It gives you back the freedom to play a mission the way you want to play it.
- See a vehicle that would be useful, but is locked for some reason?
Unlock it. - Are you sent on a mission with inadequate equipment?
Have your favorite rifle air-dropped.
- Are there magical bombs that drop on you whenever you step into some "forbidden" zone?
Remove those magical walls.
- Are you being rushed with some tight time limits, when you would like to stroll around a bit?
Reset the clock, and take your time. - Would you prefer to scout out an area via a UAV before going in?
Launch one. - Would you rather play a night mission during the day, or a day mission during the night?
Adjust the time.
