*** The Division Thread 2.0 ***

Anyone getting massive server lag? was playing an HVT and bullets not hitting at all and enemies not moving! Tried logout and exiting the game tried an HVT bullets were mainly hitting but thought my gun isnt hitting very hard relised all my guns and gear all mods have been removed! So i have to go through them all again to find out what mods and attachments i had im really ****ed
 
Well I read up on this and this was a bug that was meant to been fixed a few patches ago! I've tried logging out and exiting as i thought the saves were cloud but didn't help.
So on the off chance I tried a system restore as the saves could have been saved locally but no that didn't help so now I have the task of finding which mods went where.
 
It happened to me once before and it was when I was replacing a few whilst server lag was happening to me.

It isn't anything to do with saves as the placement of all that is server side.

|OK thanks for confirming, i have all ,my mods looks like i goota resort them all out.
 

Lots have moved on now and Massive really have ****ed it up (esp DZ). Not sure they're gonna be able to fix even a small portion of the issues right now, never mind all the bugs!!!

Just incredibly frustrating at times :(

On the plus side, the crazies have probably moved on so no more death threats for them!!! :D
 
I still play the game and did notice this thread has suddenly died with no one posting under it.

im on most nights, see jedi on sometimes as well.

yeah i mean my play frequency hasnt really changed, but then i never really used to play during the week anyway so maybe ive not gotten completely bored yet.

"interesting news next week" sounds, err, interesting.

i honestly doubt they'll be able to change/ fix everything that is required.

They know the god roll M870s that can one shot are annoying
They know about how prevalent sentrys / reclaimer is in the dark zone
They know NPC health scaling is wrong
They know that the loot can feel not rewarding due to receiving so much trash tier loot
They know its not right that you shouldn't already have the reward tier of loot in order to obtain said tier of loot, despite this being a mechanic since Day 1.
They know that they promised an open world game and delivered us nothing but a mission repeat grind.

Then we go onto other things

They nerfed crafting into the point of it being useless
Which in turns negates all the processes around it, eg collecting materials, farming missions for loot to dismantle
The vendors become pointless once you reach end game as none of them have anything worthwhile
This in turn makes phoenix credits and DZ credits pretty much pointless
The gearscore system is used only to discriminate against other players and provides no use
The perks on some things are so strong that everything else becomes useless. Who wants knee pads that triple XP earned from accolades when you can have a sentry / reclaimer / tactician piece.
Who wants a gun that removes a status effect when you kill somebody when you can have 25 % more headshot damage ?
The amount of variance in the loot is off. Why should it be possible to get 268 items with values only barely above Good 214 rolls, a whole 2 Gear Score jump.

The list of things goes on and on. And none of them are actual bugs. There are plenty of those too. This is just some of the balance / design choices theyve got wrong.

I honestly don't think they can change it all as they won't have the full team of developers working on this after this much time. They'll have moved on and only the live team will be working on this. I don't know how big the team is, but can they correct all this ? I highly doubt it Its been said so much in this thread but I'll say it again. They go so much right in the early stages of the game. That rank up from 1 to 30 felt awesome. But end game got it all so wrong. Scrap it. Start again.

Roll on division 2.

Im still on each night for a game or two, but have been playing GTAV and the witcher 3 for a few days as well.

Mainly because I have a sentry/deadeye/alphabridge/tactician/reclaimer which are all good and reasonably optimised (minus sentry but it still hits hard) so cba farming for more of the same stuff - no need.

I started doing more PVP as well, but then the DZ turned into an annoyance with cheaters so that is out the window for the time being.

Im bored as I cant progress anymore basically.
 
I think the biggest problem with the game is that its not the open world game they promised. Once you've collected all the loot, what do you do with it ?? Run the same missions again and again ?

The only reason anybody grinds unfun content is to get the loot. Once you've got it people stop playing.

Destiny realized this and the Taken King year 2 stuff addressed this. Lots more quests, lots more events and stuff to do. Massive built an amazing open world, but gave you nothing to do in it at end game.

you'd like to think they could pull some resource from Ubi themselves but probably not. if they can sort the balancing i think it'll get a second wind.

lets see what next weeks news is..

Nah, I'd be surprised if they had more than 4 or 5 people working on it now tbh :p

I'm just gonna get my ass to UG Lvl40 so I can wear the cool BLIND **** and I'm done til Survivor comes out :D
 
I wonder what the concensus would be if they annoucned next week that Vivendi will be taking over sooner than expected and in order to "give players the best possible experience", they will be expanding their purchasable items to include gear-sets, weapons and crafting resources....

Not sure who will trust they money to Massive,like you purchase what you want,but where you going to use it?
 
Some interesting stats in the SOTG.

1% of active players who have the Underground have reached Level 40. Of the remainder, 25% are between level 7 and 13, and 25% between 1 and 7. Indicates a lot of people tried it but when the XP requirement go too much, they gave up.

Quite a sombre SOTG, they seem to know what is wrong but can they fix it?

I logged on the 15th to get the free items... nothing I received advanced my character. Logged out, will try again on the 1st.

Cheers
