    Another franchise ruined by microtransactions and it's always Online :( The story is pretty much non existent and they've turned it into a looter shooter just to shove more microtransactions down our throats. Avoid this game don't support Ubisoft anymore

    I paid for the gold edition, and yet, they want to sell me every gun in the game, i already paid for them and these guys have the nerve to charge again, add to that the requirement of online only, which makes no sense nor serves any purpose in a ghost recon game other than monetize it, they ruined the game and their reputation with their greed

    The microtransactions are unacceptable, especially because you pay 60 for the damn game.

First, the quality team absolutely failed here, as there are so many bugs, spelling mistakes, and stupid things that happen left and right. Either the quality control team failed, or management decided to rush this game to launch. The bugs are overwhelming, and simply indicates that this game was rushed to launch for some unknown reason. You will see a LOT of people complain about the microtransactions, etc., but unfortunately that is common in a lot of games. I'd actually support microtransactions if the game was solid, but will not spend a penny here. Lastly, you will also see a LOT of comments about how the AI is just terrible. You can literally sit from 200 meters away and kill one enemy at a time without any risk at all; it is just too easy, and the AI is just stupid. There are countless other examples, such as when the AI will bunch up at the base of a tower, and not advance in any intelligent way whatsoever. You'll quickly find this super boring and a waste of money after an hour or two. Lastly, the whole marketing campaign of being "hunted" and "behind enemy lines" is not true. The open world feels very empty and Ubisoft missed a golden opportunity to have "hunters" or "wolves" roaming the open world and engaging with you. Not here though. They also insinuate that the "wolves" are the elite soldiers, but they are quite weak, and quite underwhelming. If you feel very compelled to buy this game, I would strongly suggest that you wait at LEAST six months and try to buy the game on sale. We, as gamers, simply cannot support developers and publishers that launch a game in such a BAD state. Do not buy.… Expand

    Ignore the micro-transactions for a second. This game is typical, formulaic Ubisoft garbage. It's incredibly tedious. I'd rate it a 4 usually, but I'm going to balance out the fake 10 reviews and give it a 0.

    Immersion breaking game with the unneeded "Social hub". So, you're supposed to be "alone" with all your teammates either down or dead with no fire support, and then you walked into Erawhon, a Ghost Recon Disneyland. Here you can buy all kinds of wonderful weapons and vehicles and not to mention 50 other "ghosts" running around. Nope!

    Even that was disappointing, but here is the rest.

    The story makes no sense. Why is there a hub? Lol, it makes no sense whatsoever. I literally do not believe the positive reviews I've seen here are either real or have played other games in this series. I feel bad for that walking dead dude for being roped into this garbage. The writing is just out of this world bad.

    The gameplay is this obvious mashing of Ghost Recon and ... well, open world live service mechanics. It makes no sense. That should be the tagline of this entire game. Nothing makes sense... and I even like those kinds of mechanics. I don't think I'll ever be able to stop playing Warframe for instance. The Division was pretty fun, Borderlands, etc, etc. But it's just bewildering in this game.

    But in this game its just so painfully obvious they shoved all this crap into game where it *makes no sense* to just make money off you. It's the worst offender of this I've ever seen.

    If the game was GOOD it would be ruined by the mashed RPG mechanics. The game isn't even good, so this is just diarrhea.

    Add in the HILARIOUS mobile-free-to-play micro transactions and that should be it. I've never said this before but I encourage nobody to buy this game simply to discourage this behavior from publishers. It's really absurd, I do not understand how every single person doesn't feel like some jackass from Ubisoft is standing right behind you screaming "LOOK AT THIS IDIOT. THANKS MORON! HAHA" playing this.

    Bought the Ultimate Edition to play early just to find it riddled with micro transactions. Ubisoft has made it clear they don't give a single f**k about their fan base & I'll be avoiding their overpriced garbage in future. Just lost a long time fan, but with the way Ubisoft has been heading it was inevitable. If you like overpriced crap filled with micro transactions than this game is for you.

    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.
