That shit drives me bonkers. It causes me to miss sniper shots, sticky bombs and fucks up healing. I also had to zone in and out of the dark zone yesterday because none of my abilities would work. Not even health regen. My character was broken. I had a teammate heal me and after zoning out of the DZ and back in everything worked fine again.

I would rather them actually put some thought into making those fixes than coming up with something quick. Seems like every quick fix causes more problems.

Has this always been considered out of bounds?

Unrelated, this NPC must be a glitcher... jumping jacks after all are the new mobile cover.

After weeks of honorable play in the DZ I matched with two randoms yesterday for some boss hunting until a 4th joined that was hellbent on straight up killing every agent on the server. Dude was level 99, about 208GS and proceeded to get us all on man hunts and then just stand in the middle of the street outside the safe house daring anyone to come for him. Sometimes we'd help but really it was just this one guy killing groups of 2-3 all by himself while we ran around reeping XP and money. Eventually we had to retreat to the Library roof for a while as we had about 7 agents hunting us but they never did flush us out.
One poor guy was genuinely upset because he had been ganked about 6 times even after the three of us had told him it was ok we weren't going to kill him just to have our 4th come around the corner and instantly destroy him. I felt pretty dirty afterwards but man, dat XP and money. If anyone on Gaf was caught up in that, I apologize.
Eventually our murdering 4th quit the party and we ran the f out of there before he decided to kill all of us (which I'm certain was on his agenda). Despite finally hitting 75 and having about a 199GS I've never felt so underpowered in this game as I did watching this one guy rampaging through everyone by himself.

that makes DZ so fun
Lol amazing.So last night we headed down from DZ06 to DZ02....
I counted 21 agents..
We went rogue and ran for the hills lol.
I might jump in for some dz stuff in the future.
State of game notes are disappointing but it's a start. I thought talent stacking was fixed?

My level 32 Stamina blueprint is gone from the crafting station. :|
Edit: WTF its put it back up for sale again even though I bought it last week. I gotta get 100,000 DZ funds before reset to buy again..
Talent fixing is fixed but I think there is some new way on certain talents to stack them again.

I was in a similar situation. My GS is only like 175 but I did matchmaking and got hooked up with 3 agents who were all 208GS minimum. I just hung out for the ride and the loot. They were killing bosses in seconds, not even thinking about cover. It was amazing. We were running to a supply crate and another group went rogue against us, that entire group was dead in about 5 seconds. It was insane. It was fun, but it really showed how terrible balancing can ruin the DZ. If they were guys that just wanted to kill the entire server, they could with zero resistance.

And those are the people that laughs when other complains and say how the current state of the game is "just fine" and how the crafting is "just fine". As long as it's not affecting them.

Logged into DZ this morning, found 2 straight DTech crates, killed a boss and got a cool attachment, opened the lol chest and got another attachment and good pistol. Thought, "hey, it might be a good quick DZ run!". Upon engaging the next mob, Division services become unavailable
I load back in and my first 4 drops are all goddamn performance mods lol

How do you report a cheater when they skate by you so fast that their names don't even appear. Nothing cooler than having someone just skate thru and one shot all npc and claim all Drops. All I wanted to do is get that stupid 50 riker kills and get the fuck out of this mess.
Edit: Damn shadowplay.... didn't save the replay. Does it not record in windowed mode?

They use place holder objects for mission triggers. There's one by the big Carrier that is in the out of bounds area of the game as well that I posted a while ago.Anyone have an idea what this could be? Found it while exploring, I had to activate it to get the message.

Yeah, pretty much. That or matchmake and hope the others can carry you.

Are you doing the side missions in each area as well? If you do those, you should be at or over the suggested levels to do the next main mission. If not you can matchmake but I would think you would end up sub level 30 at the end of the game if you do it that way.
You're not going to gain enough experience just doing the main missions.

Basically yes. You'll need to unlock the stuff from the Base of Operations either way.
You can speed up the side mission part to upgrade your BoO by having friends join and running around the map completing the side missions that reward you with points to upgrade. You don't need to be near them to get credit for the mission being completed.

I bought it and really like it. There is like a 24% chance or some shit to instantly reload and it happens pretty often. It really reminds me of a gun from Destiny because that's such a unique perk. I haven't found another that does that, anyways.
hmm didnt know you still got rewarded when not in proximity of the side mission, thought it was like the DZ. good to know, ill try that
the meticulous talent works but i rather swap it with something else and the fact that you need to be in full health for the crit chance is meh...nothing beats the 62 bullets of a nicely rolled mp5 (next 204 bp should be for the navy mp5)

Yeah I'm down. Added you
Next time I'm on I don't mind trying this out for you. I seem to be stuck in a rut at the moment and just don't know what to do so clearing someone else's map is cool with me if it helps you out.
Looking forward to the BoO vendor refresh to see what he brings this week to spend my credits on.
DZ03 vendor has a 204 ACR blueprint for sale if you're into ARs.

That's your problem, and most people for that matter (myself included), DZ is supposed to be PvP. Your 4th has the right idea. If you see another player you should be looking to kill them. Although I don't necessarily like the way it's done. I think it would have been better to have everyone chose a side as they enter DZ, the current way just has everyone thinking it's wrong to go rogue. They could have even done it where each zone in DZ has a different set of rules/gametype, with DZ 5/6 having the current style.
I'd actually argue against that.
It's both PvE and PvP, and should be seen as such. If it were seen as just PvP, this game would lose something that's unique to it.
The former is the mentality that tanked DayZ's community. It started out PvE, with players helping each other to survive. Then became this cool mix of players playing friendly and some playing as bandits. Not quite killing each other, but robbing each other for goods. Nowadays everyone plays it as PvP with zombies in the way, (when zombies are even there).
I really hope the Dark Zone doesn't just become PvP, as there is nothing more tense than playing with a random person you just met, hoping he doesn't get bored and go from teammate to enemy in an instant.
The tense stare downs you get as you cross paths in the DZ when you size up each other before opening fire or going your own ways is something that I really hope doesn't fade away.
If only!
What's the required level mate? I'm guessing 75 ;-(
Recently hit 56 but doubt I'll get anywhere near 75 before the refresh.
nice I'm on now waiting for the reset
