Wildlands is a fun sandbox open-world shooter from Ubisoft Paris with a massive amount of content that is best experienced with other players in its seamless drop-in, drop-out four-player co-operative multiplayer mode.

It's a solid effort from Ubisoft. There's something for everyone and while it rarely excels at all of them, it manages to be a surprisingly engaging game. The overarching structure is overwrought and its fiction is one-sided but that means little when you're crashing helicopters into unsuspecting cartel outposts while your friends detonate copious amounts of explosives.

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.

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.

A game that received quite a bit of hype before its release, Ghost Recon: Wildlands may be the jewel Ubisoft needs to reignite the passion fans of the company feel towards its products. After some grumbling caused by the deteriorating quality of the Assassin's Creed games, Ubisoft needs a little more buzz surrounding it, and if the company keeps producing games as decent and immersive as Wildlands, a chance exists for them to regain their home run status. With high quality graphics and audio, a passable story, and smooth gameplay, it may be safe to assume Ubisoft is going back to producing quality over quantity.

There’s a lot to see and do in Wildlands and even after 30+ hours I’m still enjoying trekking through the rain-forest and discovering new ways to play

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

This huge, wide-open shooter constantly shows its flaws in its mission variety and vehicle physics, but its strong, sandbox-style gameplay and seamless co-op kept me coming back for more madness. If you must repeat experiences over and over, you could far worse than helicopter chases, assassination missions, or drug busts gone wildly wrong.

Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands giving you open world and guns also vehicles and super charterer customization, it's a game with so many possibilities and fun factor whether you're playing it solo or in CO-OP Mode with friends, what the game lacking is the professional shooting mechanics which are more arcade than being hardcore also the repetitive mission design hurts the game in addition to bad Ai.

Ghost Recon Wildlands is wasting a promising setting and a great weapons arsenal for a repetitive and faulty Co-Op Open World Sandbox. The countless Missions don't use the full potential you could get out of the great equipment and tools the Game has to offer.

Ghost Recon Wildlands is an open world shooter that brings together a beautifully crafted huge map and a campaing that gives the player total freedom. The depth of the adventure is a bit flawd by the repetitiveness of the mission and a broken driving system.

Vast, but very little peppered throughout. Wildlands is one that plays better with others.

Ghost Recon: Wildlands is another intriguing yet incomplete experience from Ubisoft. It's fun played with friends but if you're traveling alone to vast open world of Bolivia, we recommend to finish off the El Sueno as soon as possible before Wildlands gets frustrating over time.

Despite its very inconsistent tone, lack of polish and finicky vehicles, the solid core gameplay and gorgeous open world make Ghost Recon Wildlands a highly enjoyable co-op multiplayer tactical experience.

Ghost Recon: Wildlands is a rather fun co-op game. It's made for co-op and should be played in co-op. While I'm against the solo play, I will say that solo players will have some rough times trying to get the AI to cooperate with you. But with a squad of four players, tagging enemies, syncing shots, and doing crazy stunts like jumping out of a helicopter onto and enemy base just to see what will happen is what really makes this game special.

Quickly tiring and with no real challenge in its single player mode, Wildlands reaches its real interest in cooperative sessions with good teamplayers. Even if its numerous shortcomings will have us curse a lot and often want to quit, after a few hours we get the urge to turn the console back on to come back in Bolivia. Roaming the roads of this country with friends will occupy our time for many long hours and now we just have to hope that a few patchs can bring the whole experience to a more enjoyable level, while expecting the DLCs to bring interesting content.

When things come together, there is enjoyment to be had in Ghost Recon: Wildlands. ... You shouldn't buy Wildlands right now.

Ghost Recon Wildlands is not the best choice for people without a good team. The size of the map, multiplicity of activity, character development, and modification of armaments do not reward a great deal of clichéd gameplay and weak plot. A game created for fans of cooperation.

In the end, Ghost Recon Wildlands suffers because it plays things a little too safe and fails to make proper use of the gorgeous fictional world of Bolivia in a way that offers more than solid stealth shooting, fun co-op, and small bursts of player-created fun.
