Official Thread The Division v. 2

I got into the private beta...once I figure it out,I think you need to login once and it starts at 2 A.M. for me,but I will log tomorrow morning,I will have a key/code if anyone wants one(on Xbox).
 
Preordered the game and installing the beta now. I have a feeling I’m really going to like this plus a bunch of people on my friends list plan on getting the game.

Demo is awesome so far. Just left the base to go to the first settlement. Controls seem improved IMO. There is a satisfaction felt with each kill especially with my new 7.1 surround headphones on. The HDR is very nice and the weather change to rain was subtle yet gave you the feeling of realism. I do like the new menus, they are easier for me. Maybe because I spent more time learning them this time.

Graphics are purdy that is for sure. Now it sucks that I have to go to work :(
 
Played a few hours.

Basically, it is a more refined Division. I like it.

Beta has some some bugs, like gun shots are silent, no reload sound, stuff like that. Texture pop in can be pretty bad at times (OG X1).

Most annoying thing is the constant barrage of "Agent requesting backup" voice that you seemingly can't turn off. This needs to change.

It seems they changed the squishy sound of headshots from the first game which is not a big deal but wasn't something that needed change. It was really distinctive and made for a nice audio-que. I'm really liking the wide open spaces I've seen in videos. It looks like Massive did a great job and made a real sequel instead of Division 1.5 like some comments I've seen on Youtube.
 
UBISOFT went full SJW in the Division 2, at the character creation screen there is no gender selection option, instead they have renamed it to "body type" with no mention of gender anywhere. It took me a full 5 minutes to figure out how to change my character from female to male.
 
I guess I am doing the roof top Boss area too early at level 2...? getting destroyed,tried about 5 times now...doesnt seem as solo friendly as the first,I will be on most of the day tomorrow,if anyone sees me online,even if I am playing Odyssey,shoot me an invite.

Loving it so far but man that fight is hard af.
 
Just got kicked out for the fourth and fifth time both during a mission. I’m done for the night. What I played was decent.

Same issue.

I’m in though. Probably will wait a few months to jump in though to see how quickly content is released.

I play the f*** out of the base game of these loot shooters and get burnt out and never come back haha.

Is that the one with the A.I helper? If so, shoot gun belt and shojld cause his weapon to jam forcing reload which gives you a nice window to lay down some pain. I assume you are killing the adds first.
 
This is the old man in me talking. I find the text/font really difficult to read sometimes on the screen. I wound up bumping the size and changing the contrast. It's nice to have some of those options, but it makes me feel old.
