I've been wanting to share the news with you since FOREVER but as with the gig, my lips are sealed.

My excitement levels for Tuesday are HIGH!

This is a good sign. "FOREVER" leads me to think Ubi has been planning a new direction for GR for a while and has been busy getting all the ducks in a row before revealing it. This could explain why all of the recent updates have been very low budget with minimal investment just to do the bare minimum to keep fans engaged while they focus on what's next. They have no end of community feedback to get the next one right and surpass our expectations. It also makes sense from the point of view of market position. They have arguably the best IP for tactical shooters but have been bitten by so many new and small competitors recently incrementally developing new IPs with small improvements. Only Ubi and the GR name can coalesce it all into the new experience that builds on what's been right with WL and BP. Looking forward to it, don't let us down Ubi!

I wouldn't get my hopes up.

Dude that's not what derogatory means. You can't just call everything you disagree with derogatory.

If you can't understand what's derogatory about a comment implying someone is being deceitful, then there's no real point discussing it further.

It's not derogatory to imply that HR is mostly there for the company not the employee (this is a metaphor). There's nothing up for debate in saying that you are a part of Delta Company and that should be kept in mind when reading your thoughts on BP or Ubisoft. You're coming off incredibly sensitive when I meant no offence. Conflicting opinions is healthy for forum such as this one.

I do appreciate you attempting to point out exactly what it was you found derogatory this time instead of just ghosting, like the last time you chose to improperly throw that word around.

For the record, the idea that Ubisoft is just doing what all companies do is laughable. Whether that's what you were implying or not, the statement and sentiment stands.

Thanks Blue.

You really don't see how toxic you are towards him huh...

I realize he has a fan base here and I'm not trying to rile that base up for a gang up session.

I'll just acknowledge your apparent blindness to *his* toxicity and I'll leave it at that.

I mean, it's the pre-show. I didn't realize people watched that, but looking back at it it's basically a recruiting pitch - i.e. "this is what it's like to work here, come join us". The whole thing is a PR exercise for Ubi, so is it really surprising they might want to pitch working there to people who play their games?



Interviews discussing different topics about Siege, including their help for veterans causes.

And to top it off? That was from a three-hour stream (seeing as you're including the pre-show)

Hey, you simply said that Ubi never spent more than a minute talking about their staff, during any of their presentations. You did not specify that it had to be part of the main show. And since Ghost Recon has only been part of the pre-shows, we've pretty much have had no choice but to watch.

If we're gonna be pedantic, GR wasn't part of the Ubi forward "pre-show" you seem to be referencing, so yes, you had zero reason to watch it if that was your only interest. Heck, given they release the videos separately, you don't even have to watch the main event in real-time.

Anyhow, if you wanna get annoyed that they spent ~2% of a three hour stream on a recruitment pitch, then I don't know what to say.

No, but it was their E3 show, so many tuned in just in case they announced something unexpected..
