Release Date - Q4 2012

Wow looks awsome. Btw i have also played one game from the series, tom clancy's rainbow six.

Jun 13, 2011 at 11:20 AM
Yeah it is.
Well actually Rainbow isn't in this series thats a different series. The games in this series are
Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 1 & 2. Both are awesome games and you should try them.

@ Mods
Please change the Thread's Title ( Clanc's to Clancy's). I made a typo

Nah not with just one bullet. Thats the case with Operation Flashpoint Dragon Rising. In this game you can easily take about 3 to 4 bullets in normal difficulty and about 2 bullet in hard difficulty.

Ghost Recon Future Soldier Signature Edition

Ubisoft today announced that the Signature Edition of Ghost Recon: Future Soldier offers an exclusive multiplayer map named Moscow Suburbs plunging you right into the heart of intense urban firefights, and two legendary weapons: the MK 14 assault rifle for the Ghost faction rifleman class, and the AK-47 for the Bodark rifleman. Also, new customization options include two custom weapons skins (the Winter Digital and Tiger Stripe camo skins that have been selected by the Ghost Recon community on Facebook), and 48 custom headgear skins (you will get even more options to customize your character and make him look truly unique on the battlefield)

Ghost Recon:Future Soldier

Every one knows Ghost Recon Future Soldier would be releasing on May 22 for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, but now we know when PC players will be able to get in on the action.:razz:
*media1.gameinformer.com/imagefeed/featured/ubisoft/ghost-recon/futuresoldier/pc/GRFS_PC_BXSHT_610a.jpg
Developer-Ubisoft
Release-June 12
The game will be available at retail and for digital download on PC on June 12. Here are a few differences between the PC and console versions of the game:

PC version features:

  • PC high standard visuals (DX11 renderer, new high-quality assets, new post process effects, multi-monitor solutions support, TriDef stereoscopic support).

    DirectX11 enhanced: tessellation (for soft 3D models), compute shaders-based realistic lighting (for global illumination), volumetric fog.

    Online widget: Party, Friends and Ghost Feed functionality can be accessed at any moment from any screen

    Extended party functionality: simplified and more flexible invitation system

    Party text chat

    Uplay Friends system

    Fully customizable controls for the localized keyboards

    The PC version of the game will also require a one time registration with your Uplay account when you first begin playing, but after that an Internet connection will not be required to play.

Copied your post to the other thread, but make sure you check if a thread already exists before making a new one.

I merged your prev one too but this one already has a nice thread on it's own so merging the OP seemed counter productive.

Dont expect anything Big from a PC Port even if it is using DX11, especially when it comes from UBISOFT.
YETI was internally developed just for Ghost recon series and was focused competely to X360 and heavily modified version has been used to bring up this title to PC,so not much expectation in tech department.Though screens are just fine.

Its a game that felt like half finished. Tactics that required to complete the game were sweet. But this game could have used a bit more polish. Graphics are great at times and mediocre at some times. Facial animations and voice acting is sub par. But they nailed the cover mechanics. All in all, Just a good game. Nothing outstanding here. Disappointed.

EDIT: Review is good, but as MP requires good communication with the squad mates, it may be a problem till many of us start playing together with voice. I am also concerned about the time I may spend playing this game, BF3 gave me a good 10-11 months of gaming and still i'm not even slightly bored about it. ill give it a couple of weeks to see if you guys buy it.. else ill give it a skip

Is this the first Ghost Recon? If yes, you're lucky, you die 100 times in GRAW2 if played with highest difficulty. This game's dumbed down (hell, like every game which is coming out now) but not a extent where we forget that this is GR. In other words, take stealth approach.

And damn, those screens look so vibrant and colourful. Why is mine all grayish? Almost colors are absent. I think this because of (Rupees Zero)Ghost Recon Future Soldier. :mrgreen:

Damn my GPU isn't ready for this game i guess. Getting below 30 FPS while playing in high settings. Damn! What should i do guys? 40 FPS will be enough for me. Have a look and please say what should i change. Turning off VSync made no difference!

Turn down the tessellation, shadows and Improved Physics. Your settings at that res. will bring even GTX570 to it's knees. Also this game's a poor port.

And damn, those screens look so vibrant and colourful. Why is mine all grayish? Almost colors are absent. I think this because of (Rupees Zero)Ghost Recon Future Soldier. :mrgreen:

The screens you posted were of different levels than mine and that another poster.
And as stated before by someone else there are some levels which are grayinh due to weather settings like snow and storms. Also you need to correct the gamma, GRFS's default settings are $#!^.

Is this the first Ghost Recon? If yes, you're lucky, you die 100 times in GRAW2 if played with highest difficulty. This game's dumbed down (hell, like every game which is coming out now) but not a extent where we forget that this is GR. In other words, take stealth approach.

Yes man it is my first ghost recon game and my second stealth game after splinter cell conviction . But still , there should be option to reduce the difficulty . Plus for the first time i am prefering xbox 360 controller over keyboard and mouse .

hi guys, anyone experienced any problems with the sync shot mapping (for less than 4 targets)? it is mapped to the "Q" key in the second mission, but later on in the game, it gets mapped to the LMB. that creates a problem as even if don't have a clear shot, i have to shoot a bullet anyway, creating lesser score in the end.

I forgot to tell about the game itself :p , its good. cover system is excellent. controls are very easy (Xbox 360 controller :p)

Pros-
Good gameplay and story. better than BF3 (yea i'm saying that :p)
Easy to navigate and control the character.
GFX is good but there are -ve also.

Cons-
Game not optimized .. even at 720p, I get low framerates on my config.
Cannot change settings when in game. you need to exit to main menu to change any settings.

I tried 1080p with everything set to max.. and I was getting 17 FPS. on 720p with med settings I was still getting 50 FPS.. so there is serious issues with the optimization of this game.

coming to MP. I never managed to get into a game. there is no server browser at all, I do get into a game launch screen, but the connect get disconnected once the game starts.. so I still need to test MP.

My Rating . 5/10 - points only for story and cover system. gfx , MP doesnt get points..

I will re rate this game once I am satisfied with MP.

Completed the game .. This game is better ( and easier ) than any previous Ghost Recon title - you don't need to control and baby feed your team to tell them when and which cover they should use, the use of camo suite, silenced weapon, intelligent team AI made it more realistic except the auto healing system like CoD series ;-)

The gameplay is great with almost no major flaw, control system is fluid but carrying weapon with lots of ammo and random ammo crate just don't match the climate of a tactical shooter ( compared to the previous GR titles ) and though the story started well at the end it somewhat lost it's grip - overall; this is a good game - suitable for newcomers in GR series and the old players of GR/RSV series will find many interesting things - so as for rating this gets 7.5 from me.
