Thank you for sharing this!! This looks interesting. I am glad to see there is a PvE component.

I honestly expected absolutely no info for a long time, surprised they properly announced it this time

Yep, it's at least something official. So it has become really likely that Heartland will actually launch. And maybe even somewhen in the near future.

Alas, since I am not too interested in the PvEvP experience (especially not in the way TD2 incorporated it) I am still not too excited about this game. Although they again mention a pure PvE mode... but it still sounds to me like a rather one-dimensional intro mission for preparing players and their characters for the real (!) Heartland experience – the PvEvP Storm mode.

@noxious81 It's honestly more akin to a PVP tag really, should be same map but storm protocol is always raining for low visibility, PVP enabled and harder and unique enemies more akin to old survival. Regular expedition game should just remove the stuff mentioned previously (not sure about the weather).

The biggest change really is how it's closer to a ghost recon game in terms of gameplay and less RPG stuff

From an updated preview, it said that players in Excursion would have access to the entire map which is said to be large to farm and loot for guns and gear to use in Storm. How many missions is to be seen but probably not many and no campaign, but, I would be interested in running an open world looter tango hunt. No word on the difficulty levels if any and if loot increases with same. Without increasing difficulty levels, there would be no long term playability. I don't remember anything about coop in Excursion but increasing levels of challenge are needed. Otherwise, it is something to play for a while and uninstall.

@xcel30 and the page is down. perhaps a glitch in the matrix? Sites-uk_ubisoft-Site

@chacachaca88 They probably just uploaded too soon and forgot to make it hidden from users

We still have the images and info from the page so it doesn't matter.

In all honesty i don't think it's my cup of tea but what the hell....It's FREE so no loss if good or bad.

I'm more busy playing The Witcher 3 on new game plus mode.......it's a fix for now for my loot addiction.
