It's O.K so far, typical Ubisoft open world side mission-a-thon.

>>162941434
The only problem I've had with the game so far is that the bosses have a shit ton of health. Also, no one plays it.

any way to buy just the survival mode without the base game?

the rest of it looks like shit but the survival mode seems really good

It's like I am playing destiny, but without the fun. This game really needs a faster way of getting around between fights like a skateboard or something.

>>162947856
No.

>>162947332
Your build is wrong. They are bullet sponges but not THAT bullet sponges

>>162950268
That is true for LZ and several missions but everything else is really packed if you ask me.

tfw shotguns are only viable because of status effect magic

Can I change my face or remove my glasses?

>>162972456
no and no

was playing the game and enjoying it pretty well, but then I got to the level 7 mission. I was 6.8 and figured I could probably do it, so I went in.

Died within 20 seconds of entering combat.

Respawned, tried it again with a different and more tactful approach... annnd there's now twice as many flamethrower dudes circling around me.

On top of that, I'm landing headshots for 1400+ damage which do less than 1/5th of an enemy's HP. Just standard dudes, not even the purple/yellow health bar guys. But one single hit on me from anything would deal a little bit more than 1/3 my hp.

I was seriously considering buying the game until then. Even the Gold version to get all the DLC. Maybe I needed to grind to level 7 first, maybe I needed all level 6-7 gear, maybe I should be using consumables more often (honestly still no idea how to quickly use stuff like water / candy and havent memorized their effects), but I don't feel the motivation to play again now. The swarming AI just can't be countered in a reasonable way when you don't have access to perks and enemies are way too fucking spongey.

Should I pull the trigger? I mean it's not much to buy just the base game without the DLC right?

When should I be going into the dark zone? Should I level to 30 first? Or should I take a little trip there before?

>>162979265
You're an absolute madman, anon. Don't do it. Buy Deathwing instead.

>>162981236
but... but survival looks kinda cool... right? right?

>>162982274
Just stop. Whatever enjoyment you think you can get out of this game you won't. It's dead. It wasn't very good to start, but the lack of significant updates, or more importantly any QoL changes has killed what tiny community that it actually had.

Now I'm going to bed. If I wake up tomorrow and find out you purchased this game I think you might just ruin my breakfast.

if you go into the game realizing that its not dayz in new york, but borderlands in new york, you will have fun. i put a bit over 100 hours into it solo without forcing myself to play, and the underground dlc is a pretty good addition.

>>162977039

if you aren't 1-2 shotting red mobs of your level then something is wrong with your gear. even at endgame red mobs die in one hit to sniper rifles and shotguns.

>>162982274
Stop this.

Nothing is wrong with the game right now. Leveling is quite fun. Survival DLC is also top fun. There aren't many things to do endgame, that part is true but if you can get 3 other people you can try heroic incursions and do Survival all day

>>162985670
Game itself is more like Borderlands yea but Survival DLC is not only like DayZ but also better.

The game mode is better than any survival/battle royale game out there

What's the character customization like?

>>162989063
It is currently beyond shit. There are like 5-6 faces.

They made a Survey some time ago and it had some questions regarding the customization options so im guessing they may have make ore customizatios choices in the future but for now you pick a face and you are stuck with it.

You can customize clothing tho, there are many jackets, pants, shirts etc.

I'm liking so far the free weekend, if I want to buy the game, I'm good with only the base game or do I need the DLCs aswell? they seem pretty expensive

>>162989609
tl:dr is the season pas worth it ?

>>162986667
>purple and yellow enemies take almost no damage, but almost insta-KO
Git gud
or stack enemy armour damage + damage to elites, you scrub

>>162989609
Just play the game and you'll after a while figure out yourself whether you think it's worth it or not.

>>162989609
>>162989694
Base game is cool and leveling is fun but after you hit 30 there aren't many things to do.

Underground doesnt add much to the game except endless farming grounds so it doesnt worth much and it's not a "must have" DLC but makes farming really easy and fast, also has a cool clothing set.

Survival adds a new game mode and it is very much fun and definitely worth it and there is nothing much to say about it except that it's awesome.

Last Stand (which is the last DLC) supposed to be a wave shooter/base defending game mode (at least that's what they said in their year 1 video) and I'm not sure if they are still going with it. It sounds like another incursion with the waves (and people dont like that very much) and we don't need one more of the same thing but Massive looks like they are learning from their mistakes and trying to do the right thing so i'm kinda hopeful that it won't suck.

tl;dr, Get Gold Edition for Survival

WTF is Hudson Refugee Camp, this mission..

There's this window that it's funneling the players, and there are flamethrowers below the drop; and the main mob is superdouche.

>>162990204
>Underground
The main feature of underground is that it generates levels from chunks, so in theory it's a different map each run. In practice, there aren't enough chunks to make it interesting and you end up feeling like you are grinding the same levels over and over anyway.

>>162990276
Yea, i don't know how the level designers looked at it and said "yea that's good"

It was hard finishing it after launch (gear farming was beyond shit and until you got good gear you basically couldn't do the mission on hard)

But now its balanced.

at least you don't get rushed by 5 yellow flamethrowers that down you in miliseconds

How are you supposed to start missions in multiplayer? I keep joining groups trying to do missions in hard but nobody knows how to start it

>>162990465
Yea, but it's better than running the same missions for loot.

The game is about farming anyway, UG only adds one more option that you can farm. No matter what you do, you WILL farm the same places over and over again after a while.

It's a weak DLC but not THAT bad.

Until the next mission.

>>162991356
It does not.

It's not the game, it's you.

>>162985670
Speaking of DLC, when does the survival and such become relevant? Do I have to be 30? Does it give you decent rewards?

Im level 8, so far I like it. Although the huge, and very detailed map feels like it was a waste on this game as opposed to something more Sim-ey

>>162994846

im not sure what survival gives you aside from fun maybe. i only bought the underground dlc, which is just a dungeon generator.

Is this game online only? if yes are they planning to make it playable offline?
It seems the kind of game they are going to shut the servers down in less than a couple of years

How important is armor? I have been ignoring skill power completely in favour of DPS and HP, which is pretty straight forward I think but there is NO indication on how good any armor is and some high DPS items are pretty low in armor.

>>163000267

i wouldn't worry about armor till endgame, and even then im not sure if its worth it.

its sorta like warframe where high level enemies do such ludicrous damage to where armor barely does anything.

stamina is the same way, only buff stamina if its to meet the requirements for a gun perk.

Survival adds a mode and its called: Survival

To do this mode you need to be level 30.

The story is that an intel was discovered about some experimental antivirals inside the DZ, since DZ is contaminated and for plot purposes you leave all your gear and wear nothing but a hazard suit. You get on the heli and because of the Blizzard, it crashes. You get wounded during the crash and have about 1 hour before you go into septic shock and die. Your mission is to scavenge and survive against the cold, enemies and sometimes other players (gamemodes has a PVE and PVP mode)

After you scavenge soem gear and get into the DZ you get the antivirals (which they aren't actually antivirals but they are division tech that you use to make a flare gun (i know it doesnt make any sense but it shouldnt anyway) and then you call in an extraction. When you call in an extraction, a new Faction called the Hunters arrive. They are basically AI controlled palyers. They have the same skills you can use, and they move like players. They can also heal themselves, hack your turrets, seeker mines etc. After you defeat them you get in to the chopper and game mode ends.

Usually lasts about an hour or two if you don't want to rush it. There are even people that finished it under 30 minutes.

The loot you get from it is based on the score you got such as the enemies you killed, objectives finished, materials scavenged etc. (if you have failed to extract you can still get caches) You can also extract 6 caches from DZ with you so you can get about 10~ caches with every session

So you still get loot when you play this mode and it is fun. It became relevant because everyone liked the mode. It's the perfect Battle Royale/survival game

>>163000267

A lot. Almost every build stacks as much armor as you can get but only in endgame. No need to try to get armor during leveling.

>>163001141
if you stack armor it helps you against bosses. Not sure how Warframe works, but armor is important and you can feel the difference between high armor and low armor in Division

>>163002784
Weapon damage is kinda like that in early levels. Just try to get a better weapon. You can buy them easily if you sell every drop that you dont use but i advise you to deconstruct them instead of selling. You'll need them in level 30. not for crafting weapons or armor but for craftin weapon mods and re-rolling stats

>>163004447
You can reload your gun while sprinting. It wouldn't make sense if you could reload while rolling.

Convince me to buy this game instead of something else

Are weapon skins one time use only or can I reuse them on every weapon?

>>163010616
Shield.

>>163010362
Eh, if you need convincing, don't buy it.

Do buy it if you like shooters, loot grinding, borderlands, Toom Clancy games etc.

The game is literally Borderlands had a child with Tom Clancy or Destiny for PC less sci-fi

>>163010367
They are like jackets or pants. Think like as unlocks rather than collectible items. Once you unlock them you can put them on as many weapons as you want.

>>163010616
Fire turret for disabling enemies.
Revive-medbox for having another chance if you get downed
Pulse for damage/map awareness
Cluster Seeker mines for damage (fire seeker for disabling also but turret is better for this)

You are right. I wasn't expecting Sims or anything but it would be nice if they added 10 faces instead of 5 and the ability to change accessories like sunglasses etc.

But gameplay was dissapointing too and they fixed it, so they will probably fix that too in the future, who knows...

Alright I have to admit, shooing your cover to shit is pretty cool actually. I also like how the snow rests on your characters helmet and jacket.

>>163015269

its a shame that AI isn't effected by the whiteout snow effects.

>>163015269

You can actually shoot holes through some cover, and actually hit shit on the other side rather than it just be a cosmetic effect.

>>163014236
borderlands' movement/combat system is way more enjoyable

>>163016041
I agree I guess, but the novelty of this + the feeling of 'permanence' and difference is making me play this instead of that.

>>163032923

pvp in this game is incredibly cheesy. lots of groups trying to trick you into aggressing so they can kill you for your purplebux and loot.

I want to like this game but it seems to be trying to melt my CPU regardless of what settings I'm using.

Is this game worth it? im kinda having fun during the free weekend, im thinking of getting it.

>>163037314
Short answer; yes.

Long answer; Well pretty much just read other posts and maybe old threads.

Not only do you not hit anything unless it's right the fuck in front of you, they will also fucking zero in on your arm like they trained for arm sniping their whole life. what the fuck.

Grenades.
Place a turret.
Move to different cover.

Lowering your weapons threat with a suppressor will usually make the enemies focus on the turret and not you allowing you to move to a different cover spot.

>>163040314
>grenade
I tried that in a few places, they seem to mostly take a tiny bit of damage and keep sitting in their spaces

Currently level 15. The leveling is pretty constant. Just do everything in a zone, upgrade often and move on.

>>163040704
Around 15 was the point when I stopped doing everything and focused on the side missions and the main missions only. fuck encounters.

>>163040594
Fair point.
You could also try shield rushing if you had a good pistol or the armor set that allows you to use a SMG with your shield.

Hows the dark zone?, do people actively try to merc you or is it kind of a to each their own.

>>163040594

Suppress.

Try blind-shooting. You will still get shot but if you shoot at him and shoot his cover when he is behind it, you'll suppress them and they will stay in cover for ashort amount of time. You can flank or move to a better cover during it.

>>163040801
Encounters can be frustrating but they are fast, and you need to do them in order to unlock you skills, talents, perks.

Good thing is, you don't need to do 100% of them to unlock everything.

Bad thing is, you still need to do a lot of them.

>>163034269
I'm at my wit's end here. I genuinely like the game, but these temperatures are terrifying and isolated to this game. I can't manage to isolate whatever is jacking up the CPU.

Anyone have any experience with this?

>>163040907
can't say much about the dark zone. I just went in there with level 18 because my main weapon was pretty shit and I figured DZ would be a relatively easy place to get some upgrades (it was, got a nice AK out of it)
I was in there for probably less than 10minutes and I didn't see a single other person in my corner of DZ1

>>163041265
>need to do them to unlock skills
nah not really.. you need a couple to unlock everything, but with 2 medic missions left I discovered that both give 500 medic resources and I already had everything except the 1k upgrade unlocked, so I decided to say fuck you to encounters and focus on going trough the zones instead.

>>163041467
Things change at level 30. If you want to do "PVE" DZ, d it while you still have time.

DZ is filled with ganksquads.

Also, i said you still need to do a lot of them, not you need to do all of them.

missions give supplies only once

>Things change at level 30. If you want to do "PVE" DZ, d it while you still have time.

Say more. Tell me about the Dark zone.

>>163042509
Most people skip DZ during leveling because its not efficient to level or to get items.

So DZ under level 30 is almost empty.

top level DZ is filled with min/max geared ganksquad (a group of 4 people. They don't have perfect gear all the time, but they can still ruin your fun)

I know people have already asked this, especially because of the free weekend, but it's the game worth to buy? I like it so far but I'd like to know if everything in the game is soloable or you need people to complete certain mandatory content, and I heard that the game is dying
optionally does anyone know a similiar singleplayer game with guns customization that isn't borderlands? Might aswell reinstall Rainbow six vegas 2 tho

>>163079230
I guess that's a plus I hadn't thought of.

>>163078394
Cant get a proper answer any either lol so im guessing it really dies after 30

>>163079636
If you're looking through the actual scope, that's as far as you can zoom.

If all you get is a red dot, you're using something like an ACOG or Holo sight.

I also recommend rebinding that to something like middle mouse.

>>163079698
It's 'Diablo with Guns' if that sounds nice to you. Most of the content can be done solo. I've even seen videos of people doing Incursions (the missions that are difficult even with 4 people) solo, but it seems impractical.

The game was pretty much dead a few months ago, but the newer patches and DLC along with this free weekend have seen the numbers rise a shitload. I dropped it at launch myself and only recently came back. I have something like 200 hours in it so far.

>>163078394
>>163075139
Game actually becomes more active after level 30.

Even when the game was dead, you could still find players.

Don't worry about it.

Is there any way to change your in-game name? I connected to uPlay with my old account, but it's a name I haven't used in years. I changed it on uPlay, but it stuck on The Division.

Nevermind, looks like it finally updated in game too.

I'm playing the free weekend and tried the dark zone for the first time since the beta but I couldn't extract gear
I noticed there was something bound to z but when I pressed it I was considered rogue, someone killed me, they became rogue and were pleading for several seconds before everyone else decided to kill them

my question is: why was extraction greyed out?

I think there's a limited number of people who can drop and I guess I was too late, found someone to play with and we did pretty well, we were found out at the very end of our rogue period after we killed three people at the extraction
I learned I went rogue the first time because I tried to hijack it, an accident but it still got me killed

the dark zone is pretty fun, reminds me of the wilderness in runescape

Do you need a good ping to play "solo"? Am I alone in a distant instance or alone on an instance hosted by my computer when I go out a hub?

how do I fix the game turning to shit when I alt tab? fixes itself when I tab back in, but that limited background processing makes it less viable to alt tab while shit is loading

>>163091660

its always online but locally hosted matches. so you won't get any lag.

>>163092572
Borderless window

>>163094045
doing that and it's not fixing it
the fps gets capped to like 30 any time I alt tab and processing focu seems to drop too

Will this game get any cheaper during steam winter sale or should I pick it up now?

>>163095040
Probably the cheapest you can get is 50% sale

I don't think it'll get cheaper during winter sales.

So, when are you supposed to start doing hard missions? I'm level 9 and I can't complete them both solo and on group

>>163101392

what guns are you using

if you have pulse, use it with your smg. it should be able to melt most enemies.

>>163102517
with tactical scanner mod I presume?
should unlock it soon enough

>>163102752

every version of pulse gives crit chance and crit dmg, i prefer the scout pulse because of the short recharge time. i think they nerfed crits since the last time i played because tac scanner used to be fucking amazing.

So I just hit level 30, what do I do now, spam missions? and how do I know which missions are the daily missions?

>>163101392
Doing Hard missions dont give you any advantage when you are leveling. Just do them for supplies and exp. Start doing hard missions when you are 30with at least purple gear

worst set or worst set

are electronics builds worth anything? they only seem to get good returns on damaging skills and with the long cooldowns it doesn't seem that great

>>163104526
>he doesn't know

I can't say its the best meta build but i can say that its a fucking great set if you know what you're doing

>>163104652

imo the best build for damage/utility is to raise both firepower and electronics equally, then raise stamina as needed for gun perks.

>>163104924

the turret thing is cool but i don't feel like 15% extra damage is worth 4 pieces of gear.

>>163104934
alright, I'm about that currently
a bit weighted towards tech because I'm enjoying the seekers

>current smg has brutal (+headshot damage)
>current marksman has fierce (+crit chance)
just fuck me up

>>163105198
It is a lot if you use the correct weapons/talents/skills

Urban MDR (which is a named weapon that can drop from Survival Caches) also has a10% damage buff to enemies under status effects

Also Relentless backpack heals you whenever you damage an enemy with a skill

>>163105261

at later levels you start to find a lot of abilities get diminishing returns for stacking electronics. Healing abilities and the riot shield benefit quite well tho

I'm at level 7, want to buy the Gold edition. Anyone in this thread just playing for the pve stuff? Because the most fun i've had in a while was playing this shit with others, aside from the rage quitters. Also does the survival have pve or is it just another koth?

>>163025003
If you like damaging enemies for 30 seconds before they die then yes

>>163107106
survival is both pve and pvp
if you go in with other players you have to share supplies

>>163107106
Discord people does PVE together most of the times. PVP is kinda broken so not everyone wants to do DZ.

PVP survival is kind of un-fun and full of salt so i try to stay away from it. when you die in DZ you lose maybe 10 minutes of progress, when you die in PVP survival that's somewhere between 10 to an hour of progress.

you can also die in PVE too its against the AI so if you die the only reason you died is yourself

I played like 15 minutes overdue and I could.

I Alt+F4'd out of respect.

20 hours in so far and I feel like the game really hooked me. Its dead outside of the free weekend though, right? Shiet

>option to strip weapon randomly disappears
>wont let me detach mods manually either

im not sure what this bug is but it wasn't here during launch.

>>163066247
Fuck off - I do only PvE and the majority of my game time has been put into the DZ. Just be aware of where the rogues are and you can easily avoid them.

>>163115227
I had a lot of fun but It's not really worth 25 dollars to me
also, like you said, ded

The massive attention detail in literally everything gets me hard but it's all very empty sadly

>>163115227
I never have problems finding new people to play with - every time I play my friends list gets added to. Been playing since beta, if that helps. Game doesn't seem dead to me.

>>163116718
You just add other people? I guess I could start doing that. But throurought the 20 hours only one person added me.

Are you talking about level 30? I imagine the life of the game is at that point.

>>163117401
Yeah, post-30. People usually end up adding me, I don't add people first most the time.

how grindy is the endgame in this? i havent played in forever, and i hate repeating the same shit for loot

>>163119456
its as grindy as any other loot shooter. You can still get good items pretty quick but you also still have enough room for an upgrade so you have things to do

how did i do for 1 weekend
please respond

What're the best perks/builds these days?

LIVE

One of my housemates convinced me to get this on the sale price.

He won a season pass from Reddit so I got all the DLC content for free off him

I'm enjoying it so far though, since I bought it and I'm lvl 20 I guess I'm here to stay?

Is there any point in playing with others before lvl30?

>>163041378
1st Gen i7 here (i7-860), old CPU from 2009 and a GTX 970.

The game seems to run fine at high-ultra settings, but if I kick it up a notch (for example go all out Ultra preset) I experience 100% CPU usage and actual audio stuttering, surprised it doesn't overheat. I'm guessing it's one or very few settings there that ravage your CPU, because when I turned it down just a bit I manage around 50-60% CPU usage on near ultra on this now ancient CPU. Who knows.

>>163154272
Your build is shit and wrong but doing all that in 3 days is kinda impressive.

also bonus points for using G36-C

>>163165460

If you get downed they can revive you so you dont have to respawn at the nearst safe house and walk down there again.

Do I dismantle this shit or sell it?

>>163174116

wow look at this tacticalfag with his helmet and tight pants

also it doesn't really matter, you really should ditch all your gear as you progress to 256 gear

>>163174249
Hey! Being tacticool is important to me!
and yeah, I do plan on ditching all this shit for the higher tier stuff, but I don't know if I should sell the shit I have surplus to buy caches at the vendor or maybe weapons at the specialized weapons vendor or if I should dismantle them and try to craft stuff later in the game with it.

>>163174116
after you get like 300~ of each HE material sell HE and set gear and HE weapons, dismantle everything else (low quality items, items that are not 256 level, mods etc. )

yea it sucks man. Sometimes those stuck enemies die if you wait for a bit. I guess they are aware of enemies being stuck in unreachable areas so they die after a while.

Why are there so many Chinese playing this game? Every zone has Chinese spamming chat.

>>163178398
>not turning off area chat

baka

>>163178003
I'm considering switching it out for my turret. But maybe I go back to just healing skills, because since I got the higher item level gear pieces, my ability power is quite low. (the gearing up part is kinda shitty, you can't go for your favourite stat or weapon, you HAVE to equip the highest item level in each slot even if you might end up with worse stats)

>>163178398
Not just chinese there's a good number of people just going "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" in chat for no fucking reason.

>>163178803
If you have a decent skill power and a relentless backpack, you dont need healing skills.

If you dont however, dont try to base your build around it. It's good but not THAT good

>>163178803
>you HAVE to
What. So if I have a lvl4 green with big numbers, it's still worse than a lvl5 one with smaller numbers?

>>163179883
just under par

>>163179883
you need to hit an average item level to get up a tier. for instace on tier 3 you will get 204 gear at the highest. You need to equip a 204 item in every slot to unlock tier 4 and then it goes on like that. once in tier 5 you can back to concentrating on the stats you want.

>>163180856
I'm lvl 10, does that all matter to me?
Also are weapon skins transferable like other weapon mods?

>>163181446
No that will matter to you at level 30. Right now I recommend you take whatever has the stats you like best. personally around level 20 I focused a bit more on HP because enemies start to seriously hurt soon after that.
and yeah once you have a weapon skin it's always there. they're more like unlockables. you don't even have to take them off.

Missed the free weekend. 40 Minutes left on the sale.

How is this game? Need something to waste my time with over Christmas break since Deathwing is hit or miss.

Do I need the season pass to get the most of it?

>>163182630

the base game will get you at least 100 hours without trying to hard to stretch it out.

>>163182630

Didn't like Borderlands, liking this one though. Probably the setting.

>>163182934
Bullet sponge thugs and shotguns with 6x zoom scopes?

>>163182992
Yes. And probably, I don't touch shotguns because they seem ineffective on any target more than 5 meters away.
And for the other weapons, damage is inversely proportional to rate of fire...

>>163182630
It's cheaper to get the Gold edition with the sale, so get that.

a majority of my time was spent solo, the game feels too mindless with a group imo

they really fucked mobile cover with these placement requirements, feels like a really heavy handed attempt at fixing the vault through walls glitch.

Just how good of a computer do you need to run this? I see people saying they have average PCs and it runs fine while others with really good PCs complaining about performance issues.

I used the 100u points 20% discount on the Gold edition which was already on sale.

Bought it for £26 which is about $32, that's a pretty solid price for Gold right?

>>163195654

assuming it doesn't go for half off in the next few days during a christmas sale

>>163190317
>others with really good PCs complaining about performance issues.

Should run fine with a GTX 750 Ti.

Game is fun. How often does content roll out? I want more story missions. Only took a little over 2 days to hit 30 and the last side mission explaining the virus left me craving more story. They'll add stuff right?
