    It's not very good. Its just sort of generic timewasting trash. Do you like destiny and would you rather be playing an even more mediocre destiny thats a realistic 3rd person shooter where guns do no damage? If yes wait for it to go down in price then realize the servers are dead and DONT buy this game.

    Game is so boring. Same missions, same enemy models, your main target is farming equipment in pvp zone, forget about story line. Thank you Ubi for one more piece of s***.

Even though i waited patiently to play this game because when i first saw the E3 gameplay, i decided i will play this game no matter what. Its a good game, the environment, story and gameplay all are good. If you guys ignore the day 1 bugs, you can enjoy this game.    … Expand

    UBISOFT MARKETING LIE TO PEOPLE. This game isnt MMO shooter, its single-player shooter with co-op. Map is too smal! And its only about better gear.

    Dont trust to ubisoft, they lie, all promo videos about "real footage" is fake and you can play only for one side, no "dark-side" exist there.

It is not a FPS RPG (Destiny). It is not like or suppose to be like Gears of War...

    Since it is A RPG, it is about teamwork and coordination to take down Bosses that can "Unfairly" take a lot of Damage.

    This is the FIrst RPG that I have played that once I am in a mission with others, I forget that I originally started to "Gain A Level" but get so wrapped up into the actual fight, that I keep going and have lots of fun and by the time I have gained that level, I forgot all about it because I am just having FUN.

    Then it's the excitement of "What loot will I find?" I have over 20 hours in and I have yet to find any loot higher than Blue (The 3rd of the 5 Tiers). Even though I am not happy about that, It is not that bothersome, since with the gear I do have, I am able to deal with enemies my level.

    Now, I must say that even though I have done the Dark Zone, and it's even more fun and anticipation because I am always on guard in case someone turns Rogue and or If the CPU controlled enemies will prevent me from Extracting my gear, it still does not matter because "I am still having fun!!!" So maybe if I do more Dark Zone stuff I might find some higher Tier gear?

    The Key for me is that the Game is FUN!!!! Even though the Leveling up and Character Interface / Menu could be Way Better, once you figure it out you get use to it then it is easy to do what you needed.
    The Melee is weak, and their are no Melee Weapons! Now that is weird, and one of the reasons I do not give it a 10.

    There were times at first that I thought the PVE Enemies were stupid because when playing in a team, but then I remembered, this is a RPG and their is such a thing as AGGRO - so that is why he ran right past me to attack my team mate instead. Then I even realized that I had some gear equipped that lowered my "Threat Level"...

    There is always something to do. I feel that my level progression is Good since the Max level is 30 and I am at level 18, Dark Zone level 11 and have my Base about 50% rebuilt and 62.50% of the "Main Story" complete! That is not 62.50% of the entire content complete!

    Few more things that I do not like.

    No FREE Guide - Even though I completed the Tutorial Missions, I didn't realize I was suppose to have learned something (since most of what it taught me were things that any 3rd person gamer would have most likely have understood).

    Even though finding someone to Team up with is easy in the Game, why in the heck do I have to go into UPlay to send or accept friend requests? (Or do I just not know how to do it in Game).

    The Que that I have ended up waiting in line for, that usually only happen for me after 6pm my time, so I'm sure it will be worse as more people get the game and especially weekend times. More servers is just the sensible thing to do!!! NOTE: I have never remained in que for longer than 2 minutes.

    I have to say that for a new Online only RPG. The few minutes here and their that I have not been able to play due to Login or Server or Client issues have been VERY VERY VERY Impressive (so far). I got concerened when after after having to download a big patch at launch and then just 10 minutes in the game that I got kicked out and then all Uplay Servers where down, I started feeling stupid for believing in a Game on launch day, but in less than 30 minutes (but it felt like hours - lol) I was able to log back in and have not had any more issues since!

    Since this Game did have a relatively - Short - Open Beta (but since it had one) most people that's interested in this game and have the Equipment to run it, (I'm talking about the PC version). They already know if it is the type of game they want to play!!!

    And there is a ton of random Generated Missions over the Map which dont has to do with the Story.

    If yes to these then this is a solid, solid game. I understand where the negativity comes from but this game has so much going for it and it has a lot of gameplay coming.

    Pros:
    1.) Beautiful, beautiful world... I can't stress how amazing the game looks on the PC and Ubisoft did a great job at re-creating New York City. (I am by no means a fan of Ubisoft. Only games I own from them is the Farcry series and The Division)

    2.) Co-op is very, very fun. I have two other buddies that I plan with and it makes the whole experience great!

    3.) Missions are fun. All the missions are pretty fun. Side missions are okay but is more geared towards getting gear and blueprints. The game is laid out like this... there are regions many regions within the game with different lvl requirements. You jump from one safe house to another finishing problems the neighborhood has and doing encounters to unlock your skills/talents and technology for your base. I would say about 35 hours of gameplay for missions and single player

    4.) The fights are fun. It starts pretty slow but soon enough you will have enemies coming from all directions with snipers in the back, assault/LMG in the middle and shotgunners charging you while grenades are being tossed to blow your cover.

    Cons:

    1.) server issues... this will get better. I actually didn't have any issues lately
    2.) end game is weak and the dark zone still needs some revamping but Ubisoft already laid out 3 paid expansions with content and 2 free expansions

    Bottom line: World looks great. The gun fights feel authentic(some bugs with AI, but still tough at times). One of my favorite co-op games (Please find friends to play with). Lots of promising new content. It is worth the $48 I spent on the PC version download from GMG. I think you can get it for $44.

    To me, it's worth the money. I have already had 35 hours of fun gameplay with friends. The story is great too if you pay attention to it. If you hate loot grind games like Diablo, Warframe, etc.. then I don't think it is worth it for you to get this game. I love loot games so I thoroughly enjoy it.    … Expand

    At this point you could say I got my money's worth and I did, but this game was advertised as an MMO shooter and once you hit a high level, there's no reason to continue playing, because there's nothing left to do except grinding in the dark zone and do repetitive daily missions.

    The game also has some serious issues with cheaters, because so much of it is client-side.

    The Division has unbelievable potential, but a poor delivery in some areas. I still enjoyed the time I played, but lost interest too much to buy any extra content.

    UPDATE: With the recent patches (1.5) a lot of the game's issues have been improved and the game is really enjoyable.

    One of the more rare things to come by in video games, that I don't believe will be replicated for a very, very long time.

    The Division is a beast withing itself. From the first moment you realize the game has started, to completing the missions and venturing deep into "The Dark Zone", I have never played a game where I am constantly amazed at facing whatever happens next. Sure, the    One of the more rare things to come by in video games, that I don't believe will be replicated for a very, very long time.

    The Division is a beast withing itself. From the first moment you realize the game has started, to completing the missions and venturing deep into "The Dark Zone", I have never played a game where I am constantly amazed at facing whatever happens next.

    Sure, the gameplay may be a little bit repetitive, but the developers truly spent their time with making sure that each occurrence in this game is unique and interesting, enough so that even though it feels a little repetitive at times, it truly doesn't interfere with my experience. Believe me, the last thing I want is another "destiny" and The Division really does stand on its own.

    But in all seriousness, the reason I gave this game a 9 is because I thought I had seen it all. I thought The Division was just going to be another game I would pass on after playing it for about an hour. But no. I will be joining back in every day just to see what happens next, and I hope to see you there aswell.

    Breakdown:
    Graphics: 10 - This game truly immerses you with the vast details of real life Manhattan.
    Controls: 8 - Controls can feel a little clunky at times, but usually it can be fixed by adjusting the sensitivity
    Story: 8 - Interesting enough that you would want to do everything, but not as immersive as Far Cry 3.
    Gameplay: 9 - Repetitive, but each instance is unique in its own. Enough missions to last a long time.
    Multiplayer: 8 - The Dark Zone is a beast if you are up to the challenge, and can be frustrating at times, but very rewarding
    Immersion: 7 - Game can feel empty, but most story missions can be played with a match-made group.

    Overall: A generous 9, or a Solid 8

    Should you buy? - If you like RPG's, MMO's, or 3rd Person Shooters, Yes. Everyone else, I would wait until it is on sale.    … Expand

I would call it a good game that should provide a couple hundred hours of enjoyment at least. It's a fun shooter best enjoyed with your buddies. The graphics are butter smooth, and the attention to details like *auto run" are nice. The servers have been solid for me after the release day hiccup. The character skills and loot have depth (still discovering things). This game is not a grinder (Ark Survival Evolved is a grinder). It is a bit repetitive and the bad guys all look very similar. That said, much like in the Rainbow Six Vegas series that didn't matter, it was still a lot of fun to group up with buddies and throw bullets at bad guys. The bad guys are a bullet sponges by I personally enjoy that play once in awhile. Coming from playing ARMA III a military simulator where 1 well placed round kills you and you lose everything and must start from scratch. I found The Division to be a refreshing less serious shooter. Don't get me wrong, I'm no fan of Ubisoft, and the fact that we have to tie a UPlay account to the game (even if somewhat automated through Steam) is lame. That said, reviewing The Division on the merit of the game and separating my opinion from the developer. This game is enjoyable. It has gaps, it's nowhere near perfect but what game really is. If you want to enjoy some co-op shooter play that brings you back to the good ol' days of Rainbow Six Vegas with some additional depth, The Division might be just what you are looking for.… Expand

    The missions are somewhat repetitive, but what RPG/MMOish game isn't.
    The Darkzone Risk vs Reward is pretty good, and adds a lvl of excitement to the pvp.

    I have had some issues with graphics, and falling through the map, but nothing a few resets didn't solve. Did have a few server error messages early on, but seem to have been resolved.
    Matchmaking needs some work, not as smooth as some other games, but it works, just have to be a little patient.

    I will say when you put it on Hard Mode, it is Hard. Which I love.    … Expand

    Utter garbage. Stay clear.

    Same enemies, same boring gameplay, enemies are bullet sponges and headshots does not seem to count more than shots to the body.

The group matchmaking is super easy and makes it very easy to travel to your peers and level together. Some of the missions which I consider like instances in wow... are extremely difficult and with a group you can heal each other and revive each other but if by yourself you start over. So def a game to play with peers. Boss fights are tough.. take thought.. not just run and gun as you will get one shot in cases. You can level your base up which unlucks new skills and perks. There is a so called talent tree which can be dps, tank, and heals essentially. This is the most satisfying shooter I have played in years and by far most satisfying MMO style shooter.

The graphics are fantastic best I have seen, New York atmosphere is really there (I have only been there once but then again I have watched a bunch of movies based in New York).
    The game is not repetetive at all, it is a copy of New York in a realistic setting we don´t go to jupiter or fight in a jungle. But the big missions do a great job breaking up the world with more exotic locations.
    There is a solid plan for their first year that have been communicated (check youtube). The season pass seems to be worth it. (havent bought it yet since I dont have the cash but I will as soon as I have money)

The Division comes into it's own when the cover system comes into play, it really makes gunfights exciting, the loot system keeps you guessing and wanting more, plus the PC version is very solid in terms of features and performance, my only gripe is lack of enemy variety and enemy encounters, would be nice to be suddenly besieged by a group of rioters from all corners of a street.

    Dark Zones from what i played of that game mode takes an interesting approach to the online multiplayer arena in that it promotes teamwork rather than the kill everybody that moves mentality but at the same time also giving you the option to kill everyone in sight if you so desire, it's a really refreshing take on a game mode that in my opinion is getting stale.

    Tom Clancy's The Division is a solid game if you know what you are getting yourself into beforehand, if you are not expecting The Last Of Us quality storytelling you will enjoy what The Division has to offer it is an all round fun game in a very detailed open world New York.

    The Division is a fantastic game. The best character in the game is definitely New York. It is a living, breathing, menace. There always feels like there is something to do, and lots of places to explore to pick up little bits of lore or loot. The Dark Zone deepens the feeling of doom and anarchy. You never know what to expect. Looking forward to many more hours of gameplay.

This game is a melting pot of multiple genres of games and gives off this jack of all trades master of non kind of vibe. The game itselfBefore I start this review there will be a couple of different groups of people that won't enjoy this game. If you dislike repetitive games then you won't enjoy this game. If you don't like PVP you eventually won't enjoy this game. So lets get started. This game is a melting pot of multiple genres of games and gives off this jack of all trades master of non kind of vibe. The game itself takes place in a freshly Re-Uncivilized New York, that has been struck with a virus that broke down the city. Rioters roam the streets and the military can't control the violence. So the government calls in The Division: a group of elite soldiers, in an attempt to retake the city from the gangs. This is where the mission structure comes in. Most of the missions in the game have you going to a certain area, clearing out all the thugs there, fighting a boss, and getting loot. This same structure is used for almost every main mission. I feel this game is best experienced with a group of people that you play through the missions with. Ity doesn't even have to be the same group of people every time but I still recommend you play them with a group as it makes for a better experience. This is where the game being repetitive comes into play. As said the mission structure is almost the same for every main mission And for some people this is a huge problem. If you enjoy left 4 dead then you'll get what i am talking about. The story of the mission changes while the structures is basically the same. Which can really bother some people but as a person who grew up on beat em ups I don't bother it and I thinks it's part of the reason i enjoy the hell out of this game. The division Is a shooter with slight MMO elements and an RPG type loot and xp system. It's clearly built to be like destiny in a sort of way. The game has a HUGE area in which players can PVP in the Dark Zone. You can find better loot in the Dark Zone. (BTW know the command to do jumping jacks by heart.) The way the Dark Zone is set up to assure that you don't get screwed over by someone way higher level then you. The game itself looks beautiful even on the low settings the my 660ti can handle. I had minor problems when first starting up the game but those were fixed easily. Ubisoft is usually really good about making well optimized games. So my final Verdict? If you can't enjoy a game because its repetitive then this is definitely not for you, but if you think you'll enjoy it you probably will.… Expand

    I like the concept of games that rely heavily on a loot system, and Division certainly offers that. It also offers a great detailed city, with pretty graphics and stuff to explore (I mean, you can listen to lost mobile phones for hours alone).

    My main issue with this game is the gameplay itself. The game tries it's best to be realistic but kinda half-asses it all the way through.

    My main issue with this game is the gameplay itself. The game tries it's best to be realistic but kinda half-asses it all the way through. Granted, my impressions of Division might be tainted a bit because I've sunk quite a lot of hours in Warframe last month, the game that has a really vague concept of cover simply because you have no time nor reason to sit in it since you can jump fifteen meters in the air, then glide in bullet time firing akimbo shotguns before impaling someone to the ground with the sword twice the size of you. After that the Division, the game where "take cover" is bound to the LARGEST button on the keyboard by default seems like an unpleasant change of pace. Oh sure, it's meant to be realistic, but did it make the game more fun? Unlike Warframe (yes I will keep bringing the comparsion up) where movement is crucial to your survival, you spent half of your time staring at beautifully detailed cracks in a traffic barrier.

    Guns. While there are a lot of them, they all feel the same (since all of them pretty much fire different variations of bullets). Sure, games like BF4 offer a lot of customizable weapons that fire variations of bullets, but since BF4 is an FPS, the gun always takes the major part of your screen, you see the chamber and reload animations in all their glory. In the Division there's no such feeling. Sure, the guns might be rendered and animated very well, but you see so little of them and the fact that every gun turns into a peashooter if you see an enemy with a slightly higher number next to his health bar does not help. Seriously, Ubisoft, why couldn't you throw in a grenade launcher? There's so much military-grade **** littered throughout NYC, surely there must be one or two M320s in the pile.

    Same problem goes for customizing guns. Yeah, you can put a sight on your weapon, but you will always peep at an unsuspecting enemy with the same third-person reticule nonetheless firing the same hitscan bullets.

    I want to like this game, I really do, and it's not a bad game by any means (except for the atrocious cover system). But it seems unnecessary slow (blame Warframe for this one), and I don't see a single reason it was anything but improved if it was in first-person.    … Expand

    В день запуска вообще спать не ложился, ждал, и тут понеслось...
    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.

    I'm a shooting man at heart, and this has enough meat to satisfy.

    The plot has you assume the role of a paramilitary agent and while while enjoyable, there isn't really a morale system or dialogue choices, just choices in the missions.. But that said i found myself abit confused the first few confrontations with the enemy, coming in quietly and observantly and struggling to come to terms while being in an open world as it is there is no option for stealth nor is it rewarded apart from triggering the next battle.. It's almost a sin in the world of MMO and classes and opens worlds to not have that freedom, a perplexing mistep, lazy even and I believe holds it back. The rest of the game becomes a borderland-esque mission fest.. it's only RPG as so much as picking what you wear and where you go next, and the game world feels fairly alive and interesting, most of all starkly beautiful.

    (An important note: I think Ubisoft and Nvidia should be commended for this well optimised game, my pc didn't meet minimum specs.. lol and yet still it runs beautifully and i have fairly decent experience on low/medium with a late model GTX 570 and 2600k i7 running completely stock)    … Expand

    To preface, this game is NOT for everyone. If you believe this is a twitch shooter in the ilk of COD or HALO, look elsewhere. If you are a Tom Clancy fan, this game is REALLY thin in terms of the Clancy universe and it's use of the license. In fact, I am still not sure why they decided to use the Tom Clancy brand for this game, other then for marketing purposes. If you saw the movieTo preface, this game is NOT for everyone. If you believe this is a twitch shooter in the ilk of COD or HALO, look elsewhere. If you are a Tom Clancy fan, this game is REALLY thin in terms of the Clancy universe and it's use of the license. In fact, I am still not sure why they decided to use the Tom Clancy brand for this game, other then for marketing purposes. If you saw the movie Contagion, then you know EVERYTHING this game has to offer regarding plot and story. However, what does make it effective; and even frightening; is that this is highly plausible today as well.

    About the game, I was involved in the beta process and thought the game was thin and left a lot to be desired. The Rouge system and the Dark Zone were defiantly intriguing mechanics that the game offered and I thought there was true innovative potential to be had there. But after investing a fair amount of time into the game, and having 30 level maxed my open world agent and partaken in quite a bit of endgame content, this game is thin on content at the moment, but a surprising blast to play through. I found myself highly addicted and hooked, minus the repetitive nature to grind some of the supplies for the 3 wings.

    I did buy the Season Pass, but I would recommend holding off on that until the first couple waves of expansions are rolled out.

    The fusion between loot-shooter and open world RPG is both fascinating and interesting at the same time. I can see what Ubisoft had envisioned when developing this game and fleshing it out, but this vision is still a work in process.

    New York being digitally rendered into the game is truly breathtaking, as are the various weather effects used within the game. This game might be a trend-setter for all to come in that department. How you progress through the game is well-handled as well; having to collect supplies to unlock various stages of progression in each of the 3 primary wings of your base; which is the post office located next to Madison Square Garden in downtown Manhattan.

    Without droning on, or spoiling anything; I would highly recommend this game if you have a decent rig and like 3rd person shooters, open world explorers, or RPG progress-ers. If your a 1st person shooter fanatic, this game just isn't for you. Important to note, it is quite possible to beat the Open World portion of the game solo; but you will need to pair up with other agents if you wish to effectively tackle the endgame content. If this turns you off, also steer clear.
    In closing, the loot system is great; very effective at awarding appropriate trinkets for the effort invested, and the story, while thin, is great at setting up the "world" of post-pandemic New York. The factions in the game are well fleshed out and utilized too; my favorite being the Cleaners, who are both menacing to look at, but hilarious to gun down.

    The Divsion is doing alot of things right, the atmosphere is out of this world. The Co-op is so much fun I could be playing it for days without it becoming boring cause you get a sense of achievement in this, specially when in a place called Dark Zone ( pvp ) and the adrenalin kicks in instantly when you are getting shot at by a full group of rogues (player killers.) Never have I seen winter that lovely created and never have I seen physics following that. Its marvellous to watch the blizzard come down onto the city making your field of view very realistic. There are so many small details that makes the game seem that it has been worked on for a while. The combat is solid and I may say that its the best cover third person shooter out there for now. The rest..you kind of need to experience it yourself. It is worth every penny and I recommend that you play this game with friends as the tactical play comes in great in numbers.

    The game has some bad things going for it too but its not game breaking. The character creator is one of the worst things I have seen. There isnt much customization when you first create your character, thankfully you can follow that up with the wide veriety of clothes. But thats pretty much the only thing I would think is terrible. There are no bugs nor hiccups that I have seen.

    This is a great game I think everyone should give a try. Atleast get it on sale cause this is the first AAA title in a long long time that Ubisoft helped in creating that is actually good.

    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.

    A few months before the release I got into that Beta. I hated it, it was clunky, buggy and just overal sad. So I decide not to buy the game, since I'd probably never play it. But soon after, my brother managed to convince me to buy it anyway, so I was like okay what the hell. Lets do it. I don't regret it, even though this game frustrates me at times, but it's really enjoyable.

    PROS
    The overall game play is just really enjoyable to me. I visited New York City once in my life, and its just fun too see the little things I still recognize. I really like the missions, and collecting different appearance items. And nothing is more enjoyable than bragging about a new cool piece of gear to my brother. The game is pretty challenging at times which makes it more fun. The skills are pretty cool, but I do feel like they could have done more. I could say something about the graphics, but I honestly do not care.

    CONS
    The AI frustrates the hell out of me, even though the challenging part is fun. There is just something really annoying about fighting 6 Rikers in front of you and getting 6 other Rikers in your back because for some reason they feel compelled to fight you. Some AI just storm you whenever you in cover and shoot you from the side. Which kind of beats the purpose of cover. I personally don't enjoy the DZ, It's high risk high reward, but right now Rogue agents just swarm the extraction points and wait. And lastly, some missions trigger while walking, and you pull the mobs. Which is really annoying whenever you just want to do another mission. Yes i get that this is an RPG and that's just what happens, but in this game its just a little frustrating. There are still a few bugs, but I'm not going to judge the game on it.

    It looks like they are improving, and I love to play this game, since i'm not paying monthly I don't feel forced to play it. So it's nice casual MMORPG shooter. Which i can generally recommend to people who enjoy these type of settings and games.    … Expand

As Division Agent you have acces to more than 19 active skills, with different modifiers, which you can chose from to cater to you playstyle (Tank/DD/Suppport). Im going to assume that, if you buy this game, you are commited enough to reach lv 30, where the "true" game starts. I'll be explaining that in a bit.
    To keep this review short and easy to read im going to make a pro Cons list:

    Pro:
    - Very fun if you have 1-3 friends to play with.
    - Especially the Dark Zone, the PvP zone of this game, is great fun with a group. There, you and your friends can either become a hunter or the prey, depending on your tendency to kill NPCs or other Players for their Loot.
    - There is a lot to discover in the game world...
    -... and a lot to marvel at. The graphics in this game are stunning if your gaming-rig can handle it (though the recommended specs arent that high)
    - Group play is challening on higher difficulties. The different skills you can chose from actually matter, if used right.

    Cons:

    - The setting of this game aims for a realistic style. Gameplay wise, this however poses problems in the long run in terms of variety and itemisation. Items most of the time fail to induce the craving to obtain them, since visually, they are limited to exisitng guns. While i dont expect guns that sparkle with fire or ice effects, some "oomph" is missing in that department (most of the time, the most unique feature of the highest quality guns is them having a golden skin.)
    - The story is lacking. Most of the time, you're going up against a specific boss in group missions. However, they mostly dont receive much exposition beforehand. So if you finally get "face to face" (its still a shooter, so chances are you wont see their face properly if they are 30m away), bosses will mainly only stand out because they have a name and drop more loot. What a missed opportunity.
    - While there sure is a lot to discover, i fail to understand why Ubi games in general, have the tendency to plaster the map with collectibles. There are more than 140 audiologs and some other stuff you can pick up. However, once you hit lv 30 the xp gain through these become obsolete. While they do tell stories, and help create atmosphere, almost every single audiolog is a self contained, albeit interchangable collectible. Collecting them isnt particularily fun, even as an optional goal. A more mission implemented apporach for those would have been much better.
    - Farming the Group missions on Lv 30 can really get repetitive after some time, since theres mostly no variation how encounters are handled. While weakpoints on enemies change, almost every mission simply consists of the game throwing enemies in your way. A more varied approach with bosses (like in the last mission) in particular would have done wonders.    … Expand

    I love MMOs, so loved games like World of Warcraft and Guild Wars 2 when they were first released; I also love shooters, especially first-person shooters, from Doom II, through Return to Castle Wolfenstein (2001), and to Battlefield 3. So I was always looking for a game like The Division.

So I was always looking for a game like The Division. And the mildly similar games out there now either have bad graphics for my taste, or are just too broken / hacked / or abused by veterans to be playable. The Division does not have these problems; it has amazing graphics that are also well optimized or tweaked that even my friend's old gaming laptop can run it (but barely), and it also works well enough from the first week of its release.

    The Division is not perfect, though. It's definitely the answer to my long-endured gaming needs, but there is huge room for improvement. For that combination of feelings about it, I give it 8 out of 10. My biggest problem with The Division is that crafting relies on luck, just like dropped loot relies on luck; this is one of the strangest implementations of crafting I've ever seen in a game like this. Basically, after going through the tedious process of farming materials, you have to go through the largely frustrating experience of crafting a weapon or piece of armor, one after another, after another, maybe dozens of said pieces, until you can find, not the perfect combination of stats, because that's nearly impossible, but merely an acceptable combination of stats (and there are so many of them). Furthermore, upgrading crafting materials is not done in mass or bulk, but one after another, and you have to press two keys, hold down space and press Esc, every single time for every single piece you're upgrading. That...is not weirder and more stupid than the first problem of dependency on luck when crafting, but it's somewhere out there with the former in terms of giving the player a frustrating and tediously boring experience.

    In short, the much, much needed crafting, because loot is wholly dependent on luck, is also dependent on luck and only luck! In other words, crafting is hopelessly broken in The Division, unless Massive suddenly decides to get sane and allow picking exact stats when crafting, even if the price is increasing the amounts of crafting material required when you're able to specify stats.

    Because of the above mentioned problem, which Massive probably thinks is a profitable and addictive time sink (maybe addictive for masochistic gamblers, but definitely not normal people or gamers), experimenting or changing role in this game is a hopeless endeavor. Because if you really want to specialize as a healer or DPS or tank, then you naturally must be able to tweak your gear and specify every single stat on every single piece, but that's impossible with the mechanic of depending on luck. Accordingly, everyone is DPS in this game. Almost. And it's not fun to try to change because you cannot be powerful enough as a healer or tank with a large portion of your stats that are completely irrelevant to your other desired roles, and can never be changed. You can change (or recalibrate just one stat, no more).

    Accordingly, without being able to experiment and change specialization or role, the game is fast coming to an end for end gamers. Massive is planning an update with “gear sets” in a few days, apparently sets that will help people specialize in things other than DPS, but they're almost all loot or drops from bosses, so again, people are forced to depend on luck or RNG, rather than on the targeted and sure way of farming lots of materials, but crafting exactly what one wants.

    Other than the above, and the need for more missions (dungeons) and perhaps creative types of enemies, this game is amazing and exactly what I wanted. However, I agree with Angry Joe, the reviewer, about the Tom Clancy brand hurting the game; it's definitely hurting The Division. Because as repetitive as they have become, zombies would have been the most mind-blowingly awesome part of this game. Zombies would have added variety, and such different methods or tactics of gameplay in missions.

    I don't think zombies will ever be added; they'r just not part of Tom Clancy's world or brand. But more missions and variety are certainly coming. So if I will stop playing this game and if I refrain from buying the Season Pass, then it will be for one reason: the frustrating crafting experience.    … Expand

    Overall, The Division's MMO aspirations tie its hands a bit and get in the way of its shooter personality and fundamentals. With friends, the flaws are easily overlooked as my friends and I have sunk 30+ hours into the game already between various modes and activities.

It gives you the options to make a character that is not like everyone else. Sure some will be the same and some builds are better than others. I have not seen a build that hinders your ability to get through the game. All in all the RPG aspect of the game is good and enough for me.
    -Graphics: The game looks amazing on my system. GTX780 on maxed out settings. I know this will change depending what card you run and the system. I can only speak from personal experience on my system. Sometime I catch myself just looking at lighting or water/ground objects. There is great detail in most items and structures. Overall the graphics are amazing and I could not ask for more. Enough said!
    -Progression: The games progression flows well enough going through the first 30 levels. There is never a time where you have to look for something to do or grind like in a normal RPG. The missions are simple enough to find and as you progress and they become more difficult as you gain levels. Many people do not like the repetition factor. The main missions do not repeat at all. NO MAIN MISSION IS THE SAME. That being said I am speaking from the progression standpoint not endgame. Yes I know the side-missions are just different variations of the same 5-8 missions you come across. There is enough break in the side missions to where you don’t do the same per area. IE: Water missions, after the first few zones you don’t have to do one for a while. This is enough break for me to not get annoyed with side-missions while progressing. Level progression is seamless, and works out to where you are never behind and have to catch up to be able to move to the next area. Another thing about progression it is complete solo if that’s what you want. I don’t like playing with people all the time so the solo aspect of the game works for me.
    -Combat: “This is where the game shines.” First let’s get the bad out of the way. The enemies are bullet sponges and yes the cover system and be a little clunky. Could you imagine if you killed an enemy with 1-5 bullets and bosses with 6-10 bullets? There would be no point in playing the game. When playing a shooter like this you have to expect the enemies to take a lot of damage. Second the cover system is good probable a 6.5-8 out of 10. I can count on both hands how many times my character has been stuck or messed up in some way with cover. A lot is user error, if you slow down just a little and plan out moves. You can easily cut the time you mess up in cover. With the two biggest complaints out of the way let’s focus on the good things. Pure and simple the combat is challenging and exciting. I have personally experienced multiple time where me and my group mates talked about how intense the combat sequence was. No two combat experiences will be the exact same. There are so many different ways to approach combat that it really lets you handle combat in a new and fun way every time. The cover system combined with the grenades and different character builds is refreshing and really showcases what is great about The Division.
    -What I did not cover: I did not have much interaction with the Dark Zone. I have been in there for around an hour and from what I can see its going to be fun and scary all at the same time. It has a real Survivor feel to it and I am always watching my back. Especially when getting my gear out. I also just reached level 30 and only have a gear score of 145. So I am not sure how the end game will treat me or how much I will either hate it or love it. I have been on the grind for a week so I do have some experience, just not enough to commend on the end game at the moment.
    -Final Thoughts: Overall the game is great for both players who solo and group. Great Graphics/combat. Some things need to be fixed, but overall it feels complete. I have only experienced two glitches so I can’t comment on them as they did not harm my game play all that much. The game is only a little over a month old. Give it sometime and I am sure it will become the masterpiece I know it can be.

Shooting is brilliant, and the RPG aspects of the game combined with the jaw-dropping graphics + sound (I'm not kidding, it looks 1:1 New York) makes this a must-have for looter-shooter fans. It is just pure fun, and the bugs that still exist are quite funny - after one firefight, an enemy was stuck in mid-air.

    Anyway, it's incredibly fun and a finished polished game!    … Expand

    It`s very enjoyable game I`ve put about 35 hours into it so far, I like it while playing solo and in groups, exploration is nicely done with intresting phone call recordings or echos replaying past events leading to the plaque. It isn`t complicated or very deep game but atmosphere and art is just very pleasing.

    A divide in fun.
    The division tells the story about a smallpox pandemic that wreaks havoc on black Friday…
    You’re part of the division, sent in by the US government to assist emergency responders and restore order.
    The game starts in Brooklyn but opens up when you enter Manhattan…
    This game is online only and is absolutely brutal…
    Probably one of the hardest if not hardest third person shooter I’ve ever played…
    If you’re playing by yourself… you’re not making it to the end unless you’re a 360 no scope mlg pro..
    I am not... so I teamed up with a squad the entire way….
    But this isn’t your typical 3rd person shooter…
    There are no head shots...
    Enemies have hp rather than just being vulnerable humans... they’re armored up and bullet spongy…
    I didn’t realize the type of game this was at first so I felt frustrated, only to remind myself borderlands is the same way…
    So this is more or less a 3rd person borderlands with none of the color or humor…
    My Love for the Division slowly grew on me… and I did eventually fall in love…
    But halfway through the game, my love evaporated.
    In the division you can explore the city of Manhattan either alone or with a crew of up to 4 players, there are 19 main story missions in this game that increasingly have a higher level requirement…
    Each mission will give you roughly 1 level.. And you also gain xp from killing enemies, doing side missions, discovering new locations and finding collectibles…
    And at first this feels great...
    You’ll run down the street and run into an encounter and help whoever out and move on to the mission you were heading too…
    You gain your first 5 levels without even trying…
    Then you’re doing mission after mission... killing these insanely tough enemies… picking up their dropped weapons, finding loot and armor..
    Getting supplies to work on the different wings of your base to unlock new skills and abilities...
    Assigning these abilities to your 2 and eventually 3 ability slots…
    It’s so frustrating and so addictive at the same time…
    Coming up with strategies with your teams mates during tough sections..
    Providing health, cover, and distraction…
    This is why it’s important to play with others…
    On your own you can’t be revived… enemies do take less damage... but it isn’t worth being sent back to a checkpoint each time you die to an area of respawned enemies…
    You’re heading into the dark zone to look for contaminated but more powerful loot, killing other players to increase your dark zone level to leave with better gear
    And you’re halfway through the game..
    You’re level 13... The next missions enemies are level 16 no big deal…
    You’ve got your awesome crew... you can handle anything.
    Nope.
    You can’t play missions more than 2 levels ahead of you… and by the way... from the halfway point forward... every single mission is going to be 3 levels ahead of you
    No big deal, levels have been handing out levels…
    Surely side missions and encounters and collectibles will do the same.
    They don’t.
    XP is so insanely slow in this game and I’m convinced there’s only a leveling system here to slow the player down... to make them do the boring side stuff instead of shoot their way through these hour long main missions….
    There’s really nothing else to explain it…
    It isn’t to make you more powerful in battle…
    Fights are just as hard from the start as they are at the end... Enemies level with you…. And most of the time unless you grind with the boring stuff are even 2 plus levels ahead
    And it isn’t to unlock perks or new weapons... because you get all of this from enemies and completing main stories…
    You can replay mast missions on hard mode for better loot.. but it rewards to xp at the end which is complete nonsense…
    Level requirements for main missions kill pacing…
    and the laughably small amount of xp you get for killing enemies which by the way is the exact same you get for killing a boss is even more of a joke.
    There’s not a chance you’ll level up mid story mission…
    It’s not happening you’re gonna be just as weak in the final boss battle as you were going in…
    The combat here is extremely fun though and offers a great deal of variety in its perks, weapons, and mods to make your character feel like yours…
    I’m not sure why they smack you with a wall halfway through and force you to do the fetch quest nonsense around Manhattan
    The division takes some time to grow on you.. And once it finally does it turns into an unfun forced grind. I Give the Division an 8.0/10    … Expand

    First of all, to all the reviewer who gave between 0 and 4 as a score, honesty is not a quality in your personality. Come on!!
    Let's get on to it. The graphics are awesome, the sound environment is not too bad. You can feel that you are in a city left in ruin. It can get repetitive to hear the same scream sometimes but, it is not the worst sound environment that i heard in a video game.

    At the beginning, the game is trying to insert you as an operative part of the Division. I was a little bit disappointed when i realize the weakness of the character creation. It's frustrating when you're entering a Safe House and you encounter a bunch of clones. Ubisoft should have made a character creator solid as the Skyrim one in my opinion. After that, you are eager to build you char and unlock the most of the Skills to be able to try them. After a while, it's getting boring and repetitive.
    The Dark Zone is not a bad idea but, it takes a bunch of low life to destroy the fun and that's what you usually meet. I don't care to be stripped of the items i successfully found but after that, give me a break!! Go away! Anyway. The Division do not deserve a 0 or a 3, it deserves a 7 and over. Ubisoft did not reinvent the wheel with The Division but it's a nice wheel ;-) Maybe in the future, they will innovate by listening to the users.

    An important game in game history. It takes many aspects of gameplay and graphics to a new and up-to-date state. For what it is, this game is amazingly stunning. The option to build teams quick and spontanious is one of the best ideas ever (and the mechanics behind this). Iam addicted and now other games can build on that new level of design.

    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]
