[Ubisoft is] excited to say that with the release of TU (Title Update) 2.1.0 for Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint, players can expect to see the first phase of these changes!  Thanks to everyone who took the time to provide their feedback and suggestions, as [Ubisoft have] been busy implementing meaningful upgrades to the system.

TRIGGER CUSTOMIZATION

To improve customization in the Gunsmith, [Ubisoft] added more options for players to select their firing mode. This means that some burst/automatic weapons (like SMGs) will have the option for single fire/full auto, and some single fire/full auto weapons (like ASRs) will have a burst/automatic option. The mode you chose will not have an impact on the damage done — only the shots fired.

These new options will be directly available to all players once they have unlocked the associated weapon blueprints.

As a reminder:

• Single fire is one bullet fired per pressure on the trigger.
• Burst is three bullets fired per pressure on the trigger.

Below is the full list of SMGs that will have the option for single fire/full auto:

• MP5
• MP7
• MPX
• Scorpion EVO3 CQC
• Scorpion EVO3
• UMP
• Echelon SMG
• Vector
• Vector Shorty

Below is the full list of ASRs that will have an additional burst/automatic fire option:

• 416
• 416 Shorty
• 516
• 553
• 805 BREN
• A2
• AK12
• G36C
• M4A1
• MK17
• TAVOR
• VHSD2
• Silver Stake

FORE AND ANGLED GRIPS
