Many of the serious bugs are gone, but dedicated players deal with some other problems daily.
Some report that they have a hard time getting their friends into Wildlands’ different missions without them being dropped. That’s a huge problem, enjoying the game’s story with other people is a big part of its appeal. Wildlands is the largest open-world game Ubisoft has ever made.

Ghost Recon Wildlands Problems: Some Missions are Missing
Some players still say that Ghost Recon Wildlands won’t show them their next mission in its mission map. Ubisoft is aware of the problem but doesn’t have a fix yet. Instead, the company says that you should get yourself killed by enemy fire. Next, you should close the game and open it again.

Ghost Recon Wildlands Problems: Progress Gone After Switch Characters on Xbox One
One bug can wipe out all progress in Ghost Recon Wildlands. Don’t switch between profiles on the game’s home screen on Xbox One. Those that did report losing their entire game save.

Ghost Recon Wildlands Problems: El Gato or DJ Perico Missing from Region
Ghost Recon Wildlands problems don’t get more serious than missing NPCs needed to finish objectives. Players working to free some regions from cartel control could find EL Gato or DJ Perico missing. It’s a huge problem since they are a requirement for freeing their regions.
