I just got the game over the weekend. I play A LOT of games and decided to give Wildlands a try after a love hate relationship with The Division. Overall I'm enjoying it. It has it's flaws but the graphics are pretty great, gunplay is fun, and the map is amazing. However, is it just me or is the game to easy? It seems every mission can be completed without being detected just by sitting back and sniping. The enemy AI is stupid even if you don't snipe. I'll go in guns blazing and kill a dude and the guy no more than 10 ft away from who I just killed struggles to even find me. The AI doesn't even notice dead bodies, the civilians don't even react or alert the enemy when you're around, you can straight up just run past people without them noticing. This game could have been so much more challenging. And it's not like Ubisoft doesn't have the ability to do these things. Anyone recall the splinter cell games made by Ubisoft? Some of the best AI they've done. If they had just implemented that into this game it would make the choice between when to use stelath and when to use fast paced action so much more meaningful. Right now the AI is so stupid it's almost impossible to fail. Ubisoft has now become the company that half asses every AAA title they release.
and tbh I find it harder with friends because they cant do magical sync shots that land 100% of the time.
I am on extreme since the beginning and I have died lots due to simple errors getting spotted and not being able to spot the enemy as efficiently. many times the enemy that kills you is the one that "hunts you" and is not spotted, 1 second later he riffled you with bullets.
I'm about 38% on extreme difficulty and the reinforcements / chopper / non spotted enemies / friends messing up are a big factor that kills me.

since after all if they run at you it means you are hunted AKA choppers and reinforcements poor in.
Guess I just need to switch difficulty. I've been playing on hard (whatever is a step above regular) and I've only played solo so far.Originally Posted by Jersmall Go to original post
Like others are saying, up that difficulty.
I play on extreme with only mission reminders (so i know what im doing) and minimap (so i know where im going).
I play mostly coop with only 1 other player, which requires a higher degree of coordination.
I also agree that single player is much easier than coop, even 4p coop.
