Cheers for the latest trailer Super-Spec .

[Saintsy]

Really looking forward to this.
If the AI level is anything that of GRFS, it will be awesome as a single/offline game (which is all im hoping for aha).
The customization level of GRFS seems to be there (Slightly in the clip) so hopefully the full variety is there.
A variety of agents so hopefully you can swap them around for that perfect team, also K9 unit.
It's basically a Ghost recon RPG and thats fucking awesome haha!

If game play is anything like GRFS, it should be great! There were a few kinks, but hopefully that was all worked out and fixed for this.
Cant wait

I'm curbing my enthusiasm for this game till it's playable. As we know Ubisoft can be hit and miss.

[GasClown]

Yeah I'm the same Aro. I think a lot of people are tbh.

@Saints unless something has changed and I have somehow missed it there is no friendly AI in the Division.
The devs are very forward in saying the game is fully playable solo but it requires a constant online connection to be played and of course you will have to enter the Dark Zone for better gear which will have other people in it and I would guess most wont be too kind to solo players.

The damage system is like in Borderlands you do damage by dice roll and that's how the RPG/progress system works into it.

[Saintsy]

Agreed about Ubisoft, but when it comes to these games, they're generally solid (Couple bugs at release but nothings perfect)

My hard on for the game just got soft..

Bugger lol. Guess it was too much for them to handle in the end and they did such a good job with the GR series with friendly AI.
Maybe its one of those "we said no but we changed our mind" deals.. Yeah lets go with that.. aha

You can turn you attention to Ghost Recon Wildlands instead as unless something changes with that, its 4 player co-op with those the 3 other teamates filled with any combination of human or AI players. Though I wouldn't be surprised if it slips into early 2017 though.

[GasClown]

I'd still be skeptical with both games - I (personally) hate getting my hopes up too high only to be really disappointed that a game turns out average... happened so many times now. Don't get me wrong, I hope they're both unbelievable and we're all blown away.

I had completely forgot about this!
Tis a shame Division wont have that AI system but cant all be winners haha, still gonna enjoy both.

[Aromaci]

Not sure if I'll enjoy how bullet spongy some of those enemies are.

[spectre51]

^Yeah it was the biggest thing to get use to in the little time I played it at the EB Expo. Its a Tom Clancy game so you do go in expecting enemies to go down quickly especially after a few in the head but you really had to put a few rounds in them between ducking for cover so you don't go down yourself.

[Saintsy]

Slowly losing hype for it the more they release new stuff.
Looks like its going to be a frustrating spam bullets into his head game.
Apparently its on the Watch Dogs engine so that's probably a concern lol.
Also how can there not be any friendly AI team mates in this game? The "People" playing this game are either purposely clueless, or they're AI lol.
Here's hoping they don't FC#K up GR:W!

Can't believe all the people having a cry over this game. And bitching about 'graphical downgrade'. Have these people not been paying attention for the last decade? The vertical slice they show when a game is announced is 99% of the time not a 1:1 representation of what the game will actually look like. How have people not learned this yet? So much for gameplay over graphics. Guess we know now what gamers really care about.

Aye, even in the strategy genre, you see people complaining about visual (as opposed to UI, which is another thing entirely) issues.  Just what we're generally like as a species.  I find it rather entertaining that any game coming out that's in the AAA space has people complaining about the visuals - they all look very sharp imo!

[Saintsy]

All interest is pretty much lost in this game now tbh. Reading through comments and alot feel the same way.
They could lose quite a bit thanks to all these clips they're releasing. .

Cover to cover system looks clunky and terrible (Comparing to GRFS)
Extremely spongy for higher levels, get the feeling killing 1 high level enemy will take 5+ clips.
Might pick it up cheap down the track but this game is no where near worth $80+

This makes me so sad - I long for the day when higher level enemies are just as vulnerable to bullets, but are instead smarter.  Sympathies at a game with promise early not coming through with the goods.

Been playing the Beta. Really enjoying it so far. Love the loot system. Dark Zone is fun and also kinda scary. Waiting for loot to extract is tense. Though I've found that there haven't been too many Rouge players looking to gank.

Can definitely see myself sinking many hours into the full release.

[Saintsy]

Does it feel spongy though?

[Aromaci]

Not really. Regular guys go down quick and the elites I've come across haven't been anything too absurd. Plus, like any RPG if you make use of your new loot and gun upgrades it's not an issue.

[Axe99]

This be good news, great to hear Aro .
