Special Operation 4 Patch Notes

Tomorrow our last update of Year 2 will be released: Special Operation 4.

This update will be available on PC, PlayStation®4, and Xbox One. The size of the patch will be 19.7 GB on PC. Please note that you will need to restart and update your platform to be able to play online.

Free PvE Mode: Guerrilla

Test your endurance with our brand-new PvE mode: Guerrilla. In Guerrilla Mode you and up to 3 friends will face waves of Cartel and Unidad members. With each round, the forces rallying against you will grow deadlier as you gather resources to defend key locations.

Before each wave starts, you will enter a preparation phase in which you can strategically chose your weapons and attachments. These can be upgraded by collecting gear by defeating enemies and exchanging the gear with the shopkeeper.

Completing waves will grant you XP, Tier points, and Prestige Credits as well as an exclusive gear set the first time you beat all 25 waves.

New Class

Sapper

The Sapper is a new Support class option. His primary weapons are the TAR-21 and 9x19 VSN. Sappers can deploy a specialized drone that shoots "concussion" mines. These mines drain stamina from players and suppresses them, slowing down their rush.

New Maps

There will be two new maps added to Ghost War.

Gas Station

A Santa Blanca gas station currently under construction at the bottom of the forest valley in South Libertad.

The map has light forest vegetation cover, with a spacious building complex near the center. Long lines of sight are available for marksmen to scope enemies from afar, whilst buildings provide cover for assault and support classes.

Airbase

A Unidad helibase located in Eastern Koani.

The elevation of this map offers some exciting opportunities for gameplay. This map provides something for every class: long sightlines for Marksmen, flanking opportunities for stealth classes, and a variety of interior obstacles that force thrilling CQC gunplay for the Assault and Support classes.

PvP Event

Two new events will be added to the rotation: Arms Race and Danger Zone.

The duration of the events will be reduced from 60 hours to 36 hours.

Heatmap
