Ghost Recon Wildlands Update 1.15 is now available for download. According to the official patch notes, Ghost Recon Wildlands 1.15 includes new PVP features as well as a new game mode called Uplink. The Uplink is a 4v4 objective-based mode where teams compete to control and defend an access point in the center of the map.
In addition, the Ghost Recon Wildlands version 1.15 also includes five new maps, three of which were specifically designed for Uplink, and also introduces a new PVP class called the Disruptor. A support player equipped with jamming devices, the Disruptor can interfere with the enemy team’s markers, mini-map information, and notifications. As a counter-balance, Disruptors cannot mark enemies or send pings to teammates.
Five additional free PVP updates will be coming to Ghost Recon Wildlands, including Jungle Storm, Extended Ops, New Assignment, Reinforcement, and Bravo 6. Like Interference, these updates will contain a mixture of new classes, new maps, new modes, and gameplay tweaks.
Ghost Recon Wildlands Update 1.15 Patch Notes
Perks
- Thermal Goggles – This perk proved more powerful than intended and, beyond that, was having a negative impact on the experience, even for players using it successfully. Reducing the visibility of opponents would have brought it to the other end of the spectrum, into complete irrelevance. In order to allow it to be viable, but more niche, the Ghost Recon Wildlands Update 1.15 moved it to the Support category, and made it only usable while in a drone. It has traded places with the Quick Hands perk, which is now available to all classes.
Classes
- Disruptor – This new Assault class has been added to the game with latest Ghost Recon Wildlands 1.15 patch. The Disruptor jams enemies around him, removing their access to the mini-map and their ability to see marks. Season Pass owners will have immediate access to the class, while the other players will be able to purchase the Disruptor with Prestige Credits after a small period of Season Pass exclusivity.
- Sniper – With Ghost Recon Wildlands Update version 1.15, the damage from the Sniper’s rifles has been reduced so that enemies with HP over 120% can survive a body shot. We also eliminated the mine from its loadout.
- Assault classes – Most assault classes now have a 30% HP bonus with the latest Ghost Recon Wildlands Update 1.15 that allows them to survive a Sniper shot. This includes the Pointman, the Tech, and the new Disruptor class. The Tank retains its specifically high HP, while the Assassin, a stealth class that should avoid being seen, does not get an HP bonus. To slightly balance the HP increase, the unlockable HP bonus of the Assault category has been decreased from 15 to 10.
- Enforcer – The Enforcer now has access to the versatile EXPS & G33 scope, which can change between two different levels of zoom on the fly. A unique “suppressed” feedback has been added on enemies affected by the Enforcer. The Wildlands 1.15 also fixed a bug that made it impossible to suppress multiple enemies at the same time. A handy Enforcer should now be able to keep multiple enemies in check.
- Ranger – The Ranger hasn’t been able to find its place in the game yet and it is mostly picked as a second, less effective Sniper. In order to increase its impact in close quarter battles, we have given the Ranger a 50% boost to stamina and slightly increased the effectiveness of the PSG submachine gun.
- Recruit – Ghost Recon Wildlands Update 1.15 removed the drone from its loadout.
- Sentinel – Wildlands Update 1.15 improved the Sentinel interface, making it easier for the Sentinel to set up trackers and allowing teammates to see where the trackers are placed.
- Diversionist – The Diversionist’s stealth drone battery life is now increased.
Maps
- Quarry – The southern spawn point has been moved forward so that both teams can reach the map’s key locations at the same time. Some more cover was also added to the Ghost Recon Wildlands Update 1.15 in the central area, to make flanking more viable.
- Dust Town – Streamlined the map layout and removed from play a portion of the map that was too easily defensible.
- Coca Farm – This map has been removed from the Quickplay rotation for the time being. It is still accessible in Custom Match.
Weapons
- Loadout options – Most classes now have a wider variety of handguns available to choose from. Alternate with Ghost Recon Wildlands version 1.15, scope attachments have also been added. Each class can select from a number of equivalent scopes, so players can choose one they find comfortable without impacting the class balance.
- Suppressors – Removed the damage reduction from having a suppressor equipped.
- Holster – The ability to holster weapons was removed from Ghost War.
Game Modes
- Uplink – This new game mode has been added to the game, with four new maps: Burnt-out, Oil Rush, Sub Factory, and Warehouse in Uplink, teams fight over a centrally located access point.
Elimination – With Ghost Recon Wildlands version 1.15, the original deathmatch-style mode for Ghost War is now named Elimination. Two new maps have been added to this mode: Farm Town and Cartel Depot.
Other Improvements
- New camo packs and class packs are available in the Store.
- Leaving ongoing Quick Play matches will now lead to time-out penalties. Players will be notified beforehand of upcoming penalties.
