Mission Editor would be great, Virtual-Chris always has great ideas, still play His solo one life Challenge now and then.
But lately spent a lot of time in Co-op, which is better for the banter etc, use Discord as Breakpoint seems to either work or not. Works fine for me, but my Brothers will not work properly.
I play Extreme, like the challenge.
Problem is by time UBI wakes up, other games will be available hopefully in the same Genre by another developer.
Would like to see a Realistic setting instead of messing around with settings.

1. The hope of a fix to remove the tac belt.

2. The existence of the tac belt.

3. Removal of the tac belt.

4. I'd remove the tac belt.

1. The graphics, gameplay, raids, fixes, and other cool updates.

2. Glitches, bugs, no new missions, barely life in the game

3. More Islands coming like MOA ISLAND, more raids and dlcs.

4. Add our gear and weapons in cutscenes, make cutscenes look like wildlands cutscenes, add civilians, add back some of the vehicles in wildlands like the Black Hawk helicopter, add more weapons.

1. What still brings you into Breakpoint. Is it hope? Stealth? Aesthetic? Fashion?

2. What destroys the experience for you and makes it boring (post updates)?

3. What is one thing that will keep you coming or fix the game for you?

4. How would you add replay value to Breakpoint?

For me, what keeps me coming back is co-op and shooting sh!t with my buds during lockdown every friday night. We started a Wildlands campaign in March and moved to Breakpoint over the summer and are now on Golem Island. While the game is fun in coop, it’s the social aspect and trash talking and humour that make it enjoyable.

What turns me off is the terribly un immersive environment. If I want to do some solo shooting, I’ll start Wildlands, and probably spend more time walking around than shooting.

As long as they keep building mission content, we will keep playing it. I’m not sure what we will do when we’re done playing what’s there.

Breakpoint needs more mission content, whether Ubisoft develops it or gives that task to the community with a mission creation tool, it doesn’t matter.

I really wish for a remastered Wildlands. Some days I wish I had a fall and hit my head that just erased my memory of Wildlands (but nothing else) so I could enjoy that experience fresh all over again. That was by far the best gaming experience I’ve ever had. I would love to have 50 first dates with Wildlands.

I think wildlands and breakpoint combined with everything included in BOTH games would be a success in the franchise.

Much as I would love to vote for these 4 options what I mostly want is to stop having to play DESPITE the game. Between the crappy map that has so many places i get stuck in and either have to fast travel or quit to get out of, the sadly mediocre at best AI that has to resort to stupid shortcuts to make challenging or just accept it is useless, the lousy audio quality that makes sound in this game a ridiculous challenge to understand how it is going to work I am just tired. It fundamentally has some good mechanics, but they are buried in a sh1t ton of shortcuts and frankly poorly drummed up ideas on what this game should be. I long ago gave up that mission design was ever going to be a real thing as the team at UBI just doesn't understand fundamentally what GR should be. I at least hoped that there would be enough flexibility I could design my own, but battling the slipshod work is just getting taxing.

What brings me back was the fact that I paid 120€ for a division 2 project that had such an impressive negative impact that they turned most of that garbage back to its predecessor.

The gameplay is still fun, also its worse than in Wildlands but the lack of alternatives for a not ARMA not CoD tactic shooter with stealth is what literally makes me appealing the game.

If MGSV had Coop and maybe bigger World I wouldnt even care for Wildlands or Breakpoint because neither of both is a Ghost Recon Game like the first two.

What kills me the most is the boring and bland AI. I can ignore all the shi story and boring missions as long the gameplay is fun.

1 hope that you make it more like wildlands and less Tomb Raider
2 we just needed wildlands with better indoor close quarters missions. The island is less living and boring and the objectives are so diluted I can't tell what is going on.
3 Add wildlands as a dlc map with some of the gameplay fixes in graphics. Not to the camping, base non vehicle spawn crap.
4 remove the base camp, bivouac, non vehicle spawn streamline the objectives more like wildlands. Colorcode the mini map like before in wildlands. The why did you take a good game like wildlands and throw it all out of the window? Smaller less interesting map remove ai for awhile thank god you fixed that flub added a bunch of trash that no one wanted. Add wildlands dlc and watch what would happen.

1. I love the mechanics. the fighting and stealth are great and the faction missions are fun.

2. Mostly, the fact that the faction missions, which is what I mostly do in the game, havent been improved or updated at all.

3.+4. More faction missions types for variations, different faction mission objectives in locations that only had other types of objectives in them, more faction missions per day, more gear and weapons dropped into the game every now and then. More Ghost Experience improvement! Every new GE feature is great. the more they add - the better.

1. It's still fairly niche for what it is with few alternatives that get close to the intended experience. Also mainly the hope of future improvements and keeping the game and discussions going.

2. Generally still really clunky and hindered by questionable design decisions. Little to no reward or incentive to do anything.

3. Regular updates and better comms.

4. Control point or capture mechanics underpinned by faction based mechanics to give a sense of progression. Anything that allows the player to have an impact on the world or offer a reason to play beyond one shot missions and content.

I know I sound like a broken record but all they needed to do was take Wildlands and deepen the mechanics and add new systems to support replayability and emergent gameplay. Ie turn it into a dynamic sandbox.

If they'd just done that and used the same map then I would have happily paid for that. None of the guff that we got apart from perhaps the movement has done anything to improve over the predecessor. Even that still has a plethora of issues.

They spent 3-4 years and a boatload of cash achieving the square root of f*CK all with regards to the gameplay mechanics. In fact I'd say only the post launch improvements have have made any inroads into this area after having to back out huge chunks and remodel the gameplay completely.

It still defies explanation as to how they so completely and utterly missed the mark in almost every conceivable way. We ordered steak and got a happy meal, sent it back and have been waiting a year for them to figure out how to cook steak and in the meantime they sent out a mcflurry in the form of a raid.
