Honestly Ubisoft, I'm Kinda Disappointed
With TU8 I was genuinely hoping for some solid content to otherwise enrich my Arcade Editor experience, and, to be fair Ubisoft delivered... for the most part.
My grievance with this rather large update is specifically about the Vietnam AI and the absolute murder of my immersion.
To start, as promised, Ubi added the AI assets - but did so in what seems like a fairly limited way. While, yes, we do have the Vietcong and Vietnamese army enemies to fight, we have no new allies, such as Vietnam rebels or US army soldiers (Unless I somehow missed them). Not to mention the fact that we don't have access to Vietnamese officers to pop in the VIP section, and moreover, the provided enemies are very... very generic. There are not Pistoleros or Snipers to speak of, and (Again, unless I missed em) no Flamers or Heavy Gunners. What gives, Ubi?
And here, we get to my other grievence, why the FRIGG FRAGG TALLY WACK DO THE VIETNAMESE ENEMIES HAVE MODERN WEAPONS??
Sorry, but a Vietcong with an AC-R??? C'moooooonnnnn what the fekk is that??!! At least do the players a justice in providing Era-Correct weaponry, like AKs or the Mp34.
Or, even better, why not just let players customize the AI's loadouts? Now THAT would be bloody perfect.
Thanks for reading.
