It's been known about for weeks since the details of the season past were listed on retailer's sites.

The Division Open Beta Thread: Is it out yet?

Copyright I think...just like that thing in watchdogs.
You have to apply for a license to use the image and name of the Empire State building and they definitely don't let you use it for free in a commercial enterprise.
It's possible that Ubisoft thought it wasn't worth the effort. That or the application was denied due to the nature of the game.

Copyright is a thing.
Plus major cities are a bitch to deal with when it comes to licensing agreements plus the fee's. Its not one stop shop.
Something with the NYPD material that they had to change.
Vector was quite a bit fun, not fastest SMG in the city yet hit like truck with those multiple and regular crits.
Edit: Joined "Gold Race" right off the bat right after closed beta ended.
Didn't get to try the vector
I liked the smg9
But this time I used the mp7
It was pretty good short clip though 20rounds , bumped it up with extendo mag
High crit percentage was dropping guys real quick, 1k rpm at the end with attachments

Whys the season pass more expensive on ps4 on GAME website? Might just go gold from amazon.
Arekkz vid on a possible tank build. I felt like the shield had some kind of innate agro element to it. Seems like that may be the case.
Yeah I just coughed up the coin for digital gold version on the ubi-store, fuck it I know I'll play it for ages and get the value out of it easily, GMG didn't like me canceling my preorder though.
Tried to give in-store credit or something like that? For me Division Gold was no brainer after I got hands on with closed beta, will easily get moneys worth and more out of this game.
Edit:
At least crafts that you need Division Tech for apparently are godtier stuff, afaik.
This is a good question. I haven't really seen any crafting info although it seems like a big part of the game.
There are certainly a lot of collectible crafting recipes and ingredients. If it's well designed then crafting should be invaluable in some way...
Just remember that if you go shared library you and your friend could NOT play together

Is the UAV perk that flies into someone's face and flashes them still in game?

I know this is not a true mmo, but in other games crafting is a way to make items for yourself and or others to sell or give. With no trade option it seems like crafting is for your own self. It would be cool to find a rare blueprint and offer to make it for others in exchange for money or materials.
Uh. if that list up there is correct, then you have 12 story missions and 30 wing missions.
That is definitely not true. No way. The wing upgrades don't all have missions associated with them. No way do they have 42 "proper" big missions in the game.
Why not? The game's been in dev for awhile. Are you saying all that time and they couldn't even make 40 whole missions? Don't forget that doctor one was kind of short its not like any of these are guaranteed to be over even 10 minutes in length (which is already kind of a huge bummer)
Well we don't know what there will be in end game, very plausible rumor about raid surfaced few weeks ago. Devs said they will be talking about end game content and plans before release. Also apparently game will feature challenge modes for missions for level 30's etc.
To me it starts to look like that game will have a lot more meat on its bones than Destiny had even after 1st DLC.
And why not?
Destiny 2.0 aka TKK is actually pretty good and entertained me for 3 months.
Totally worth it.
You say that like it is a bad thing.
Nah, this isn't true. We have like 30+ games and we play together all the time.
It's the "home Xbox" swap
You mean i'm going to be playing the division for over 1400 hours and have tons of fun? Good.

Fair point,I hope there are more main missions and less sidequest, I dont mind the events popping out in your way.
If the late game and post game content will get real support and not being in a paid DLC wall then it would be better than Destiny for me.
Oh xbox, was thinking steam when you said shared library. Yeah I have no clue with xbox lol
No, I definitely lost that much in one go. I was at 48k before the death and dropped down to 32k.
Yep.
If I get another 600+ hours out of the division like I have Destiny (so far) then that is easily worth the cost, if I broke down the math on cost savings of playing destiny vs other activities I do then it would be quite funny.
And if it saves me buying another game for the next 2-3 months then great, my partner will be thrilled. Plus if it can tide me over between those destiny content drops then "yay", hell if bungie and massive can coordinate content drops that would be better.
Thanks! That's about what I imagined. I wonder how the distribution of high end gear will work. Hopefully drops won't make all crafting obsolete.

We will know how many missions and such there is to do in two weeks time. Don't pass judgement.
No speculation needed.

or just put turn off weapon use in the entrance area.
Kind of bummed to see the crafting table didnt appear to have a section for appearance related stuff tho
It actually has. You become visible and vulnerable only moment you gain control of your character. You go invisible and invulnerable moment you start to interact with the door, as you enter CP.

I believe the best gear from pve won't drop as actual gears. They'll drop in crafting parts instead as 'high end crafting materials'. So you'll have to collect them to craft the high end gears. That'll do for endgame pve activities. Or perhaps if the raids rumours are true, you can get the gears from there but they'll be pretty hard (or even impossible) for fresh level 30 players. So they'll need to get the crafted gears first to be able to tackle the raid. So raid gears are the highest tier. Yeah, I hope there'll be tiers for level 30 gears so there'll be longevity for endgame activities.
I still get blown up the moment I move lol.

That's basically how I think about it too. And I expect The Division to last me a lot longer than that.
And to me i think i will enjoy it more than destiny since destiny never caught my full attention i have everything from that game but in the end i did not really like it. But i like the whole NYC setting and more human level instead of space opera stuff or fantasy at this point it feels fresh.
I imagine CP camping being lesser issue in full release because how many entrances into DZ there will be. Safe houses may be tricky tho, saw some firing squads camping safe house doors
Either they don't 100% know which direction the game will take, so they don't want to talk specifics...or they don't have concrete plans for the game to actually end. End Game stuff basically shows players when they stop playing a game.

That's an excellent deal but it seems they do not sell digital versions of the Gold Edition for PS4. What a bummer.
Considering upping my Amazon pre-order from the normal to the Gold Edition for the extras, the price difference is £18, but the season pass is seemingly £32 on its own which makes the Gold Edition for a prospective long term player well worth it.
Wish we had that Prime offer in the UK.
Ah, my friends and I must have completely missed that option, thats pretty sweet then, that was one of the main issues I was worried about.

Sounds like a lot of RNG. Everything can be level 4-30? Unless once you hit level 30 everything drops at level 30.
Now you can hopefully get a high end weapon drop or you can craft it. Being able to craft the item is based on RNG to get the blueprint, but the blueprint can have levels to it.
I really hope that once you hit 30 you only get 30 level drop or at least 28-30 or something like that.
Imagine getting a high end weapon that is level 8.
More specifically raids. The reason I've played Destiny for 1500+ hours.
