Most likely not. Ubisoft might toot their own horn and lie to community about taking survey feedback to heart, but that's just PR. We'll most likely see some Tom Clancy's XDefiant, R6 Extraction, the Legion/Assassin's Creed cross over, and maybe a Hyperscape update. Breakpoint has been dead for a while.

Please don't take these comments as insulting or inflammatory towards anyone on this lovely and totally fair community. Any attacks on my opinion will be reported and ignored.

I agree. For one thing you have to pay to show something at gamescom and I doubt anything related to Breakpoint is worth a price to reveal anything. Gamescom is really to talk about previously announced and future games. It also want to give awards. Current games will be shown if the game going to be on a new platform like mobile, a anniversary which will show a new game, or a big expansion coming up.

Gamescom isn’t the type of place it want to disappoint the streamers much less they reputation. Tales of Arise did a anniversary on Gamescom. State of Decay 2 showed an upcoming expansion but didn't show any details on the new state of decay 3. So it has to be a major expansion or decent game to make it. I think I also saw upcoming expansion for destiny 2.

I know GR is on its 20th anniversary but if they have a teaser to show the next game then for a brief minute they can put anything related to Breakpoint to lead towards announcement of the next GR. If there's no next GR reveal its a waste of time for Gamescom and budget for Ubisoft. There's so many new game's ready and waiting to get announced due to covid extending development in 2020. So this may be one of the most popular gamescom of all time.

Unreal Engine 5 games are slowly being revealed too which is one of the most anticipated games that gamers are looking to see next gen gaming. It's too many new game's to show so most of the old games don't have a chance. So unless the old game is good and worth showing it'll be there. Breakpoint alone can't make the cut imo. The Division 2 players feel just the same as you guys. They was promised a last update towards the end of the year but Ubisoft has been silent besides the Heartland game of course.

I don't expect a big update on The Division 2 and GR Breakpoint motherland update. I see it as a small to medium size update to thank the community for playing. Could be 2-10 missions, few new custom settings, cosmetics, a new class, and ending for the game. I don't see anything crazy like a overhaul, new modes, map expansion, or anything. We'll let me take that back.

The Division may get that cause it did overhaul, got new York as expansion map, and new summit mode. Breakpoint on the otherhand didn't get neither of those unless you want to count that new mode for the pvp that allowed you to spectate and I guess the gas mode. Still I don't see much effort but only time will tell. Too many new Ubi games to focus so I don't see Breakpoint Motherland being mind blowing but I know most looking forward to Bowman to get Wildlands vibes.

And let's not forget the quiet release of the Tomb Raider event.

They have implemented quite a big of the big things we've asked for, though. Thing is, we're not seeing the devs' reactions. We actually don't know if they've seen the survey results, yet. All we know is that the Community Team has seen them and is taking the feedback to heart. So I don't think the Community Team is lying. Also, Breakpoint isn't dead yet. There are still quite a few players playing the game, and they've said this is the biggest Operation yet, and because that means nothing in terms of the lore, what it probably indicates is that it's the biggest post-launch content yet for the game. At least, that's what I hope that means.

That said, I don't expect a Gamescom announcement or anything like that. They tend to put out significant information only a week or so before the release of content. They could always change those plans, but I wouldn't expect it.

Although the Community team have actually taken the surveys they haven’t yet actually seen the full results yet, only the small bits I’ve told them.

They won’t see the results of the Year 3, weapons and cosmetics survey until probably Monday but that’s only after myself and bullet catchet gaming have made videos detailing all of the results

I will say however that the CM has put them all into a file for the rest of the community team to use as reference material

Now I can’t actually say if any of the Dev Team have physically taken the surveys or not yet but they definitely know about them independently from the community team.

I guess the implementations are in the eye of the beholder and what one/we perceive as being an implementation because for instance, if you call removing the gearscore and call it Immersive Experience a big implementation then I am a firm believer that we would have to agree to disagree.
If it is because aside from the 100 gear kits they now have 150 gear kits that is basically all cosmetic with ZERO function then again, we will have to agree to disagree. I could go on but, really ... why, we will never agree.

Thing is, we're not seeing the devs' reactions. We actually don't know if they've seen the survey results, yet. All we know is that the Community Team has seen them and is taking the feedback to heart. So I don't think the Community Team is lying.

Ok and you believe this because that is what they have said I imagine but, let me play devils advocate here for a sec... have we seen a tangible outcome out of all of this or are we going to wait until the new game is out to judge it?

And, based on what you think the CT is not lying? is it because you know for a fact that before he hasn't done so or just your gut feeling. Do we know his record on lying vs telling the truth? My take is based on the fact that he/she works for Ubi, he/she will try to say things that he knows people (the community) wants to hear and that it will look good on Ubi. Again, that would be my take and until I see otherwise, I am not willing to give him/her/them, the benefit of the doubt and this is based on past history with others.

.Also, Breakpoint isn't dead yet. There are still quite a few players playing the game, and they've said this is the biggest Operation yet, and because that means nothing in terms of the lore, what it probably indicates is that it's the biggest post-launch content yet for the game. At least, that's what I hope that means.

OK, you're right and hope is the last thing we want to throw away but unfortunately for people like me who have been seen the spiral the Franchise has taken since 2005, it is very difficult to be cheerful and/or trust a word they are saying because, well, again... we have heard it lots and lots of time before to the point where I have a few T-shirts about it.

Nothing against your post, just trying to explain why some of us want them to show us the money before we cheer and open our wallets, that is all.

They have implemented 4 of the top 5 items from the survey in 2017 held just after launch, plus cancelled the Raids and rewrote the mission content for the last DLC. The drones and other world parameters can be set, we can turn rebel presence on. They also made changes to AI team mates - not all that we asked for but some - turned off other players in Erewhon if you want, changed the menu system to allow multiple items to be sold or dismantled. The immersive settings were all independently settable, which we asked for after the Tier mode and Ghost mode in Wildlands locked it all in one choice. No, they haven't done everything, but we should recognise the changes that have been made.

On topic, it is possible they might mention Motherland at Gamescom, the timing is right.
