The “today” meta builds are the same ones that have existed for the last two years but with better stats and weapons

smoky meteor
#

They're not destroying anyone's build at all. Seasonal mechanics won't be useable by anyone not on a Season character. You will still play the same Div2 you're playing now.

frosty wadi
#

This game has horrible balancing

ruby fractal
#

Does a game ever have great balancing ?

frosty wadi
#

No but its not hard, there are exotics that have been borderline unusable for years

ruby fractal
#

Well that’s true , theirs def a pool of trash exotics

frosty wadi
#

Project resolve didn’t do nearly enough to shake the meta

#

If the devs want us to use stuff that isn’t just the same few gear sets and exotics other stuff has to be on par or better, thats just the simple fact

kind veldt
barren tiger
#

i'm still waiting for that specialization overhual 🤣

frosty wadi
ruby fractal
#

Sadly, it’s hard to play choosing the weapons by aesthetic or personal preference.

kind veldt
#

seasonal content wont make me suddendly jump with joy when my first purple gun turns out to be double barrel shotgun

ruby fractal
barren tiger
#

right now if they are doing an intermission between content drops, i don't see an actual need for seasonal character other than them not being able to make balance changes

kind veldt
#

i admit there is niche for constantly starting new

#

that worked out in survival game mode

ruby fractal
#

It be cool if in story mode they had your new agent assist an NPC version of your main. How sick would that be .

remote charm
#

Damn true, yes. I'm a preorder and Beta player as well^^
And for me it's so painful to see what the game is going to be now....

barren tiger
#

Global Events as they are right now will remain exclusive to non-seasonal characters due to their incompatibility with seasonal progression and modifiers in their current state (translation: We couldn't balance GE with new characters)

frosty wadi
#

Starting from fresh is a great concept but the way its being forced upon new content isn’t fun and it isn’t for balancing, it’s because they want to keep you from playing the content with your max leveled proficiency 20 striker setup and steam rolling

barren tiger
#

There are 15 weeks of varied activities such as Seasonal Missions, Seasonal Projects, Manhunt Scouts and Priority Objectives to be completed with your seasonal character, followed by a 2-week Intermission period during which you can utilize your main character.

The fact that there's a two week intermission that lets you use your main, says a lot

# kind veldt that worked out in survival game mode

that's a two hour battle royale-esque experience with a pvp element, a game mode that you can choose to play whenever
compared to mandatorily going through the whole campaign again even a truncated form, to play the new content

frosty wadi
barren tiger

#

They realized the only way to make it balanced for everyone was to have everyone start at level 1, they outright admitted that they couldn't balance stuff in the orginial announcement

kind veldt
#

so for a session based game mode, sure no problem starting over

#

long term progression? nah

frosty wadi
#

The game is going in a downward spiral, we desperately need an ACTUAL balancing update, something that concretely changes the meta and what is and is not usable, the gameplay needs to change

kind veldt
#

spec rework should have happened

barren tiger
#

"By focusing the season experience on new characters exclusively, we can create something unique each season with much more control over general balancing"

#

much more control over general balancing

zinc shadow
#

cant you just like
stash your best build and equip it at level 40? do we know or not if seasonal characters can access the stash or what

smoky meteor
#

Okay, so hypothetically here, let's say they decide NOT to do Seasonal and instead change the ENTIRE game to be rebalanced around how they think the game should be played. No builds work, none of the gear sets function the same, exotics entirely reworked and changed. How much of their playerbase stays to actually figure that out? And then compare that to how much of the playerbase they can entice back by going "We have Seasonal characters that play with new mechanics and you don't have to know anything."

barren tiger
#

I think the code is being held together by hopes and dreams and duct tape

barren tiger
smoky meteor
frosty wadi
barren tiger
#

"followed by a 2-week Intermission period during which you can utilize your main character." then what's the point of doing a seasonal character

frosty wadi
#

^

#

Why develop a system for new characters if it can be ignored entirely

smoky meteor
zinc shadow
barren tiger
#

imo, if they just came out and honestly said "due to the past, we can't finely balance things like we want" or something like that it would help simmer down the outfry

barren tiger
smoky meteor
zinc shadow
#

like hypothetically if you're gonna make seasonal characters with gated progression and stashes, for a different balancing experience
couldn't they just make it a DLC that's a fully linear level pack or something

#

if they're gonna be so entirely separate from proper characters

frosty wadi
#

For all intensive purposes, the improvement to content means jack from them, seasons were increased to 4 months and yet we have less balancing and less content than a few years ago, they haven’t shown they can even make amazing seasonal content yet

zinc shadow

but true

Weirdo

frosty wadi
#

Point being, game is in a bad state and instead of addressing it the devs are doubling down on their bad decisions

#

We really need the actual good Massive teams back

spare cove
#

Yeah, yeah. And I'm a shill for still playing the fucking worst game ever

barren tiger
zinc shadow
#

i wonder what red storm are doing now that heartland is ded

spare cove
#

IIRC, they're being moved to develop further content for XDefiant and Siege

frosty wadi
#

Red storm is 100% gonna get shut down in a year, absolutely certain, they had hiring issues for multiple months way before the cancellation

zinc shadow
kind veldt
#

i dont remember about moving redstorm teams

barren tiger
#

to be clear on where I stand now that they put out that FAQ, while I still don't like it; I am willing to give it a chance next year

spare cove
#

Whatever. The ex-players are the righteous. While players who are still playing the Division 2 are the lowest scum of the earth /s

kind veldt
#

i do remember "support" being moved towards it in favour of heartlands

frosty wadi
kind veldt

if support is actually the developtment staff or just budget for projects i cant tell

Speculation based on logical evidence

think you need ot chill a bit

elfin frost
#

Has sound been restored to LMGs yet? Trello says it's not coming until 21.2 and that worries me, idk how often this game has an update and I refuse to play when my specialist weapon AND my primary weapons have no sound whatsoever

barren tiger
#

I did hop on td2 this morning thinking it was the next target but that's next week lol

kind veldt
#

no sound restored

elfin frost
#

Are you fucking kidding me

frosty wadi
#

Good

broken solstice
#

im already so used to it that when they fix the sound im gonna feel thrown off

barren tiger
frosty wadi
#

Starfield is okay overhyped mixed with people not doing research on what the game was actually like before buying

spare cove
zinc shadow
#

part of that is true

spare cove
#

I didn't ask for your input

kind veldt

frosty wadi
#

To positive for a moment, at least we have a good apparel event finally

elfin frost
#

I'm just frustrated because I JUST started the NY expansion after getting back into the game... maybe it's just my 'tism but it actually makes it impossible for me to play if I can't hear my weapons properly

barren tiger

elfin frost
#

Can I get a refund for a game I bought 6 years ago lol

barren tiger

well you would need a really good convincing argument and i dont think ubi does refunds ever

elfin frost
#

Product defective

#

User defective

spare cove
elfin frost
#

Manufacturer defective too

kind veldt
#

eh... apparel is partially recolors of stuff, not really motivated to farm

barren tiger
frosty wadi
elfin frost
#

At least that new nexon looter dropped guess I'll go play that until massive fixes this shit

barren tiger
elfin hazel
#

if the recolors look good idrm

elfin frost
#

It's on their tracker page but again I don't know the release schedule so I don't know how much time has to pass between update 21.1 and update 21.2

elfin hazel
#

whenever they feel its ready typically

elfin frost
#

Bbbbbut uncle ubi... My precious pew pews...

spare cove
#

I wouldn't mind if they do more hitfixes more often

kind veldt
#

think those end up being more server/connection issues

tender wave
#

depends how complex is whatever crazy spaghetti code caused the bug in the first place when those patch notes didn't mention anything to do with sound effects

spare cove
#

I'd imagine software programming is annoying, especially when dealing with 5-10 years old products

elfin frost
#

I'm just flabbergasted because I've never seen an update do anything like this

frosty wadi
#

Welcome to Div 2

elfin hazel
#

theres been quite a few audio glitches

elfin frost
#

And the rest of massive is probably working on the Avatar game

frosty wadi
#

The game where a customization update once had the ability to wipe saves

elfin hazel
#

avatar is out the studio seems to be split between finishing up star wars and div

elfin frost
#

I was referring to the expacs

elfin hazel
#

I still stand by I'd prefer this audio bug over the old one in like TU4

frosty wadi
#

So we wont be getting div 3 news until then

spare cove
elfin hazel
#

I have a video somewhere

#

still likely to be smaller teams for dlcs than making an entire game

spare cove
#

It's fair to say that Div 3 news and previews won't be out till 2026/2027 at the latest.

frosty wadi
#

We are still waiting on fuckin ghost recon and splinter cell remake to receive news, div 3 is way down the pipeline

elfin hazel
#

completely different studios

elfin frost
#

It's all Keener's fault, I hate that mf for sharing the same first name with me IRL

spare cove
#

I doubt the average player would care which studio cares developing which games. As far they're concerned, its Ubi and nothing more.

frosty wadi
#

Yes but the fact that they have been in development for at least 2 and a half years with no news should suggest how long its gonna be for div 3

barren tiger
elfin hazel
#

toronto is a smaller studio (experiencing layoffs doesnt help) and ghost recons had nothing official said

elfin frost
#

We aren't the average player though if we're in a discord for the game

elfin hazel
#

I think thats becoming more average

frosty wadi
elfin hazel
#

I mean ghost recons one of those series ubi has that its kind of hard to see them not making another title but given breakpoints performance it'll likely be a while

spare cove
#

As long they don't try to go colored gear again and focus on what its supposed to be, I can wait

elfin frost
#

Please no looter shooter we have this game for that

frosty wadi
elfin frost
#

Which means it was unnecessary

kind veldt
#

as far as i remember, there were two ghost recon games being made, one was already cancelled being that extraction shooter, the other is announced

elfin hazel
#

its still there you can just turn it off now unless you want to do raids then you need them on

#

I don't think frontlines or whatever it was called was an extraction shooter

frosty wadi
kind veldt
#

but mentioned tgether the cancellation of the other along the lines of "we have other project being worked on the series unnafected by this"

frosty wadi
#

I miss heartland

#

It just didn’t deserve to get canned

spare cove
#

Did Heartland have potential? Cuz I've been hearing negative impressions about it

kind veldt
#

heard mixed things

frosty wadi
#

It seemed like it was liked but with issues

kind veldt
#

lots of mechanics people actually wanted, but at the same time it was a differente genre

#

last i knew of details stopped on "being reworked to be closer to division"

elfin hazel
#

consensus seems to be mixed but ofc no details cus NDA means hard to truly say

How do you level up weapons and start doing better damage?

Are you on level 40?

#

Im level 7

kind veldt

if you are not max level just keep switching with whatever you find that has better stats

grand dove

#

enemies will start dropping better stuff as you progress with talents and more stats

What bird shot said

tiny oar
spare cove
hybrid ore
#

Unfortunately, all that doesn't justify even 1% of what the Outcasts did.

tiny oar
#

nothing justify what they did

#

only explains it

hybrid ore
#

well, at a stretch maybe I'd go for "explain it in their minds".

tiny oar
#

no i dont mean it explain like its normal, i mean it explain their motivations for what they did, and that if anobody experience what they experience, they would prob do the same, its logical

#

obviously its bad, but when everybody abandon you to die, usually people get bitter and want revenge

#

we dont get peace by saying "dont be mean", we get peace by helping each others, not letting each others down

#

if you let the outcast to die, but they dont, not only you are a bad person (the president) but they will come for revenge and thats expected

tender wave
#

they have a serious inability to look beyond their own ego and realise that most people were too wrapped in their own struggle with the virus to be able to stand up for them

#

civilisation was mid-disintegration

tiny oar
#

civ being crumbling down isnt an excuse to give up on each other, actually the opposite usually happen, in most catastrophes in history, people helped each others intead of turning on each others

#

like any hurricane destroying homes in the us, people usually help each others a lot, looting is rare

#

the actual threat in thoses situation is the police

#

cause they think they should maintain order at all cost, when they dont need or should

#

like div 2 is cool cause we shoot bad guys

#

but its fiction

tender wave
#

people have a limited ability to stand up for others, the more they're worried about their own friends/family/lives the less time & energy they have for others, and they wouldn't even necessarily know about the situation on Roosevelt Island unless news channels were making a big thing of it

tiny oar
#

no obviously, people wouldnt be able to help them if they dont know

#

but realistically the outcast wouldnt have gone on a major killing spree either x)

#

they would spend much more time trying to heal

#

nobody wants violence, its exhausting

#

i mean, not nobody, but almost

spare cove
#

I think what's more tragic is the potential the Outcasts could've had in trying to heal D.C in the crisis if they weren't spurred by a vengenful lunatic.

tiny oar
#

well, its division, so obviously everyone wants to murder everyone

#

in reality thats what would have happenned, they wouldnt go on a murder spree

spare cove
#

True

tiny oar
#

the true sons are more realistic, usually any org that hold some power wants to keep it, usually by violence

#

black tusk kinda weird, we dont know much about their real power

#

the heynas, meh, they could exist in reality, but they clearly wouldnt be as big as they are in game, they would at best be small time criminal doing some shady stuff

spare cove
#

While I'm not asking for a farming/walking sim, I would like some instances of helping settlements in a passive way.

There's more to saving what remains than shooting the bad guys from a barrel of a gun, if you ask me.

tiny oar
#

i mean

#

its a looter shooter

spare cove
hybrid ore
#

You can always donate to the control points, which is something that they could reasonably add to the Settlements too, although the kinda point of upgrading the Settlements to the final tier is that the're self-sustaining.

spare cove
#

True. Still a bit weird that Castle is 2/2 upgrade tier while Theater and Campus are at 4/4 upgrade tier xD

hybrid ore
#

the missions in the levelling process of 1-30 are all about getting to that point.

#

so I just assume that Castle still needs someone.

tiny oar
spare cove
#

We should have Manny as Castle leader. Poor dude could use a big break. 😔

hybrid ore
#

Actually Castle was a settlement already, it was mortar'd with dc-62 by the True Sons and this is it having been cleaned up.

tiny oar
#

but there is a balance to get, if settlements need help, you constantly need to help them, and its boring, or they dont need help, and you do nothing

#

like settlement in fallout 4

hybrid ore
#

I can already hear Preston Garvey sitting up in excitement.

tiny oar
#

its infuriating to always go and help

spare cove
#

Yeah, there's gotta be a balance. Can't always have settlement calling us for help 24/7 lol

hybrid ore
#

A spin-off game would work better with these systems, they'd feel kinda pointless as optional things in div2.

#

maybe even a certain Roguish idea that's been bandied around.

umbral hearth
#

have we gotten a CP bug fix yet?

spare cove
#

Not yet

tiny oar

spare cove
umbral hearth

tiny oar
#

ye

#

but we cant have nice things it seems

hybrid ore
#

I see both sides; on one hand, crashes are annoying and progress would be quicker.
on the other hand: it's a rogue-lite

spare cove
#

Tbh, I mostly play Descent for the audio logs

tiny oar
#

cant get audiolog if i crash or die before nemesis

tiny oar
#

im not asking to make it easier, just less bullshit

hybrid ore
#

That just kinda sounds like a different genre at that point, but again: I'm super not against it either way. I'll just play a better rogue-lite.

spare cove
#

There's a Youtube channel that goes over Descent audio logs one by one, Lyfe.

I can DM it to you.

tiny oar
#

i know it, i saw it already, but i want them on my acc

spare cove
#

Gotcha

tiny oar
#

i just wished game would be better overall

#

cause really descent aint fun man

spare cove
#

That's unfortunate

tiny oar
#

ye

#

its sad cause i fucking love rogue lites, and i fucking love division

#

but they somehow fked it up

spare cove
#

Well, I don't know what it was like in Y5S1, but I heard some positive impressions about it during its PTS.

tiny oar
#

there is so much that is bad about it

#

the balance is worse than the normal game, the defensive stats are basically useless vs bosses

spare cove
#

I'm aware

#

I'm supposed to hate it, especially with the talent rotations. Yet somehow, I adapt.

I probably enjoy torturing myself

tiny oar
#

the talents are okay-ish tbh

#

the problem is the damage output of npc

#

0.2s out of cover and you're dead without the anti oneshot mechanic

#

thats fked

#

even blue cores dont help

kind veldt
#

i do like the exotic implementation with the talents letting you fuck around with unusual combos

tiny oar
#

the exotic talents are kinda nice, and thats neat

#

they really change a run

spare cove
#

My favorite Exotic talents in the mode are Breathe Free, Incessent Chatter, and Doctor Home.

Haven't tried Regecide yet.

tiny oar
#

i like diamondback

fair lake
#

Don't sleep on adaptive instincts

spare cove
#

I haven't seen Diamondback used in most PvE content, so I don't know if its good.

tiny oar
#

diamondback is bad cause its on a rifle

#

but put that on an ar or an smg

#

and oh boy, it shred

spare cove
#

Maybe they should rework the Diamondback to an SMG 😛

tiny oar
#

(and even with only red core and diamond back +60% wpeaon damage from talents i couldnt do more than 20% of a boss hp bar lmao)

#

(on a single mag)

#

its so bad how tanky they are

#

im supposed to delete them

spare cove
#

Its why I usually use Clutch and take cover 😛

tiny oar
#

yeah but you cant use clutch without crit chance

#

and as a basis you have none

#

also clutch wont save you from getting one shot from a random npc lol

spare cove

In my case, I upgraded the base crit chance/crit damage to 10 in the NSA store, so I should be good.

I've had that happen to me at least twice in Div2 where I could give some item to a friendly, but not sure if they dropped anything in return though

It might have been near a resource point though which would explain that option since there you can speed up their gathering process by giving them resources

it def wasnt a control point

there was a single prompt telling me to give 30 food/component/water, something random like a camera/screwdriver/etc

I notice the latest TU absolutely refuses to move you to another server. Used to be when encountering a hacker in the DZ you could log out then back in one, sometimes two times and it would move you to another server. Not anymore. I've tried 10 or 12 times and it keeps putting you right back into the same server.

Looks like Ubi really embraces their most toxic players.

six plus hours, not loop six plus

plush otter

ok, then it was not clear

but acting asif noone plays it is also a bad take

yeah, something terrible has happened to the game or the player if loop 6 took 6 hours

plush otter
#

plenty are fine going deep, and even 6+ is going to get you into 35-40, much further than is needed for good rewards

azure lintel
#

thats been my experience. I guess I cant say for certain, i havent taken a poll of players or anything, but just reading reddit and whatnot it would seem the pool of people who play descent for anything other than the nemesis is already a minority let alone those who would attempt high loops

descent is dead nobody plays is a take too commonly found here sometimes unfortunately Nabnab_sad

the rest of us are actually enjoying way beyond nemesis, as the fun doesnt even really start till 10+

guess then noone plays the game either, we dont have stats there either

Beware of the All Seeing AI that can wipe everything petter

#

locking blueprints for useful items behind the most unfriendly and unenjoyable/unpleasant activity in the entire game, where you have to spend hours and hours without any save point, losing all your progress if the game crashes or disconnect from server (which is happening a lot), that's a winning move indeed 🤔

let alone talents rotation which is the worst move ever

hard not to be negative with so many things that are wrong currently. I try so much to be in a mindset where i give time to the devs and I just try to enjoy the game, which honestly I enjoy the game. But when I am having a ton of fun and the game randomly crashes at that moment that fully ruins the fun, just to show one example (that happened twice today already)
Idk, I just think its a lot of wasted potential, its something good that could be great if that makes sense
(then again i'm probably frustrated as a crash just happened while i was having fun 💀 )

that's usual business these days, they messed up big time the aggro radius, all activities interfere each other, no matter what

#

different factions patrols/convoys crossing their paths exactly in the moment when you are passing by specifically that area, not earlier, not later, exactly when you are there in the middle of them

#

more on this, sometimes they are literally spawning from thin air

#

not to say they are seeing you from the other side of the map, while you can't see them

Activities crossing over with each other has been a thing for years, AFAWK it's intentional.

there are a few cases, most of them in West Potomac Park, between Washington Monument and Tidal Basin, where they are crowded and very close each other

#

in NYC never happened that two adjacent activities to interfere

now is happening there too

they surely messed up something, probably aggro radius

iirc it happened before, a few years ago

never said ”everyone hates it”

plush otter
#

trying to appeal to popularity is a bad take by itself anyway, its likely half of people dislike whatever you like, that is the vocal masses jsut yelling into the void without even know anything

Me? I dislike Survival from div1. Can not stand it. I don't claim that it's bad.

plush otter
#

so here is a question, have you played descent any?

still temple
hybrid ore
#

Do you mind editing that to use less commas? It looks like you are saying that you have a friend who does play it, but then say that they don't.

plush otter
#

so you have a opinion on a thing that you barely know or understand, you are just parroting others then?
kinda like all those comments you bring up.....
go play it, you may find you may like it

hybrid ore
#

Okay easy solution: do you like rogue-lite games? Like Dead Cells, Hades, etc?

#

If yes: you might like Descent.
if no: you likely won't.

still temple
plush otter
#

and you aren't in a position to have a educated opinion about descent

still temple
#

never said that

plush otter
#

should i link you back to your first comment........

still temple
#

I said it's unfriendly and unenjoyable/unpleasant

hybrid ore
#

You've not played it since the PTS, how do you know beyond reading comments?

still temple
#

I have feedback at first hand from my friend who is playing it

hybrid ore
#

firsthand means personal experience.

#

what you have is second-hand.

still temple
#

he doesn't enjoy it also, the only reason he played that mode was the missing blueprints

plush otter
#

and here is my n=1, its pretty friendly, and enjoyable and pretty pleasant, so what now?

#

....."first hand"..... i dont think you know what that means.....

#

If you don't want to have a discussion with people, it's best to not use a forum where anyone can post a comment.
If you really don't want to be notified, just disable replies.

#

If you do neither, expect people to comment on what you say. That is the entire idea of this place.

easiest is to just find a video on YT for it, the quest hasnt ever changed so they are all still relevant, and will likely have the keychest positions in viaul form on the map.

Lucky! You should work on raising your difficulty up towards Challenging ASAP, make sure that the stuff you get is actually usable in a build.

Easiest way is to just open the spreadsheet that's 📌 pinned over in #td2-build-advice and copy one that looks like fun.

Challenging Summit, what’s the likelihood of getting an exotic 😂 new to game sorry

plush otter
drifting shale
#

So brazen can give a potential 32 % amplified damage

plush otter
# stark palm Challenging Summit, what’s the likelihood of getting an exotic 😂 new to game so...

if you do 15 floors, 100% as you will complete the summit project that gives an exotic cache, also if you are new to it, then doing 5 challenges rewards the capacitor exotic.
drop rate wise it is pretty low in the summit, if you want to go after exotics, overall countdown is the way to go, matchmake on challenging and you will see a rare drop here and there, but you will get currency to buy exotic caches, also with the current global event you can do its challenges for a few exotic caches.

drifting shale
#

That's really decent actually... hmm

plush otter
#

8 x 3%, so 24%

stark palm
#

I completed summit on novice 😎

drifting shale
#

It gives an extra 8% for a killing blow

plush otter
#

that wording is wrong, you dont get extra damage for a kill, they likely meant that you get a full stack that used to be 8% for a kill, as after a kill you get a full stack. but that is not unique to perfect.

#

in testing it is 24% even after a kill to be clear.

drifting shale
#

Regardless it's a really decent talent

#

At least imo

plush otter
#

yeah, it work well, we will have to see how they fix its current issue, and what will remain after that fix to say if it really will work well after

is dx12 render good?

#

last time I tried it my games performance was not good

plush otter

dx 12 is hit or miss, for me and many others i know it is better performance and doesnt cause issues, but i know one that will always crash a few mins in with dx12, and a few others that report worse performance with 12, and prefer 11. but i know also someone that crashes more on 11.
it is a setting to try out, as it is system and setup specific results and see what your own results are, if its worse then stick to 11.

@supple niche i dont belive so, i remember hearing something to the effect of a rotating effect from the enemies. Ex. If cleaners are say on foggy bottom they will rotate themselves around the map. Idk if they implemented it yet, however i believe they have, only evidence o have if i had 4 cp cleared out, and now there not.

@supple niche nvm

Does anyone happen to lnow if the bug that bans you from using the crafting bench is fixed???

if you a decent gpu yes, it helps frame interval times,

# sinful dirge what should I have my anisotropic filtering at

16x(max) should be fine if you have a modern card, that one isn't much of a resource hog on modern cards, it is more other settings that can lower frames, but also keep in mind that div2 is a pretty old game, it should run fine on even moderate systems.

oh, you are back already, awesome, and yeah tottally, i was only going after your negativity, not your blatant obvious bad takes, you say you understand how things work after a discussion where you showed you talked about something that you didnt know anything about, and very condfidently, get out of here with that dumb stance. you have NO experience about the thing you were talking about, that was the issue old geezer. just parroting others like a boomer.

#

and you said no truth for anybody to need to handle, so literally nothing you said there was correct, except calling yourself old, which i am going to question but i cant really prove trough the internet anyway, so that will be my only takeaway

#

and then also acting as if getting called out is toxic, not the vitriolic toxicity you tried to spread...... you know what, i may believe you are old after all

I've come here to rant so feel free not to read. First can someone please tell me why these entitled cry babies are so up in arms about the state of the game? All I hear constantly is whining about how unplayable the game is but there just wrong. I've been here since day 1 launch I even got the £90 darkzone special edition of the game and it was money well spent for 6 years of continued support of the game. So why do these ppl and YT feel the need to bash the game the only bugs that actively affect the game is clan exp and guns sometimes not having audio other than that I've run into no other bugs. And everybody knows the divison team developers are run thin and are well under staffed so give them some time to breathe and work on the game give them support instead of wanting there head on a stick.... OK I'm done now 🙂

real moth
#

People are passionate about the game, and they're allowed to speak about things that negatively affect their experience. I think the main critique is aimed at upper management of the game, who devote resources to changes nobody realla asked for (seasons 2.0, descent talent rotation...) instead of fixing bugs, of which there really are quite many. In terms of bugs, the game is in probably the worst state it's been in in a while. I mean we've had halved skill damage and healing on raids for 2 weeks. That's pretty significant tbh.

The main concern at the moment is how quiet they have been about multiple topics.

You're hearing opinions, discussions and complaints all mixed in the same channels (here, twitter, YouTube, Facebook groups etc) so it's coming off as general complaining versus feedback because most of it hasn't been positive, especially with the recent seasons announcement, and the FAQ article didn't help either.

Do you not express or share any other concerns about the state of the game right now or is it a case of the beer goggles effect?

What's the best exotic farming method? I would always just farm countdown but finding a lobby is damn near impossible these days

Thats the easiest

its either countdown. event or descent. Prefer descent if you still have some bp you didnt unlocked yet.

Ah ok, I was tryna queue for normal and hard.

frosty wadi
#

You should never be queuing for that

errant ember

queue for challenging and heroic. Will always have team there

The way difficulty works in div2, is that when you play on Challenging or above, enemies only drop gold/gearset/exotic loot.

just unlock the req exotics u need to craft then farm them like normal in countdown. Just don't ever pick up the crafting parts again...

Technically speaking, once you've collected the blueprint (which is available from GWH once you have any 2 parts) the gun drops via TL (targeted loot).

already have that, I just randomly pick up the sniper that u need to destroy to get the part

and it ended up locking me out of the TL xd

Adrestia has nothing to do with the rest of the farm once you've collected it.
