GAME MODES

Ghost Recon Wildlands Update 1.20 added a new game mode called Sabotage, available in both Quickplay and Ranked playlists.

Sabotage

In Sabotage, teams take turns in defending or attacking two radio transmitters. The attackers must activate one radio transmission and defend it until it finishes, while the defenders must either stop the transmission or prevent the activation in the first place.

MAPS

The Sabotage game mode comes with 5 new maps: Library, Zinc Mine, Unidad F.O.B., Trainyard, and Rocha. They are all available for both Quickplay and Ranked modes.

CLASSES

Ghost Recon Wildlands version 1.20 added a new Assault class called Echelon. This is available one-week early with the Year 2 Pass, and can also be purchased with Prestige Credits.

Echelon: The Echelon Class is equipped with Ultra High Frequency Sonar Goggles, standard equipment to Fourth Echelon agents. When activated, it sends sonar pulses that reveal enemy players in his vicinity for a short time. This allows the Echelon to gain tactical advantage over its enemies, especially when used under low-visibility situations like nighttime or inside smoke clouds. Also, the ability’s range is greatly reduced while moving, so keep still for maximum effect. The Echelon also comes equipped with the brand new proximity mines.

New Echelon Class – Ghost Recon WildLands Update 1.20

Medic: Replaced the Medic’s mines with flashbangs.

Tech: Replaced the Tech’s C4 with proximity mines.

Pointman: Reduced the damage output of his ACR and AK-12 by small amounts to bring them to a similar level and balance the class.

PERKS

Introduced one new Marksman perk called Hollow Point Ammo.

Hollow Point Ammo: The Hollow Point Ammo perk applies bleeding damage over time, for 90 seconds, with every bullet hit. If the enemy is already affected by it, every bullet that hits will refresh the duration. Additionally, while the effect is active, Battle Rage and Adrenaline Rush will not regenerate health. Interacting with a supply crate will remove the bleeding effect.

RANKED

Rating Decay: We’ve introduced Rating Decay which applies when players are not participating in Ranked matches for a set amount of time. The decay makes a player’s rating go down on a daily basis which often leads to rank demotion, though it stops applying for players that are Silver or Bronze. To prevent this from happening, players must be active in Ranked matches on a regular basis.

Rewards: Ghost Recon Wildlands 1.20 increased the amount of Prestige Credits that are awarded at the end of the season.

OTHER IMPROVEMENTS

Proximity Mine: Ghost Recon Wildlands patch 1.20 introduced a new type of explosive device, favored by Fourth Echelon agents, called a Proximity Mine. Similar to the C4, it can be attached to walls and other surfaces, and detonates when detecting an enemy in proximity. It cannot be defused and the damage it deals is lower than a regular mine.

Tutorials: The Tutorials page has been re-worked for better visibility and quicker navigation between pages of interest, removing the need to cycle between all pages to reach a certain tutorial.
