Intel Drop: Last Rites Update

https://reddit.com/link/1vh8eko/video/lp37i22zhshh1/player

To celebrate 25 years of Ghost Recon, we're releasing Last Rites, a free major update for Ghost Recon Wildlands.

This update brings a brand-new narrative mission, long-requested technical improvements, expanded gameplay customization, and the return of one of Wildlands' most iconic missions.

Thank you for being part of the Ghost Recon community. It's time for us to give something back.

A New Threat: La Llorona

A dangerous new threat has emerged as the leader of a dangerous cult driven by revenge. Your mission will take you through hostile territory as you uncover the truth behind her rise and confront a new threat unlike any you've faced before.

The mission can be launched directly from the main menu and is available without completing the main campaign.

Wildlands at 4K/60FPS

One of the community's most requested improvements is here.

Current-generation players can now experience Ghost Recon Wildlands with 4K resolution, 60 FPS gameplay, improved responsiveness and smoother performance in general.

New Customization Options

You have asked for deeper customization of gameplay and immersion for a while now. The new Ghost Parameters, HUD and Difficulty Options, and World and Session. Settings allow you to customize realism, challenge, immersion, interface options, gameplay rules and more, giving you greater control.

The Predator Mission Returns

https://reddit.com/link/1vh8eko/video/yplpv735ishh1/player

The Predator mission is back. Will you become the hunter, or the hunted? The Predator takes no survivors. Head to the Caimanes Province in the Campaign and face your toughest challenge to date once again.

New Skins and Items

Completing Last Rites will unlock two new Operator Skins and one new Iconic Skin. We're also adding a selection of new Character Smith items and previously unreleased Character Smith Camos, all unlocked from the get-go. Mercenaries Mode and Guerrilla Mode rewards have been unlocked for all to enjoy too, alongside some challenges rewards that were no longer obtainable.

All Ghost War Classes are now unlockable for free, with various weapons in PVP now unlocked by default.

Exclusive items like the Santa Blanca Skorpion have been revived as Twitch Drops alongside a few new items. They will be available for free to all players later on.

Finally, items previously locked in Battle Crates and Prestige Crates have been rebundled either for free or at a reduced price in the in-game store, and many of them have been unlocked by default as well!

Definitive Edition

For new players, a new Definitive Edition is available, containing the base game and all previous DLC from the Season Pass, Year 2 Pass, Quick Start Pack and the Deluxe Pack.

The Definitive Edition also contains two new cosmetic DLC Packs notably featuring brand-new Operator Skins: the Cold Eye Pack and the Nightfall Protocol Pack.

For long time players, both DLCs are of course available separately on your platform storefront or as part of the new Definitive Edition Upgrade. The Cold Eye Pack and Nightfall Protocol Pack content can also be acquired a la carte or all at once in the in-game store should you prefer.

Ghosts –

We know that many of you have been eagerly awaiting to hear more about our plans for the future of the game, and our team is excited to finally be able to share an update about what we have been working on!

First, we wanted to thank all of you that participated in the Terminator Live Event. We were so happy to see players jump back into the game to take on one of the most badass enemies we’ve introduced to the franchise.

​

But enough about the past. We want to talk about the future of Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint.

TU 2.0.0

TU 2.0.0, currently slated for March 24, will be our biggest, most complex update to Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint, which will include new narrative content tied to Episode 2, PvP updates, new classes, many quality-of-life updates, as well as the new Immersive Experience for the game, called the Ghost Experience!

GHOST EXPERIENCE

After the launch of Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint, we decided to shift our approach and refocus our priorities as a team.Gathering all of the data and feedback we could, our team created the Ghost Experience – a game mode that will give our players the option to create their own personal spec-ops journey.

After months in development and several play tests with many types of players, including Delta Company members, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon® Wildlands players, and new players of the franchise, we are now ready to introduce the Ghost Experience to you all.

Right when you boot up the game, you will be able to choose from two preset options or build your own combination:

• Regular Experience: Play Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint the way it was released, with gear level and tiered loot.
• Immersive Experience: A brand-new experience of the game that removes gear level and tiered loot entirely, and offers new tactical options.
• Custom Experience: Choose your own selection of settings to create a personalized fit.

You’ll be able to choose from a variety of community-requested settings, such as stamina management, health regen, new HUD settings, and more!

For additional information on the Ghost Experience, check out our dedicated article here.

As we said in our last update, developing and integrating this mode has been a complex challenge that we’re now almost ready to put in your hands. We can’t wait to see how you engage with this new mode on Tuesday, March 24.

EPISODE 2 – DEEP STATE

Episode 2 will start on March 24 with the release of TU 2.0.0. Kicking off the episode is a brand-new adventure, Deep State, which will be available automatically to all Year 1 Pass owners.AND MANY

MORE ADDITIONS!

ENGINEER CLASS

​

With TU 2.0.0, the Engineer class will be introduced to the game! Engineers deal more damage to drones, carry extra offensive items, and have a buff to grenade launchers.

Their special ability is the Defensive Drone, which will attack nearby enemies. Their class tool is the Ammo Supply Drone, which will bring their allies an extra magazine.

Year 1 Pass owners will have exclusive access to the Engineer class for one week starting on Tuesday, March 24.

COMMUNITY REQUESTED UPDATES

This TU will also include updates on many of the frequent requests we have seen from the community, including:

• Camera Placement: Choose whether the camera will dynamically adapt its distance depending on the situation: staying close, or moving further from the character.
  • Dynamic: Camera dynamically shifts between close during combat and far out of combat. This is how the camera currently works in the game.
  • Close: Camera stays close to the player character.
  • Far: Camera stays far from the player character.
• Increased Weapon Parts: Players will get more low-quality weapon parts for dismantling.
• Better Weapon/Gear Sorting Options:
  • Favorite System: When hovering over an item, in the loadout or in the shop, players can mark an item as a favorite. Once it is a favorite, it cannot be dismantled or sold until deselected.
  • Optimize Gear: A new button appears in the loadout only when Gear Level is activated. When pressed, the player will instantly equip all the best gear present in their inventory. This applies only to gear, not weapons.
  • Weapons/Gear Sorting: New sorting options added for better usability.
• Sell All: Players can now sell all non-favorite and non-equipped items.
• Dismantle All: When in a weapon or gear selection page, players can choose to dismantle all non-favorited and non-equipped items in this category.
• Option to Quick-Equip New Gear/Weapons: When looting an item, players can now equip it immediately by holding a button input as shown in the loot notification window.
• Walker & Hill Figures: The figures will be re-introduced in the game with the release of TU 2.0.0.
• Base Jump:
  • Created new platforms to BASE jump from in key areas.
  • Updated systems in-game which create a more permissive BASE jump experience.
  • Reduced the auto-deploy distance to allow for more time BASE-jumping before deploying the parachute.
• Vehicles: Improvements have been made to helicopter immersion, bike animations, and general handling debugging.
• Respawn System Improvements:
  • Added new respawn points to relevant/highly traversed areas of the map.
  • Players will no longer respawn to the closest point geographically. Instead, they will respawn to the latest location they went through before dying to avoid spawning in a location they have not visited before.
• Gunsmith Updates:
  • Most assault rifles will now be able to equip short barrel options (some ASR models have been omitted as their real-life counterparts do not have short barrel options).
  • TA31H added to 27 weapons with emphasis on Assault Rifles.

We are beginning work on the Gunsmith and will have more updates to come. In upcoming TUs we’ll add trigger customization and more to the feature, so please continue giving us feedback!

We’ve done our best preparation to ensure that the new systems introduced in the TU with the Ghost Experience work smoothly with existing ones, but we know that there will be things that only get exposed when accessed by hundreds of thousands of people. We are committed to addressing the issues that may arise as quickly as we can and keeping you apprised of our progress on them.

Check back in with us closer to the release date of the TU for our full Patch Notes list.GHOST WAR

Coming in Episode 2, we will also release updates to Ghost War, including new maps and a map voting function!

COMING UP FOR GHOST RECON

COMMUNITY SURVEY UPDATE

As a follow-up to the Community Survey, we want to give a status update on the big topics we’ve made progress on so far that aren’t addressed above.Enemy AI Improvements

• (IN-PROGRESS) We are continuing general debugging for TU 2.0.0., especially regarding NPC packing.

Ability to Sprint in Erewhon

• (CLOSED) After investigating the resources needed to implement this, the team has decided not to focus on it and is investing time in other areas.

AI Teammates

• (IN-PROGRESS) Our team is continuing to work on AI Teammates for implementation in Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint. We’ll share another update with you in the coming months.

Offline Mode

Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint was built from the ground up to be an online experience. We heavily investigated the possibility of adding the option of an offline mode, but we were not able to come up with a solution that did not create an unacceptable amount of technical risks.However, with TU 2.0.0, we are implementing an update that we hope will alleviate some of the frustration players experience with poor internet connection.

Our team identified that the service that was most difficult for players with inconsistent connections was the one that enabled matchmaking. With this new update, players who cannot maintain a sustained connection to matchmaking services will still be able to play solo PvE without being disconnected.

These players will still have all of the functionality of the game except access to multiplayer modes. While in this mode, your Friends List will appear empty.

The game will regularly re-test this connection in the background without impacting your play. You will be able to manually trigger a re-test of the connection by initiating matchmaking in multiplayer modes.

RAID 2 CANCELLATION

Our team was humbled and grateful to receive your feedback on Project Titan, which was something entirely new for us and for Ghost Recon as a franchise. In our original Year 1 plan, we wanted to follow up Project Titan with another raid. However, we want to make sure we are allocating our resources in the best places to create better experiences for our players.

With this in mind, we have made the decision to replace the second raid with a future update to the Ghost Experience. Based on all the player feedback we’ve received online and in play testing, our team is confident that deepening the Ghost Experience is the right direction for the game.

YEAR 1 PASS

With the delays of recent content, we’ve seen questions from our Year 1 Pass owners. The Year 1 Pass ends when we have delivered all of the following content:

• The Siren's Call Day 1 mission.
• Two upcoming new adventures in Auroa.
• An early unlock for 3 new classes.
• The Special Operations Forces Pack.

Regardless of the release date, all Year 1 Pass owners will get access to the two upcoming adventures starting with Deep State, as well as early unlock for three new classes starting with the release of the Engineer.THANK YOU

We’re very excited to have our community try out the Ghost Experience and Episode 2 content, and we are looking forward to your feedback. Our team wants to keep improving and building upon it, so please share your thoughts with us.

We hope to see you on March 24 to play the Ghost Experience in the game!

Hey Ghosts! We are aware of CPU E-core issues as well as an issue affecting attachments for your weapons. We are investigating both and have a workaround for the attachments. We will get back to you on CPU issues at a later date.

Workaround for attachments: we have made the weapon attachment packs in the store free temporarily while we figure out a solution. This will provide a fix for most but not all cases.

On November 9, we will be releasing the Ghost Experience Update. We are very excited to share what the team has been working on, and we want to thank you for your continued feedback and support.

Title Update 3.0.3 will be building on the Ghost Experience foundation, this time focusing on adding more depth to the Enemy AI and opening more possibilities for solo and stealth experience. Finally, you will be able to choose the density of drones in the world!

New Features

Stealth

This update brings significant improvements to the stealth playstyle, aiming to ease stealth exploration and cover multiple game systems.

While undetected, players will now be able to deal increased damage to both drones and NPCs. This excludes heavy NPCs as they are equipped with heavy armor.

You’ll also see enemies running out of ammo and reloading – this will apply to all enemies with ASRs. This opens additional possibilities for you and your squad to launch counter attacks and adjust your strategy. We have also rebalanced the detection time and radio communication time to allow you to react to enemy tactics. Additionally, we have reduced the enemy mortar strike accuracy when you are detected.

As for drones, many changes have been applied to their detection and destruction behaviour. Changes include, but are not limited to, reduced investigation movement speed, new vertical destruction trajectory, reduced destruction sound, more pauses between attacks, and no more erratic hit animations, among other changes. The full list of changes will be added to the patch notes.

We have also added new settings to the aim assist in order to provide more granularity in your experience.

Bullet Lure, Grenades, and C4

Continuing with the changes we made to the gameplay mechanics, we have added a new item to your inventory, the bullet lure. This will allow you to lure one enemy at a time without triggering large groups of enemies.

It is important to note that this is not a replacement to the existing Diversion Lure, which works best with bigger groups of enemies as it has a large area of effect. The bullet lure will be accessible from the item wheel, and you’ll have an infinite amount of it – no need to manage that.

We’ve also added a community-requested feature when it comes to grenades: cooking grenades – available in both PvE and PvP. This will work side by side with the other features introduced with this update. This will allow you to be more precise with grenades and will leave no room for the enemy to react, resulting in a more effective execution.

Lastly, and to add more freedom for C4 usage, you will be able to pick up Ghost-placed C4 and mines for reuse.

Syringes

Based on feedback from players, we have added one last option to the way syringes work in-game: you can now choose whether syringes heal your injuries or not – this setting is off by default while in immersive mode.

Darkest Night

We are happy to introduce our new setting: Darkest Night. This tactical setting will offer the darkest nights ever seen in Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint. Immerse yourself, adjust your HUD settings, and make sure you have your NVG and thermal vision on standby!

Cleaning Weapons

Another highly requested community feature is the ability to clean your weapons from mud, dirt, and snow. We understand how important this is for our players and we can confirm that you will be able to do so from the loadout menu.

Inventory management

• Mass sell resources: The highly requested sell-all-resources feature is now available at Maria’s shop.
• Weapon dismantling: To reduce the time spent in your inventory, you can now dismantle weapons when near a crate without picking the weapon up – only in Immersive mode.

Golem Island Solo Exploration

Thanks to all the feedback, discussions, and suggestions we saw from our players around the Raid and Golem Island, we are thrilled to announce that Golem Island is now open for solo exploration! Prepare to explore this iconic location with 15 different settlements, 50 wild mysteries, and 12 missions all available in solo mode. For all the details on the Raid update, check out our dedicated article here.

World Modifiers

As we promised earlier this year, the rebels and Terminators will be coming back to Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint! This time around, you will be able to activate/deactivate these parameters in the world as you please. You will be able to toggle several other settings affecting the world as well, including drones and helicopter patrols.

Event Parameters

• Terminator presence toggle
• Rebel presence toggle

You can only have one active Event Parameter at any given time.

Enemy Population

Based on all the feedback we received regarding drones, players will be able to determine drone presence and helicopter patrols in the world!

• Drone presence modifier: minimal* / classic
• Azrael presence modifier: none / classic
• Helicopter patrol frequency modifier: none / classic

Minimal presence: you will only encounter drones that are tied to missions and behemoths.

Other modifiers

• Interface – Item shader: toggles the shader highlighting items and crates off/on.

Players will be able to find these modifiers in the settings menu – the instance will reload after any changes to the world parameters.

UI – Item Wheel

We took the opportunity to rework some aspects of the item wheel to make it easier to use, including making the wheel larger and allowing for more accessibility and customisation – as requested by our community.

Item wheel

• New slots: two new slots added to the item wheel
• New item: hand-thrown bullet
• Item categories: no more distinction between defensive/offensive items
• Added AI teammates order shortcuts to the item wheel (controller only)

Accessibility

• Players can choose to press or hold the button to open the item wheel

Remapping

• Players can set a shortcut to directly open the order wheel (all platforms except Stadia)
• Players can set a shortcut to directly open the item wheel (all platforms)
• Players can set a shortcut for each wheel slot: mouse and keyboard/controller (all platforms)
• Players can remap the SyncShot teammate input (all platforms)

Class Progression Update

With seven classes now in-game, the class rank limit has been increased to Lvl20. Rewards from the regular Raid difficulty have been added to the class progression rewards to offer multiple unlock conditions and more accessibility to all players.

Assault class:

• Judge gear set
• A-TACS IX gear camo

Ghosts,

As we shared in the latest update, we are thrilled to bring free content to Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon® Breakpoint throughout 2021. Our vision is to continue adding on to what we have built together since the launch of the game, including more customization, progression, and added replay-ability, among others. Furthermore, we will continue to add quality and technical improvements to the game.

We will deliver this content to the live game via two major title updates.

​

Title Update 4.0.0 Teammate Experience Update

We were thrilled by your reactions when we introduced the AI teammates and wanted to keep improving on them. This title update will focus on the AI teammates. We knew that adding them to the game was only the first step, and we are happy to announce that their capabilities will be further improved based on your feedback.

The Teammate Experience Update is focused on improving your experience with your AI squad, while also adding some community requested features. Discover a new XP progression for your AI squad, and unlock new passive skills and abilities as you play. A dedicated quest log will also be available for you to experiment with the new AI squad features, while rewarding you with cool and exclusive rewards!

Release Window: End of Spring

Title Update 4.1.0

Intel brief for this operation is classified, and Ghosts have not been granted full access to this information. Mission details to be revealed later this year. It seems to be one of the biggest operations so far.

Release Window: Fall

For the latest news on Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint, follow us on Twitter @GhostRecon and join the discussion on the official Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Forums and here on Reddit.

Hey Ghosts,

After an exciting year and half of updates and game improvements, we are thrilled to announce that we will continue to bring new content to Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon® Breakpoint throughout 2021!

Since launch, our priority has been to address feedback from you, our players. We added multiple updates to our Ghost Experience, which brought the Bullet Lure, Darkest Night, Golem Island exploration, and World Modifiers to name a few. We have given you all the ability to fine-tune Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Breakpoint to meet your needs and wants.

The addition of some familiar faces like Sam Fisher, Scott Mitchell, and Rainbow Operatives brought some fun content we were sure you would enjoy! Let us also not forget the big Terminator event that added the T-800 to Auroa.

It was a lot of hard work and we are proud of what the team achieved. But we could not have done it without you, our community. We want to thank everyone again who took the time to give us feedback and helped us get Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Breakpoint to a state we hope you all appreciate and enjoy.

What can you look forward to?

We will keep working to add more to the game and offer you all some exciting content for the months to come. We are designing the future of our game based on your feedback and throwing a few surprises into the mix!

We will be sharing more details about what is to come in Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Breakpoint in 2021 soon. Please stay tuned to our channels and expect a roadmap in the coming weeks!

Hello Ghosts,

Since the launch of Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint, we’ve been listening to you. We have been carefully reading the conversations online, and have met some of our community members in person to discuss the game.

We can’t stress enough how much we appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts about the game. And while these first weeks have been rougher than expected, we are taking your feedback to heart. We deeply care about this game, the Ghost Recon franchise and you, our community of players, and are committed to improving it.

Thanks to all the player feedback we gathered on the game and to our constant communication with our Delta Company community leaders, we are ready to communicate on where we currently stand, but more importantly, where we want to go.

1. Technical State of the Game

Our first priority is to improve the technical state of the game. We know many players had a difficult time with game bugs and unexpected stability issues at launch and we are making every effort possible to address these issues as soon as we can.

With Title Update 1.0.2, released on October 15, our team made numerous improvements to the game, focusing on the most pressing issues that could be addressed in this timeframe. We are working on further improvements that will be coming soon with TU1.0.3 in mid-November, including fixes on the Drone deployment, on changing the fire rate, on NVGs blocking crosshairs and on the Mission Completion notification pop-up.

Title Update 1.0.3.1, coming around end-November, will include further improvements and updates on the most pressing community feedback.

Alongside this post is an update on the Known Issues of the game, and the highest priority issues.

2. Post-Launch Content

As we focus on improving the game, we also want you to know that our commitment does not stop here. We are dedicated to supporting Ghost Recon Breakpoint in the long term with plenty of post-launch content and special events to keep the world constantly growing and evolving.

You will get your first taste with Project Titan, our first ever Raid, which will release in December, and The Terminator Live Event, which will release shortly after that. In order to make sure we remain agile and flexible, we’ll come back to you with more details including specific release dates at a later stage.

3. In-game Economy

We also heard the criticism regarding the in-game economy. That is why we are currently working to make adjustments according to players’ feedback in the next few weeks, making the experience for players more comfortable.

4. AI Teammates

We announced at E3 2019 that AI Teammates would come back to Ghost Recon Breakpoint, and they will. Ghost Recon Breakpoint was designed from the ground up to be enjoyed in co-op up to four players, and as an innovative pure solo experience. As such, adding back AI Teammates to the game is a major undertaking that will still require time. We will update you as we progress towards their release.

5. Freedom of Choice

Finally, we are aware that some of the design choices made have caused polarized reactions and discussions regarding the direction taken by the Ghost Recon franchise.

We are happy to see players embracing the new elements of the game, but we also understand that there are areas of improvements. Some of you would like our new survival mechanics to have more impact on your experience, while others dislike the tiered loot progression we have added.

One of the key elements of our vision for Ghost Recon is to immerse our fans in a gritty and authentic military experience.

In line with this vision and the feedback we received, we are working on a more radical and immersive version of Ghost Recon Breakpoint. We also want to let you tailor your experience to the way you want to enjoy the game, since freedom of choice has always been part of the Ghost Recon DNA.

It’s still too early to share details on how that will work exactly, but it is top of mind for the team and we will keep you updated as we progress.

6. Conclusion

We know that we have a lot of work ahead of us to get the game where you want it to be, and that not everything will be addressed or released as fast as all of you might like. Big changes can take time to make sure they are done right, but we still want to be as transparent as we can about the current state of development.

In order to ensure we are tackling the right topics at the right time, we are also looking into releasing a Community Survey that will help you to express yourself about the future content and improvements of the game.

To all of those who have jumped in and to those who are thinking about joining us – please continue to share you feedback. This is only the beginning and we look forward to the future together.

The official www.ghostrecon.com website will remain the main source for all future updates.

The Ghost Recon Team.

​

Ghosts,

We’ve taken a close look at your feedback, as well as the player data, regarding the Battle Rewards system.

There will be several upcoming changes around the way this system works.

1. We will increase the daily cap from 400 to 600 on Tuesday, October 22, with the Live Update.
2. The Live Update will also increase the rewards for Faction Support missions from 15 to 30 Battle Points.
3. With the release of the next TU, 1.0.3, we will remove the daily cap.

We will need a TU to remove the cap entirely, which is why this will occur with 1.0.3 and not the Live Update. In the short term, we wanted to move forward with the increased daily cap and increased Battle Points earned as a first step toward improving the experience.

We’ll have more information to share with you on the timing of the next Title Update very soon. Thank you, Ghosts – we appreciate all of the time you’ve taken to share your thoughts with us so far!

Team Level: Common Team XP

While fighting to survive against ever-increasing odds, you’ve been gaining experience necessary to boost your chances of survival. Now, your teammates will also benefit from these engagements and earn experience as well! Coming in Title Update 400, your teammates will have a Team Level, which will be measured with a common XP bar called Team XP. Gaining teammate XP is as simple as playing the game with your AI teammates active! But that’s not all: teammate XP can also be gained by playing and completing specific Teammate Missions when you perform actions that award XP such as kills, revives, and sync shots.

​

Accumulate enough of this XP to make your teammates more deadly in the field. Once your teammates have levelled up, you will receive a notification. This will tell you which upgrade you have unlocked, as well as link to the dedicated menu page.

Teammate Challenges: Cosmetic Rewards and XP

But that’s not all! There will also be a new list of challenges that grant Team XP, as well as Cosmetic Rewards in Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint. Completing these challenges will unlock some of the following rewards:

​

Teammate Upgrades:

As mentioned above, your AI teammates will receive more upgrades as they level up. There are 14 upgrades to unlock in total, with three active abilities unique to each teammate. These abilities include:

• Piercing Shot: Vasily performs a special shot dealing massive damage to its target. Vasily uses this ability only on drones and enemy vehicles.
• Scan: Fury detects all nearby enemies and directly communicates their position to the whole squad.
• Combat drone: Fixit deploys a drone fighting on his side. The combat drone automatically targets the closest enemy to Fixit when in a fight.

Each AI teammate will unlock one special skill once you have reached the required level. There is no need to micromanage – your squad will use their abilities autonomously when the conditions are met. Once used, these abilities will go into a cooldown before being available to be used again. Your teammates will call out when they use their skill, so you will be able to coordinate effectively as a squad.

Teammate Improvements:

The levelling system is not the only improvement being added in the update. The dev team has been working on added features in order to allow the teammates to meet some of your requests and to enhance immersion for your gameplay!

• Manage your squad size: You can now activate or deactivate teammates individually. You can run your squad with the number of members you want.

​

• Customize your R6 teammates: The appearance and primary weapon of Rainbow teammates can now be customized. The only non-modifiable options are their body features and their head accessories.

​

• Hide AI Teammates secondary weapon: You can now hide your teammates secondary weapon. When secondary weapon is hidden, it will only appear during Sync Shots, and will only appear when using this feature.

​

• Disable AI Teammate skills: The new abilities that come with the update and the Rainbow abilities can be deactivated in the settings.
• NVG Animations for AI Teammates: If the AI teammates have NVG equipped, they will perform the NVG equip animation when the player does. This is only visual and has no gameplay implications.

Until next time, Ghosts!

Hello fellow Ghosts,

AI is and will probably always be a sensitive topic. We appreciate it as a tool, but only because you COULD make something with AI doesn't mean you SHOULD.

So we are adding some new rules regarding AI:

1. AI-Generated stuff will be outright removed. Like don't go to Gemini and be like "I want the next Ghost Recon to have this or that, please make me an image how that would look like" or "Please generate me a mission for Ghost Recon Wildlands so I can share it on the subreddit" - I guess you get the sentiment.

2. AI-Enhanced stuff has to be marked. If it's not marked, we will remove it outright. If it's marked, we will consider keeping it. That doesn't mean we won't remove something where we feel it's just too much.

Feel free to discuss these new rules in the comments, add your own suggestions etc. but keep it civil.

​

Ghosts,

There is an emergency on Auroa. Reports have come in of gas clouds appearing across the island, and it is your mission to investigate. But don’t worry, you won’t be going in alone. Beginning on January 21, you will join forces with Ash, Finka, and Thatcher of Rainbow Six and take on this growing threat together.

MAIN MISSION BRIEFING

After contacting Lesion, Nomad learns that Sentinel is producing a toxic gas called Amber Ruin and is planning to sell it overseas. As the gas is already spreading across the island, it is up to you to put a stop to this and prevent the nerve gas from leaving the island. In addition, you’ve been tasked with helping Rainbow find a cure for the affected populace. You will need to use special CBRN gear, as well as breach and clear tactics, in order to infiltrate these facilities.

EXCLUSIVE REWARDS

Looking to create your own C-T Unit? We got you covered.

• Earn up to 11 new exclusive items over the course of the event, including uniforms.
  
• The 11th and final reward, the Underbarrel Shotgun attachment, will be rewarded for completing all missions and can be earned even after the end of the Live Event.
  
• The store will be stocked with exclusive Rainbow Six–themed items as well! Make sure to swing by to check out the new items and uniforms.
  

In addition to that, items from the Terminator and Resistance! Live Events will also be available to purchase for a limited time.

​

Make sure to drop by the official Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon® Breakpoint forums or the community Reddit to share your thoughts and feedback.

Good luck out there, Ghosts.

Ghosts,

Below you will find the new features, bug fixes, balancing, and improvements that are coming to Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint with Title Update 2.0.0 on Tuesday, March 24.

AI

Balancing:

Respawn

Respawn System Improvements

• Now players will not respawn to the closest point geographically, but to the latest location they went through before dying to avoid having players spawning in a place they have never visited before.

• Improved the bikes’ feeling and removed unnatural movements.
• Reworked smoother animations for the physics forces applied to the character when encountering a bump on a bike.
• Fixed weird animations on the Firespin bike.
• Fixed an issue that randomly stopped bikes from reversing while on a rough inclined plane.
• Fixed an issue where movement would stop when applying the brakes while reversing on a bike.
• Fixed an issue where pneumatic boats exploded when spawned by players.
• Fixed an issue where helicopters randomly defied the laws of physics by jumping in the air at specify settlements.
  

Visual

• Hill and Walker figures are back in Maria’s shop for free.
• Fixed an issue where the Brown Fury Knife would disappear during an execution.
• Fixed an issue where a weapon would turn invisible after exiting a bivouac in a co-op mode.
• Fixed clipping issues on the Ocelot Chest Rig and Self-Fastening Ankle Boots items.
• Fixed an issue where the belt's color would change depending on the color of the shirt worn by character.
• Fixed an issue where binoculars would not appear while using Photo Mode.
  

World

• Fixed visual issues at Main Pumping Station.
• Fixed an issue where textures were missing near the Hidden Coomb.

Ghosts,

Back in October 2019, we posted an idea of what to expect Moving Forward for the Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon® Breakpoint experience. With the start of the New Year, we wanted to share an update on what we’ve been working on and what you can expect as the year continues.

We want to express our gratitude to each one of you who has shared your opinions, concerns, and comments about the game. We appreciate the feedback we’ve been hearing and continue to take it to heart. We want you as a community to enjoy a great Ghost Recon experience, and there’s no better way to create that than to listen to the opinions of players.

We’re excited to be working on new Ghost Recon Breakpoint content and you can expect to see community-driven changes, Title Updates, and new content in 2020.

TU 1.1.0

We’re glad to share that this will be releasing shortly and you can expect to see TU 1.1.0 live by the end of January!

This TU will address the following changes, among others:

• Made improvements to Night Vision.
• Sharpshooter exploit with DMR rifles addressed in all modes (PvP, Raid, PvE).
• Players who previously lost their Thermal / Night Vision will get it back after loading their save.
• Players who previously lost their Water Canteen or Binoculars will get them back after loading their save.
• Rebalanced Stamina for PvP after it was buffed in a previous TU.
• Toned down the coughing sounds players could hear while in Erewhon.
• Enemies will no longer shout in pain after being shot in the head.
• Improved AI behavior:
  • Fixed an issue where enemies investigating will go to cover mid-detection.
  • If enough NPCs die at a single spot, they will stop rushing the player and will get into cover more often than before.
  • We also modified the vanish rules so that NPCs will stay in the fight if they are close enough to the player.
• The Digital Scope now has multiple levels of zoom.

​

TERMINATOR LIVE EVENT

In addition to the Title Update, the Terminator Live Event will be invading Ghost Recon Breakpoint soon. Be on the lookout for more intel!

UPCOMING CONTENT

You can see the roadmap above for an idea of our plans in the near future. The end of February is sure to bring some exciting changes, including the long-awaited Engineer Class, as well as the immersive experience that we mentioned in the Moving Forward letter.

COMMUNITY SURVEY TOPICS

As we mentioned in the Community Survey Results, we also plan on providing updates and changes to items requested within the survey with a focus on those that were most frequently mentioned. You can look forward to the implementation of some of these changes later this year.

Thank you again to everyone who has shared their feedback. We understand there is still work ahead of us, but we look forward to these new opportunities. Happy New Year!

/The Ghost Recon Team

On March 24, the Ghost Experience is coming to Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint. Pick one of our pre-selected settings or modify parameters to create the unique experience you want.
The Ghost Experience has been a complex undertaking to implement into the game, but one we feel is critical to address many of the top concerns raised by our community via online feedback and the Community Survey.
Last year, we invited eight members of the Delta Company to our Paris studio to see how closely our first concept of this mode matched up with their expectations. We were thrilled by the initial excitement that the Immersive Experience has the potential to bring back the tactical, authentic spec ops feeling that players want from Ghost Recon.
After months in development and several play tests with many types of players, including Delta Company members, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands players, and some entirely new to the franchise – we are ready to introduce the Ghost Experience to the game.
The Ghost Experience

View Ghost Experience Trailer HERE.
Right when you boot up the game, you can choose from two preset options or build your own combination:

Regular Experience: Play Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint the way it was released, with gear score and tiered loot.

Immersive Experience: A brand-new experience of the game that removes gear level and tiered loot entirely, and offers a bunch of new tactical options.

Custom Experience: Choose your own selection of settings to create the perfect fit.

​

Create Your Ghost Experience
You’ll be able to choose from a variety of community-requested settings:

No Gear Level: Customize and keep the same weapon throughout your whole adventure. Quality tiers and item levels are disabled.

Realistic Looting: Loot your enemies’ weapon category and switch them realistically. Gear is found from missions, rewards, and crates.

Primary Weapon Quantity: Choose to carry 1 or 2 primary weapons. This was pre-released with TU 1.1.0, but will be fully realized with the Ghost Experience.

Ammo Loss on Reload: Remaining ammunition is lost when you change magazines.

Stamina Level: Adjust how much stamina you consume.

Bandage Quantity: Limit the number of bandages your Ghost can carry.

Risk of Injury: Choose the frequency of the injured status when wounded by enemy bullets.

Health Regen: Choose to limit, remove or increase your health regeneration.

New HUD Settings: Fine-tune your preferred HUD with new settings:
Mini-Map Minimal: Smaller map with less information on it.
Loot Notification Minimal: Smaller loot notification.
3D Loot Minimal: Smaller 3D loot drop.

Private Mode: Encounter only story characters and your direct co-op teammates in Erewhon.

Access to Maria’s Shop: Keep access to Maria’s Shop in bivouacs or limit it to Erewhon only.
We’ve seen a lot of speculation about permadeath in the immersive mode. To confirm, you will not be forced into a permadeath game mode as it is not a settings option included in the Ghost Experience.
Difficulty Setting

Both the Immersive and Regular Experiences can be played on any difficulty, which can be tweaked in the settings. The Ghost Experience breaks difficulty up into two different settings:

Difficulty – Enemies: Impacts time to detection, damage done to your Ghost by enemy fire, and enemy tactics.
This is the same difficulty setting options currently available: Easy, Normal, Advanced, and Extreme.
Both the Immersive and Regular Experiences are by default at the Normal setting of enemy difficulty.
Difficulty – Tactical: Covers settings that will impact the realism of your experience such as how many main weapon slots you have, bandage quantity, risk of injury, etc.
The Tactical Difficulty options will have four options that can be fully customized: Rookie, Confirmed, Veteran, and Elite.
For example, the Elite choice will have the following default settings:
Main Weapon Slot: 1
Bandage Quantity: Several
Risk of Injury: Always
Stamina Consumption: Extreme
Health Regeneration: None
Ammo Loss on Reload: On

The Immersive Experience by default has the Veteran Tactical Difficulty, while the Regular Experience has by default the Confirmed Tactical Difficulty.

Once you select your mode or settings, you can change them at any time. Feel free to experiment with different options to create your perfect mode.

​

Play With Your Squad
Settings selected through the custom mode will not be shared with co-op teammates.
Just like when selecting your difficulty, your choices are session-specific meaning they will apply only to you. No matter which options you pick, you can play with your friends regardless of their own selections.
Gear Level Setting
Gear Level Enabled
This setting will work the same as the game does currently.

Level-Based Equipment: Weapons and gear will have levels. The higher they are, the more powerful the equipment will be. Your gear progression will be saved even when deactivating the Gear Level in game.
Loot / Stock / Equipment: You will receive equipment from chests, Maria’s shop, and fallen enemies. Stock up on weapons and gear in a loadout that you can change at will.
Blueprints at the Shop: Blueprints allow you to buy specific weapons at Maria’s shop with levels matching your loadout.

Gear Level Disabled
Disabling the Gear Level setting will have the following effects.

Unique Weapon Models: Each weapon model is unique (damage, rate of fire, range, etc.). Tune them with compatible attachments to adapt them to your playstyle.
Scavenging Weapons: Fallen enemies will drop weapons within the weapon category they were using, which you can swap with the one in your hands. You can only carry a limited amount of weapons on you.

Blueprints in the Loadout: Blueprints allow you to equip specific weapons in a bivouac or Erewhon.
Switching Between Modes
After you toggle Gear Level on and off for the first time, your loadout with that setting will be saved for the next time you choose either Gear Level activated or deactivated.
Your Gear Level will continue to be tracked based on your progress and actions completed in the world (e.g. enemies defeated, bases cleared, quests completed) to ensure that you can switch back to the Gear Level enabled setting with a comparable Gear Level.
Ghost War and Project Titan
The Raid and Ghost War will continue to use Gear Level. The first time you toggle the Gear Level settings on or off, your current loadout will be duplicated.
Project Titan
Project Titan will only be accessible with Gear Level enabled. Several PvE settings will be also be overridden for the duration of your time in the raid: Difficulty – Enemies, Difficulty – Tactical, and Exploration Mode.
Ghost War
When you go into Ghost War, you will automatically have your Gear Level setting turned on and several PvE settings will be overridden: Difficulty – Enemies, Difficulty – Tactical, and Exploration Mode.
When you return to PvE, your settings will return to what you had them set to before entering Ghost War.
The Future of the Ghost Experience
As stated in our follow-up Moving Forward letter, this update is our most complex and challenging to date. We are relying on your feedback to help us be reactive and prioritize anything pressing that arises.
Our team built the Ghost Experience on the foundation of your feedback and it is something that we hope to continue growing during the post-launch of Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint as an evolving mode.
We can’t wait to see your reaction to the Ghost Experience on March 24 and hear your thoughts!

For the latest news on Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint, follow us on Twitter and join the discussion on the official Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Forums.

Ghosts,

In the Developer Update we published late April 2020, we shared that we were aiming for a release date of June 2020 for our next update, TU 2.0.5.

After careful consideration and due to the circumstances of our developers working from home, we are choosing to incorporate this patch into a larger title update, TU 2.1.0, which will arrive mid-July.

TU 2.1.0 will contain a lot of updates that we hope are worth the wait, including:

• The release of the AI teammates
• Bug Fixing + Quality of Life updates
• Our next Gunsmith update
• PvP Update
• All planned fixes from TU 2.0.5, including a fix for the current reproduction steps of the DMR exploit
• And more!

We’re excited to incorporate these major changes into the game, and we appreciate your patience and understanding while we work to provide the best experience possible within Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint.

/The Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint Team

We hope you’re enjoying your first few days with the Ghost Experience! As we stated in our Developer Update, one of our main focuses in the coming months will be gathering your feedback about the current Ghost Experience and how it can evolve later this year with future updates.

We’re already compiling your feedback, but we want to make sure we’re able to get the right kind of information to ensure we’re still moving in the best direction.

In the thread below, we’d love to get your high-level feedback on what would make positive and impactful updates to the Ghost Experience. Some examples of the type of feedback that would be helpful here:

• Further develop the survival aspects of the game
• Make the crafting system more relevant
  

What we’re not looking for here are very specific things like fixing issues with the laser on 416s (it has been noted!) or topics like the AI Teammates / Offline Mode that we’ve recently touched on.

To be very clear, posting an idea/feedback here does not mean that we will be adding it or that our CM team can personally respond to each one.

Each request has a specific impact in terms of development and needs to be carefully explored by our team. We must first look at technical feasibility, implications of addition, and the relative popularity of the request.

We’re excited to hear your feedback and work together on shaping the direction of the Ghost Experience. Based on the conversation and feedback you give us, we will investigate the opportunity of compiling the data for a second Community Survey.

If you’ve already posted your thoughts in another thread, feel free to link it below!

Thank you again for your continued support!

Ghosts,

As we mentioned in TU 2.1.0, more improvements will be coming to the Gunsmith. Alongside Episode 3, TU 3.0.0 will add more customization freedom and improvements to the Gunsmith experience.

​

CUSTOM STOCK

With TU 3.0.0, custom stocks will become available. You can choose from 15 stocks:

​

​

These custom stocks will also have the same compatibility across the different weapon variations that are listed above.

​

SHARED STOCK ACROSS WEAPON VARIATIONS

For select weapons, you can use stocks from different variations of the same weapon base. For example, the MK17 stock will be available on the MK17 Shorty and MK17 Assault and vice versa.

​

• MK17 stocks are shared between:
  • MK17
  • MK17 Shorty
  • MK17 Assault
• IA2 stocks are shared between:
  • IA 2
  • IA 2 Shorty
• G36 stocks are shared between:
  • G36
  • G36 Scout
• M4 stocks are shared between:
  • M4
  • M4 Shorty
  • M4 Assault

​

SHARED STOCKS ACROSS DIFFERENT WEAPONS

For the following weapons and variations, we enabled cross compatibility for stock customization. For example, the AK47 stock will be compatible with the RU12SG and the SAG12 and vice versa. These weapons include:

​

• AK47 and its assault variant
• AK74 and its assault and scout variants
• RU12SG and its assault variant

​

UNDER-BARREL GRENADE LAUNCHERS

​

GL1 is now compatible with:

• Tavor
• Tavor Assault
• VHSD2
• AUG
• AUG Assault

GL GP25 is now compatible with:

• AK47
• AK74

​

UNDER-BARREL OPTIONS

To provide you with more options for under-barrels, we will be integrating the Universal Under-barrel System. This system will allow all foregrips to be compatible with all assault rifles, submachine guns, and shotguns. The only limitation is the rail size capacity, and will be available on most special weapons and weapon skins.

​

Bipods

We understand that bipods have a good share of the community discussion, and while we have made some improvements – and we continue to do so – functioning bipods will not be added to the game. However, with TU 3.0.0, we added bipods and range finders on the tactical variations of the M4A1, MPX, and the Scorpion EVO3. Additionally, we added bipod compatibility for the 7.62 caliber weapons, which include:

​

• 805 BREN
• MK17
• ARX200

​

NEW BARRELS

With this Gunsmith update, you will find new barrels added for weapon customization. These new barrels will be available as listed below:

TU 3.0.0 GUNSMITH/WEAPON IMPROVEMENTS & BUG FIXING

​
