** The "Ghost Experience" update is intended to be one by addressing a large number of fan complaints such as the option to turn off the hated gear level system, and add in significantly more realism such as being able to turn off regenerating health, limiting the amount of bandages that can be carried, and making ammo mangement more crucial by making it so reloading without emptying a magazine first results in ammo loss.

** The third episode was originally to be titled "Transcendence", which going by the title and the plot of the main campaign likely would have had something to do with BrainUploading and fighting the [[ScrappyMechanic much-derided drones,]] possibly in a manner similar to the equally dimly-viewed Golem Island Raid. The developers then announced that they had responded to player feedback and retooled the episode into ''Red Patriot'', which sees the Ghosts working with long-running character Scott Mitchel to stop a terrorist plot conducted by campaign BigBad Trey Stone and the remains of Raven's Rock, [[CallBack the villains from]] ''[[CallBack Future Soldier]]''. The episode is also structured around an HVT hunting mechanic similar to the one found in ''Wildlands''.

* AuthorsSavingThrow: The developers have made major improvements and changes to the game since its initial release to address fan complaints, and have continued to regularly release new content (including new story campaigns). This is a notable contrast to ''VideoGame/{{Anthem}}'', which was released around the same time with many of the same live-service design ideas and had a similarly poor initial reception and was ultimately abandoned as unsalvageable by the publisher E.A. after one major content update. Unfortunately, ''Breakpoint'' eventually succumbed to the same fate as ''Anthem'', as in April 2022 Ubisoft announced they were killing the game after Ghost Recon Quartz, their attempt to incorporate [=NFTs=] into the game, failed to meet financial expectations.
** In response to backlash related to the heavy monetization of the game, especially the essentially pay to win "Time Savers", Ubisoft quickly removed most of the egregious pay to win items from the in-game store, [[BlatantLies claiming that they weren't intended to be sold]].
** The "Ghost Experience" update is intended to be one by addressing a large number of fan complaints such as the option to turn off the hated gear level system, and add in significantly more realism such as being able to turn off regenerating health, limiting the amount of bandages that can be carried, and making ammo mangement more crucial by making it so reloading without emptying a magazine first results in ammo loss.
** Fully customizable A.I. teammates were added to the game in a July 2020 update, allowing single-player players to get a similar squad combat experience as ''Wildlands''.

** One of the common expressed disappointments about ''Red Patriot'' was that Bodark was just 8 officers, instead of being a new faction with new units like Los Extrajneros from the ''Fallen Ghosts'' DLC in ''Wildlands''. In ''Operation Motherland'', the game's season 2, that's exactly what happens; Bodark is now a full new faction with their own distinct troopers (who are equipped much more professionally than Sentinel) and 4 new types of EliteMooks.
