    Golem Island Single Player experience is how the entire game should have been like

    I can't believe how different playing on Golem island is different from the main map, it's like a different game altogether. The main map, Aurora or whatever, it's among the most boring, bland and generic open world map I've ever played in video games. I cannot list a SINGLE memorable location other than the Wolves seaside bunker right now, and the whole map is a HUGE step down from the huge and highly diverse map of Wildlands.

    But Golem island is something else, and it's IMO much better than Wildlands' map, let alone Aurora. The terrain and unique weathers in certain locations really makes it so different from the main area with each zone feeling completely identical. I love how there are only wolves and no stupid civilians. The majority of the locations I've visited so far are just so fun to go through. The satellite dish, the prototype factory, all the abandoned Cold War sites, the No Man's Land (my absolute favorite), just to name a few.

    I can't believe the best part of the game was for so long locked behind silly MP component fighting against drones?? No wonder this game failed hard. If Ubisoft still has hope for this game and wants it to do a 180, I hope you can forward my feedback below to the dev team on what else I would like to see.

    - Please bring back Wildlands' gunsmith menu. This is another huge step back from wildlands, probably a by-product of the equally ridiculous gear level design. IT's an absolute pain to go through a SINGLE row of weapons to change weapons when they should each be in their respective categories (ARS, DMR, SMG, etc) like how things appear in the shop. I hate the dumb RPG system of upgrading guns with the materials etc, those should only be accomplished by changing the attachments like in Wildlands. The changes from those upgrades (like reload speed) ARE NOT EVEN REFLECTED in the stats menu.

    - Please add more skin for customization. I like a lot of the new costumes but YOU CANNOT CUSTOMIZE THEM so what's the point?? I would love to have Sam Fisher's skin and customizable gear, but this is most relevant for females since I can create a decent male that looks enough like Fisher but all the female skins are HIDEOUS. Give us Twinka, Zofia, Finka, Ash's skin and I would gladly buy some skins from the store for a start.

    - If Ubisoft plans to have a year 2 pass, I hope that it will make all the new contents in Golem island, or even better yet, expand the whole island or make a entirely new one but just like it.

    So here's my view on what Ubisoft should avoid for future Ghost Recon titles
    - No more stupid gear level, we just want the traditional ghost recon experience. You guys already made the Division, WHY MAKE ALL GAMES PLAY THE SAME??
    - Maps: have more unique and distinct locations with awesome atmosphere, not some generic locations with half of the NPCs being civilians.
    - Weapons: if it's not broken then don't fix it! Wildlands' gunsmith was well received, at the very least keep it that way, if not make it better.
    - customization, more skins, less costumes that cannot be altered.

    Thank you for reading and I hope those feedback can be forwarded. I really hope Ubisoft will make more contents for this game since it's finally getting better and I would gladly buy a year 2 pass if the above points are taken into account and delivered in year 2.

    *I would gladly buy a year 2 pass if the above points are taken into account* I wouldn't., they best just give it out for free at this point. I will never back them or do videos on their games again ever in my life. so they best pull something out of their %^& that's really good for me to do videos on but then again they would just remove it later in the game anyway.

    I think golem island is amazing. Fantastic bases and harder enemies and patrols.

    I would say the down side there is that there are no missions to play if you don’t do the raid ( you need to use gear scores to play this )
