and wouldn't require excessive work and time to implement. Yet again, complete silence.
I don't even care about getting more clothes or weapons, these three things have been requested multiple times ever since beta by multiple users. There is clearly a sizable section of core fans who go through the trouble to register for your official forums who want these features. There is literally no plausible explanation why these are not available.For god's sake, give us some fan service here please.
