    The Division 2 offers an average storytelling experience that fails to captivate players. The gunplay and game mechanics are reminiscent of typical looter shooters, though the excessive grind often becomes tiresome. The intriguing concept of the dark zone is marred by its punishing mechanics, causing players to lose everything and not welcoming to newcomers.

The intriguing concept of the dark zone is marred by its punishing mechanics, causing players to lose everything and not welcoming to newcomers. The game's lack of new player friendliness is most evident outside the story campaign. Additionally, a high internet ping is essential for competitive gameplay, which can be frustrating for those with unstable connections. The overall experience is further dampened by frequent crashes, hindering an otherwise potentially engaging experience Expand

    When I talk about cooperative games The Division 2 is without a doubt one of the best games to play with friends, best of all are the dozens of missions and events ect that game has one of the games that I have the most hours of playing, without PVP because I only play rooms private with friends all sorts of games for obvious reasons,,but just the great game is one of my favorites too

In many cases this isn’t a bad thing, however the market has been flooded with these generic shooters since the release of the original game. The Division 2 does nothing to separate itself from the pack, and the era of cool themed military style shooters with the same generic gameplay started on the Xbox 360 era and died on the Xbox One era. If this game came out 10 years ago, I wouldn’t think it’s that bad, but today, I find this game so uninteresting that I don’t have the words for it. The environment isn’t that exciting, the world itself feels super empty, the lore feels like they barely tried, and mix that with some really bland shooting gameplay where you dump all of your ammo into a bullet sponge enemy running around in a tank top, and there isn’t much there. It’s possible to have some fun for a couple hours due to the loot system, but it just boils down to slow marginal improvements. It’s a lot less bad when played with friends, but there are far better options out there. Expand

    This game is the worst AAA game I have ever played is soo boring.

    its a farmer shooter, plot, direction, voice acting, missions are awful. Main missions feel like side quest you go trough a room of bots clean it , earn loot and repeat

    I give 1 point for the graphics

    INSANELY UNDERRATED!!!

    I gotta say I’ve been shocked at how hooked this game has me. If you like looter shooters like Borderlands this is your **** It’s like the game Destiny wanted to be I feel. The gear is actually good and the cover-switching just WORKS. Pro tip: customize your HUD and turn your compass wayyyyy down. Minimize almost everything and just go!

    This is the game that really got me into multiplayer. It does get repetitive at times, but great in short bursts with friends. The customization aspects might turn some people off, it's actually more looter than shooter, but if you dig into the mechanics of putting together a build with skills and attributes that fit your play-style, you'll gladly sink those hours in!

Инновационная система перемещений-укрытий. Неплохая шутерная составляющая. Сюжет, ну скажем так себе, но это была кооперативная игра поэтому сойдёт. Прошел всю. Полазил в темной зоне, эта часть игры мне не понравилась. Но общие впечатления от игры остались положительные.
    И вот вышла The Division 2. Конечно ждал. Но разочарование начал чувствовать уже в демке.
    Игра не изменилась, на мой взгляд, вообще от слова совсем!
    Ниже опишу то, что лично мне показалось отличным от оригинала.
    В игре поправили шутерную часть, чуть чуть. Улучшили, наверное, картинку (играл в обе игры на PlayStation 4, разницы не заметил совсем). Добавили в игру какой то бесполезный крафт, (пол игры просто собираешь всякий лом, сумки и т. д.).
    Сюжета как не было так и нет.
    Сеттинг разрушенного Вашингтона мне не понравился, всё какое то зелёное, весёлое. За что воюем? Жратвы в избытке она растет на каждой ветке, да что там растёт, благодаря этому крафту еда буквально валяется под ногами. В Нью-Йорке чувствовалось, что борьба идёт за выживание, так как зима и жрать нечего.
    Прокачка оружия стала какая то ватная. Если в первой части я точно знал какое оружие я хочу, за чем и чем я его качаю. Здесь же у оружия изначально столько разнообразных, иногда просто не понятных каких то дополнительных фишек, что глаза разбегаются и чем выше класс оружия тем больше этих фишек. Какая фишка за что отвечает понять трудно, чем одна лучше или хуже другой, хз. Только начинаешь улучшать одно оружие, как находишь более прокачанное. Для чего качал? Оружия какая то уйма, думаю не меньше чем в Borderlands. Зачем?
    Да появились всякие блокпосты которые надо захватывать, какие то секретики и допки (не помню были ли они в оригинале), короче всякая мелочь.
    Все прочие изменения чисто косметические.
    В общем игра, ну лично для меня, не показала ничего кардинально нового. Да мне было интересно играть в это в 2016м, но в 2019м опять играть в тоже самое, при том более растянутое.....не интересно.
    Резюмирую.
    Понятие: "тех же щей только гуще" работает только с играми премиум класса, такими как BioShock. Так как игра Division достаточно нишевая, это не сработало. Атмосферу убил цветущий Вашингтон и да, чуть не забыл, теперь в игре 80% всех врагов и дружественных нпс это бабы. Ёлы палы это уже не война, а войнушка какая то. Ну как женский бокс, смотреть смешно, но воспринимать всерьёз, невозможно.
    Мне скучно погружаться в этот маразм. Очень скучно. И кажется серия скатывается в канаву к той же Ghost Recon.
    Может если бы не было оригинальной The Division этот сиквел бы и выстрелил. Но он был. И с этим ничего не поделать.
    Очень жаль серию.

    An enjoyable looter, shooter with tight mechanics.
    Gets repetitive, probably a bit to bit and drawn out.

    Good game, but make sure you have other stuff to play.
    The constant updates are great!

    Yo al inicio este juego lo consideraba malo pero después de retomarlo pasado un tiempo me vi lo bueno que era. Yo procede hacer una review completa dividida en Historia, jugabilidad, música, gráficos y bugs.

    1)Historia: la historia de the división 2 pasa poco tiempo después de la de the división 1 contando lo que paso con la gripe del dólar en Washington DC. Lugar donde se basa todo el juego, Washington acido capturada por 3 facciones hijos verdaderos, hienas y marginados. La historia en el juego no es lo mas importante ya que muchas veces te perderás entre tantas misiones que hay que cuentan algo diferente.
    2) Jugabilidad: este es un juego Shooter RPG multijugador que tiene mucha variedad en PvP y PvE tenemos:
    - Conflicto: 3 modos 4vs4
    - 3 Zonas oscuras: zonas PvP y PvE masivas de 24
    personas
    - Raids : PvE de 8 personas en una misión grande
    - cumbre: modo PvE de 100 rondas divididas en pisos

    En cuanto a las armas y modos de jugar tenemos:
    -armas de todo tipo rifles, fusiles, subfusiles, escopetas, pistolas, etc.
    -Las habilidades: objetos SHD que puedes usar en batalla (drones, escudos, torretas, etc.)
    -los especialistas: habilidades que se consiguen al nivel 30 que mejoran muchos tus estadísticas, te dan una habilidad exclusiva y un arma muy fuerte
    - atributos que cambian o mejoran estadísticas

    En este juego es algo lento donde simplemente no te puedes ir a pelear sin pensar, tienes que usar todo tu arsenal y algo de estrategia para no morir

    3) música: este juego tiene buena calidad de sonido en cuanto a disparos, voces y música pero la música del juego en peleas esta presente y es buena pero se escucha muy bajo solo me di cuenta que estaba cuando desactive los demás sonidos

    4) gráficos: este juego tiene gráficos muy buenos que nos presenta entornos muy detallados con una iluminación muy buena su único defecto en este punto es que efectos como el polvo o la niebla no se ven tan realistas pero si ignoramos eso ni nos daremos cuenta.
    El rendimiento del juego es muy estable y jamás me a dado una bajón importante de fps en batalla

    5) bugs: como ya sabemos Ubisoft es Reyna en esto y como no podía ser de otra manera the división 2 también tiene:
    - pantallas de carga donde es juego se queda a medio cargar y queda todo feo
    -paredes en donde no te puedes apoyar
    -no poder moverte después de una cinemática
    -etc.

    Ojo esto es aparte de los puntos pero Ubisoft puso una tienda muy fuerte cobrando por skins, bailes y envoltorios donde se obtienen comprando monedas o abriendo cajas también venden 1 DLC de new york, pase de año 1 y pase de temporada

    En general este es un juego con muchas cosas buenas por las que yo considero es un juegazo

    Let me lay it out from my perspective, starting with the bad:

    The Bad: 1. A lot of grinding, and it is not rewarding. 2. Looting is not rewarding. 3. Crating random gear is not rewarding. 4. Complex and confusing gear system; some lower-level items are better than higher-level items and nowhere is it explained why. 5. Soundtrack not as good as the first game; kept asking myself,

    4. Complex and confusing gear system; some lower-level items are better than higher-level items and nowhere is it explained why.
    5. Soundtrack not as good as the first game; kept asking myself, "where is the music?"
    6. Players are forced into repeating the same missions for the same item to craft some gear, and in the end -- that's right -- it's not worth it.
    7. Grinding for secrets, ie the Owl thing, and getting a huge disappointment in the end. Yay!
    8. Story and factions are forgettable; while I was playing, I kept thinking of the factions in Division 1.
    9. Dark Zone.... *sigh*

    The Good:
    1. Insane level of detail; graphics are amazing.
    2. Level design overall is fun.
    3. Shooting and attack system is enjoyable.
    4. The heroic mode for levels is the way this game should be played.
    5. Tactics and strategy system to finishing levels is very enjoyable.

    Unfortunately, the negatives always outweigh the good. The grinding for gear and looting is what I found the most ridiculous thing in the game. And there is a lot of grinding to finish the daily missions too, let alone to get good gear; try fining the gold necklace -- hint: you won't find it even after a week of searching.

    Conclusion: 5 out of 10 is generous.

The missions are split up into main, side and support, so there's plenty to choose from. The game comes alive when you play with others, although the solo runs are equally fun. Teamed up with others and running through a mission., flanking the enemies is a lit of fun.

This could be changes the creators are unhappy with from within the game. As a fan of the franchise being a veteran player from The Division, I pre-ordered The Division 2 knowing I would be expecting simular gameplay and control over the previous title. This came true as I haven't stopped playing. Vast improvements are noticeable from minor details in the world and mission level designs. The soundtrack for this sequel is far more recognisable and Division sounding and keeps the re-playability of certain missions in tact because you feel the need to go back to listen. It's taken to long to review because I can't get away from the game. Not until a new title in the franchise arrives. It's a 10/10 from me. Expand

Не обязательно, потому, что вещи которые вы можете выбить при прохождении без цели, не уступают вещам, которые нужно выбивать часами. Да и те можно выбить из контейнеров (НЕ ЛУТ-БОКС), которые можно получать везде и регулярно (в разумных пределах). Сама система вещей и их характеристик, которые влияют на геймплей, развита нелинейно и одновременно понятно, что в игре этого жанра очень важно. Также несмотря на жалобы, что в игре нечем заняться, в Divison 2 есть много разных локаций и миссий, экспедиций и побочных заданий, которые рассказывают свои сюжеты, связанные с общим, просто их не все могут или хотят искать. Также радует наличие разнообразных модификаторов сложности, которые открываются после прохождения основного сюжета. Поэтому локации, которые раньше можно было проходить одной рукой, параллельно читаю книжку, то после некоторых модификаций, даже команде слаженных агентов с хорошими вещами придётся попотеть.
    Подводя итог: TOM CLANCY'S THE DIVISION 2 - игра про экипировку : Основной вашей целью после прохождения основного и дополнительного сюжета, будет сбор экипировки. Но сам сбор интересный и если вам не надо бешено дёргать мышкой во все стороны и проявлять постоянную активность во всех областях тела, как в какой-нибудь CS:GO, то вам должно понравиться. Сразу хочу предупредить, что Division 2 стоит (я бы даже сказал нужно) покупать с дополнением, без него вы не сможете полностью окунуться в игру после сюжета (игра с дополнением часто продаётся по скидкам, поэтому можно урвать их за 700 - 1250 вечно деревянных, в зависимости от скидки). Также стоит отметить, что в одиночку игра может наскучить, поэтому советую проходить с друзьями, так будет всегда интересно!

    The Division 2 is a game I simply cannot grasp. There is a decent amount of polish and sheen to this 3rd-person shooter with RPG elements, but from what I have experienced, it is all a veneer - beneath the surface, there is an offensively and egregiously bare-bones, milquetoast video game that feels mechanically similar to a free-to-play MMORPG than a compelling experience. And while thereThe Division 2 is a game I simply cannot grasp. There is a decent amount of polish and sheen to this 3rd-person shooter with RPG elements, but from what I have experienced, it is all a veneer - beneath the surface, there is an offensively and egregiously bare-bones, milquetoast video game that feels mechanically similar to a free-to-play MMORPG than a compelling experience. And while there may be a phenomenal multiplayer experience here, I will admit that this is not the reason I picked up The Division 2. And without that reason, I feel no motivation to play this game at all.

    Despite having stated that this game possesses RPG elements, that is likely a misnomer in hindsight. Little about the new guns or armour you acquire throughout the game feel impactful. While I certainly noticed when I had an underpowered weapon, I found it hard to feel like I had accomplished anything when I switched to a level-appropriate weapon. Perhaps this sounds overly subjective, but rather than feeling more powerful when I got better gear, I felt less powerful when I didn't. And that sucks.

    Perhaps the most stunningly outrageous letdown about this game, beyond its lack of a feeling of achievement, was the unbelievably by-the-numbers story. It manages to find an astonishingly bland middle ground between vagueness and cliché that result in having zero narrative reason to persist throughout the game. I could not name a single character, let alone a single defining detail about this story, beyond this: "A virus has spread throughout America and caused anarchy, and now you are part of a paramilitary organization attempting to fight to protect people." While a narrative is not the only reason one picks up and plays a game, nor does a game need a compelling story to be excellent, this approach to the story felt stunningly barren.

    The Division 2 represents what I see as a growing problem within the video games industry: An over-attentiveness to extremely incremental progression (in order to fuel microtransactions), and a pivoting away from uniqueness or artistry. While this game has undoubtedly satisfied some people, I am not one of those people. I picked this game up for a total of about 5 hours, then promptly ignored it until I realized the amount of hard drive space it was taking up on my PS4 - I then promptly deleted the game with almost zero regret. Whatever the angle is here, Ubisoft, I'm sorry - I don't get it.

    This is Division 1.5 AT BEST and same-old-crap at worst. The story is just as bad. The gameplay loop is just as repetitive & honestly off-putting for most people who have no idea how looter-shooters work. Trust me, a lot of people are new to this especially to console players. it is super difficult to learn and remember all the mechanics and every single feature this game offers when it is super un-intuitive. Tutorial is horrible, many missions wont even trigger when you want to play solo, and some on-map actives would just disappear while you are on the way to get there. GPS breaks every 10 min too. The whole "liberated zones" is pointless when enemy AI can capture zones back instantly after you die. So does that mean gamemap resets or somehow moves time ahead every time I die in free roam? The hold-button for this action things are also tiresome. It's just a shame that nothing really important was improved on Division 2 compared to 1. Yes you can get now 4th weapon and specialised classes, yes now gadgets are more interesting but is it really that hard to improve simple but super important mechanics like .... JUMPING? Or decent cover system? Just copy Uncharted! Or any other game that figured it out years ago. The number of clutter UI and HUD is also messy. I dont know what I was expecting from Ubisoft, but I guess they learn very slow.
    There COULD be enjoyment here, I just could not find it, I did not manage even to do all main missions on the map because of how frustrated I am with it. Just utter disappointment. Don't waste your time and money.

    Washington D.C. has fallen. The whatif scenario (which kinda happen 4 years later) is very engaging. As a MMORPG player I'm happy to see a console compatible version come to light. The action feels good, the RPG progression feels rewarding. I spent hundreds of hours in this world and is one of my favorite games, along with the first game.

    The sequel improves on what the first game had to offer the combat is more action packed and the story continues to build on what happened with the first game which is now set in Washington DC 8 months after the events of the first game.

    There is a lot more variety with the missions and side missions this time around and there is a lot more weapons to choose from. the dark zone are also back in the game but those are the multiplayer parts of the game.....which I got no interest in playing that part of.

    The game has it's minor issues but there is enough to see and do on there to keep players busy. I enjoyed playing this game it improved on most of the stuff that made the first game fun for me to play and it's a game I would suggest people to play especially if your a fan of the Tom Clancy games.

    - Pesa más de 100GB: ¿Por qué pesa tanto si tiene unos gráficos tan feos?

    - Framerate espantoso: Es tan malo que no creo qüe llegue ni a 30fps. Para mí un juego enfocado en mecánicas de disparos ya sea en primera o tercera persona que no corra a 60fps me parece inaceptable, es algo que se siente inmediatamente.

    - Interfaz desastroza: A mi no me molesta que un juego tenga mecánicas complejas, por ejemplo Nioh es muy complejo y sin embargo aprendí con mucho gusto sus mecánicas a través de los tutoriales del mismo juego. En el caso de The Division 2, desde que inicias el juego prácticamente te invade con un montón de avisos fastidiosos (como los de los FIFA) por todos lados que incluso te aparecen mientras estás jugando y cada menú que abres a su vez hace que aparezcan muchas opciones que uno no sabe ni que hacer y lo peor es que es que la pantalla principal se contamina con elementos del mapa, es decir, si tu marcas un punto en el mapa, el punto aparecerá en la pantalla principal y no en el minimapa y la ruta para llegar a ese punto aparecerá trazada también en la pantalla principal, por lo mismo esta termina contaminándose con marcas y líneas lo cual resultado muy incómodo para jugar.

    - El gameplay es horrible: Necesitas como 10 tiros para eliminar a cada enemigo. El juego no es un shooter, es un rpg disfrazado de shooter.

    Chasing new gear and loot is very satisfying. Every time I got stronger so did the mobs. As in more of and better equipped. The gunplay gadgets and combat is engaging. I am in it for the looter, shooter and exploration parts. It has settlement upgrade trees, unlockable player skills and gear crafting options. So it all adds up to a nice package. I finally got to a comfortable level of playing. Using a mostly the suppressing LMG and old style battle rifle combo. With using a turret and drone support while trying to keeping my distance from the enemy. The again up close and personal the shotgun can be a lot of fun.

    I was soloing this until I get bored or it beat me. I am not really into the co-op or PvP side of live service games. Got it super cheap and the perfect type of long form game to kill the time in Lockdown Pandemic. Ironic that this game is about a virus gone amok hey?

    Story, characters and dialogue I don't give a crap about. The NPCs' are not believable or realistic characters anyway. The spawns are kind of cheap in some places. Trash mobs suddenly burst out of doors that the player has no access to. These cheap spawns have put me in some really bad positioning, oh well.

    Hitting level 30 I opted out after the fireworks display cut scene. I just couldn't go through another level of grind like that any time so. Maybe I will come back to it someday, but not anytime soon I thought. Then a couple of weeks later I was back in for the ride again ha ha. So after the fireworks everything amps up with lots more intense firefights and some new surprises. Now with all hell let loose on the streets the game ended up being way more fun. I am on the third leveling tier out five so far.

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.

    The Division 2 is probably as good of a game as you are going to get with the limitations of this genre.

    Let's get the elephant out of the room. The Division 2 plays better than Destiny 2. While Destiny has extreme jumping, The Division has extreme tactics. You can win many fights with good positions and smart use of special abilities. My favorite special is a turret that acts a second player when I am running through missions solo. Pop that turret on a tall structure before a fight and watch it take out low level enemies and do some considerable damage to high level enemies. A team can wipe out an army with good planning and positioning.

    The Division 2 also has better a.i. than Destiny. The a.i. is still not very smart, and enemies will always choose to run suicide missions in small groups as part of the game play. Compared to Destiny, though, you never see the a.i. running backwards up stairs or refusing to engage beyond a predetermined zone. Bosses in the Division have way too much health, but none are given a one-shot attack or an area of effect boss stomp.

    Matchmaking in The Division 2 works great even a year after release. The middle-game missions can be difficult to find players. People buy into the game for $3 like I did and then stop after a few hours. Anyone who keeps playing will focus on the end-game. Reaching the endgame opens up players to the ultimate joys of matchmaking and playing with a group at a moments notice for any activity. This was great for me because I bought into The Division 2 so late that none of my friends are playing it anymore. (The upside to paying full price at launch is enjoying all the millions of people who are playing at the same time and same level as you.)

    Visually, the game is appealing. UI elements are plenty but well placed to not take up too much of the screen. The setting is an excellent 1:1 recreation of the Washington D.C. area. If you have been there, it will feel familiar. My one complaint is the amount of trash, totes, fences, and other junk littering the area. Surely there would be garbage in the streets during an Apocalypse, but the people of D.C. would have to truck in garbage from out of town to junk up a city so much. The game also has no driving sections despite the streets littered with abandoned cars. (Maybe driving will be in The Division 3.) Fighting in museums and historical landmarks is at times clever, and I appreciate the thought that went into the design of this game. I would love a tourist mode like Ubisoft had in Assassin's Creed: Origin.

    Now the bad. I don't like all this leveling. In the early game, you have to level-up to take on new missions. I was utterly bored early on with little in the way of guns and abilities and playing a generic third person cover shooter. As new abilities and weapons open up, the tactical game takes form. In the mid game, the joy of playing to outweighs the drudgery of inventory management. The end-game has more leveling up, and numbers go as high 600 for "gear score". This is the same idea as light level in Destiny, and as with Destiny, the numbers are meaningless as enemies scale with the player. This is where the drudgery of inventory management starts to outweigh the joy of playing. The game becomes a hamster wheel of finding higher level gear, dismantling old gear, and repeat.

    The missions have a few set pieces that bridge the divide between a quality of Call of Duty campaign and a generic defend the hacking process from Destiny. The missions eventually become generic kill lower level enemies before killing a boss. By end game, The Division 2 has run out of new areas to fight it, and you fight new enemies in old areas. The lack of vehicles is a hindrance, and you never have the diversity of gunning from an APC or dropping from a helicopter. These limitations are endemic to this genre of games and why a Division or a Destiny will never be as good as a Halo or a Call of Duty.

    Some caveats. As mentioned, I bought this game for $3. A lot of people bought it for $3 from PSN or perhaps less as a used title from Gamestop. Before I bought this, the only Division in my life was the beta for The Division 1. I hated the bullet sponge enemies. This is a Tom Clancy game and Tom Clancy means realism. I 100% believe that The Division would be better as true tactical shooter, but after 5 and 1/2 years of shenanigans in Destiny, I am more forgiving of shenanigans in The Division. That being said, I will only go so far playing The Division 2, as the hamster wheel is only so fun for so long.

    Great premise, poor execution. Riddled with bugs and features that don’t work as intended, the campaign will be mildly entertaining for a day but after that the endgame is just horrible, this includes the original game and the warlords of New York expansion. The community around the game is elitist and toxic. If you are a solo player you will find this game doesn’t care about you. It isGreat premise, poor execution.

There are aspects of the game that you are forced to play pvp in order to achieve certain benefits. They don’t fix bugs that have existed for over a year and the developers get testy and hypersensitive when you call them out on it. Often times banning chunks of the community for showing them what’s broken in their game. An absolute **** Expand

    There are way too many bugs! I love the division loved the PVE content. Warlords was awesome great to go back to New York.. my issues lie within the lack of caring of the development team. Every time something is fixed something else breaks. Instead of pleasing the die hard fans.. a ban hammer that banned many players who did not use glitches, I shouldn’t be getting an exotic everyday IThere are way too many bugs!

I love this game it’s all I play but there are soo many issues and they need to be fixed or I’ll be swearing off this game for good with or without a division 3 Expand

    This game, when played with friends, is a truly excellent experience.

    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.
