Playing Ghost Recon right now (rented at Hollywood Video, splinter cell was checked out) its pretty good, the AI is decent. Having some trouble with squad tactics. Not granular enough. I like the idea of point and click orders, and I think the interface for fireteam interaction is fairly good but I don like that I can't do something like this:
Your three go here. (Set way point) you Bravo 1 point this way (field of fire north) you bravo 2 point this way (field or fire west) you bravo 3 point this third way (field of fire east) or You, alpha 2 with your sniper rifle go hide in that building over there and stay put until you've killed everybody on the other side or Alpha 1 with your SAW sit tight here and lay down suppression fire on that piece of open ground between those buildings while the other folks in your team maneuver into assault positions... also the movement selections leave a lot to be desired (Advance, Advance at all costs, Hold). can't do this Go to Waypoint 1 using travelling overwatch hold until Alpha is in position Go to waypoint 2 bounding overwatch hold, etc. There are some large expanses of ground in this game and those bad guys are *realy* accurate when they shoot.!! Don't think I'll buy it...close, but not close enough for me (in this case) Could i be expecting too much? will ---- William H.
