Seems AMD Rewards are really screwing up with not giving people codes... Really hope I get mine on release day and there's no delay!

Same. Bought a R7 2700 early January and was told I'd get a code within two weeks. Two months on and still no sign of it despite chasing it up.

TD1 @ £7.50 is well worth it the campaign to level 30 is pretty decent though not everyone will love the end game content and at that price you probably don't get the extra stuff like incursions and underground, etc. which are some of the better experiences post level 30 for coop.

One downside for coop play through the main story though is that if you don't play together (i.e. if someone plays for a few hours while the other is at work, etc.) one person can easily outstrip the other making it a bit difficult to play together until you hit level 30 GS 256 without a bit of an impact on the experience.

Interesting, thanks. I've picked up TD1 Gold and it comes with the following content:

My Vega 56 came with a code for TD2 so I will redeem that and give it a play after we complete this.

Tempted to pick up The Division 1 as the gold edition is only £7.50. Once we complete this, I am hoping they will have ironed out any problems with #2.

Where abouts is it this price? I may have picked it up at that a week ago just for the sake of it

Not even a code to register it, then you get an actual game code nearer release?

Damn, fingers crossed you get something through soon!

I bought one of those bundle codes from the MM, like a pre code, dont have the actual code yet.

Same here, I just have the page where all 3 games just say "key will be here when available", including for RE2, which was released over a month ago!

The rate AMD are going then you'll be lucky to get it on the 15th!! I've given up and going for Gold via uPlay.

Today's SotG was *epic* :cool:

interesting read.
one thing to note from that is exotics, you can now only equip 1 exotic weapon and 1 exotic gear piece at a time
also says exotics now come from completing tasks, so hopefully not needing to farm them so much

Now that is probably the first thing that Ive found out that I really strongly dislike about Division 2. I utterly hated in Destiny when I could only equip one, was one of the things which made me stop playing it.

It would be like telling me in an MMO that I can only equip 1 of my epic purple drops. Really hate this idea, I spend hours and hours collecting high end gear and then I can only use one of them at a time anyway. Definitely not a fan of it. I hope it doesnt impact my desire to play in the same way it did Destiny.

yeah im not a fan of the idea either, although im sure there is a good reason behind it.. will have to wait and see how that turns out but its not something that would stop me from playing

also changed my mind about the weapon mods, i watched a vid with one of the devs explaining why they did it etc
i think it might have been on of the SoTG vids

Not at all a fan of that idea though so far looks like I won't be playing TD2 so I guess it doesn't matter.

I've mixed feelings over the mods as well - though it is still a bit of a work in progress in that respect and I believe they are going to tweak them again but the penalties seemed badly implemented to me though I'm not against judicious use of penalties on some mods.
