It's been roughly a century since I last played and now there's a bunch of Episodes, which is fine. It says I should play the them in sequence, but the later missions are clogging up Éowyn (I started a new save). Should I just talk to the guy on the radio and mister sick boy to get it out of the way?

You should be fine if you want to do them. I did all three episodes well before finishing the main plot and it didn't matter a bit.

Yeah it's not like the plot matters at all. When I played it the first time, I saw like three different people in cutscenes post their violent mortem because of shuffled missions. The facial mocap is good though, and they've really done a great job at making the cutscenes evoke dumb thrillers with moody, growly operators.

If all I have the base version of breakpoint am I locked out of anything? I know there were season passes but I never understood what they did and stopped playing after beating the punisher and basically clearing that board.

Hey remember this game? Operation Motherland is called a "Title Update" so it might be free? Something about helping the leader of the Outcasts make Auroa an independent nation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ew4iYentkVg Also some new F2P 100+ player game which looks like Ghost Recon Warzone https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ilO7FpBmQ1s Also free original GR game, and the Fallen Ghost DLC for Wildlands for free (PC only) https://twitter.com/GhostRecon/status/1445478904303525889 Roman fucked around with this message at 21:07 on Oct 5, 2021 |

Looks like the new game is entirely a first person perspective now? Looks like the same engine and everything though so that's neat, it's a pretty game engine IMO.

I don’t think I’ll ever stop bitching about this game’s slow trace round graphics lagging behind the game’s actual hitscan rounds, and not being able to holster your weapons. This game has such a great foundation but those details just kill the whole thing.

So wait, Frontline is... NOT a battle royale? Extraction seems maybe more like a giant GR version of the Division's Dark Zone? You can "win in multiple ways." So a team extracting isn't the end of the game? They really need to elaborate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPoo_7SgyhU

I gave up on this game ages ago but I bought a month of ubisoft connect to play far cry 6 (for about 30 mins) so I'm gonna give this Motherland update a try because it actually looks pretty cool. I think it comes out in a couple of hours? Is there gonna be a new option in the main menu to start the new mode or what? It's not locked behind any base game stuff I hope. I don't think I have a save game unless ubi stored it, and I never got very far anyway.

I noticed that list doesn’t include a couple things: 1. Still can’t holster weapons like in Wildlands, which would draw the camera back for better situational awareness when exploring, along with just making good thematic sense. 2. Fired rounds are still hitscan (bullet drop is accounted for but it’s all calculated instantly) but tracer effects are still slow as hell so if you like sniping then you’ll still be seeing bullet impact splashes happen well before the “bullet” gets there.

Saves are cloud stored so you should be able to resume unless ubisoft connect doesn't keep those for you? episodic content prior to this (stuff like Amber Sky) was all launched from picking a menu option -- if I had to guess they'll be reusing that, but I don't know for sure. there's an ACR Brown skin as a twitch drop if you watch a drops-enabled streamer for 30 minutes and also some #hashtag loot redemption code thing for ingame cosmetics I think? I don't know but I looked at the tag on twitter and it's nothing but giveaway "follow, retweet, and tag a friend" boosting so nah e: 47 gig download, okay I missed that part. good thing I started this early Psion fucked around with this message at 16:39 on Nov 2, 2021 |

Played a little bit. It's still Breakpoint so nobody's going to do a 180 on this game, but it's much better Breakpoint. Refined, if you will. Yes it still has Breakpoint's fundamental flaws but it makes better use of the game's strengths, too. that's the one sentence review so there you go, but details: Focusing mission chains into one geographic area means the tempo is much better; more time doing things and less traveling. Missions or sub-objectives are frequently close enough just taking a car and driving is faster than going to find your helicopter again, plus I'm exploring areas of the map I've never bothered to see before. So far, really good reuse of the map. New enemies add needed variety there. Downside, well, it's Ubi so collectibles (you guessed it) ... specifically, there's tons of new chests scattered around to unlock upgrade points for the optical camo. Hoping they put down an excess of chests vs points needed, because the idea of scouring the entire island does not fill me with joy. The IR illuminator is kinda interesting but it seems to stay on forever, even when a gun is holstered -- which is hilarious that you have an IR spotlight under your rear end, but also it needs an on/off switch. Squad voice barks could do with some work, mission description text needs a copy edit. Little things like that, mostly. e: lol at one of Nomad's new voice lines though. Let's just say Bowman isn't the only returning thing from Wildlands... Psion fucked around with this message at 06:07 on Nov 3, 2021 |

If Ubisoft are continuing to develop Ghost Recon games I’d like to see them use this TU as the template, if this mode brought in world parameters and the game had overall more deeper squad integration (enemy AI being able to see your squad members for example) it’d be a really solid experience. As it stands it’s still more breakpoint but it does feel refined, the story being stripped back works Still can’t believe this game launched originally with gear score

Unpopular opinion, but Breakpoint has evolved to be my favorite modern combat sandbox of all time. The story sucks, the characters suck, the Skell theme in general sucks, but... god drat if it isn't fun to roam around and make mischief (whether as part of a small/dynamic mission, or entirely on my own). Whether I'm going stealth or loud, the combat feels amazing, and there are always enough different ways to approach a situation that I never seem to get bored. I'm just diving into Homeland, but everything about it seems good so far. edit: I do wish the game would let me build a custom class (or, at least, mix and match skills). I'd love to be able to, say, use the good night vision on those stealth fuckers, without having to fully spec as a Pathfinder.

Came back to this for Conquest mode, which is really neat! What isn't neat however is this bizarre as gently caress problem I'm having: The game is interpreting random control inputs from something. I'm using a PS4 controller on my PC, and the game has native support for it so that shouldn't be an issue. But I'll be walking around and go prone. Or pull out my drone. Or open the map. Or open the objectives board. Or reload. Or activate my class power. This becomes WAY more frequent playing co-op with a buddy. I've disabled all keyboard keybinds. I've tried using DS4Windows. I've tried using a PS5 controller. I've tried using just mouse and keyboard. The problem persists no matter what I do, and the fact it gets worse in co-op is just the strangest poo poo I've encountered with a video game. This never happened when I played before

Finished Conquest the other day. A few things I learned: Behemoths are the way to go for optical camo unlocks; 1000 each for the most part. New enemies were a mixed bag - mostly good, though. The only real bust was the armored rocket guy, the others were all good at making things more interesting for both stealth and loud base takedowns. And there are some rude surprises to liven things up in the missions, which adds much needed variety. There's a secret mission with a reference I didn't expect, but it also leads to getting several 2 hour duration, 40% xp boost rations. I imagine that's the only way to get to 99 in any ... well, 'reasonable' timeframe? Unless there's some awesome xp farm I don't know? for me personally the smallest thing that still made me happy was getting the Future Soldier armor. Equipping that just felt good, but then I'm probably more of a GRFS fan than average. All in all I think my initial impressions hold out - it's a refined, better Breakpoint. Conquest is just long enough it'll probably sit on the edge of 'i want just a little bit more' or 'I wish I was done two zones ago' which is probably a sign they got the length just right.

I reinstalled this game last week for Conquest mode, did the first mission for it, and then decided to go back and finish up the campaign because I only had a few missions left. I took down Walker, then did the Ayana Purni/Josiah Hill mission. Then I got sent back to Walker's airfield and had to fight the behemoth again. At least I didn't have to do the Walker fight again: there were only like 4 Wolves inside the building. Push button, watch cutscenes. I liked that Mads' solution at the end was "gently caress it, shut up, let's have a drink." Then I did all of the Splinter Cell missions in a couple of play sessions because I hadn't done any of it before (made myself finish ep 1 first). Who the gently caress thought it was a good idea to cap a stealth-themed set of missions with an unavoidable fight in a tiny arena against the worst enemies in the game? I want the rest of their life to be a series of annoying inconveniences that just frustrates them to no end every loving day. They almost made up for it when Sam tells Nomad that Echelon "could use a real snake eater like you." I even did a little fist-pump and a "yesss!" because I'm a nerd who loves the little back-and-forth between Splinter Cell and Metal Gear. I'll probably skip episode 3 and go right to Conquest next because I don't really care about Trey Stone's bullshit, he seems like yet another totally-not-Erik Prince in the Tom Clancy-verse. He sounds like a magnificent rear end in a top hat, so he should be fun to listen to, unlike Skell and Walker and Mads and everyone else. Well, except Ito because she calls Nomad "Brute Squad" and I like that. And Conquest has more Ito so it's a win-win.
