With hundreds of villages and well-known landmarks, local legends and various factions and regions, players venture into a vast world with which to interact and explore. The Ghosts’ upgradable skills, along with a vast arsenal of weapons, vehicles and drones, help them defeat their almighty enemy. Gamers can play the entire game solo or they join up with as many as three friends in co-op to roam freely in this vast playground. [Ubisoft] Expand

    Ghost Recon Wildlands does not really innovate. However, it offers enjoyable tactical stealth gameplay set in an impressive, vast world, and provides a fun, memorable and rewarding experience in both co-op and solo playthroughs. Main missions are well-designed and offer great variety and challenge, and although the story is rather predictable, it has great presentation and ample amounts of information to support it. It is, in its core, a true Tom Clancy title and worthy successor to the Ghost Recon series.

    Wildlands is a great mix-up of some of the best elements of Ubisoft's most prominent IPs, but struggles to find its own identity. Military-minded co-op fans will definitely want to check this out, while solo players can also expect up to 50 hours of open-world fun.

    Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands is equal parts new approach to a storied franchise and familiar and well-trod open world systems. While it doesn’t break a great deal of new ground for the genre, when played with friends this cooperative open-world game can be an amazing amount of fun. Those moments are tempered by technical mishaps and inconsistencies that can be patched, but as a result, this launch ride is going to have some technical potholes that put a damper on an otherwise excellent experience.

    Many issues, like linear progression and limited AI, that I have with Wildlands are issues rooted to the ‘open-world’ genre, and therefore not worth holding against Ubisoft. Wildlands offers a tight finesse for a shooter, and is sure to be enjoyed by gamers; however, it does little to go beyond this.

    Fun shooting and open world are great, but there aren’t many Ghost Recon elements and game simply feels dull at times.

    Proof that bad writing can ruin anything, Ghost Recon Wildlands feels like the death knell for a particular style of open-world game. Occasionally great moments, like the co-op play and the Sync Shot, are sadly drowned out.

    GTA 5 might be best game of all time overall, but game like this will be forever in my heart no matter what. Highly recommending!

It's not perfect, but if Ubisoft continue to improve upon this design in the next iteration of Ghost Recon, it has the potential to be a GOTY contender. Expand

    [ Continued from review by Ajje, containing summary and likes ]

    Essence of the game: Kill all drug cartel fiefs (everyone cartel related really).

    Disliked:
    * Infinite respawn. If you die, all your clearing is for naught. If you move a couple of meters away from an area you've cleared, your labor is for naught since all enemies and threats re-appear. This utterly kills the sense of achievement, and makes any kind of military strategy pointless. Take out 3 SAM sites in the belief that you can safely fly in the area. Haha, they're too far apart, so the first will respawn as you reach the third. Sigh.
    * Respawns in the most illogical location (e.g. in a small closet you just cleared, as soon as you turn your back to it). Greatly diminishes use of tactics.
    * The horrid zombie wave of cops in GTA is here re-skinned into Unidad (corrupt Bolivian military), but they've been tuned up to be even more relentless than in GTA. This attribute coupled with the random spawning issue makes this game mechanic totally game and immersion breaking at times. Aweful aspect of the game which you'll come to hate with a passion.
    * No way to progress time. This is particularly annoying if you prefer doing certain activities in daylight and others at night. E.g. infiltration at night time and scouting at day. I hope UBI will fix this in future titles, as I had to leave the game running for half an hour, doing something else while waiting for the game to cycle 12 hours. Just a pointless time wasting limitation that greatly reduced the enjoyment.
    * The enemy AI I would say is OK compared to other FPS titles, but there's one annoying aspect to it. The AI has an incredible ability to immediately spot where you are if an enemy finds a dead buddy, or if you covertly snipe them from way afar. Either this was poor design, or a gimmick by UBI to force you into a shoot and move tactic. It's just not realistic that they can 100% pin-point your location by finding a dead comrade, or seeing a buddy hit the dirt by a single sniper bullet. Some uncertainty would be advised when UBI tunes their next title, as not even the best real world sniper will find his enemy from a single gun echo and bullet crack.
    * Horrid vehicle handling. Especially aircraft (planes and helicopters). Land vehicles were not great either. Rockstar and Bohemia have nailed vehicle driving. Why does UBI continue to fail when the have blueprints from the competition?
    * Cheap tricks employed to extend the game time. All the backtracking, the A+ search the level team used for placing items maximally away from you. Spawning zombies into the middle of your mission area (Unidad appearing out of nowhere when you're trying to infiltrate a Santa blanca stronghold, and calling in their infinite dead army, leading to you having to reload the game).
    * That the skill tree is gated by you having to do the most boring fetch quests (stop the same friggin convoy a billion times), where you need to increase a combination of 4 different counters. Each fetch quest gives you a small bump in one of those stats.

    Final verdict from me is a solid 7.4 / 10

    Este jogo te, uma ideia muito boa porém executada de forma errada, depois de um tempo as missões por sim só acabam enjoando por serem muitoEste jogo te, uma ideia muito boa porém executada de forma errada, depois de um tempo as missões por sim só acabam enjoando por serem muito repetitivas é apenas "vá lá vasculhe uns aquivos de informações em determinado posto avançado" ou "destrua determinada mercadoria" até achar determinada pessoa, consegue ser um shooter muito genérico não esboçando nenhum realismo em questão de cadência de tiro ou recuo. O que era para ser seu forte que era a questão stealth é bem fraco também com uma inteligencia artificial muito fraca dos inimigos sabendo em muitos momentos onde exatamente onde você está ao serem chamados atenção, corpos de inimigos no chão simplesmente somem não dando pára você esconder.
    Falando do mapa em si é muito variado e muito bonito explorando muito bem a vegetação do pais onde se passa dando uma imersão muito boa do jogo acho que um dos pontos mais forte do jogo.
    Agora em questão da versão PC é realmente lamentável muitas quedas de quadros muita vezes não conseguindo segurar os 60fps nas mais variadas resoluções possíveis rodei ele em duas configurações diferentes sendo:

    Processador: FX 6300
    Memoria: 8GB DDR3 1600MHz
    Placa de Video: GTX 1050TI 4GB

    Porcessador: I5 7400
    Memoria: 12GB DDR4 2400MHz
    Placa de Video: GTX 1660 OC 6GB / 2000 mhz

    E tive uma péssima experiencia com essas duas configurações ficando de 35 a 80 frames na segunda configuração e na primeira de 30 a 50 frames.
