If you're acting like an idiot solo then, yea, it's not going to be fun for you but this game is based around team play so why would you always want to run solo? You're never going to get to endgame or the best loot by running solo. If you want to be a lone wolf then go play Fallout 4.

Crew is definitely a necessity. It is almost not even fun solo. However it is a total blast with people
This is pretty true from my experience as well. Single player is more intense w/ a squad. Trying to Lone Wolf in the DZ is not fun. Sure you may pick a few people off, but most likely you're just going to get slaughtered by a squad.

It's like Ubisoft finds new ways to make Assassin's Creed as much as they possibly can.

It's still fun, but you'll want to break things if you're by yourself. The matchmaking system seems to work well though, so shouldn't be an issue. Ran with a really fun group last night just from matchmaking. Running with a team really is night and day different.

I agree, from watching it it looks like a lot of Watch Dogs mechanics.

I'm glad I've watched a bunch of stuff on this today.

It's shown me the ai is stupid and hardly uses cover, the dark zone is a troll's paradise, and the movement mechanics are just clunky.

Really? Because this is the complete opposite from what I experienced in my 12 hours of gameplay this weekend. I bet you take movie reviews to heart, too

Maybe we have different definitions of stupid ai, clunky controls, and repetitive and boring quests...

Stupid AI: I've run into maybe 2 that acted dumb; the rest take cover, hold their guns over their cover to shoot or run at you with baseball bats.

Clunky Controls: I can't comment on console but for PC it's fluid and easy to move strategically.

Repetitive and boring quests: this is where your opinion is disregarded. We literally were given one main mission (hospital) and 5-10 side missions. It is a beta, not the full release, with only 4 level opportunities on main missions and 12 for dark zone. You're literally complaining about a slice of the entire pie.

The AI can be a bit stupid but it's not terrible. The controls though are anything but clunky. Transferring from cover to cover is smooth and aiming feels snappy. It sounds to me like you've already formed an opinion regardless of the facts before even trying it out for yourself.
