Not a bad list, no? It definitely shakes up the Ghost Recon formula somewhat. Now on to the bad news. Over on Twitter, the official Breakpoint account confirmed that Ghost Recon Breakpoint offline play is NOT allowed. Nope, the game requires a ‘net connection to play just like The Division, and Rainbow Six Siege, which are both Ubisoft titles.

Make sure to check out this 13-minute video of Breakpoint gameplay to see what you’ll get to experience come this October 4. Those who’re interested in pre-ordering, here are the different editions of the game, with the higher tiered ones letting you play it early.

Lots of toys… but no depth for real Teamwork and Strategy game play. I’m sure the kiddies will love it and will badger their parents to death to buy it for them for Xmas. I’m looking forward to skipping this one and saving my money too.

God… just remaster Battlefield 3 for the PS4 and lets get on with it!!
