To the devs, please consider this
Dear Division 2 dev team, over the course of almost two years I have seen your staff ruin a beloved game. You changed 3 AR's from Division 1 and turn them into rifles in Division 2. You changed the ENTIRE gear format which has been abysmal and an abomination. One of your devs changed the ENTIRE way of the gear system and now it's in a state of chaos. Yes, we get it you all think it's fine, but I ask you this and I hope one of you like Bruce, Drew, Mackenzie or Nikki answers this thread and truly understand that the way this game is and the true state it is in, is not what this community wants. You say you listen and in reality with your State of the games you truly aren't. IDK why you just don't put out a major wide survey and ask the community what we want. Ubisoft your boss did it with Breakpoint and it had a lot of positive feedback. Also, the whole cheating scandal you all there handled that poorly and the data leak that Bruce Kelly said was data mined, which is a lie. Marco Stylez put a video out telling everyone he got it from a member of your staff. How did he obtain it? Hamish Bode is apart of MarcoStylez, Widdz and SleepYO's clan. Yet, they openly admitted to cheating and you all did nothing. I know you guys there aren't naive. But someone on your staff has to be held accountable for that. You have truly upset a lot of content creators that support your game and now they are bashing it and some are even thinking of bringing a lawsuit up against Massive. Also, can we change clan to Squad or Guild? With everything that is going on with systematic racism clan is very racist.
Now, let's get down to brass tax here. The Skyscraper (Summit) is terrible. The PTS I saw on YouTube there was no replayability at all. I do have a solution and here it is. You take Division 1 and 2 and you make them one game. You scrap about half the guns, including gear 2.0, you bring back the Lightweight M4, LVOA-C and ACR SS and make them AR's like they are in Division 1. You combine the Global events with that of D1 and bring the points system back into it. Also, make the new gear sets classified. By adding the point system back what you are doing is making it playable and making it worth the players time. You put Rogue Agents and Hunters at the end of every Legendary makes it that much more enjoyable. Basically you are merging both games and just call it The Division and add seasons every 3 months and new DLC and modes every 6 months. This way the PvP community is happy because you already have an established PvP. That way, the community is happy you as devs will be less stressed and won't get all this backlash. I'm telling you Massive devs that this is really the only way to save this game. If you continue this current path the community is going to leave and I have taken it upon myself to ask these questions and I have gotten a lot of feedback, but they like this idea. Massive, Division shouldn't have a sequel. It should just be like every MMORPG out there. Do what your predecessors Blizzard have done with WoW. Look at SWTOR, it's still star wars but it has expansions and people love them.
Thanks and I hope you all can consider this the communities proposal as a positive step forward
