My only problem with ghost mode is your forced to only have one main weapon, it should be an option.Especially if you like to play as a sniper, it's nice to have a back up weapon for those oh crap moments.

Please reconsider permadeath in ghost mode. Finally we got an update with details to gameplay that should have been in the game when launched. But it's impossible to complete with permadeath. Fix it. Find other consequences than throwing hours and hours of gameplay right in the bin

I agree your not supposed to live a long time like the campaign, a very good point made. Myself, I love ghost mode(at least what it could be if the game ran better), but I am partial to most gaming that adds consequences, it makes it all the more intense. But well justified, many players do not. I think the community as well as the developers are still trying to figure out exactly what is ghost mode ie the idea, strategy, goal ect. and I am not just talking about what it is, but what the experience is supposed to be While some of it is simply misunderstanding and wanting more of a new game + I think this thread serves as good evidence of the how early in it's stages ghost mode is, hell it hasn't even been released to all yet.

If everything is optional, then what is Ghost Mode for at this rate?

Because we are not talking about a whole new gameplay mode or whole new campaign with brand new story, gameplay element, etc.

We are talking about an exact same Main Campaign located under different menu.

The selling point of Ghost Mode is challenge combined from the one gun, friendly fire (although it's highly abused in co-op), and permadeath - forgetting the point of Ghost Mode which is to see how far you can survive without KIA (you still can be downed, but not KIA) under this set of new pressure.

So I’ve been really careful using helicopters. I never died from jumping out of one before actually. But in Ghost mode I was literally 3 missions away from 100% completing the entire campaign just needed to get the back piece of the exo suit. And as soon as I jumped out I instantly died. No chance to pull parachute or anything. I was kind of p’d off but I took a deep breath and calmly uninstalled the game from my Xbox. I can get the back piece easily but in that game I was lvl 28 so just two levels from the blue chrome for the suit. I just can’t restart and play another 10+ hours just for the level 30 Lol. I also almost got stuck countless of times in the terrain.

Well, that's a bit of an overreaction, when you can just start a new character and concentrate on destabilising the area of the cartel for the part you are missing.

ie. If you are missing the Boots, then only do 'Security'.

There's only two items you get for reaching lvl30 & T1. Which are shades for your exosuit.

Something interesting happened to me just now...

I created a new Ghost Mode save, completed the first mission, then fast traveled to Koani because it has some weapons and attachments that I prefer. While I was in province, I foolishly picked a fight with some Sicarios and died from a hand grenade. This was on advanced, no HUD, no squad.

I received the whole death screen and everything and was preparing myself to start from scratch when I noticed that my save didn't delete. I went back into it, and other than being back in Intacua, everything else was exactly where I left it before meeting my maker.

The only thing different from this playthrough compared to other playthroughs is that I intentionally did not collect any skill points or rebel resources. I wonder if that is the key to circumventing permadeath?

EDIT: I think it was just a bug because I died again and my save deleted. I also notice that I had 2 skill points when I purposely didn't pick up any. Are some skill points awarded automatically? I never really noticed before if so.

Did it say, "You died due to an explosion"?

[bcgeorge]

Yeah, I believe so. I was in a vehicle and couldn't bail out in time.
