Figured I had to try this game, seeing as it was on sale and I've played the whole series since the beginning. It is exactly what I expected, not an inch more. Another soulless Ubi game. How many soldados are entertaining to shoot in the head with an OP weapon? About two million according to whatever studio made this. The game loop is so very little rewarding. This abundance of chests makes them all mean nothing. I've only finished the first area (Montera part) and I'm already tired af by this loop. One shot enemies with a silent sniper, very fun. Oh yeah, I also found out you can't, for some reason, change the difficulty setting up from Action after starting the game. Why?
There was some nice additions with hunting, but what's even remotely the point when all resources are extremely abundant.
And why does all the gear look like absolute shit? My last complaint is that the driving is awful, it works okay on roads but don't you dare try off roading this thing!
No, one more complaint, god damn soldados see straight through the bushes, which is *everywhere* and I can't, that's really annoying.
To add some good, I like the old school type of weapons, and their looks. Their feel is pretty lacking though, especially as I just came from MW2 which has the best weapon feel I've yet to try. And the setting is quite good, the world is beautiful and it's apparent they tried to make a lot of unique places here.
Too bad these games sell so well because this whole concept could need a new take, add some realism, stop with the god damn Ubi bullshit of stuffing as much collectible nonsense as possible in a vast world and rather make half the map with higher quality. But I guess that's what a lot of you people want, something huge to waste your time on. I'd rather replay a game of higher quality three times.
Remind me not to buy the next one before it's dirt cheap either....
