Another unfinished game from Ubisoft Paris
Hey, remember when Ghost Recon: Wildlands shipped with multiple bugs, some of which were game-breaking? Now you can have more of the same with Ghost Recon: Breakpoint!
Despite operating a "beta" that actually identified multiple bugs and gameplay issues, Ubisoft decided to ship this game without addressing them all in their day one patch. Instead of taking the high road and delaying release until the game was polished and thoroughly play-tested, they are selling you a broken game. To make this Ghost Recon game even worse for gamers, they've made it online-only, even for single-player. And guess what happened on launch day? The servers were down and nobody could play for hours! So if you don't have an internet connection or their servers are down, you can't play the game. Brilliant!
But wait. There's more!
They've also included a ton of micro-transaction gear this time around as well. If you pay extra for the Gold or Ultimate editions, you still have to pay for the gear. Quite the business model!
Save yourself the headache and wait 6-months or a year to buy this game. It'll be half as much and (maybe) some of the bugs will be fixed.
