    The game presents a different experience from all other Ubisoft titles before by taking the better parts of many of them and putting them in a single place.

The introduction of the leveled-gear system makes you constantly change inventory and gives a reason to try out new weapons. It also offers a bit of realism to the situation, since you are kind of playing guerilla warfare it would be logical to loot your enemies for their weapons. The environment feels alive and continuously changing, with snowstorms, rain, fog, etc. The AI is more natural (for the most part), meaning that if someone spots you, that one guy 20 miles from you will not sprint towards you with a sign saying "shoot me" just yet. Enemies learn, sometimes they will hide inside houses if they know you are sniping, or stay behind cover and force you to go down and take them out one by one. These small details make for an excellent experience. Is it perfect? No, it is not, but if you give it a try and don't play it with the mindset "it is going to suck," you might notice the important things that make it a great game.… Expand

    Super realistic weapons, nice story line and huge world with stunning landscapes. Don`t forget about pvp, coop progression possibility and RAIDS incoming, boys!

    I pre-ordered the game, and have put in around 40 hours since it came out. It’s magnificent. I enjoy sneaking around in the jungle, sniping bad guys from far away, then mauling them with a sub machine gun when they figure me out. The environment is beautiful and engrossing. The AI are going to take cover when they see their buddy get shot, and try to flank or frontal assault, whileI pre-ordered the game, and have put in around 40 hours since it came out.

The AI are going to take cover when they see their buddy get shot, and try to flank or frontal assault, while moving from cover to cover. So fun. Are there transactions? Yes. Do they have any bearing on the game? No. Are they intrusive or annoying? Only if you obsess over that kind of thing. If you are good, you are good. If you suck, you suck. No amount of gear or money is going to significantly change that. Like I said, 40 hours in, PS4 says I am 28% of the way through the game. All solo, haven’t even tried the co-op yet. Well worth the money.… Expand

    This is the best ghost recon of this generation. If you loved wildlands like me this is an improvement on every aspect .

    Un buon game ed un continuo degno di wildlands anche se ci sono diversi bug e qualche problemino con il gameplay ma non possiamo lamentarci più di tanto, divertente e storyline buona.

    After seeing all the hate I assumed this game was a pile of junk and so avoided it until there was a good sale on PS4 store. I was a big fan of GR Wildlands and honestly this seems significantly better. It looks better, plays better and is a hell of a lot of fun. I'm at 122 gear lvl and finding it hard to stop playing.

    Very few bugs I've run into, the grind is actually kind of a great progression that keeps you motivated rather than a chore. Microtransactions have not been an issue, I have bought none and having a great time.
    I'm actually liking not having ai team mates because it got a bit easy to use sync shot all the time and just cheese your way though hard bases etc. Here you actually have to do a bit more work and I'm liking it.
    Maybe they've changed the game a bit but I doubt much since it's still pretty new but I'd suggest ignoring the 0 reviews especially if you liked Wildlands. To me this is quite a big step up and I'd recommend it.
    I'm even thinking about buying it for PC as well since it will probably run even better on my 1080 Ti but annoyed it isn't on steam.    … Expand

    I've been waiting curiously for the sequel to Wildlands. Overall I'm not disappointed, although it can't keep up with its predecessor except for graphics.

The AI is still a little stupid, sometimes you walk right ahead of them without being recognized.
    What I personally don't like is the story. I would have preferred something real like in Wildlands - Mexican drug war, or Syrian conflict. Instead we're fighting high tech drones on some fictional island, well...
    The PVP mode is great though, bigger maps and you can play the same character with the same upgrades as in campaign. Alone for the PVP it's worth it. Just make sure all your weapons are Mk3 before you start playing online, or you'll mess up your K/D like me.

    Stop shedding tears over Wildlands, the game is from 2016 and the graphics are just not up to date anymore. Breakpoint is a good sequel, with some flaws. If you like playing co-op with a friend or tactical PVP then you'll have fun with this game.    … Expand

    No se que les pasa a los jugadores, ¿que esperaban? Es el jugo mas realista que existe respecto a su género, un obra de arte en todo sentido, obviamente tendra un que otro bug, pero bueno, que se puede esperar de gente que solo se dedica a criticar y no de disfrutar juegos como se solía hacer en los años 2.000

    I bought the game in December 2020 on PS4 and honestly I rarely had so much fun in collaborative multiplayer mode to do the campaign!
    The game is now very good since 18 months and it offers an open world, beautiful, with a multitude of approaches (infiltration? Parachute jump from helicopter? approach by boat? Capture an armored jeep with a Gatling gun for a frontal assault?), the possibility to customize your equipment, your outfit. The scenario is quite good and above all there are many missions that leave a lasting memory (ah! the infiltration of the fortress of Flycatcher!)

    I can only recommend this game to a group of 4 friends who want a game with $15, full of possibilities, missions, and with such a choice of weapons/holdings/equipment that there is no need for micro-transactions (those are much less present than many games: Fifa & co). A big yes for this great game that deserves much better than 56 !    … Expand

    gun blueprints from lvl 200 guys even as a lvl 2. They allow you to skip hunting them on the map with $$,that is not pay to win, also no guns are blatantly better and OP compared to others, your ability to aim matters most. There are a lot of mtx, don't get me wrong, but it is all ALL optional and does not give you any sort of real PvP advantage.
    You can only buy the blueprints either way.
    Also can NOT (currently) buy skill points (you get them insanely easy and all the time, I have the entire current skill tree unlocked, 55 more skill points with nothing (currently) to spend them on, and still getting more from the many activities that give them.
    You earn MANY (most even) skins and blueprints by playing, not paying.
    No current xp boosts, though you CAN buy ingame credits, it is not worth it since they are easy to come by via main missions (and pvp also if into it)

    That all aside, the game is not without glitches but more are minor annoyance than anything, I have yet to see game breaking issues. The game really shines in Coop, along with PvP.
    The PvE story is actually interesting, and I normally skip story **** on all games, even RPGs, but I am enjoying the story in this one, much to my own surprise.

    The PvP has been really addictive and a lot of fun, I can't wait to see more modes and maps released.

    Graphically the game is gorgeous, but can have some odd texture issues even on all ultra settings,things occasionally look a tad grainy where they should not at a distance that should be properly rendered but it generally does not stay that way and I expect will be addressed.

    Overall, myself and my friends that picked it up have really loved it, the RPG aspect is not overly complicated but gives you a greater sense of growth, in our opinions. You upgrade guns as in if i upgrade this G28 DMR, ALL G28 DMRs i pick up in future are upgraded, so it's not a big deal, can play around with guns freely, and gun lvl itself does not matter in PvP, a lvl 2 or a lvl 150 are the same, just the 150 will work better vs higher enemies in PvE (mostly drone/body shots)

    The system is a solid upgrade from wildlands, with still more room to improve

    The AI is a tun of fun, huge improvements over the trash in Wildlands.

    Would recommend the game to anyone even mildly a fan of the series

    I write this review as a max lvl, 160 gear score player (not max gs btw) who plays on at least advanced difficulty, and has just had a ton of fun thus far.

    9 review simply because there are quite a few bugs, even if they are mostly graphical and not a big hindrance,it needs some cleaning up.    … Expand

    I don't understand the initial review bombing. The map is large, with many missions and additional content. It's perfect for a cooperative game with 3 more friends (4 in total) . We had more than 300 hundreds hours of fun !

    Ghost Recon Breakpoint offers a vast universe, where the survival aspects have been strengthened from GR Widlands. If the game suffers from a perfectible AI and a clear feeling of "déjà-vu", it doesn’t take anything away from its effectiveness. It works well, especially in coop, while the PVP is viciously nervous. An imperfect title, but with great moments, and a huge potential if handled with care by Ubisoft in the coming months.

    Ghost Recon Breakpoint is coincidentally living up to its name, being a failure and potential gravedigger for the famous franchise. Riddled with Pay-to-Win microtransactions tacked on looter shooter gameplay and pretty under average storytelling, even Jon Berenthal wasn’t enough to arise this gameplay up to some decent playable heights.

    At its best, Ghost Recon Breakpoint is a taut and tactical shooter that works brilliantly in co-op and is genuinely enjoyable to play but at its heart this is just another sandbox shooter and one that doesn't meet the technical standards we're used to from Ubisoft.
