Ghost Recon Breakpoint Is Ubisoft's Low-Key Live Service Disaster
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Breakpoint is a bad, bad game. Ubisoft was planning to make it better by February, but with only days before the month is over, its promised "immersive" update hasn't materialized.
At almost the last minute, Ubisoft revealed the update will take longer. Hardly surprising, considering Ubi tried to do in a few months what has taken other companies well over a year. This isn't just a performance patch - these large scale overhauls take time and resources - which might well be a poor investment if the game hasn't even sold well.
Which Breakpoint hasn't. The game was a critical flop and a commercial failure, but Ubi is persisting. It joins BioWare and Bethesda, who are persisting with their own disasters in Anthem and Fallout 76.
It seems every "AAA" company out there has to have its own live service disaster. Ubisoft's is Breakpoint.
