Hey there! I'm not writing this comment expecting the game to have a chance to be revived on GOG (even if I would be delighted if so), because we are talking about an ex title from Ubisoft, which requires servers for multiplayer... I know it's unlikely, compared to the competition.
Nevertheless! There are so many things I want to share, and so few characters!
GRP was my first multiplayer online shooter, and although I'm probably quite biased thanks to the nostalgia, I'm still pretty sure it was exceptional in many regards.
For me, it was mainly the gamefeel and atmosphere (music was top-notch), the freedom of movement (running, crouching, climbing, sliding, crawling, shoulder switch, smooth cover system...), the variety of weapon, the techs (big fan of Cloak even if most dismiss it as not very useful), most of the map and their design, the intense fighting (thankfully the respawn time wasn't too long, I was a bit reckless) and the tactical teamplay.
I guess the only things I regret is how the monetization restricted the future of the game; and not playing with friends more. A few friends introduced me to the game, but they all stopped pretty quickly. So even though we made a clan, I barely had occasions to actually train or planify with a team before starting a match.
Anyway, anyway.
GRP is definitely in my top 5 of all the games I ever played, I really miss it, I still dream about it, and I know quite a few others also do (there is an independent project looking into how to revive it, and a surprising amount of ex-players have manifested their interest).
I also believe GRP had everything in terms of gameplay to go much bigger, and that a lot of people have no idea of this game they would have absolutely loved.
I hope some day those people will get the occasion to discover and enjoy it.
Still hoping, still believing.
Also, if you ever read this, even though you probably all had other game projects: thanks to all of you developers who made GRP what it was.
I absolutely loved everytime to rush with my shield forward, knocking down one or two enemy operators and have my teammates run up from the behind and finish the ones lying down off. While I am already busy on the third guy and execute him with my shotgun, effectively wiping the entire enemy team in the process. Those moments were maybe a bit rare, nevertheless is gave huge satisfaction when the entire team was working as a unit. Those moments were unforgettable. I wish that back for sure.
Loved this game. I used to play it with my younger brother a lot. Really good times, 70% on Metacritics. But Ubisoft just cancelled everything because of Bolloré doing an OPA on it (the same way Ubisoft closed "The Mythy Quest for Epic Loot", also a great game). Originaly "Ghost Recon Online", then became "Ghost Recon Phantom", it was an online F2P game, not really the style of game we see on GOG, or maybe with a dedicated server.
This game was a hell of a unit when I was little so fun and nice yea sure they were just 6 classes you can play and choose but he'll if it wasn't so much fun and nice
SADLY UNPLAYABLE TO THIS DATE!
One of the most interesting shooters there was. It had a gameplay feel hat has never been created again. Something special right here. Fast paced action, yet intense and satisfying shootouts instead of instant kills. Very rare for a game with such small and packed maps.
Again, something very rare and special here.
Bro I have thousands of hours in this game before When I was young I was played a lot but a lot bro. I was living in this game for a looong time. That was like half of my life was stuck in this and I was enjoyed a lot. I hated ubisoft only because they have removed servers from this game. This game is not just like any others. And this love not because of only memory. This is something different and I dont even know how to explain people who didnt even play +10.000 hours. But I did. So I think only rare people like me can know what I exactly mean. I just hope this game back. I am also a solo game maker and I dont like play games probably. But if this game comes probably I will be addict of this game again and again. We need this game please just give me it. I want to feel my childhood times again. This is only thing remains from that times...
One of my favorite TPS with an amazing cover system, with gadgets to overcome deadlock, it was what a hero shooter was before hero shooters were a thing. But with enough tactical elements that gives it a military shooter feel with out too much of the hardcore aspect, this game should have never been shutdown with how popular it was but alas thats what happens when ubisoft moves forward.
For my opinion this is the most underatted third person shooter game that i played. As a player that spended 1195 hours on this game, i absolutely loved this game for two reasons: first reason by being free and second reason by being a fun game to play with friends. I still remember when my friend made a excel sheet for all good guns and for the best attachments, i still have that sheet to this day,i always played assault or recon. I hope this game will be one day revived but for now we just have to wait. Still sad to this day that game shuted down and got killed by micro payments.
I still remember to this day of how good the game looked for that time and also i remember the wierd wii u port that got released. Overall the game was a 10/10 masterpiece.

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.Top Action Fantasy Comedy Sandbox
