How would you guys feel about having futuristic combat armour in the game? Not like crazy sci fi but grounded and fitting in with the Tom Clancy vibe. Like a mixture between what the Last Man Battalion are wearing with a tiny bit of Mass Effect.

No thanks, I'd rather have it be as close to the real world as possible, since it is pretty much set in the present day.

I get what you're saying but with the skills we have available in the game it just feels like the timeline is a bit more in the future. Well, was just a thought.

I'm pretty happy with those updates. Community engagement looks to be really strong and could halp make this game a huuuge success. Keep it up Massive/Ubi!
 
OP does not include anything about the open beta. Will stats be wiped? Will they open up more dark zone areas or is the new mission the only new content?

I guess wipe + everything will be the same except the new mission.

Don't see why they should reveal much more new stuff 2 weeks prior to launch :)

IDK, something with zombies as an extra endgame mode or a mod you can turn on would be kinda awesome.

Can't we have a game without zombies in it? just saying.

Its bad enough that studios can't make a proper zombie survival game.

Next people will want Cthulhu monsters...

There is more non-Zombie games than Zombie games.

And if they are well done I don't have any problem with them (TLOU for example)

Well for me they can keep that out of my way. It would turn me off because i didn't buy into this game, with the notion that there might be zombies in it. Since i rather not face more generic hordes, that instead of flank and use tactical methods. They just chase after you and moan or they just use the L4D archetype. Its screams uncreative because they should easily dead.

Now a different type of game with about the same setting, with more surival aspects and zombies? yes... but this game? no

Is there an MGSV style battle dress if you want to play full on tank style?

I want Quiet

@ Zombies: Like I said, I would not mind an optional endgame zombie mode or some mods for it. Certainly I don't wish to see any braindead zombies in the story of the game.

0% Mass Effect, but I do expect to find some high tech gear eventually, probably as a reward from a future DLC raid. Thus far The Division is using pretty low tech outfits compared to the tech skills they are deploying.
 
Really cool. And quit realistic also wich i like. It isnt far fetched really.

"The Last Man Battalion is a private military company hired by Wall Street companies to protect assets during the outbreak. They consist primarily of veteran soldiers with extensive combat experience overseas."
I'm going to make my Division Agent look like Bernie Sanders and fuck those Wall Street lackeys up. I'm coming for you Wall Street! First you bought and sold elections and now you're hoarding assets. It's personal and I have the backing of the youth of NYC.

but I am a sheep
i really hope this update for the open beta is a good example of the support the game will receive after release.

Also hoping to see very different AI behaviors between enemy factions, hopefully not just different weapons at their disposal.

Let's face it, gear won't look great in this game unless you really have a thing for present day attire.

The guns won't be crazy either.

I just want backpacks that have two straps. I have a deep hatred for single-strap backpack/assault packs. They just don't make any damn sense aside from trying to look different.

I don't really get that heated about this. But they are dumnb

I have to agree with you .In the closed beta I was not using any jackets because of this single strap which was bugging me quite a lot.I realised the tactical hoodie kinda works best with it and it was the only "jacket" I was using.

I don't want my soldier to look like this from behind ,Ubi!

I hope some, at least military style, gear has logos and such of some bad ass special units and such to add those details and to increase "badassery rating" of gear we wear later on. I also hope there is vanity gear that is made in themes of hostile factions, TLB snipers have some badass hoods and I want one.
