I'm not keen on everything that has been revealed so far, but am still looking forward to checking out the DLC offers. But I'm hoping that the rank progression to level 99, and the associated rewards, are not restricted to this new mode.

What I meant was you play through and Haruhi and the outcasts take over Auroa. Game over, credits role - there are no enemies left. you can't reload a save, you are done unless you delete that character slot and start over. One aspect of Wildlands that really works for me is the saves. I have all 3 of my ghost mode characters set with no missions accomplished. I have collected all the weapons, bonuses etc etc but not single campaign mission. This keeps the rebel presence to a minimum and I do a session, go shoot some sh1t up and the restore to the no missions state. BP allows me to do a little of that simply by replaying individual missions, but I can not save the game at a particular state.

Ah, I see. They made it sound like it was a mode. That implies to me that you can turn it on/off. But who knows. If it plays out as you say, that’s not ideal for replay, for sure. But if it’s really good, I’ll be motivated to try it again from scratch with a new character. If it’s not good, than my Nomad is fine retiring to a cabin on the tropical part of the island and calling it a day.

Yeah I agree. With the little check boxes in the video, it makes me think that there will be parameters we can toggle when we feel like it so no, I don't believe to "reset" the world we'd need to start a new character.



My only hope, and this is unlikely as the majority of games keep their missions the same every time, is that things change up each time you play it. I love how in BP they give you clues to figure out for yourself where the objective is. Some are really good like finding the 3 locations to sabotage over in the northern near island for 1 of the scientists - that was done well. But the thing with that is that once you know and find out the locations, they stay the same and so replayability is a bit stale. Would love for certain missions to change on each playthrough e.g. location of the objective changes, enemy patrols change, numbers if enemies change for instance.

Additionally I'd love difficulty to not just mean the AI are more deadly. It should mean that the target objective is harder to reach. E.g. the number of enemies increases, enemies react better, enemy patrols are covered better by others making it trickier to take patrols out without alarming the base, maybe cameras to evade, etc. The mission should be more difficult not just that the AI are deadlier.

I feel they did some of this with the faction missions but would be good if this happens in this new mode too so if it is enjoyable, I can playthrough it more than once on different difficulties (or the same) and see how I get on.

Overall though, from this reveal alone, it does look good so I'm going to stop with the "what ifs" and "it should be's" and just see how it goes. We need to remember this is a free addition to a game 2 years after launch that we've already paid money for so I for 1 am not expecting something that should mimic an entire brand new game or something massively game changing that turns it on its head and back to a more GR type game. That would be quite naive. Those sort of conversations can be had to drive a new GR project and like others have said above, that is where a big improvement in comms between the fanbase and company needs to happen and they need to be commited to doing such.

CM should of made post, would of carried more weight imho. Ubi could of easily of made it happen

Overall video looked good, since ubi has ability to deliver decent PR clips will update be of same quality?

Why more bullet sponge archetype? More Armor, more Armor more armor
These guys look like EOD, bet they don’t plod along like them.
Everyone dislike shot gunners now using same poor bot code equip them with SMG and ARMOR ……. Kool

Ignoring new archetypes, god I hope I CAN turn that looney toon portion off

Looks promising
Gonna have to see what update plays like

[hertz_1987]

More sponges, Great......

While I am happy we finally get something interesting, I am not hyped in the slightest.

It took forever and it was after a HUGE kick in the guts for several MONTHS.

A Trailer is one thing, not getting excited until I play Motherland. All Trailers look good, that's what they are meant to do. I do hope it is as good, but is it going to be another short lived experience.
Will the bugs be gone! The pathetically programmed Breachers! Etc.
Most of all is it going to be a pain logging in and staying in.
Anyway fingers crossed for next week.

I’m hoping for one of the following 2 things:
Either once we are done we can reset regions with enemy control.. or the enemy can take back regions once in a while and we can decide wether to go and help repel them or just wait till the region is theirs again ti retake it

looks crap, just do a new single player focused game ffs.

keeping this game going as long as possible is annoying af.

it's probably going to be another year or two before a new PVE focused Ghost Recon game is ready to release. So you would prefer them NOT to keep the community engaged until then? That makes no sense whatsoever.Killing off support for Breakpoint isn't going to help the next game get created any faster.
but if you want to go focus on another game, until a new Ghost Recon game is released, you are more than welcomed to. Nobody is going to force you to play Op Motherland, or any future updates.
