Picked it up on a PSN sale last week. Got the Ultimate Edition for $20-ish or something like that. I'm only about 2 hours into it. It's kind of overwhelming with all of the menu options between gunsmith, objectives, AI squadmates, etc.

I did encounter 2 bugs while playing:

-Helicopter got shut down and the wreck fell through the map. Got stuck in a death loop after each respawn. Had to restart the game.
- Got stuck on a ledge that I was trying to jump over. Had to restart the game.

Best part is just driving around letting your AI squadmates mow down anyone and everyone you come across. Playing on Easy mode to get the hang of things.

I thing that's really cool about it is the name branded merch in the game (guns, accessories, clothing, etc.).

I remember everyone hated it at launch. The way the leveling of gear worked, (Pick Immersive to skip that trash) no AI teammates, tons of micro transactions and tons of bugs being the chief complaints.

I just picked it up on a sale last week too. Its much improved since launch and if you really want to make it a tactical shooter( more or less) there are a bunch of YT videos that advise on what custom options to choose and how they effect the game. I really enjoyed Wildlands and by most accounts its the better game over all with better story and mission design but Breakpoint's has some advantages as far as player movement and graphics. I hear that DLC Red Patriot is pretty bad arse too.

Anyone here play Ghost War on Breakpoint?...I miss playing that on Wildlands..reminded me of the old Socom.

Never played those... I was mainly referring to the PVP in the SOCOM games on PS2. Those hold a special place in many gamers hearts as it was really the go to for online shooters on PS2 at the time....and the PVP on GR is similar imo.

Ghost War for the first year was a top tactical shooter. By the end of its run they broke the balance it had. Really hope if there’s a third, they go back to its roots with Ghost War. I didn’t like it being tied to your character in Breakpoint.

Wildlands walked so fortnite, etc could run...people dont remember that when multiplayer came out on this, it was almost revolutionary...Not long after, PUBG, fortnite and the rest hit the street and Wildlands had a cult following almost..Those of us who still play it, also play BF4 together

I am. Don’t listen to haters. Breakpoint has fixed a ton of its original issues. Once you get the hang of it, Google “immersive settings” and apply them. Makes the game even better (imo)
