Play time:
Yeah i think i will buy this game lol.
What's everyone's playtime? you can check in the main menu.
I think I hit 12 hours. It would have been more, but I have so many games I want to get through that I stopped. Though, I'll probably play in the DZ for a couple more hours tonight.

Played 20 hours.
Dark zone with three friends is insane, most fun I've had in multi-player in the last couple of years at least.
Playing the pve mission on hard was dope too.
Really hope ubi will not screw this up, I guess they have a winner in their hands.
Great great great coop experience. Excellent.

Anyone playing this and recommending others not buy it?
I am waiting for reviews to see if there is enough content to be worth full price even though I put in over 12 hours into the Beta and loved it. Also on PC I am afraid of Dark Zone cheating being rampant if they don't shore up the client side holes.

I played the Beta about 10 hours...enjoyed it
Any checkpoint vendor sells it. You may have to join other worlds to keep refreshing your store stock in order to find a store that does sell it.

Put in another 3 hours or so tonight. Think I'm sold on it
Atmosphere in the DZ was very different tonight. Far fewer manhunts and rogues.
My team of 3 decided to be good citizens too. Spent a lot of the evening guarding other teams as they extracted gear. Resulted in many jumping jack parties.
It was cool watching groups approach us. Warily, as we were camped by the EZ with no gear. They clearly though we were hunters. Slowly though my team took up perimeter positions and turned our backs to the guys in the H with packs on.
They eventually call it in and get their stuff out.
A good change of pace.

I'm pretty sure you can't. You could always start another character though.

I dont understand what gear people are extracting. None of the chests have opened for me for days, and the mobs drop shit...
Best gear is from the vendors which doesnt have to be extracted

Not sure if it's been posted yet, but here's a pretty cool timelapse video of some locations from the beta

some drop Blue items...sometimes
I played some DZ today and unless it was a Blue item I didn't even pick it up (no Blues dropped then)
Yeah, you can't miss with double barreled shotguns and if you do, you can be screwed really easy. I don't think I came across that one even though I checked most places, and it sounds really good too. o.o
So close to full damage beyond a bit more past 10meters? Nice. Doubt that it will be nerfed. Seems most people went for the Caduceus first. Also, I used an SMG+Shotgun combo unless I needed to snipe. So any enemy that came to melee me or was around the corner got a buckshot in the face.

So last night we caught some people trying to gank us by sending in a player to pretend as friendly while his buddy sniped. The problem his buddy didn't check his surroundings.
You really dont see this type of stuff in many other games lol

I think if you group up in the sp area all the side missions reset.
I think it depends on if the players in the group have any open encounters or side missions. I didn't have any on my map, but was able to help teammates out.

It's getting harder to find any people to group with. Waited 2 hours in MM and everyone exits.
Kane and I spent around an hour in the Dark Zone looking for "the Cleaners" AI bosses he wanted to see. We got nothing out of the 06-07 range but green items. Not even a blue or purple.
:/ We did run into a few rogues but with us two and "Markfu7" we met-up with randomly off Uplay, we were able to hold out with the rest of the instance rarely going rogue. That was pretty refreshing.

Overall, the game felt very underwhelming to me. I think it has the potential to be really good, but the beta did not leave a positive impression on me outside of the visual presentation of the game and being competent in its combat aspect.
wasnt there was a thread about how witcher 3 lacked content?
who gives a fuck what gaf thinks

The dark zone stuff sounds fun. So far I've been playing alone and it doesn't seem like you'll get much out of this game that way.

Well I don't want to be too much of a Mr. Grumpypants so I'll keep it short. Barring some significant changes, I wouldn't recommend it.
This game, this f***ing gameso intense and so much fun! I've been playing dark zone solo and been doing fine, no chance of survival tho when a group of 3 or 4 people decide to straight out slaughter me. Haven't played a game that kept me on the edge of my seat like this in a while.
Hunting rogues and looting chests got me a ton of DZ funds so I got my gear pretty fast. I just hope it's not that easy/fast in the final version
wow an 83% armor!!! I could do some serious damage with that thingy! Truth be told I'm already causing havok in the dark zone! I've taken out 5 enemies solo. They're rated 6 - 8 level. I'm level 12 in dark zone, and level 7 in the normal region.
Such a love hate relationship with the Dark Zone. People suck. Extracting alone is too hard because you just get surrounded by people who haven't gone rogue yet but are just waiting to jump you and grab your loot - obviously can't make the first move because then you're marked as rogue.

People sure get caught up in the extraction minigame when you can't even get the top two tiers of gear from it.
Not going to lie. Being hunted across every friggin extraction with a canister full of loot is pretty fun. At one point I had a group of 4 coming straight at me after I fired off my flare. I ran back down the subway and waited. Sure enough they came right at me. I took off running, but four people shooting down a straight line will be able to kill me eventually. To slow them down I popped off a grenade that would be pre-cooked to explode as soon as they rounded the corner. This bought me enough time to get to the rooftop extraction were another group turned rogue as they were tackling rogue snipers from across the way. I ran all the way back to the gas station LZ where I started in the first place. Popped another flare in the back corner then ran for the containers. Only AI attacked me and I dealt with them pretty easily.
Good times. Game leaves a good impression.

guess I've been lucky so far in the DZ...I think I've only been killed by another player once and haven't had anyone kill me at the extraction point
If you like destiny you will most likely like the division. If you don't like destiny or thought it had too little content whelp.....

I have decided once the full game is released that I'll make it my duty to become a vigilante enforcer of justice in the dark zone and hunt down every rogue agent I see.
Yeah it's practically all you can do starting out - especially with how unbalanced the Dark Zone is in this beta. Hopefully not so much of an issue with the full release because I do enjoy it.

Has an open beta been confirmed or is it just assumed ?

Interesting, I wonder if it will just be the exact same content from the closed beta ?
And I will make sure that I will destroy your heroic idealism and bring injustice to our new Democracy!
Wow people really putting in a whole games worth of play into this beta? crazy!
I played for 7 hrs did all the side missions which were actually pretty good and ran some Dark zone decided to stop playing before I wore myself out on too little content.
I Am envious of some of the gear that I see y'all with...... too bad im on call for the next 12 hours
