any1 having issues with ps5 edge controller on pc?
Finished DUA legendary on team if 4 at end screen it said we did -ve damage??
first time?
Yea
but yeah it's very common. it's just due to how high an integer can go in the game before it wraps back down to negative
Oh this is a overflow thing
for DUA you don't even need to do 4 man for it, solo is enough to make your damage go negative
yes it is integer overflow
I have so far been unable to do solo legendary
yeah don't worry about it, I'm just saying the solo HP total is enough to make it go negative
It's harder in group
💀
Sir my damage has never overflowed when I grouped with u
it's okay just use my shock striker build don't need no carry ggs xd
Alright i have about 12 exotic caches from variou sources lol
pls donate some to me
XD u probably have more stuff than me
I still dont have a momento and few other good weps
U will always need more its about knowing when is it enough
so are our main charecters gonna be useless when seasonal chars are out or whats the deal
not enough information yet
they will explain later, not sure if it's later next week, or later one month from the actual update
Where's the "there's not enough information yet so I'm not going to overreact"?
Good point, ty!
Sir pls donate to the poor
BRO I FINALLY GOT IT MOMENTO AHHH
Survival mode for the whole season…no thank you
I dunno if it's an overcharged descent talent rotation thing with things like striker and meta pieces not available it's DOA if all of that is available what's the point of regrinding everything?
They really need to explain this properly before any PTS, their first mistake was announcing it in a 5 minute video without giving us some examples
Is the game still active
yes but it's still quite slow
worse countdown: 4 people disconnected
What's the health of elite rc ta ks on legendary? Tired of getting bombed in 2 seconds
I didn't know we can vote on discord 
like glue is so fun
i be using it rn on my strikeres
farming for weapon mod part so tiresome
doing control point then chances spawn rogue agent more bothering me
what build u using
i have sniper hotshot HH
not too bad
yeah its boring to farm 100+ blueprint
im farming pass rn and its getting boring
no rogues spawn tho, even tho i wanna farm rogues
rogue agent spawn on control point 3
Consider it an XP farm first and a blueprint farm second
or 4
Even if you ain't getting the stuff you want that SHD is going all the way up
im doing cp4s with 4 directives
not always, there's chances
whole map is almost green and the only rogues i see are looting a walmart
everytime i capture cp3 then have reset again every 10 second
Control points will do both
Farm the choke and reset after each clear, fastest method, although wait until xp is fixed
that's what im doing
Fastest method, challenging with all directives
the choke control point, using sniper hotshot killing and capture, rinse repeat
im not looking exp farm but weapon mod parts
literally like only that method :/
choke is aight but i feel like nest is quicker
i just closed the game LMAO
Ah yes because having stacks mean I only get a 1.1 mil shot when it should've been 18 mil
DUA is pointless
Fairly certain it's in DC
i don't see the nest control point
do u know where the haunted house cp is
nvm i found it
i know that area, has mounted minigun
but i don't feel safe going there when Rogue agent spawning
ngl i farmed from lvl 1-70 on cp4s today and ive seen literally no rogues spawns afters cp clears
The good thing about Rogues is that they scale to +1 your group size, so solo you'll only ever fight 2.
If you don't need it donate it
Every little helps
have to sort item out for that
Or extract them if they're max rolled
i have not a lot max stats in library
No you just mark as junk and donate all junk
Idk, does rogue agents has their own difficulty? I mean, I was shepherding in hard difficulty and felt like they're too sponge.
Easiest way to deal with too much loot from farming:
- clear out your inventory beforehand. There's no reason for it to be anywhere close to even 50.
- follow this method:
Keep if needed > Recal Library > Expertise > Junk > Sell.
They're named enemies so a little tougher
Not excessively though
AI rogue agent is annoying
theyre fun af
maybe not hotshot build cause u need determined proc
Nemesis works flawlessly 🔥
it took like 5-8 shot or more to kill them
and i can't shoot them when they throwing their toy at me
I run a dread edict build these days for farming so it's just a matter of spamming their head
at the choke i go high ground, last time i died by incinerate turret on low ground
Dunno, I usually run healer when shepherding new players. But this time I was running striker but I wasn't expecting that hp.
Could just be group scaling
remember running 3 player total then having like 4-6 rogue agents
and the health bar glitching out
4 Rogues if there were 3 players.
max is 5 rogues
last run i use oxi and sticky bomb build take while to kill 2 agent
I remember getting 5 rogues after 2 convoys (possibly 1 elite) in a single cp
That was a memorable session
did you got fucked?
We like to refer to those as a "clustertruck". Good times.
Nope, we beat them 
XP city
It's like when you come across a battle between 3 NPC factions and a group of JTF and then just watch the chaos.
you where in group?
Ya it was in ny
i love getting convoy, supply, patrol, and cp4 aggro all at once
and open world rogues
We were 4
i like to see group faction war
play choke cp3 repeatedly there true son spawn flank at my sides
like one guarding, roaming
or random elite heavily armored GL and some allies
near the choke
Do you only get cards from named open world enemies?
Pretty much yeah, and they spawn every 30 minutes.
same rate as Rogues in Summit actually.
In all seriousness, so do I. The absolute chaos is pretty fun.
Btw, can you still get stalked by hunters after getting all their masks? I believe it only happened to me once solo, but when I was doing some bounties with randoms they appeared twice in a row.
stalker hunters are always there I believe they're just rare to come by
^
I got all from dc*
I never see them 😔
So you have to have all the masks?
yeah occasionally your HUD will flicker and you can catch a glimpse if you look hard enough
once you get close they poof though
Looks like I need to grind the masks too
if you can oneshot them they drop a high end lol
Yeah, they spawned in a smoke cloud a top of a building
There is no correlation between getting the masks and seeing those Hunters.
Twice
nah totally random
all masks is for the chests
Sorry meant I have them all, thought that was the question.
also maybe the hunter axe trophy I don't remember where I got it
All dc hunters reward
ah
The one with blood on it is from a seasonal event of some sort, but the other one is yeah, from that.
Is it still true you need to do a regular DC run without the skip to WONy to get the bounty trophy? Only thing I’m missing
And I’ve done sooooo many bounties this point
from the description I assume you just launch a bounty from each safehouse
You’d think 😂
via the bounty board though
Yeah I don’t think you can do it from the menu
I’m 99.99999999% sure I’ve done that. I gave up on it a long time ago after trying and reading it was bugged
I think the way it worked for me was that I had to do all of the area bounty bosses when they came up. After doing so many projects and whatnot for the area. Again, it’s been a while.
yeah I think they should have doubled down on more relevant content
not basically recycling, at least somehow made better
I begin the game lol any know french discord servers for this game
3 BTSU gloves from 3 Exotic Caches.
the game is telling me something.
time to don future initiative
Never know, maybe ubisoft will listen to us for once 🤣 ... vote in my poll and if it gets enough traction maybe they'll listen. Worth a shot, and I feel your pain man. 🤜 🤛
be hivemind the game said?
Is the team responsible for Trello board kidding? They put here on Discord in news message "The Information Board has been updated with the latest issues", yet still no mention about the ammo bug? Or Bullet King bug?
What bugs are those?
no mention of ISAC being a POS wristwatch in bug fixes
Unfortunate
Wish the remove the weapon dmg choices on spec tree and just make it 1 15% dmg so we dont get limited by only 3.... but then again the amount of stuff that needs fixing already it probably never happens
It would be nice to just be given a flat bonus damage across the board from it yeah
The team has hinted at a full spec tree rework, I assume that it's coming with the DLC if at all.
separate from the one that got canned?
They've mentioned that after they announced the spec rework was cancelled?
Cus i like ar/mmr/shotguns/lmg and smg and prefer gunnner spec so now i rarely use lmg/smg because of this
"delayed until further notice" i believe was closer to the wording.
The team are clearly aware that the Spec Tree's need looking at but like, a lot of other stuff does more urgently.
Or just make it possible to select all of em and having to get the points for it to do so im totally fine with
spec rework as far as i remember got canned in favour of new endgame rework
Yea thats how i remember it aswell. But thinking to just increase the amount of points able to use per spec should not be to hard (but then again i have no real idea and simple things often turn weird here)
I’d rather a flat weapon buff or remove it. Changing loadouts on the fly is nice, I’m not going back to the White House to change the weapon type buff.
Exactly, i would use alot more different guns if the all had the same 15% dmg increase and didnt require me to manually swap em cus on other build i might need the swapped away dmg.... so i hope i will happen in not to long
At Kent/Expedition, do you only get the daily loot at Mastery?
in warlord of newyork
by financial disctrict is there a charging bull
like the one irl
landmark inaway
If it's missing then it might be copyrighted, like how the cop cars say the wrong acronym and the CDC is the DCD in Washington.
there's actually a few bulls around the world, fun fact. The one near me is in Sydney.
damn, the charging bull is such a staple there tho, like im at where it should be but idk if it got moved etc for lore cuz the hurricane
It doesn't appear to be halfway through a building, so it's unlikely it was moved.
trademarks gonna trademark. You do what you can.
Does std div2 WONY edition come with level 30 upgrade like the div 2 WONY Ultimate does?
Yes
So I think the fragile armor might be bugged, although this was happening before the latest update. The stacks of reduced armor get removed when I get downed, but don't always disappear when I use an armor kit to remove them, as stated in the description of the directive. Not sure what to make of this, unless I'm wrong.
Yea, it's been bugged for years
what a fucking nightmare day i got
it aint easy being rogue
for myself is easy
Rogue life is hard
that my life is hard being rogue
That's why I'm blue
and not easy decided ur next life
In my next life, I'm going to be a toaster
and ur wish is become?
you can make toast now, we can do that so all humans can be toasters.
That's crazy talk
?
damm randomly got merciless drop
I wonder if the Dev's are going to respond to the community about seasonal characters?
been using that recently not bad with the new gear and brand set along with the ninja bike.
something something twitter post about communication later is what they said
I really hope they see the backlash on seasonal characters
When seasonal content is not new content.
Hope everyone's having a great weekend gaming
Re experiencing something for little to no gain in a progression based system is a waste of time.
dumb kids everywere omg

is there anyone here 25+ want to play i need help with hunters tnx
why 25+? Is that an age preference?
yes
Hey Sniper.Wolf
Hey Saph
hellau wolf
How do I get the wrapped mask?
buy it
Ahh got it
oh thanks, I hadn't checked if they even mentioned it.
I would be fine not using my main character, having to go from 1 to 40, fine ( as long as i can use my builds from my other characters or stash once i get to 40 )
Dread edict, good or bad? Got one today
decent
very stable and can stack up lots of bonus armor and not have to reload if you can hit your shots often, not a hard hitter
since meta for snipers is hotshot + determined for easy one shot builds that just hit teh body, the gun is not popular
Bugs and crashes are back. Crashed twice today at the end of Manning Zoo in legendary when the boss spawn. This is ridiculous, I've spent 4 hours for nothing. Group server is not reachable. F' you Massive, and all the rookies over there in Romania, and Ubisoft as well! I'm sick of this BS 🖕
is the ''See No Evil'' head apperal still available ingame?
If you can't buy it from the store by itself, then you'll likely have to wait for the bundle to return/the item to be individually added.
From what I recall, it's not there by itself but I'm only like 80% sure.
The bundles are time-limited yeah.
If it helps, the free stuff you get from the Apparel Events often ouclasses most of the cosmetics from the Store anyway.
same goes with limited outfits?
Yep, same rules as the store bundles.
Anything fancy worth real money is time-gated.
play a while and you'll get enough Textiles to buy a lot from the store for free, you can make some pretty great outfits with even just the appearance mods on your gear.
@hallow trench - where is your poll? I'll vote on it. This seasonal character concept is insane.
well if u lucky u can get but if i like i missed then its over gg
@tropic star You're looking for #lfg-td2incursion-pc
Good luck Agent 
Rivens how ur day was today?
To anyone from Massive or Ubisoft that may be reading this forum, if you are done creating new content for my main characters (lvl 40) then I'm done playing this game. It's that simple. I've got 4,600 hours in this game, SHD Level 14275, top 1% in all the stats except PVP and all that will be for nothing if the only way to play new content is to start a character at level 1 and raise them up. I hope Red Storm and the Division 3 team are smarter than this!
Yeah, no, they don't give a (...) on what's going on in here
been alright, Rogue, been alright overall.
is there a way to access expertise levelling for your current equipped gear like opening the tinkering menu, i find that annoying to have to go to the expertise menu and look for your gear everytime
did they patch the max role thing?
@sullen canyon No patches since the main one as of now, they don't tend to roll out single-issue ones unless they're massively game breaking.
Big rolls for newbies is probably not "game breaking".
works
Going to try this to see if it will pull it down... but its here @shut basin
Holy moly! a shotgun that slows enemy movement speed??? hooray! they were so fast to begin with!
Div1 Seeker gearset.... 🙂
give us B.L.I.N.D
Whats the fastest way to get the D50 to craft the exotic pistol. Or is there no quick way?
countdown on target loot pistol
des français ?
this stuttering is debilitating
Man i miss BLIND
B.L.I.N.D>Banshee's Shadow
Classified lone star with double big all.... that was fun
banshee best one of the best outfit too
banned
I miss taking a lot of bullets without dying with a 10k stamina classified nomad
hi all did I noticed correctly that control points are broken after last patch? still keeping resetting when log out from game
Yup
nice 😦
Are you trying to get the backpack trophy or something?
Why does close to max expertise.on a build cost 195 exotics ☠️
How do you even increase expertise level? I currently over have 3 levels..
By getting gear Proficient
You donate pieces of the brand/weapon in expertise, or you use said pieces and gain experience that way. So if you aren't hurting for materials, you can donate your junk toward expertise.
After you become "proficient" in each category/type/etc it is maxed, allowing you to now add expertise bonuses toward the proficient piece.
The expertise bonus requires materials for each level (cost and type of materials increases or changes the higher the bonus).
Currently for you, you can only add a bonus 3 times with things you are proficuent with, as per your expertise level. (There will be a shielded star on the pieces you are proficient with) So for me, I can currently only get a 14% since I have expertise lvl 14.
It used to be double.
yo guys i see this apparel some people have that looks like a towel all over their body or some kinda loose hanging cloth
its black and stuff, was wondering what it was an how to get it
You might mean the Recruiter Outfit, which is not currently available and was real-money only.
it has a kinda poncho thing.
Okay, anything I have upgraded so far has a shield with a 3, so 3%. I'm starting to donate things more instead of dismantling everything for materials, although I do need polycarbonate again
What's your shd lvl atm? If you're below 1.2k you shouldn't be focusing on Expertise that much.
A good way to look at loot once you reach Lvl 40 is this:
Keep if good > Donate to Library > Donate to Expertise > Junk for scrap > Sell for credits.
Shd 252
yea it looks like that, sad it was money only 😦
My library is close to done, and I primarily junk for scrap. I've only upgraded the guns I use the most to level 3, that's about it
What Riven laid out is the good approach to it. I would only add deconstruct pieces when you start to need some more materials. Just do it as you need really. Expertise is meant for late late game honestly due to the costs to upgrade at higher levels.
Like I'm at 14, but I have only bothered going up to like level 10 or 12. When it starts asking for exotic components, I pause to level it up, unless I am upgrading pieces/builds that are truly complete for me.
Sorry to interrupt. Does anyone else have this issue where you can't go back to NY when fast traveling to DC at lvl30?
@atomic bough Makes sense, I'm probably just going to build up materials, complete the library, and make sure I have credits in the bank. I will revisit expertise at a later date. Thanks for all the info!
I would simply die from insanity
Had this idea for a rocket variant of the drone:
- When deployed, the drone will follow you and open fire at any nearby target with miniature rockets that can cause bleeding.
- The drone will crash into a nearby target and explode once it expires or is canceled by the user.
How about a seeker mine you throw like a baseball pitcher that kills anything instantly
Isn't that just called an impact grenade?
Call it something cooler
If you insist...
Hyper-Velocity Seeker Mine
Good enough
Previous candidate was Rocket-Assisted Seeker Mine, but that wouldn't mesh with the existing designs.
if costs were never reduced, that would be close to the exo cost for 1 item maxed
gear not worth the upgrades. just some weapons and skills that are used a ton
ceases to exist
Have they nerfed the XP on ALL missions since the update? It seems that going from 30 - 40 takes a hell of a lot longer now.
Had that today, but a logout and login fixed it... Ik why you're doing WONY by the way 👀
wink wink
Project XP was definitely cut, as both the summit and donation project used to give a levels worth of xp each (700k).
Can anyone help me with the General Anderson mission?
gonna want to use #lfg-pc to find groups
Lmao I realized that after I sent it. 🤣
all good, a lot of times people dont realize
also try backup calls in game, usually people trying to level shepherd rank so pretty active
Okay I have but I’ll keep trying thanks @full zinc
anyone know where to farm carbon fiber?
BT areas/control points
thanks
And inclvaded missions
im running low on carbon fiber lol
Lmao same I need to get more for the free cache
I'm having trouble with this current manhunt, where are these breadcrumbs ANNA is yapping about?
@oblique bluff I can help out, but using a mule. Already did manhunt on main.
I just looking for an explanation really, not used to having anna in my ear
stupid question, does ravenous shoot twice per click so it counts as two hits?
it counts as 2 yeah
guess thats one way to not make the new rifle gear set shit
Everyone German here?
Nein
n
Anyone finding their control points keep getting reset on logging out of the game or playing descent?
apparently a known bug on the trello
I actually love this for cp farming atm
I hate it cause it means I have to keep doing metro ruins and god I hate that
Its such an annoying control point
ahd farming or
blueprints farming
no more blueprints to farm :S
so shd farming
shd farming thats a positive, cause u can just log out and log back in
i still find reset cp faster tho
So now if we craft on a new character we will get ban cause Massive made a mistake with the crafting god roll station?
I severely doubt bans will be handed out
definitely not, its not game breaking
It's literally unavoidable if you wanna get anywhere with a new character
u literally get the same gear from farming heroic - legendary anyway
unless u want godroll improvised gear then
People uses it mostly for mods apparently
its ok
u can get godroll mods from countdown etc anyways
I wasn't farming mods and i got 12% chd the other day
(then God smited me out of the servers cause of my luck)
I'm really feeling stupid. Do I just create a new character to play the seasons? I don't see an option to select seasonal character at the character selection screen.
its not out yet, next season
judging by how much ppl hated it idk if they will implement it
but we'll see
I bought it so 🤞
i think u bought the current season
season 2.0 with the seasonal characters isnt here yet
does anyone really play the game anymore? i just got it for pc and level 22 and looking for people to play with
Yes, we still play this infinite grind game
This is our destiny
apj servers are always full btw
Any cool rifle build with the new set?
i need help with a mission
Game crashes when whispering? odd bug
apj?
when will the inspecting users be fixed all i see currently is black page
not a priority i guess
Its hard to start over when you have everything on pc had to switch to ps5. Rip
a really cool thing they could do for open world pvp is take a look at sniper elite 5 and you know that invasion where a real player can join the game while your doing a control point or mission or bounty or anything open world and you kill them you gain some loot and exp but if they kill you it makes you restart the mission to checkpoint note this option can be disabled for them who don't want to interact with pvp but be something cool and new to division 2
if not then they could add more incursions with new raids or new countdown type of game modes or even take some from div 1 and revamp them for div 2 be even better if we could change the difficulty level from normal to heroic or legendary or harder for them who do like a challenge normal has never been hard to do
Yeah its just a grind maybe when I finish the episodes on destiny 2 will get back to it just switching and all my gear and all tha tis on pc. its annoying I love divison too just grind.
too many grind games at once XD
Did they ever allow crossplay i thought they did once upon a time long time ago on d1 /d2 or was it a fever dream
you know crossplay sounds really cool where your able to play with consoles great idea but take it into pvp and thats where all the problems starts consoles get aim assit right so that right there is never tuned corecly its always buffed to high hell meaning you could close your eyes one handing tapping aim and tapping trigger to shoot great way to abuse a built in aimbot then say your a pc player sure pc has better aim with practice so then the console users will also get upset so its kinda of a 50/50 battle depening on the players skill
but if its pve only then thats cool so it wont matter
Anyone know why I only got the stinger lmg and nothin else for referral im the veteran.
Should I contact support if I didn’t receive the rewards on twitch for watching Ubisoft forward? It showed that I watched long enough but nothing received
Did you already claim your stuff at your Twitch drops inventory and did you link your Ubisoft account to Twitch?
punctuation, i beg
Hey yall
Facts
You know, that would actually be pretty cool.
that would turn into disaster pretty fast. experienced players wont let u even stand a second. if cheater joined the session good luck finishing the mission. frustration and rage quit.
that’s how invasions work in any game with them lol
so like control point in dark zone
Surprisingly in sniper elite is quite fun
But very limited
Doesnt work here
Also want to say
8/10 timez iy becomes a CQC fest instead of sniping
hello
im downloading this game after 2 years
lets see how it has changged
anyone here that is able to help me and a friend in the summit stage 100?
Div2 is currently on sale ( Steam )
Anyone know if the removal of the special ammo directive in the open world and missions was intended or a bug
Because it only seems to show up in the summit
Unknown about raids or incursion or anything pvp
the directives in open world rotate each season, but summit allows them all to be activated
Ah thank you
expect bugs in s6 update
Any fast way to get the coyotes mask or is countdown the way to go?
countdown with mask targetted loot
Or just run Jefferson Trade Plaza on heroic
Pretty sure its one of those exotics that you can't get dropping anywhere else unless you've gotten it already
Jefferson isn't a good farm for coyote without mask TL
Only project exotics and raid/incursion/leg exotics are exclusive
I mean you can just run it with a squad
It's 5 percent chance once per run it's ehh
Also I've seen countless exotic mask drops, none have been the coyotes except once from JTC so ig I'm just unlucky
Thought it was 7% on heroic, I'm defo wrong ig
Its pretty low anyways, so many times you'll probably just get Merciless instead
Its 7% on heroic, not 5.
Well, its seems low, but i got 4 masks in my 7 runs. Call it a luck or something.
But imho its good to run there and get coyotes. 👍
I ran it so many times on squad heroic but only got the drop playing it solo on challenging
This was before I actually bothered getting an Optimise DTTOC FAMAS and a Grupo Obliterate
Hence why I didn't play solo heroic then
Im like shd 500 now so heroic feels more approachable
Oh, right. Thats fair.
I just hate how specialisation points are char specific
So, countdown with tl mask is a good option too.
I've not actually stepped into countdown
Never felt the need to
The irony considering I've literally done DH on discovery and got the Console Record for a little bit
Comparing countdown to raids like dh or ih is a bit off.
Its pretty pleasant if players are doing their part and you'll get tons of loot. Trust me.
I've never bothered cause of loot organisation
CD is very good for that. :)
Ironic considering I have like 2 mules
Since i can only change the atribute of one slot, would i have to keep farming to find the exact atributes i want? Cause it always just says this slot cannot be recalibrated, its a high end so im guessing thats why
what are you trying to recal? cause if it's named item then you cant recall it's special roll
im tryna have a full crit armor plate
but im not having much luck at getting crit stats on them when farming
should i target loot plates instead of an actual brand?
no stick w the brand
there are too many other brands that will drop if you just pick chests TL. theres only 6 gear pieces that can drop if u stick w brand or gear set
the second attribute is more likely to be the same colord as the main attribute
so it's not guaranteed
hmmm. tryna create a st. elmos build so im looking for as much crit as i can
keep going. you'll get it eventually. usually i get the stuff i want when im not looking for it though. so i find it easier just to play for fun and xp rather than thinking about a specific gear piece i want cuz that gets frustrating fast. are you doing countdown?
Bump for the daily votes, let Ubisoft know how we feel.
yes
Yea I did. But didn't show up ingame
How do I kill Spitfire and Kin in Keny?
Need to use fire damage, if it is who i think it is
i am playing division 2, got to lvl 24 or something. then i couldn't find a horde mode so started division 1 again. Any fresh players here who transitioning
So I never did Expedition before, it’s really cool!! When/how often is it open as it fcloses again in a few days?
stays open for a week then closes for two i think
yes
Hello, everybody. Did someone know why we became no Arm Patches anymore for defeating Loop 10/20/30/40 in The Descent?
Countdown still the same right? when queuing, youre queing global? with or without the new season update?
pretty much
Is "Like Glue" a good Named Shotgun
Perfect Brazen
I've heard this talent is pretty good
Yeah very good shotgun totally worth it
I just happened to get it from a random enemy
At least we actually have viable Named Shotguns now
Fellas
new player question: do legacy manhunts actually explain all the story detail or I need to watch some youtube vid for that
You'd have to find the comms
go watch youtube
thx
send off is a funny shotgun, has the range but none of the accuracy, so it's a + that just doesnt work
well rock 'n roll is also pretty fun for a named shotgun
mop is actually quite good
both boomsticks are just okay
.
RocknRoll works if the ammo bug gets fixed
Which probably won't until Brooklyn
I'm not that optimistic over a bug thats returned countless times
great so there's a bug where game crashes if you type in chat, smh
then u do whisper yes
Are the servers down rn?
rock n roll my beloved
Lefty more useful, and gives an extra mod slot
why is countdown so scuffed now, i cant get in a single lobby where everyone doesnt leave
connection issues i guess
Gotta question about momento, when multiple people run it are the trophies a shared drop?
I dont think exotics interact with other players unless stated
i have a question on Anti Cheat, my friend and i, is it normal for the Easy Anti cheat to sit there for a good 30 second to a minute before starting game?
this is just first time i seen it do it and with division 2, i mean it's been doing it for a while now but i finally just got tired of it figured i ask, i can't really find anything on the google.
most things about it is error codes, this and that but didn't see much on long loading times for it.
is the game still starting?
yeah, everything is decent. It did suck last yeear, if the game, more like, when the game crashed, having to wait a couple minutes to get back on to help eachother. it was back and forth too. she'll crash, get on, 10, 15 min later i'll crash. we stopped playing for a bit.
it's stable now. just the darn long load time is all. 🙂
tried validating your game on steam ? idk whether this helps
Is anyone else having issues with Danny Weaver not giving them the exotic cache purchased? I have had this happen on both HC and my core character.
working fine for me
where is snitch today?
Does anyone have 8 Ivory Keys and can open up the box and drop me a Shield Splinterer? Or help me kill the 4-Hunters at the Christmas Tree
Lol, only now I noticed that the Zweihander brand chestpiece is the same model of the WHC chestpiece (Chainkiller), but painted in orange.
Edit: Not just the chestpiece, but the entire set is just WHC recolored.
Maybe Ubi is running out of ideas with The Division 2, too, not just For Honor.
where is snitch today?
@cinder wind You could try to spawn them with some NPCs around the tree. I left 1 alive, and had 10 more swarm the place when I was fighting the hunters. They provided great distractions so I had some breathing room
Dude is really called "Derrame", Jesus.
it's random as always
map is too big to find him in random locations, can take forever
Did they significantly reduce xp awards for year 6? And did they recalibrate watch levels if so?
he only spawns in certain places just google a list and check
i think he generally tries to spawn close to close where you are
i done with div2
👍
too much buggs and crashes seems like i wait then they resets main characters
youll see the same models recycled with a lot of the gear types/brands. this isnt a new thing
As far as I've seen, each brand has a unique model.
Each brand type may have the same model with different colors, but never same model between different brands.
man that glitched crafting table is awesome
check the lower quality mods, they definitely get recycled with slight changes.
Oh yeah, how are some people able to hide their chestplate appearance ingame? No idea how, but I've seen some people play with concealed chestplate pieces
some apparel items do that
its not something thats a setting, its just someone using one of those
aww, I see. That's a shame. I wanted to see more of the vest from the apparel I got ww
Elden ring expansion in 5 days
Can try changing your shirt to make it more visible
Oh wait it is a shirt oops
Try the umbra chest mod
It's pretty clean
I believe there's a low level chest that's the same but without the magazines too but I forget the brand
watcher chest should be pretty minimal
devs really mess up on this whole "one endgame". XP system from 30-40 is a complete s**tshow.
im just glad i have enough stored shd to not need to level agents anymore
is there cross save?
no
No cross-save nor cross-play
dam i gotta restart on pc
🤭
on second thought id rather just not play the game
just got a compliment for doing heroic missions at shd level 134
wow i was actually thankful lmaooooo
That's probably why they're in there
Challenging you can pretty much solo carry so it's not a big issue
Idk whats the big deal with level 1000
the bonuses when you max out the watch are useful
and then the scavenging is wonderful
Aside from the scavenging the only good thing imo is the blue cores
And health boost
Crit chance is perhaps the most useful thing on there
Along with the effective handling from green bonuses
Barely i can reach it fine without it
And if you really dont care farm a hot shot determined build and call it a day
You can reach cap without it but it's almost 2 free crit chance attributes
Assuming youre using red core strikers anything over 40% chc and like 80% chd is overkill asf i shred enemies with no stacks and my strikers build is horrible
Im on challenging with 3 directives
It only shreds because you're on challenging lol
Striker 4 pc carries
50/150 is the recommendation
Or close to it
I still wish the BA +50% mag capacity bonus would start at 2 pieces instead of three.
Then I can slap on the other brand that gives +15% mag size for 1 piece with my True Patriot set with Ninjabike.
aaron retconned?
Yes
lmao, what's next, lau is alive?
Bliss chopper 2.0 comes back
I have no idea what should we do to make the team put Summit Combat Merit Commendation on trello. These 4 years of ignoring is just so (use a word of your preference)
It is possible to have 136 mag size on st almos
1 ninja BP .. 2 TP .. 2 Brazos .. 1 Zoo
PS2? what's that
Kids these days
Playstation 2. Crazy how I grew up on that era of consoles and it's now considered "retro"
Even the Xbox 360 is considered retro 🤢
I think I have actually, I remember playing some 007 games on PS2 when I was very young
ayyy got my friend oreo in the first and last run of the night 🎉
Nightfire was objectively the best 007 game on PS2
Agent Under Fire was also really good
Playing the MP with the Throwing mines and trip mines. Seeing how many you could place and caging off areas
Did you ever find a way to get those?
Anyone else got an issue with the 'Add ons' tab in game(the tab where you access the level 30 boost)? It just comes up as a blank screen for me.
Yeah I've seen people report that, just checked myself with a level 40 character and I can see it though
(don't have any spare slots to try a new character)
camp white oak faye lau mission i think.
I dont suppose you have seen any possible workarounds?
you can use the normal ubi store instead of ingame store to purchase stuff
Only thing I've noticed in the past is the store is blank if you don't have the Ubisoft overlay enabled, but this sounds like a more specific problem.
You could create your character as a 'jump straight to wony' one then just travel back to dc after the tutorial?
Thanks. I am in the middle of a re-install now to see if that wil work. I do have the Ubisoft overlay disabled, so I will try that also
if it's disabled, you cannot purchase anything ingame iirc
The solution is probably the store on the character selection screen
got a mule to lvl 40, but in the projects tab still seeing lvl 30 projects for settlements, why?
gam brock
Finally! So many people have never played nightfire and it blows my mind, was my favourite game as a kid and way ahead of its time as a fps
I remember playing split screen with my family it was so fun, all the different maps, weapons, characters and gadgets
If u did, I love you
But goldeneye seemed to be more popular back then if I remember correctly (no idea why, nightfire was better)
the only bond game I played was quantum of solace on the 360
love most of the movies though
Achievemeent: hijack extraction in occupied dark zone. Occupied means invaded, right?
Yes
Goldeneye on N64 was fire, probably my favorite, nightfire was also great. The only 007 games I've ever played
Does anyone know if I’ll ever be able to get the belstone blueprint? I took a break during the season they released it. I would really like to collect all the blue prints but I’m missing some locked behind past seasons 😐.
Only available if they rerun the season.
Bps are locked? Tf
What's the best location for Hyena tactical assessments?
hyena's bounties or crafting
So if I want a picaros holster blueprint, they'd have to rerun season 10 stuff, but I can still obtain the item through random drops, correct?
You can obtain through drops
The blueprint drops as well?
Sorry i meant tge item
hi all why does the game keep crashing non stop when i /w people non stop if i dont then never crashes
for me inspect is broken
it's broken for everyone
ah i see tks
🤣
It sometimes works, sometimes doesn't
are control points broken right now?
nevermind, just saw the issues board
that sucks
Can i use chain-killer + determined to one shot pvp players in dz
i think so? but you need o have stacks built before and use something very hard hitting
not a PVP guy
headhunter lasts like 5s in pvp so you'd need to have a convenient npc to hand to stack on
It lasts more than 5s in pve tho?
yeah but you're asking about pvp
The power to my house just went off while I was on loop 50 absolutely, fucking LIVID
should've paid the bill
Loop 50 without defeating the nemesis?
Picaros bp drops from control point crates
Determined yes, chainkiller no. Use glass cannon or Henri chest
Well yeah
I kept going after cause I like to keep playing it
Didn't know that, assumed any blueprint locked wasn't obtainable beyond that specific season
Btw how are you supposed to beat frank frank, again? We spent like 15 min trying to break their armor.
Who the hell is frank frank
Hermano and picaros are in control point crates same for setup and closer
Those are the only ones of the top of my head I can remember, I believe some gearsets are too
The 2 dudes from legendary manning
weakspots?
Which are?
dunno, i'm just guessing havent done legendayr zoo
not the first time they would have done so
I'd like to get the blueprint for the "Forge" holster at some point as well.
You need to sit inside them and shoot their backs
Yeah, I saw it on yt... But idk, it doesn't looks like it's intended to be that way.
That's what I'm trying to figure out.
You just have someone agro them and then the other 3 shoot them in the back
PFE with Scorpio and intimidate
Maybe we didn't had enough dps then.
It takes a ton of dmg to break the bp
Make sure to have someone debuff with Scorpio and sledgehammer
PGC, 2 Habsburg, 3 hotshot. Model 700/determined. Hits 2.89m for me.
You can hit harder for first shot
What you mean harder for the first shot
Bigger number
Why would a first shot be bigger than others tho 🤣
?
if you don't do that you have to stack every imaginable buff to kill them like sledge, knuckles, etc.
or just two shot them
I mean if you wanna skip determined then perfect ranger is way to go then you can do over 3m
If I did the math right this should hit harder
Nope
Tested it out, the 3 hotshot variant hits 11.1 and that hits 10.7, also you are missing 22% weapons handling out then
Not gonna test it out in actually pvp because that will be much worse experience already because of that handling you are missing.
Just put handling on then?
On contractors, fox? Also again it's less dmg 🤣
Your build hits 200k less
Not sure how you tested your build
Look in #td2-build-advice
I mean y'all can settle it one way
I mean I test my builds in a shooting range 😅😅 I used exactly same what you sent to me
Show me the actual dmg numbers what you hit with those 2 builds please 😅
Just sent it
You haven't send me anything tho 😅
But whatever, end of they day till you are happy run whatever you want mate 😅❤️
@novel laurel how do you have 2 headshot attribute on Douglas mask ?
20 headshot attribute, 10 headshot attribute and 10 from the mod? 🤣🤣🤣
Like I said, test you actual builds out mate not theory craft and then say mine is worse ❤️
You would need to prove the math is wrong tho, are you arguing with numbers or what?
I don't argue with anything I tried his build he sent me 😅
Again you can't have 2 headshot attributes on a mask
Ok? And that doesn't equal a 200k dmg difference
Congrats I made a small mistake
I'm trying to help you, if you don't want help we don't have to continue talking
Just in future make the build and actually try them out ❤️
In the future maybe don't test your builds in the shooting range and actually use a dps calculator
Is a striker build worth making
Definitely
Hunters fury is good also, I mainly use that when I farm DCD to boost people to 40. Striker has really good dmg tho, really good for Incursion also
Yeah I can pve well with hunters but I’m looking to pack more of a punch I guess
Still need the msg from the incursion
Msg?
You wrote you need the msg from the Incursion 😅😅 you meant Ouroboros?
Ohh all good you can send me your psn I can probably run you tru tomorrow couple of times if you like.
Sure
I switched from fury to strikers and I'm having way more success
Fury has those headhunter pistol builds what I like. But I definitely like striker more
Xz-tox1c-zX
I’ve been away for a bit
I use it with determined d50 when I run heroic DCD it's just so fast with that
Sent
Nice thing about fury is armor and health ngl
I miss it
Also I guess I was running kinda fancy fury, cuz I think most ppl run normal 6 red with some normal chest. I use 4 red 2 blue with Ridgeway
hey guys i'm having a problem with interacting with wally does anyone know what the issue is/have a fix for it?
Gearset with green plus symbol that gives armour?
Oh it's AOK
System corruption I guess
@low lily you were correct I tested in game, I was wrong there
try not to rely on the calc on that page too much, just use it to lay out the build only
we've all seen how shoddy it does calcs
Yea that was poorly executed on my end
you really dont need glass
spotter is good enough
True could go spotter
Honeslty you can probably one shot with ninja in PvP I was talking about it with Raucey
3 hotshot, spotter and foxes does it
i was hitting for 1.9ish
good enough to kill anyone but tanks
anyone have link that document that showed you what gear gave what after deconstructing it??
Man I would’ve joined the game sooner if I knew I could get an echelon outfit
I envy you.
That "Thing that aged like milk" still has daily interactions with the devs working on teh Division IP so maybe it didn't age as poorly as you think it did
that must be awesome. I thought people sign up for it to promote the game or something.
ETF = Elite Task Force
IN DIV1, about 4 months after release the Devs realized "We got a major proeelm with end game". As a response they decide to invite a dozen players of various backgrounds (not just influencers) to provide feedback/input on proposed chanegsto try and reinvigotrarethe game. The 1.4 update to DIV1 was the result of that first ETF gathering which was 1 week long. They did it again 5-6 months later and called it ETF Bravo. I was invited for ETF bravo and I make NO content at all. I'm just the avg man with a wife/family, FT Job and limited free time so my time is valuable
BS. We are NOT gate keepers and half of us don;t even produce any kind fo content for the game so there goes your "paid shills" narrative
You missed the joke
Did you guys get a look at the incursion before it was released? I've been so curious what the originally intented method for lovebirds was because I really don't its either of the two main strategies, but I honestly dont know what was expected to be done instead
Anybody know what the minimum difficulty is for each mission to unlock the Sticky Bomb for my new character? And what missions do I have to do to get it?
wall street- sticky bomb
stranded tanker- fire sticky
if u are using new character u have to play wony to unlock rouge shd tech
it unlock on first playthrough at story difficulty
have to beat the boss to obtain it
Thanks
it's the other way around, conley gives you fire sticky, drago gives you regular explosive sticky
my bad
hi, is the weekly "capital mission" the same as the "capital building" mission?
yes
capital hill, hard difficulty or higher
Wait wut capital hill which mission is that
Capitol Hill is the area of grass before the Capitol Building
I guess you don't understand sarcasm.
After I fully optimize my build, I think I'll leave this game for some weeks (or even 2 months, Idk).
I'll play the Elden Ring DLC and hop on Tekken.
I see no reason to keep playing this game.
why not make a new character? || dont take it too seriously it's just a joke about seasonal characters||
very honest confession, good to know. thanks for sharing.
meanwhile me who creates a new character every month:
My second character is lvl 9 or 10, but I'm really not invested enough to do it.
Do you have warlords of new york or lvl 30 booster helps alot
or if not that is completely fine
👍
I see no reason in boosting a character to NY, I wanted to see how things worked from the start, and I thought about getting that cursed comm at the end of the main campaign that the game don't allows me to pick up with my main character.
understandable there
what is yellow line in brand set? I found +30% weapon handling in set bonus but its yellow
Taxes.
It's a bug if you look at it while in the named gloves
Just ignore it
weird, thanks
If you look at it from the same brand but not the named item it's not golden
after starting and having this game for 1 month and a half (took breaks played other game am just that guy)
This is a interesting game
It's the Zweihander gear brand that have a yellow 30% weapon handling.
It's weird how the named gloves also have 15% weapon handling.
It's only if you look at in the named gloves
I'd use it, if I didn't needed more damage of the Contractor's gloves, to oneshot everything that moves with my 1886 build
and the 15% weapon handling line is also yellow lol
That's supposed to be how it is
Yes, but the 15% is intentional.
Because is the buff of that named glove.
ooo ic so thats where to bug comes from
The normal value of weapon handling is lower than 15%.
8
I come back to Div 2. No gear score…
Maybe devs is making it more new comer friendly and easier to balance things… mmm 🤔
Maybe? That's it
wow a daily project gives 73k exp now
yet somehow the season pass project is giving out 700k hmmm
Bugged.
Bugged because the game now auto defaults to WT0 xp
Making it more newbie friendly but also ruining it for the veterans who spent years grinding this game only to be reset back to level 1 every season with seasonal characters
except it doesn't affect their main characters one bit
what I got from all this outrage is people don't like to be forced to play in conditions outside of their comfort zones
It's just not smart to introduce seasonal characters almost 6 years after the launch of a game which barely has received any new content in a long time. I couldn't think of a worse thing to introduce to a game like this. Classic Ubisoft. Always off with the timing
It doesn't no, but the major point is the fact that this game isn't designed around resetting progress every season. Our main characters have been the forefront of every manhunt season for the last however long theyve been in the game. Now, we need to make a seasonal character at the start of every new season and play from 1-40 all over again. Our main characters are now closet characters. We don't know yet if we can go back to our mains while we have a seasonal character active. All they did was change how we consume the new content, not make it different. New players get a new experience meanwhile the old players get punished and reset to do it all over again and repeat the same process they probably did dozens of times. It's content aimed for new players, not old players. Again, same content, just fed to us differently
Maybe they're trying to kill the game on purpose. It's a little too early though since TD3 still has years of developement ahead before we even see anything about it
The point is, there's NOTHING aimed towards the old players. Notice how in the 5 min promo video they rewarded endgame content to players who don't have WONY. New players most likely won't buy WONY. We all get reset every season. Old players and new players will be on equal footing. It's nice yes but it's the quickest way to make the game die off because I'm betting a good number of the playerbase is the people who haven't put the game down after all these years
I think I'm missing something here. What does a game's age have to do with how content is delivered?
I wonder how many will be picking up that delayed DLC next year when they drove the rest of the player base off with seasonal characters 
The good thing with Ubisoft is, you don't even have to boycott these guys since they're boycotting themselves internally
For the last what will be 6 years here soon, they've never reset progress every season. The content has run incredibly stale, except maybe a few new added modes. But other than that, we do the same shit but in a different toilet. We've never had our progress reset, we kept playing on the SAME characters every single season. Now, with this upcoming season, that all changes. Our mains aren't our mains anymore, our seasonal character is. You can't access new content on a legacy character. Seasonal character is required
THATS why it's a bad change
I mean, you said it, the content was stale, which I agree. now they've decided to switch it up.
Everything. Especially in a game like this. It's been almost 6 years on the market. You can't just introduce seasonal characters and make everyone's characters obsolete after almost 6 years unless you have little to no respect for your playerbase
^ this
but they're not obsolete.
not being able to do seasonal content on your main characters doesn't make them obsolete.
unless you only play Div 2 for the seasonal content
What's the definition of a main character
Main character = character you use all the time
a character that you spend most of your time on, to do most content in the game?
Next season: new content on seasonal only. Therefore, SEASONAL characters will now be our main characters
Why???? People wanna play the new content but not on a reset character
How are they going to switch it up? People have being playing the same missions over and over for years. To remove all that progress and make everyone do them again starting from zero is not exciting
let's wait for their more detailed explanation, shall we?
They wanna use the loot they spent 6 years grinding for. All their memories, feelings and hard work they spent into their main characters is being replaced by a reset character every few months
You can introduce seasonal characters into a game within the first 6 months but not after almost 6 years. Especially not into a grindy game as this one
Imagine working hard on making the perfect agent face only to delete at the end of season
If they make it optional where you can go back to your main, I think everybody will be alright with that. But if it's mandatory you stay on seasonal until done, I think that's where everyone is freaked out on
probably most of the playerbase because unlike people here predicted the news of seasonal characters didn't hurt this seasons player numbers
Is high expertise and me not using drone the reason I get shredded by the ourboros in the dz even with 1.7 mil armor?
Armor doesn't mean anything if they can magdump you without missing
And is not being able to see.other peoples builds just a bug?
most people either
- don't care
- don't know
- are waiting to hear more
before proclaming game death
Expertise only applies to invaded dark zones, last I recall. As for drone, what kind???
they already said it's optional. what I understand from them is that you can return to your whatever main characters when you're not doing seasonal content
Wait fr?? And defender
Do you think these new players they got in with it will stay? lol They are disrespecting their loyal players who have been around for years. Only a matter of time before those numbers will drop significantly...
They likely have a high based crit build
It applies everywhere
And if ouro build was striker and obliterate of course you'd be burned no matter how much armor
I've forgone my opinion on it now that we know they're going to have a more detailed explanation soon™
We have seen the outcome of this years ago in similar games such as Warframe. Neglecting your veteran players is never a good thing
Lemme do some research on this bc when I watched the live event to see the all of 5 minutes they vaguely explained, they never confirmed it was optional unless I fully missed that part
I don't believe in older loyal players getting brownie points just for being around for a long time
people thinking day 1 WoNY owners deserve something for l40 being free is still crazy to be despite being so recent
And that's the wrong mindset and very disrespectful. These people stuck around for years and even through rough times with this game
rough times? lol
The whole time has been a rough time lol
I've been here since day 1 of div2 I'm not bein disrespectful for not wanting brownie points for something we have only the vaguest info on 💀
Good, they need to explain more instead of vaguely explain in a 5 minute Livestream. Not enough details were there
The grenade bag still haunts me
all we really know atm is seasonal characters = season content (but not climax missions & master difficulty)
Most run armor strikers and then slap on unbreakable chest piece and run catharsis
I doubt new gear will ever be locked to seasonal characters because that is actually just nonsensical
my only gripe with seasonal content is that it is locked behind weekly phases.
I just hope "weekly" means targets or whatever the target replacement is comes out weekly and you can catch up like you can now
Transferring gear earned on seasonal charcters to main characters makes 0 sense when they have stated multiple times they can't expand stash space any further.
idk makes about as much sense as them adding new gear to me
Adding new gear also makes no sense.
it makes a lot of sense actually
If they pull a destiny 2 and sunset old things then yes
I don't wanna speculate but in any case, never too late to up your inventory/stash management game
For me, I don't wanna level all the way back up every new season. I've done it numerous times and it gets tedious the more times you do it. Idm it tho as long as it's optional but I can confidently say that these changes will make me play the content less and less
not adding new gear/weapons would be 100% worse than the common view of how seasonal characters will be to the games health
This I fully agree with
I also think that seasonal gear/weapons will only be usable with seasonal characters since that's how games such as Diablo do it and they seem to be inspired by it
You mean you don't wanna go from 1-40 and 1-1000 every season? Thats the best part! 😂
no grind vs new(old) grind
Every 3-4 months when we reset? Nawww fk that
That'd even make finding loot harder for endgame as you'll be forced to trash anything that's not 40 as you progress
theres just no info to really base a full opinion on atm I don't like how it is now with the vague info and I hope they know that but with no info atm and info coming I'd rather wait than outright be saying this is awful and will kill the game ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Or grind out all the exotics again..all the added specializations.
theres still a lot of time for things to change I'm not willing to jump the gun myself
If they don't make leveling 1-40 quicker with seasonal content, it will be very rough. In Diablo for instance, you can level up your seasonal character much faster due to them being more powerful with items that give you unique powers and you also get stuff like double XP in Diablo
I'd argue at present the launch of S9 where the game constantly crashed every like 5-10 minutes was more hazardous to the games life than the vague info we have on seasonal characters
Good mindset to have. I wanna stay on the game and see the playerbase grow or bring people back, I don't wanna see it fail now. I'm just not a fan of these major changes they're making, it feels way way too late to be messing with the recipe this suddenly. Let's let them keep cooking but on the meantime let's cross our fingers they don't burn the kitchen or the house down
1-40 won't matter when it's 700,000 xp for shd. it's the 700,000,000 xp they need to change to get from 1-1000
I agree. Most of it feels way too late
Yall gotta remember, this games was supposed to be sunset 3-4 years ago.
You're right, it will be even tougher to level 1-1000 to have all the watch stats each season. I honestly have no idea how they're going to do that. They could make leveling faster in seasonal content
Yeah, but they won't...
It really does. I'm all for new changes and new content, I just don't like the idea of resetting every single season. I worked hard to have the builds I have, it's gonna feel very wrong to start over to consume the new content
We only get double xp at the start of every new manhunt target for 15 levels.
It's been over 4 years since the last DLC for this game came out btw 😂
my reason for not really caring about the idea of reseting every season is cus for all I know the exp/leveling process could be completely different than it is now
cus if seasonal characters are for seasonal content thats apparently weekly it could be drastically different than it is now
^^ dead on the money with that one. There is that possibility
Won't know until they say so...but I won't be holding my breath for a drastic change
I'm gonna enjoy season 1.0 for the time being until we know more info. If I can't go back to my beloved main character anytime I want, it's my time to move on. If I can go back anytime I want, cool, I'll play the seasonal stuff when I'm bored
if seasons have been like 3-4 months long the whole time they've been a thing and they've increased how long seasons are by a month I can't imagine that changing
Why make seasonal charcters a thing anyway. Just add the weekly targets to the main game and all will be fine.
Devs been playing too much Diablo lol
yeah just do it how it has always been done... stale and boring
my guess though is because people have gotten so settled into things that marketing something like the incursion as the hardest thing yet falls apart within like a week
so having a grind reset "fixes" that
though it doesn't really make sense if master difficulty and climax missions are able to be done on ur main so ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I think the thought behind this is they want to make the game more accessible to new players that are coming late to the party. They want to bring everyone on an even field and want to make them play together. Most players these days are afraid of playing a game like this so late in the lifecycle as they feel it's too late and they're left too far behind and can't catch up as quickly
To me, it seems like a desperate attempt to up the player numbers
Well of course they can't catch up. No one wants to grind out 700,000,000 xp to have a max watch that came out 4 years ago..
Unless there's a new turret glitch... 
Only this time they're going to roll everyone back 4 weeks
There is always a new glitch..a new hack....Just today I say 4 people who were "invisible" in countdown.
They will if they wanna run WONY and get them godrolled crafting table loot
I wouldn't be so sure about that being a glitch or hack with the servers they have 
I don't remember the last time I crafted anything 😂
Well, there's a lovely new bug where if you make a new character from level 1, reach base of op, boost to Wony, finish WONY, your level 40 crafting table will produce all god rolls
It's a hack for sure. The player doesn't show up in the team menu, and the NPC's don't target that player. If it was a server issue the player would be disconnected(which still happens after opening the final chest)
People are mod farming rn and trying to craft their unicorns they need
I'm sure that will be patched and rolled back.
They should at least bring back each gear piece having talents with seasonal characters
That's what I'm saying too so all of my friends wanted to do it and I told them not to, in case of a ban or rollback
No, that was too complicated on day 1. Is the reason they gave for the change to the current gear system we have now.
I'm doubting ban and somewhat rollback
rollback while way more possible than a ban I doubt cus this strikes me more of a countdown vendor bug scenario
Ah yes, the infamous lefty being free
Twas a good time...
@violet wedge No that system was trash especially with the drop rates. It will go against what they are trying to do which is bring new players in. And the rainbow loot that we have right now would make everything worse
I mean they have to somehow make leveling at least more faster and give people an incentive to go for seasonal characters. If they just lock out the main characters and leave everything as is in the seasonal content, it will be brutal
Nah the best time was when our gun talents got swapped so 75% of our builds were useless for a few weeks 🤣
In Diablo for instance people go for seasonal characters for the power fantasy, cause the game gives you unique items that make you stronger than in the main game
All I want is that launch Merciless ignoring all armor again 
@violet wedge The problem resides in the fact that we almost did not have new content in the game for 4 years. The seasons are very similar and the story is rapidly turning into trash. Most of the vets have 4 characters already and have already grinded enough of the same content over and over. Before thinking of the seasonal characters, they should bring new content in and rethink the way the content is delivered. Nobody wants to do the same bounties, same control points and missions with different named bosses.
We been talking about the exact same thing a couple minutes ago too. I agree 100%
I really want to know where the idea of so much of the playerbase has all 4 character slots filled with builds comes from
I don't think that with the low number of in the dev team that they can deliver on the content. That's why we're very skeptical about season characters not being another grind we've already done (Watch, Expertise etc..) before the new DLC comes out
I mean its probably around 160 on the low end if I had to guess
including support studios
@elfin hazel Everybody in my friend's list have 4 char and from day 1. When you have 1000s of hours in the game, the fastest way to grind is to have multiple characters and some of us like to role play with their characters 🙂
last number(83+) we outright had was a over a year or two ago and god knows whats happened since
The reason why most people including myself have 4 characters is, if you have a high watch level character, you get all the SHD Points (-1k if I'm not mistaken) on each character you level up to 40. This way you can max out your items much faster
Now way 160 devs are working on the division. honestly, if they are 20-30 at best, it would be incredible
I leveled up like 7 characters to 40. Skipped to NY from 30. Most of the people I know did the exact same thing. The higher your watch level is, the more effective this becomes
you're both selecting a very small amount of the playerbase and projecting that to scale to the most of the playerbase which just really doesn't work
Not really, new players don't tend to stick around the game that long when they discover that that have done everything that the game has to offer. Veterans do not represent a small amount of the playerbase but rather the most important part in a game that's that old.
I mean, you don't need to level a new character anyway since you get to play the same control points, same missions, and bounties over and over with each season. I think majority of us has played most of the content for more than enough in almost 6 years at this point
Exactly. Most of the new players tend to leave quickly. Many of them get the game on a big sale too. Veteran players are just as important as new players
@violet wedge Exactly why there is an uproar for seasonal characters. We don't need to farm the same things we've done for 6 years, will probably be bugged also, and it's not having modifiers that will make us happy to do it again. Modifiers in this game are worse than what they were in div1 (looking at you global events). You can't keep giving us things we didn't ask for, not listen to your community and complain that's it's hard to balance something you put in the game for the grind.
This game could've been the best game ever created in the genre tbh but the ball is dropped each time. Don't get me wrong, i don't blame the devs, the higher ups are more responsible for this imo. We should've had at least 6 raids and 6 incursions by now at the bare minimum.
@violet wedge For me, we're more important since we've supported the game with playing metrics and money when it was at the lowest and still do to this day.
as I don't know how many friends you both have I'm just going to assume a likely high number for this but assuming you have 100 friends each who all have 4 characters maxed out with builds that's only 0.4%-0.2% based off what my guess for the player number really is(50k-100k) hell 0.8%(25k) if you really want to go lower there's just no way for that to scale to like 70-90% assuming 70-90 is all vets
my assumption on player number is average monthly all platforms
The last DLC that released was over 4 years ago. Says everything 😂 We definitely deserved better. Even TD1 had 4 Incursions and that game was only supported for 2 years before they stopped the support for it
@violet wedge Excatly. Remember when they've said that they've learned from the div1 at E3 and focused on the endgame and when the game came out we didn't have acces to WT5 for almost a month ? 🙂 I knew it was going to be complicated then.
I'd expect the average actively used character slots to be 1.5 not enough to definitively be 1 and not enough to definitively be 2
Destiny 2 came out with less content then Destiny 1 but at the end their season even if they're a paid expansions brings you a lot of content storywise, missions, raids, gameplay etc...
@elfin hazel Where are you pulling out your stats from ?
pure guess work since the only actual data we have is mostly unreliable for projecting actual player numbers
The game was basically in life support up until a year ago while it was still listed as a live service game
i'm already paying for premium pass so i woudl'nt mind paying for an expansion for 10 more dallors tbh
game was off steam for majority of its life most pc players are likely on ubicon so assuming the launch numbers on steam somehow project to ubicon that'd be around 10-20k and I'm assuming player numbers on consoles are around the same skewing more towards playstation
I'd gladly pay for an expansion too. The issue is Ubisoft seem to have dropped the ball on TD2 after the Warlords DLC 4 years ago
@elfin hazel You're assuming that the players still left are a mix of new players, vets etc... and that the playerbase is global. The game is not crossplay so the playstation players, xbox players, pc players are compartmentalized. The more likely is that every platform has a low to medium player count that plays daily and most of them who stuck in the game are vets. I'm sorry. The others don't stick with the game.
theres always going to be a small amount of new players but never none and regardless if there was crossplay that shouldn't impact the numbers to a sizeable amount
And vets do not have for the vast majority 1-2 characters.
Honestly, it boggles my mind why they're not focusing their resources into making the game crossplay. They'd benefit big time from it. They plan on still supporting it, so why not focus on making crossplay happen? Many games that are around these days (especially in the same genre) already have crossplay and cross-save
because crossplay is probably the biggest task they could put onto themselves
Just look at Warframe. That game has been on the market since 11+ years and they introduced crossplay and cross-save to it just a couple months ago
Yeah, it would be a very important task since it would breath new life into the game and it would be a huge Quality of Life change for the game
different game
different engine
different studio (most importantly number of devs)
different code
different management
different roadmaps
different save file systems
different server setups
different budgets
theres a lot of reasons why the question of but x game cant do it so why cant this game do it doesn't work
It doesn't matter if it's a different game. Almost any other game in the same genre pulled it off
Yeah I really don't wanna see cross play hit division 2... The amount of cheater boosting that'll be done is going to be insane
genre is unbelieveably different to how a game is coded and made
I'm guessing Ubisoft doesn't want to support this game enough and only does the bare minimum. That's the real issue here
???
Crossplay is in my opinion the better way to ensure that your playerbase (especially if it's not a big one) stay alive.
