*** The Division Thread 2.0 ***

@Rroff its maybe not headshots but idiots not knowing how the mode works at all. We saw this when outbreak first appeared, people had no clue what to do in MM, or simply didn't bother to read.

Pistol only DN with one shot kills is so satisfying though, especially on the 4HM haha :D

I never bothered to farm lexi or Hudson, or farm solo. Was boring to me. I always preferred to run clear sky and times square legendary as a group to see how quick we could do it. Was much more fun! Just under 4 mins was our quickest for CS, so can imagine how its a solid farm with a few times square 10 minute runs and random LZ bosses in between.

There are some who don't seem to be able to figure it out but I don't think that is the problem. I wonder if a lot are playing on controller on PC or something as some seem to really struggle to make headshots. Did Napalm earlier and it was me and another guy just cueing up the headshots while the other 2 on our team were pretty ineffective :( to be fair I had my own moments of fail as well but I was at least trying heh and it was mostly due to running into moments where skill cooldowns were randomly delayed longer than they should be, etc. getting me killed.

CS with the full modifier for outbreak would be a bit of a nightmare with the proximity unless you had a whole team that were consistently headshotting heh - I'm not even going to attempt it with randoms - in the ambush GE we were completing it in around 3 minutes with me using a loadout that could get tactical link back reasonably quickly.

None of the GE's current have the modifiers for CS. The only thing that applies is the vanilla modifier that gives the increased headshot damage. That's why its so quick, the added benefit with no hinderence to the player.

3 minutes? Quicker than the current record of 3:27. Must have been a good team.

Forgot that modifier wasn't on this GE for CS.

I think one of the guys was maybe cheating (probably the AB exploit to stack weapon talents) - he had insane damage output even for striker + big al setup he was using.

If you do it the technique we were though it goes really fast - the longest bit really is running between the first bit and second heh. Basically on second bit 3 went one way, 1 one the other to get the fuses, hit the ADS and then 3 run to the crater to take out the boss as he dropped with his back to us while the other started mopping up the rest of the NPCs done and dusted in no time at all if everything went to plan and a bit of luck.

EDIT: Was around 3 minutes I dunno exactly what - it was less than 4 minutes and not less than 3 minutes.

So any word on some more content for this game yet?

Central park happening or not?

Nothing official - they seem quite vague.

Kind of sucks as a bit of PVE expansion just using what is there already would go a long way. Would be nice if they have a later expansion of Central park or whatever if they started a transition into it with some new stuff in the current area that lead upto it as well rather than just breaking straight into it like happened with WSP - which could also make for a staggered ramp up and not require releasing the entire lot in one go giving them more time to perfect it.
 
Having such a good time with this game at the moment. Did Falcon Lost on Heroic with @nlyh and a couple of other OcUK members from the Discord last night as well as a couple of Legendary missions, so different from anything I've done in the game up until that point but where the game really comes into its own imo. I'm way behind them in terms of skill and gear level so didn't feel I was contributing all that much, but it was still great fun. And thank you again for letting me tag along and also sharing the drops, really appreciate it as I managed to finish a set and get my GS up about 30 points (sitting around 255 now)

Yeah that's the best strat, 3 right, 1 left. The first part can be manipulated quite easily with flash stickies etc to stop some of the mobs coming out, as well as the last part with the big dudes on the bus to make it even quicker lol!! Such a fun mission when it goes well due to the speed and aggressiveness. Same for times square legendary, can properly face tank speed run it now, so fun.

After many thousands of hours in this game, I have had my moneys worth, would love a div 2 or another update
 
It is a funny one - when luck is on your side and you have a team that sticks to the plan it goes so quick and easy - with randoms 9 times out of 10 it turns into a slog of fail and is frustrating.

LOL Too true! Has been a while since I ran an mm incursion, I'm too impatient :D

No worries,no worries and you were ok. We were doing things quite quickly as we'd done them a hundred times before so apologies if we weren't explaining things properly!
 
I am looking for a game to play again as D3 S13 is no different from S12 atm.

The last time I played this was when 1.5 came out.

What would be the best thing to do? tempted to install and give it another try over the weekend
 
I'm not really feeling this GE :( partly I think because I'm having a lot of issues where skills are randomly just not working for like 30-40 seconds beyond when they should be available or even when they've not even been used for a long time - the icon is clear again as if the cool down is complete (and should be for the time elapsed) but either nothing happens at all icon doesn't even flash, etc. or the player goes through the animation of deploying but just resets same with med kit lots of random delay compounded by the change where you have to come out of ADS.

EDIT: Just had a horrid run on CS - laggy as **** with damage coming and outgoing in waves, skills taking twice as long to cool down as they should, etc. etc. :( did manage to complete it though after one wipe.

Hey Guys, had a fair bash at this current GE, quick question....I have all i need from this GE with regards to gear, and have 15 or so un-opened caches and some spare credits.

I'm pretty sure the credits roll over, but do the caches roll over to the next event, and will they open the new events gear, or the currents events gear that i bought them in? ... want to hold on to them if they do as im missing one piece of Strikers that starts next week :)

Caches will only hold gear from the event they were purchased in, so no real benefit in holding onto them.
