    After 3 days...mixed feelings

    I have posted and seen posted most of the things i am about to repeat but im going to try an remain neutral in this summary...
    1...they say its not wildlands its ghost recon breakpoint...the problem with that is Nomad was in wildlands....walker was in wildlands..the ghosts were in wildlands...and now they headed to a island...hard to not see this is supposed to be part 2 of following the ghosts on missions...
    2....the gameplay is okay to say the most...lots of bugs in animations...gear visuals and overall movement..however judgement aside...its cool to see the dirt on clothes and when u go in water its washed off..they trying to make improvements ti the game...hopefully finished product will fix that...slim hopes...
    3 ...the gear level is pointless because one..it was not in any other ghost recon title and ghosts dont need leveling up they already the best of the best....two i can understand ubisoft wants to make a game badly but this method may work for some and not others...me personally im going to try and see if any of this gear score matters with enemies...i have the weapons i want an im going to see if keeping them really makes a difference with a headshot...do i like the gear thing..no...but im not ubisoft...
    4...does this feel like a sole survivor behind enemy lines game...no...its a beta of what amounts to be a tactical shooter without the tactics....i.e. Unlimited ammo...pick it up every five feet..weapons scattered all over the place...multiples of same weapons...no uniqueness to any of them....in wildlands once u found the weapon u liked u stayed with it.. Ability to carry every weapon u own and have unlocked...do i really need to say there is no tactics in that...even at most wildlands only allowed u to carry three..two primary and a pistol...but then again its not a tactical shooter so .....
    6..did ubisoft lie...sort of..they said u are sole survivor of a crash...you are..however so are the other six hundred people standing around in cave...lol...you are being hunted by wolves..you are..even though the rest of the soldiers on the island are a joke in general ...but this is a beta...lol.
    7..will i preorder this...nope...will i eventually get it..yeah probably trade in some old game disks for it...its about worth 25 dollars simply because its ghost recon breakpoint (with division gameplay)..and since i own division2 an 1. .at least i can run around the island instead of just washington d.c...
    8...will i still play wildlands..yep..its the only way to play ghost recon in a open world environment in ghost mode where i can only carry so much....like its suppose to be in a tactical special ops game thats trying to be as close to real as possible...
    9..is the game broken....compared to wildlands...yep...no true similarity between games...is it a looter shooter absolutely...thats rather obvious now that i am playing the beta..
    ......in summary...its going to be interesting to see how this plays out...its nowhere near what was expected....but then again its ubisofts wanting to get the best of all its games in one....will probably loose alot of wildlands fans an gain alot of division2 fans ...

    Nomad is clearly a character that all players customize. So this is just a character that can be male/female and customize at any player choice. If you don't like that then maybe your satisifed with the past where you cannot customize your character and you are stuck with a character like Scott Mitchell, Kozak, and so on. The game was made to give players more freedom of the character to be designed head to toe. Wildlands only introduce the character as start for character customization but its not restricted as a Wildlands only character.

    So Nomad story carries over to a new game. Doesn't mean it has to be a sequel. Ever seen any fighting games with story turns into a adventure game for the next story. Same reason. Got use to that quick playing Dragon Ball Z as an example. If it was named Wildlands 2 I would agree with you but a different title name can change from its predecessor elements.

    Yes you are a survivor and there is a potential chance there would be hardcore modes post launch like Wildlands did with Ghost/Tier Mode. You must understand that TC GR has different type of players from casual, to hardcore. So starting easy is the best way and its already hard for some already. So it wouldn't be a good idea to give those players limited ammo but I do see your point.

    All in all this game isn't for everyone. I honestly like the game mainly cause I play different genres of video games and this a loot-like shooter but still is very tactical. Overall, I like it better than Wildlands imo. There was a point when I didn't like Wildlands either when I came from GRAW2/GRFS. However, I gave it time, accept change, and stuck around to see what happened post-launch. I literally learned there is no perfect game. So, I adjust and made a lot of friends along the way.

    Best of luck to you on your decision. I feel you will make the right choice on whats best for you.

    Just some recommendations

    I do understand that this game is in a beta, just some questions and recommendations.
    My platform is an Xbox. I
    1.why aren’t there footprints in the mud, snow and just environments in general?
    2. Please make there be an option to have a save be exclusively offline. As me and some of my friends live in the country and don’t have good internet providers, this would be a life saver.
    3. When I encountered a behometh, the drone was relatively sloppy ex. Drifting sideways when tracks were pointing forward.
    4. Have had a couple of times where I press jump and just clip through the object.
    Thank you for your consideration if you read this and please, please consider option 2! Thanks again
