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

Are you PS or Xbone Damien?
PS (basically, what Ando said).

Managed to get myself up to lvl 28 tonight just doing the remaining missions and some side missions. The last one that pops up near the very beginning I can't access though because of a shutter blocking the way. Anyone had this before?
Unknown Signal? Took me a while to find the entrance
 
Yeah unknown signal. I think the entrance is meant to be the door but there is a shutter over it?!
 
Unknown signal? Haven't even been near that yet. Base of operation to DZ is my only route these days :lol:

Had a nice night on it tonight, couple of hours roaming DZ04. All the rogues were fighting 01 and 02 tonight, so they kept away. Came across one group of 2, fought a boss together and was on our way.

Got 2 HE items today. Another assault rifle (LVOC or whatever), to go with my Lightweight M4 and ACR....My purple Scar is still far better than all 3 though, and I got a mask, which again is worse than my purple one, but it was enjoyable tonight at least.
Got a HE shotgun last night also, can't say it was that good to use...
 
There's a different entrance.

Are you having me on here? I fully couldn't find anything at all last night after running round the building in circles for 20 minutes
 
It's live!
So my gear score is 152, so I will be in the lower DZ split - which I am fine with!

It says your gear score is the average score of all your equipped items. I changed my backpack from a HE to the paramedic backpack, and my score went down to 133.

So it doesn't take into account what is in your inventory - just what you have equipped. SO I guess it is open to OP players lowering their gear score to get into the lower DZ - although if they reequip I wonder if they will get immediately booted to a higher level DZ?
 
I have never really utilised the firing range before, but I decided to test a few attachments to see what really made a difference. the DPS counter is actually a lie really, I changed from 1 attachment which had +9% weapon damage and 25%critical damage(or something similar) to 1 with faster reload and and the same critical skill.

Now the new attachment raised my DPS by about 2000, by when firing on the test range it was actually 600 lower per hit. I decided not to use it anyway as I preferred the other larger magazine and critical chance, but it's proved to me you can't just believe what the game tells you.
 
My gear score is 146 which I didn't expect at all, thought it would be lower. Can swap out stuff to go lower and still maintain similar dps and DMG though.

5 less Pheonix credits for daily missions. You do get crafting material on top.

Yeah but the first attachment does more damage per bullet
The second just reloads quicker, saving time, meaning more bullets can be fired over a period of time

This is where the game has my interest really. If it was just a case of this one is better than that one I'd get bored extremely quickly. Due to mixing and matching with alternative attachments and so on though the game has a long life span for me and I change my set up all the time.

Yeah I understand that, but a lot of people are probably being duped into thinking it's the "more powerful setup". In theory though the reload time makes a VERY small difference, like what 2 seconds at the most?. Generally you're hiding in cover for that time anyway, so I personally would much rather have the extra damage across the whole magazine.

I do like the possible variations, I was just saying don't take it for gospel.

I totally get what you are saying, but sometimes it's about reading between the lines.
Accuracy ups the DPS. It doesn't actually affect the damage per bullet, it just assumes that more bullets will hit its target.
 
DZ was on fire last night, rogues everywhere trying to jack your shit.
I had to get a in a group of 4 and even then I only was able to extract about half the time, getting a group that knew what they were doing was essential.

I found that too, groups of around 6 rogues were attacking my makeshift group most the night, thankfully I never get anything of use from the DZ so they didn't have much to steal from me! They also kept waiting right outside the checkpoints to attack people the cnuts.
I was more annoyed that I finally reached level 30 in the DZ and they kept making me drop rank :lol:

I counted at least 3 to 4 groups of 4 rogues in the DZ waiting for the helicopter to drop during an extraction and tossing shock grenades as we tried to upload our loot. All hell would break loose at that point. I killed more than a few rogues last night, it was good times.
 
Downloading the patch now as I forgot to leave my playstation on. Is it true that the incursion is just one room with mobs spawning in waves?
 
Sounds like it was good fun last night. What lvl are you at @ravi2 I'll be on later tonight than I managed last night
 
I was fine and dandy last night. Rogues kept to the lower DZ. Came across one duo and we helped out each other out. Extracted 3 times with 2 HE and no problems at all

I didnt find any HE last night, probably because I was in DZ 1-2 and DZ 2-3. never ventured into 5-6
 
How come? At work atm

It's just waves of enemy, and every so often you have to get bomb from one of the NPC in the wave and plant it on a APC

It's also bugged as feck, currently can't access it as it's respawning me if i go near the mission area.
 
All the lads in work are jumping on later. Gonna be a bit of a race to see who gets the good HE stuff first.

Was gonna go the gym but think I'll skip and get straight on myself ha
 
Jesus got a decent few bits in DZ there. Killed a few named guys and got a HE lightweight M4 and the next pick up was a HE LVOAC! Both identical with mods, both also fairly identical in shooting range so went with M4 as it had better perks. Deconstructed a lot to build up a stockpile again. Also secured a supply drop but only got a angle grip and knee pads.

I was going to share the LVOAC with a mate but once you mod it, you can't share it even if you removed said mods.

I have decent flexibility now with the M4, my Vector and my Superior Classic M1A. Saves me having to craft or buy a blueprint for it, so will now build up coins and buy blueprints for gear.

Tried incursion earlier, got to the 5th wave before it bugged, can't get on again now as it keeps reloading as I get to the drain.
 
Apparently there's a First Wave M1A blueprint, and a Tactical Aug available from the DZ seller in DZ03.

Only downside is that the blueprint costs 286022 DZ credits, and the Aug 259251 DZ credits...

And you have to be DZ level 75...

:rolleyes:

Just as before you were level 30, all the good DZ content was locked to level 30, when you get to 30, everything gets locked to 50...now with the new levels, they have locked things to level 75.

Also, my gear score is 149, but it still puts me in the highest DZ category.

Seems a bit of a joke.
 
I've just got myself to lvl 29 normal rank. Anyone around on the xbone to help me get to 30 around 6 though as I've got to take the dog out now.

In fairness they made it clear the new blueprints would be locked behind DZ75 and 90 (they're ilvl 32). Not got too much of an issue with that given the old blueprints (if there) will still be DZ50 or below. What sucks is the huge price increase of the blueprints. Multiplied the prices 20x.
