    How active is pvp on PC?

    I love this game. I had it on PS3, and loved it. I loved the PVP that much I was at one point 13th on the Outpost leader boards

    I have now got a nice gaming PC, and want to get this game. I watched my friend play it on a 970 (same as I now have) and love it even more, simply because of the incredible difference in graphics, but anyway...

    I wanna know if people actually play this online? I know the PC community will be much smaller compared to PS3, I understand that. But if I get this game, am I likely to have people to play with, like will I easily find matches, or does no one even play it at all?

    I'm really hoping this is not the case, as I think the PVP is just so unique, but please somebody please let me know

    i know i'll never play it again

    last time i did about a year ago the servers had tons of kiddies using god mode and unlimited ammo and speed hacks running .. it was not fun at all

    its a great single player game .. but like every game .... the little cheater kiddies have to ruin it for everyone on PC

    its a joke anymore i tried the star wars battlefront beta on PC .. within 2 days the servers were filled with people using aim bots and speed hacks

    first few days were fun and had no cheaters ... then the script kiddies came

    Public lobbies are all empty - no players around except your personal friends!

    Not true. Just finished like 20 matches, and it's Tuesday. It was fun.
    But. There are some cheaters. Two of the matches I've played got them.
    And because there are like four servers max in the Session Browser, you can't always avoid them. I reported them and I'll see how Ubi support responds.
    Ubisoft should really patch anti cheat into all their games which they still sell (Siege, FC3, FC4, AC3 etc.). But chances of that are slim since even their most recent game does everything client side: https://www.reddit.com/r/thedivision...with_cheaters/
