Survival is just another level of epic, such a great feeling. This is how the whole of the game should play not just DLC.

Yup survival is excellent.

I had some comparison pics showing it for light sources i.e. bulbs, it is just a white glow/bloom.
Apart from that, it was nice though.
seems okay here on a calibrated asus
might take it off for a bit and see if it helps.

Survival is gonna bring me back I think. Love the way it's more skill than gear based.

Wouldn't it be great if the whole DZ was survival mode. Mix in players and hunters, that would be epic.
I did survival tonight solo and managed to extract with a full bag!! (PVE Mode) 12 caches overall and 30 items came out as I was picking up survival caches or whatever they are called.
So epic, I loved survival in pts and it seems better now.
However, it seems it now scales with groups as I went in as a 3 man group and found elites and veterans much quicker - probably to counter groups splitting up to loot quicker tbh.
Survival isn't a time efficient loot, but its so fun! Will be trying PVP over the weekend for sure
I do wonder, there is a "1st" marker for extracting first so I wonder if they will it competitive. Like quickest to extract and so on:
Basic caches at every vendor that give either mods/weapons/HE/GS items as well as PC.
UG sells GS only caches for PC however so could do a rotation, buy a few of them then basic caches, replenish PC and repeat
Ditto. Bought near release, played it for about 12 hours but it never clicked. The news coverage of Patch 1.4 reminded me to try it and boy what a game. Up to about 82 hrs on UPlay (256GS/Lvl 18 in The Underground).
Although it has lots of faults there's certain aspects that I really like about this game.
Need to try Survival at some point. Noticed Servers are obviously busier. Disconnected in the Terminal, and had bad sound lag in the Underground.
Sounds awesome, excited to try it but I'm away with work until next week
Maybe not such a bad thing seeing all the reported patch issues....What CPU/GPU overlay is that Gamble?
Whats the long term plan for The Division? Survival is the penultimate expansion with one more expansion to be released in 2017 (Last Stand) , is that then the end and its onto The Division 2 , maybe set in another city? I havent played since before Underground came out, but reading good things about Survival is making me want to pick up Underground and Survival and take a look
There are rumours of 'Year 2' content, the current Season Pass was billed as Year 1 but nothing announced yet.
I think that would make sense as even if they are already working on a sequel which I expect they are it's going to be at least another year before that's ready.

Just went into Survival Solo, come out beating it after failing in a three man last night. Feels easier solo than it does in a group though as you have to mange loot with everyone.
It was quite enjoyable on PvP aswel surprisingly especially early on, as no one has skills at that point and it makes it more about skill than "I HAZ BETTER GEAR THAN U" I haven't felt that sort of nervousness ever since the early days of the DZ when the game first come out/alpha/beta.
Good expansion unlike the trash that was Underground, I was losing hope in the division, but i can see my self playing it again a few times a week with the lads for a good laugh.

What they should do it expand the area to include the rest of the island.
I only bought 2 caches which didn't produce anything but after 4 hours of running underground was kitted out with 256 gear. That included the Famas and a very nice G36.

Luckily survival resumes where you lefft off but only if you get disconnected via a mike/delta etc or alt f4.
And for the overlay - it is HWinfo64 with RTSS
That would be great but it be even better if the whole game was like that!
RNG really does hate me in this game
I just had a bit of your luck.... Rolled ~30 34 stam mods and not a single one with armour
