Earlier this week, the internet became abuzz with news of Ghost Recon: Breakpoint?s featuring overly egregious microtransactions. At the title?s early access launch, an innumerable amount of time-saver items were available to purchase with real money. This included nearly every in-game item, such as skill points, XP boosters, weapon upgrades, cosmetics, and many more. According to a recent post on the Ubisoft Forums, these micotransactions launched prematurely. In fact, certain in-game purchases weren?t intended for Breakpoint?s release at all, having been designed for players who arrive post-launch and want to quickly catch up. To alleviate the error, the publisher has removed a host of items from the in-game store.
In the Ubisoft Forums post, the company addressed the microtransactions issue, stating that the error has since been resolved. A section of the post, listed under ?Time Savers,? features below:
PB = PB || {};
PB.gptStandAlone = PB.gptStandAlone || {};
PB.gptAutoRefresh = PB.gptAutoRefresh || {'gptAds':[], 'gptStandAlone':[]};
