Massive GRAW Update Coming
At the end of June a HUGE update for the highly acclaimed Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter is coming according to reports. Ubisoft have said it will be availible over Xbox Live at the end of the month and will be called 'Chapter 2'
Here are some early details of the updates that i have found:
New co-op campaign missions:
Coffee Plantation (Day) - This takes place on a coffee plantation embedded deep in Nicaragua. The map is littered with good cover options that appear in the form of a centrally located plantation house, coffee processing equipment, growing coffee plants, and stacked bags of coffee beans ready for transport. The Ghosts' overall goal of this mission is to eliminate the arms dealer and shut down his operations.
New co-op mission Shipping Port
Shipping Port (Evening) - The next mission takes place at a shipping port and the Ghosts' objective is to stop the enemy from smuggling weapons into the country. The player will interact with rebel troops through warehouses, decks of ships, and on massive shipping cranes. This night mission provides an eerie backdrop for Ghosts to move in, take out the weapon shipments and ensure that the illegal smuggling of arms will stop.
New co-op mission River Depot
River Depot (Dawn) - This map puts the Ghosts in a jungle area that the Rebel forces have infiltrated and are using for storing and shipping out illegal weapons. The goal of the Ghosts is to secure the warehouse facility that holds crucial information concerning the placement and shipment of weapons. As the player weaves through the jungle and eliminates the patrols of enemies, they must also destroy all the weapon shipments and keep the Rebels from extracting from the area. Massive trees, loads of weapon shipments, and enemy transports are unique characteristics of this mission.
New co-op mission Jungle Mine
Jungle Mine (Day) - The last mission in this co-op campaign chapter takes place in a mine that is vital to the Rebel force's regime and the Ghosts are tasked with securing the area, destroying the weapons, and eliminating the Rebel leader. The central location on this map is the mine itself and it provides a place for multi-tiered gameplay surrounded by good cover. This mission provides a new gameplay experience for Ghost Recon fans and it will surely be one of the more memorable missions in GR history.
Eight revisited, relit maps for adversarial multiplayer - four of which are from the new co-op campaign extension:
Fishing Village (Dusk)
Wharf (Late day)
Old Town (Morning)
Nowhere (Evening)
Coffee Plantation (Evening)
Shipping Port (Sunset)
River Depot (Day)
Jungle Mines (Evening)
