Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands Review

[Guri]

Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands is a massively open-world, third person shooter. You are in a squad with 3 other members (these 3 members are either other players or AI witch player can control) and are tasked with completing missions across fictional Bolivia. There is a story here but this game in my opinion is primarily a co-op sandbox game.

Open World To Beat All Open Worlds?!

This game has the biggest open world you will ever see, but the best part is that it is fully accessible from the moment you jump into the game. The game world is filled with missions, collectibles and conflict zones in every nook and corner. There is always something to do in the world of Ghost Recon: WIldlands. There is an overarching story that affects the game world, but that story never restricts your freedom. You and your buddies are free to go to a high-risk areas with nothing but pistols and try and fight your way through it at any time. You don’t have to wait for the right story mission or worry that finishing a particular mission will block off an area. The world is also littered with stuff to collect which I will touch on in the next section.

Craft Your Gun Without Really Crafting It

As I have already mentioned the world is filled with stuff to collect and discover. Most of the collectibles are in the form of resources, guns or gun modifications. This game offers so much choice when it comes to your preference of guns. The game makes it feel like you are crafting your gun despite there being no crafting system in the game. That is how detailed and plentiful the mods are to each gun, as well as the variety of different gun types that are at your fingertips. Just be sure to turn on the markers in your options menu, or else you might miss out on most of the guns and resources, as they won’t be highlighted. This is one of the few gripes I have with it. The markers have to be either all on or all off. You need them on to find stuff in this amazing open world, but the problem with that is that it pretty much gives you x-ray vision which is not something most gamers want.

Is There Something For You?

There is definitely something to do in this world at any given time, BUT is there something for you? While this game does have a single-player mode I can’t recommend this game at full price just for that experience. The place where this game truly shines is the multiplayer and co-op. Do not treat this game as a tactical shooter. Treat this game as a destruction sandbox where you and your mates go to have a good time.

Worth Buying?

As for whether or not it is worth buying only you can decide. If you are not going to be playing with friends then I’d recommend waiting for a sale, but if you are okay playing with random players online or can convince a few of your buddies to get the game then I can’t recommend this game enough. This game will give you a lot of laughs and a great time that shouldn’t be missed out on.
