Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Lootpoint Beta

[LowPolyOWG]

Soo, UBI*bleep* decided to turn Ghost Recon into The Division 2/Far Cry/Borderlands 

Basically, the game plays like a 3rd person Far Cry game with looter shooter elements. Also, permanent online connection is mandatory for this game Being a fully functional AAA title beta, I encountered some bugs. One bug was how you earn XP with vehicular kills. Shoot the vehicle until it explodes with the NPCs inside with a normal weapon? Nope, no XP for you. Explosives/direct hits on the NPCs: Have some XP. Which sucks, as I have shot down some helis and not been granted XP for the kills Which makes absolutely no sense. Another thing, I scrolled the Battle Pass menu. Beta just crashed. Vehicles handles like Wildlands, so expect clunky controls. Even character movement feels slowed down, compared to Wildlands.

Vendor, with inventory that changes now and then. Going by the isolation of the island, how would she get her supplies?

New gagdet, a Carl Gustav. Community wanted a rocket launcher as Wildlands only had a grenade launcher for anti-vehicle purposes. Or, the .50 cal snipers

The "Battle Pass" menu, called Battle Rewards. Tied to some small side quests here and there, it gives you rewards.

Seems like all games are trying to be every other game now.

So, is this an addon/DLC to the original game?

Seems like all games are trying to be every other game now.

there are still exceptions, like Kingdom Come Deliverance, but who knows for how long. The devs (Warhorse Studios) did an amazing job, then allowed themselves to get bought by Koch Media (who own Deep Silver, their games publisher branch) That might change how they're going to w0#k in the future.

Depends on how you look at Ubisoft games Yes, it is the sequel to Wildlands. Currently playing the closed beta.

Well, going by Ubiquitous Software standards, it's a *fine* game 

Anyway, been fighting some bullet spongy behemot robots They even ate rockets for dinner.

Yes, that robot was a bullet spongy *bleep*. Anyway, the game encourages you to shoot the weak spots for massive damage and the sniper class ability is 3 rounds of high damage armor piercing ammo.

They are fixing things?! Seems like movement will now return to more Wildlands style

[Art Blade]

just a marketing gag.

Anyway, won't buy this game for full price. With Upay+, I basically get the gold edition for like €14.99, which is like 1/6 of the MSRP.

[Art Blade]

cool. that uplay+ seems to be just the right thing for you

[LowPolyOWG]

Yeah. Even AC Odyssey was the gold edition too

[Art Blade]

nice one
