    So many butthurt call of duty players who wanted this to be an MMO call of duty. If you enjoy looter RPGs like borderlands or Diablo, you will love this. It's got great gameplay mechanics and the missions are all unique. It's only been out for a week and the devs are already fast at working balancing and adding new content.

    If you like Loot based shooters, you must go pick this game up ASAP. It is much better than other loot driven shooters in this genre like Borderlands 2 and Destiny (More fun, better setting, better mix of pvp, better graphics, better atmosphere, better story, etc.. Oh yeah and the cover system is well done to, a better version of Gears Of War's cover system.

    Ubisofts best game since Blood Dragon!

    I have two things to take away after reaching max level and completing two challenge modes. I'm at around 100kdps and 60k health.

    Holy crap am I glad I bought this game and can we please reroll weapons/mods as we can armor? This game is like a cross between Watch Dogs, Borderlands, and D3. This is not a game for COD drop shotters or 360noscopers, it relies heavily on Intelligence,

    This game is like a cross between Watch Dogs, Borderlands, and D3. This is not a game for COD drop shotters or 360noscopers, it relies heavily on Intelligence, not reflexes. Early on (leveling) this will seem apparent with positioning and minor tactics, but this becomes really obvious after max level in the Dark Zone, and then Challenge modes. After the most recent challenge mode my group wiped in less than 5 seconds from pulling the first pack, prompting us to come up with ability swaps and ideas on how to meet the challenge. In total I think it took us around two hours to complete and was an absolute blast of a challenge. This game is heavy on teamwork, being adaptable, and critical thinking to figure out the best approach. I should also point out that there is not one "A.I." in this game, but dozens... and they get harder as you meet different factions. I treat LMB with far more respect than Cleaners as they have proven their capability to get behind me (freaking shotguns... I swear). Not to mention that several bosses don't act in the same manner as normal enemies you fight, I shudder to think of what a shotgun boss will be like...

    Honestly I think a better way to look at the content in this game is that you have two different types of levels. You have experience levels and dark zone levels. 30 experience levels and 50 Dark Zone levels, it isn't grindy at all to get to level 30 and start the gear game. The dark zone is very grindy though and is much more pleasant with friends and exploring new areas (At the point of this review I am level 30 and 30 DZ rank). I started this game solo and met several people along the way through matchmaking and the Dark Zone (Ubisoft needs to have an in game method of adding friends... not being able to do so is really stupid) so my Uplay friends list now has enough people that I'm never playing alone.

    I think my only real complaint is the lack of PVP, and if you read "I hate the pvp" in anyone's reviews, they are lying because the only pvp is a weird zone wide manhunt. If you "go rogue" in the DZ you get skulls over your head that tell everyone in the zone you are worth 10 times more DZ rep than anything in the zone... so of course all 30+ people in the zone stop what they are doing and hunt you down. I've actually really enjoyed the hunting rogues down experience, but there is little benefit to being rogue and as I've played longer and longer I've seen fewer and fewer rogues, because it just isn't worth it. So the DZ is largely people farming elites similar to the welfare isles in WOW (rare farming). I think the game would really benefit from a 4v4 or 8v8 instanced pvp zone (similar to battlegrounds). In my opinion there is no real pvp in the game.

    In a word though, the game is fantastic. It has been a fantastic experience and I intend on playing a great deal more over the next year or so. I find it odd that I'm giving this a 10, but I'm not judging it by Ubisoft or their stupid Uplay. I'm judging it by the content in the game and the fun I've had playing it. It has been more fun than any game I've played in the last two years, I hope it continues to be.

The Division however has not only surpassed my dwindling expectations, but it has also restored a considerable amount of faith in Ubisoft as a whole as this is not only a very grand and stunning experience; but it also runs to an exceptional standard especially when compared to their and many other AAA games. Developers Massive Entertainment have simply outshone the publishers and their other internal in-house development teams.

    The game is largely a solo/co-op cover-based shooter in 3rd person with RPG elements. It takes place in a scaled-down but still sizable New York City in several areas and is a grand and atmospheric experience with lots to explore and places to discover. You grind by completing main missions, side missions and other occurrences that pop up to earn XP and there is always plenty of things to do. The loot aspect is also engaging as you try to obtain the best weapons and equipment which can benefit you in battle against the AI or fellow players in the Dark Zone. Each mission has a recommended level to participate in so the game forces you to experience many fringe missions to rank up which enables the player to get the most out of the game instead of trying to rush to the finish. It is incredibly well-balanced.

    Visually; the game looks stunning - I am running this on an ageing GTX770 on high settings and not only does it still look amazingly detailed; I was happily running this at a consistent framerate just shy of 60fps throughout. I experienced no lag, stutters or drops which is an absolute testament to the developers in their optimization execution. You don't see this very often especially with Ubisoft and the typcial AAA market these days. The game may not look as remarkable as once seen back in 2013 but it isn't far off and the level of detail and dynamic effects are staggering at times.

    The mechanics in respect to the controls have been implemented superbly too - the cover system works fluently and the movement is absolutely slick. Shooting is also solid and the guns are all varied based on their type and stats. Many developers over the years have expressed their difficulties in developing engines with 3rd person physics - it plagued Rockstar games for years and other teams have struggled to provide the user with clean and fluid controls but Ubisoft Massive have succeeded here on a huge scale.

    Surprisingly, there isn't too many negatives although some players who are rolling solo may find the game a tad repetitive in time. The AI is also iffy at best and whilst they do provide some fierce battles; their behaviour is somewhat questionable. This game is also required to run online at all times although in the period I have been playing; I have only experienced one disconnect - the stability of the Ubisoft servers which have been called into question countless times in the past is actually not an issue which is a surprise despite a day one two hour downtime. The one personal disappointment for me is that the user interface and HUD is quite cluttered and ugly but the latter can be customized in the menu and the menu interface needs a bit of adjusting too from a personal standpoint. Unfortunately; it's not quite as clean and stylish as originally seen back when the game was first announced but on the whole; it's just a minor niggle.

    Overall; The Division has exceeded my expectations on a significant scale that I did no expect. Despite all the murmurings and frustrations post-Watch Dogs in the last couple of years; Ubisoft have finally delivered a solid and sensational experience that is not only polished on an incredible scale; it's almost a generation-defining game. The absence of serious problems and the consistency in which the game runs is also another major boost that rights the wrongs of Ubisoft's bleak recent history. Another remarkable achievement is that this game has zero loading screens in-game which allows you to explore New York above and below ground into missions and other locations without any interruptions whatsoever - this is almost unthinkable in respects to the scale of it. The game is best played with friends but even as a solo player; the amount of content here is sublime and if you're a fan of RPG's and shooters; this is an absolute must buy. Whether you detest Ubisoft or AAA games these days; you have to appreciate the effort and execution of this highly ambitious title as it really puts other games to shame. Whether this is a one-off or if Ubisoft have finally turned a corner remains to be seen but this game has potential to be enjoyed for months and years to come.

    Gameplay is awesome, city is huge and level of detail is never seen before in a video game. Main missions are awesome, while side missions can be repetetive - but never boring, thanks to breathtaking city (interiors included), and crisp gameplay.

    Just remember this is not a tactical shooter, or any kind of shooting simulation.
    This is a loot based game (like Diablo, Torchlight or similar action RPG's where you collect better and better gear as you progress) in a "real world" enviroment and GTA style combat with cover system (as in Mass Effect). You shoot things until they die. If your weapon DPS is weak, you will have to shoot longer in onder to bring their HP to 0, just like in other action RPG's.

    Weapon variety is great, with ridiculous amount of different mods.

    Potential of this game is just huge...but you need to try it to believe it, you will not be dissapointed! (unless you seek tactical shooting simulator).

    One of the best game from Ubisoft. The graphics are amazing, the UI is close to perfection and the Control/Gameplay is pretty good. Best AI for a FPS game I've seen so far, wait for the LMBs if you think I'm wrong here. This game is fun, but it so much better when you play with friends. It's one hell of a FPS MMORPG!

    It's F*** too early to give a game with end game a simple score. Diablo did an okay job for the first 10 hours of game play, but sucked at end game, as a result diablo 3's rating is really low.
    played the game for a few hours, I would safely say that this game really good. It's conceptually basically a borderland game with modern graphics, combined with shooting mechanics of 'Uncharted'.

    the division is a beautiful game. First of all it is a role playing game so do not expect something like rainbow six, you will be dealing with numbers and you have to plan everything well. This means that the strategy and the equipment are essential and if you are not able to play, or you have not ever played an RPG, the game can be very hard and lead some players to hate it.

So unfortunately no one has understood the meaning of this game because usually people who play fps have not the slightest idea of what an RPG is, it is simply the ignorance that drives these people to give a negative evaluation to this game.

    Second thing the black zone is a fantastic experience that everyone should try, in this the division is one of the best games I've ever played much more than games like Dying Light and other crap like badlands.

    I played a lot to fallout 4, one of the best RPGs I've ever played and I assure you that to kill a simple raider i needed more than ten headshots to kill him then do not say crap and buy this fantastic game, I'm waiting you in the black zone!

Seriously if you read some of them, its as if they have a personal vendetta against Ubisoft... if you don't like something, you need to be critical but also objective. You can read how they feel they have been cheated or the information they provide is factually in-accurate. Microtransactions are in the game, they are for visual upgrades only. DLC is paid for but if you have the season pass, it gives you a percentage saving in the long run.

    The game play is a mix of Gears Of War cover shooting with Ghost Recon style "run here, get into cover there" mechanics. The graphics are amazing, they went back to tweek some of the lighting and some other atmospheric details with the day 1 patch, very well done on keeping the game away from an early release and it shows the delays were worth it!

    You are a Division Agent, called upon when the world has collapsed into anarchy. JTF are the games version of NATO and are the martial law. The missions (26 Main) are well put together and have a mix bag of objectives which resolve around a mutated small pox virus being unleashed on Black Friday - very clever and ties in perfectly to the whole current social understanding of the event. Mad rush shoppers spreading the virus as they spend cash and expediting the end times! The game does throw alot of info at you - one review from time.com explains that the game world is always shouting something at you or throwing up some graphic or detail all at the sametime which can be a little disorientating. The side missions are also very engaging and are light relief to the games main missions. Replay on this game is good, want to tackle the encounter from another angle or go vertical - go for it!

    Overall, when considering the release window for this game was very quiet and Destiny being in a shallow pit at the moment, this is the meat on the bones players have been looking for. If your looking for some really good social gaming, this has it. Joined Discord and have met some good people who are all in it for the same reason I am - immersion and a sense of relief from the mundane real lives we live. Who wouldn't want to be part of a group who are called on to save the world!

    - REVIEW -

    The Division is a third-person cover-based modern-day Borderlands-esque MMORPG-lite.

    It is not a third-person cover shooter that happens to have a solid RPG component. It is an RPG that happens to have solid third-person cover shooter mechanics.

    If you don't like the idea of having to shoot a boss enemy multiple times in the head, then this is not your game. If you don't like the idea of having to grind levels and loot to beat that "bullet sponge" enemy, then this is not your game (spoiler alert: it's an RPG, if you're encountering bullet sponges, then you're not strong enough, and it's your fault). If you don't usually like RPG-style games, this probably won't change your mind.

    If, on the other hand, you want a fun third person RPG with solid cover-shooter mechanics, good customization options (aesthetic and functional), and an aesthetic that definitely evokes the feel of an apocalypse-ish New York City, circa-2013, then you might just like the game. Calling it repetitive is not unfair, but I find the gameplay thoroughly enjoyable (best cover system I've ever used), so for me it's about as "repetitive" as Borderlands.

    If you played the beta, you pretty much saw what was available. If you liked it, you'll like having some more room to do stuff in the retail version, and a little more stuff to do. If you didn't like the beta, you won't like the retail version (so why did so many of you buy it).

    "Review" is based on approximately 15 hours with the beta and 6 hours with the retail version.

    Оказывается в игре столько всего, что я до сих пор открываю что-то новое. Главное тут выполнять побочные и такие миссии, т.к. необходимы очки для прокачки базы, которая в свою очередь открывать доступ к новым перкам.
    Вся суть игры расскрывается именно в кооперативном прохождении, в соло проходить миссии очень скучно, и я считаю именно это ее слабой стороной.
    Она гарантированно стоит своих денег, но конечно заранее убедитесь что потянет ли ваше железо картинку (хотя бы на средних, если ниже планка там совсем жутко смотрится) в 40-60 фпс.

    Да и прежде чем судить об игре, рекомендую попросить у кого-нибудь дать доступ к The Division через Share и поиграть часик другой с кем-нибудь. Много негатива вызвали nVidia со своими кривыми драйверами, а пострадала игра, что теперь мы видим п ооценкам пользователей, ну и просто от нелюбителей жанра, не знаю чего ожидающих от ММОРПГ.

The people who are giving this low scores are bitter individuals who don't have a PC that can run the game and can't afford a console either. It's just a shame that this site allows upset people to vent their nonsense and troll with low scores even if they haven't played the game.

    The Division is one of the fastest selling AAA games and will become one of the biggest brands in videogame history. It looks amazing in 4K and even on weaker cards; it runs immensely well. Ubisoft have completely obliterated the AAA market at last with a game people can finally be proud of.

    The salty COD, CSGO and DOTA players can go back to their tinpot PC's and drool in the knowledge they wont ever have hardware to play this but there is no need to behave so childishly out of pure jealousy. Best game of all time.

    So far so good, even though its can be repetitive you can up the difficulty really making it challenging. The Dark zone is really where its at though, i do enjoy the story but there is a tension in the dark zone that makes it really exciting. Do i go rogue or don't I?!?!

I do have to state that this review is based on the fact that i have a couple friends i play with which i believe is definitely the key. The matchmaking systems seems good but playing with people you know really makes it feel like a team! Expand

    While there is still room for improvements, the core basis is solid and fun, especially with friends. The Darkzone is the open PVP experience I was looking for! Visuals are awesome, in particular compared to other online action games and atmosphere is great. When you cross people in need in the blizzard I felt sorry I almost shoot at him. Not as sorry as when I killed a dog by accident.While there is still room for improvements, the core basis is solid and fun, especially with friends.

    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]
