Just started. Benchley - what in the name of ****? How are you supposed to kill this guy solo?

Is that the boss with the flamethrower? I found him pretty easy, just keep your distance as he moves pretty slowly. The whole area has a loop around it so it shouldn't be too bad.

If it is, try to lure him past the barrels & blow them up as he passes too.

I've read mixed reports. If it's a black screen have you tried using alt+enter to switch to windowed mode and back?

All sorted working well.

Has anyone tried this over a Steam Link to the tv? Whats it like as some uplay games have been a bit hit or miss for me, ac syndicate just wouldnt run well over the link at all for me

Thanks!

Any news? Also would it work any different buying the steam version or the uplay seeing as they would both require uplay anyway?

Thanks

Is your card overclocked or stock?

If its overclocked, try remove it, if its stock, try and under lock ever so slightly.

This game for mw didn't like my normal overclock so I had to reduce it.

Telecaster · 13 Mar 2016 at 10:08

Only just spotted this, is it is it worth it for single player as well or is it mainly co-op?

Finally some purples are showing up at the vendors.

Only thing I'm a bit confused about (might be lack of sleep or I'm an idiot) but when I select something in the vendors inventory it shows a positive gain yet upon buying and equipping it's produced a significant loss of attributes(no mods involved). Am I missing something rather obvious here?

For gear the green arrows just show a gain in armour, not overall stats. The same thing occurs with crafting too, I'm not sure if there is a way too see stats in these situations. Although I haven't really looked that much, I've just been assuming that "this purple is 5 levels higher than my currently equipped blue, then it must be better".

Anyone fancy some challenger Lexington Event Center missions?
need 100kdps+

Uplay: MemoriesSK

I have around 86k dps, 60k hp, 15k skill power and do great in the missions because of +18% damage to elites and +21% armour damage. DPS number might be a good indication if they are geared enough, but you can't rely solely on that number.

Ive played ~33 hours and I think I am done with the game for now.

- The Dark Zone is 99% PvE because the punishment for dying is absurd. Nobody is going rogue because everyone in the dark zone is swimming in purples, you are just going to get more purples from the people you kill, then lose huge amounts of dark zone exp and risk losing credits if you die. You might as well go and kill 2 bosses to get 9/9 dark zone inventory items then extract instead. There is no PvP at the moment.

- The only thing worth playing for is challenge missions. They are genuinely fun and a challenge, but they require a full group of 4 people to complete.

- Almost everything good for level 30 is purchased with Phoenix Credits. Ubisoft recently nerfed the drop rate so bosses now only drop 1-3, so it would take countless hours of farming the dark zone bosses for a single blueprint. The only reasonable way to get them is by doing challenge missions, which you need a full group for.

The only solo content that can get you geared (past purple) is doing the 3 daily missions on hard or farming the same dark zone bosses over and over again for hours and praying you don't just get another terrible purple to deconstruct.

I don't regret purchasing it as I enjoyed the game for 30 odd hours and I'm not going to uninstall the game. I am going to wait for Ubisoft to come up with a better solution for people farming Phoenix Credits too fast (change the nerf) and address the Dark Zone to give people a reason to go rogue.

ChrisLandin · 13 Mar 2016 at 10:55

No its stock.

Yaayuh! · 13 Mar 2016 at 10:59

I can't seem to launch the game without it crashing. Any ideas guys?

@Nexus

Thanks.

Will have a look at that later in game.

I am 99% sure I am cursed for loot in this game, haven't got a single purple pickup yet, wait I lie, I got a performance mod....... Where as Tess. and squeeze are getting purples like every 2 pickups?!?!?

Saying that, I think I might have a bug as when I kill someone and they are about to drop something, it goes purple but after a second, it is green.... Noticed it a couple of times now

Stats are messed up with the game, everyone has the same issue, some say logging out and back in fixes it. So don't go by the green/red figures in the top row

Not seen any mention of the developers addressing it either :/

ValiantUK91 · 13 Mar 2016 at 11:22

Screw it im buying it, whats the cheapest place to buy from? Dont think there will be many popping up in the MM

CyberCrow · 13 Mar 2016 at 11:23

The higher tier items purples don't drop from the start of the game,ive done 2 characters one lvl 30 an my current one lvl 16 or 17.

The purples started to drop/vendors roughly the same lvl for both characters, around lvl 13-14.

ExoMale · 13 Mar 2016 at 11:26

only played a few minutes of it as i was making a video, but while it started with the High Preset i selected the ultra preset for the video and very playable for what i was getting which was 11-22fps and im still using the 560sc @ stock and the ironic thing is while the fps was similar to what i got on the beta with the 750, the 560 must meet the minimum as i didnt get the warning like i did with the 750 lol.

im going to fiddle with overclocks on the 560, but i am hoping when i fit the 270x things will be much better

.

on another note, i did forget from the beta that theres no real pause as like that time, i died just after finishing the recording lol which is my only gribe about the game right now.

buy the game? i got it from gamesplanet late last night(after 10pm) with its current deal of £29.99, next will be cdkeys at £34 otherwise uplay, steam, origin and other online retailers are charging the orginal £39.99.

CyberCrow · 13 Mar 2016 at 11:30

Lol ive died loads of times by pressing pause an going off for a cig break or brew lol, i wish they would implement some thing other than just the safe house's

I'm rank 23 and been playing against rank 28+ guys as squeeze is rank 28. I can see purple items in all the safe houses and back at base but not getting anything on the hunt for loot

Maybe I need to do a mission or something first???
