I had read peopleBeen playing since it went live solo, I do plan to play coop down the road, but I wanted to let people know solo is great. I had read people hating on A.I. during beta, but just put a couple early skill points in sync shot and it works great. The stealth and sprawling open world, the banter of your teamates really make for an immersive experience. I feel like this game took the best aspects of far cry, division and watchdogs and threw out the crap. I have no regrets on this purchase, and I doubt fans of shooters, stealth and open world games will either.… Expand

It's better than Assassin's Creed, Watch Dogs, GTA, and Just Cause as it combines and improves on EVERYthing that those games are known for which is perfectly fine with me. After all, the saying does go: imitation is the purest form of flattery.
   
   Good: 1) EVERYthing is customizable (uniforms, paints/patterns, patches, and EVERY part of the weapons)
   2) 5 character save slots (great for me with 4 teenage sons)
   3) Squad controls are genious AND very timely in firefights
   
   Bad: 1) No control binding for selecting "crouch" since there is "soft cover" which means the character goes into cover just by approaching something that could technically act as cover.*
   
   *Even listing this as a "bad" feature of this game is really a technicality as Ubisoft most likely didn't have room in the controller layout to fit the cover option. Finding yourself with too much of a good thing shouldn't be bad.
   
   Long story short: this game is awesome. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐… Expand

Whatever path,I've been playing this game for the last two years and it is great. Co-Op or Solo this game is a fantastic tactical simulator. Whatever path, route, or experience you want to run in this game, your choices are at your own disposal. The game play is versatile dependent on your play style. If you want to sneak, snoop, and snipe or barrel in and unload on your enemies this is your game. The weapon variety, gear, customization still keeps me occupied. Wildlands is everything good about the Ghost Recon franchise.… 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 aI 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

My biggest gripes: The enemies know where you are the second you fire a bullet. Its not realistic whatsoever, obviously should be alerted but to be able to pinpoint you right away? come on now
   
   Also, the driving is miserable. This wouldn't be a big deal if it wasn't for the fact that every mission is a 10 minute drive minimum away from the last. So you have to spend a lot of time with the **** driving controls. I would take the division over this any day. Of the last few Ubi games i would put them The Division>Wildlands>WatchDogs2. If your bored this isn't a bad game, but if you have any other somewhat interesting games you will quickly find yourself leaving this one to play them.… Expand
