    TL;DR only good to play through once for easy campaign levels. **** game. Not worth $60 price tag.    … Expand

I know you might be thinking how could he judge the game based on the people who play it, well, this games focus is pushing you towards those interactions as much as it can. So yes, I can judge it that way. Again, the score would have been much higher were it not the players chasing people away with their S#&T behavior.… Expand

    Pros: I really do like the atmosphere, which is way better than the prequel, and the same goes for the story as well. The mechanics haven't really changed, so I didn't notice anything exceptionally great or terrible. It's fun to play with friends, just like The Division (1).
    Cons: Players need to face the same thing a load of Ubisoft games "feature", which is terrible optimalisation.

    Cons: Players need to face the same thing a load of Ubisoft games "feature", which is terrible optimalisation. This makes those insane graphics of trailers and gameplays appear only in the dreams of a load of us, as it requires massive hardware to run as expected. In most of the cases these frequent lags make the game unplayable or at leas unenjoyable.
    The way I see it: although there was great potential in this game, I don't believe Ubisoft has even tried to make the best out of it. It was one hell of a ride to cope with a load of lags and actually try having some fun. (i7-6900k/gtx1080/32gig/ssd)    … Expand

    It's a decent looter shooter, very generic story and repetitive missions (suppose that's expected from Ubi). But the gun-play/combat is where it's at; the various abilities to use are a lot of fun and the variety of weapons makes it worth a buy (When it's on sale). There's also quite a lot of bugs, albeit not game-breaking, they are still there. Imo not worth it at the full price.

    Its so bad that Massive can't make use of this great setting, they have created.

    Its always the same, even now with the "new" events: Finish this mission you already played at least 50 times again and get some checkpoints to unlock the manhunt. Seriously how lame is that?

    Ok since the game is only 3- 9 bucks worthy I guess they get a lot new players that really enjoy that. But for Players that spend more than 32 days into this game it sucks. Even the Polarity Mission is just boring. Maybe Day1, its was nice to have a new type of challenge but in the end its just shoot this many people in a special way.

    I really enjoyed hunting down Keener. But even is death is so meh. No one cares what happens after that. All we get is this endless grind to level 1000. And yeah I did that because I love grinding and did all kind of side activities like Territoriums, Target Practise, Rescue Hostage legid. And yeah its boring as hell even with friends.

    Using the glitch was the first time I felt like this is how the game should be. You get so much bad loot in 200 hours of grinding even with this glitch its crazy. And its not like you are rambo and cant die. You still need to find good spots to be in cover or else they will one shot you. I challenged myself with doing legendary runs all over again solo and hell yeah that was a lot of fun. And it tooks me 56 trys to get a crappy rolled exotic. I am a hardcore grinder and I lose 200 hours with the rollback.
    it would be fine if I would have played 50 hours but this is just mad.

    The generell loot was not very good and it feeled like grinding for legendarys in Anthem(46 hours no legendary).
    While using the glitch I went of the grid no groups and no friends that could be affected by it.

    I am a developer myself for a game company and I can say that we never would treat customer this way. They could have bring a pop up message that informs player about the situation and who ever is using it will get there accounts rolled back and my guess 90 % would have stopped right away.

    But it feels like a team from masseffect andromeda and anthem. I am not sure why they can't fix stuff that is important for players for month, instead they blame the players for there incompetence.

    Now we can't matchmake anymore because we can get banned if we matchmake with someone using any glitch.And the next think what is a glitch in there terms because some are allowed and some not.

    And now instead of buffing the weapons they are nerfing the only dps build that make sense in this game to the ground.

    This game becomes a joke and after 32 days of gametime I am going to stop until they get there **** done.

    No more Bullet sponges accept bosses and armored guys
    More rewarding Drops no purples and low tier gear in challenging and heroic missions
    Revive Hive is working as it should
    More content and better quest system.
    And the most important think is this toxic mindset that Massive has against his playerbase. If this will not change than there live service game will become the next Anthem.

    Its time for Final Fantasy 7 and to grind again like it should be ^^    … Expand

    Game is terrible. Full of bugs. Devs don't know what they are doing. Gear and loot is a endless grind for no maxed out rolls. Exotics are garbage. Gear sets are pointless and don't even work half the time. Devs do not listen to the community and constantly lie about the state of the game. I would not recommend this game to anyone.

    instead of fixing the bugs that are ruining the whole game experience for everyone, instead of fixing the broken PVP and the bullet sponge NPCs in PvE
    they ban their players for getting a benefit from the bugs they didn't fix and kept in the game for a long time

    Great game, hours of fun. Game has its buggy moments but dont they all. The matching and social menus could use some help. All games have glitches and bugs. This game has them, like the damm invisible rock that just makes me stop and I have to go around.
    The graphics look good but are very hard on your system, trade off on this one.

    Division 1: 400 hours
    Division 2 (When I made this review): 79 hrs @ GS509

    I wanted to give a fair review since most 10's in here criticize important game features but somehow it doesn't retract from a perfect score? Most 0's reviews don't give credit where credit is due.

    Pros:
    Great Atmosphere, graphics, quantity of guns and gear. Plenty of loot to choose from that can be customized to excessively with mods and combinations. Plenty of world activities, especially for the first play through at tier 1. You will not be disappointed completing the base game activities. And if that is all you're interested in for 60 bucks, you will not be disappointed.

    Cons:
    Pretty much everything else unfortunately (meaning the endgame). And before you jump to any conclusions I'm just hating on the game, I have a collective 479 hours total for the series, and to my knowledge im not a masochist.

    End game content is BROKEN.

    Gear: As of this review, the class sets (greens) are useless and inferior to anything yellow high end gear can provided. The perks they give have marginal effects on enemies and marginal beneficial effects on players. The only way to actually be relevant is to max out DPS, and focus fully on damage, and damage alone. Defense and tech capabilities just don't do any damage. This means no customizing play styles to match different enemy types or gaming preferences. Its all about point and shoot x100000. Which isn't helped by the fact that enemies are tanky bullet sponges. You and your buddies will literally follow bosses around dumping 10 mags each into his/her's face while the boss casually runs/walks around as if they're being pelted with spitballs. This pretty much sums up all smaller enemies with health bar slight bordering on 3 mags/kill (2 mags for headshots).

    With regards to weapons, the best firearms are consistently assault rifles and LMGs. Everything else, is useless save for the exception when you need a sniper to pick off a distant enemy (Which is far and few between). This becomes a frustrating and simply boring process of mindlessly shooting bullet sponges. At least in Div 1 you could try different playstyles (support/medic/assault) in order to focus on various roles. Without that, and dealing with bullet sponges, it just becomes a repetitive grindy game with no excitement in playing against AI's with the intellectual capacity of 2 brain cells (They will literally runs in circles or hop over the same piece of cover 10 times before choosing a spot)

    Additionally, the lack of polish exacerbates the aformentioned flaws. There are glitches EVERYWHERE. They happen consistently enough that you'll be dealing with them every game you play. This becomes extremely annoying when fighting on challenging or heroic, where small glitches can literally cost you the mission, forcing you start lengthy segments all over again. Glitches include:

    1. Can't revive allies
    2. Getting stuck and unable to move
    3. Equipment not deploying
    4. Failure of the UI to respond to commands such as changing cover, rolling, basic movement, deploying gear.
    5. Enemies literally popping in and out of existence. One second you be alone, the next you're surround by 4 yellow health bar enemies.
    6. Unstable server connection causing: enemy rubberbanding, delayed response, general lag
    7. Enemy health bars won't respond to damage dealt, or there is some odd delay before the game registers an enemy is out of health before "killing" that enemy
    8. Game doesn't balance out factions with lower level friends. One second we'll be playing through a mission taking appropriate damage and dealing appropriate damage, the next people are getting one shotted from no where.
    9. Enemies shoot through cover. This one is extremely annoying and frequent. I have lost track of times where enemies are firing through cement, cars, roadblocks, etc while the enemy is literally pointing their weapon through the ground or the enemy is in a regular cover animation.

    Generally speaking the game suffers from lack of balancing for gear (most gear and weapons are useless and there's not point in striving to obtain gearsets yet) as well as what seems to be complete lack of polish in the sever connection integrity and polish in gameplay represented by numerous/frequent glitches. 6.0-6.5 Average user rating is good representation for this games current state. I would highly suggest waiting a couple months for appropriate balancing to be implemented and cleaning up of the numerous glitches before spending hard earned money.    … Expand

    With the experience accumulated on The Division 1, Massive manages with TD2 to excite our curiosity. Stronger, more generous, better built, the title succeeds where other games as service before it has struggled to. Thanks to its end-game, which renew the experience by adding content and skillfully recycles the existing one, but also thanks to this map of Washington, absolutely fantastic, which allows more than ever to immerse yourself in the universe of the agents of the Division.
