    I thought this was a “loan wolf” game

    Let me start by saying I in no way consider this a GR title let alone worthy of Tom Clancy’s good name. Wildlands was a streatch but I was willing to look past that because at least I could make it feel like a tactical shooter based on how I approach led missions.

    This game was marketed as a loan wolf tactical shooter yes? Unless I’m mistaken, and I’m pretty sure I’m not, that’s what was stated. Never any mention or even acknowledgement of the fears that there would be tiered loot and mmo style garbage by any developer. I paid $120 for a loan wolf experience that could be played in coop.

    Now, I’m forced out of an entire section of the game because it requires a team of four. Not a match made team of four. A well coordinated team, presumably, people that play together on the regular. This feels like betrayal to me. The entire game. “The entire game can be completed solo”? False. This game didn’t need a MMO style raid. It needed its devs to listen to the community, screaming for a game worthy of Clancy’s and the Ghost Recon name. This isn’t ghost recon, it’s Division lite, set on an lifeless island.

    You are fully correct, people will come on and tell you to stop whinging or some such but you have the core of it, tiered loot, enchanted properties are not for this genre but hey presto......as an example of a non tactical shooter, look through your scope (eg the high power sniper scope) and try to use the graduations in relation to enemy range, its purely cosmetic. This is purely a fantasy genre game using the ghost recon name as a piggy back marketing scam with a foundation of false advertising. I would prefer a lone wolf resistance fighter style scenario personally, golem island as a more hard core area, instead you have this fine quality production.

    That's what Golem Island would be if they turned it into a simple soloable map expansion that you could explore without the ridiculous and shoehorned raid bosses and mechanics, as it is pretty much that until you get to Baal.

    the trailers for the game suggested it was squad based gameplay by showing squad based gameplay. When in reality the gameplay doesnt even have a squad in it and your stuck with lone wolf.
