There's definitely more to it than that. We had a mission were we had to take out a convo, another mission were we had to take out two radio towers 60 seconds apart from each other, a rescue mission, and a helicopter hi-jacking.Looked okay I guess. I watched some vids and it was guys going from area to area in a jeep clearing out encampments. After one is done, they'd get a mission briefing to go to another part of the map and do the same thing.
- Get mission briefing
- Get close to location
- Do overhead drone marking
- Clear out camp
- Mission complete
Repeat.
I don't know, maybe there's more to it than that. One thing the game has is good looking environments and big scope.
Ahhh. That sounds better. I guess the beta clips I saw so happened to show gamers doing similar kinds of "clear the camp" tasks where they'd drive there by jeep along narrow dusty trails.There's definitely more to it than that.

Yes it was very fun and your driving had me laughing my ass off. Sorry I didn't have a mic was hoping I could at least issues commands suggestions without one but didn't see a option.I got some game time in with Hazard71 and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Though Hazard didn't have his MIC ON....silly little b**** . But I haven't played a good co-op game with a good gamer in ages, so it was refreshing to play it with him, as short as the time was.
Oh, and did you like my driving down that hill? ROFL!
Played a bit solo last night and it is definitely far more fun as CoOp. The squad AI is abyssmal. I ended up just leaving them behind. I do like the sync shot stuff though.
Question for you Beta players...in the offline mode, can you go solo, i.e. play alone without the stupid AI teammates? Or, can you at least play by yourself, or with one other person, in the online coop mode, or are you forced to be with a 4 man team? Hopefully there's a way to not be rounded out with AI teammates. (If any of you remember the pitiful AI squadmates in Operation Flashpoint 2, they pretty much ruined the game for me. Well, one of several things that ruined that game for me )
Yeah, especially when there are specific incidences where you need to storm buildings. There should at least be simple stack and clear commands.Yeah the sync shot is about the only good thing they can do. That's easily my biggest disappointment with the game... the lack of any orders or formation options with your squad.
Honestly, I'd pass if I didn't have someone to play it with. It's also much, much better if you commit to playing stealth. The enemy ai is easy to exploit in a firefight/seaching stance.I'm a little iffy on this. It looks great but I don't know....
Is there a good amount of preplanning and strategy? This is something I'm hoping for. Unfortunately, I don't know many friends getting this.

Looking forward to trying the open beta. I was a big Ghost Recon fan back in the day.
Ghost Recon is just a brand for this game. It's not really like the old ghost recon games at all. It has elements of Terrorist Hunt in but thats about it.
Try the open beta so. I played with it using a good amount of strategy and planning but you don't have to. Also play it on Elite or Ghost difficulty to make it that more unforgiving. The team AI is terrible though. All they can do is take Sync Shots with you. It's much much better when played in coop.
If you play solo, are the teammate AI mandatory? Or can you so a mission totally solo? If not, can you at least command the AI to stay put?
If the AI is as terrible as you guys say and they are mandatory in some fashion, it sounds like it's be frustrating to play. Like any game with friendly AI, the first thing I think of is.... "ah shyt, AI helpers, looks like it'll be an escort mission to save their asses, while I do all the work"
