Gameplay:
The game has most of the same game modes as the other Battlefield games like conquest and Capture the Flag but now the creatures have added new, more exciting game modes.
There are many new game modes in Hardline including "Heist","Rescue","Hotwire","Blood Money" and "Crosshair":
Heist- In this one team ,The robbers, rob a armored truck and the other team, The Police, must stop them before they get to the extraction point.

Blood Money- This game mode is when two teams race to the center of the map and collect money from crates and take it back to their armored truck. Teams can steal from each other by killing one another, the team that makes it to $5 million first wins.
Hotwire- In this, the traditional game mode conquest is remade in a different way. teams must get in cars and drive around draining the other teams tickets to win. Instead of capturing the flag they capture a car and the team who reduces the other's to zero or who has the most tickets when the time is up wins.
Rescue- This game mode is very simple, one team rescues the target and the other team tries to kill the rescuers. The two teams are S.W.A.T and Criminals, for the S.W.A.T to win they must rescue the target and for the Criminals to win they must kill all of the S.W.A.T before time runs out.
Crosshair- In this game mode Criminals are trying to kill a player controlled VIP on the cops side who is a former gang member turned states witness. The criminals win by killing the VIP and the cops win by getting the VIP to the extraction point.

My opinion:
In my opinion this is a pretty fun game, the new game modes are a nice addition to it. Along wit other different guns and very unique melee weapons. My favorite weapons to use is the taser, I find it very funny that in the gam it kills someone immediately unlike in real life. Also I personally like that they have some of the guns from older games in it still. There are some bad things about the game though, I think the campaign could have been better and just some little things about online that aren't that big of a deal. In the end I think I would give this game a 9/10 since it does have some problems.

Ubisoft describes it as one of the biggest open world games that they have ever published, with the game world including a wide variety of environments such as mountains, forests, deserts and salt flats.

Gameplay:
Wikipedia says, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands is an open world, tactical shooter utilizing a third person perspective with an optional first-person view for gun aiming. Players play as members of the Ghosts, a "fictional" elite special operations team in the United States Army. The game will not feature the futuristic setting used in Advanced Warfighter and Future Soldier, but will instead adopt a modern-day setting, similar to the original Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon. As a result the equipment featured in the game will be based on weapons and gear commonly used by military forces around the world. 
When completing missions, players can reach the location where the mission starts through a variety of ways. Players can parachute from a helicopter, walk overland, or drive towards their objectives. Players are allowed to use multiple ways to complete objectives, such as utilizing stealth, melee combat, or using the long-ranged or short-ranged weapons provided in the game.
When not completing missions, players can interact and build friendly or hostile relationships with other non-playable characters, such as citizens, officials or the rebels of the world. These interactions require strategy, as interactions will bring consequences and impact the game's world and change how players can achieve their objectives. Players can also gan experience points to level up. The playable character can be customized and loot found on enemies' corpses can be equipped by player characters.
The game features co-operative multiplayer, in which players can be joined by up to three other players to explore the game's world and to complete campaign mission. The game can also be played solo, in which the player will be accompanied by three AI teammates, which the player can give orders to.

My opinion:
I haven't played this game before, but I have heard that this game is very fun and I have also seen videos of the game which look very nice. The game quality looks very nice from what I see and the gameplay actions look incredible. I really want to buy this game since I have played other Tom Clancy's games like Rainbow Six Siege which is very fun to play with friends so this game being and open-world game must be very fun to play with friends. From what I saw, heard and researched about this game I would give this game a 10/10.
