Hmm, looks like I'll be popping in Splinter Cell tonight to download the beta. Picked it up recently for $20 so me and a friend could play some co-op, but this is a nice bonus on top of that.

[ozzman1]

Can somebody spare a buddy key that ubisoft emailed out to people?

[Opiteilsm]

I got a key a few nights back from Ubi, and so far I'm enjoying it. I actually enjoy the weapon customization more than the actual game play which is perhaps a little worrying.

Achievements have been released. Lots of multiplayer.

The one time I tried to get on the beta the servers were down...

As i was expecting. It's one of those games where the multiplayer has some longevity so it shouldn't be much of a problem.

Finally got a couple of rounds in last night after i kept getting the never ending loading screen for the past couple of days. It was alright, seems very fast paced and more of a 'gun and run' style compared to GRAW 1 and 2, also it was quite the grenade fest. I played as the assault class and the starting guns where crap and so it was hard to get kills from a distance, had a good first game and then a sh*tty second game as the map was bigger.

Just got a beta key for this from Raptr. Downloading it now. It's not one I've been anticipating, but I'll give it a go.

Awww yeah! No gun and no head I usually spend most MP games running around like a headless chicken, but this takes the biscuit.

How do you get the reward from raptr? I've played assassins creed revelations after I made my raptr account but I didn't get any ranking on it.

I've got no idea. I have ACR, but I haven't even opened the box and had a play yet. I just logged on to Raptr and the code was there waiting for me.

[Seddo]

Raptr was where i got my code from, wasn't even expecting it, after trying numerous other ways i gave up. It says being a newbie in a top 10 game or a previous Ghost Recon or Assassin's Creed game, newbie pretty much just means booting the game up.

If you can find your rewards page then it should be there to claim.

Idk it must not have been working for me, but I ended up getting a code from twitter.

I started up the game after taking forever to get a code and wow was I disappointed. How the hell does Ubi even call this a Ghost Recon game? All you do is run around, spray, and lob grenades.

Ubisoft are turning Tom Clancys games into massive piles of run and gun sh*t.

[GunWrath]

Merged.
Maybe this topic was created, but I didn't find one , anyways..

So I have my brothers copy, picked it up from him yesterday and which I'll go ahead and say, I can't play full version of Multiplayer because his code has already been used but I can only play up to Level 5 and won't be able to rank any further.. I also can't play with friends or create a party.. this is another story.

Anywho, the game, wow.. I'm seriously disappointed. This has to be the worst GR to come out thus far. It has it's "cool" moments, SP and MP, but it's still like holy hell.. this is like NOTHING I've seen on YouTube or in promotions. (Which some if not most games usually are).. but I was really at a loss for words. The graphics seem abit lacking and the gameplay is well, an average shooter. I was expecting a full-on edge of seat game and 3mins into the first mission on Campaign, I took the game out.

Anyone else have any issues with this game, or plays it? I've been playing the MP and I must say, it's challenging, but it's out of whack as well, not at all what I expected. GRAW2 was awesome and then this here may have just ruined Ghost Recon as a franchise.. who knows..

/rant.

[kudoboi]

didnt pre order it and do not plan on buying it as well. i expected it to be like ghost recon online where its just a clusterf*ck of snipers and campers

[GunWrath]

It's def not worth a buy, but a rent, mayyybeee. Ghost Recon was amongst the first MP games I've ever got into on the PC and it was pure ecstasy, but after playing this for acouple hours.. I think they hit a wall. Not sure what the deal is.. It's just horrible and they've obviously CHANGED alot of things. Not sure why, but the graphics have been downgraded, the mechanics are awful.. It's basically a sit behind cover until you shoot someone or get shot.

Not intensity, no replay value, it's just

[Opiteilsm]

I don't know, I love the multiplayer, I've been playing a lot with friends and it's replaced Socom for my tactical shooter. The campaign is long as well and I actually loved every second of it. I played the beta and was dissapointed initially, but I honestly think it's a great game.

[GunWrath]

I can't play full on multiplayer due to the code was used already, but that just means I stop leveling @ 5 and I can't form parties.. but that doesn't affect my overall judgement of the game.

It's just not what I thought it would be.. I remember when it was first revealed and the amazing single player gameplay trailer they showed.. I was just like O.O and when I played it, I was like . Just seems to me that downgraded alot of it. Textures seem blurry, same as text. Formatting is wack.. I haven't even went past the 2nd mission in Single Player .. which normally on bad games I finish regardless.. that's just how much disgust that I have.

I have my eye on the new Sniper Elite though.. looks fun.

[iPhaze]

I enjoy playing the game co-op online. I would play more multiplayer, but they need to fix the servers before I go all in... I have beat the game on Elite, it was not that hard, really... Hit me if you want to play online sometimes via XBOX Live - CWB iPhaze...

[HOLDMYBALLSACK]

the original was awesome on PC in first person view, why on consoles is it 3rd person???


it was so much better in 1st person view

[iPhaze]

True, I enjoyed playing it on PC... I believe they released it in third person because of the lack of third person games. I mean, we got Gears of War for all that... I think it's because of the games such as Battlefield 3, Call of Duty's, on and on... There are plenty of FPS war games taking place on today's warfare... They wanted to try something different, and it's alright.
