If you can't figure out how to use periods or commas or how to form possessives, you probably shouldn't be labeling a published, functioning AAA game a "disaster."
I found the enemy AI pathing way worse.
When one enemy spots you, he/she telepathically informs half the globe as to where you exactly are. Every other enemy will then fire directly at you. That's just bullshit. You can handle it with regular enemies, but those purple fucks will wreck you mercilessly. They also follow you for miles.
On PC it said my save was corrupted so I'm guessing no.
Yeah I'm definitely not buying this after having played this beta. Vehicles handle like trash and the lack of a decent cover system just makes this game seem half arsed.
I'm still struggling to understand why, after the brilliant cover system in The Division, we went to nothing in a Ghost Recon game. WTF?
doesn't watch dogs 2 also feature telepathic enemy ai? is this the new ubisoft standard? ...
This is probably right, I still don't understand why a publisher would do that. A) the feedback for an out of date version is not that useful, and b) you show your game in a worse light than necessary. B is especially weird when you use betas as promotional tools, as I suspect Ubi is doing here.I Totally understand what you are saying!! but still its not the Final (Gold) build unless stated by the Publisher. There are cases where betas are released of the older version of then games even though they are about to get release.

But reading the comments one can only hope that the final version is way more polished than the beta.

played a bit, & i'm struggling to understand how the same developer that made the division made this game. huge step down, in multiple ways (both technical & afa gameplay)...
Im a little surprised by all the negative impressions in here. The game is basically watch dogs meets far cry. I thought it was fun enough, graphics are good I don't understand the arguments there. Vehicle controls suck I'll agree and the lack of a cover system is baffling, but if you have a friend and want a fun coop shooter you could do a lot worse.
The car physics are so messed up that I managed more spins driving to the mission than the James Corden insurance advert & then had no issues sprinting full speed through an outpost meleeing every single enemy without resistance. This wasn't on the hardest difficulty but it was above normal.
Open world looks great, but the gameplay mechanics are serviceable at best, like every Ubisoft game. It doesn't have the fun factor of Just Cause, the polish of MGSV or the tactical elements of the older Ghost Recons or an Arma game. It's not a bad game though, just the usual type of product everyone will rave about for the launch weeks before forgetting entirely about it.

4. Difficulty
The difficulty has been tweaked and improved to offer players a real challenge, especially at the highest difficulty levels.
- Removed enemies areas in mini-map in Extreme difficulty mode.
- Improved difficulty balancing for AI and missions.
- Improved stealth break situations.
Is this down?! Decided to check it out and getting server error...
this is my impression from the open beta thread
Their error messages cause more confusion than help. Honestly just "can't connect" would be more helpful rather than 3 different messages I got.Servers are undergoing maintenance, yep.

Just played the PS4 Open Beta for a while. It was OK but the controls are kinda wonky and I didn't find the game looked that great. Watching streams of the game on PC make it look ok but on PS4 it looks kinda like a remastered PS3 game. The only two games I've been playing the last month or so is Battlefield 1 and The Division. This beta looks nothing like them. I know "It's a beta" but doubt much will change between now and release.

I must be strange, have great fun playing this game, perhaps in spite of various "issues".
Yeah, one of the main reasons to just wait for price drop, I've seen one too many of these kind error messages...

I mean, I don't know about others but telling me it's Watch Dogs meets Far Cry isn't selling me very well on a Ghost Recon game.
