    This is another game that continues the recently popular Diablo with guns genre. This one is especially boring this time around with a piss poor PVP system and an extremely MMO like emphasis on grinding. In short it's Destiny in a different setting which boils down to uninspired Skinner box **** only this time even the PVP is awful.

    Moderately good, if repetitive PvE experience that lasts about 15-20 hours. After that, the rest of the game is a grindy, poorly implemented, poorly considered game. The Darkzone(PVP) is a steaming pile of cheaters, exploiters, and outright hackers. Enemy players constantly teleport and one-shot you with aimbots, and UBIsoft/Massive do nothing about it.

    The game is also unnecessarily

    The game is also unnecessarily burdened with daily and weekly lockout timers on content. This isn't a subscription-based game, and there's no need for it. Because of those lockouts, people exploit game bugs to farm more quickly than you can by playing legitimately.

    The entire game is an overall mess. I don't know what they were thinking when they designed it. Pass on this title. Wait a year or so until all the bugs and content are updated, and HOPE that it goes on sale.

Shoot the same 8 looking NPCs every wheres you go in the game. Glitchers and hackers will love this game tho. Endless amounts of glitches to cheat to get the best gear same week vs same month or two. Hackers, only hacker detection is players reporting them and Massive "looks into it". 3 day ban before 2nd offense Perm ban. Just keep changing your user name to avoid this.

    Massive is more concerned playing the game at work and streaming it, rather than doing actual patch work to fix issues. Massive is more for, change something little like unable to cause damage with your gun, after a week of people cheating this way. To now, use Sticky bombs and explosive ammo to kill the target while today they announced the next "patch" will make it so only C4 (as the mission is attended for it to be) will do damage. While the major reason to the glitches that been on going for weeks, still is allowed. But hey, what do you expect from a company that makes a joke about a credit glitch called Bullet King. They took their time to patch that, than just made it into big ha ha on Ubisoft site with showcasing clips of people doing the glitch; no punishment is ever handed out for glitching. Just tweaks to the system like crafting that punishes the legit players more than anything.

    Game could've been something great. Just too large of a project for a company that is so new and has basically all fresh out of school employees. Ubisoft should've left it in Red Storms hands to build or another with experience and understanding of the gaming community to not make jokes at large issues that they avoided to repair for long periods of time.

    This could be a great game, but at the moment it is terrible, not fit for purpose. Until they get their problems sorted, they should refund every purchase until they are usable. If I had known the problems, I would not have bought it

    End-Game GamePlay - Extremely Repetitive & Limited - Missions (4) or Incursions (1 for now) & Dark Zone (PvP), that's it!
    Elite enemies (especially in incursions) take multiple magazines of bullets to take down 1 enemy, while they all have 1-shot kill ability and they send 1/2 a dozen at a time & they don't miss.
    Gear is very randomized and getting the specs you want is less than 1%

    PvP (DZ) is chalked FULL of hackers, although they seemed to have fixed the problem temporarily with a slew of 2-week bans, now the DZs are virtually empty! LOL
    The game has been full of glitches & exploits from the beginning, plus random DC issues all the time due to Uplay cloud syncing issues.
    Basically not much to do and a lot for Ubi-Soft to fix. Not much of an RPG experience, just mindless gear grind for perhaps PvP fun with hackers that can one-shot you from a mile away across the map and then teleport to you and steal your gear.

The atmosphere is fantastic and you really get the feeling of being in NYC following a catastrophic event. I didn't mind the grind to 30 and there was enough instances to enjoy along the way. It was fun to watch your BoO transform and for people to being to populate it. The mechanics are pretty solid, with the exception of moving in and out of cover can cause frustration. These are the reasons I gave it a score of 2, because everything else about the game has been a disappointment.

    There is very little class variation or ability to play a different style of game, such as being a tank or a healer. It's obvious there was some effort to create different classes, but it fall way short. So regardless of what build or talents you pick the game basically feels the same.

    One of the issues with this game is the lack of end game content. The best equipment and weapons in the game are crafted, which defeats the purpose and fun of defeating a boss or instance. The last patch supposedly addressed this, but it truly failed to do so. Once you get enough materials to craft a new weapon or piece of equipment you are left to the mercy of a RNG and it doesn't seem random at all. In fact it seems to be weighted to prevent you from getting the kind of stats you are looking for. I crafted about 30 of the same gun and ended up with one that was acceptable, not ideal.

    Glitching bosses is another issue. Players purposely glitched the game to kill the same boss over and over again. Where's the fun in that? While I never did it, I can understand it to a degree when you are subject to crafting the best stuff in the game and facing an imbalanced RNG. I dislike when people exploit an online game because it tends to ruin the over all feel and community of the game.

    The biggest issue with this game is that hackers run rampant in the Dark Zone. Even after going through the process of reporting them it seems like nothing happens. One time my friends and I even had a guy in the DZ admit he was hacking and teleporting and said he would only get a two day ban so it was no big deal. This was after he had killed us with one shot and was hiding inside a vehicle, which isn't normally accessible, so it was impossible to shoot back at him.

    How can you release an online multiplayer game without any form of anti-cheat requirements???? It's as though the developers and publisher want people to cheat. I know they say they are addressing the issue, but this is a game breaker that responding to such a serious oversight after release amounts to too little, too late for most players.

    In a game where grinding levels and gear is required by running the same instance or route over and over and over again, even to the point of complete boredom, to have another player instantly kill you because they are cheating is infuriating. At first my friends and I were angry with the cheaters, but after it was obvious that cheaters were running around unchecked it became obvious that the true issue is Ubisoft and the game itself.

    Don't waste your time or money. I wish it was different because this game has such potential.

    The end game is nothing but an endless grind for gear. You can get geared up in 1 night and spend the rest of your time doing the same stuff over and over again for a minor increase in stats.
    The season pass was a scam as well with worthless content that nobody plays and you cannot find a group for 95% of the time.

    Relent and connect steam to Uplay.
    The division finally starts.
    Log in. Get a series of images passing by so fast you can't actually watch it. Yeah, some kind of virus killed the populace. Get on with it.
    Emerge in a street. I can choose a character. I am a woman and I am white. The only two white women are a young dyke(only cropped haircuts) or the older variant of that girl with the option of having a small pony tail. The young girl is plain looking, the older one is ugly.
    I get annoyed.
    Picked the young one.
    Get instructions how to shoot(i know this stuff already so let's get going).
    The sign of button pops up. I probably have to press it. No explanation which button it is, so finally go into the menu and look at the controls: it is the space bar.
    Ok. Lets go. Press shift. I don't sprint.
    Look again in the controls: shift is sprint. Press shift again: can't sprint.
    Get seriously frustrated..
    Follow the instruction to shoot at the assigned objects and jump over obstacles.
    Can sprint now with shift.
    So they only unlock the sprint control after your followed the instructions.
    Move to some safehouse that I was ordered to go to.
    Safehouse crawls with people Called TSSSSsssK or GotaGartcha baby. UnderBeat or Malaficky. That I know from MMO's. What are all these people doing in my singleplayer?
    I get instruction to equip my frist skill. No explanation how to do this. So I have to figure out how to do it..
    Finally I get to go. I get three generic MMO style quests offered. Fetch this. Escort that or do this.
    Stopped game., deinstalled it and asked a refund.

    According to steam I played this game 39 minutes. It feels like I did not play at all.
    Looks nice though.

    I had already written one review on The Division around 2 months after it had released, I gave it a 5 then and since have had a change of heart in regards to that score. I had racked up 250 hours before writing the first review and have done considerable hours since.

    Initially I had enjoyed playing this game, I'm not going to go into detail about that as it is in my initial review, I'm just going to concentrate on my experience after that which was not good. The game has so many flaws it really does beggar belief how it made it to retail, even now given the state of the game is should still not be released, bugs, exploits, glitches and the massively unbalanced nature of pvp, be it the glitch exploiters who farm the incursions for all the best gear or just plain cheaters.

    When the Underground dlc dropped I was hoping that it would put the game back on track and fix some of the issues as well as give players some much needed variation, sadly after a week or so I realized that the Underground was also as linear as the rest of the game and just as tedious and repetitive. To make matters worse, the rewards for finishing in Challenging and Heroic were horrendously poor, the infinite grind (for me at least) was never rewarding. i tried pvp again and it was just as awful as last time, my character was reasonably strong 500damage and 400stamina yet while I was wasting masses of ammo clips on players, a few shots would always take me down, despite popping my alt and using the strengths of my build. Something was glitching or I was just always matched up against people who I had no chance of beating, the balance was way off, I lost interest after that and haven't been back since and I doubt I will.

    I learned a valuable lesson though, never pre order and never buy dlc early, I threw a lot of money into this game and despite having done around 300 hours on it I still don't feel I have had my moneys worth. I should still be playing this game, sadly its faults are too big to be ignored and it just becomes boring, unrewarding and extremely repetitive to play. It's deleted from my hard drive and will probably stay that way.

    So initially I gave it a 5/10, my experiences thereafter and the fact that fixes are still proving to be elusive have made me reconsider. I now give it a 1/10 and it can be lucky it got that 1 for the overall concept. The execution of everything in this game is what contributes to my new score of 1/10, shoddy, unfinished and extremely poor execution have sullied my perception of a game that initially at least I enjoyed.

    Massive and Ubisoft promise fixes, sadly I have waited long enough and while 1.4 is imminent, sadly for Ubnisoft and Massive so is Battlefield 1, FIFA 16, Mafia 3 and a host of other games that will forever bury my interest in returning to this sorry spectacle of a game.

    I seriously urge anyone who hasn't bought it yet to read extensively on it before buying or even better, get a hands on play from friends or something, I don't think it's current price is justifiable, especially when including the dlc. In fact, if I could I'd ask for a refund but I've already played too much of it. Be careful with this game and do your homework.

    The games content is extremely grindy even before end game, every mission or encounter is the exact same.

    Incursion is just one giant meat grinder. Survive wave after wave in the same small area, with 0 save points. I can understand why people would rather glitch it then run it right, there is nothing rewarding about the gameplay in this mission.

    I don't think I've every played a game from a development team as incompetent as Massive. Glaring bugs everywhere. Horribly broken loot system. Game is okay up until 30, but complete and utter garbage afterwards.

    The PC version has a rampant hacker problem. Do not buy this game for PC. The singe player is indeed fun, and a lot of the coop makes the game enjoyable, but ass I spend most of the game playing against other players, this game is not worth it......

    A terrible game once you get past the introduction (the first 30 levels).

While Ubisoft now seem to be giving temporary bans to cheaters, they don't seem to be doing nothing to remove gear gained from

While Ubisoft now seem to be giving temporary bans to cheaters, they don't seem to be doing nothing to remove gear gained from hacks/exploits from players which means there's a Massive imbalance in Massive's vision of forced PvP.

    Oh and good luck getting the equipment you need. You need to kill something like 12,000 bosses (source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQJAarzogn8) to get a gun with the stats you like. Have fun.

    The environment looks nice map is rather large immersive, and graphics are rather nice when turned up. but nothing really creative has been done with it, copy and paste side missions and railed story missions and challenges, no decision mechanics in such a large game. boring as **** loot grind that no one but the lifers will ever really bother with, horribly delayed shot registration, half assed server tick rate, multiplayer disconnects, and broken Uplay functionality hobble what could have been a great game.

    so much potential flushed down the drain really could have been one of the best games in a long time but it will turn out to be an over priced flavor of the month exercise in mediocrity and corporate powered game creation.

I cant even say the multiplayer experience is that entertaining, it doesnt bring anything really new when you cooperate with teammates, its just your ordinary shooting experience. It is hard for me to get what ubisoft truly tried to achieve, i cannot see what their original goal was, but the result is an average shooting game with rpg mechanics. I cannot recommand it if you want a sinngle player experience because story is poor, but its not either your best choice if you want to play in multiplayer. The game lacks identify and refined game mechanics?Maybe it tried to appeal to veryone, but satisfied nobody? Expand

    It is forced always online. If severs or your internet connection goes down the game shuts down. When developers decide they don't want to support the game anymore and don't bother releasing an offline patch you will have bought an useless brick.

    This game really does deserve a zero. There are so many problems it boggles the mind. I have never been more certain that a game has been given false positive reviews than I am with The Division. Everything negative you are reading in the reviews is true.

    If you have ever wondered why it is a bad thing to have to always be connected while playing a game, then look no further than this
    This game really does deserve a zero. There are so many problems it boggles the mind. I have never been more certain that a game has been given false positive reviews than I am with The Division. Everything negative you are reading in the reviews is true.

    If you have ever wondered why it is a bad thing to have to always be connected while playing a game, then look no further than this game as a perfect example. You get disconnected, or can't connect in the first place, for so many reasons. It's lots of fun being almost finished with a brutally hard mission and then being disconnected. It's also a great time when your profile needs to be rebuilt and you lose hours of progress or have to completely start over again.

    The AI in this game is the worst I have ever seen. I understand that AI in a game usually involves some kind of cheating to make sure it is not too easy, but this AI has no intelligence at all and consists of nothing more than flat out cheating. Your enemies can shoot you before they see you. They can shoot you through barriers, including walls. They can shoot you from incredible distance no matter what weapon they have. Their standard weapons can shoot you from further away than any sniper rifle you may have. Their weapons will also kill you in the blink of an eye. So much so that you may not even have a second to take cover before your dead. Then they will often just walk or run right up to you and kill you while your blasting them in the face the whole time. Their accuracy is incredible. They can face away from you and still hit you while firing their gun. Apparently the AI is set up so they don't have an accuracy rating, it's just an automatic hit. You, on the other hand, have to put with things like laptops and flimsy barriers completely blocking your fire while they fire right through them. It's not just enemy AI that is awful, the NPCs are terrible. The voices are disconnected from the people who are supposedly speaking. They face away from you and talk to walls when they are supposed to be addressing you. You see the same couple of interactions wherever you travel. It's so stupid they would have been better off just leaving the city empty. The civilians just casually walk right into your firefights. The soldiers who sometimes "assist" you literally never hit anything and walk casually among the enemies who have no interest in hurting them even though they are supposedly firing at them. They will, however, do as much as possible to get in your way.

    The mission design is very poor and repetitive. The fact that you have to grind so much makes that aspect even more unpleasant. Everyone talks about all of the "loot", but what is the point? Most of the items are worthless and any upgrades are immediately nullified by the enemy AI being upgraded. Getting an "upgrade" will often make things more difficult for you as the enemies more than offset any new weapons or armor.

    I wouldn't touch "Tom Clancy's The Division 2" with a ten foot pole. Gamers buying garbage like this make me sad, and are ruining gaming.

    To begin with, I was looking for an open world RPG, but that is not what I have received. They promised a compelling MMO experience, but so far all the MMO elements have achieved is letting people block the doorway for the entire beginning of the game, making it unplayable.
    Online, no one actually joins games when you're looking, because the matchmaking is worse than the Microsoft Zune.

    The stale elements of an RPG are completely irrelevant, when all you have is a linear world. I think Ubisoft have failed to realise that a game isn't really open-world, if there is absolutely nothing between the mission and base camp. If I run straight from one side of the map to the other, I get maybe 10 minutes of random events in between, which is pathetic. I've seen people comparing this game to Fallout 4's map, but at least Fallout 4 gives you a dense map, with lots to explore.

    And finally, the RPG elements are simply: run to this place, and shoot some people... pick up some **** loot...run back to base camp. The upgrades system is uninspired and dull, and the game itself does very little to componsate for it's CONSTANT frame drops. I run a high-end system, and the game can't even keep 60fps on medium settings.

    Poorly optimised for PC, Stale RPG elements, not open world, poorly executed network and matchmaking.

    As a solo player, this is the worst looter shooter game I have ever played. Zero game balance skew towards singleplayer. Boss enemies are just high damage high accuracy bullet sponges and all you can do is to dance around them because they can snipe you with minigun. And when there is more than one in a tight spot, you are screwed. Zero fun, very frustrating.

    The third person shooting mechanics and the cover system is solid. The world is somewhat small and 1/5 of what the map indicates but is well done if somewhat monotonous.

    The real problem of the game lies with the loot variety and enemy variety there are very very few weapons and only 5 enemy variations you will be fighting for 100s of hours with only one of them with unique mechanics and the others just skin changes.

    Another huge problem the game has is the story it's nearly non existing and told through videos and text you have to gather on the map. You will be wishing the story was as good as Diablo 3 and that is saying a lot (Diablo 3 story sucked).

    PC Port : The optimization is horrible there are a couple game breaking bugs and random disconnections as we all expect from a ubisoft title.

    Conclusion: The game is solid at its foundation but lacks content (in enemies and loot) ,those that played the second beta those are all the enemies and all the weapon variations you will find in the game even in lvl 30.
    I don't recommend the game to anyone at least untill huge content patches optimizations and fixes come out.

    P.S : I am about 10 hours into the game and I will play no more as I am bored already killing the same enemies and getting the same weapons.

    Ubisoft gives infratctions on their forum for even disagreeing with a decision no matter how stunningly stupid it is.
    They think ganking and griefing in the DZ is actually entertaining game content. The PC users on Steam are already down 95% and they refuse to talk about total users. No information gives them plausible deniability.
    The hitboxes are only head, neck and torso. That is all. Again, lazy game design. Weapons that share a common ammo can actually have vastly different damage. Even with the blueprints the number range it says to expect often isn't even what you end up getting.
    Crafting was nerfed because they think we should spend endless hours hoping we get a decent drop. Sorry, was this meant to be fun or a damn job?
    The Light Zone as they refer to the PVE world is dead, empty, vapid and after you finish the short main story it no longer has a reason to exist so they tossed some repetitive Incursions into them.
    Oh they also gave you the HVT's but then decided they should require a full squad, not offer a functioning matchmaking system for them and weight the drops so that they in all likelihood only give you the same damn piece of gear. You know, more of that broken ass RNG I mentioned.
    The Support people are useless. Had somebody get into my Uplay account (which I shouldn't have to go through to simply play a game I never purchased directly from them) and I ended up with a 14 day ban because of it. They gave me no way to self report it. They won't even verify the IP address, that the password was in fact changed or that they screwed with my save file and characters in the process. I was told to prove it wasn't me. WTF?
    They ban people for cheating as well without proof and then demand they prove they did not cheat either which they know there is no way to do if they give you no details as to what, where, when, how you were cheating and assume everyong has a monster hard drive and records all gaming sessions since day **** one.
    Despite a metric eff ton of positive and well thought out ideas for ways to fix the game in their feedback, they simply ignore them.
    Now they are pushing Watch Dogs 2, another game they released broken after some false advertising and then dropped all support for. Sorry, you screwed me enough times already. Never purchasing anything with their name on it ever again. I really do hope Vivendi completes the hostile takeover and fires the entire company. Black ball those asshats.
    Oh I forgot, piss poor game optimization, they lied about a functioning anti-cheat in beta, they lied about the "rewards" the Season Pass owners would get, they lied about the outfits that they were to get as well and they continue to lie about their player base. At E3 they just claimed they had 10 million active players playing 3hrs a day. They maybe sold that many copies, ever but damn sure not 10 million people playing the game for 3 hours a day.
    Nothing to see here, just another POS game from a POS company looking to take your money.

It wears on you and people should be aware that there is a complete lack of communication from the Dev team to the players. They will lightly talk about it on twitch feeds but avoid the subject. They don't respond on the forums. They don't send in game messages, they have so many avenues to talk to people and let them know whats going on yet they are quite as church mice.

    The exploiters are the worst. They should have rolled this patch back, yet they chose to bulldoze forward. Now the changes to crafting that upped the cost was a direct cause by people using exploits. Everyone suffered because of these cheaters. Now we have super human like hacking in the DZ. There is so much evidence, yet they don't do anything. They did do 3 day bans, but nothing else that I have seen. They refuse to name the users or say what bans handed out. They won't talk about the elephant in the room.

    Un juego que podría haber sido muy grande si no fuera porque está administrado por Ubisoft.

    Bugs, gente que se aprovecha de exploits, hackers, cheaters, una historia que es pésima, un modo campaña que es corto, muchísima falta de contenido, sobre todo mas variedad de misiones y enemigos. Una vez alcanzas el Nivel 30 y terminas la campaña pasas a depender de la Zona Oscura o repetir
    Un juego que podría haber sido muy grande si no fuera porque está administrado por Ubisoft.

    Bugs, gente que se aprovecha de exploits, hackers, cheaters, una historia que es pésima, un modo campaña que es corto, muchísima falta de contenido, sobre todo mas variedad de misiones y enemigos.

    Una vez alcanzas el Nivel 30 y terminas la campaña pasas a depender de la Zona Oscura o repetir las mismas misiones de la campaña infinitas veces solo que con mayor dificultad, el problema es que o bien haces las misiones en dificultad desafiante (Lo cual es imposible si no juegas en equipo con gente buena) o bien vas a la Zona Oscura, esa zona en la que el 80% son Hackers, 10% se han aprovechado de Exploits para farmear Fenix (Por tanto viene a ser como Hackers pero de forma "legal") y 10% restante son los jugadores normales que juegan sin aprovecharse de Exploits ni usan hacks, pues bien los que somo ese último 10% de jugadores que jugamos normal solo somos dianas andantes para el resto de jugadores ya que o usas Hacks/Exploits o no tienes ninguna posibilidad, es por esto que la Zona Oscura y por ende el multijugador PVP ESTÁ ROTO, si a esto le sumamos los bugs como los disparos que atraviesan paredes (Bug que ocurre desde la primera beta cerrada, asi que imaginarse la de soluciones que ponen) entonces la Zona Oscura viene a pasar de ser zona PVP a zona de tortura y pérdida de tiempo ya que da igual lo bien equipado vayas y vayas en grupo o no porque está plagado de gentuza que destrozan el juego mas de lo que ya de por si está.

    Mi recomendación para todo el que se piense comprar este juego es que no lo haga, no confiéis en las falsas promesas de Ubisoft de solucionar problemas porque no lo harán y no es algo nuevo, para que pudieran solucionar todos estos problemas tendrían que modificar el juego de 0 y hacerlo como se debe, ahora el código fuente es una basura, es un coladero y no tiene solución posible, dicho por expertos en el mundo de los videojuegos.

    Como decía no tireis vuestro dinero en este juego ni ningún otro de Ubisoft.

    The solo campaign and the art & design of the game are superb, the rest is a complete disaster. Huge lag, thousands of bugs, millions of cheaters. Before they were teleporting and shooting through the buildings, now they just use aimbots, damage mods, speedhacks. Usually you kill a player and minutes after he appears and one shot all your team. Anticheat system is not implemented (in 2016)The solo campaign and the art & design of the game are superb, the rest is a complete disaster. Huge lag, thousands of bugs, millions of cheaters.

    The patches they release fix one thing and break 100. Literally no endgame. At least I learned a lesson, never ever again buy a game with Ubisoft name on it.
    Ubisoft you're a shame for the videogames industry.

    First, it always crashes when I'm playing this game. It crashes again and again!!! My PC is fine and It doesn't happen when I play GTAV, Battlefield, Call of Duty or other games. Secondly, cheaters are everywhere in dark zone.
    I won't recommend this game to other gamers.

    жестокий даунгрейд. Я купил игру по скидке и сезонку и она стоила больше чем сама игра, без скидки одинаково то есть вы покупаете обрезанный кусок говна и вам говорят заплатите такую же цену и получите полную игру. Кст сюжет короткий и просто не о чем, а геймплей ооочень скушный (тупой гринд).жестокий даунгрейд.

    This game is filled with bug and the developers don't even care of fixing it.

    Bad concept badly executed.

    Storyline? There is none. Controls? Just take the regulars one, delete all the useful mapping and then f ock up the remaining ones after a good dose of drugs. AI?Just some random functions glued together. Quests? There are no such things, it's the same objective over and over and over again. Weapons? Let's avoid the argument (even Serious Sam had better

    Weapons? Let's avoid the argument (even Serious Sam had better mechanics).
    Gear? The same 3 items with the same 3 mods, but they come in different colors and levels! What do the colors and levels mean you ask? Nothing! But at least you won't notice the complete halt of progression after two minutes of playtime.

    As per the Co-Op/Multiplayer, you literally have no idea of how badly it is implemented, if you try the hard mode on the main quests, you will keep praying got that no one will join, because there is no way the average Division fan will be able to even reach the initial objective (literally the entrance door).

    First mission, no problem (no loot), second mission, no problem (A worse sidearm), third mission, no problem (a west with 7 armor), Fourth mission unbeatable the boss enemy kills you with a few shots and is the worst bulletsponge I've ever seen, as soon as you fire frome cover you get murdered by him.

    Can't abort the mission to farm for gear, tried to play with other players, no one

    What a crappy game, glad the second one is good.

    Thought this game would be like apocaliptic zombie shooter with pvp system not a unispired half finished pay to win shooter with braindead story, feels like no effort was put into making good story world, many bugs except stuff that is pay to win works which is typical for ea and now for ubisoft I guess, the world is just copy paste, a grindy leveling system, a excuse for pvp where playersThought this game would be like apocaliptic zombie shooter with pvp system not a unispired half finished pay to win shooter with braindead story, feels like no effort was put into making good story world, many bugs except stuff that is pay to win works which is typical for ea and now for ubisoft I guess, the world is just copy paste, a grindy leveling system, a excuse for pvp where players will can shoot you if you go rouge at extraction if you try to steal loot and for some reason not in battlefield and also winning the fight is entarely dependant on 1 mechanic FACKING LEVELS AND PAY TO WIN **** overall 1 of the worst games I have played and it definetly deserves far worse score (about 2.3), you outdid yourself ubisoft you started to compete with ea BRAVO.

    It took The Division a lot of time to reach our computers and consoles, but it was worth waiting for. We have already spent about 200 hours with it collectively and we’re not planning on abandoning it, because it is, simply put, outstanding and shows amazing potential for the future. [05/2016, p.30]

    So what is Tom Clancy's The Division? Addictive action RPG in a beautiful coat that grabs you and doesn´t let go. [Issue#263]

    An immensely thrilling action-MMO hybrid, but good for 30 hours rather than the hoped-for 300. [May 2016, p.70]
