The Division. Are we interested?

The exp and keys I find easy to believe... but 100k funds? Jesus. Maybe it's done on a who 'tagged basis'. If killing a level 5 rogue rewards 10k credits, if 10 people tagged him then there is your 100k ha!

The amount you "lose" is based upon a percentage formula

Tip here is obviously to keep spending your credits so you don't lose that many. If he lost 100k he must have had like 200k in the bank.

useful info on how "public" and "private" drops work in the dark zone. The same kind of idea applies to keys / credits. Just trying to find the specific maths

Got to Manhattan and the first group of rioters I ran into awarded me a Blue M416.

Very nice of them.

Need to grind it out tonight, only rank 5. More than happy with the looks and side missions, think I will enjoy this.

I think you are going to have to host the missions, rank 18 now so that blue m416 won't do you much good :p

Haven't seen time square yet, def. doing that later on!

Can't believe people don't think this game looks, even with a few settings dropped, the lighting, snow etc. looks superb and so much better in motion especially the one with police car lights:

I sat yesterday staring at a poster on the wall, which was flapping around in the wind. Was pretty impressed with that.

so with everything on max, at 1080p i was getting 30 fps. (Gsync, so i dont really care) however after changing a few settings im getting a solid 50-60 avg with no (to my eye) difference, (except object detail was only on 40% so i whacked that up)

That does look pretty awesome, what settings you playing it on?

Rank 18 in normal or DZ? Been watching some streams of this, and the weapons people have are unreal compared to what I have :p

yeah the nvidia information sheet showed you the minor differences and where you could save a few fps.

You are in the wrong sub forum you console peasant :p

Can't remember exactly but iirc, everything on max except these ones;

Particle Detail - high
Depth of Field - medium
Volumetric Fog - medium
Contact Shadows - all low
Object Detail - 50%
Streaming Distance - 50%
shadow - high
No AA - using kputts sweetfx with SMAA
CA and vignette off

FPS varies, outside about 40-50FPS with dips to 35 and inside, more or less locked to 60FPS. Got to say though, even with the fps dipping to 35, it doesn't feel too bad, certainly a lot smoother than other games in that FPS area. I'm using the "auto" vsync option.

Have been so engrossed in the game and obsessed with getting better gear, those are the only screenshots I've taken! :p

Rank 18 in normal, haven't been in the dark zone yet.

Yeah, I saw a reddit post the other day, some guy had ALL yellow guns and gear...... :o

From the top of my head, I think I have all blue, one green gun and 1 purple item, stats are about 7k for DPS, 14/15k for health and 3k for skill

No drama I'll just solo or find some randoms to link up with.

Where is the fun in that?!

I'll join you, will make a nice change in pace from playing against much higher level NPC's :p
 
Guys guys guys, you've tried NOTHING til you try and run the bugger at 4k!!!!! Got it running well with a few of the non-essentials dropped and HBAO+ (which is a massive improvement imo) and I'm more than happy :) :cool:

Almost tempted to plug my X34 back in to see how it runs on that, but I think the full 4k experience is here to stay...

(doesn't like my Ti's being overclocked though!!! :eek:)

I don't want to hold you back is all, hopefully Crispy will re-surface soon and get on, we can once again be lowbob ranks together.

Although I fear his new job has turned him into a super mutant. Must be a reason he has been away for so long.

PC Settings, the consoles thread is thataway ------------->

:D

For single player missions? Just matchmake with randoms, might find it easier, and can always up the difficulty for better rewards. If DZ, I'd link with Nex etc, at least they can help, DZ is such a pain if you're low level.

Yes yes, I know :p I'll be back on properly soon!

Doesn't sound too bad to be honest, with the laptop I'm getting, I'll probably have to have it on low/medium, but after playing on console, I'm sure it'll look better anyway :p

The game certainly has a certain draw to it I feel, like it makes you want to keep playing more. Although I suspect that aspect of the game may dwindle once you've collected all yellow gear but that's a long way away yet.

If going in the DZ, group with the regulars, what I've found about going solo in DZ is that it's tough, especially as it starts 1-10 and most I've seen are the high end of that bracket, so if you get a couple of people who go rogue, you've got little to no chance, not to mention the AI, I've come across 15-20 rank and when you're just starting, you may as well be using a spud gun.

Not bothered in the slightest, like I said, it will be a nice change in pace and I'm in no rush to get to rank 30 etc.

Yeah was wondering where he was the other day, maybe this new job of his is awful as he is on the port 24/7! :p

BTW, try to equip stuff that has XP bonus and when you get to the tech wing. try to get the perk which has the calibration desk unlocked, means you change something 5% reduce damage to 3-10% or whatever increased XP. Will help you to level a bit quicker.

Even with medium settings, it will still probably look better :p Look through the nvidia geforce guide, you can change a lot of demanding settings with very little decrease in IQ.

I am giving it about 1-2 months until I get bored, hopefully the season pass and DLC will be cheaper and add extra life into the game by that time...

Yeah, I am def. not going in by myself lol, going to buy a few more purple items before going into the DZ.

The randoms I have played with have been OK actually, I have done a few of the missions under levelled, with 3 other people and we passed it.

Im intrigued to see what sort of a whooping I will get in the DZ on my own... :P
 
I've noticed that the community seems pretty alright actually. I've done a couple of missions on hard with randoms and they have been pretty nice towards one another and there wasn't any toxicity.

I love playing it on the x34, one game that actually makes use of the superwide well even the UI will move out without much hassle at all.

Though I'm tempted to get another 980ti for sli and see if that boosts performance.
