Ghost mode Toggle Permadeath | Forums

[yawnosFC3]

Ghost mode sounds great, harder, somewhat more realistic, don't really care about friendly fire, wasn't really an issue. however permadeath kills the entire point to this mode. if can't keep my character its not worth playing. if the game worked perfectly and I could expect random BS not to happen then MAYBE it may be plausible but that is definitely not the case as everyone knows. Keeping these new features locked behind permadeath is poor game design, and needs to be changed otherwise the ghost mode update is pointless to a lot of people.

Seriously just a simple toggle when making the character would solve the entire issue, besides permadeath should not be delete you character save file BS. it should be that when you get shot and go down there is no revive by team mates option your just drop dead and have to restart the mission as if it didn't happen, maybe even make it so you have to go back to a safe-house to save or all points or items missions and anything done at all doesn't save.

Might want to post this in the General forum. This sub forums is for Ghost War. .....not Ghost Mode.

....but yeah, many of us have voiced our frustration with this new mode using PD as it's backbone and locking other long requested features behind it. Ubi is definitely aware but it's always good for others to chime in and let them know more people are of the same mindset.

Maybe Ubisoft could make some kind of Compromise:

Make Permadeath an Option and decrease all Rewards for those who do
or
Unlock Realism Features such as Reload or One Primary in Campaign Mode.

I personally would prefer the second, just because I'm still kind of annoyed they locked long time requested Features behind GM.

I’m fine with Ghost Mode being perma-death, and having exclusve rewards.

They do have to add all of the realism options to the man game and DLC expansions though. The only firm difference between main mode & Ghost mode should be perma-death & Exo-Suit rewards.

I do wonder though...eventually, when everyone gets the Exo-Suit, what’s the point of Ghost Mode beyond 1-time Prestige Points?

I hope there are plans on resetting Ghost Mode’s rewards, even if only annually, so that you can make a new character and work towards new rewards and more Prestige Points. If the ENTIRE mode is a 1-shot deal, that’d be lame, because I really enjoy it for what it’s worth.

I agree. Personally, I have zero interest in the exo suit so if they want to keep that as an exclusive for those that choose PD, so be it. The only reason I am playing GM is for the other features anyway. .....and it if weren't for the ability to backup my character, I wouldn't be playing it at all.

BTW, how does that Backup work on PS4?
I was only able to find PC Workarounds.
If you find the Time, would you send me a PM? Thanks in advance!

No problem. It's really easy.
