    The 'Next Major Update' Prediction Thread

    As you all know, we won't be getting the major content update until later this year, so let's fire off some predictions of what will absolutely certainly be coming in the next major update, aside from the new game mode. All answers are welcomed.

    Things in this thread will either age very poorly or very well, so good luck! LOL

    I'm just gonna throw out cross play.

    > All missions are legendary (unique reward for each mission)
    > Hard difficulty level for raids
    > Limited special event "Codname: Nightmare"

    Changes to the spec
    - the weapon damage node unified instead of being splitted between each weapon category
    - buff/rework to some perks/weapons
    - grenades and skills not locked behind spec

    Leggendary missions
    im ok with just the 2 remaining stronghold , tidal basin and manning national zoo. Better than nothing.

    Reworked stats
    - Health is really bad at the moment. Increase these numbers.
    - Armor isnt in a great spot either. Increase these number too.
    - armor regen should be % to reward tanks instead of punishing them. Something like 0.2% at max should be ok

    PVP changes

    new skill variants, at least one for the decoy

    new exotics, maybe linked to the new mode.

    new comms

    new way to customize our agent like the keener watch

    new rooms for the summit(personally id like to see a spa themed floor, medical office and lets not forget about windows)

    new objective for the summit(destroy the stockpile, open enemy caches, reactivate something like lights to see your enemy in a dark room or fire sprinklers to remove dangerous hazards)

    an highly improbable third raid on rikers island.

    new commendation/patches

    whatever there is under the summit

    Ultra safe lame predictions:
    - New exotics
    - New brand
    - Rebalanced few gear sets
    - New PVE game mode

    Wild hopeful predictions:
    - Reworked specializations
    - New type of gear slot (watches, elbow pads, boots or something similar)
    - Classified gear sets
    - Gear set weapons (kinda weird mix between named and exotics)
    - New skills
    - New enemy faction
    - New specialization

    also i kinda already did a list of personal suggestions: (https://forums.ubisoft.com/showthrea...ations-unlocks)

    its would be redundant unless they would be able to come up with something very unique to them , like a talent connected to the 4 piece set , but i like the idea.

    My tongue and cheek prediction:

    They turn the game into an entirely mobile service. Features -

    1) You have to pay real world money to skip cutscenes and it costs twice as much to skip cutscenes with Kelso, Manny or Fae Lau.

    2) The exclusive exotic costs money to unlock. It is called the Wallet Bearer. You can spend real world currency to give it damage buffs.

    3) Bugs and glitches get fixed fast. They are often resolved within less than 15 minutes.

    4) No NPC's stuck behind doors or other annoyances.

    5) The App is free to play tho.

    6) It costs a new energy currency called "Tactical Intelligence" to re-run missions. You can purchase "Tactical Intellegence" with real world currency or grinding in the open world under PvPvE circumstances. You can only grind "Tactical Intelligence" in the new PvPvE LZ. A friend of mine guessed that one.

    7) That same friend also guessed that there is a chance that your safehouses could be invaded and that you would need "Tactical Intellegence" to upgrade them constantly to prevent their fall. If they fall, you can't fast travel to the site and have to walk alone.

    8) Also you can turn off the PvPvE LZ at any time as long as your credit card is on file.

    9) There are 96 new specializations and all specializations are unlocked randomly with a system of loot boxes. Duplicate specialization rolls can grant you additional textiles.
