Just hit level 30 and can't seem to find an answer for this on Div 2 forums, Ubi etc.

Is there any point in progressing through WT's if the upcoming expansion resets everyone back to level 30? Is it just a case levels work differently in the NY expansion? How does that transfer if you head back over to Washington? All feels weird to me.

Going to try this game again with my recent PC upgrades. Had constant crashing issues which I suspect was related to the 99-100% CPU usage.

Played a little bit last night, seems much more stable which is good! Not sure if that was due to the upgrades or just general game patches, last I'd played before this was probably 4 months ago.

I tries running this yesterday and even though my system is borderline supported (at least on the CPU end of things) at low settings the game is freezing for several seconds on a regular basis and game textures (and on one occasion the contents and enemies of a whole room) can take anything from 4 to 10+ seconds to render properly which is telling me that either the minimum requirements are complete garbage or the anti tamper software is causing more harm then good.

And before anyone asks

I had this issue - [email protected] with 8GB on a 980 and it's just freeze every 10-15 seconds for 1-2 seconds, it was unplayable, even with everything on the lowest settings.

Swapped out for a 3700X on 16GB, same GFX card and everything on medium is 60FPS with no hitches, so the CPU requirements are higher than they say (which is a 2500k@Stock)

@demonix, probably a silly question, but I assume you're running it from an ssd? Loading and playing Division 1 from a mechanical hd was a real pain on my old pc (i7 920) before switching to an ssd, so it's likely even worse with Division 2.

Both D1 and D2, from an ssd, played fine with an i7 920 and r9 280, albeit with lower graphics settings.

So they are going on about an infinite progression system thats not actually infinite at all lol.


"The Core Attribute categories upgrades are finite.Once maxed out,the SHD level points can be spent into the fifth,scavenging category-yielding credits and crafting materials."

So basically a short term endgame just like every other divisions and divisions 2 so called endgame.

Yes. You will need to go up through the World Tiers to reach Level 30 - gear score 500 anyway. As the gear score cap is being increased to 515 with WONY you will be much better placed to cope with WT5 and beyond if you are already at GS500. They arent removing peoples WT level or level on release of WONY, just increasing the cap level.

Enjoy the Black Tusk missions and level up whilst you wait for TU8 to drop

Hello Agents, what does the bar shown represent?

think it's special ammo for your specialisation and the bar fills up as you kill enemies. Once the bar fills up completely you get an extra 1 or 2 ammo to pick up and the bar resets again.
Ah thanks, makes sense as it only appeared after hitting WT1.
So hard to enjoy this game vs Division 1, it just feels meh, skills feel meh (wth is the new pulse....), missions are all meh, and the peak-a-boo with the enemies is infuriating.

Anyway, maybe the story to get level 30 was the only boring part, and the game opens up now. Just started WT1 only took me a year.

Some of you Agents will remember the mission in the Division 1, the one where you went down a sewer pipe, dodged the shot gunners, ran past the drones, I forget the missions name, anyway, it was super fun and you could play it for hours.
We have some cool and fun repeatable missions in D2 right? :(

Just finished up episode 3, quite enjoyed that mission and sets you up for the expansion. Really looking forward to it.

Will bring me back to the game :)

I also loved grinding Lexington Event Center (think it was called that) on challenging for the Show Stopper Shotgun.

I don't think D2 have got a mission that I enjoy grinding but some of them are pretty good.
