On the top 9 things "we" want in year 2. Nine? Really? You couldn't think of one more to make an even 10? One more like, oh I dunno, the biggest thing this game needs for replayabilty? C'mon man, NG+ should never be left out of any list of things "we" want in this game.

I haven't seen that particular video, but it does not surprise me about him requesting more realistic sniper mechanics. Many of his videos have been about weapons handling, and comparing various weapons, for things like accuracy and range. He has also done videos about making the game more realistic, by using personal choices versus game mechanics, like only changing loadouts at a safe house. So even though, I can imagine that his video may have more about turning the game more into a combat simulator, and changing how we can play the existing content, I doubt he is against adding new PVE content.
LOL, I find it odd Ubi is quick to post videos for PS4 players that don't even know how to pronounce their name. It's not pronounced Oobisoft, the name is taken from the word ubiquitous, which trust me, is not pronounced oobiquitous. It kinda makes it obvious PS4 players are Ubi's precious cash cows.
Secondly, while many of the suggestions in the video are good, many are not mentioned as they should be. For instance scope elevation adjustments are called MOA adjustments (Minute of Angle), and being able to adjust zoom as well is just as important, especially for long range shots. Having MOA without zoom, especially with the limited range scopes in this game, is kinda pointless. But that brings us back to things like draw distance and the over exaggerated bullet drop. All these things are part of the same problem, and need to be addressed as such.
While I agree Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 DOES have such necessary features, it's also more of a Sniper MilSIM specific type genre. Ubi don't really flesh out their games in such ways. Even to ask them to program squad AI to drive, can result in the type of problems you see in Far Cry 5, where they have many dysfunctional mishaps.
And as good as SGW3 is in some ways, it's also a broken mess, with horrible optimization, tons of freezing issues, and has a pretty badly written story, characters, and dialog. It's not the concept of all those that are bad, it's the execution. So while this guy has some good points and a fairly professional speaking voice, he seems very naive about what it would really take to properly implement some of what he's asking for.
Thank you for posting the video Ubi.
Here is my list.
NG+
White SB armored pickup and white camo small helicopter added to SB vehicle pack.
NG+
Unidad turreted off road buggy and turreted jeep added to Unidad vehicle pack.
NG+
Customizable weapons loadout for your AI team.
NG+
can my rugged armored pickup not crumble like a friggin aluminum can when a graze a damn bush? Vehicle damage is complete and utter nonsense in this game. That and driving physics need a serious overhaul.
And finally, NEW GAME PLUS!
EDIT: Crap how could I forget. The vehicle spawning system is atrocious.
Funny, Youtube just suggested his video and I watched a couple of it.
At least he has a nice radio voice and doesn't do clickbait like regular GRW youtubers. Though on additional note, as usual I never really like that "9 Things WE Want". Not because I disagreed, but that's because as far as I'm concerned I never signed a pact for him to represent me in this occassion.
'We', my ***
How about these 9 things that players have reported years ago?
1: P227 hammer?
2: MK17 magazine?
3: Fix Fallen Ghost weapons' buggy animation in the main game.?
4: L85 ACOG position?
5: More scopes for LMG?
6: Better ammo pool balance (oh yeah carrying 32 spare magazines for desert eagle totally makes sense)
7: Smoke for pve?
8: M4A1 stocks? (Either replace it or reduce the model size)
9: SASG 12 model proportion?
9: R5 select fire?
Well, I guess they won't matter because if they do, they would already get fixed in one of those 15gb 20gb patches.
