*** The Division Thread 2.0 ***

I really am super impressed with this patch and dx 12 for performance, didn't see my FPS drop below 50 at all tonight, was mostly between 55-60FPS the entire time where as with dx 11, I would regularly be dropping to 40's and hardly ever holding a constant 60 (unless inside) and this was with considerably lower settings too.

Now massive just need to sort out the absolute dog **** drops/RNG and I can see myself putting a lot more time into the game...

Got to hand it to ubi/massive though, despite low player numbers, they are certainly dedicated to this game and improving it as much as possible. They have put on a better show than most other publisher/developer studios this year!

I don't think players are going to come back in big numbers now, they've pretty much shot their load with the rebalancing and that hasn't really worked. Hopefully they'll push on, but I can't see the big investment being put into this game with the low numbers they're getting at present.

Damn shame really, this IP had sooooooo much potential!!

Yeah they definetly won't be putting as much time and money into it now but considering the low figures, the amount of effort they are still putting in is impressive, most game publishers and developers would have abandoned this ages ago aside for the new dlc content and only 'neccesary' fixes.

The only way they will get a **** load of players back is to release some really epic dlc/missions around central park.

Did you alt-tab out 1st? this has been broken for a while even in dx11/win7, works fine if you dont alt-tab, but just do it once & you cant use uplay in game after unless you restart the game.
 
All graphical options included in Album link. Overlay shows clock speeds, temps, CPU/GPU Usage for DX12 test on my rig.

DX12 does nothing for me unfortunately. Lower FPS and terrible colours because I cannot use my 3DLUT profile with SweetFX.

Its a shame really, as like you say the IP has enormous potential, they could have gone on to have a Division 2 or something...set in a different city, Los Angeles or Washington, something along those lines. They really could have made it into a fallout-esque style franchise in that way.
 
Did another survival tonight and exracted with max medkits, medicine, painkillers, food and drink to see how many points you get

Outcome is don't waste your time doing it - more score for having a higher thirs/hunger %.

Finally bothered to take screenshots of my builds so far. One is missing but it will be finished soon :)

Nice one man!! Using Preds with my AB setup til I can get a good AB Mask (so I can use my B Vest and Sav Gloves). I'll keep playing around though, seems like it'll be a pretty stellar combo!!!

I use a G36 with the Famas for mine, the only bad talent I have is Focussed but at least it's semi (barely!) usable unlike the other one which I couldn't unlock without Electronics :D Semi better than none I suppose! :D

Honestly those few times you come across someone who doesn't have armour rolled on everything they drop so fast it feels unfair :D Last night two rogues came up to hijack an extraction, the first didn't even get off the stairs, which then caused the second to rethink their actions and run away, who got an excellent nade from my friend and my gun for his troubles.

Focused is one of those odd ones - On the face of it you think "10% damage, great!", and then you remember how often at least one of your skills are on cool down. I'd definitely take Competent instead especially if you're running 2 faster skills like Booster shot and Pulse.

I would actually prefer to run Predatory instead of Brutal but alas same problem with electronics - It would have to replace either Uncomplicated or Competent and it's not better than either of those for group PVE or PVP. 100% my favorite talent for solo play though, it's got an almost 100% uptime when it matters.

Will post a new screenshot of my build once I've got a better Barretts - So maybe some point in 2017 :D

not sure but Passey mentioned a possible hack attempt. His account email had been changed by a Russian IP.

That's not good. I can choose my char but then get the Delta error C-0-1243 when connecting. I can't see any server issues on Uplay. Hopefully servers down and not something my end :)
 
has the pre load started already for this free weekend? If this is what is causing the issues then say goodbye to the weekend of playing lol
