However, the prices are jacked up quite a bit on a captured weapon that you cannot modify. Once the weapon is unlocked, it will appear as a regular weapon in your soldier inventory to purchase as normal. You cannot buy these ribbons outright, they are hidden from view with no way to toggle 'all ribbons' anymore. Currently, each weapon unlocks on Bronze 1 for that weapon's specialist ribbon. In order to unlock a captured weapon, you would have to pick it up off the battlefield and use it for certain amount of time. I will preface this with saying that this is information coming from the prototype, so its all subject to change and I am not sure either what is bugged and what its not. Will that change in the future? Maybe, but I don't see it happening any time soon. We all know that as far as mods go, there is not much choice and most have little to no impact on the weapons. There is no indication that new mods will be added or if current mods will be buffed to help promote more play with the faction's originally intended equipment. AR's, LMG's, SMG's, and AT equipment will be the big selling point to have on other factions. ![]() You have to run them almost completely stock, however there are plenty of automatic weapons that are still worth while to have stock. No 3rd or 4th tier ammo, no sights, no scopes, no triggers, springs or barrels. Technically, you can add the second tier ammo, but that is the only mod that is able to be upgraded. This is to encourage players to still use their faction's true set of equipment for added modification bonuses. The largest difference is that you cannot modify captured weapons at all. However, they will be considered 'captured weapons' and will have their own caveats. You heard me correctly, you can now have any weapon on any faction in a Battlefield type FPS system. Well captured weapons are coming back and they are essentially opening up all equipment to all factions under the same system. Every now and again you see someone in chat calling 'hacks!' because they have never seen one on a legacy soldier before. ![]() It was a fun niche to show your long commitment to the game. You were able to keep the grandfathered equipment but you were no longer able to modify them. Veterans will have remembered legacy equipment such as owning a ppsh41 or dp28 on an American or German soldier prior to the Soviet Faction being added in early 2015. The new captured weapon system is available on the prototype server currently despite no formal announcement in the forums indicating that they were wanting to test them. I thought I would put out a PSA regarding some major upcoming changes coming to H&G gameplay that players may or may not be aware of coming down the pipeline.
