Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Breakpoint Reviews
Ghost Recon: Breakpoint is a well made successor to Wildlands that doesn't really manage to iron out every flaw of its predecessor. Countless bugs and lifeless NPCs reduce the otherwise great realistic shooter experience. If you are looking for a good tactical shooter at the moment you should still definitely get this game, no matter if you want to play it in Singleplayer or in Co-Op online with friends.

There is no saving Ghost Recon Breakpoint. It’s a disgustingly predatory experience wrapped around an expansive world with the soul of a corporate PowerPoint. It’s got all the features modern open world games have, but with none of the heart. If Ubisoft were aiming to make the dullest experience possible, well done, they’ve achieved their goal with flying colours.
Breakpoint, in its nature has an interesting and enjoyable gameplay that unfortunately hasn't been well integrated in the world of the game. Tiresome side quests, depthless and cliche story, forgettable characters and various technical issues doesn't let the game offer a refreshing experience for the players. However, lack of competitive and strong titles in tactical shooter genre is the reason for this series to become the only option for the fans of this genre. Abundance of shameless microtransactions is another reason to reduce the experience for the players to the lowest amount possible.

Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint proves adding more isn’t always better, with the addition of half-baked loot and survival mechanics that don’t really provide anything of note to the game.
More of the same with some unnecessary missteps, Ghost Recon Breakpoint feels like one step forward, two steps back for the Ubisoft tactical shooter.
Ghost Recon Breakpoint mostly feels like yet another AAA game that was released too soon. However, despite its faults, glitches and an awful push towards microtransactions, there's just enough fun in this open-world tactical shooter to warrant checking it out.
Instead of feeling like a sequel, Ghost Recon: Breakpoint fails to improve on anything and delivers a boring sandbox game with little to no reason to keep playing. The fact is, Ubisoft has much better games on the market that deliver not only better open worlds to explore but just better shooters including Division 2 and Wildlands. Trust me, you will have a much more enjoyable time playing the 2017 Ghost Recon game.
Ghost Recon Breakpoint is an agonizingly boring experience that drags and features a story of complete nonsense.
Ghost Recon has moved far away from its tactical military roots, and if you are returning to the series after a long hiatus, you will be disappointed. However, if you’re a fan of Wildlands and modern open-world shooters, then you’ll enjoy this game. For me, it throws too much into the mix and doesn’t really nail any of it, and due to this you are left with a decent shooter which is far from the glory days of Advanced Warfighter. With that said, I award Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Breakpoint a Thumb Culture Silver Award.
Ghost Recon Breakpoint has been one of the most disappointing titles of the year, and a significant step-back for the franchise, as well as the publisher.
The empty spaces between checkpoints are dull, and the gunfights can be repetitive without a partner in crime. But behind all of its faults, even its painfully jingoistic overtones and its overtly militaristic design hides its true entertainment value.
All of that has been done away with, replaced by a nauseating terrine of pointless progression mechanics, baffling interface decisions, and clunky controls, fermented in a formaldehyde cocktail of technical issues. This game is agonizingly bad.
No matter how you turn it around, Ubisoft makes an exemplary crash landing with Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Breakpoint. What seems promising in theory, has serious problems in practice - this time Ubisoft's generic formula is much harder than expected. Ubisoft relies on a simple milkmaid calculation, which in the end doesn't work out surprisingly: more levels, more loops, more content, but also more of the bugs and the tiring uniformity. A service game through and through, where the entertainment factor has to stay on the sidelines for the benefit of the commercial idea. Hardcore fans will still be able to make peace due to the immense size of the game and the continued support, everyone else should at least wait until Breakpoint has survived his teething troubles.

It's not the best game I've ever played but it's fun, it's thrilling, action-packed and incredibly addictive.
There is great potential in Ghost Recon Breakpoint. But this potential is not well used. Also buggy gameplay and weak storytelling is not fun.

Ghost Recon: Breakpoint will probably disappoint the old school fans of the series, but for looter shooter afficionados looking for a steady supply of loot and exciting action, there's definitely something to enjoy here. Just don't expected anything more.

Breakpoint might feel like a step down from Wildlands at first with its gear level, but when the survival mechanics – as shallow as they might be – kicks in and you’re fighting your way through the jungle, it’s the best one since Advanced Warfighter.

Everything that Ghost Recon: Breakpoint does well, has already been done well in the Wildlands, or is a new feature with a big "but". Apart from a nicely crafted fictional world with a stronger story and a simple survival, Breakpoint doesn't innovate much. If you really enjoyed Wildlands, explored it through-and-through and want more of that - Breakpoint is a possible recommendation. Otherwise, you won't lose much if you skip this one.

Breakpoint lacks any real innovation and quickly becomes a grind fest for gear to improve your Gear Score. The game’s world is beautifully designed and connected by a transport network, but even the game’s gorgeous visuals struggle to hide the real issues with Breakpoint.
Ghost Recon: Breakpoint is the perfect game for hi is accustomed to online adventures in the company of a few friends. Ubisoft promises continuous support for a long time, which makes the purchase of this title a real investment. Lone wolves stay away.
