    The anticheat is a joke. You can pretty much cheat in every gamemode besides ghost war.

    Bought the game for cheap on sale and after 2 days im 260 gear score and sick of it. To get better gear above gear level 250 you need to run raids 24/7 but the blueprints and such are only rewarded once a week.

    I could write a whole book about how bad this game is but im sick of it.

    Ubisoft yet again destroyes a game with good ideas by trying to pander the game to everyone. Listen, i bet it has been said a million times, but a good game that does a specific, targeted thing very good, is almost everytime better than a game which does everyting mediocre or in this case bad. The Open World looks good but is empty and shallow. Enemy have next to no AI. The Story has an interesting cocept but fails miserably at execution. Again, you could cut out like 70% of the map and make them concentrated, well made Levels. You are supposed to be "like a paratrooper behind enemy lines" right? You never feel like that, the only thing that a little bit resemble that, are these surveillance drones that spot you from high in the sky. Again, what were the thoughts behind that? You are alone (or in a team of 4) behind enemy lines, every step, every attack must be wisely chosen, keeping your ressources in mind. Are the risks worth it? But no you have a huge safezone in the mountain with free chopper right from the start with unlimited ressources.

    Atleast the keep updating the game, even though these updates really show that the developers (or who was responsible) didnt think things through. We know have a realism mode, were you can adjust the games difficulty , the hud and turn off weapon levels and some world stuff (like the drones). These are in generel great, especially the difficulty options so i can make the game like a Ghost Recon back in the day, where every shot is deadly and stealth is mandatory. Though as mentioned before this clashes hard with the game design at its core. So, for example, before i actually played the main story, i spend like 2 hours adjusting the difficulty options just right, and then i got into a story mission where you have to blow up some bomb drones with a chopper. Now you can of course land for all 5 objectives, each in different bases, kilometers appart, but the way the developers apparently wanted you to play the mission, was to take the npc with you in an attack chopper, and bomb them on the way. Now, you have made a "tactical" "realistic" "stealth" shooter, and decide to put in vehicles, choppers and planes, even though there is fast travel. How can you then f**ck up the helicopter controls so badly in your sequel? Helicopters are not only barebones, with no flares and you can only shoot ones and then wait for them to reload. Problem is, that they as well have put a WASD control fused together with a mouse fixed "look-to-steer" control, which results in aiming with the mouse being absolut horrible and trying to aim carefully and precisly with a helicopter is near impossible.

    And the end of the day, i can see the thoughts behind everything, but again i guess Ubisofts higher ups just dont care and scream "Ship it!", or the project leads are so blind to everything that they sincerely thought this would turn out good. To the people working in any Ubi dev team, im sincerely sorry. It must be hard, having to crunch for something you know will probably turn out mediocre at best, even though you put your heart into. Im... just sorry.    … Expand

It is indeed fun to clear out a base like Rambo, but it doesn't carry the game anywhere near long enough for what the game asks you to put in. The gameplay never evolves beyond what you see in the first hour as compared to the fortieth or even ninetieth hour. What you experience in the first couple of hours, will be what you experience for the rest of the game.

    And what will you be doing you ask? Running around a boring lifeless map devoid of any interest, clearing bases of largely the same enemy types, persevering through the wholly unnecessary inventory system and awful navigation menus, and talking to characters that just make you want to shoot them in the face. That's it. It’s a game that will take a lifetime to complete, because you’ll likely kill yourself before you finish it.

    Avoid or at the very least wait until it's cheap and experience Rambo for a few hours.    … Expand

    The game isn't bad.
    There are some core design decisions that, while not game breaking, will disappoint a lot of people. Gear level is one of them. Makes the game grindy-er than its predecessor. Apparently, Ubisoft plan on removing that entirely, so, we'll see how things go,
    The gameplay loop is... decent. But Nothing ground breaking. A lot of it is just copy and paste from Wildlands.    The game isn't bad.
    There are some core design decisions that, while not game breaking, will disappoint a lot of people. Gear level is one of them. Makes the game grindy-er than its predecessor. Apparently, Ubisoft plan on removing that entirely, so, we'll see how things go,
    The gameplay loop is... decent. But Nothing ground breaking. A lot of it is just copy and paste from Wildlands. It's not bad, but not really inspired. The skill tree is pretty much useless, since you'll unlock every skill anyway, and most of them are useless anyway.
    You can customize your character's look, but with less options than in Wildlands. Inventory management is ridiculous once you get multiple classes. Equipped items are linking to each class, meaning, if you find a new better item, you'll have to remove the previous one from EVERY. SINGLE. CLASS. And you can only change class at a camp site, which makes it a hassle to change item every time you find some better stuff.

    I've seen a lot of people complain about the shop, and money transaction. As far as I'm concerned, I've never had to even consider the shop. Granted, I've not yet tried the raids, or multiplier, but when it comes to the campaign, and various solo activities, there's no problem on that front.

    The environments are... not inspired. They're not bad, but we've seen better. A lot of places feel like generic places for one thing or another. There are staggeringly low amount of vehicles. Lots of variations for paints, but the vehicles themselves? Not a lot. The sound design is copy and paste from Wildlands. Not a single improvement here. The music are completely forgettable, but I don't mind the silence, since this is a pretty large open-world. Pretty good graphics, but, as usual for Ubisoft, the game is terribly optimized, making playing it on anything other that a WAR-BEAST of a PC a hassle. You'll get random freezes and frame drops at times.

    And then the bugs. This game is a buggy mess. There are bugs everywhere.
    Bugs with the various skills and actions that will happen randomly ALL the time, preventing you from doing said actions UNLESS you're aiming down your weapon's sight. Want to use your drone? Gotta aim down your sight first. Want to change your weapon from auto to single fire? Aim first. Want to switch to secondary sight? Aim. Remove suppressor? Aim. It also makes vaulting impossible. This bug is a nightmare.
    Bugs with quests, that will sometimes not progress, for no reason.
    Bugs with the **** AI that will sometimes drive a car into a wall and make it all bouncy (this is hilarious but still a bug).
    Bugs with vaulting, ladder, which will make freeze your character in place, pretty much soft locking you.
    And a **** of other more minor, but no less annoying, bugs.

    I CANNOT recommend this game. It's not bad, admittedly. But it's unfinished, unpolished, uninspired, buggy, poorly optimized, and mostly forgettable. It's a lazy game made by lazy people.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ghost Recon Breakpoint was a mixed bag for me, especially coming straight from Wildlands. I found Wildlands enjoyable and freeing; this didn't hit the mark of its predecessor.

    For me, there was nothing that was amazing. It was a generic shooting game that was promised to be expansive, immersive and able to play with AI teammates - it fell short. To be promised AI teammates on the trailers and demos and then to not receive them was a massive letdown.

    GRAPHICS:
    The graphics were standard for the most part, but for a majority of the game these glitched out. Boots clipping through trousers, vests clipping through tops, terrain not loading in. For what was promised to the audience, it was a letdown.

    BUGS:
    Now in every game, there's bound to be a bug of some kind. In Ghost Recon Breakpoint, there's a ton. I pre-ordered the game and to have the servers go down on the release day for over 4 hours was insane. I've had my character glitch through the trees and get stuck within the trunk, unable to vault out. I've had my character float through the ground and die and in the same breath, I've had enemy AI go floating off into the sky.
    I can only hope that in the future bugs get hammered out for future players.

    STORY:
    For me, the plot was dull. There was nothing in the narrative that kept the excitement going in the game and it felt as if I was pushing myself up a mountain to finish it. After the game finished - I didn't feel any form of euphoria at the ending, like other games in this genre. I just felt dull. The implementation of the gear level system/being able to toggle certain elements was a step in a good direction. The character creation was a step up from Wildlands, I'll give it that. You could customise your version of Nomad more than Wildlands, such as being able to blouse boots which were a highly recommended thing from GRW.

    One point of annoyance for me was from NPC dialogue when talking to Nomad. I played my version of Nomad as a female, as if the option is there I want to see how the company has gone about it. My verdict is that it was lazy. If the option of playing as a female Nomad is there, there should have been the correct pronouns as well when an NPC would speak to us. It's annoying, as the effort of continuing a female agent should have also had the correct form of address.

    SOUND:
    Ever wanted ambient sounds to get stuck on a loop, regardless of whether you are in combat or if you've fast travelled to a Bivouac? Ghost Recon Breakpoint. I ended up muting the sounds the game was giving, minus the dialogue and just listened to Spotify on repeat.

    MICRO-TRANSACTIONS:
    There are micro-transactions in multitudes, to the point that it's scary. You could buy your way to success. Guns, skill points, time savers, gear and cosmetics. At what point is it a game and not just a buy what you want?

    If you want to play the game, go ahead - but tread carefully.    … Expand

All of these factors are what made this the first game i never completed the main story for and it is therefore the worst game i have ever played.

Instead - Ubisoft brought the world the following: - A good looking game. - A game    "How deep can a massive publisher / developer sink?"

    - A good looking game.
    - A game that's fun to play, with your friends, especially when you are drunk and you don't care about using tactics nor effort.

    But sadly, I think with those two points mentioned - that's all the positive I can say about this game, because wow! How did they manage to get this through quality-assurance / quality control, the game is:
    - Buggy
    - Tons of micro-transactions, all optional, it's not as if you have to buy it, but ... come on guys most of these add nothing new to the game compared to what you already paid for (you can literally pay money to unlock a weapon, that you can already get for free in game).
    - Boring & repetitive, as A.I. will simply spawn in the same position over and over again during defend objectives.
    - Cheaply "balanced" - as in, you have something called: "gear score" / levels of your equipment, if your score is too low - due to outdated gear - you'll do less damage a system similar to TC: The Division, and I wasn't too happy about that game either.

    On top of that, you can clearly notice where A.I. spawns, as you might've just checked a certain corner / bush - and then a couple seconds later: Bam - an enemy in a previously cleared sector, as someone who likes to play a bit tactical and challenging (as was possible in TC: Wildlands !) - this completely ruined my gameplay.

    And no - I didn't mind them not putting this game on Steam, but I do hate myself for not being able to refund this anymore as it was hardly worth the effort.

    The game can be described in one word-boring! It's beautiful, it's incredibly detailed, but it's very boring! When you play the second half, you want to turn it off! Abby's story is dull and idiotic. And the story that tells us the game is also banal and boring. This is not a masterpiece, this is a normal quality average game.

    I've been playing for a little over a week now, and whilst I was excited about it initially, I have to say that it is a real disappointment.

    There are so many bugs. Most of them are immersion breaking. Bugs in CQB kills resulting in me being killed. Poor lipsync in cut scenes. Bizarre gear loadout changes in cut scenes. For example, I'm wearing a Crye JPC plate carrier and primary weapon is an HK416. So for most of the game I appear to have 4 x HSGI Taco single mag carriers with my 5.56mm mags on the front of the plate carrier. Then in a cut scene it sometimes changes to either having 4 x long straight 9mm submachine gun mag pouches, to no mag pouches and a utility pouch on left and from memory a couple of pistol mag pouches on the right. Weird.

    The bivouac system is hopeless. You select to set up your bivouac, get a cut scene of setting up what looks like rope to tie down a tent, but there is no tent. You are sitting out in the open, yet somehow you can magically buy new weapons and attachments and clothing in the store, swap out gear items, sell unwanted items, order cars, trucks or helicopters?! Stupid. Why not just a small hut with a couple of settlers or Outcasts, which would at least make it a little more plausible to conduct trading and get support.

    Weapon attachments are poorly done as well. I purchased an ACOG and an Aimpoint T1, expecting to be able to mount on my HK416 AR. But for I can't. But I could attach the ACOG to a shotgun?!?! What the hell? For what reason would Ubisoft do this, especially when they are marketing the game and mechanics as being realistic.

    All of this is immersion-breaking, and counter to the idea promoted by Ubisoft that this is a survival type game, you're on your own (until you walk into your main encampment and find there are 10 or so other Ghosts in the community hub area that you have to walk through to get to anything else!!!).

    The story is poorly developed. Voice acting is wooden (it sounds like some of the voice actors were just bored). The cut scenes are long winded, lack any sense of drama, and the facial expressions on the characters are flat. Voices cut in and out, and the dialogue is sometimes cheesy beyond belief.

    Non-player characters in the wild react in bizarre ways, or alternatively don't react at all. I have walked right up to two individual Outcasts in the wild, and they don't even acknowledge my existence.

    The slip and slide thing on hillsides is something many complain about, but I like it. If you're out there in the wild on your own, taking care of where and how you walk is important. If you just crouch before you walk down a hill, you can get down more slowly, but safely. However you can then apply this to walking down a 4-5m rock cliff, and somehow get down unscathed. Silly.

    I honestly don't care about the microtransaction stuff. Almost everything you need in the game can be found in the wild or purchased with earned game currency. However I am concerned that the desire to monetise everything in the game has led to really poor choices around game design and gear and so forth. Like a Stetson hat which gives me more protection than an Ops-Core FAST ballistic helmet.

    Overall I am frustrated and very disappointed. So much potential, but it feels disjointed and poorly built..    … Expand

    There used to be a time when a $60 game was released with all its content. Nowadays, we get "games as service" with content hidden behind paywalls and microtransactions. You would have thought Ubisoft would have learnt from EA's debacle with Anthem, but instead, they've gone down the cliff like a lemming.

    I feel like they took a couple steps backwards with this title, there are some things about Breakpoint I really liked however the cons outweighed the pros by far. Added a new camo system where you can bury yourself halfway in mud or dirt (not sure of this actually effects anything versus being prone) it kind of seems like just something to do since the ai in Breakpoint walk right past you if you're prone regardless.

    The fact they are trying to push people into playing online with others or PvP making the game only available if you have an online connection. When will developers realize that there are parts of the world that don't have the best internet and sometimes have to wait days to before internet comes back up. Also Don't force ANY game to be dependent on an online server connection, gamers shouldn't have to rely on your servers working to play a game they paid for. If your game doesn't work offline you're doing it wrong.

    The overall gear score they added makes no sense to me, you can kill practically everyone with a head shot with any weapon, it's basically filler content and only establishes a player's "level" or how much xp they have. So all the different rares and leveled up weapons make no sense other than just collecting them. Since any weapon can head shot anyone.

    It feels like they are trying to push the game into a different genre, the game feels like an inbred version of wildlands & some random shooter looter. Not sure where they are trying to take the series but if they were smart they would stop everything they are doing and re evaluate. Listen to your player base.

    The ai is in need of dire assistance, they are literally clueless as to what is going on around them. I shot a npc standing next to another npc and he didn't notice, that was really immersion breaking and for a "AAA" title we should have something in place for that. The game feels like a cookie cutter experience since a lot of the village and town layouts are strikingly similar.

    I went back to Wildlands to cure my hankering for some Ghost Recon, Wildlands is def harder and looks better and the ai is def smarter. if only someone would remake the original Ghost Recon and do it right!    … Expand

    a game that seemed to embody a special operation unit. Yes wildlands had its flaws needing work on things like the friendly AI & vehicle driving mechanics to name a few. It needed work but was still a great game. Breakpoint would have been an easy win and easily a great title just needing to fix some mechanics from the last one and give us some cool stuff to do it up nice.

    I loved Wildlands because that's what it was a stand alone game that was different than what was on the market. So Ubisoft had a nice platform to work off of. But they managed to screw that up.... Breakpoint is the Division 2 with a better stealth mechanic & less sponginess w/ enemy ...change my mind!

    Breakpoint is a Division 2 clone.
    Here let's look at the features of the Division 2;
    Tighter camera 3rd person camera that you can’t adjust
    Snap to cover
    Loot based system
    Crafting
    Lone wolf no friendly AI
    Required online
    Oh wait sorry that's all Breakpoint

    Also the menus have the same feel and layout of the Division
    THEY RUINED Ghosts.

    But what really ruined the whole game and takes the experience they were trying to portray and literally blows its own face off is the full online (just like the division) with the community area which happens to be where some missions are. So when I walk into this cave I see 100s of other players that are online right now. So how am I suppose to "role play" or buy the scenario that I'm all alone? There are literally 100s of “Ghosts” in this cave. I mean it's literally an army...an army of ghosts. I felt more isolated in Wildlands than I do in Breakpoint.
    I didn't like Division, I played Ghost Recon Wildlands because it wasn't Division, nor did it feel like it. Not everyone wants the same game experience across every game you make. What is the point of having multiple titles if they are all the same f@#$ing thing?
    Lets not forget the buy your way to the top garbage they have added in here. Yay micro transactions … said no one ever

    So to Ubisoft
    F The Division
    F the Train Wreck that is Division's Clone
    Just take your trash you call video games and go to hell. I’m done with your company period.

    - Jon Bernthal

    ... Yep, that's it. Let's be real for a moment; this game was supposed to be the follow-up for Wildlands. The previous opus had everything we could dream of: a massive open world quest, in a gorgeous reconstitution of Bolivia. Sure, there were some flaws, but still, the game was fun as hell.

    Now, we're in the south Pacific, on a remote lonely island. And even Farcry 3 did a better job at recreating such an atmosphere.

    Here, we've got nothing. The island is mostly empty, the game is boring as hell, the quest system is a mess, the AI is dumb as **** (We're fighting Ghosts, and a top-level AI, but it feels like we're facing your local paintball team and asthmatic roombas).

    But the main flaw, the one that ruins EVERYTHING, is that they removed the squad system. From the very start of the game, everything is set to make you fell like you're investigating, piece by piece, finding pieces of evidence to find bad guys, who will eventually lead you to the main bad guys. So far so good. But the villains are colorless, the scenario is bad, the dialogues are awful, the NPCs feel like robots. The only good thing is, again, Jon Bernthal playing Colonel Walker.

    Big, beautiful open world with basically nothing to do. There are enemies and camps scattered everywhere, but they are just there to try to convince you that the open world is not completely useless. Typical Ubisoft open world, but this time it is much worse than previous ones.

    Microtransactions. Part of cosmetics are purchasable using ingame currency, and part of them can ONLY be purchased in Ubisoft store. Moreover, there are "time savers" purchasable with real money in the store that allow you to skip certain amount of grinding. Since publisher wants to earn money, it is extremely likely that the game is designed to be utterly grindy so that people are urged to purchase time savers to skip to the fun part.

    Gear score and tiered loot. Before any "one shot headshot kills everything" counterargument, I finished the main campaign with GS 50, so I know well about that. From technical perspective, the problem with GS is that it is tied to enemy perception, so if your GS is lower than theirs, they can just magically see you far away. From immersion perspective, it is utterly garbage. No idea why a bonnie hat provides more protection than a FAST ballistic helmet. They could have made this a little bit better. Helmet provides resistance, bonnie hat provides mobility and concealment etc. Ghost Recon, from this point on, will never be a hardcore military tactical shooter. My assumption is that it is added in to artificially expand the limited gameplay. Developers' lame defense suggests that it is implemented to create variety in players' builds. It is a lie. Variety can be created in a million ways, such as unique perks, skills, meaningful attachments, deeper gun modification, etc.

    Guns. In a tactical shooter game, basically nothing is more important than the gun. In this game, TAC-50 uses .338 rounds instead of .50, and MP7, one of my favorite submachine guns, uses 9mm rounds instead of the iconic 4.6mm. When a game about using guns screws up the gun, good job.

    A game built around microtransactions. This game uses many methods to either force players to socialize or keep players online as long as possible. The game has a social hub, which is not only immersion-breaking but also useless. It presumably forces players to purchase cosmetic items to show off to strangers. Battle reward system is placed in the game so that players feel the need to log into the game everyday, therefore they have a better chance of making a purchase in the store.

    AIs are bad. Not as bad as those in betas, but still bad.

    Bullet sponge drones. Well, developers have to do something to justify the lame tiered loot and GS system.

    Muticam locked behind raid. Basically developers way of saying "Please stay in the game. I know the game is bland and boring, but, please, you will one day get your favorite multicam." People are forced to grind for GS to participate in raid to get multicam.

    Pros:

    Graphic. I never doubt Ubisoft's ability to make a beautiful open world. Graphic in this game is awesome.

    Prone camouflage is a good idea, and nicely executed. It is satisfying to see my character just "melt" into the ground while pointing my gun forward, like a sniper waiting for his/her prey. That is awesome, especially when you use the game to capture interesting picture.

    Movement. Besides some inconsistency migrated from Wildlands, such as you suddenly cannot vault over or climb up something (with full stamina FYI) while you can do that to identical things. Movement system is pretty good assuming character is carrying a 50 kg backpack. Sliding downhill is fun, but the fun stops when sliding downhill screws up my control scheme. But this bug will likely be fixed easily.

    *Stared at the screen for 10 minutes and admit that those 3 are the only pros I can come up with*

    All in all. The game is raw. It feels like that it should have been baked for a few month more to both iron out glitches and add something interesting. The game can be fun if you are not a hardcore GR fan starting the first game in the series. I just hope one day, Ghost Recon can return to its root. Not all games need to look the same, play the same, and feel the same. There are looter shooters out there, and let them be looter shooters. Please do not just smash looter shooter genre into Ghost Recon, especially if executed this poorly.

    Certainly NOT a Ghost Recon game. Let's get this out in the open now, if Ubisoft had chosen to produce this game without the "Tom Clancy", "Ghost Recon" or some of the signature characters attached to it, I don't believe that many people would be so upset about the end result. Unfortunately though this game is a Frankenstein's Monster owing far more of its core mechanics to OTHER UbisoftCertainly NOT a Ghost Recon game. Let's get this out in the open now, if Ubisoft had chosen to produce this game without the "Tom Clancy", "Ghost Recon" or some of the signature characters attached to it, I don't believe that many people would be so upset about the end result. Unfortunately though this game is a Frankenstein's Monster owing far more of its core mechanics to OTHER Ubisoft titles such as Far Cry: New Dawn, Assassins Creed: Odyssey and The Divison 2 than ANY relationship with previous Ghost Recon Titles.

    Whilst if deemed a stand alone title of an unrelated genre, this game might score at least a mediocre 5/10 based on its solid open world adventure, a relatively interesting story and its plethora of long side missions (Faction missions). However, above that is a game which is an unfocused buggy mess in other respects. Movement is "unnatural", numerous game breaking bugs remain past all the closed and open tests.

    However, the largest slap in the face of fans of the more hard core TACTICAL shooter genre is the incidious creep into the game of Looter-Shooter mechanics and full flooded loot boxes. We were led to believe this game, at its core, was about Survival...alone, behind enemy lines, ever hunted...however what we have is an endless wave of loot dropping at our feet and to add injury to insult, a shop...in a CAVE....where we can just buy whatever we feel we might need.

    Oh, and the final nail dear gamer, the final nail. Gear...Scores. Often the game will subtily tell you that the level, the fictional and unnatrual strength of the weapons, your gear, isn't "high" enough by allowing you to shoot 30+ rounds into an enemies chest at 5m and for him to just shrug it off...because he happens to be level 100 and you a mere level 15.

    Let me just close with a note at the stupidity of the Ai. A significant step down from even Wildlands!! They charge at you, single file to be mowed down or they notice a dead body only to calm down within 2mins as if nothing has happened. They have no tactics, the ONLY reason you can't walk in and kill everyone with abandon is...oh yeah, I forgot, i'm only level 15 and they're level 100.

    I could say more but you get the idea. I played for more than 15hrs, at extreme difficulty, hardly used any of the healing items you have, never felt I was threatened or involved in anything. Don't buy this game please.    … Expand

    This game is a far cry from its predecessor, Wildlands. Ubisoft should be embarrassed with this product, but that's unlikely as they've already demonstrated their willingness to pervert a stellar title series in the name of money and trendiness.

    The game seems like it isn't even a satisfactory product on its own. In this day and age, it's common for titles to come out with some incomplete branches to leave space for DLC. However, Breakpoint seems like a rushed rubber stamp with added flair. I would say it's a sad and disappointing Division/Destiny 2.5. Why the game has to broadcast that you've completed X, Y, and Z tutorial missions every time you load in, I don't know... And why is internet connection required to play single player?

    The game handling is cumbersome at best. Vehicle mechanics are poor. Maneuvering behind cover is disorienting and frustrating. Traversing terrain is inconsistent and can be counter-intuitive. The skill tree is quite lackluster and the classes are really just about which weapons you prefer using. The only class that has an ability worth using is probably the sniper with damage and penetration boost. The skill tree, again, is just about boosting certain weapon stats and expanding your inventory.

    The inventory wheel itself is very restrictive. Thankfully, you can pause and change out the two actual active items on it. Out of six slots, one is a class item, the other is an infinite med kit, and the other two are passive consumable buffs.

    Then, of course, you now have gear score... Which is stupid and pointless. Just like in Division and Destiny, the enemies that start off in the weaker areas scale with you. 10 shots to the face to kill the bad guy at level 1? Still 10 shots to the face at level 100. The only stats that offer any improvement are handling and mobility. Rarity only determines the extra buffs applied to the weapon. I actually picked up an identical weapon with the same buffs, but the gear score was higher... The base gun itself maintains the exact same stats and upgrades are applied universally. Worthless.

    Open world environment is standard. Side missions confer no real significance as far as items or any other in-game interactions. You can just scout out distant locations with your drone and just spawn hop all over the place so vehicles are useless anyway. Gear scales with you so you're just as likely to pick up a powerful piece of gear as a random enemy drop as you are from raiding bases and camps for stashes. They felt the need to sprinkle in dialogue options for whatever reason. Rendering is slow and seems about half the distance in comparison to Wildlands. Enemies that are tagged too far when you scout ahead with the drone despawn and then respawn without a tag - especially prevalent with enemy drones. It's just a bunch of wooded and hilly islands with small camps and dispersed compounds - very monotonous and uniform compared to the diverse environments you saw in Wildlands. Occasional convoys are worthless - just mobile chests with escorts.

    I'm only playing through it because I bought the piece of junk so I might as well get my money's worth out of it. I rarely buy games at launch, but Wildlands had me hyped up... Faith lost on this one.    … Expand

It’s a damn near perfect mirror image of Tom Clancy’s Division 2.

    This all shows me which I despise the most from AAA developers. Lack of motivation and lack of creativity. Let’s face it, Ubisoft has made it to the top and they’re not as interested in quality. The number one difference between aspiring developers and AAA developers is the hunger to put out something revolutionary, something groundbreaking.

I was told that the game was greatly improved and would be really nice now - so I gave it another try and was mostly disappointed. There were fewer bugs, but still noticeable errors like glitching through walls or being stuck in the air out of nowhere.

    The gameplay itself is mediocre, very easy on normal mode and not very challenging. The story is ok, but I found it hard to get involved, it was just not gripping for me.

    Regarding the UI: I've seen better ones, even from Ubisoft. In Breakpoint, pinning the active tasks is quite unintuitive and the menu itself is overly large and a bit complicated. The map where you can look for new tasks is huge and just not easy to overlook. Changing the weapons and using the weapon wheel is not running super smooth, but that's manageable. Some buttons are set weirdly, but for most of the game mechanics, you can change it, at least. But I did not find out how to set the marker feature properly - when trying to unpin a location marker, everyone in your squad gets a notification sound.

    Another thing that's a huge pain for me are the large buildings with complicated paths through them. Doors are randomly locked and it's not much fun making your way in and out of a building. They also look quite similar to each other, with similar furniture and sliding doors, what makes the experience even more dull. Travelling to other waypoints is also not very exciting. Most of the time you hop in a car or helicopter and then it takes a while.

    What I do like about the game are the graphics and nature environments. Plants and rain look very natural and pretty. I also like little details like footsteps in the snow or the ability to cover the character in dirt when you're laying down to hide. But that's about it - all in all, the game was not fun for me playing, because I was mostly bored. Being constantly confronted with bugs and problems I now got fed up for the second time. Two tries to play it through should be enough.    … Expand

    Technically it's also a mess, with bugs, crashes, servers going down, performance issues, you name it. It also looks and sounds about half a decade older than Division 2, which is inexplicable. It's like the teams who made these two games were on different planets. Its microtransactions also are well past the "cosmetic" line. You can buy almost everything in the game, but it doesn't really affect multiplayer, so you're basically expected to pay to cheat in a single player game. So if you do that, will the game become fun at least? No, it won't. It still sucks. Honestly, it's not even worth playing for free if you have Uplay+.

Absolutely everything is in dark shades. There's no color at all. It's like it's made for people who are color blind. The mountainous terrain really becomes annoying because you constantly find yourself sliding down hills . There's nothing but mountains in this game. Also, you cannot pick up and use captured weapons from dead enemies. And that's just bogus. it's also too easy to run out of ammunition. Anyone thinking about buying this game and want a good shooter? Buy Far Cry 5 or Sniper Elite 4 instead. Those games make this one look like garbage.… Expand

    This game is just a lazy money grab that parasites on beloved franchise: buggy, immersion-breaking mess with mediocre story and copy-paste landmarks. AI is dumb and bugged as hell - you dont need any skill at all even on Extreme difficulty. You dont even need any weapons except for single sidearms until you hit a grind wall in a form of extremely bullet-spongy drones that you must destroyThis game is just a lazy money grab that parasites on beloved franchise: buggy, immersion-breaking mess with mediocre story and copy-paste landmarks. AI is dumb and bugged as hell - you dont need any skill at all even on Extreme difficulty. You dont even need any weapons except for single sidearms until you hit a grind wall in a form of extremely bullet-spongy drones that you must destroy from time to time to progress in story.

    Monetization should be mentioned separately - it is one of the worst pay-2-win even by the standard of free-2-play mobile game: you can literally by everything from start with enough real money including weapons, mods, vehicles, currency etc. This is a ridiculous example of play-2-not-play. No wonder devs did not care about filling open world with any meaningful activities - you are not meant to traverse whole world but instead meant to pay more money to skip intentionally boring lazily copy-pasted grind locations.

    Summary - you will lose nothing if you just skip this one, unless you are some kind of casual whale who dont mind spending a low of cash on a buggy mess just to complete it asap and move on to something more interesting and polished. This game may be worth checking again in 6-12 months when most bugs will be finally fixed and price will drop to 15-20 USD, but is no not really worth a cent more than that    … Expand

    Wow, bow-wow of a game. Save your money, this is a micro-transaction milking grind fest of a game with a beautiful rendered but totally lifeless world. For PvE, enemy AI is just atrociously bad, worst I have ever seen in a game except maybe Diakatana (dating myself).

    Save your money, DO NOT BUY THIS GAME.

    This game is bad. There is no way around it. I was a bug fan of wildlands and for me it feels like Breakpoint is a step backwards in every possible way.

I know it's annoyed a lot of people but the guns and attachments are unlockable in the same way as in wildlands, and haven't been made any harder so I do believe these    This game is bad. There is no way around it. I was a bug fan of wildlands and for me it feels like Breakpoint is a step backwards in every possible way.

    I don't really have a problem with the in game microtransactions. I know it's annoyed a lot of people but the guns and attachments are unlockable in the same way as in wildlands, and haven't been made any harder so I do believe these really are "time savers". The other purchases are cosmetic and frankly if people are buying them, then they are the problem and the reason developers keep putting them in games.

    Now for breakpoint as a game.

    The good:
    The gun combat at long range is mostly the same as wildlands. I did notice a bug where the visual indicator of the shot, and where the shot landed was wildly different at range but this only happened once.

    Thats it for the good.

    The bad:
    You need to always be online, but the servers undergo constant maintenence and disconnect frequently, leaving the game unplayable.

    No AI teammates. These have been replaced with a consumable sync shot drone. The cynic in me believes this could be to encourage people to buy microtransactions crafting materials. Luckily its not difficult to find most consumables while going about the game.

    Graphics. They are just horrible. Lots of pop in, bad animations, muddy textures, wildly swaying grass for no reason, the darkness in the game just doesn't work. It's hard to explain but everything just goes haywire.

    Gameplay. This is where it really let's itself down. The cover system automatically finds cover when crouched. In theory. In practice it just doesn't work. In close quarter it will get you killed. Over and over.

    In single player you can unlock a skill to let you self revive, however since it's single player, the enemies who killed you have nothing else to look at. By the time you revive and go through the animation, they have killed you again.

    Missions are bland and all play out the same way. Go here, hold a button, go here, hold a button. This is not much different from wildlands, but the npc giving you instructions in wildlands gave the missions more life. If breakpoint all in mission instructions are generated from text documents. It's just boring.

    Mission breaking bugs are present in the majority of missions. As an example, last night I had to break prisoners out of a prison. I did this, escorted them to the safe zone. Nothing happened. I noticed that one of the prisoners was still stuck 600m away. I decided to ask the prisoners who were already at the safe zone to wait, at which point a mission fail triggered, saying I'd left a target behind.

    The script and voice acting is horrible, with the exception of Jon Bernthal. A lot of the dialogue doesn't make sense. The script is very B movie, which would be fine if this was EDF, but it takes itself too seriously for a script this bad to work.

    The weapon/equipment level is pointless. It possibly effects your ability to take out drones, but since headshots are still one hit kills its pointless. The game would be much better without it.

    The social hub area has no reason to exist. You play as a stranded marine in need of backup, but the social area is filled with many many other marines in the form of other players. It makes no sense in relation to the plot and having other players in the hub serves no purpose (except possibly allowing a player to show off all their microtransaction cosmetics?)

    The vehicle handling is some how worse than wildlands. They explode for no reason.

    The drones. The drones are a nightmare. Every now and then a uav flies over and you have to lay in the dirt. If it sees you it summons more drones. I really don't see why they added this to the game. The drones are clearly the justification for the weapon level system, but for me they are just another aspect ruining the game. They were definitely designed with multiplayer in mind. Infact, it feels like the whole game was.

    Enemy AI is even worse than wildlands. In close quarters they funnel through the same choke point like fish in a barrel. At range they stay still when you've blown their comrade's head off. If they do run off they'll stay behind cover indefinitely until you move. I'd probably do the same, but as an enemy in a game it's a boring behaviour.

    The survival mechanics and bivouacs don't really add anything to the game.

    Getting around the world feels boring because the world is so drab and dead. I genuinely enjoyed flying or driving between missions in wildlands, it felt interesting and alive. Its just not the same in breakpoint.

    Conclusion:
    All in all I just don't think there is a salvageable game behind breakpoint. The systems are too intertwined but don't work together, the setting is what it is and the script would have to be changed to the point of changing the whole game. Short of starting from the ground up, I really don't think they can save this one. I'd recommend giving it a miss.    … Expand

    The case when there is money but no brains, as a result of AAA, absolutely mediocre uninteresting games.
    I played for 100 hours trying to find interest in the game, everything in this game is done carelessly, from the menu design to the plot.

    Think Assassin's creed Odyssey with guns and drones instead of swords and an eagle, add to that it's always online and if their servers are down, you can't play. I honestly don't care about the massive amount of micro transactions they shovelled into it because I won't ever spend my money on them.

    This game is a complete disappointment after the success a wildland. As many reviews already talk about micro transaction, I won't talk about it, just keep in mind that all the game is built around it.

    Let's talk about the game play.
    First, where are the ghosts? (I mean your teammate not the ghost you see in ghostbuster) All the previous Ghost Recon game in the franchise that I play is about being part of a team. Like in advanced warfighters or wildland. The explanation of developers said it’s to make you feel alone behind the line. Hum like all the previous game I assume, we feel stuck behind the line with your team, it’s even more stressful because you’re in charge of their life. And if the goal is to make you feel alone, why is their multiplayer coop, and all the advertising was made displaying a team of for… I suppose that the real reason is that developing team IA was too expensive and too much time consuming, let make a market instead. So here we are with the same game mode as “The division” but with lack of talent.
    Secondly, this game is fu**ing slow! Each action takes too much time to perform with the slowest animation I have ever see. It’s just frustrating when you’re engage in combat and you need to fast disembark, or just climb over a tiny wall….
    Finally, this world feels empty and lifeless... The choice of putting the action on an imaginary island why not. But after the huge work made in wildland to bring life in a fake Bolivia world this new island seems dead. There is no activity in the settlement and town. Okay the island in under martial law, but the few amounts of PNJ you meet seems to just have lose their soul.
    To be fair this game brings interesting new features like the stamina management, the climb and falling mechanism (that make the 1 point instead of 0). But everything else seems undone, the global quality seems very poor for a AAA games. This game is just a money maker surfing on the success of the previous opus.    … Expand

    Division, Assasin's creeds, Watchdog.....all the Ubisoft games are all similar somehow...
    Boring predictable main story line with endless soulless side quests. Expensive game price but cant play as they are using potatoes for the server. but good graphic with good optimization.

    While we wait for the hopeful announcement of a new Splinter Cell game in the future, Tom Clancy’s fans will be happy to know that Breakpoint is actually fun, now. The new Ghost Mode solved many of the issues that plagued the original version, and while it isn’t fully healed from its painful stint as a non-Ghost Recon game, the latest entry in the franchise is trying its best to course-correct. If you are one of the many people who were put off by it at launch, I would recommend you try and give it a try now – just like the eponymous Group for Specialised Tactics, Ubisoft might yet turn this near-miss of the series’ breakpoint into a franchise victory.
