Ghost Recon

The new Ghost Recon comes out in May, I think. Has anyone played this series? If so, how is the multiplayer?

https://youtu.be/o2FYRbMsTP4 trailer for the game.

I played the original Ghost Recon on Xbox WAAAAY back with Xbox Live first started. That was a super fun game to play. First time for online multiplayer for me. Since that was 10 years ago, I don't think I can really compare the online game place. The single player was always pretty fun too, a bit more tactical than COD, where you can direct your computer squadmates.

I played some Rainbow Six Vegas...not the same but still a really fun game and a Tom Clancy series. Repelling down and breaking through windows was always enjoyable, or better yet, hanging upside down and shooting through the windows. Can't do that in MW3...

So I was walking by the Gamestop at the mall and saw the huge poster for GR: Future Soldier, so I put $5 down for it. Apparently Gamestop has a special edition with added weapons and stuff. Don;t know if it does anything, but I figured I would put it down and decide later if I wanted to keep it.

The trailers look pretty cool, but I wonder what the actual gameplay will be like. Anyone else up to get this? It seems a little more tactical than COD and the 3rd person view will take some readjusting.

i did the same a couple weeks back wall. i'm probably gonna get it, good to get a break from mw3. it looks good so far.

I played a game in the beta and so far I like the graphics they are smooth but with only one game under my belt and I RAGED during it because I just love to spawn and get knifed in the back after taking two steps I am not a fan of the spawn system however one thing I noticed if the other team got too close the the spawn the game would open another spawn option for you besides the uncap.

Sweet, at least I'll have someone to play with. lol Or we can do co-op missions. haha

Multiplayer trailer. Looks like it's very much team oriented. I'm intrigued.

Also, preordering gets you signature edition:

Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Future Soldier Signature Edition

- Bonus Moscow Suburb In-Game Co-op Multiplayer Map
- 2 Bonus In-Game Weapons
- Bonus Head Customization Mode
- Limited Edition Penny Arcade Weapon Skin Featuring Twisp and Catsby

looks pretty bad ass...like strategy may be more important than shooting skill...I really liked the part where he knocked the dude down and stomped on him...way better than panic knife.

as is BF3 Walldoggydog.

I played a match of the Beta today and it has a BF3 vibe to it, 4 classes you can level up. I think it would take a bit to adjust to the 3rd person shooter style. It ended up freezeing half way through the match so I switched back to MW3. will maybe be hit a couple more matches before the beta is over. If any one has plus and downloaded it as well hit me up.

Playstation Plus... don't have it. Oh well, guess I'll wait for the game to come out and read reviews and see how it is.

Don't listen to the evil BF3 sirens walldoggy...they hypnotize you with their music then rape you when you get over there...so I've heard...

no they bore you to death with 15 minute treks to the actual battlezone. then when you are looking for someone to kill, you get sniped searching ruins from halfway across the map while someone parachutes down from a plane he decided to crash.

When you respawn you trek across only to find some guy with incendiary ammo in his shotgun hitting you from 40 yards out in a remote spot that no one else is in except for guys running back to get in a fight.

Thats BF3 =P

I forgot that it is third person like the socom series. I guess I could get used to it if enough people were on.

It looks like it does move to first person when you ADS, or maybe it's just with the scope.

Well maybe that's not rape...but it certainly sounds like molestation...

U can switch to 1st person by hitting L3. But its some what feels funy, doing so.

Sith - I think you can take cover behind objects, and blind fire over it, right?

No, listen to them Walldoggy, give it 10 hours of gameplay and you'll use that COD disk as a clay pidgeon. Just play with a squad so you can spawn on each other or jump in a vehicle and bypass the trek to the battlezone or if you want constant action try tdm, squad tdm, or squad rush. No quickscopers, no trash talking punks, would like to see you try it. by the way, happy birthday.

Spawning on each other. Sounds a little dirty. lol

And thanks for the birthday wishes.

Oh, it is dirty....
