Brakkesh 2.0<\/strong> is a big rework of one of Delta Force’s Operations maps. In a developer blog<\/a> on 15 November, Team Jade explained the three main changes: you now pick a faction<\/strong> (Ahsarah or HAAVK) and take on its jobs with a badge that carries progress between runs; the dreaded control room<\/strong> has new entrances and earlier upstairs access; and starting a major faction mission can make your squad the target of a hunt<\/strong> by players working for the other side.<\/p>\n

How do factions work in Brakkesh 2.0?<\/h2>\n

Your squad’s first call is which side to work for. Ahsarah<\/strong> wants a tower reclaimed, so you push into it. HAAVK<\/strong> wants cargo delivered, so you hold your ground while it moves. Completing tasks levels up your own badge<\/strong>, which unlocks tougher work and keeps your progress between runs. At the highest badge level, your badge can turn a limited number of enemy guards<\/strong> friendly, though not the whole faction and not the bosses. You can switch sides mid-run, and your faction status records it.<\/p>\n

What changed in the Brakkesh control room?<\/h2>\n

Team Jade admits the control room was a “familiar headache” where squads got stuck outside the same doorway. Now:<\/p>\n
