    The Division really just should've been called The Dissapointment.

    The end product is nothing close to what was shown at E3, in true Ubisoft fashion. I'm not sure who's dumber here, me for buying yet another Ubi-rip off, or Massive Entertainment for linking up with Ubi and releasing this utter anti-climax of a game..

    The controls (PS4) however are not good. Imagine steering a tanker ship, that just ate Taco Bell on the munchies. That's sorta how then player character feels like.

    Anything but the story missions are pathetic repeats. Release hostage, defend thing, get a brown hat as reward. Yellow hat available as DLC for just 300USD and a kidney. Go Ubi!    … Expand

    - A hefty amount of unlockable story lore and optional cut scenes that are actually amazing.
    - Incredible graphics and character animations.
    - Surprisingly memorable soundtrack that does an amazing job at not sounding repetitive.

    Cons:
    - Clothing doesn't offer any defense perks until they release Survival mode.
    - Underground mode is a solid DLC add-on but offers no instruction on the steps to access it.

    This is an unbelievably underrated game. It was difficult for me to think of any major flaws. Many people complain about the bullet sponge tendencies but it was never something that bothered me. And remember, it is an RPG after all. This has become one of my favorite games of all time and I really don't care how anyone else feels about it. This game is my ****    … Expand

Bought the game for sale on the PS4 and let it download for 4 hours, then I get a quick opening montage to let me know there is a viral epidemic and society has collapsed in New York City. I'm one of a group of elite embedded agents in place for just such on occurrence? Quick tutorial on taking cover and shooting, then I'm dumped in a safe house with what looks like other players running around and some npc trying to sell me something and that keeps telling people not to walk away. Ok, quick cut-scene where I"m "another one" then I'm off to do some generic mission. I got to a place where I'm supposed to go to Manhattan, but I can't. There's nothing else to do. Looking at the door to Manhattan I apparently have to wait 16 hours to 'copy files'. Nothing shows up as downloading on my Playstation, are they telling me I have to leave the game open and running for 16 hours?

    Anyway, from the 5 or so missions I did get to do, it seems like a less interesting near-future WOW. Get a little dialog if I'm lucky, then run for a hundred yards to get somewhere where I hear 'Warning: Hostiles". Shoot said hostiles and walk up to a glowing box with the medical supplies, food, or whatever (they all look the same). Apparently those were bad guys, but it seems to me they could have just been normal people like anyone else, just trying to survive. So I kill all them and steal their food or medical supplies to give it to someone "who needs it more". Only I don't even get to do that, I just get a "mission complete" and some xp.

    The trailer and reviews led me to believe this would be a deep and interesting RPG with a story where I get to be a hero and make a difference. What I got was a basic cover shoot-em-up with "bad-guys" that might not really be bad, but eat bullets like it's their last meal and keep coming. Oh, and I get to use my "UPlay" account which I setup for a Battlefield game years ago and never wanted to have to touch again!    … Expand

    The Division is a pretty fun game with good gun play and the co-op is really fun.

    But the problem with it s the fact that it gets boring after 20 hours of game play and the story in not good at all.

    A medium game.

Do you like to play the same 3 strikes over and over in destiny but instead call that "endgame content"?

    The Division is a very hard to play game. I hate those checkpoints, when you die and have to go back from let's say 0,3 km or more to the place you died and start again to kill lots of lots of cleaners. It's annoying.

    Widely considered one of the biggest flops of the year, the Destiny killer that this game was supposed to be never really recovered from poor endgame decisions and poor ideas that they tried to mush together to make a competent.

I personally enjoyed it but, having waited 6 months to play it, the world is basically a ghost town at this point.
    Gameplay is your standard 3rd person cover system. There are a decent amount of weapons in game to find and use but there's nothing that really stands out. The world itself is decent. I personally don't know anything about NYC but it looks like they got everything right. The biggest problem is the Dark Zone area. Basically the PVP area that you're forced to play to do and get anything in the end game. It's very tough, very demanding, and makes me want to stay away but I know I can't without getting the best gear. However it's Ubisoft's lack of foresight into what should have been the future of the game that killed it off. The game is basically on life support right now and they just tried to release an update patch to fix alot of the gear issues and things that turned people off from the game. However, with only 1 of the 3 expansions that have been promised being released so far, this game may have already had it's eulogy written by that awful Dark Zone decision.
    It's a decent game but could never have lived up to the hype. I personally enjoyed it but only to an extent. I won't buy the first xpac that game out and I certainly won't buy any further xpacs that come out in the future.    … Expand

    The game as an interesting ambiance, beautiful too. The game play is good, fluid and simple. I did not understand the story, the form of development of the missions are strange too, the need of multiplayer is an obstacle that can be boring sometimes.

    They activated me, a Division agent, in the world's darkest hour. The time had come. I left my wife and child behind, and headed for the nightmare that New York City had become. I didn't know if I'd ever see them again. I had my orders.

    My mission? Simple.

    Pros:
    + Incredible details not just on the graphics, but on the sound. It has a dynamic night/day cycle, and even climate cycle.
    + Details to the minimum. You can hear the echo that makes a dog and a pigeon when flying on a snowy street, people fighting over food, dogs pissing and living their day, baggage bags stacked on the corridors of abbandoned buildings, and one thing that personally liked a lot that got me immersed, when doing sidequests i got into this IT building, and saw at guy desk, a picture of his wife and daughters at Paris.
    + Fun campaign and story, the one that you go completing by getting the audios, drones, and stuff arround the map.
    + Fun gameplay. You can craft, fight, personalize your character and gear.
    + Lots of loot.
    + After completing the campaign (30+hrs). you still have tons of fun on the Dark Zone wich has its own mechanics).
    + A game that can be played Solo or with a Group of friends.

    Cons:

    - UI could do some improvements. (Wich are coming on the 1.4 patch).
    - Unbalance on the Dark Zone. (Also coming on the patch).
    - Some secondary misions can get repetitive.
    - Had some crashes during the game that got me restarting the game.

    In general terms is a very solid game made by ubisoft, got me immersed all the weekend playing and doing all the sidemissions and stuff. Tagging along with some random guys to try some difficulty missions and discovering the ruined city by myself. Watching my steps because you never know how powerfull some enemies arround the corner may be. And apreciating every detail that the developers did put on the game. 9/10.    … Expand

    The overall feeling of the game is that it's a strong foundation for something really solid, but knowing Ubisoft, that won't happen. I'd compare this to Destiny at launch and even the months after. The visuals are seriously solid for the current gen. The game looks great. The shooting and cover mechanics are simple, but smooth and appropriate for this game.

    However, there's not really anything to do. Sure, there are tons of side missions, but they're all just the same 3-4 grind missions you find in a typical RPG. None really have any soul to them that make the city feel like a living, breathing environment. The main missions and characters are pretty underwhelming. Nothing stands out about them. If you're looking for any explanation of what's going on in the plot, don't look for it. You'll be disappointed.

    The DZ is also broken, with higher level players stomping all over lower level players with near infinite health bars and impossibly overpowered weapons. Also, this is some of the worst character customization I've ever seen in a game that calls itself an RPG. It's not a huge deal, but the clothing options mostly feel the same.

    Overall, I don't think this game deserves the hate or praise it gets. It's a very average game overall with a lot of disappointment and broken promises, but still some fun to be had.    … Expand

    The Division taught me a very valuable lesson about gaming; a game that has a definitive end (like a song, a movie, or a book) will leave me wanting more and reflecting with happy memories of a great experience. But a life-sucking POS like The Division or Destiny eventually wither into resentment.

    Saying that, in all fairness I can't rate it any lower than a 7... even if I can't stand the damn game now :)    … Expand

If there was a prize for mediocre we'd have our winner.

    The game starts off in a promising way. Virus - tick, good graphics - tick, lots of weapons and kit - tick. Unfortunately it then starts to reveal it's true colors.

    Grinding and bullet sponges, that pretty much sums up the game. The game doesn't scale up in difficulty, the enemies just morph into super armored bullet sponges. You'll be making multiple trips to ammo crates just to take down a single high-level enemy (this is even worse in the Dark zone, where ammo crates are non-existent). In order to stand any chance against the impervious foes you'll be grinding for XP and dosh, but then you'll max out at level 30 when the progression system throws another curve ball. Your rating now depends on the level of your gear (which often doesn't equate to its usefulness), so you'll need to equip sub-standard gear sets just to get a decent gear score!

    You'll now be a millionaire but all that cash won't buy you d***. Instead you'll now be grinding for Phoenix credits, which are rationed like pitiful pocket money, to buy any better kit. You'll be replaying missions over and over again just to get these precious coins. Oh and the much heralded incursions have the most boring design you could possibly imagine - They're just large open areas with swarms of yet-more bullet sponges.

    And then there's the "Dark Zone". This could have been the big fun part of the game but it's actually more boring than replaying missions. More bullet sponges and the added "excitement" of any other player turning rogue and taking you out at any moment - genius. Oh and you loose XP for bleeding out, and can't revive yourself without a long walk from the nearest respawn point - Yawn.

    Let's just throw a few more logs on the fire:

    - A pointless animation when you open an ammo crate that means a queue forms when you're in a multiplayer mission. WTF?
    - An impenetrable skills system that makes no sense, and little difference to your performance.
    - Other online players appearing in safe houses but nowhere else. Why?
    - Too many objects you can hide behind but can't shoot from.
    - A kit system that favors armor over firepower.
    - The inability to fast travel to side missions so that you use up your ammo tackling random mooks before you get there.

The experience I had up until I reached level 30 was, no doubt, spectacular. The graphics, the gameplay and the great sense of progression always kept me playing the game. But once you reach level 30 the majority of the game's problems start to shine. It's unfair to say that though, as Ubisoft have released many updates in response to fans' requests, and personally I think they've done a great job. They've added new content to the Dark Zone, new weapons, new gear sets, a new score system and plenty of minor improvements.

    Where to start. I've put in over 450 hours on the Division. Most of that time spent in the Dark Zone(the PVP) area. The story itself is very intriguing but how it's fleshed out isn't the best. Missions are very repetitive. Leveling from 1 - 30 was actually quite fun.

    And then you hit level 30.

    So now in order to accomplish anything you must venture into the Dark Zone to get better gear. Be prepared. You will run into a steady stream of higher leveled, better geared players that will kill you without a second thought. Not for your paltry drops, but for your currency and for **** and giggles. The best part? When you get jumped and killed by another player YOU lose XP, money, keys, and any items you might have gotten.

    In essence Massive/Ubisoft has gone out of their way to make a game that actually rewards people being online bullies. It's not uncommon to walk out of the DZ after a few hours and have less XP than when you started and absolutely nothing to show for your time there.

    That's part of the problem. The major issue is with Massive itself. This crew of developers has no clue what they want to do with this game. The only thing they have consistently done is ignore their user base.

    Things are regularly nerfed without any prior notice. The game is FILLED with glitches that can be exploited to your advantage. In order to get anything of note accomplished in game, you need a group.

    The graphics are bland and have an amazing bluish hue at all times. NPC's have maybe 6 skins between each faction. So there isn't much variety.

    Hopefully if you purchased the game you weren't stupid like I was and bought the season pass. This "season pass" is an absolute joke. Your reward for spending the extra money? 5 crafting materials a month for the first three months. Just now has Massive implemented bi-monthly "events." These events are nothing more than killing 6 - 8 enemies and getting a supply drop.

The game is not fun. Lots of time spent running. After about level five average enemies take about 6 headshots to kill, let alone "elite" enemies. Loot drops are unpredictable and useless. The leveling up and base improvement systems appear to give you lots of freedom, but ultimately you just unlock everything and choose between three special powers. Story missions can take up to an hour and may devolve into you waiting in cover with your cursor in one place, waiting for the enemy to pop up, shooting him, taking enough bullets to almost kill you, and retreating to heal. God help you if you join up with another player who is a dumbass and keeps getting himself killed, because once he dies, the game will leave you alone and stick you with multiplayer enhanced difficulty. Auxiliary missions, required to upgrade your base, are painfully repetitive and unrewarding. The character attributes aren't well explained, so item equipping is sometimes a total crapshoot. The PvP aspects of the "dark zone" are a total mess but are capable of providing some fun.

    Perhaps most irritating is the game's online requirement. You encounter chilling moments where you shoot enemies endlessly and their health does not go down, they will stand still as you move around, and you suddenly realize you're in the middle of a lag. When the game finally comes through, anything could have happened. That is, if the game doesn't just crash and send you back to login.

    Despite all of these complaints, you will keep going back to the Division. Something about a shooter RPG with MMO elements will tickle your gamer scrot and you will want to play. I hope you have a good internet connection.    … Expand

    Well, let me go and play destiny again...The division just feels so bland if you already played Destiny. It is not bad, it just lacks excitement and awe. It is, however, still fun if you play it with your friends, however, there are better alternatives out there. Rather spend your money on Destiny or Overwatch. I think even Warframe is a better experience.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Division is a game that takes place in manhattan totally destroyed because of a virus that caused total chaos in the city .
    You assume the role of an agent of the secret organization The Division . The customization of very bad character , making you put a character that has any there.
    The feedback of the story is good, but does not develop .
    The gameplay is good , but the aim is heavy and with little accuracy. Physical is good to a certain extent . HP 's character and enimies are based on Level .
    So sometimes you take to kill them    … Expand

    First thing that i said, when i saw the game, it - What the ****?
    Let's start from best one - Graphics.
    For me graphics in The Division - the biggest downgrade in game industry history. In 2013, on E3, these prics from Ubisoft revealed very beatiful graphics, somebody even thought, that this will be an revolution in game industry history. But, this is Ubisoft, so you now what happend.    First thing that i said, when i saw the game, it - What the ****?

    Gameplay.
    Lets keep it short, so:
    You with and your friends killed a lot of bots, and when you met a real players...
    They killed you. Gameplay.
    And maybe, maybe you will kill them in next time.
    So, my score is 0.    … Expand

    To start off with, the game could be better... It's not "amazing" or the second comming or christ or some **** but what it is, is fun. It also has a great gear progression feeling that only other games like wow have given me before.

    It won't win converts to the genre and the plot is problematic, but The Division is a handsome open-world offering, spiked with treachery. [May 2016, p.81]

    That's the essential nature, and essential problem, of The Division's underlying structure. It's asking you to hunt gear with no tangible reward in terms of what you can do, how you do it, or what you look like doing it. [May 2016, p.108]

    It builds a strong foundation on the gameplay front, offering up rewarding combat and simple skills, but doesn’t follow that with anything substantial, being content to let the standard end game grind and excellent-yet-stressful PVP try to cover all the questions its writing leaves you with.
