    Do yourself a favor and skip this one. Ubisoft has failed miserably with both Watchdogs, For Honor, and the Uplay disaster. The customer support is also a disaster. Only replying to those who approve of their downscaled games. Plauged with bugs, server issues, and framerate drop offs, this is game is going to die a quick death.

    Gameplay
    - It's mostly great. Did suffer from glitches at the beginning, but it's been mostly ironed out. It's a Ubisoft game, so expect bugs.
    - Sniping and stealth gameplay is pretty good too and I love the sync shot. Your Teammate AI never misses! They are also better than human coop players.
    - However it's more fun playing with other real people to tackle missions.
    - Good graphics for a open world game and the map is huge. Biggest i've seen in any open world game. It cool to go sky diving or gliding. landscape and scenery is gorgeous. A bit like Uncharted, but better I think.

    - There are lots of enemy bases scattered around the map.

    Con
    - Side missions are way way way too repetitve and grind-ish.
    - Main missions do sort of get repetitive, but the it flows better because it adds an element of infiltration into more unique enemy bases.
    - main missions need to incorporate skydiving, driving or bike riding more to vary the mission style. The same goes for vehicle use. Everyone just uses a helicopter to travel.

    The Story
    It's a bit bland to be honest. There is some great voice acting, but the dialogue between your agent and your fellow agents is extremely limited and repetitive. They always say the same thing. There is particular teammate AI who jokes a bit, but other than that we don't learn about each character and we don't feel attached despite the character customisations.

    But when you finish the game, there is not much else to do unless you start a new game.

    Best part of Ghost recon wildlands is sniping for sure. But understandably it's really hard snipe enemies if your draw distance is limited to 500m. It does help with a teammate.

    Overall great concept from Ubisoft, but wished it had a more RPG element to it to make the game more memorable.    … Expand

    This game was fun to play but missions are very repetitive. The story was interesting but just like the missions the dialogue and banter between you and your team is a lot of rinse and repeat.

    Not good,not bad. Nice country that the game is set in. Fun to play the campaign with friends,even though it's full of bugs and glitches,and sometimes very dumb AI. Missions are more or less all the same. Clear the area- kill the main guy in the region. Rinse and repeat.

    I came to this party late, but so far pretty impressed. Now it is a few years old and the UBISOFT servers are terrible trying to play with others but the story mode keeps me busy and entertained. I give it a 7/10 because of the servers being difficult to connect today.

    Really enjoyable game, I say this as a fan of the series since playing the first Ghost Recon on the Xbox 360.

    I love how the weapons handle and that enemies are not bullet sponges, the open world is cool however I did find myself getting annoyed with the amount of "traveling to way point" moments.

Enjoy mostly useless skill points with little impact on game play but no skill to improve weapon reloading time and bear the misery by collecting skill points scattered around in the world, stroll around in planes, copters, boats, bikes and many vehicles with clumsy controls and get dive into Mad Max by engaging in vehicular combat & road rage every time you drove around.

    The Game is filled with unique features like copters fly faster then planes AND Best of all which no science fiction have ever Imagined of is teleportation Where your squad will teleport to every vehicle you chose to drive or fly.

    Enjoy dated graphics and test your patience at a whole different level by bearing three loading screens and a skip scene before game starts, by dying and reviving, Bugs like game stuck sometimes and weapon chests don't appear or don't open AND thats not all toast your ear drums by listening trash on the radio and every where you go, finely get relief by turning music settings to zero.

    Bust up with fun by playing repetitive story missions, extremely dull & repetitive side missions & poorly executed cut scene which developers just wanted to get rid off. Ubisoft had you covered every where enjoy one wheeling on a bike for extended period on the salt flat without getting disturbed AND IF you love rain then you are in luck b/z the only weather effect this game can provide is RAIN RAIN And Only Rain.

    MEET the richest gorillas on the plant as they can provide you with armored vehicles and copters but no land vehicle when you need it.Test your skills by triggering gun battle with unlimited number of corrupt special forces as there are no heavy weapons in the game like rocket and grenade launchers.

    AND Enjoy the fruits of terror you unleashed by not worrying about bosses b/z they are ALL Scared like little girls hiding behind desk or a car and will tell you every thing without any resistance just easy peasy.

    It's time to move on Ubi and be creative again. Assassins creed died when the deeper Desmond story was gone, Farcry 4 and primal were also generic so go back to hiring some good writers and creative people to come up with new ideas which will improve your company in long term.    … Expand

    I can truly understand why professional reviews score it so highly as professional reviewers often don't get to spend a lot of time with a game prior to making a judgement. If I were judging the game by my impressions after completing only one or two provinces, I'd likely give it an 8 as well. However, the problems begin to show as the game wears on, even with a dedicated group of friendsI can truly understand why professional reviews score it so highly as professional reviewers often don't get to spend a lot of time with a game prior to making a judgement. If I were judging the game by my impressions after completing only one or two provinces, I'd likely give it an 8 as well. However, the problems begin to show as the game wears on, even with a dedicated group of friends playing regularly for a few hours a night, as was my case.

    Frankly, once you've fully completed your first province, you've seen everything the game has to offer. By the time you've done enough to defeat your first underboss, you'll probably be tired of the gameplay. Every province might look different but they all play the same. The same mission types, the same rebel ops, the same convoys, the same side missions. There's no real variation, every mission is either stealth to area X and do Y, kill or capture X, or steal item X. Almost all of them use the exact same mechanics as every other side mission, so your main missions might involve hijacking a truck which operates identically to taking down a convoy.

    Each province is littered with crap to collect, more guns than you'll ever likely use with most of them utter garbage. A quick glance of your UI pretty much tells you the best guns in the game and tells you in which provinces they can be found.

    Enemy AI, even on higher difficulty levels, is pathetically stupid. Especially the supposed military force, UNIDAD, who I've literally had stand over where I was hiding in a bush and not see me. The story, if you want to call it that, is pretty much a mashup of the movies "A Clear and Present Danger" and "SICARIO". There are also a plethora of bugs to be found that frequently causes mission problems and mission failures. One example off the top of my head: One particular mission where you have to deliver a truck without being detected. We stopped a good 600 meters away and silently took out all of the enemies at the drop off point, but when we drove the truck into the lot it instantly failed and said we had been detected somehow. We did the same thing on a subsequent attempt - EXACTLY the same, down to firing from the same place - and it completed.

    Bugs and hackneyed story aside, it's the sheer rote gameplay that brings it down. By the time my 2 other friends and I had managed to take down a department head, we were all desperately bored of the game. Tonight, as I type this, one of them is off playing FF15 instead and I'm not at all enthused about logging into Wildlands, especially not if it means playing solo with the friendly AI that's just as dumb as the enemies.

    I can't recommend buying this until it's cheap in the bargain bin. This is a prime example of the problems with massive open world games. The size of the playable area doesn't ensure a quality experience.    … Expand

Then you have to drive his car back on the same roads you just drove. Followed by the next mission where you have to kidnap someone and--you guessed it--DRIVE EXACTLY THE SAME ROADS But this isnt the worst of it--the worst is trying to fly a plane--google it--no is doing plane missions because the flying controls are so ridiculously bad and unpredictable. I paid 35$ for it, and by this point am close enough I;ll endure just to see the end.

    Below average product, the customization is not deep, the world is boring, the gameplay is stiffy, storytelling is one of the worst issues, the only thing how you can have lots of fun is playing with friends and mock out of the ridiculiness of the game, way worst than The Division or Phantoms.

There's not much to enjoy about this game. It's a great idea, and it had me pretty excited about it when it was first announced at E3 2015. Then, The Division came out, which is one of the worst games I've ever played. When I saw that the same team behind that atrocity was working on Wildlands, I lost all hope. And while I will say it's better than The Division in some ways, let's be honest, that's not a hard bar to pass over.

    So let's start off with what's good. The graphics do look a lot better than they have in other Ubisoft games, and really bring the world to life. Customisation is also very well realised. The character creator isn't anything special, but you can customise your clothes any time and unlock more as you play more of the game (and sign up for Uplay). Weapon customisation is also great, and is one of the better ways that Ubisoft has handled it.

    Now let's look at the bad. The story is garbage, which i was already expecting, even if the game turned out to be good. The only interesting parts are the backstories of the cartel leaders, but thats a very small portion of it. The ending is extremely lazy, and is basically just a way of saying you wasted $60. The open world has nothing to do in it besides missions. No extra activities, no challenges to complete, no nothing. All you can do are story missions, and side missions, both of which involve you going to a base, taking out some dudes, getting what you need, and leaving. It's repetitive, boring, and made me wanna quit the game after I did three. When you are shooting guys, its not fun or satisfying. It seems that Ubisoft will never understand that shooting the same guy over and over again isn't fun. Now let's talk about the absolute worst part of Wildlands: the driving. I think anyone, and I mean anyone, would agree that the driving controls in this game are some of the worst ever made. They're so slippery, so you'll find yourself driving off cliffs and running into things constantly with barely any control of your vehicle. And considering that most of the mission objectives are so far apart from each other, you HAVE to drive everywhere, Or just fly a helicopter there, but that's not a better option.

    Overall, this is nothing more than another sh*tty Tom Clancy game that Ubisoft is frequently adding to their list. I hope they realise that this formula is getting old, and that they need to try something new, but that's not going to happen. Until then, we're stuck with games like this. 4/10.    … Expand

    I'm not exactly sure where all of the hate comes from for this game. Maybe they just don't like Ubisoft due to the over exaggerated Watchdogs situation, or maybe Uplay. No idea.

    Ghost Recon: Wildlands to me is a lot of fun. I have about 15 to 20 hours into the game, which to today's standard is pretty long. With that time though I haven't even gotten through two of the lower level bosses. I will go down the list of important traits to explain why I like the game so much and give it such a high rating.

    Content: Ubisoft did an amazing job of filling this game with stuff to do. Some might complain "it's the same thing over and over" and then go play CoD multiplayer. Whether you're doing a story mission, or going for a weapons crate, the map is filled with icons that represent something you can do, and on top of that you can unlock more by completing interrogations and getting information from informants along the way, granting even more content.

    Customization: This is one of the most highly customizable shooters I have ever seen at launch. head gear, tops, bottoms, colors. The only complaint I have is there are only few facial options to choose from, but otherwise the customization is very very good.

    Graphics: I play Wildlands on a Ps4 Pro, I have a gaming PC but none of my PC friends are that into shooters. The game looks great on Ps4 Pro in just about every aspect. Ubisoft did a great job in making sure they didn't stick players in the same environments throughout the entire map and were able to nicely design everything from the desert to snowy mountains, and it all looks great.

    Bugs: Surprisingly I haven't run into too many bugs so far in the game. I am sure there are plenty, as with most games, just a matter of finding them. No developer is immune to bugs, so I never hold it against a dev unless there's a ton of them, which doesn't seem to be the case.

    Co-op: I have only played solo and with one other player. So I can't speak for up to four players, but I have seen some youtube videos of players getting into shenanigans with their friends in four player co-op. To me four player is the ideal way to play, with the difficulty jacked up a bit to really get you into it and thinking on how to complete a mission.

    AI: This is an area that I think Ubisoft Paris can improve on. Sometimes the AI just sits in one area, never moving, I have been able to sneak up behind them easily very often and just pop them in the head, and this is after engagement and they have moved to cover. It's as if once they get to cover the code stops and they barely even pop up to shoot. I am hoping with difficulty increases that this changes.

    Vehicles: I am a little disappointed that four wheelers aren't in the game, or I at least haven't found one yet. Aside from that I have been pleasantly surprised with how good the driving is for ground vehicles, it's not jerky and driving fast is smooth. The Helicopter isn't hard to drive, but takes some getting used to, as I went in thinking GTA V helicopters. The plane is much like GTA V.

    Banter: As a Marine veteran I can appreciate Ubisoft trying to capture the banter between the Ghosts, and it is a much needed part of the game, but I have to admit some of it is so damn cheesy.

    Overall I have really enjoyed the game and I think Ubisoft did a great job making a beautiful game that has a lot of content that will keep you busy for a long time, and that's not including any DLC they will release. I definitely recommend you give it a try. I always tell friends who are hesitant with a game to pick it up at a redbox or gamefly it, this way you can get a look for yourself.

    Wishlist: Four wheelers, more eccentric character customization options. Missions that require parachuting (there isn't much reason to since the helicopters are plenty and convenient).    … Expand

    The varied environments and weapon customization in this game are awesome but everything else is either average or below.

I tried to go full out with a motor bike to see myself fly off like in GTA...you do fly off, but instead of rag dolling you have a scripted way of dying like you've been stabbed in the chest. The helicopter flying...sucks. I got a helicopter with 2 miniguns and you can't even First person to aim it correctly at your target. You just pushing down and spray and pray hope for the best and kill mostly civilians (wow just like real life).

    Not to mention the various glitches and bugs but that's standard with Ubisoft games these days. Getting stuck in a hole, if you're not playing MP you have to quit the game. During MP if you're stuck you can fast travel to your team mate.

    The only thing great about this game is the MP. Playing with mates is fun, especially the bragging rights of sniper kills and the mockery of the team mate who misses the shot and raises the alarm.

    Overall, I'll give this game a 5. I'll probably platinum it before I return it. Ubisoft are really going soft with their games.

    This game is so frustrating. I wanted to love it, I still do. Especially given my love for The Division. But, it is sooooooo repetitive. I cannot stress that enough. You will literally do the same thing over and over and over and over....

    The graphics are amazing, the map is beautiful. The open world is definitely open and probably a bit too big and open. This game offers nothing to work for unless you are just playing to get better guns. You can seriously play a couple missions and fly right over to the end boss. There is pretty much no unlocking the map, all you do is cross the border and BAM! New area opened.

    And the dialogue....oh. my. god. is it terrible. No emotion at all. You will hear the same talk and dialogue on the radio when driving so much and it never changes that you will want to mute the TV. And don't even get me started on the terrible driving controls....

    The concept is good, the graphics good, the story is decent, but the missions are the same over and over. Go here and kill this guy, or go here and capture this guy...that's it.

    The ONLY reason I gave it a 5 and not a 4 was because of the beautiful landscape.    … Expand

    The banter between the characters feels forced. Not for me. Sold my copy.

    Ghost Recon: Wildlands excels in the sheer size of it and has a ton of content which offers you and your friends endless possibilities and lots of fun. The gameplay, on the other hand, is often repetitive, which causes the game to be just a little less than fantastic.

    A buggy, uninspiring and formulaic shooter. [Issue#186, p.74]

    Variations on base clearing, enemy tagging, and weapon tinkering. Old, yet effective. [May 2017, p.70]
