Ubisoft brengt vandaag een nieuwe update voor Ghost Recon: Breakpoint uit en die komt met een forse lijst aan patch notes. De update is ook niet klein, want de download is 11.3GB groot.

Eén van de belangrijkste punten is dat spelers nu vanaf het begin meer keuze krijgen in het customizen van de Ghosts. Ook worden er een paar grote bugs aangepakt en diverse andere kleine issues worden opgelost.

Voor alle specifieke details kun je het onderstaande overzicht raadplegen.

Patch Highlights

Customization
Since the launch of the game, we’ve been following the feedback regarding the availability of customization at the beginning and throughout the game.

We are happy to announce that based on this feedback, we have implemented the following changes.

To improve the experience of all players at the beginning of the game and to allow them to start creating their own Ghost, we’ve unlocked by default 40 items that previously needed to be looted or purchased with Skell Credits:

  • 5 vests (5.11 TACTEC Plate Carrier, 5.11 VTAC LBE, Blackhawk STRIKE Cutaway, Crye AVS1000, Blackhawk Strike Shoulder Pad)
  • 5 pants (5.11 Apex, 5.11 Tactical Stryke Pant, Jeans, Cargo, Chino)
  • 5 headgear (Crye Airframe, Reversed Cap, Military Cap, Berret, ACH Helmet)
  • 2 gloves (S&S WetWorX, S&S WetWorX Assault)
  • 4 boots (Under Armour Alegent, Under Armour Valsetz RTS, Under Armour Speed Freek, Under Armour Shoes Infiltrator)
  • 4 gear paints (Gray Solid, Red Solid, Blue Solid, Coyote Brown Solid)
  • 1 shirt (Vasily Sniper)
  • 1 eyewear (Gatorz Magnum Sunglasses)
  • 1 karambit (Casper)
  • 4 emotes (Shotgun, Pistol, Rifle, Sniper)
  • 4 emblems (Red Fox, Lion, Grizzly Bear, Golden Eagle)
  • 4 card banners (Urban Tech, Mountain, Swamp, Coastal)

To give players more freedom in their appearance options, players are now able to change their gender and face selection at any time in the Customization menu.
We’ve heard your feedback loud and clear! Our team has started to make improvements on adaptive magazine pouches on tactical vests. This will now work with many vests and primary weapon magazines excluding assault rifles, shotguns, grenade launchers, and some snipers.

The remaining assault rifles, sniper rifles, shotguns, and grenade launchers, along with the following vests variations, will be added in a future TU:

  • A.L.I.C.E Chest Rig
  • Commissar Coat | Sharpshooter
  • Cross-draw Vest
  • Drone Operator Light Vest
  • Flayed Vest | Panther
  • Golem Cape | Field Medic
  • Judge Plate | Assault
  • Silverback Vest
  • Walker Vest

Please note that “named” vests (Fury, Rosebud, and Yellowleg vests) are unique cosmetics that will not change with your equipped weapon.
