- Hey guys welcome back and today we're taking a look at a classic, the original Ghost Recon! While for some of you this is a trip down memory lane for me this is a first time look at where the series started! Ghost Recon has definitely come a very long way and while I do enjoy the newer games they've made I have to say there is something extremely satisfying about successfully executing a well planned maneuver.
So far I've really enjoyed my first taste of this game and I'll definitely be coming back to it so be sure to let me know if you guys want to see more! :) - เกม

What do you guys think about that squad mechanic? Would you want to see Ghost Recon change from an open world small team game back to this more linear squad management style shooter? I'm definitely curious what you guys think!
I'd like this style of gameplay with Wildlands/breakpoint graphics and some future soldier style cinematics. Forget about the pvp
I think an open world with the squad mechanic would work really well. Different squad sizes needs to be in the next game. 4 man Recce team, 10 man assault team would be good. They definitely need to sort out the ai team in the next game.
Keep the team still a small squad or you can increase it a little. Keep the open world/size of the game, the less linear the better, it adds to the replay value (though you can still have linear moments for story purposes). Bring back this squad management style, and slow down the gameplay to be less arcade-y. Slower gameplay with more control over your squad brings more weight to your decision making. Finally for the love of God, if you include pvp, make it so people get punished for just running around in the open instead of just rewarding people for running in circles in the open (taking advantage of hitbox glitches) waiting for the enemy to shoot at them only to not hit them and shoot them after and 1 tapping them, with no penalty for their aim just after sprinting and strafing 10 seconds straight. The current pvp in breakpoint is a mess, because at the root of the game its a tactical shooter but its also trying to be an arcade shooter to keep up with the like of modern day crap shooters like modern warfare and battlefield unfortunately. People buy Ghost Recon games to play a tactical game.
@@---uk1xt Yeah as much as I enjoyed the PVP in Future Soldier, the devs haven't been able to make anything good in the newer titles. In my opinion it's best they just leave it for after if they want and focus on the PVE.
The real time control over my squad was also something that made the game easier than the classic Rainbow Six games as well. Rather than having to plan out the individual routes of every squad for the whole mission and redoing everything if I screw up, I can tackle things in more manageable chunks and change strategies when something inevitably goes awry.
An actual ghost recon game
Yip
This is the game that made me fall in love with the franchise. It was EXTREMELY unforgiving. Your soldier gets killed, that's it. He's gone. Every decision had consequences. I miss it.
That's what was crazy cause if they had developed skills and they died they were gone from the game and you got replacements who were basically fresh out of training. They don't make games like this anymore
@@Theplaymaker1271 exactly my friend. The closes thing the Ghost Recon franchise came back to that is Ghost Mode in Ghost Recon Wildlands.
Alright my first Ghost Recon game was Wildlands, but I played this one and boy it's something special
The fact that you play wildlands and went back to the first and enjoying it is so dope cause I grew up with it in my life and 20 years later I still replay it like crazy longevity is key
This is when Tom Clancy games where synonymous with realism and authenticity.
Wildlands is peak ghost recon imo
For me, this is more than just a game.2002, I am 8 years old, I live in the small town of Zeya in the far east of Russia. I just went to the second grade of school, we lived very poorly and I always dreamed of a computer, and at the beginning of the school year they bought me a PC. How glad I was then, there was a ghost recon icon on the desktop green windows xp meadow. I came home after school, my mother was at work at a hairdresser, my father worked at the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the house was not empty, a dachshund and a cat were running around at home, I immediately sat down at the computer, poured hot tea, it was snowing outside the window and I played for a long time to this wonderful game. Then it seemed that everything was so unimportant, that everything would always be like this, good and calm.
Now I am 29 years old, I have been living and working in China for a long time and cannot return home yet. That cat and dog are long gone, the parents are no longer young. I remember those times with warmth, this game is more than an ordinary game for me, with it there are a lot of good memories of the past, of the good past.
oh man...that is a beautiful history
I relate so much to what you said and I'm 29 too
We're the same age, I had almost the exact same experience although I live in Scotland, it was my uncles old pc. He got a new one and I finally had a computer. On it was this game and a bunch of other similar ones. Swat 3, rainbow six, etc.
Also the snow was rain for me and I only had one dog. Still at some point we both sat and played this game and now years later we look back fondly on those memories together even though we're thousands of miles apart.
That's pretty damn cool.
This game brings back so many memories. 11 years old, sleep overs, tons of mt dew, trying dip for the first time
Those were the days, dude! Loved that game, definitely childhood memories. That game was ages ahead of its time. Nice showcase of the mechanis, brings back memories.
I was 10 or 11 when this game came out and I put many many hours into it. I remember being so hyped reading about it in PC Gamer magazine before it released since I loved all the other Tom Clancy movies and Rainbow Six games. Despite the tough learning curve for the age I was, it was a blast! I remember my favorite special character was the sniper "Jack Stone" with the ski mask. I had made up a personality for him in my head and imagined he was some sort of cold-blooded badass type guy with a raspy Solid Snake like voice lol. In one mission, I earned the Medal of Honor with him and that blew my freakin mind haha. Mainly played as him for every mission unless I needed a rifleman/rocket guy.
God, this game rocked!!! Graphics were stunning for the time too. The draw distances were unparalleled at the time, even for PC. Luckily my dad had a decent machine to run it on. This first mission was very chill and each mission would significantly increase the difficulty and enemy numbers. I could talk about this game all day. Loved the expansions too. Corporate greed in modern gaming will probably never give us a tactical shooter like this again :(
This brings back memories for me because back when I was younger I used to play this exact game on my computer. But then I lost the game and the computer in a house fire
I'd love to see more of this! This is personally my favorite Ghost Recon and my favorite tactical shooter in general. I love this game because of the lethality, smart friendly & enemy AI, tactical options, replayability, overall immersion, and the fact that it does all of this while avoiding the superfluous mechanics of sims such as ArmA which makes this easy to learn and hard to master. Also, there's an amazing mod for it called Heroes Unleashed which perfects the game in so many ways that it's impossible to list here and I highly recommend it. Whether you want to play that before or after playing through vanilla is up to you and you can't go wrong either way.
After finally getting to try this game I can see why so many people loved it, I'll be checking out that mod later I've heard it's pretty awesome!
Finally a playthrough of this game with commentary.
The fact that the conflict that’s being described in the first mission actually happened after the game was made is kinda wild af ngl
Yeah, except Russia occupies all of Ukraine effortlessly in the game.
@@asch7906He’s referring to the Russo-Georgian war which occurred in 2008, not the Ukraine-Russian war. Funny enough, the conflict in the game occurs in 2008
Some grew up on Zelda, others Forza, me and my brother were practicing sink shots in Georgia, Russia, Ethiopia, and Columbia. God I just want a remaster of these og games
Next GR can still be open world. Just make it like the OG movement/action coordination down to the level of micromanagement like old school rainbow six.
Don't forget binoculars! Every soldier has good distance vision with them, not just the sniper.
Oh no kidding. I had no idea I had binos haha I'll have to check the keybinds and see which button it is! :)
I'm still playing GR 2001 and I'm loving every minute of it.
Jack Stone was my main specialist, badass with the balaclava
I can never wrap my head around how they get games so wrong now compared to how they got them sooooo right
Shockingly, I played every Rainbow Six game on the PC from 1998 to 2008 (not a fan of Siege) but I never bothered with the original Ghost Recon. My first game in the series ended up being Future Soldier. So I ended up buying the original Ghost Recon on Steam and boy does it bring back memories of the original Rainbow Six. A very fun but unforgiving game.
Great video! Glad to watch a classic and epic tactical game. 👍👍👍 More of this please.
Thanks!
This video single handedly brought me back to ~7 year old me playing this... Not that i knew much about tactics at that age but i had a fucking blast playing this... They will never make games like these anymore
This is a classic!!! Hope to see let's plays of other Ghost Recon titles.
If I can get my hands on GRAW or GRAW 2 I would for sure!
I thought every fps game was going to be exactly like this til the end of time now I seen that pink hair girl cut scene & I literally want to bludgeon the CEOs at their board meeting. Anyways, I got this game a few months after Rainbow 6 came out & I feel like this game (along w/ reading The Ranger Handbook) made me a better player in all future games. I know it's your 1st vid w this game but I'd say once you get better at the keyboard layout...first, don't worry about recon mode unless there's some ambush you're setting up or hostage rescue. I usually leave it on suppress constantly. Second, move teams to better angles, faster, in real time & put them on hold if things get heavy. If you want to achieve experience in other games play this for a while to learn better tactics/teamwork. It will carry over. Lastly, utilize your 203 more, especially in big maps. Double lastly, get the ranger handbook.
Would love to see more Ghost Recon missions
I just watched Clear and Present Danger, crazy seeing the Tom Clancy lore. Some of those characters end up founding Rainbow 6, but I like to think those operators set the roots for Ghost Recon in the future as well.
I used to love this game as a kid. I remember always roleplaying scenarios in my head as I moved with my ai squad lol. Good times, they definitely don't make soldier games like this anymore.
This game and jungle storm were so much fun growing up.😅
I miss this game So much and still think of it all the time. Ah..
This is the best of the Ghost Recon games, by far. I would not recommend playing with the default binds, though.
The DEFINITIVE benchmark against which ANY tactical game should be compared.
Love this games till now still remember the environment surrounding .
Might be my Al time favorite. I sunk countless hours on this.
A classic. Love this game. Good times.
My childhood game 😍
What a great game. Played the demo off xbox magazine, went out bought it next day. Worth every penny
TY! It is in fact the best tactical shooter to date!
My friend and I used to to do 1v1s to 3 kills one hour time limit lol. I recently came back to this and I absolutely love it. Id love to do a co op campaign again. If somebody could mod this to add achievements and a leader board with a score system.
I loved it when my snipers just go rouge and blow everyone away in sight, no fancy semi-auto DMR's either, they were full bolt action lmao
grew up on this game
I miss this Ghost Recon, ubisoft of today would absolutely desecrate this game if they remastered it
Found memory as i played alot of matches, and we won the europe gold in pvp !
This what the next ghost recon should be like actual freedom moving your squid from one place to another
Have you tried the Heros Umleashed Mod. Adds 300 missions
This game absolutely rocks. One of the best. The AI is still some of the best in any game ever.
I got this ghost recon on my laptop 💻 and I have 2 expansion packs the desert siege and Island thunder it's very good game when I choose Quick Mission mode I can used Enemy weapons like the AK-47 The AK-74 VZ.58 PKM Machine SVD Dragunov why In the campaigns you can used M16 m4a1 m24 sniper rifle and m249 daw I like pc version rather than PS2 version.
Miss the games. Where can download it?
The game was for free on Ubisoft Connect 3 years ago for celebrating its 20th anniversary. Why didn't you grab it?
Sound system is the best until now
For a moment I thought it was a new video about Ghost Recon, I need at least one video a week, come on man! 😅 Still good video but when new video of Ghost Recon 4K without comments? Greetings 🇲🇽
Haha I know I won't lie I've been so distracted playing Elden Ring I didn't even realize how many days had flew by! No worries though I got a more proper schedule now and I'll keep in mind one of those No Commentary videos :)
@@rossmangaming8540 You are great thank you! I really enjoy those kind of videos while having dinner or taking a break, so keep uploading them, still enjoy Elden Ring haha ;)
Steam version still work on win 10???
I'm playing this on Ubisoft Connect, I'm not sure if Steam does have this game but I'd assume either way it'd work :)
yes mate! i play steam version on windows 11 and its fine
Looks like modern mil sim games like arma
only one episode?
Make a video on how to start the game?
I play the game wrong the whole time. lol
Ubisoft needs to go back to making Tom Clancy games synonymous with realism and authenticity. Now there trendy aesthetics from Fortnite, Street Culture and Wokeness and play like COD.
Those jerks from Ubi only care about the crappy Rainbow Six Siege.
They don't make games like this anymore... why..?
Xbox Live days were a fun run. Then Rainbow Six 3 came out and took it to another level.
Xbox live was fun as hell, though I don't miss having to pay to play online haha.
@Inspector Lupita No I just play on PC now, I'm sure Xbox live is still a thing.
Ghost recon needs to return to this formula. Have missions take place in large sandbox environments where you are given free reign to tackle objectives how you want and in any order. Wildlands and Breakpoint are terrible ghost recon games but they're not bad games per se (well breakpoint isn't now) it's nonsensical to have a military shooter be open world like far cry, it's a big world with a whole lot of nothing and why tf are there shops for you to buy and trade at? It's a military shooter not fkn far cry or gta. Just have a more grounded setting with grounded equipment and cosmetics and a grounded story.
The sound of crickets really doesnt help how boring this looks.
Definitely do away with the PVP and just make it PVE
As much as I loved Future Soldier's pvp I have to agree, the devs have yet to really show they can make a good pvp system and it tends to get abandoned immediately because of it. It's best they focus on pve first in my opinion.
@@rossmangaming8540 yeah forgot about future soldier PvP lol that was decent. I've yet to play breakpoint PvP it doesn't interest me. There's better games out there. I'd like to see a game that you can play coop but everyone has their own ai team with them. 4 teams of 4 on the same map would be cool, setting up sniper over watch and coordinating an assault from different approaches. Ditch the gash storyline of breakpoint to and go old school ghost recon 🤙🏻 I hope they get the next game right
@@notoriousbc6090 To a limited degree you can do that with this game either in co-op or PVP. It's called AI backup but it can not be run with respawns at the same time.
I played this and now i hate all modern games
The funniest thing about Ghost Recon 1: Russia managed to conquer Ukraine in it.
I think in the precursor story (you can find it in the archives on the main screen), Ukraine joins them as part of an ultranationalist alliance to avoid aggression rather than being conquered.
It doesn't look as fun as the modern iterations.
The newer games are definitely fun, I think the enjoyment I get from this is being able to set up plans using that tac map and then executing a well set up attack.
