So I was messing about last night and created some Weapons I would like to see come to Ghost Recon Breakpoint
I wouldn’t even mind if these were added as not customisable weapon skins int he MTX store.
My question to the Forum is this though?
If The Breakpoint Team were to make a few Specific SF weapons pack from different countries like British, Canadian, A few European and maybe a Russian Weapons packs
And things like the ACR and Mk18 from America, Would people buy them!
Before everyone kicks off and says about MTX ruining games, I get that but I don’t think Ubi would put that effort into weapon skins for free. This could be another little way for them to make some money and redeem some faith with their fanbase
Also if there’s any other weapons people would like to see in the game let me know as I’m thinking about trying to mock up some more unique weapons!
Make the free and I’m in.. I’m from Italy and I can say I want more weapons.. many people probably don’t know it but a lots of weapons in the game are Italians.. we have like 6 Italian made knives, the Spas12 is Italian, so is the benelli M4 and the Arx200 and the Scorpio.. I’d love to see more, the arx160 is the asr variant of the 200 (which irl is used as dmr)chambered in 5.56 with a higher rate of fire and the possibility to fire 6.8spc as well, Victrix armament, the manufacturer that made the Scorpio also made what is basically a 408ct version of the Scorpio and a 50.cal version called Corvo.. all these would make some fine additions
But I’d probably play every weapon from every country, if it was free.. this game needs a gunsmith update and more weapons, you mentioned the ACR and mk18, I’ll add the XM8.. instead of an American weapon package I’d rather put them in a ghost recon iconic weapons package
As much as I would love them to add all of these for free, I think it’s much more believable that they would add them as Paid content as a way to make some extra cash.Originally Posted by raptor2-40delta Go to original post
you mention a few Italian weapons what if for example they added an Italian pack with both Vegetato and Desert Vegetato camo’s a couple of in service Italian Weapons a few specific Cosmetic Items and some Italian SF Unit patches as a full package would you be interested though
I've been suggesting a similar approach be taken for all cosmetic DLC in this franchise.
Have weapons and gear that make sense to the period, units/factions involved and setting be available, be it from the begining (in the case of gear and weapons associated with the Ghosts) or through battlefield pick-ups and looting the gameworld (for local and OPFOR stuff).
When and ONLY WHEN you've got all of that in place and working in the base game should you offer people foreign or more exotic equipment, preferably in packs that offer a COMPLETE look or unique attachments, camo patterns/colours, patches and weapons to that a particular unit or country not featured in the base game. Meaning, CUT IT with adding bits and pieces of gear that you'll never be able to combine with what you have into a coherent whole, resulting in a hideous mess, no gear or weapon enthusiast would dare be seen wearing, just NO.
Instead, say that for whatever reason you pick CAG from the 2008-2010 period as the subject for a DLC pack; in that case Mich 2002s, RAVs or CVC plate carriers + groin armor (and possibly a full assortment of Paraclete pouches), ANVIS 9 NODs, Peltor 1s and MRE M4s (complete with their famous custom front grip/flashlight attachment) should be included. In short, all you'd need to ACTUALLY complete a loadout, that is ACCURATE to the period or theme of the DLC.
And accuracy also extends to perhaps weapon-centric DLCs, I don't want to see 30-year old weapon systems or versions of them if not relevant to the main setting or the theme behind a particular DLC anymore in these games; people playing these NICHE games are pretty knowledgeable about these subjects and thus place ENORMOUS importance in these elements be recreated faithfully in order for the fantasy to function.
Personally, if they gave me all these Italian stuff for like 5€ I’d pay it.. but I don’t think it would be wise to give everything as a pack.. give some items for free and some in a pack, idk here my thought to give you an example, put the arx160 in 5.56 as free weapon, put in the pack the arx160 with the vegetata camo and in 6.8spc as paying contentOriginally Posted by Sandilands85 Go to original post
Put the Victrix 408ct as free content, put the Corvo 50cal as paid content
Vegetata for free, Vegecam paid
This way we can choose wether the free one are enough or if we want to pay as well to have everything.. giving us this choice would be seen as more fair (so far they did similar things with special edition asr being paid content while standard ones being free)
Yes, i would defentiely buy them, in fact i would probably even prefere to buy them so that i can use them as soon as possible depending on the individual weapon.
one of those packs should contain the AUG A3 SF with integrated scope though.
i also would look forward to some proper looking AK variants (not like the prototype AK-12 design we have in the game right now)
A AS Val, VSS Vintorez and S3RM would be nice too.
no. Only because even if they added them for free, there would still be nothing to do in a buggy game. Paying for them in this game, no way.Originally Posted by Sandilands85 Go to original post
I used to play a lot battlefield with the AS Val and the VSS vintorez, loved them, would be cool if they were added here as wellOriginally Posted by Leucos_ Go to original post
For me if they add them while fixing and improving the gunsmith, it wouldn’t be bad, but then again it would be up to a personal choice from each of usOriginally Posted by Steven527 Go to original post
