Ghost Recon Future Soldier beta impressions

So I was lucky enough to get a PS3 code for this.

Played a few games and pleasantly surprised - nice shooting, seems to reward teamwork and slower paced gameplay.

Excellent weapon customisation. Anyone else in, thoughts?

The beta is out?

I still have that code from Conviction.

Sounds like a CoD clone.

See this is why I am a PSN+ member. Free games and every beta you can think of in regards to the PS3. I'm about to play it in a minute after I had some coffee.

I have Splinter Cell: Conviction, so I 'spose I will try and install it later today :]

I hope I'm able to play a bit of it. I don't have Xbox Live Gold anymore so multiplayer might now work, if it's got that.

If this game is anything like Ghost Recon Online then it's going to be crap. I played GRO and all anyone ever does is be sniper and camp choke points. Then all they have to do is pop up and snipe someone (snipers are basically 1hk) as people try to rush them down a long corridor. I hope Future Soldier doesn't follow the same crap map design as GRO.

I really hope this game lives up to GRAW 1&2. They were great tactical team based games with a very mature and loyal community.

My only experience with the game was on the 360, so that it my only viewpoint.

When i'm on the map the mill, i feel like im in Resident Evil 4 im waiting to hear "matalo!".

Am cautiously optimistic. For everything else they've done wrong with the Tom Clancy games, Ubi tends to turn out some pretty great multiplayer.

I earned a code off raptr for 360, but not sure if I'll bother using it or give it away. Just because I generally disliked the series thus far.

I got invited for 360. If anyone is anxious to get in, I can give you the code.

Actually I have two 360 codes, got one from Raptr too.

looks very promising! can't wait to play the beta and the final version, i'll definitely gonna buy it!

sounds like another generic military shooter. no thanks

I only played it for like 15 minutes and it was good. Gunplay feels fine.

This is what i personally thought about the game:

Goods:

• Gameplay is fast, character movement is smooth and quick, you can jump off walls and move around very easily unlike other TPS games like gears of war for example
• I liked how the game has a mini map GPS like system that guide you to where exactly you need to go to find the objective
• Killing people takes only 2 bullets ( which i also consider a bad thing )
• Controls are very easy to learn

Bads:

• Zooming in brings up a First Person View which isnt really needed, it should have a 3rd person view when zooming in like Uncharted.
• It adds nothing new one bit, everything in this game have been done before in other games ( this game is very similar to the Socom games)
• Killcam is complicated
• Your death is based on who see you first and who aim's faster, thats about it. you die with only 2 bullets.

Your death is based on how well you coordinate with your team. This isn't CoD.

played 2 games, promptly deleted it *360 version*

I've been in too many so called beta's to know that not much is changed in the fianl product, atrocious lag, no reason to be an engineer, cover mechanic that locks you into cover motions getting you killed.

[QUOTE="ultraking"]Just played some more a little bit ago. Some dude got the most epic kill on me , he jumped over a barrel , landed on the ground in prone , rolled and got me with a headshot. It was awesome lol. Being an old school socom player , I'm really liking all the teamwork. Everyone I played with had mics and people were very open to following directions. No COD rookies wanted in this game sts106mat
