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

FFS, got to the 1st checkpoint in the new incursion without any trouble, then a guy left and we couldn't matchmake with anyone else cos it kept kicking them out
 
So they managed to completely mess up the game for pc with this new patch. The level of incompetence is mindboggling.

How all these bugs that render the menus, map and other UI elements useless pass the testing I'll never know.

Well done, Ubisoft. You've really outdone yourselves with this one!
 
It looks good, but the menus/loadout/map seem to be really laggy on PS4. Need to give it another go see if it was just my internet/connection or the game.
Nah it was happening for everybody. Me and 4 others playing all said the same thing. Sure it'll be sorted easily.

Exactly same on the xbox as well. Very slow and laggy. Thought it was my xbox at first
 
My gear score is 198 but they keep putting me in the 201+ DZ.. I'd rather not be coming up against people with gear scores of 240 who've been grinding it since it came out.
 
Had one of my best DZ runs in the space of an hour. Joined a friend and a random in DZ 201+, extracted a final measure 240gs holster, a HE classic M1A 204gs, a few attachments and 39k dz coins. Balance my character to dps 198k, toughness 201k and skills still a poxy 11k. Most got from DZ 4.

DMG is 12.2k on primary AUG (204gs), 45k on the new M1A, and mitigated armor up to 68%.

I can increase DMG ever so slightly to 12.5k via mods but sacrifices toughness by 15k which is not worth it.

My Gearscore is now at 209 which I'm delighted with. Might try new incursion tomorrow.


:edit: another quick run, got 240gs striker kneepads, an upgrade on my 214gs striker ones! Also got lone star best but it is no good to me currently

Now DMG 12.6k and 46.7k as above weapons.
Dps 213k and toughness 214k with mitigated Armor now 74%

Tried the new incursion with randoms. We kept getting to the end boss part, but the mortars just riddled us in the end. Gave up after 5 attempts but with a proper group you'd have he done no problem.

Went to DZ then and got a 240gs striker glove. So I currently have a 4 striker gearset on and 1 final measure, I did also pick up a final measure mask though, will try recalibrate it later and see if I can get it good. Gone from 198gs to 218gs in no time and mic better well rounded stats. Coming across very little rogues thus far in 201+ bracket

DMG on my Aug is now 13.3k, mitigated Armor 74.4%. Crazy how much good stuff you get in and around DZ 3 and 4. No point running up to DZ 5 or 6 from what I can see
 
Why not just perm ban all these feckers from the first time they cheat? I really don't understand shit like this.

Studies into it have found that banning people permanently does not dissuade people from cheating they simply immediately buy a new account and cheat once more to reach the level they were at before. Giving them lengthy bans and then allowing them back has people cheating less.
 
I don't know what it was, but @Mr Anderson was guarding something with his life in DZ06 :lol:

:lol: had a 204gs first wave vector, turned out to be meh anyway!! DZ 6 was a nightmare, we got kinda split up and we were each pinned in for a bit :lol:

Also got a final measure mask 240gs from a teal cache! So now running with a gearset of 3 striker and 2 final measure. Increased a few key attributes like health on kill to 23%, mitigated Armor now maxed at 75%, exotic damage resilience is 50% with the 2 final measure gearsets.

In theory I should last a little longer!
 
The new patch has really brought the game back to life. You no longer can run through the DZ with ease, and the loot drops are far more satisfying. It's revitalised that sense of the enemies being a threat and having to survive, rather than just run around and get in rogue battles.
 
Sure is. I'm hooked again. It is very rewarding once more, but in a sense I'm picking up so much good stuff already - it may top out quickly yet again. In 5 hours Of DZ since the update I've got my ideal loadout. Everything 240gs bar a HE 204 backpack, 3 striker and 2 final measure. almost all from DZ 3-4. Think they should have maxed it at 214gs up to DZ4, as there is virtually no point venturing further. Not seen any higher weapons that 204gs though, unless that's what drops in DZ5+
 
Hmm I might give the toughness and skills character a go with my unused gearsets, never really done anything more outside my 3 striker and 2 final measure. I only have 2 tactician mind, must have a look and see what can be done or if I'll have to slug it out in DZ and pick them up eventually.
 
I am also thinking of trying something different. Always been the same. Hit DPS as much as I can but against these level 34's, it can be a real struggle.

so a few questions.
What is exotic damage? I've heard its either damage from grenades etc, or damage from human players
What does bleed damage actually do?

Exotic is grenades, fire damage, explosives etc. Anything not bullets pretty much.

Bleed is a damage over time, so you effectively bleed out damage over a time period.

Other than what Adam's said above, I think that bleed resistance affects the speed with which you die after you get downed (you know the red circle around your guy, I think it drains a lot slower if you have higher bleed resistance, which gives your friends more time to revive you)
 
This really isn't a game for solo players, is it? I've been playing this for two weeks now and it's incredibly difficult when going solo. I don't play multiplayer on most games. Might trade this in and get Uncharted 4.

I pretty much solo'ed the whole PVE part of it, it's easy enough to do imho. I made sure i did a lot of the side missions before doing the next main mission for example.

The Dark Zone is Ok to solo in the lower areas. The difficulty is when it comes to doing missions on hard/challenging and trying to go about DZ4 on your own. Even then it's pretty easy to matchmake and find players to play with.

Why go solo? You can match make with other players really easy, majority of people don't talk either, unless you prefer communicating which is generally better/easier too.

You can matchmake for the dark zone or the safe area too.
