Ai

Give the AI a downed/unconscious/injured animation instead of them tanking shots like division. NEVER DO THAT.

Fix the janky running back and forth cover animation, they look funny as hell lol.

Allow the struggle. I barely use any heals at all and i want the ai to put some accurate shots on me that will force me to change position and utilize lean mechanics.

Sidenote: allow some tents or a hiding mechanic type thing for camping in the field for long missions. Along with hideouts and crafting, would love some type of camo sleeping bag; maybe a weather sickness mechanic when the game expands. Im just throwing ideas. I recognize ghost recons approach on this game, add more. I saw the lighting addition thats sick.

Luck…. A Two Part

**CLICK****CLICK****CLICK****CLICK**CRASH**
I intended to kill the boy…. I was not going to miss….. As I took aim, and pulled, the gun jams…. Giving away all position and all forms of stealth. The boy falls and starts yelling not to shoot, tells me his name is Jacob, I froze and began interrogating him.
**PISTOL****GUN POINTED** “HOLD RIGHT FUCKING THERE YOU FUCKKKK WHO ARE YOU WHO ARE YOUUUU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” 
“FUCKKKKKK ITS ME  JACOB FUCKKKKK FUCKKK JACOBBBBBB”
This fucker had the nerve to have a pistol and drop it when He realized he was almost dead.falls over at any type of pressure….. 
After interrogating him and questioning him for his lifestyle choices, he begged to join me.
“Miss seiko please please… i do not wish to be forced into war anymore. Please miss seiko save mee save meeeeeee!!!!!” 
He told stories of violent abuse at the hands of the punisher and his bandit gangs. I have ran into friendlies on the border zones, and have gotten familiar with most of these gangs, but these bandits are not created for the people…… nothing of the sort…..
Jacob explained he had been picked up around the border zone closer to the frontlines. Just taken….. No word to home, and no protection,... taken while on a walk to the store…. I could not feel anything but sadness and loathing…. These men forced this young boy to fight a war his own land has nothing to do with…. I assume it is revenge against NATO. Jacob went into detail about the russian tactics, the forceful abuse, and the drive to create hate to keep the men from breaking down. He tells punisher as if he is this almighty killer and overlord; although he does own a lot of land near the zones. I cannot imagine the disgusting things they must have exposed to this boy.
I tell him to tag along with me, but he walks in front. I cannot trust anyone for I have just ventured back, and this place is nothing but hell frozen……...

Letters from Lumi and Pyatso- Once past the school, I take a break on the highway near a broken trailer, Found Peanuts and a few waters. I sit in the back of the truck and begin cooking what's left of my peas, planning my next move. Winter has gone and the air seems heavier. I pause a moment to look through the rest of my collected notes as I look towards the trail leading to our old house. I notice Lumi’s letter; Lumi is one of the greatest friends that have ever come into my life; Stricken by the passing of her mother early, she was always a little troubled. Half Russian and Finnish, Dropped school by the age of 15 and began a life of drug running for the russians near the borders. After a few years she ended up volunteering for the medical brigades tasked with helping the frontline on both sides.
“Seiko, it has been too long!! , I have been well, and the friends here, they do not share the same sentiments as the soldiers and the thugs. Here on the frontlines tensions are high but the spirits are immaculate. The forces on both sides have been kind although the drones have been rather intense. I feel It will get worse soon, but for now it all seems like we will be home with only a few scratches. Please tell father that I am sorry, that I have chosen this path as to make something of nothing, for him. I know that I havent been the best of a friend to you, but I atleast hope you are well and the family is at their best. Say Hi to Ankara and Aino please, they will worry and I WIsh to bring them gifts. Take care ok ? <3
-Lumi”
How her words soothe my soul….. Her home being only about 30 minutes from ours, Ive decided to head there in search of more clues of where the rest of my friends have gone since I was away…….
An hour after walking, I came across the old van her father would drive us in, the good times we had, the snow was always the mood killer… Her fathers Pick up truck is missing…..
Old photos of her mother in the den, shattered glass and broken electronics everywhere. A hole in the back leading to the yard the size of a car, and loose bullets everywhere. I assumed the worst, but I held hope her father escaped at this point. I write this inside her room, cold, and littered with debris and bullet holes. I looked around for some type of lead to where they might be… 
I finally found a few letters and notes she wrote…., Pyatsos’ was unopened so I saved it for last.
“From:
-Lumi
To:
-Father
Father we have made it to the frontlines, and all is well, I hope you are taking care of yourself…. Tell ankara to handle the farm please, Aino knows how to cook just like mama. Goodbye<3”

“From:  

-Lumi
To:
-Aino
Hey stupid!!! Tell papa he needs to get off the couch and TV, He will go mad !!! I havent spoken in a while, and I hope Uni is going well!!!.. I know we HAdnt had the chance to talk, and you refuse to write for how I left…. But understand I love you Aino, you and Ankara Are the only family I have… <3 I love you take care!..”
“From:
-Lumi
To:
-Ankara
Hey stupid!! Pick up the trash!! Papa cant do things on his own anymore and he needs help. Its time to realize how the world works now baby brother… I hope you are well <3”

One of the last notes I had skipped to had a bit of blood on it. 

“From:
-Lumi
To:
-Father
Father, I hope you find this letter well. The invading forces have pushed beyond fighting on the ukranian front and have now decided to target other NATO posts and territory. The men are doing all they can to defend these positions, although we are being pushed back hard. I please beg that you take the family and move northwest. The north is host to many refugee outposts set sail for other countries in the even that the forces push beyond us. The likelihood that they reach the house is extremely high. Please father… leave, I can find my way to you through the 112 app and I will not stop searching. Please father, I love you..”

This news has only made me worry… In the sick madness of my findings I heard a few voices coming from the room next door. Jacob took position, and we began sweeping the remainder of the house. Upstairs were a few steps and some chatter, as me and Jacob waited for them to come down, we ambushed them from each side as they came down the steps.  
On their bodies were a few bullets and some matches for a fire. Luckily a few snacks. Jacob brings my attention to a note he finds on the other bandit…. It read “letter to Mäkelä Family” This letter was from the military, stamped for approval….   

“Dear The Mäkelä Family,I was deeply saddened to hear the news of Lumi's passing. Words cannot fully express my sorrow, but please know that you and your loved ones are in my thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.Lumi was a remarkable individual. I will always remember them for their unwavering courage, deep kindness, and dedication to others. I feel truly privileged to have known them and served alongside them. One of my favorite memories of Lumi is how their bright energy and steady leadership could lift the spirits of everyone in the room, even during the most challenging moments.Their dedication, bravery, and sacrifice will never be forgotten. Lumi represented the very best of us, and the impact they made on those around them—and our country—will leave a lasting legacy.Please accept my deepest condolences. If there is anything at all I can do to support you in the days and weeks ahead, please do not hesitate to let me know.With deepest sympathy and respect,
Russian Red Cross 54th Medical Brigade.”

I sat in disbelief for a moment, to realize that the sweetest person i knew was taken from this world. Solidifying my belief that nothing is scared anymore, that this entire side of the world is just swallowed. Compared to the north, this is beyond hell…….
I sat with Jacob across from the deceased bandits and finally decided to open Pyatsos’ letter leading into the night……

**WARNING**WARNING**GRAPHIC** REAL STORY**FORCED CONSCRIPT STORIES**
“Father….. I wish to come home…. This place is not what they told us… This is hell. Im so tired dad. Papa I cant take it. Ive been watching what lumi sends you, and i urge her to tell the truth of whats happening hear. Papa they are shooting us with drones, I am so scared. We spend almost every minute inside the trenches…. Every bird sends me into fear papa…. The government is holding men hostage… they yell at them only to give them small choices to fight or be killed by their own captains…. WE ARE NOT HERE TO HELP… WERE SENT TO THE FRONT TO DIE…. I lay in mud papa please please papa send someone to help. Come pick us up please. They dragged borelia to a room And I could hear him crying!!! I see nothing but piles of bodies… I See the invaders….. They are coming…….”

After reading the letters I had went numb, froze and began to sweat…. Jacob and I began searching mor inside the house, discovering the lifeless body of Mr. Mäkelä. Hanging from the ceiling fan… such a scene, a sight burned into me…. I dont feel sadness … as I write this I only feel more compelled now.. Jacob and I take for the outpost tomorrow……. I wish I could sleep…………… 14 bullets left………….

Still out near the school… barely made it past the village…
God had blessed me these few days searching, As I have ran into the old doctor that had treated me long ago. How he survived is beyond me….
It seems he is being held by the occupation, the chaos of having an entire family near all of this. He tells me he has a safe house for him and his family, hidden in the trees beyond the soccer field. I wonder how long it will last…… Stuck in place, treating even those who wish to invade. Although, He to has nowhere to go………… He explains he has a duty to this place, he tells a story of honor and pride; which i believe will get him killed. But i do not blame him. 

Boy I met 5 years ago, Young ecstatic lad, once saw him in his school play when the family would take trips for the kids. This very same school; we lived only a few miles uphill near the Highway. I long for the day people can play on  this field once more. I now stare the boy in the eyes 15 years later, Dressed in the garbs of the bandits I slay…. 
Ive witnessed rapes, torture, even drownings. The local bandits kill their own men, as if the neighboring forces are any different…… What a world I seamlessly slip further from….. #click#

RTV Stories #1, By Seiko

The border zone is a wreck, the bandits come and go daily. Wondering across the houses, setting up shop and using them for shelter. It never lasts long. Every few days I leave the cabin for supplies i see more and more young boys dying to a senseless war. Joining militia groups in hopes they can make some difference across the zone. Such fools…

The bandits come and Go… Punisher came through the village, close to the cabin, scared me shitless. I need more supplies, weapons are low on conditions, and the snow is only freezing the barrels. The guards have come to clean some of the bandits around, tearing them down with no remorse, NATO expanding territory, Russia pushing west, its all fucked….

I must hide….. They are making rounds……
