Part of the issue is that there's not much of a sense of speed while flying a helicopter, so sometimes it feels like you're not really moving forward, even when you are. I don't have problems getting from place to place вЂ“ itвЂ™s just that I can't seem to fly in a straight line, and instead follow the trajectory of a rollercoaster as I repeatedly climb and descend in an attempt to maintain forward motion. What I do have a little trouble with, however, is flying helicopters - and it seems I'm not the only one. It's not exactly realistic, but it's fun. As I noted in a feature about driving like an idiot in open-world games, the game enables you to drive off-road and down steep mountains without damaging your car, which is great when you want to take a shortcut to get somewhere. Regardless of their handling characteristics, I find most vehicles are easy to drive, and Ghost Recon Wildlands is generally very forgiving when it comes to traveling from point to point. Vehicle dynamics seem to range widely: Some SUVs and off-roaders feel very vague and bouncy as you try to drive them down the road, while other cars are far tighter and can take corners reasonably well. From what I've experienced, vehicles largely feel the same as they did before - which isn't brilliant, but they're all drivable. Like many others who responded on the thread, I donвЂ™t particularly agree. Speaking of driving, I was intrigued by a Reddit thread posted by mozEXE, who feels that the game's driving has been improved over the closed beta. Since I'm familiar with Itacua and know how all its missions work, it shouldn't take too long before my squad and I are ready to jump into a vehicle and drive over to the new area. I did ponder about going there directly after starting the game, but since its missions seem a lot tougher than the ones in Itacua, I thought it prudent to stick to the starting area and level up there before moving on. What I'm looking forward to is checking out the Montuyoc zone, which wasn't available in the closed beta. I think that's largely because it features the same opening zone of Itacua, and I've essentially been retracing my steps as I've worked through its missions. From what I've experienced so far, the open beta feels very similar to the closed beta. Mike and I played the closed beta a few weeks ago, and despite feeling that the game is technically a little rough, we nevertheless enjoyed ourselves. Hopefully it'll stay that way over the next few days. Despite there being a few server issues yesterday, it seems that things are now running quite smoothly.

Ghost Recon Wildlands' open beta is currently underway, and continues through this weekend until early Monday morning.
