    @Mike Weeks---just drive around with a couple of **** talking female GFHs, shoot cultists, road kill cultists, and blow **** up! Free play!

    Yea. You'll eventually get snatched up in the next Seed cut scene, but with JR's Redemption mod----they occur much further apart than in vanilla.
    So JR's mod still works, despite the various updates Ubisoft has thrown into that game? Or you playing off-line with a dated release copy?

    Santa Blanca dudes also can be observed engaging with youngsters, however limited (with weapons holstered BTW).



    Naturally these tough guys like to impress the ladies ...

    Actually what he is doing is repeating Vaz's monologue about the definition of insanity. Notice the hand motion.

    I gave it a second shot tonight out of curiosity. Start at same location - the cold war airship hanger. within 20 seconds I get the first helo. I avoid it and go into the busted up control tower, grab some ammo and oh wait there's the Azrael. Back inside wait till it passes. Then I head for a bunker to collect some more ammo - oh wait there's the hvy gunner standing around all by his lone some. Kill him with my side arm purely to be insulting, grab the ammo head into the woods. See a patrol of 3 guys kill them. Then another helo and the weird subtitles of people talking that I can't hear. Close game. C'mon Ubi you can't possibly think this acceptable. I guess I'll just have to wait until mid July. Fortunately the game is on a secondary drive so space isn't an issue otherwise I'd remove it.

    I am genuinely curious what they do if players just finally walk away. We may very well find out.

    Wild Lands was not perfect nor i think its a Ghost Recon game but it was great..it just needed little touches here and there to become something i can see as a True Squad Base tactical shooter.
    i want an full explination as to WHY Breakpoint doesnt build from Wild lands good parts and towards Realism. instead they build towards the wrong direction from its worst parts. :l

    I guess I'm lucky in very, very small way. Don't use subtitles, thus ...

    I logged off and shut my PC down after 20 minutes and half a dozen cheap flyovers tonight. I’m just tired and frustrated with all the poorly implemented stuff in this game. It’s not the first time, and, probably not the last, but I need an extended break.

    I’m frustrated with having to hit the ground every few minutes, with having my character constantly covered in mud, my weapons are always dirty, and half the time my belt is the wrong color, or I’m holding my gun in some contortionist manner (try entering photo mode with the camera over your left shoulder), all of which makes it very frustrating to use photo mode which is about all there is left to do. And I always have to carry two primaries now as I can’t switch them up at my vehicle. All immersion is basically lost for me now. This game just seems like a poor game... there are constant, I mean NON STOP immersion killing reminders. It’s not an immersive experience at all. I can’t look past it anymore.

    I’m trying to play my own campaign, but without any way to measure progress of any kind, it just feels hollow. I’ve killed the same two enemies talking about Hawkins and Grant a thousand f#cking times. Another reminder how boring and poorly implemented this game is.

    I honestly believe the game is worse than it was at launch. Sure we have more injuries now... So you can die quicker when the Azreal spawns a death squad. And hey, we don’t need to chase gear, but at least that was something to do. Removing gear score from this game is like taking the money out of Monopoly. The game was clearly designed to grind for gear, because when you take tiered loot and the Battlepass away, there’s nothing left to do. And on top of nothing to do, we have more bugs now than we did at launch. It’s really hard to imagine how every release brings new bugs and fails to fix old ones.

    Ubisoft Paris, you should be utterly ashamed of this.
    I uninstalled long ago, just because I'm 100% sure there is no Rescue for this Game.
    It was dead on Birth, then wandering around as a Zombie just to get shot down over and over by Sheriff U.B. Soft

    Respects for all of you who managed to play for so long. You're pretty tough 😉

    I started up a new game in Wildlands tonight. It feels so good to be back in Bolivia. I immediately feel the vibe of the world... gritty, oppressed, dirty, but vibrant. Lived in. It has a soul. The people are cautious but respectful. There’s no stupid drones. It’s just so refreshing.

    I’m going to just soak up the atmosphere for awhile. My team are a bunch of local Itacua residents and friends (one foreigner)... my parents lived in Culta. Our own homes were burnt out as were associated with the Rebels. We’re homeless and looking to set things right and do what we can to fight the Cartel. My character has a bit of military training. My friend is a hunter. We don’t have a drone, or a vehicle. We’re just going to cross the country looking to do what we can to help the Rebels and the good people of Bolivia while dealing blows to the Cartel at every opportunity. We will travel on foot, away from roads, take shelter from bad weather, and enjoy our time.

    I’m sure I’ll eventually get bored with Wildlands, but it’s sure nice to visit once in awhile.

    Reminds me how foolish they were to not just extend the life of Wildlands or at least follow that same formula. What a shame.

    Night and day compared to the automatons in Breakpoint that just stand around 24/7... not eating, sleeping or doing anything other than staring at a wall and talking about Hawkins and Grant.
