    Does ppl know how to play Ghost Recon?

    Thx Ubi for the invitation, i always love to try new products, but this one... man this one was hard to swallow. The game is good, there are some flaws here and there, but overall is pretty good, the only thing that annoys me is the people, i'm used to play Future Soldier style, MGS style, Splinter Cell style, you know the word, "Perfeccionist" "stealth" but unfortunately all the people i came across with played like they were playing Overwatch, Quake III, Doom, running and shooting everyting and anything.. man this generation seems like a brainless bunch of brutal bots from Quake III...they seem to have no idea on how to have diferent aproach, diferent strategies... anyways, i really enjoyed the game on solo, though it haven't crashed a single time, NEVER, I'll buy it sometime later when i see everything running smooth, i don't wanna live another "The Division" year.

    There are no consequences to playing run and gun, so people will do it. If you die, you just respawn; if you fail a mission, you just restart. The world is static, so no reason not to take your motorbike off a cliff into the enemy base.

    Not like they can do anything about that. Would you prefer they only allowed one death per week? No respawn....if you die even on the final boss, you have to start the entire game over?

    That's how games used to be.
    You would be given so many lives per continue and only a limited number of those, so maybe 20 lives total. If you didn't complete the game with those then yeah we had to start again. But these games were a lot smaller so generally easier to complete

    I'm not a fan of repeating mission because the failure of others. Yes i die too, but not in a dumb way that could jeopardize the mission and frustrate others players.

    Ghost mode needs more limitations that are party wide not just player, such as limited HUD and once a mission has started or been accepted you only get the one revive with no respawns. that way if you want to play more stealthy and tactical your teammates have the same settings and consequences as you and cant just run and gun.

    No, that would be silly. However, they could have made it less static -- fail one mission, you need to adapt. The next mission changes. Did you kill the lieutenant with the important intel? Well the next mission is going to be about finding that information some other way.

    Fail killing the final boss? Back to the drawing board, locate him again, try again.

    Classic PUG issue in MMO's with random players. The only way to mitigate that is A) Play single player or B) find some other players who also play like you like and play with them regularly/exclusively. Otherwise its luck of the draw.

    This is not completely accurate. You have to keep in mind that the beta area was one of the lower difficulty areas. As you get into more difficult zones, a more tactical approach will be rewarded.

    Granted the game doesn't force you to play in any one particular playstyle, but as you go on, the more tactical you are, the less potential headache you're setting yourself up for.
