Alright guys so I can't speak for everyone else but I really love tactical shooters. I don't mean your standard run n' gun with camping or call outs or using the spawn system to your advantage; I mean quite literally tactical, being smart with where you go/ how you play (being stealthy), picking proper loadouts for your gameplay, and utilizing all available loadouts/environments to their full potential. I'm talking about those old games like Siphon Filter, Splinter Cell (when it was good[granted have not played the latest one]), and others like that. Now we had a pretty big selection of games like this back in the day (ps1/early ps2) with new games/sequals coming out left and right, but since then we've been a little lacking........but there may be hope. Now a long time ago I was walking through Wal-Mart and stopped in the electronics section and started playing a demo of a game (back when they had those in the store) that someone had stopped. That game was Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advance Warfighter, and this game was sick, I stood there for 45min playing the demo over and over in different ways, I decided then and there that I wanted it..........one problem, I was poor as fuck. So time went on and I forgot about it, until one day I see a commercial for something amazing........Ghost Recon Future Soldier. I got this game on midnight release and played this game to death I loved it so much, but soon moved on when no one would play with me and the community started dying down and it turned into hackfest. Recently however, I've been hearing a lot of talk about the game which I really enjoyed, and chalked up to nostalgia for the passing of Tom Clansy himself, and getting ready for the upcoming game The Division. Then I heard about another title already out in beta, but never got the name, and couldn't find anything online until last night..............I logged on to my old primary email address with this starring at me
Now imagine my surprise to find that there is a new game and it is already out, but................it's for PC
So this is a new free-to-play title that Ubisoft has recently released and it actually seems pretty good, it's not the prettiest thing ever, but it does leave me with hope that maybe we will see more of the Ghost Recon games on console, and if the interest comes back maybe we will see new iterations to the stealthy tactical shooter genre
ps-if your interested in this game I will leave a link to the website where you can get it, and a vid of a guy playing it and giving some opinions of how it handles
