    Add DLC weapons into base game/other PVE replay value ideas

    [GAME]
    Im sure im not the only one who was disappointed by not being able to bring the few new weapons that came in NR and FG into the base/vanilla game. It would add a lot of replay value to PVE. Also, why havent you introduced Los Extranjeros into all of Bolivia? The enemy variation in FG was perfect. Playing the vanilla game is getting stale and a more varied set of enemies would really spice things up I feel.
    I saw one post mention a "Game +" mode. Why not add different Cartel archetypes, like Los Extranjeros or add them? The tier system is a grind to get the rewards but like the vanilla game its lost its fun because its the same ol same ol.

    [CLOTHING/CONCEALABLE WEAPONS]
    I dont know about every other player but all my custom loadout slots are full also. It would be nice to have a few more with all the clothing options we currently have available to us. Can we please have ways to conceal weapons? Not large rifles of course. Maybe a new backpack or coat that would allow us players to conceal SMGs, folded stock, and pistols. I have a couple load outs with civilian clothing but its just breaks the immersion to have to walk around with weapons on your back if youre trying to be inconspicuous.
    The player already reaches back to grab a weapon so why not add the simple sound of a zipper while holstering/unholstering smgs and folded stock rifles. Also what would be cooler than being able to draw a pistol from your waist band? One animation guys for some great immersive gun play.
    Having a selectable backpack to add to a primary weapon slot would also let you dictate what side you wanted to draw and holster your weapon from. It could also act as a requirement to have a concealed weapon letting the player use only one primary and a sidearm.

    [CHALLENGE REWARDS/STORE]
    So recently youve had us battle predator. I loved it. The rewards were cool from completing the challenge and I also bought the pack from the store because it had great gear and wrist blades that work!!!!! That single ability is better than the entirety of Narco Road, sorry I dont care at all for that DLC. All of this is great but it would have been amazing to have to have its shoulder cannon as a weapon and have the helmet grant a passive ability. The shoulder cannon could take the place of our pistols and the helmet could have granted his cloaking with a keystroke/button push. It seems the studio went to great lengths to bring us this fantastic challenge with great rewards, yet it felt like more should have been done. The shoulder cannon and active camo would have added so much life to the game, for me at least.
    Having super natural/epic challenges should have rewards that fit. El Tio for example was a cool challenge. It had a cult doing some wicked cult things. Why not add a special weapon or passive ability from wearing El Tio mask???
    I can hear people screaming its not ghost recon!!! OK but, when was this game ever? I just fought predator. I love playing this game and want more reasons to play it. We've come along this far, lets keep going.


    All of this is just the rantings of a player who really enjoys the PVE and wants it to have more longevity.
    Thanks.

    Thanks very much for letting us know what you'd like to see, N3ngrana! In regards to the topic you mentioned in your thread title, there are no plans to add NR/FG weapons to the main game. No additional New Game Plus mode is planned right now either. Obviously Tier One mode is in-game, though.

    I'll let the team know about your suggestion for more inconspicuous weapons and additional animations. Thank you!

    Sorry, but if the weapons from NR/FG for whatever reason aren't allowed to be in main campaign, then why is the Crossbow free for PvP and why is the M16 from Predator Pack also free for PvP?

    Awesome! Thanks for the reply. Its great to see you guys taking time to address this stuff. I know a lot of people like to role play in GRW so all that would help and add longevity to PVE.
    Thanks again!

    A lot of these ideas have been brought up before and still are, like the "new game +" mode.

    Believe me, there are plenty of us long-time GRW players who would love to see things added like NG+ to help add replayability to the core game. Replayability is good for both the fans and for Ubi. .....more replay equals more opportunities for them to make money on the Uplay store.

    Unfortunately, I believe that any future additions to PvE will be in the form of short-lived challenges, divorced DLC (like NR and FG) or similar. Heck, I wouldn't even mind paying for something as long as it benefits (adds replayability) to the core game.

    They built this huge, open world. They should really take advantage of it.

    I didn't like the route they took with the Tier One addition but it is a good example of what I'm talking about. It was integrated into the core game (missions, weapons and the entire game world). Something like that would be great and something I would even pay for if done in the spirit of the original design / vision this time. ....although I would have to say, NG+ would be relatively simple to implement by comparison and it is beyond me why they would be so quick to shoot it down as a viable option.

    Sorry to burst your bubbles, N3ngrana, but they've been responding like this for months: barely any changes follow in the following patches.

    Why they cant do procedural generated missions similar to the side ops? The map is so empty after done with all side ops. Assassins creed origins has great random missions also every open World titles from ubisoft are filled with These stuff but ghost recon wildlands? Why they dont get it that we want more for campaign? Like in the division the Wall tables where you can make random places seach and destroy. Why not?? Pvp is ok but the core of the game is the Main campaign. Also the apcs dont shoot in Main campaign but in Fallen ghosts they can... What? Why not in Main campaign? It is disappointing. In the safehouses they could implement a Laptop to get some random generated side missions to earn ressources. The requirement to use the Laptop for random missions in Safe zones is to play in Tier Mode. That would be awesome. They can do it but they even dont want to This is sad. So many Potential in this game

    Its alright i guess. I just dont understand it. They have all these extra resources from FG, like all the Los Extranjeros enemy archetypes, and I cant comprehend why they cant/wont add them to the base game so it has more replay value. Reskin them as cartel or unidad. It seems a waste to me.
    Sure I can play FG, but the star of this game is its GIANT open world. Limiting that experience from DLC I bought seems like they took two steps backwards. If it were a free DLC then I could see the smaller play area, however I PAID for a smaller area to play in??? what gives UBI?????
