I kinda like going solo in the DZ. You got to be sharp, use the radar perk, watch the minimap. Rogue hunting is fun. You can usually get an extraction done solo if you wait for a manhunt or big firefight somewhere and just leg it to the furthest extraction point and get stuff out quickly.
Major difference here is you can very easily team up with randoms in game inside the DZ. No messing about with LFG sites, going to orbit etc.
Played this earlier and was pleasantly surprised. Only did the story mission and went into the DZ for a bit. I'll leave it now til the game is out.
Must admit that it's a nice looking game as well. Clearly got a downgrade from the initial trailer but it still looks nice and has some very nice lighting and weather effects.

In the dark zone does DPS scale to the lowest level? Or can you come up against some one who's completely beasting it?
I agree with comments this can be boring etc if playing on your own. Played with few of my mates tonight and enjoyed it, Defo day one pick up.

The DZ is in levels so level 1 - 7 are grouped and so on.
Just had another few hours on it with two of my mates and I can't believe how much I enjoyed it. the three of us got wiped at an extraction by two campers who then got level 5 rogue and camped on a roof top with only one entry point which was a rope up the side of a the building. We got onto the roof of the opposite building and kept them pinned down for their 300 second countdown and when it expired they both started doing star jumps on the roof top so we filled them with digital lead, took our loot back and fended off the rogue hunters for a bit and extracted. Haven't had this much of a laugh since a few Destiny raids. Definitely getting this on release.
Has to be in a team though. Single player will be a grind and dull like destiny.
My big question out of this... How do you do star jumps ?
I've seen people doing them but as of yet I can't do any

Hold 'down' on the D-pad until the menu comes up, then point your right stick to the option and then release the d-pad. Works OK once you get used to it.
Have to say I'm leaning towards PS4....think I'm just getting old and like putting my feet up on the sofa

Spent some time with this yesterday.
Things I really like:
UI is excellent, I like how the inventory/menu system is done, I like that I can see how many rounds are in my holstered weapon, I like that I can see what skills my team has picked and if they are on cooldown.
Setting is great, weather effects and night/day effects look excellent.
Gunplay is good, I liked being able to suppress the A.I. while my buddy goes for a revive.
Weapon customization is fantastic, lots of options for how to set your guns up.
Player customization is fantastic. Even with only 4 skills in the beta it gives you a lot of options, especially when you can mod skills. Perks to come in the full game too!
Dark zone is an interesting concept, teaming up and trying to extract that precious loot when you see a group of rogues closing in on your position is tense and I haven't really experienced much like it.
Things that remain to be seen
How good and long the story is - The biggest downfall of Destiny was the crap story. It's uncertain how much content the full game will have.
What sort of end game content there is, what the max level is etc.
Is story loot going to be made irrelevant by the dark zone?

Well Tragedy is invisible. People turn away from it, run from it if they can. But someone’s gotta be there to pick it up, to push back, to put the first piece back together....
all aboard the hype train!!!
