The game is not bad at all. It was clearly made for console, like most of Ubisoft's games for the last ten years or so. It had a fairly bad launch, but the devs have worked out most of the kinks since then.
The GAME is not bad.
WHEN you can play it.
Ubisoft has earned the distinction in my own mind and others as having THE WORST rapport with their customers. When they say anything at all, it is often a bald faced lie. Their servers work when THEY want to. They decided to make PVP and fast, loud gunplay the basis for all future Ghost Recon games. Tactical stealth based gameplay has no role in Ghost Recon anymore, it seems.
Sad. It is not a bad game now. Pity its publishers are lying, cheating moneygrubbing scum.
