10 Reasons You'll Want To Play Ghost Recon: Wildlands

Guns and explosives aren't the only way to tackle the cartels you'll be taking on in Wildlands, taking advantage of some of the United States Army's most advanced surveillance equipment.

Sniper scopes, night vision goggles and binoculars all play a crucial role in early reconnaissance and scouting before and during infiltration. This becomes massively more useful when playing multiplayer and your team mates are able to help tagging enemies on your shared HUD map.

Scouting enemies becomes far easier when a friend observes the base from the other side, spotting any soldiers, anti-vehicle weaponry and getaway vehicles you can't see from your perspective.

Without a doubt, one of the most exciting new additions to the franchise are the remote-controlled, deployable drones. Initially short-range and somewhat basic, these flying cameras can be deployed in safety and flown inside enemy territory to tag enemies, observe their patrols, and get an eye in the harder to see areas, like inside buildings and hangars.

Like most equipment in the game, they can be upgraded over time, allowing for added functionality such as night vision, longer battery life and greater range.

Just be careful you don't fly too close to a curious soldier. The drones are small, but they're not invisible, and hardly silent.
