Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands Reviews
The combat and open world are sensational, with a huge amount of depth and tactical options at the player’s disposal. When joined by a group of friends that entertainment only grows. However, there is a host of little things holding the game back from being a must buy title.
While it’s tough to mix complex tactics with mainstream shooter mechanics, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands manages to offer up a tactical shooter that can appeal to a broad audience and still have something for the tactics aficionados. There’s a ton to see and do in their dystopian version of Bolivia, and it’s probably a good idea to bring a friend if you want to enjoy the game’s terrific online co-op.
This game has a ton of potential, perhaps not quite there yet, but there's always room for changes in a future patch. It feels like a remix of several Ubisoft games in one, not a bad thing per-se. A great game though, I've loved my time in the Wildlands.
Far too often it feels like you’re doing the same type of mission over and over, and this becomes more apparent when you’re playing single player but not so much online. You can see how massive Bolivia is when you stand on a high mountaintop but have to wonder why so much of it is the same.
Ghost Recon: Wildlands is sadly for me a huge disappointment for me because of what it truly could have been. I think the game would have fared much better had they made it multiplayer-only, but then it might run the risk of turning into a scenario like Evolve and end up being closed 18 months after release. It would still have made the gameplay as a whole much more enjoyable. Maybe if they didn’t match you with people much further in the game than you are, I would have opened up my game to multiplayer more, but I don’t like being pulled from pillar to post when following a linear story.

But if you're looking for anything remarkable or memorable in and of itself, you won't find it here.
There really isn’t a lot I can mark the game down for, it probably won’t get boring before the end, the gaming mechanics are great and the exploration and combat is a blast. Whilst it’s not going to win any awards for original game play or story telling it’s a game that has hours of fun to be had
Ghost Recon: Wildlands is a very monotonous game. Solid gameplay mechanics quickly give way to empty repetition as the game never really varies its core gameplay loop at all during its running time. Regardless of your specific mission objectives, you’ll never break free from the endless cycle of clearing out buildings populated by the same enemies you were fighting ten hours ago.
Ghost Recon Wildlands is an entertaining game that you can have fun time playing with your friends. There are a lot of small bugs in the game but they don't effect the gameplay that much. Everyone who likes tactical shooters should play it with their friends.

Wildlands is a great game that is worth playing, so long as you aren't averse to change.
I Never Thought that Ghost Recon: Wildlands would be that Much Fun. There is a Massive world to Explore and you won't get Tired of it anytime soon. Gameplay is so amazing and if you want to see full potential of Ghost Recon: Wildlands, play it co-op with your friends. But if you experience it on single player, the game is do much fun too, because i played both ways for many hours and both are so amazing. The map is so huge and Cartel's members are more than 20 people that every one has a big part on map under their control. You must Eliminate them one by one to finally reach the main and interior cycle. With good and constant support of Ubisoft and important updates with new contents, now Ghost Recon: Wildlands is so much better than its launch time. Unfortunately, the Driving System isn't Good Especially with Bikes but Still, Ghost Recon: Wildlands has a huge amount of good aspects that we could absolutely forget about its small problems. Ghost Recon: Wildlands is an amazing open world game and one of the best co-op shooters in this generation. It worth your time and money very well.

Ubisoft managed to create a fantastic third-person shooter with excellent story, massive open world, and a plethora of vehicles and weapons.
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands is a fun tactical shooter offering unlimited potential with a group of friends.
Ghost Recon: Wildlands gives you all the tools needed to have a lot of fun with friends, despite some design flaws, minor bugs, an inconsistent narrative and a somewhat repetitive structure. As a solo experience, it is solid but too big to keep you interested, and with random people it can be too chaotic to enjoy. It all comes down to how are you going to play and who are you going to play it with.

The freedom imbued in the gargantuan and beautiful world of Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands' Bolivia sure makes this a worthwhile purchase, but only if you plan to enjoy it with a couple of friends, and only if willing to put up with the standard issues of most sandbox titles, like repetition, repetition, and, most importantly, repetition.
Ghost Recon: Wildlands is not a great nor weak game. Ubisoft created a beautiful Bolivia with detailed environment and managed to keep the tactical nature of Ghost Recon games. The result is a good game in a big and beautiful map. The Co-op mode is fantastic but weak covering system and repetitive side missions plus problems with the technical graphics, prevent the game to be a great one.

Ubisoft showcases its long experience in Ghost Recon Wildland, starting with the biggest world in Ubisoft's history, the weapons/tools upgrades, the great visuals and the story that motivates you to finish the game's campagin. But on the other hand missions are repetitive and lacking, the enemy AI is questionable and vehicle controls are inaccuarate.

Ghost Recon: Wildlands is a bugged and flawed game, but it is capable of bringing huge amounts of fun.
As a shooter, Ghost Recon: Wildlands is tactical, refined, and precise. As a world it is open, sprawling, and filled with things to do/find. And as a co-op experience, it's arguably one of the best yet.
It should be noted that there is an upgrade system in Ghost Recon: Wildlands, but it’s so incremental that you will rarely notice the difference. By the end of the game you will have unlocked the majority of the upgrades, so no real builds are necessary. In a game so focused on co-op, it would have been nice to need builds for different characters, or abilities that would drastically change the way you took each mission. But that’s not what we get here.
