\- you'll have some kind of base to manage, with characters to select for going on missions
\- you'll need to level them up to make them more effective, with weekly quests and such
\- there was supposed to be a permadeath system like in Hunt: Showdown, He says "*I think they removed it because players in playtests found it too frustrating*"

Wait we're getting a new GR?! Will it be like Wildlands? I fuckin adored Wildlands. Me and my buddy had so much fun zooming around that map and doing stuff.

 

[simpatico]

Why UE5? Ubisoft has good engines.

 

[Gp1]

Play Breakpoint. It's a AWESOME game after all its patches. I wouldn't mind a new one.

No hype at all because it's Ubisoft.

But the bit about Ready or Not has me curious. I'm a big fan of Ghost Recon, Operation Flashpoint etc. so a return to the genre's roots would be fantastic. But again it's Ubisoft, they'll probably find a way to ruin it.

 

[HRK69]

It's Ubisoft lol

 

[LordCBH]

I played BP at launch and did not like it. Never went back to it but I heard the patches made it pretty solid. Wish it was in a real world place like Wildlands. Setting it on a fictional island kinda took some of the wind out for me. But I might give it another go with the patches.

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

They repeatedly say the pace of the game plays like Ready or Not. Here's some Ready or Not gameplay...

 

[Js562]

I'm in already. Liking what I'm hearing

Same. I didn't like the forced FPP at first but it appears the game will be slow and tactical which suits my preferences.

 

[Xtib81]

I hate that this is a FPS.

 

[DarkShadowXI]

I miss the original Ghost Recons

It's so hard to get interested in anything Ubisoft touches these days, but I do hope they make a good game again some day. Very cautious about it.

 

[Jinzo Prime]

Why UE5? Ubisoft has good engines.

Yeah, that's kind of a weird rumor. Ubisoft has both Snowdrop and Anvil to make beautiful, performant games. They also have Dunia and Disrupt, but those arn't as up to date as the first two.

 

[SJRB]

Just make Wildlands 2, you stupid assholes.

"Sir, Wildlands is our most successful Ghost Recon ever"
"Excellent, let's make anything but that from here on out"

 

[LordCBH]

[Antwix]

This is looking great. Not sure about going first person for ghost recon though. Still looking forward to seeing more though. Cautiously optimistic.

I am. Too

OG Xbox Ghost Recon was first person and that's still probably the one I played the most and had the most fun with. No gun models and the vast majority of engagements are at such long distances that the enemies are just a pixel or two. But for some reason I just couldn't put it down.



Amazing stuff

 

[pudel]

Is this multiplayer only or can I just play alone as well and have some AI buddies like in Wildlands?

You'll be able to play it solo. It has a traditional campaign.

 

[GudOlRub]

It was day 1 for me at first but that last leak about the game having levels and daily/weekly quests that make levelling more effective kinda ruined it a bit for me. I'll have to wait and see.

 

[Mayar]

The game is advertised by Men_in_Boxes , and there are two options: either it's dead in a month, or everything is bad. He doesn't publish information about good games.

 

[rodrigolfp]

Breakpoint doesn't count as Wildlands 2??

I played it after all patches. It's incredible. They've also more then doubled the content free of charge.

Yeah for sure but wasnt it a bit of a rainbow six spinoff back then

 

[neo raider]

Fuck ubisoft for trying to do remote playtests on their hardware

Bitch the input lag is crazy

 

[LordCBH]

I'll add it to my Steam wishlist. $60 is tough to swallow for it right now, but ubi games go on sale quite often it seems.

 

[Arachnid]

I hate that this is a FPS.

Agreed. I still have all my OG Ghost Recon Xbox discs, I get that it started as first person.

IDC I want more Future Soldier. I want more third person shooters.

 

[Walliwallipaloo]

Where's the "Ghost Recon is my thing, but Ghost Recon 1 was the only real Ghost Recon" button?

 

[Kerotan]

You get it on sale for pennies. Grab one or two buddies and it's an incredible experience.

 

[Germuso]

The first was really good, this could have been like MGS 5 sequels.

But ubisoft

 

[Roufianos]

No interest since it's FPS. They already have Siege FFS.

 

[Gp1]

They repeatedly say the pace of the game plays like Ready or Not. Here's some Ready or Not gameplay...

I love RoN to death, but pace isn't adequate for an open space shooter where you don't need all the rules of engagement that are necessary for RoN. If they are talking about how the game should work indoors, then ok...

The perfect balance for a new GR would be Arma 3/Reforge gameplay for outdoor + RoN Level of polishing for indoors.

 

[salva]

I just hope it has a good single player element and the AI is decent.
I've been so excited and let down many times with the series.
Wildlands and Breakpoint were ok games, but I want more realism and more squad tactics/control.

Same here

I'd go as far as to say it still hasn't been beaten.

 

[diffusionx]

Wildlands was so good and they fucked it all up for then next one… hopefully they learned their lesson.

 

[Avid Reading Horse]

xcancel?

Did I stumble into a transfurry subreddit by accident?

 

[Zoanoid33]

Wildlands was cool but they really missed with the pvp mode. They had a good foundation for something like Socom but the low player count, bad maps and boring game modes all held it back.
Pretty sad to see every Tom Clancy game have some weird futuristic gadgets and drones these days as well. I really miss the old R6 and GR games that went for realism and teamwork.

Fully expect Ubisoft to fuck this up somehow but I will hope for the best.

 

[simpatico]

It's hard to imagine Ubisoft has enough employees who want to passionately work on the kind of Ghost Recon game we want. They can't just call up Red Storm and order a banger anymore since they killed it.

 

[cripterion]

First person only = clueless Ubisoft considering 3rd person with all the gear cosmetics was a very well liked feature in the previous games.

This industry definitely needs a reset, chasing trends, throwing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks instead of hiring passionate people who know their shit. I guess all these devs are gone now.
