Gaming Tom Clancy's - The Division | Division 2 announced

Got my code off Amazon, but no email of dispatch. Not worried as I am a prime member and it is one day delivery. I'm predicting that I will get my copy at 9pm tomorrow.
 
Yeah quite a few people on my PS4 list are playing this currently. Wish I had gone with shopto or simply games now. But Amazon had the gold edition.
 
Hadn't really considered getting it with a huge backlog of games and Quantum Break/Dark Souls 3 out over the next month but am quite tempted to make an impulse purchase tomorrow...someone talk me out of it!

Tom Clancy’s The Division 1.01
After the success of the Closed and Open Betas, our team has been hard at work to fix a lot of issues and implement more improvements based on your suggestions. Take a look at some of the most notable changes that have been added since the Open Beta.

FIXES AND GENERAL IMPROVEMENTS

  • Fixed an issue on character select screen that resulted in getting stuck with a specific combination of inputs
  • Fixed a progression blocking issue caused by accepting a group invite at a specific moment during the Base of Operations unlock sequence
  • Players will no longer return all the way back to start screen after creating or logging in to their Ubisoft Club account
  • Fixed remaining bugs that prevented log-in attempts when non-essential services were offline
  • Overall stability increased

  • Localization adjustments and bug fixes
  • Additional minor bug fixes and polish
Please keep giving us your feedback and suggestions as we will continue improving the game. After all, launch is just the beginning!

For those of you playing this and other games on PC, do you use a gaming pad of some sort? If so, which ones?

Wired xbox 360 4 lyfe.

I have my PC hooked up to my TV, using a wireless mouse/KB on my leather chair is a pain (keyboard on lap, mouse on arm of chair). Had to stop playing Mass Effect 3 because of it, struggled through the first two.
 
Seems decent I've enjoyed my first couple of hours in the game. Still not 100% sure what build to go with but I did the first medical mission and I like the heal ability you get.
 
Im just about to go on this for the first time. Had some reservations about it because Im more of a single player kinda guy and there are a lot of douchebags online when you team up with strangers to play a game but given how excited I was when I first saw it I just couldn't pass on it.

Prepared to be disappointed. Mike is currently being a dickhead.

He just wouldn't let anyone play (mike is the codename of a connection error) although he's allowing me to play now

Oh I thought Mike was some fella on here I had never met before! :lol:

Ah right I get it now, good old Ubisoft problems.
 
Yeah, I just put an entire Scar-L round into someone and they received no damage. About 10 seconds later a server error popped up and I was sent back to the start screen.

EDIT - Reconnected and was lying dead on the ground apparently. :lol::(
 
Today looks like it's going to be a struggle lads.... Servers have kicked me out 3x on PS4 in the past 20 mins. Shooting enemies has no effect at times. Uh oh.
 
I'm getting kicked out constantly too when I tried it. Going to come back to it later on because its just annoying me now and I have some work to get done.
 
What? How are they struggling. It's not even peak time. Wait until 8pm tonight. Ridiculous. What was purpose of beta?
 
Thank christ I'm working from home today, things should slow down in an hour or so when everyone fecks off to work. Tonight is going to be a pain in the hole when they are really getting hammered.
 
So is Brooklyn just a tutorial section? Do you get your base of operations when you finish this bit?

Brooklyn is the tutorial yes. That is all i played. Did not seem to have any issues last night on the PC and quite frankly i was shocked tbh when it comes to Ubisoft
 
So I was coming in here maybe considering an impulse buy today but the last 5 or so comments make it seem this is clearly a typical ubisoft game :lol:
 
Haven't had any issues here wither - no connection problems - all seems very smooth at the moment.
 
Im going to go back and give it another go now, see if it has settled down for me at all. Fingers crossed.
 
Error - Delta 2000984 is getting REALLY annoying now.

EDIT - This made me laugh though... simple things and all that

Played it for around two hours now with no issues. Didn't play the beta because I wanted to wait for the full release so this is my first experience. Loving it so far, game looks great and I love the whole looting and crafting stuff. I'm only level 5 at the moment but its definitely the most enjoyable game I have played on release in a while now apart from the frustrating issues I was having early this morning.

Platform?

I'm going on ps4 now for anyone else who is around. I'll also mic up. However don't expect me to use "contact" "got your six" etc, I'm the type of person more likely to say "get the cnuts" "there's some motherfecker here" "ahhh run there's someone behi... feck I'm dead"
