Operation Motherland is Coming Soon | Forums

No kidding... that's a whole new game right there.

@ice-quinn ... you're back

I think they're reasonable. But to be honest, once I get a gaming PC around December/January, I won't have to have my hopes so high for this game.

I have Ground Branch and Escape from Tarkov on my immediate playlist.

Do we have a release date for Op Motherland?

[Eagle-eyezx]

Negative. Its TBC till the end of the year.

I’m really shocked people are actually waiting for this DLC. There are loads of better games to fill your time with and enjoy.

We’ve all been asking for this for two years. Don’t get your hopes up. Take a survey and feel like you’re making a difference.

The problem on the Forums though Chris is that this really is a small community now compared to places like Reddit (I know so,eh don’t like it and believe that this should still be the community teams first point of release etc); It was a big part of the reason that the surveys were shared in other platforms as to better gauge overall response and feeling towards the game and questions asked take for example the year 3 survey:

This seems to more or less be the same for each survey when it comes to this particular question

Now I’m not saying that these surveys will indeed make any dramatic impact, but I’m hoping that with finding a way of getting all of these communities singing in harmony from the same song sheet that out collective voice will grab their attention more (if that makes any sense)

Note: for point of reference i reckon a lot of people on the other platforms would also love to see your mission sets added as end content to the game

Operation Motherland is coming soon, and I am looking forward to it because GRB is one of my favourite games on last gen.

With that said, I would love to see some realistic updates to go along with the DLC that I think will make our game experiences better. So here are a few of my ideas, and just a few:

1) Increase enemy NPCs at bases

2) Increase enemy patrol NPCs

3) Enable team AI and enemy NPCs to get injured

4) Increase back up enemy NPCs at bases (ground artillery and infantry troops)

5) Customise enemy NPCs outfit

6) Enable team AI to drive you from point A to B.

7) Quicken enemy NPCs reaction to shoot you.

8) If possible, gear enemy NPCs to take cover and shoot. Make them patient. Instead of run and gun.

9) Configure enemy NPC to take different movements and actions at enemy bases and while patrolling. It's very predictable what they do. They should have tasks and day to day things to do at bases.

10) Put enemy patrols in the sea and lakes near bases and in random places.

11) Increase non NPCs in towns and cities in the game.

I believe that's realistic enough considering we all think the next game will make or break the game. I think a lot of us would like these added onto the game before we get the next Ghost Recon game.

Yours truly,
Eagle-eyezx

Whilst I would love to see all of this added in Motherland I can’t actually see that being the case, maybe if they take not of the surveys though

Do we have a release date for Op Motherland?

I still say that the best bet will be that the release timeline will look something like this:
Friday November 5
* initial announcement will be made with partial patch notes included (around 4pm GMT)
* Ubisoft (North America i reckon) will live stream the first released play through of Motherland probably (around 8pm GMT)

Monday November 8th
* full patch notes will be posted on the forums (around 4pm GMT)
* Maintenance schedule will be posted at same time
* All of the relevant YouTube streamers will be allowed to share pre-recorded in-game footage to “build hype”

Tuesday November 9th
* Maintenance will start at around 11am GMT and will last a minimum of 4 hours (then need an extra 2 hours)
* Maintenance finishes around 5pm GMT and game launches
* 5.30pm multiple reports of game crashes on (pick your platform)
* 9pm (for those who can play) the inevitable moaning about how the Update was poor/lacklustre etc. Will have begun on the various social pages

Friday November 12th
Free Weekend starts to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of The GR Franchise)

Monday November 15th
Free Weekend Finishes (still no Immediate fix to the crashing issues)

Friday November 20th
Statement announced reference the Crashing issue, which is now being fixed and that a patch will be released in the next week, with all affected players receiving 400 ghost coins and a shiny pink painted ACR with terrible stats (that no one would want)

Note: there is nothing official in this statement just my own best guess of what’s about to come, based purely on previous updates

Out of curiosity, who all did you ask or work with to put this up on youtube?

Just bullet catcher gaming directly, but Spoke with ASQD gaming, Gmoney Mozart and Bayzy on their opinions of it who then done their own separate videos.

I’ve done a Video Saturday with Bullet catcher gaming going through the full current results of the year 3 survey which should released tonight I think so will he shared everywhere

Correct me if I'm wrong, because I'm not too familiar with any of them other than ASQD in terms of their youtube content, but from what I know of ASQD, I can't think of many times that he has pushed for more milsim type features. And before anyone starts saying I want a milsim Ghost Recon, no, that is not what I want. I don't want mil-sim, rather more of a milsim light. I want to say that I recall ASQD saying he wanted more of a milsim light either on a forum post on here or reddit, but from what I've seen of his youtube content it is not exactly something that comes across as so. Especially in comparison to something like what is presented in the youtube video from Operatordrewski's

Even in this video there are many features that I would say go too far into being milsim that I would care for in Ghost Recon such as the entire mag checks and eyeballing your chestrig to get an estimate in your ammo count, but there are still many good ideas that appeal to me that I don't think I would ever hear from the other youtubers that were spoke with, but again, correct me if I'm wrong.
