[remote pecan]

everything from priority objectives that gives you modifiers

[stoic reef]

yeahhh… i’m blanking. i’m mid ranked match on siege mb

[stark heron]

2.5x damage multi on body shot, grows by 0.5x per concurrent body shot, resets on headshot

[vale grove]

To scrutinise someone is to examine or look closely into something

For example if something is under scrutiny, people are keeping a close eye in it. For example, Ubisoft.

[dark sand]

I see on events timeline .. there are two 3xp event, seperated together and one currently we are all doing and two 5 xp events seperated together as well .. and really happy we still have hollywood, golden bullet, and shd exposed still no changes there

[stark heron]

Tapper is just buffing the headhunter determined build (150% more headshot damage at the cost of body shots being way less effective long range)

[vale grove]

Events are looking good.

Wonder when the new dlc will drop

[stark heron]

All of these passives are good damn

[stoic reef]

2040 probably

[vale grove]

We’ll get GTA 6 before another story dlc

[fallow idol]

Game unavailable? Just tried logging in

[stoic reef]

real. i’m tired of just doing control point for the seasons. it feels bland to me

[vale grove]

Hence why this update is great

[stark heron]

Allegedly brooklyn drops april 2025, gta 6 is predicted winter 2025

[stark heron]

Yep

[stoic reef]

no way

[vale grove]

Not just control points princess

[stoic reef]

anymore

[vale grove]

Something to look forward to then

Really hope GTA 6 will be good

[stoic reef]

now when i’m waiting on division to drop another dlc i can plan gta

[dark sand]

Am really surprised season 2 will last 20 weeks and 6 days .. I guess season 3 is still in a work in progress

[vale grove]

I just want more space exploration games on console tbf. Like Star Citizen

[fickle edge]

requital should have a damage cap or something when it's on a named enemy

[dark sand]

God I remember that game had trailer in the past and had so many named actors .. my only problem was if the story is good to include them as well the graphics look nice (squadron 42 taking place in star citizen universe)

[hexed wyvern]

Same here. Really is a shame. fr

[fickle edge]

Next season comes out with dlc

March 2025 is 21 weeks from today

[dark sand]

Yessir ... my birthday is April 30th 2002

[stoic reef]

confirmed on what day in march?

[dark sand]

If they delay I will check it out on youtube or google site

[stark heron]

Oh interesting
Picaros Holsters attribute is no longer 15% weapon damage, now its 10%

[fickle edge]

No confirmation cause they can extend seasons if needed but mar 25 is the Tuesday after season ends

[stoic reef]

nice, about a week after my birthday

[dark sand]

Oh yeah chat Y'know that part manhunt and going to scouts and it shows activity .. it feels like one of those puzzle games to recognize a place or know what you are supposed to do without they telling you in a way

[hexed zephyr]

does the storyline not matter anymore with the new updates? wasnt keener pronounced dead by isac and we have his watch and now magically he's back in the manhunts and now is in the basement of the white house (with his watch) 😭 im so confused and didnt we also defeat theo and everyone else

[kind veldt]

did you play hte last two seasons?

[hexed zephyr]

givin me a headache

[stark heron]

Basically decoy tech was way more advanced

[dark sand]

I really recommend watching the comms in order during each legacy manhunt .. it will make sense

[hot wigeon]

Theo used decoy tech to help Aaron fake his death

[stark heron]

And well his own

[hexed zephyr]

decoy tech, makes sense now

[stark heron]

Fooled us with the shittier decoy to get away with using a more advanced one

[stoic reef]

what about the other two?

[stark heron]

Afaik they are dead dead

And you mean the other three

Literally just theo and keener alive that we know of rn

[stoic reef]

three?

it’s been too long man

[dark sand]

Yeah kajika, vivian, and dragov are actually dead

[stark heron]

Kajika, conley, and the dude from wall street

[stoic reef]

i forgot kajika. that who

[dark sand]

I was surprised they are actually dead .. but the comms explained why and it makes more sense

[stoic reef]

“the only one they took alive, why is that?”

[ebon steeple]

The devs in their infinite wisdom ruined countdown, half the lobby left after 2 objectives

[dark sand]

I might be wrong but I believe it was in live division 2 with devs releasing shades of red yesterday that Faye Lau is actually confirmed to be dead and she actually got killed for real but I might be wrong there

I can see Jupiter being alive as the comms explained .. Jupiter heard Aaron Keener left theo for dead but it was a fake .. and she also said Keener actually found a way .. the what way we do not know of hopefully season 3 or the dlc actually

[shut cipher]

What's the second activitie for theo

[grand dove]

I'm disappointed Conley is dead, only one I cared about from new york

[hexed zephyr]

if it was decoy then how tf do we have his watch? cant get that from a hologram thats the only thing. Unless im thinking just a bit too far with the details

[dark sand]

I got you homeboy

[dark sand]

In the comm it showed jupiter really liked conley .. and we did a manhunt on her and she really did care for her .. and Aaron Keener knows and we better make sure her life wasn't a failure (somewhere around those words)

[stoic reef]

maybe just ubisoft bull?

[grand dove]

Yeah I only know her from the wony campaign. This is my first season/manhunt

[hexed zephyr]

dunno, interesting nonetheless

[dark sand]

oh shii .. I may have spoiled it for you .. the comm was like in Season 5 year 3 I think

[stoic reef]

yeah, maybe just so ubi can have us level up, or they didn’t think the entire story out at once

[shut cipher]

??

[grand dove]

I mean at this point I've been spoiled on so much stuff in the game so not much point caring about the story

[stoic reef]

donate 100 resources to the control point

[shut cipher]

Appreciate you 🙏

[stoic reef]

someone told me too 😭🙏

[dark sand]

Its really good .. there were certain issue like maybe recruiter and aaron keener maybe brought too soon .. but it is what it is .. I still like it

[grand dove]

I'm sure it is, but not as easy to be immersed when I've missed most of it and been spoiled

[dark sand]

oh yeah for Week 1 Scout in activity 2 .. the clue is to share resouce to control officer at control point

[stoic reef]

do the past manhunt missions. not as story involved but i think it might give a better grasp for a first hand experience

[cyan roost]

lead by example hint?

[stoic reef]

3 activities in foggy bottom

[dark sand]

Yeah I get what you mean .. it wouldv'e been better if you were there during that time as now .. you gotta try keep up or get to know of information of now .. its like an assignment in a way at school

[cyan roost]

thank you! ❤️

[dark sand]

Do 3 activities at Foggy bottom .. any is good save hostages, aerial recon, territory control, pretty much any activity .. also 3 activities have to be seperate different saving hostages 3 times doesn't seem to work and thank @stoic reef for the help .. itadakimasu

[stoic reef]

ngl it said save lives so i only did hostages 😭

[dark sand]

aw really .. so saving 3 hostage in 3 activities don't work .. that riddle is very confusing

[stoic reef]

i tried to save lives 😔

[dark sand]

we shoudv'e saved lives

😕

[stoic reef]

but we only found ourselves working with the bad guy

[dark sand]

😞

[crude tartan]

tjeez the modern m1 kicks lmao, also that spraid

[stoic reef]

i was hoping we would be able to switch to a cool rouge watch and get ANNA as our primary ai…

[crude tartan]

is it m14 ig or?
i only have the named version

[stoic reef]

like a switch between em

[ember gale]

i think there is a bug with the deconstruct. I cannot deconstruct my items via right click

[stark heron]

Oh no lmao

Already locked out of one of the journey 2 tasks cause of the xp thing

[stoic reef]

what’s that?

[stark heron]

Well Im already level 100 and claimed all rewards

[keen cobalt]

How are you at 100 already??

[stoic reef]

no way.

[stark heron]

Xp is glitched

I did the scout mission already, did some prio objectives

[stoic reef]

teach me

[stark heron]

Gained like 20 levels per prio

[tiny oar]

just do scouts

[stark heron]

Though people have said the level gain varies dramatically

[stoic reef]

i did one and got like 1000 exp

[keen cobalt]

Yeah I’ve done scout and few prios but sure didnt get that much per prio

[stark heron]

Varies from person to person

Some people managed to get from level 1 to 100 instantly

RogueGold notably

45 minutes into his latest stream

[keen cobalt]

Thats wild. I wonder what triggers this..

[stoic reef]

i wish

[stark heron]

The xp gain seemed heavily delayed

No clue either tbh

[wise basalt]

how do u pick up other modifiers?

[stoic reef]

maybe difficulty?

[stark heron]

Passives can appear in the prio objective pool

[stoic reef]

oh, i just went up 5 season levels

[stark heron]

Allegedly so can active ones but I can't confirm that

Active ones are from journey 4 to 7 guaranteed

My god these modifiers let me actually cheese rogues

[stoic reef]

which mods do you have on

[stoic reef]

☝️

[stark heron]

As of right now, By the Teeth and Bait and Switch

Pressure Piston is the reward from my next prio so I'll be putting that on

By the Teeth is letting me hit 3 million per body shot at long range

With a rifle

[stoic reef]

i haven’t looked into them but are there any good ones for a all red smg build?

[stark heron]

Pressure Piston for stability assuming you have enemies in medium range

By the Teeth for scaling damage on long range body shots

Persistence for movement speed/accuracy/reload

Liability if you want to shred armored targets more easily in close range

Retribution can work since that's crit chance if you build up damage stacks in medium range

[astral jacinth]

How do I get the True Sons Redeemed backpack in the pass track?

[stoic reef]

thanks 🙏 i will be working on to get those especially retribution and pressure piston

[stark heron]

Afaik thats a premium reward

[stoic reef]

i went from season 25 to 58 just by doing the air and space museum mission 😳 i understand now

[astral jacinth]

Looks like we have less overall free rewards on the season track now

[frosty wadi]

Exactly what I expected tbf

I honestly don’t know what to think of this battlepass

I can’t tell if its good or bad

[astral jacinth]

and the season track looks like its designed to be more psychologically fomo

[frosty wadi]

Yea

Doesn’t seem we are getting a normal apparel even outside of that stalker crossover

So that sucks

[astral jacinth]

yeah seems they are locking that behind the store now

[lean shadow]

There is a bug dudes

[frosty wadi]

??

[lean shadow]

level 100 of pass

in like 1 hour

[frosty wadi]

Okay?

[lean shadow]

but i should be 9

[stoic reef]

i think the exp is exponential by accident

i went from 20 to 58 then to 100 from only 2 objectives

[lean shadow]

similar

[fading cave]

this update lowkey crazy all that time put into them watches to all of a sudden get one tapped by purples

idk what yall was trying to do but this a smack in the face.

[frosty wadi]

You are not getting one tapped by purples, pay attention to the modifiers

[lean shadow]

dude purples yellows and red deal the same amount of damage dont be surprised. especially rushers with shotgun they can (almost) one tap you

Except the one tap mechanic doesnt exist in this game for the NPC

You always get a ''warning'' shot

Like ''oh damn i have no healt or armor''

[fading cave]

maxed watched god rolled gear

no reason for all that.

[frosty wadi]

^

[lean shadow]

yeye like i play with grey gear

[frosty wadi]

Check your modifiers, your gear has nothing to do with it

[odd totem]

Is it a 3x xp event up until a certain amount of shd lvls are gained?

[stoic reef]

nope till tuesday

[odd totem]

Oh wow I thought they were gonna cap it

[stoic reef]

wrong devs

[frosty wadi]

The probably did, just assume its 100

Unless stated otherwise

[grave fox]

its 1000 levels

[odd totem]

Are u serious or just trolling?

[grave fox]

it says it on the event

700kk xp

equals 1k levels

[odd totem]

Ohhh ok

[stoic reef]

oh i don’t read it

i never get close to 1000 anyways

[grave fox]

gotta do public executions challenging all directives with fast builds

[odd totem]

I do heroic with all directives

[stoic reef]

nah i just can’t find anyone to rub with

[odd totem]

It’s not hard with a hotshot build

[lunar hare]

Let me tell you that THIS isn't the most efficient way to farm xp. We've done the maths.

[grave fox]

so whats the most effective in your opinion?

[odd totem]

Yea I’m curious to know as well

[lunar hare]

Popular opinion here, pinned in #ask-td2-community

[celest marten]

Can someone enlighten me as to why the new gear set is NOT in the season pass?

[stoic reef]

it isn’t?

[celest marten]

I didn't see it in any of the reward tiers, or maybe it was buried in there and I'm blind.

[stoic reef]

i think it’s the gold gear in there

[grave fox]

i really doubt farming cps is faster than public executions

im going by personal experience and rambobs spreadsheets

[celest marten]

So the UI is just dogshit

[grave fox]

he records xp live on stream

[lunar hare]

Faster than doing Challenging PE's, yes it is.

[stoic reef]

yeah. and it might be the exotics in there too, i think they are new

[grave fox]

its also very depending on personal performance

[celest marten]

SO is the brand set in there or not? I thought that was what the gold equipment was

[stoic reef]

i haven’t seen a new brand set, no

not a single brand set in the battlepass

[lunar hare]

You can say you doubt the best method, but it's been proven by a lot of people, including me

[rare vapor]

🤷‍♂️

[stoic reef]

people don’t run CPs?

[lunar hare]

Because they say it's boring and repetitive

[grave fox]

naah its just not as fast :D

[hybrid ore]

By all means, farm XP however you like, but CP's are mathematically the best method, and if there's one thing the weirdos in this server know: it's how to math out playing less.

[celest marten]

Did no one at Massive check and see "Wait a sec, we colored brand sets gold and Gear sets green? Shit."

[stoic reef]

it’s called virtuoso. you can get it from countdown (of course) and the coney island amusement park mission

it’s just not in battlepass this time

[kind veldt]

pretyt sure it is

[stoic reef]

i don’t see it only holds

[frosty wadi]

They aren’t green

[stoic reef]

and named ones

[celest marten]

Ok, so the brand set is in the battlepass, and the gear set is in the Season journey

[kind veldt]

are we talking about BRAND or GEAR set, just ot be sure

[lunar hare]

Agreed, you do you, but if you want the highest amount of xp in less time, the method is open to everyone

[stoic reef]

you got me confused now, please use colors

[hybrid ore]

Said with the utmost love, of course.

[hybrid ore]

Colourblind mode exists, they may be confusing it due to that.

Gearsets are blue in there.

[celest marten]

Gold gear in season pass, Green gear in season journey thing

[stoic reef]

mines teal

[grave fox]

i personally only trust a handful of people on official servers :D somebody on official servers saying they math'd somnething out doesnt mean much to me :D especially when there are speedrunners live on twitch proving those calculations wrong :D but you do you ofc

[frosty wadi]

They can even be lavender which is what I like to use

[lunar hare]

And I know this, we aren't machines that can do anything without committing mistakes

[stoic reef]

okay. high-end armor is in the battlepass, and gear sets are in journey, yes. gear sets are not in the battlepass this season

[hybrid ore]

That exact reason is exactly why the math is readily available on how to work out the best method.

div2's average long term player-base is at about a "likes model train sets" age. Boring math worked out is their entire thing.

[rose lynx]

How do you unlock the Castle

[azure lintel]

whats wrong with his game i only see *itches name XDDD

[hybrid ore]

The problem with using any kind of video as your primary evidence of the effectiveness of something, is that a lot can be deceptive or even just confused by the person making it.
Using Countdown to test builds, teammates altering the outcomes, the shooting range, etc, etc.

[celest marten]

Kinda annoying that "Looting as junk" doesn't count towards season journey "Loot gear" tick box

[lunar hare]

You don't but I have heard and seen, that if you complete WoNY it'll be unlocked? Maybe it's just a dumb theory

[celest marten]

when most loot I'm getting is going straight in the expertise grinder

[hybrid ore]

Pardon?

[azure lintel]

i doing bounty

[rose lynx]

Okay thanks 😊

[azure lintel]

and i saw congress bitches XD

[stoic reef]

i’m so mad at this game. i can’t progress the journey 2 because i already claimed all battlepass rewards… 😐

[hybrid ore]

In the story, The Castle was only rebuilt post-WONY, so that tracks.

[lunar hare]

I didn't follow the story at all tbh

[hybrid ore]

You should, it's getting to the "illuminati did it" phase, and I am here for the weird.

[ebon steeple]

Did strega have a functional scope in pts?

[lunar hare]

now you're really getting me to play the whole shi again
ty, I'll do that this weekend

[ebon steeple]

Cuz it's got a st Elmo scope rn

[lunar hare]

not the Elmo's scope

[amber basin]

So you can't play with an open group anymore because when someone with the modifier crap turned on joins the group it'll turn that bs on for everyone. That's great game design right there

[frosty wadi]

Wait didn’t they explicitly say that it wouldn’t do that

[stoic reef]

dude the new gear sets are looks cool, at least the chest

[frosty wadi]

I was wondering why my modifiers were still on

[kind veldt]

on PTS 2 it did, only found out on the last day

[stoic reef]

dang, it needs a real scope instead of reusing elmo’s zoom in

[main forge]

Where is Wally in the White House?

[azure lintel]

wally is at the castle

[spark ingot]

Is there a way to prevent the people joining my group to have the new season damage mod enabled ? It makes everything so much more difficult (especially the damage return)... And even if I ask them in the chat to disable it they don't care...

[late finch]

What or where is the "Battle Pass"?

[real nest]

The Battle Pass is Locked away in our Hearts, unlock it and seek War

[full zinc]

easy, just dont matchmake. you might be able to find like minded agents in the #lfg-pc and direct invite instead of mm

[spark ingot]

Yeah I figured that. I'm hoping for a in game fix soon tho...

[real nest]

Try just forming your own Groups, make a sensible post that describes what your Playtime will be for the next X amount of time and what you want to get Accomplished and when you state these things, add in that you don't want the modified variables

[spare cove]

Lol, I guess I got the seasonal XP bug as well because I completed two Journey Mission 3 tasks and it jumped me from 60 to 100.

Wonder if MSV is gonna do a rollback about this

[jagged prism]

believe you have an option within the social menu (clicking the social box where you and your group members appear) and set it to something to the effect of not "Open"?

[late bronze]

Has anyone else noticed that the enemy modifers for point blank just straight up don't appear in the game. Number of times i've killed myself because of Requittal

[inner elbow]

I just noticed the new gear blueprints are not in the season pass anymore. how do we even get them?

[late bronze]

And that Umbra initiative is broken af, doesn't work

[spare cove]

Are you talking about the brand set added this season? Cuz each track that rewards them comes with a blueprint

[inner elbow]

yes, in the past they were listed as separate rewards.

[jagged prism]

yeah, think usually the seaon rewards would have the actual item then below it the blue print for the same item

[spare cove]

I know the subreddit isn't end all be all when it comes to feedback. But I hope to god the devs don't listen too closely to the negative feedback coming from em

[jagged prism]

do we want to know what they're saying?

[frosty wadi]

I had to re equip my gear to get it to work again

[inner elbow]

oh nvm I see that the blueprint comes with the item itself

[late bronze]

It doesn't work even when I reequip

[late bronze]

^

[inner elbow]

it's so hard to navigate the new season pass UI

[spare cove]

They're talking about it like its the worst thing ever, for starters

Ngl, I do like the main menu showing our agents with their primary weapon as of this update

[frosty wadi]

You know, this is probably a good time to remind people that they had 5 months of preparation

[jagged prism]

i honestly find this refreshing, but i see a missed opportunity for them too

[inner elbow]

as usual, we don't get the blueprints for the new named items

[exotic panther]

just came back. used the boost. killed the kracker and IT kid. what should i be doing as i level to 40?

[jagged prism]

nah, probably have to play the lottery in Descent

[inner elbow]

not included in the Reconstructed Cache pool, either

[jagged prism]

yet, but once we move to another season probably get added

[full zinc]

dont worry, theyll accidently add them to the heroic cp loot pool again like setup and closer

[spare cove]

That'd be nice

[inner elbow]

I also haven't noticed that

[full zinc]

btw, TDI kard custom available at the cd vendor this week. dz exclusive

[fickle edge]

Multiple enemies with shock and confuse ammo and with special ammo directive oh boy lol

[spare cove]

Grind Countdown to get gear pieces necessary to create builds. Strikers is a good start

[fickle edge]

But yeah these modifiers are meh probably won't use them at all unless I have to like in the season journey

Also how do you get the new exotic fal?

[spare cove]

Master of None is more annoying than Requital

[spare cove]

Season pass. It's at level 69

[jagged prism]

don't forget the new directives when they can set you on fire too

[spare cove]

It's the same one he's talking about. Close range = fire. Long range = shock

[jagged prism]

ah only noticed the fire one, maybe the shocking a couple times but figured "true patriot + Arcabuz De Brazos +ninja bag + St Elmo" was me reflecting that shock back to me

[fickle edge]

I honestly thought we were gonna get crazy modifiers like in global events which warrant ene,ies having all these nonsense

[jagged prism]

🤔 curious about that if the special bullets is in the global modifier then we can experience it all XD

what kind of chaos would that be? the active and passive modifiers from this season, then turning on the global modifiers so we get 25% per 1-5 active

[spare cove]

Global Modifier doesn't have special ammo in itself. But I am interested how special ammo GD would affect the hostile modifiers

[spare cove]

If it was the case, we'd nuke the enemies like its going out of style

[jagged prism]

right global directive

so who's aiming to get the new exotic chest?

[fickle edge]

Can't get it until the mission is out

[spare cove]

And you can only get it via master difficulty, which I expect it to be difficult

[jagged prism]

will it be a specific mission? or is it going to be we can set the current missions we have to Master

[worldly epoch]

I’m gonna try lol.

[spare cove]

Yes, the Manhunt Climax mission

[jagged prism]

oh that's right, they did mention that didn't they? i just listened to a quick snippet of it in rogue gold and was like ohhh an exotic chest we don't know what the talent on it is yet?

[spare cove]

You can't. The Manhunt climax mission isn't out until near the end of the season

[worldly epoch]

I’m aware, but I’m going to try when it comes out.

[spare cove]

Challenger - 35% dmg reduction from enemies within 15m

[jagged prism]

hopefully it won't be a mission where "put on a skill build with turret/drone or couple skills" kind of thing

[exotic panther]

i detect some anti-turret bias

[kind veldt]

considering last few missions kinda nuked skills, i kinda doubt it

but curious whats gonna to make range stuff interesting

[jagged prism]

would be neat. se to master difficulty it has all 10 directives active + specific seasonal modifiers active or maybe all? and it's mostly hunters + rogue agents roaming around XD

[worldly epoch]

I’d give up.

Sick of seeing Rogue Agents lmao.

[jagged prism]

plus you'd get the regular pulse and red pulse (> <)

[rain light]

I may be dense but how does one start a seasonal character? 🤔

[exotic panther]

i'm not 40 yet but my turret seems invincible. big diff from div 1 when it died to a wet fart

[late bronze]

Is it intentional to finish the battle pass in like an hour

[jagged prism]

you don't

[late bronze]

I just jumped on and the entire thing is done

[rain light]

I is very confuse

[jagged prism]

@rain light was a huge back lash about it so devs dropped the mechanic

[kind veldt]

turns out most people dont want some things that take a while to grind or are a pain to get to be nuked every seasons

[rain light]

but.... that was the only reason why it would even be worth coming back to the game.... Wasnt it supposed to be accelerated progress?

whats the point if I just play my maxed character lmao

[worldly epoch]

I went from like 0-54, 55-72, 73-100 in like a few hours.

[exotic panther]

what stops you from making another character without the season?

[jagged prism]

right?

[worldly epoch]

Who knows tbh

[jagged prism]

season 2.0 can be obtained even for people who are level 1

[hybrid ore]

Lvl 30 is where the good stuff kicks in.

[rain light]

I was kind of expecting that most story stuff will be unlocked and then you will be going through different missions and doing tasks/objectives for levels and such

[jagged prism]

at least a streamer was saying you should be able to be level 1 and participate in the seasonal stuff

[worldly epoch]

Cause then they ain’t missing out.

[jagged prism]

nope they were probably going to do the "you start at level 1 doing the same missions from 1-30 and 31-40"

[rain light]

yeah thats cringe, I would never do that, there is no point in reclearing the tedium

[hybrid ore]

The idea with Seasonal Characters is that you would start at 0, but level up incredibly fast with them.

5x normal speed iirc.

[jagged prism]

that's where the back lash came. not many wants to do level 1-40 with the same missions we've been doing all this time. i wouldn't to be honest

[rain light]

Yeah that would make sense, increased droprate, different modifiers and challenges for mission, story content fully unlocked, but you can just switch between seasonal and main, have like a condensed 3 month experience, trying out different builds based on modifiers....

[hybrid ore]

Well when the Season was almost over, you'd be able to transfer all the loot to your main characters. So nothing would be lost.

[rain light]

if they were going to just do 1-40 then its good it never came to pass, but this is depressing, another "major" non content update

[jagged prism]

if us pack rats (hoarders) have the room to do so XD

[exotic panther]

the 1-30 game ain't as engaging as a typical arpg or mmorpg that has reset seasons. the first division has a better leveling experience in that regard

[hybrid ore]

I was kind of looking forward to the system, but people are people so

[rain light]

I cant beleave backlash from the 3 people that still played this game had this much impact

[exotic panther]

i was so bored doing 1-30 when i came back the other day i popped the free boost from having the expansion

[rain light]

its already half a decade old game, pls people, try something new, vanilla flavor is not all thats in life

[dark sand]

I get what you mean

[jagged prism]

i like seasons 2.0

[hybrid ore]

You know you don't have to play it, right?

no one is holding a gun to your head.

[rain light]

Not wrong there

[dark sand]

agreed speak you truth

[jagged prism]

your pfp looks like a gun is at my head though O_O

[exotic panther]

but i logged into division 1 on pc last night when servers were down (my old launch day mains are on my ps4) and the leveling world felt full and lived in vs division 2

[hybrid ore]

@jagged prism How does my pfp look like a gun is at your head?

[jagged prism]

head and the circle looks like a barrel of a gun?

(> <) i know it's not though, just poking fun at you saying noone is holding a gun to their head

[hybrid ore]

....they're called chevrons. You most commonly see them on military uniform shoulders.

[exotic panther]

or on street corners where you get gas

[hybrid ore]

I assume that was the design by the person who created it.

[dark sand]

I am surprised tho .. the daily projects dont give season pass xp only xp

[jagged prism]

you get gas on the street corners? i usually see uh professionals on the street corners here

[jagged prism]

they didn't touch the projects

[hybrid ore]

Somehow I don't think that the hunter mask surrounded by chevrons was meant to indicate a petrol station.

[late bronze]

It's clearly a representation of that meme of five guys surrounding that girl

[hybrid ore]

.....it's the lesbian flag colours, dude.

swing and a miss there.

[kind veldt]

weekly projects do give seasonal XP

[late bronze]

Do you mean me?

[jagged prism]

i barely looked at them honestly other than finishing the usual weekly shd one and seeing what the others were

[quaint prairie]

how fast is it to level up this season?

[hybrid ore]

Same speed as before: Control Points on Heroic w/5 Directives is still the meta method.

[quaint prairie]

okay thanks

[dull cypress]

if season pass just do priority objs that are missions on heroic and you'll be done in 3

[kind veldt]

control points give seasonal XP?

[dark sand]

its strange .. all the rest have season pass xp on projects except daily, dark zone, ...

[quaint prairie]

done in 3?

wdym like 3 missions?

[kind veldt]

three fiddy

[dull cypress]

done in 3 missions yeah

[quaint prairie]

whaaa full season pass ?

[dull cypress]

need a loch ness emoji lmfao

[dull cypress]

yes its a bug rn

[hybrid ore]

Y'all know it's going to be reverted, right?

[quaint prairie]

betty finna do it rn before it gets pactched

why would they revert the levels?

[dark sand]

yessir

[jagged prism]

might get rolled back when it gets patched too you know?

[hybrid ore]

There is 0 chance of MSV leaving that as maxed out on day 1 of the new Season if there is any chance of fixing it.

[dark sand]

take advantage while its steaming hot

[dull cypress]

i mean that'd be really funny

[quaint prairie]

have they don’t that before ?

[hybrid ore]

Reverted xp gained? Yes.

[late bronze]

I actually think it's a great idea to give the battle pass much earlier. Lets you enjoy the season with all the goodies

[hybrid ore]

Reverted to an earlier state of your save? yes.

[quaint prairie]

boi ain’t no way boi

[hybrid ore]

Banned forever for using exploits? Yes.

[dull cypress]

i mean we were able to do it before with convoy farming in a day

[hybrid ore]

It's a very different case now.

[quaint prairie]

surely can’t get banned doing that tho

[kind veldt]

i mean it would be a bit of a poop move to make people do the scouts and collect modifiers again

[late bronze]

What? They're going to revert everyone's saves to the beginning of the season because they messed up the battle pass xp?

[hybrid ore]

If you intentionally perform an action, repeatedly to exploit the game systems, they will give out a fair warning to everyone first, then a 2 week ban, then forever.

That's what they did with Lau.

[late bronze]

That's pretty dog

[hybrid ore]

You cheat, you get punished.

[kind veldt]

have they announced anything about current situation or still speculative?

becase as far as i know it's random no?

[hybrid ore]

Oh this is just based on exploits, this won't be the case here.

it'll just be a rollback at worst.

[late bronze]

Can you please link where the devs have said this?

[jagged prism]

nods i feel if they patch the season xp thing people's xp will get roll back to 0

[dark sand]

Oh that is so neat .. I just learned something if you go to activities and and press on pc F .. show objective it can switch to riddle or switch to area you need to go

[hybrid ore]

Banned for using exploits? We got an ingame message about it a Season or so back.
As I said, that won't be the case with this though.

[dull cypress]

i dont really care if they pull a rollback ill still play
Idk bout the majority though

might rile up a whole subreddit (as usual)

[jagged prism]

oh a majority will be pissed

[late bronze]

The devs said they won't? Cool. Can you link?

[hybrid ore]

......

[late bronze]

Wanna check before I keep going with builds

No point if they gonna revert like you said before

[hybrid ore]

okay I need to go take a breather before I snap something.

[dull cypress]

praying for u rivens LOL

[late bronze]

Well that's not nice

[quaint prairie]

wha tha heckler

[late bronze]

I'm just trying to clarify, a revert of this season is a pretty big deal

[dull cypress]

@late bronze it's speculation at this point nobody knows whats gonna happen and iirc they havent mentioned it anywhere

[exotic panther]

what does this number mean?

oh i can't paste images

[kind veldt]

as far as i am aware there is no dev announcement regarding current XP stuff

[late bronze]

That's all I needed to hear, thanks for clarifying

[elfin hazel]

you can post images in #ask-td2-community

[kind veldt]

there has been case of oopsies or exploit that caused rollbacks

[exotic panther]

next to my turret there is a number. currently says 10. what does it mean?

[jagged prism]

and pretty sure rivens has mentioned it to you and you keep asking like a troll wanting "proof"

[wild gate]

tbf if someone does it once and gets rolled back that’s just not it

it is a challenge after all

[kind veldt]

think he got confused wether this was the case with the current situation of seasons XP being bugged or not

[late bronze]

Yeah I wanted to see the article of the devs if they had said they were doing a rollback, so I could understand why and let all my friends know

[elfin hazel]

its not about doing it once its more about doing it repeatedly

[wild gate]

they shouldn’t

now if you do it more than twice

[quaint prairie]

you said priority objectives mission?

[dull cypress]

yep

[late bronze]

I haven't been on in a long time, was last on when Iron Horse was new. A rollback of the season is pretty serious, was just tryna understand bro, chill

[quaint prairie]

i got a stronghold so ima do that on heroic with 4 objectives and see if it does it

[dull cypress]

its not that serious lol

[jagged prism]

here's an example if you need one
there was a season where people were able to use an Oxidizer build to quickly kill mobs leaving one or 2 spawn spots to gain an insane amount of experience for doing nothing really.
purposely fail the mission just to set up the same method

[wild gate]

nah you’re good they should be fine it’s just a matter of how inconsistent rollbacks can be and when it’ll happen

[dull cypress]

it wont work i think

[jagged prism]

those people got a warning and rolled back on experience

[wild gate]

won’t work

[elfin hazel]

so is premium+ just 20 "free" levels that comes with the pack or what

[dull cypress]

yeah and an outfit gunskin and 500 creds

[wild gate]

so really nothing worth $30

it’s overpriced

[dull cypress]

yep just get it if you wanna support the devs more

(i hope that's where it actually goes)

[wild gate]

if you ever charge $30 for a season pass it better have blackcell levels of content

[dull cypress]

oh a fellow blackcell enjoyer LMFAOO

[wild gate]

I haven’t bought it in forever but for $30 they give a lot

[elfin hazel]

even if it doesn't go to the devs its still telling the higher ups there is demand for the game which does make its way back to the devs eventually

[dull cypress]

with how messed up the industry is I really hope that's the case

[dull cypress]

ive only skipped one so far (cause I thought it looked boring af for one season)

[exotic panther]

as i'm levelling beyond 30 should i be salvaging everything or selling?

[hybrid ore]

Once you reach Lvl 40, you can start to keep stuff.

Everything before that (except for Exotics) is junk.

[dull cypress]

yep!

[exotic panther]

do i salvage it or just vendor it?

[hybrid ore]

Credits are easy to come by.

[dull cypress]

i'd say salvage for crafting

[exotic panther]

really? i've not had any credits be rewarded yet

[jagged prism]

yes salvage so when you hit 40 you can reconfigure your exotics to level 40

uh oh, someone woke up Rivens (> <)

[hybrid ore]

Materials are an ever-draining resource that you can never have enough of.
Credits will eventually stagnate.

[exotic panther]

? you can make t hem level 40? man i wish i kept that p90 i found at 16

[jagged prism]

exotics......

IE: red beam of light when it drops on the ground

[dull cypress]

the maroon beacon

[jagged prism]

the troll beacon if you're in DZ

[hybrid ore]

"oh hey, another pesti"

[exotic panther]

so like a blood orange color instead of the usual yellow?

[hybrid ore]

It's red.

[jagged prism]

you spelt Exotic Component wrong XD

[quaint prairie]

okay i finally got a mission as my
priority

[twilit karma]

Hey Chat? Where do we log support tickets?

[hybrid ore]

🔴 that's your Exotic Beason.

[quaint prairie]

can it be 4 objectives or has to be 5?

[jagged prism]

good question

[hybrid ore]

@twilit karma #unofficial-troubleshooting > 📌 pinned-message.

[exotic panther]

i have an item that's red'ish marked high-end. lupus chestplate. it's level 40. it that an 'exotic'?

[hybrid ore]

The item's colour doesn't matter lol.

[exotic panther]

then what you all talking about

[hybrid ore]

That's an Exotic item being dropped.

[exotic panther]

is it labelled as an exotic item in the description? because i got a red item like that but it's labelled 'high-end'

[hybrid ore]

It says "exotic" below the name on the right-hand side.

e.g.

[exotic panther]

ok then this is confusing. not to mention that beam is more pinkish than red on a photo calibrated monitor

[hybrid ore]

Yeah their colour settings are a bit odd, but it's quicker than me farming out a fresh one.

it is somewhat more salmon than red-red.

[molten verge]

which exotics shoudl i try to get

[shut cipher]

How do I counter the mf's that when I shoot them I shoot myself ?

[molten verge]

dont shoot then :)

[hybrid ore]

Coyotes and Memento are both pretty great and not complicated to get.
Countdown: Targeted Loot: Mask/Backpack respectively, challenging or above.
and then buy a cache from the vendor every 2-3 runs for more chances.

Ignore any missions that promise it as a drop.

[molten verge]

already have both

what other exotics can i try to get

[hybrid ore]

Backfire is strong now.

Nemesis is always fun, Mantis is too.

[molten verge]

glad i didnt sell backfire

I saw the self damage and went hell naw

[hybrid ore]

You should always keep 1 copy of an Exotic, juuuuust in case.

[molten verge]

thats kinda what i do now, I collect exotics

still trying to make a SMG based PVP build, idk if its worth it

[hybrid ore]

The folks down in #td2-pvp-discussions would be the best ones to ask. Don't mind the rowdiness.

[kind veldt]

damage only reflects if you are in "mid/yellow" range

[jagged prism]

nods having one of each exotic helps a lot

[smoky meteor]

Are all blue mods now just protection from elites? Or am I just getting lucky with every single one, despite them having a bunch of different names?

[exotic panther]

i've noticed a few mobs with bow and arrow. is that an available weapon to us?

[smoky meteor]

Technically no. There is a Specialization that has a Crossbow though.

[jade dome]

Anyone know what fractal is ?

[exotic panther]

a dungeon in guild wars 2?

[jade dome]

No when I complete the manhunt for the week the reward says fractal but idk what that is

Nvm I figured it out it’s the name of comm for the season

[twilit karma]

thanks

[tiny musk]

Didn't realize the game even had a discord.

[exotic panther]

does +repair skill mods affect the +armor on kill from gunner at all?

[jagged prism]

i wouldn't say it would, but it might just a very tiny amount?

[hybrid ore]

It's the first comm from this Season, it's a type of shape, I recommend looking it up.

[tiny musk]

@hybrid ore Thank you, this agent has come back after some time away.

I also wanna do some fan art with the models soon..but oh boy the shading used by this game is a headache to replicate.

[hybrid ore]

#fanart-and-photomode would love to see it, more fan stuff is always appreciated!

Going by what I've seen on there, most people tend to use a lot of heavy shadows, if that helps.

[tiny musk]

Nice, that and Snowdrop data is insanely hard to read. They stuffed a lot into each player cosmetic.

Although for what its worth, for how much data they stuff into each thing in game, it runs really great no matter what.

[copper quail]

Best rifle rn? I'm juggling between the Police Mk17, UIC and Lightweight M4

[jagged prism]

gasps no exotic rifle as a choice?

[smoky meteor]

Oh man.. That's an arguement starter there...

Personal preference? I like MK17 and the UIC best, the M4 feels wonky.

[jagged prism]

honestly, i rarely used rifles because of how semi auto they were and the lack of damage they provided me in builds i've tried with them

[copper quail]

Nah. Bad drip and wonky perks. Plus, the slot already went to Scorpio

[jagged prism]

think i saw a click bait video on youtube once talking about merciless with the auto rifle change put in, didn't watch it obviously

[smoky meteor]

Merciless is... a thing. I want to love it so badly... But I also want to melt it down into a metal plate to coat the front of my boots.

[shy musk]

wasnt there a list of rifles that they made automatic

trying to find it

[exotic panther]

anyone else being dc'd today?

[hybrid ore]

Merci w/Striker is fun, if you want a "not serious but still can work if you look at it sideways" build.

[jagged prism]

hmmm, merciless + global modifires + umbra gearset?

oh wait, did they change merciless too at somepoint or are we still trying that hit one shot miss second shot mechanic?

[crystal ferry]

i don't understand, yesterday i was playing (lvl 40 already) and was earning XP for my watch a season pass i didn't even now i had. it gave me a blue/green light and it gave me items as rewards each time i leveled up. but today i don't have the season pass anymore. like, i bought the ultimate edition. the ultimate edition comes with a pass for the current season? is that what happened?

my watch and season pass*

[jagged prism]

whoa! someone who lives under a rock!

but what happened is new season, so your last season pass went poof with last season

[crystal ferry]

eh. that sucks.

[jagged prism]

yeah, it sucks you used that pass up for 1 day of season pass

had you come here and asked "i got the ultimate edition with a season pass, should i use it" i'm sure people would've told you save it for today as that season ended yesterday. i know i would've told you that anyways

[exotic panther]

what the hell? i'm doing tghe expansion and am on the tanker mission and there is an invisible wall around it. i can't enter the area from any direction

[jagged prism]

@crystal ferry #server-status message

[exotic panther]

i guess nobody in this discord actually answers new player questions

[crystal ferry]

wait, but i didn't activate anything when i got the game

or you mean, as soon as you start playing after buying the game, the season pass starts?

[jagged prism]

no clue how that works as i had to buy the game normally and the ultimate edition came out long after i was like "not worth spending more money on"

[jagged prism]

if you're referring to the tanker mission invisible wall thing i don't know anything about it

[hexed zephyr]

nah i hit that before, sadly just restart the mission and it will be fine

[sour void]

Tried out Y6S2 today, have two big things to say.

1. Chatterbox with revamped Umbra Initiative with 5 stacks of Incessant Chatter turns it into a CIWS gun until the next reload
2. Oh my God, can we please revert to the XP/SHD level progression of the battle pass?

[hybrid ore]

@exotic panther People not knowing the answer to your question is not the same as them ignoring it.

[exotic panther]

i can't restart the mission and i keep getting delta 03 disconnects. never had one before todays patch

i can't restart what i cant start

[spare cove]

Getting season XP isn't even hard

[hexed zephyr]

delta 03 is to do with your internet, try verifying game files usually fixes most things

[hybrid ore]

The old way of gaining xp was just "do the same thing over and over again until you lose your mind". At least the new way has some variety.

You know, it is going to last 20 weeks. There is 0 reason to rush.

[sour void]

What's the quickest way to do so now? Outside of weekly challenges, that is?

[sour void]

I don't like procrastinating when there's gear on the line, though...

[exotic panther]

i'm also getting a lot of level 40 drops despite being level 35

just saw a reddit level 8 people getting level 40 drops

[sour void]

Also, I noticed that my Battle Pass Level jumped from 5 to 20 during my Journey Mission runs.

Not sure what gave me enough Season XP to boost me that high.

[hybrid ore]

Bug

[sour void]

Ah, well...

There goes trying to grind it, I guess.

[crystal ferry]

seriously, F Ubisoft with this season pass stuff.

[strong forge]

Any1 else getting random DCs?

[crystal ferry]

i used for like less than a day

[hybrid ore]

Time to take a chill for a while.

[kind veldt]

here's the fun part, nothing

[exotic panther]

yes

[sour void]

Not me, not yet, anyways.

[hybrid ore]

There's an entire map in DC, what about random NYC's?

[sour void]

Yet to see those amidst the odd AI rogue.

maybe it's a bad thing we're turning their heads into a fine mist with .50 anti armor rounds, but eh

Anyways... yeah... I got my grind sprint cut out for me. Happiness abound.

[shut cipher]

So how is everyone farming season pass levels now ?

[rigid wedge]

So basically not worth it got it

[wild gate]

unless you really paying for mediocre things

[jagged prism]

priority objectives is probably the fastest

people getting insane amounts doin the journey stuff

[rigid wedge]

I already have the original Rowan Outfit

[jagged prism]

but if you check each one you get 250 per journey objective, then when you finish it all you get 2200 so i don't think it's a bug? if you add it all up it's 4200 and probably the usual 3x xp per new season bumps it way up

[ebon steeple]

Think I just found a leaked weapon, in store if u look at the resident evil m4 skin it shows a lvoa called the Lexington that has a AR icon

[weak rock]

winter event maybe?

[valid moat]

the modifiers are cool and all but having 3/4 enemies spawn with shock ammo is just stupid

and warhounds with reversal

[ebon steeple]

Yeah the modifiers don't seem like a successful launch

It makes the game harder if anything

[valid moat]

I get making it harder

but its downright luck of the draw

too many enemies spawn with them

and the wrong ones

[jagged prism]

i find the changes fun honestly

[ebon steeple]

I think the intention was make it more unique but it's just more difficult and none of the modifiers give good buffs

[rigid wedge]

Reversal needs to be removed

[ebon steeple]

The ones that do give debuffs that make using it pointless

[weak rock]

it’s so strong yea

[rigid wedge]

I don't find that one fun at all

[valid moat]

reversal and no shock ammo

[weak rock]

wtf

[jagged prism]

someone mentioned that the right combos makes it OP

[weak rock]

oh the enemy modifier

yea the possible passive/active combos are crazy

[valid moat]

its weird you start with none and the enemies have all of them, and so frequent

[keen osprey]

The buffs to some of those weapons rate of fire has done wonders for higher loops on descent.

[ebon steeple]

If the devs do a reset cuz of the battle pass bug then this seasons prob gonna lose a ton of traction lmao

[jagged prism]

oh definitely

like the "oops you guys weren't supposed to 0-100 season pass in one day" rerolle everyone back to 0 remove the items they obtained through it. people will quit playing

[weak rock]

that’s why i don’t think they will do it

[jagged prism]

at this point they're f'd. if they reroll everyone people will quit. if they reroll and give what they feel one should obtain in 1 day people will feel insulted.
best they can do now is take notes on this and change it in the future with no roll backs

[ebon steeple]

It'll be funny if they fix bp XP before missing apparel

[valid moat]

you can go from 0-100 in a day?

I guess it is crazy im 35 already

[ebon steeple]

U can go from 0-100 from one mission

It's random

[strong wigeon]

If you've already acquired all Battle Pass rewards, then how do you complete; "Claim a Battle Pass reward", in Journey Mission 2?

[keen osprey]

You make a fair point @strong wigeon

[cyan narwhal]

since u only need 6 to complete u can skip it tho

[strong wigeon]

I want to check everything off, not just do 6

[valid moat]

when do you get a passive modifier? ive done enough tasks t ofill the first bar on the progress on the seasonal missions

[ebon steeple]

Til u get a task that rewards a modifier

[jagged prism]

yeah, saw someone post "i got all the modifiers!" i'm like uh how? then i saw the option in the season to do a journey, the priority objectives and something else and went exploring the priority and saw it as a reward and was like ahhhh that's how XD

[valid moat]

ive done like 4 and havent seen one yet

[ebon steeple]

It's rng you'll get one eventually

[valid moat]

cool

[proven cipher]

thanks for fu** straf ubusoft!

ubisoft! thanks!

[kind veldt]

only got one modifier so far

[hybrid ore]

I'd ask what "straf" is, but I like it better that I don't know.

I'm going to imagine they meant "straw", and they're a sentient horse thanking Ubi for some hay.

[proven cipher]

strafe

strafe is fuc*

[kind veldt]

strafe was an odd game

[hybrid ore]

Okay I've got nothing. Strafe? Like, the act of walking sideways?

[proven cipher]

It's not the same as the strafe of the game

[hybrid ore]

Sorry, what are you trying to say? As far as I can tell, Strafe is a Devolver Digital game.

[proven cipher]

bro u play this game ?

serius ?

[jagged prism]

Rivens i think they're talking the strafing shuffle for PvP

[proven cipher]

yes!

thanks

[hybrid ore]

Ooooooh, okay yeah that was very poorly explained.

[proven cipher]

It seems that the character is stuck on the ground

ehen make straffing

when*

[hybrid ore]

You can edit messages you know. Just press "up" on your keyboard, or click the little dots on the side via mobile. Like that.

[jagged prism]

i couldn't say anything as i never understood that mechanic other than seeing people doing it

[hybrid ore]

So as far as I can tell, they're angry some people are using A and D to move around.

[copper quail]

Is there any rifle that is like the Lightweight M4, minus the wonky recoil?

[jagged prism]

i'm guessing this. they shoot at people and they do the agent bullet dodging. they attempt it and they get cemented into the ground and die

[hybrid ore]

Oh so they're still learning.
@proven cipher Don't worry, you'll get there. Just take it slow.

[kind veldt]

visually, carbine 7 is very close in the AR section

[hybrid ore]

@copper quail A bunch of rifles were actually just buffed to be full-auto (as-in, you dont need to click anymore, just hold it down) but also some had a fire-rate buff.
So you have a lot of options now.

[jagged prism]

i'm confsued?

[hybrid ore]

Bird is saying that the carbine-7 Assault Rifle is quite similar to a rifle, in that it has a slower fire-rate.

[jagged prism]

far as i remember Carbine 7 came into the game as an Assault Rifle

[hybrid ore]

It still is.

[jagged prism]

ahhh, i only liked the gun becuase it was a laser when you shoot it XD

[hybrid ore]

Oh it still is a laser, I never took it off my Striker build.
c7 my slow beloved.

[copper quail]

Well, i know that. I'm using the UIC right now because it has the recoil of a water gun, but it's also 240 RPM

[jagged prism]

have you tried the nerf water exotic gun (> <)

oh wait, was that summer gun an exotic too or was it just a named weapon?

[hybrid ore]

the socom/cqb m1a fires faster and is now full-auto, very much worth giving that old meta gun another go.

classic is slower, but still full-auto and hits like a tiny truck.

[kind veldt]

in the list of guns that look like the LWM4

if you want regular full auto gun in the AR category there is always carbine 7

[hybrid ore]

I'll be honest, 99% of guns look identical to me.

"shoot metal at person" doesnt really inspire a lot of creativity for style.

[copper quail]

Yeah, but it's only 10 rounds in a 20 round mag. What is up with that, Massive?

[kind veldt]

i know enough but at teh same time i just see people fighjting over some screwdriver positions in small things

[jagged prism]

nods the drill i was like oh an interesting rifle! come to find out second drop and i see AR

[copper quail]

Well, you say that...

[hybrid ore]

You're supposed to use the mag size buff on every gun, basically.

[jagged prism]

but it does look similar to the Elmo gun too

[sour void]

I'd kill for a double drum on my Carbine 7...

[hybrid ore]

well the elmo is a police m4 with fancy bits taped to it

[kind veldt]

man remember when Carbine only came with that magazine talent nobody uses

[sour void]

I thought it was a turbocharged LWRC?

[copper quail]

Also, why Carbine 7 uses 5.56 mods when it's based on the 7.62 IRL version? The manufacturer also made the same thing in 5.56 but Massive doesn't use that

[hybrid ore]

Effectively all Exotics in div2 are a base gun we already have, plus extra stuff stuck to it.
except for the Nemesis, which is unique.

[copper quail]

*LVOA-C

[copper quail]

Accuracy International, my beloved

[hybrid ore]

It looks more like the police m4, so I'm sticking with that.

[kind veldt]

dont think too much about calibers in video game unless they are making htat a feature

[hybrid ore]

plus the spreadsheet says both, so I can pick.

[sour void]

On the topic of guns, wonder if and when we can borrow the PKM from the dead Hyena tanks.

[kind veldt]

i want that super powered nailgun

[copper quail]

Well, it is a problem when you use a 5.56 mag in a 7.62 gun, it looks goofy

[kind veldt]

i know, that's why i said dont think too much about it

[jagged prism]

i'm having a brain fart of that rifle exotic people thought was ugly becuase it looked like a nerf gun. what's that gun look like with stuff added to it Rivens? i'm curious if i can see it

[hybrid ore]

Look, we have an MMR that is basically a rail-gun, if you start to think too hard about how some of the guns work, you'll go mad.

also the backfire: we can't just take the barb-wire off the handle.

[copper quail]

They added the extra obscure TKB-408 prototype but won't add the SIG MCX or SR-25. Bruh

[jagged prism]

Doctor Home, keep forgetting the name

[hybrid ore]

I think that's a song by Aqua.

[sour void]

Sad that the super-extended mags didn't get a buff. I wouldn't mind having a -50% reload time nerf if it meant I can add another 50 rounds to my Manic.

[azure lintel]

does anyone know if the team said there wont be an apparel event or are people just dooming because it doesnt show in the event schedule?

[kind veldt]

well the nerf version came back as water gun

[hybrid ore]

They confirmed that there will be them this Season.

[kind veldt]

did they?

[azure lintel]

excellent

[copper quail]

Ah yes, squeezing 80 rounds into a 60 round casket mag

[hybrid ore]

previous Stream.

[spare cove]

Cuz they feature too much in other shooter games

[kind veldt]

i do admit i zoned out a bit in the stream so i dont remember too much

[jagged prism]

i know, was that an exotic as well?

[sour void]

When in doubt, use Hyena gunsmithing. It worked for the Chatterbox.

[kind veldt]

it was the original version of doctor home

[copper quail]

True enough for the SR-25. But ain't the MCX a newer thing?

[kind veldt]

it later got a rework in the visuals to look copper instead of white and red nerfgun

MCX is everywhere in shooters, heck even in my resident evil games

[sour void]

I thought that the original Dr. Home was to make it look like an EMT vehicle

[kind veldt]

moderns games are now "ooops it's all SIGs"

[hybrid ore]

You won't see many real named guns in this game, for obvious reasons.

[jagged prism]

i've only seen a snippet of it but didn't really listen to it other than "you shoot another player and they gain a buff" part and was like wtf?

[sour void]

Meanwhile the G11 languishes

[copper quail]

You mean 1 Resident Evil game. And 2 out of 3 in the reboot MW trilogy, and Ready or Not, and that's about it

[burnt agate]

ya'll mean like manufacturers not gun models right?

[copper quail]

There will be no German Space Magic in my funny orange circle shooter game

[sour void]

😦
And here I thought I could interest you in the XM29.

[hybrid ore]

We got a tec-9 in Warframe before we got that gun people wanted in Div2, and that is just hilarious.

[sour void]

Ah yes, the ghetto blaster

[kind veldt]

tarkov, watchdogs, think BF2042 has the new one, that new delta force game, doesnt insurgency also has it?

[copper quail]

Insurgency doesn't have it. It's mods

[kind veldt]

well tec 9 is now a real ghetto blaster with that fire rate

[hybrid ore]

Oh and a deagle, because of course.

[copper quail]

No, not the Deagle. The D50. Because it has to be .50 AE

[kind veldt]

well i got my P-chan so i'm happy

[hybrid ore]

Deagle is slang for Desert Eagle, which is already .50cal, IIRC

[sour void]

Should've had the Raging Judge 28 instead of le tiny boomstick in Div 2

[copper quail]

Oh, here's something uncommon: the Australian EF88

[hybrid ore]

If you're cool, it's the backup boomstick.

[sour void]

Do you one better - the British EM2

[copper quail]

Well, yes and no. Why does it always have to be the .50 variant. Gib .44 Magnum. I can have a bit of practicality in my impractical paperweight, as a treat

[hybrid ore]

Actually they added a revolver too.

[hollow heart]

why is it say servers shutdown immanent ?

[sour void]

.44 Mag is reserved for the S&W M29

[kind veldt]

isnt the survivalist in 44?

[jagged prism]

probably the server you're on is going down

[kind veldt]

i think it might have some different markings

[sour void]

.50 AE. It's a carbon copy of the regular D.E.

[jagged prism]

some people say you'll get booted and you'll just be able to jump back in on a different server in your region

[hollow heart]

its weird coz its saying it for like 30 min by now

[kind veldt]

could swear it had some stupid marking being different

[hybrid ore]

re: server down. It's likely just a visual bug.

[copper quail]

So, anyway, Mark 27 Glock when?

[sour void]

Oh yeah, I just remembered that the HK CAWS doesn't have a lot of game appearances too

[kind veldt]

CAW CAW

we need more bird guns

[hybrid ore]

I choose to believe that is just covered in crow stickers.

[hollow heart]

so how do i lvl up the season? XP lvl's not working

[kind veldt]

Crownade launcher

[sour void]

It's a real gun, trust me

[hybrid ore]

Does it really like shiny things?

[kind veldt]

i know it is, weird as bullpup shotgun by HK

well it's rare like some gems

[jagged prism]

priority objectives

[hollow heart]

that is the only way?

[jagged prism]

it's rng on what you get

[keen osprey]

Everyone is forgetting that the Chatterbox clearly had a place in the first world war.

[jagged prism]

people said you get some in the projects too, but i didn't see it

[hybrid ore]

@keen osprey I know what you're going to say, and just don't.

[kind veldt]

weekly projects, priority objectives, journey, weekly scouts and some others stuff give seasonal XP

[frosty wadi]

Lol

[sour void]

If by shiny things you mean the enemy's helmet, yes. And it demonstrates that by spitting birdshot from a belt link of special 12 gauge shells

[keen osprey]

No you don't

[hybrid ore]

discussing that is just all kinds of rule breaks, and we're having fun here.

[hybrid ore]

@kind veldt you did what?

[kind veldt]

CAW CAW

it's kinda funny how street sweeper became famous in video games because of resident evil but it's pos

[exotic panther]

how do you know which rifles are full auto?

[sour void]

I mean, you only need buckshot for big game - a measly grunt isn't worth wasting double aught on.

[kind veldt]

pretty much all of them except the lever action and merciless

M16 still burst fire

[keen osprey]

Can't say anything these days without serious assumptions apparently

[sour void]

Ditto for PD2.

[kind veldt]

well RE4 made it iconic

funny clock shotgun

[hybrid ore]

@copper quail If we're adding in Australian themed stuff, it'd be great (although it would 100% never happen) for them to add in anything from MetalStorm.

[sour void]

Only thing going for it was the 100 round hammerspace drum

[copper quail]

So why can't we have reloadable Carl Gs? If you say unbalanced, do what Helldivers 2 did: 1 shooter, one to reload and check for backblast, and you can'tove while in that. And on the note of the Carl Gustav recoiless rifle, where does the True Sons even found rocket assisted rounds for their Carl Gs?

[kind veldt]

wait metal storm is australian?

isnt that the bazookas that true sons use and we alos use in the raid?

[hybrid ore]

Uh no.

[sour void]

Because we have the P-016 which is objectively better /s

[keen osprey]

Are those not just drain pipes

[kind veldt]

sorry carl gustavs hong mentioned

[hybrid ore]

MetalStorm was a gun system that....basically fired the entire supply of ammunition of a small nation in one trigger pull.

they're famous for having invented a 36 barrel gun.

[sour void]

1 million rounds per minute, they advertised.

[kind veldt]

i know what metal storm is, it uses eletric ignition to hold multiple shots inside the barrel

[copper quail]

Replacing the minigun emplacement, because i know people will scream if it's portable. Like, imagine a max hotshot-determined-headhunter MMR shot, then divide it be 200 rounds at the same time

[kind veldt]

so multiple shots per barrel x multiple barrels

barrels of fun

[hybrid ore]

Actually they made handheld guns too, there's test footage of them still on YT.

[kind veldt]

i know their GL actually see some use IRL

[wise basalt]

why does everyone charge into legendary thinking they superman, then we wipe. freaking annoying

[sour void]

When they unveiled the first prototype, I thought the barrel array was a pair of 7-segment displays

I mean, they are if you like the number 88

[kind veldt]

not sure about the rest

another "something something payday 2" moment

[exotic panther]

how do you turn off seasonal mods on pc?

[kind veldt]

go to the modifier menu and press Z i think

just look at the bottom of the screen for the button

[sour void]

Should be an option in the modifier itself.

[copper quail]

Yep

[keen osprey]

I would suggest you don't play R6 Siege, we have gotten to a point in gaming where people with severe ADHD can't sit still for two seconds. The same people spam the "call for help button"

[exotic panther]

i dont see a modifier menu. i'm guessing that's not until 40?

[hybrid ore]

Okay so reading up on them and it's..... just go to their wiki page.

[keen osprey]

30

[copper quail]

Would be on brand for the detachment in Iron Horse

[sour void]

Oh yeah, I almost forgot about the MAUL shotgun that was supposed to be the replacement for the 870 Masterkey

[wise basalt]

@keen osprey running zoo leg, at last stage b4 boss. everyone charges, downed in 2 minutes leaving me to hotswap to skills, smh

[exotic panther]

where is the modifier menu located?

[hybrid ore]

inventory > middle top

[sour void]

Your equipment screen. Mid top

[jagged prism]

and them yelling at you to hurry up?

[keen osprey]

A few weeks ago I had to do a "houdini" where you leave the group and equip a hive to come back, 8 different times. At the end up I had to go and drink a very large whiskey 😂 did you finish it?

[exotic panther]

not there. i'm 38

[sour void]

Adderall kids is why I usually run solo outside of an Incursion or Raid

[sour void]

Then you need to reach 40, I suppose. Never had this problem.

[exotic panther]

apparel/inventory/contaminted/resources/stats/tutorials all i see when i press I

[wise basalt]

@keen osprey no, got killed by bomb drone, wasted like 1hr 30min trying to get ppl together and running it

[keen osprey]

You should see the specialisation weapon plus the Isaac brick. No?

[exotic panther]

yeah. is that isaac thing the modifiers?

[kind veldt]

yes

[sour void]

Yeah, and this is why I don't do Legendary at all and resign myself to watching others complete it.

[keen osprey]

Legendary district union is definitely the easiest of them all

[kind veldt]

i did my penitence to farm big horn in the early days not doing aymore

[sour void]

Got my Big Horn from a generous donor.

From there I forgot about Legendary Missions

[unreal geode]

Anyone success reedem the code of mask?

[keen osprey]

😅 I remember getting it on the very first run of capitol when it was released. Since then not a single drop. Even with floor 10 farm on legendary - bubkis

[keen osprey]

Are you having issues?

[sour void]

I feel your pain - just replace Big Horn with Ravenous pre DZ integration

[unreal geode]

3 of them are used.

[keen osprey]

Ah you're referring to the twitter post.

The 3 codes were single use.

[sour void]

I'd also jump at an exotic GR9 with 300 rounds and a fire rate ramp up mechanic

[kind veldt]

well i did get my EB from the first week of incursion giving bugged drops

[keen osprey]

You can still purchase it in the store if you don't think you'll be lucky enough to get one frm the streamers. As far as I'm aware they were all given 3.

[kind veldt]

ravenous no such luck

[sour void]

Got EB on my 4th Dark Hours run - its not that hard, all things considered

But Ravenous is pure unobtainium

[keen osprey]

Me too first run with friends and I pulled both the oreo and eb, already had it so no one in group needed it either. Kind of felt a bit annoyed deconstructing it knowing how many people would like to have one.

[sour void]

On the topic of Ouroboros - if they're gonna nerf the fire rate, I hope (with sheer futility) that they rework the talent to give you debuff rounds and a +50% to fire rate after reloading from a debuff

[jagged prism]

i can't remember my EB drop. just remember doing it with friends or clan and dropping it for someone else that needed/wanted it. then run it a few more times and someone dropped me theirs

[kind veldt]

they already nerfed the rof

[sour void]

Which is a testament to how common it is compared to Ravenous

[kind veldt]

it was only by 100, 1250 is still stupidly huge

[jagged prism]

but it sat in my stash anyways XD

[sour void]

But I want more brrrt 😦
Chatterbox is too finicky

[unborn vigil]

Isnt a normal vector 1200?

[jagged prism]

don't think ravenous took me any longer either, just hated doing the pistol project, that seemed to take forever

gives me the nemesis PTSD

[sour void]

That was actual pain

[kind veldt]

well ouro still has custom mod for extra rof

[sour void]

1466 RPM versus the potential 1912 on Chatterbox will not stand

[keen osprey]

The talent of the gun is doo doo in most cases. I've never found a use for it. On paper the gun is best in slot for it's stats alone.

[sour void]

Hence my rework proposition

Also, the gun looks so damn clean - it's a shame it caught a nerf

[dark sand]

I still haven't gotten a single descent comm .. that descent jesus .. I went and just watch descent comms from someone who did it .. I will say that takes effort

[jagged prism]

no clue on those as i loath the game mode. sure it's easy but it's not fun for me so i rarely do it in general

[sterile cedar]

Join GC Rock’s Discord if you want that. Some kind person dropped that for me on my first IH run

[dark sand]

The only reason I went to go back to descent as there was vindicator there so I picked it up there

[dark sand]

thats guys channel a man of culture right there

[jagged prism]

nods the only reason i grinded it myself was to get that gun

[sour void]

Already got the collector's piece long ago.

Along with Regulus

[jagged prism]

to me descent and summit are the same game mode

[dark sand]

Y'know actually Dm his discord or place am down hopefully will find someone to help me out

[sterile cedar]

I came back to this came during the spring and wanted to go for the exotics I was missing. I got the Ouro, Ravenous, and Regulus in maybe 3 weeks total

[dark sand]

I also got a message from ubisoft technical they .. fixed the puppeteers comms and I can go ahead and grind the comms that am missing hopefully will pop up gotta wait in game time at 21:00 or 22:00 but just in case will wait

[dark sand]

😨

[sterile cedar]

Sent you the link

[copper quail]

So what's the True Son's plan when taking over infrastructure? Waltz in, kill half the people who knows how to run the place then Wallace and Gromit their way through a steel forge complex and nuclear power plant?

[dark sand]

Thanks I owe you Agent shadow or Agent Flux or just agent of the division for the dm link

[sterile cedar]

You’re welcome 😎

[sour void]

I haven't figured out what name I should give my agent...

Agent Clarke? Agent Archwell?

[dreamy needle]

The new AR is fun

[sour void]

How many rounds does the Strega hold at base?

[dreamy needle]

40

[sour void]

Oh.

I guess it'll be fine with my Hunter's Fury

[kind veldt]

i'm using those eagle gloves with it

15% extra magazine and handling is alwats good

[jagged prism]

agent butterfingers?

[sour void]

I'm not that clumsy.

[jagged prism]

btw: whatever your Ubisoft account name is, will be your agent's name unless you talking fan fiction?

[midnight lotus]

Perry

[broken thunder]

Does the call for backup even work?

[jagged prism]

should

[sour void]

The latter.

[broken thunder]

was waiting 5min+ for somebody ;-;

[sour void]

Call for Backup is temperamental to say the least

[jagged prism]

i usually ignore those when i see it or i have it completely off

[astral jacinth]

I think backup calls are bugged

I havent received any calls for backup at all for the past few months

[south oriole]

Umm hey i kinda new here so i need some help regarding the division 2 as you know that the division 2 is free this weekend from 31 oct to 4 nov so i wanted to know that if I downloaded the game during that period will i be able to play the campaign whenever I want or do i have to buy it again after the weekend

[north jackal]

Can anyone help me with hunters idk if im doin it wrong or wat ive tried for days

[jagged prism]

believe you download and play during that time then afterwards it gets shut off but your account will still be there. you buy the game you'll continue where you left off that weekend

[dark sand]

I was just informed of ubisoft technical services and they responded on puppeteers comm 26 of how I went to an area at 21:00 not popping up and they said they fixed it .. and when I went there its still the same not fixed .. even waited at 22:00 and 23:00 I am not sure what to do

[south oriole]

Oh 🥲 i thought it is getting free like breakpoint when it got free in 2021

But i was not able to get during that time

[dark sand]

I went ahead and showed images of it again hopefully they respond and get it fixed .. I want those comms man .. cause one of these days once the game ends or I am playing another game in the future I will go back and say gawd dam this story was peak or I actually did this

for descent comms oh gawd .. I still haven't gotten a single one ..

For Descent I think a change that could be made to make me wanna play it more is if the rewards were better from blueprints or exotics guns or gear would be nice .. or hell maybe allow us to get a descent comm in arena at least 1 comm would be good enough .. and for nemesis 2 comms at least or actually 3 take it or leave it

[shy musk]

i love these priority missions

do one activity for a free exotic

[astral jacinth]

Priority missions are infinite right?

[dark sand]

yessir .. really nice there although not really nice on the season pass tho we get like

[dark sand]

you also get 3 chance .. and if you don't wanna do the specific 1 you can reset and .. to earn a chance is to complete the priority

if you ran out of 3 chance you gotta wait 1 hour

[jagged prism]

is it one priority or a couple?

[shy musk]

3 choices for priority missions, you can only pick 1 to do at a time

[jagged prism]

yeah i understand that part....

i'm asking about completing a priority to reroll chance part

[shy musk]

a couple

[astral jacinth]

What happens when you finish up all the Priorities?

[dark sand]

a couple indeed

[jagged prism]

how would you do that?

[dark sand]

You gotta wait 1 hour .. it give you like 1 priority

[astral jacinth]

Are they on an infinite rotation? Once you compete the previous one, another 3 will always be available?

[jagged prism]

so if you do them too fast you end up at a point where you have to wait? interesting

[dark sand]

I believe so its on infinite rotations ... I have done 8 so far .. haven't went higher than that yet

[astral jacinth]

Time gating to prevent too much farming too fast I guess

[jagged prism]

hmm, so the guy that showed they got all the passive modifiers was extremely lucky?

[astral jacinth]

Prob chose the ones that only had them as a reward

[jagged prism]

yeah, and luckily getting them for each reward possibly? i've only seen 2 so far

[astral jacinth]

Probably

You get mods from Journey too I think

[dark sand]

aw dang one of the journey shows I gotta do descent loop 3 times .. ooof well may as well do it and get it out of the way

[astral jacinth]

It seems you only have to do 6 out of the 8? To get the tier reward

[dark sand]

thank god .. it doesnt tell me to vs nemesis .. phew

[jagged prism]

descent is soo boring 😢

[astral jacinth]

I skipped that one and rather kill 300 true sons

[dark sand]

I get you .. but those season pass xp is so much needed man

[astral jacinth]

Really? I’m already at Lvl 70 lul

[dark sand]

oh shoot is it that bug .. or oh nevermind ...

[jagged prism]

i'm 52 and stopped for the day. can't decide if i'm sleepy enough to sleep honestly lol

[dark sand]

I forgot you can pay for tiers .. I am so stupid

[jagged prism]

would you pay for tiers though?

[dark sand]

nah im good homie .. I could use that money to save up for another game

but if you guys pay I .. got no problem there .. no hate or anything

[jagged prism]

i might've done it in the past when i was like, there's nothing else i want to spend it on so might as well use it up on tiers XD

or try to save it for 3ish months to buy season passes

[dark sand]

I get you .. I won't lie .. I have had regrets spending money on cosmetics .. how much I spent made me wish I shouldv'e saved it for something recent like right now

I have not bought a single season pass in division 2 only grinded free version

[jagged prism]

like i think i did their 99.99 for x amount of premium credits to get that one mask they give away with it then i'm like what do with the rest?

[dark sand]

I will only pay if its like a expansion or a dlc but it all depends on how much content is in it .. but at the same time yeah

[jagged prism]

nods right now i'm just like do they deserve my money? 🤔

[dark sand]

waitin on that brooklyn dlc .. hope its a big or decent enough map with a good story

gotta keep my money tight on these hard times

🤫

[inland parcel]

😏 me .. who play div1 but looking forward to see discount again on div2

[dark sand]

😏

[hollow heart]

I don't suppose the Friend Referral is ongoing right now?

I know the patch notes says tomorrow on 31st but this is Ubisoft kekw

Why wouldn't they start the Referral program at the start of a new season anyway

[jagged prism]

maybe they want people to experience the season solo

[dark sand]

[jagged prism]

is there an experience gain when you run with a referred friend? maybe they don't want people to abuse using that with the 3x experience

[dark sand]

😅

[jagged prism]

they don't show anything aside "revamped"

[hollow heart]

Something about new cosmetic is all I know about

[jagged prism]

in the past "You will also automatically benefit from a 20% XP boost anytime you play with a Recruit in co-op until you reach Level 30."

maybe revamp will be that but level 40 or who know x amoutn past 40 for shd watch levels
new cosmetics sounds about right though

[gilded venture]

Nice.... Two hours was enough to maxed out the season pass...

[broken thunder]

the exp gain is bugged

[fickle edge]

i wonder if the multiplier is applied to season pass xp too lol

[keen osprey]

Why hve I just went from 21 to 74 season pass after completing roos island wtf

[fickle edge]

its bugged lol
