    Exactly as advertised, this is another entry in the current rash of online-only loot shooters.

And this is coming from someone who returned the first Division despite buying it for only $5. The sequel has a lot less spongy enemies, a better loot system, and a crazy amount of content available.

    The environments are very detailed and help prevent the missions from feeling too repetitive. Of course, all these missions involve you going to a place and killing a ton of enemies while pressing square a few times throughout. But the guns felt great, and the skills were really fun, so I happily played through the main "story" up until the same exact locations were being recycled for new missions, only with "tougher" enemies. That's when you really have to play co-op unless you want a tedious challenge.

    Not a bad experience for $2.99.    … Expand

    Matchmaking for Main Missions is okay. Matchmaking for side quests is bad.

    Built for Advanced Players (Solo is for Advanced Players)
    Bad Enemies (Walk up on you in full armor blasting a "one shot" cannon OR worse a sledgehammer)
    Bad Combat (Enemies take multiple shots to kill to the head and you can be downed in one or two)
    More Bad Combat (Bullet Sponge Bosses and mini bosses that feel artificially Enhanced)

    While I like the challenge of beating my head against the same wall until I get the accomplishment of winning. This game feels artificially difficult to slow down the player. I'll play it until something good comes along, but won't waste my money on the cash shop or further character appearance options.

    It has a long way to go for the casual gamer that has other responsibilities besides this game imho.    … Expand

    Despite having a blast slugging through D2 (and consider myself a fan of the original) there is definitely that 'something missing' with this iteration to truly separate it from the new york outing... The Washington based story was just not as impactful for me and sadly the last gen and weirdly plastic looking human characters really took me out of the story experience noticeably marring the quality of the campaigns cutscenes.

    D2 shows me how in future publishers like ubi could truly benefit from allowing their devs time and breathing space to create something far more meaningful and transformative in the ever busy gamespace instead of going for the cash-grab sequels.    … Expand

    The Division 2 is just more of the same. One big expansion pack. Don't give it praise just because Anthem was terrible. There is nothing new, fresh, or exciting about this game; nothing that cements it as a legitimate sequel. It's a whole lotta been there, done that.

    The Division 2 is at least as good as its predecessor, but it doesn't really do anything new.

I still love the vast and well-designed inventory, the large array of weapons and their personalization, the beauty of the open world (Washington DC is well represented), and of course the fact it is made to be played with 3 friends. It's a must have for coop lovers, just like the first iteration. It's extremely addictive and despite its defaults, it for sure made me want to get that best exotic weapon and to complete everything that is completable. On the things I also liked, I noted a pretty large endgame and the servers that have never shown any problem. The fact that the updates of year 1 were free is also a good point.

    Gameplaywise, the game benefits from a few improvements and new features here and there, but basically, it remains the same thing as the first game. A thing I don't really like in this game is that more emphasis was put on the different factions of the game than on the actual sickness itself. I think that using this virus thing to create a tense and interesting atmosphere could have been done way better. I found the same problem in the first game, but I feel it's more severe here. The story wasn't that interesting, I would have really liked it better if an emphasis had been put on the actual sickness more than on the "villains". Even the collectibles failed to convince on that regard. This can sound dumb, but take Control's collectibles for example, they are adding value to the story of the game and motivate you to read them, even though they are basically text with missing words!

    Same goes for the Darkzone. In The Division 1, I really could feel the tension that goes with it, but in TD2, I kind of missed that feel. Is it because I am not new to the franchise or because they made it less good? A bit of both I guess. To add on the Darkzone, I regret the fact that looting there has almost no point since it doesn't bring any exclusive or highly interesting item in comparison with the regular story. The result is that when you go to the Darkzone, you don't really have any particular interest to grind for.

    Another default of this game is the quality of the sound, the gunshots of the vast majority of the weapons feel stale, and there is a TON of sound bugs. Sometimes I wouldn't hear the sounds of the open-world anymore, sometimes only the voices or gunshots, sometimes nothing at all, and the worst is that sometimes I would hear that constant high-pitched noise.

    Still on the negative side, I really hate the competitive PvP playlist. It is not balanced at all. I understand that players who grinded for a good loadout have to be advantaged somehow, but the way they did it for this basically results in competing in a deathmatch where the beginner can throw rocks while the extreme majority of opponents (since the game isn't new) destroy newbies with their insanely powerful guns.

    Nevertheless and to conclude, I can confirm this game will keep coop shooter players happy for a good amount of time and that their money will be worthily invested considered how low its price currently is.    … Expand

    Washington's not as fun as New York, who would've thunk?

    More of the same, but this time there's even more, more of the same - with a meaty end-game that has you shooting and looting until you eventually ask yourself... what am I doing with my freakin' life?

    If you're playing with friends online then there's fun to be had, if you're playing solo... don't.

    Good action, nice balance. Gets better with friends, but can easily be played alone. Nothing overly groundbreaking, it just does what other games do, but a bit better. A good romp.

    Can have some truly grand firefights.

    Buggy... discos are frequent (ever couple hours) for me and loading times can be epic, however, a few hours with friends flies by.

Weapons feel good, TTK is a bit on the higher side, but just at a point where enemies don't feel too spongy. However level scaling when playing coop is a bit off. Instead of scaling the coop partners towards the squad leader, every enemies is scaled towards the highest level player. This puts lower level players at an unfair disadvantage because higher level players will breeze through the missions with booth stats and experience on their side while the lower level players have neither and often end up dropping within a split second of exposure. Other then that, the missions themselves provide some nice challenges and are varied enough to not feel like a grind. Overall this is a good coop experience that can captivate you for many hours.… Expand

    If you liked the first division then you’ll probably enjoy this one too.

    People giving this 9s and 10s need to get their head out of their arses. Red Dead 2 is a 9. God of War is a 9.
    Maybe it’s because fans of shooter looters have been getting nothing but crap these past few months, so the first game that comes around that’s actually decent seems like the second coming of Christ.
    and people giving this 1s and 0s just need to grow up and stop carrying on like pork chops.
    Even fallout 76 for all the flak its coping (and rightfully so I’ll add) is still a 3 or 4. Maybe even a 2 if Bethesda really F****d you over.

    Personally I don’t see myself sticking around for the endgame but it was perfectly adequate time waster. If you’ve got a group of friends that are looking blow some sh*t up together then I’d recommend this game to you. If your a bit sceptical just give the game some time to settle in and pick it up when it drops in price.    … Expand

    El juego está y estará en constante evolución hasta que Ubisoft lo decida.

    Pero si se percibe un juego que sacaron con demasiada precipitación, por no decir inacabado.
    Lleno de bugs, algunos de ellos graves. En resumen, solucionan un error pero salen tres mas.
    Y así a sido desde su salida hasta el día de hoy. Aunque, hay que decirlo, se nota el esfuerzo de Massive por tratar de complacer a la gran mayoría con cambios, algunos de ellos oportunos.
    ¿No hay modos de juego re-jugables como lo fueron Subterraneo o Supervivencia?

    No, no los hay. Y no los habrá ¿Por qué? Por que el juego todavía se encuentra en su primera fase. Vamos, que todavía no hemos visto el final definitivo del juego principal. Esos modos de juego o falta de contenido del que tanto se queja la gente, vendrá, pero en forma de DLC.

    En fin:
    El apartado visual es bueno y la recreación de los monumentos de Washington D.C son notables.
    Se percibe en todos los rincones el estilo grecorromano.

    A diferencia del 1 con las misiones llamadas "Incursión", aquí se incluyen "Raids" que otorgan "Loot" especial que no se puede conseguir en el mundo haciendo misiones "normales". Por cierto, en estás "Raids" no hay "Matchmaking". Y para poder hacerlas tendrás que conseguir, por tus propios medios a jugadores que deseen hacerla. Con lo cual, a mi parecer, a sido una de las decisiones mas estúpidas.

    Y no hay nada mas que decir. ¿Adictivo? Si, y demasiado.

    Washington DC is beautiful, as expected from the engine. But it's still a city of locked doors and samey landscapes, unfortunately.

    In fact, the main campaign and the sidequests are worse than in the first game. There is more shooting and more shooting (did I mention more shooting) but quite a bit less story. No Times Square shootout, no good personal stories to be found and traced.    Washington DC is beautiful, as expected from the engine.

    In fact, the main campaign and the sidequests are worse than in the first game. There is more shooting and more shooting (did I mention more shooting) but quite a bit less story. No Times Square shootout, no good personal stories to be found and traced. Fewer echoes, seemingly, too.

    Another thing The Division 2 severely lacks is the proper power fantasy (well, so did the first game, . but I'm reviewing the second one here). You grow up in levels and gear score, but the game stays relatively the same - one headshot for a basic enemy, a few mags for an elite, twice the ammo supply of the entire squad (in headshots, no less) for an elite bounty tank on the highest difficulty (and what an entertaining 10-15 minutes it is... not). Your skills have pretty long cooldowns and aren't particularly gamechanging, but you always die in a few hits because the game helpfully progresses the world tier and the enemy levels to always keep you challenged. There is little flair in everything too. Diablo or even Borderlands this game is not.

    What remains is a competent (but aggravatingly bugged as of March 29th) game. It doesn't crash and you rarely get stuck, but there's a truckload of small things - tutorial voice lines being played every time you leave a group and enter base of operations, interact key in some situations being hard bound to F regardless of your preference (but not all the time, for that would be consistent). Some items being unreachable unless you consumed the content in the right order, et c. It's an AAA product with a paid public hype demo called a "beta" for some reason.

    One may be tired of playing Warframe, Destiny, Anthem or whatever else, but Division 2 doesn't bring enough content and variety to justify a full price yet. Maybe in a year or two, with extra DLCs, assuming there is a player base still.    … Expand

    It works better than anthem. But the gameplay is incredibly boring. I won’t give it a horrible score though. It’s a loot shooter and for what it is I guess this is my ceiling for games like this. The loot drops pretty consistently so that’s a plus. No cohesive story to speak of, literally the same thing over and over. Shoot stuff , loot stuff. Nothing they can do to fix it for meIt works better than anthem. But the gameplay is incredibly boring. I won’t give it a horrible score though.

    Tom Clancy's The Division 2 has thrown its hat into the ring for being a possible 'Game of the Year' contender for 2019. The post-apocalyptic Washington D.C. is such an eerie site to see, and Agents can roam around solo or in groups to complete missions and earn better loot to upgrade their characters. With more content well on the way, the base game is still packed with heaps of stuff to do - and the huge variety in gear types and stat boosts, modifications, and skills means that 1000+ hours can easily be put into this title over the course of the year. The only bane to these sorts of titles is the 'always-online' internet connection that is required, which does remove some parts of the gaming population from being able to play it, unfortunately.

    The Division 2 is easily the best of its type; it has the right balance of fun, challenge, dopamine loot drops, and sweet graphics that all but guarantee I’ll be playing this one for a long, long time to come. If you haven’t jumped in yet and think this might be for you, hesitate no longer - Ubisoft has absolutely nailed it the second time around.

    It all adds up to one of the finest games multiplayer role-player shooters out there. This is how gaming with friends is meant to be.
