Default Mercenary Mode (speculate)

Hey all seeming that no-one here really knows what the mystery "Mercenary Mode" is (except MCM of course) lets speculate here. I think that it will be a bit like Crackdown's "Keys to the City mode" it is a cheat mode in a nutshell, it lets you enable God Mode, Unlimited Ammo, Spawn Vechicles (spelling?). What do you guys think??

he thought your title meant that mercenary mode would be speculate mode, instead of realizing it mean "elaborate" in the thread xD

I myself am pretty interested in this, because ,if the testers thought it was "repetitive" which i think is complete bull excriment, this could be a saving grace and something very cool 8D

Maybe it's some more super james-bond-esque missions or like bounty hunting missions

I bet they'll keep mercenary mode under tight wraps until we get closer to the release date though, it's one of their few last BIG secrets.

(Opinion) Mercenary Mode... hardcore difficulty but you don't have any allies and you lose the black market... parachute and grapple all the way...

I have been thinking that mercenary mode would be a way to go back and play missions over so as to make money and such. You know like a merc, its all about the money.

nah, i bet its a mode where you have to see how much damage/bounty you can cause in a set amount of time. Maybe there's an achievemnet. So for example you have 1min to destroy 2 planes, 5 helicopters, 8 cars and kill 1000 people. Something along those lines.

Why would they give info on difficulty levels, and then withhold the next logical level? There would be nothing to speculate. Not to mention how dissapointed everyone would be to find out thats all it is.
