This game is Top Tier. I like it a lot. It's like a mix of GTA, Day Z, Far Cry.

1) The World. It's beatiful. It does really seem like a real world. The nature is just wonderful: there are different terrains and they are feel great. It feels beatiful, cozy, relaxing, interesting at the same time. I played Far Cry 5, 6, GTA, Day Z and some other games, but this one just has a special feel. Many time I wanted to stop and just enjoy the view alone.

2) The Plot. I think it's great. It has everything I wanted it have. Maybe the next step would be the world changing upon you completing mission rather than being in a kinda static shape. I didn't feel overwhelmed with story and I really digged it. I watch all the bosses video tapes as soon as I have access to them. I read all the notes and enjoy some history notes, some stories and especially recordings. I wish I knew Spanish in order to understand the balladas as well.

3) Gameplay. The best thing about this game in my opinion is a CO-OP experience. I don't think you actually need more than 2 people in your party. I played as a trio but it felt way too rushed for some reason. Two is just the best.
This games knows what it's best at and thrives in it. The drone experience been so good that you start wondering why nobody else does that. All features are well thought balanced and easy to grasp. Driving cars could feel not as good but with some time you get used to it and don't even notice. The helicopter controls are very comfortable and make easy to do some hard moves. The best about heli is that you just float when you are not pressing any buttons unlike in other games. Your teammate can use a drone from the heli as well but it failed us couple times so if you are scared of blowing up and dying, probably avoid that.
I started at medium difficulty defeated like 10 small bosses and then when I reached Tier 40 lvl the game had to be switched to hard diffuculty. It made my friend and totally re-evaluate our style. We have to be very tactical now, scout everything, don't let enemy surround us, think more about positions and wats to go back.

It feels like this game is for the players. So many things that are made so easy to use that you wonder how the come up with this:
1) You see all the guns in your inventory page and you can find the exact location(area) where the gun is and where are the parts you need for it.
2) Unless you tp or die, you don't have any loading screens at all. AT ALL. That makes the gaming experience so smooth. You just go from location to location by foot, car, heli or plane. And where ever the mission, events take you, you just go from there. It made us discover a lot of map without actually completing anything. It does bring the open world feeling to it.


And special place for customisiation:
1) Looks. You can change your outfit at any time, you can save a couple of your outfits and change them every hour if you wish to. Super easy, a lot of items available from the very start. And you have 30+ colors for a lot of the items, so you can either make the whole thing from 1 camo type that you love or make cool mixes in between them.
2) Weapons. You can change the weapons at any time, change parts, change color. That helps a lot when you are doing different types of missions and you don't have to overthink it and can use any weapon at any time.
3) Playthough. You can really start from any area or boss in this game and it doesn't feel wrong and you don't have to commit either. We walked to Libertad a 5 star area and it was overwhelming, so what did we do? Just went to the one nearby with 3 stars and didn't have to struggle though it.
4) Playstyle. You can go guns blazing on easier difficulties but even that is different from lets say far cry. You can be stealth or you can attack and drag the enemies in side your terrotory, blow them up with mines, granates, explosives, drones and kill them with the help of night vision, drone or thermoscope.

With all of that said, imho it deserves 5/5. I am happy I found this game with a help of a friend of mine cause unfortunately it doesn't appear on any co-op mutliplayer best/recommended game lists from the magority sites.
