Ghost Recon Wildlands is still an example 𓃲of a great open world game and it keeps improving as Ubisoft keeps adding updates. The game itself is a fun open world tactical ops game in which players are tasked with taking down Bolivia's worst crime lords. Along the ♎way, you will run into some strange things you aren't expecting to see. There is a lot to take in when first loading into the game and Ubisoft does a decent job explaining everything but there are still a lot of tips and tricks that will help your gameplay experience a bit more in the long run.
A lot of these tips have to do with the gear you are equipped with and how to upgrade everything to the best possible outcome. Exploring Bolivia can be daunting since the map is so big. There is so much to dig through with this game and you will be hard pressed to find yourself becoming bored with it any time soon. Ghost Recon Wildlands is a prime example of an open world game that works. It differs itself from other successful open world games like Grand Theft Auto and ಞwe hope to see much ꦍmore from the series in the future (including a sequel)!
30 ꧙ Always Use The Drone
There should be no surprise that in a Tom Clancy game a gadget such as a drone is your best friend. The drone serves as a crucial part of the Ghost Recon Wildlands experience. It can help you scope out a situation before you even step foot into town. The drone can fly a decent distance before losing connection and can spot and tag enemies for you and your squad to take down. The drone is also upgradable so you can increase range and battery life, making it the mosꦚt unstoppable recon machine in your arsenal.
29 Offroading Is An Option 🅺
Most open world games such as Grand Theft Auto V require you to stay on the roads mostly i💖f you want to get t♍o your destination in a timely manner.
However in the "wildlands" of Ghost Recon Wildlands offroading is sometimes the better option compared to taking preplanned roads.
🔴The types of vehicles you are traveling in will also help you decide if you are fit to offroad or if you are better off🔯 taking the dirt roads in place for civilians. Cutting through mountains or forests can also help with gaining the upper hand in a survival situation. You can really attack from any angle in this game.
28 💧 Always Keep An Eye On Your Minimap
Including the drone, the minimap is also an important key feature when setting off on a mission. When yo🐈u're close to the mission area, your map will display enemies that have been tagged. Therefore the minimap and the drone work well in tandem and will give you the tactical upper hand. The minimap will also alert you if the enemies have spotted you by flashing different colored rings around the minimap. The minimap is a great addition and something that players should keep an eye on at all times, especially in dangerous situations.
27 The Dark Souls Easter Egg 🗹
While Ghost Recon Wildlands might not be as hard as Dark Souls, there is a reference to the save point present in the game. The bonfire most commonly used in Dark Souls for taking a break from the madness is located atop a mountain in Ghost Recon Wildlands.
It seems like everyone is tipping their metaphorical hats towards From Soft🅷ware and Dark Souls these days because Ghost Recon Wildlands isn't the first game to reference Dark Souls in their game.
Witcher 3, Overwatch, and Borderlands all also featured small references to the game-changing series that is Dark Souls.
26 Don't Be Afra✃id To Fast Travel𝄹
The world within Ghost Recon Wildlands is massive and you will quickly realize this as you start driving to your next mission. The map is divided into different crime bosses and there are quite a few. That's why Ubisoft added in a fan-favorite feature known as fast travel. At first, players may be deterred to use the fast travel system because they want to take in the vast world that is this game. However, after the first ten hours (which most of that is driving) yo🌳u'll be thanking Ubisoft for the fast travel feature. It saves a lot of time and can help you finish main missions an𓆏d side missions.
25 🐟 Summon Your Inner Sam Fischer 🌳
While Sam Fischer from Splinter Cell is actually in the game now, there was a time when he was only referenced by the constant use of night vision in the game. However, it can be easily overlooked as the game doesn't exꦓplicitly tell you to equip it everytime it turns dark outside.
The night vision goggles really give you the upper hand in dark situations where stealth is already your best bet.
Enemies have a harder time spotting you at night and the player does too unless they use night vision goggles. Overall, the night vision goggles are a must use if you want to take out enemy bases at nig🐠ht.
24 Keep An Eye On 🧔Your Squad
A big part that makes Ghost Recon Wildlands different from other open world third person games is the fact that you aren't the only protagonist. You and a group of three other people are tasked with taking down the crime bosses that plague Bolivia. These squad memberౠs can either be your friends or AI's if you rather play solo. In single-player many may not know that you can be the commanding officer of your group and tell your comrades what to do and where to go. This can help plan situations better and help get you out of a sticky situation.
23 Tag Any Supplies Youꦉ See
Another big part of Ghost Recon Wildlands is the fact that there are a lot of side things to do in Bolivia. One of these things is to tag supplies left by the crime members to help out the rebel cause. These can range from meds to food to anything else for their cause. Ta🌱gging these will help you unlock skill points and other abilities that improve your gaming experience. These supplie🎶s can be found in most enemy bases and are indicated with a green icon on your minimap. These supply crates are necessary for your adventure if you want to become the best soldier you can be.
22 Customize Your Loadout To Best♈ Fit You
Speaking of building your character, customization is a large part of Ghost Recon Wildlands. Everything from first customizing your character when you start the game to equipping gear you find along your missions. You can customize your appearance and even your weapons. There are several kinds of weapons in the game and each of them has separate stats. Not to mention each weapon category has weapon parts like suppressors and scopes to find. Needless to say, the amount of customization in Ghost Recon Wildlands is not lacking! On top of that, you can even purchase weapon skins to make yourඣ weapons look more snazzy on the battlefield.
21 Choosing The Best Upgrades For Your Charaಌcter
Ghost Recon Wildlands upgrade system is simple but also complex at the same time. It can be a tad bit confusing when deciding what upgrades to choose and when. There are only a select few upgrades but under e🌃ach upgrade is room to increase the upgrade's capabilities to new levels. Therefore you will be spending a lot of time looking at these upgrades and figuring out which ones best suit your needs for the time being. Overall the upgrades mainly only increase the usefulne🌃ss of your tech and weapons. You can also, of course, increase health and agility along with other character traits.
