    Is it worth going back to Division yet?

    Just a quick question to help me decide if I want to jump back in.

    -Have they made it possible to collect all the gear yet? I was trying to collect all the sets but there simply wasn't enough slots so I was throwing away awesome gear and weapons to complete my collection. I'm a collector and completionist by nature.

    -Secondly. Do they still restrict your ability to get I to the Dark Zone with friends? I really became tired of throwing away all my high end gear just to get into a friend's game. I was very disappointed that I couldn't just store it somewhere and put on weaker gear.

    Thanks for your time.

    How far into the game did you get?

    The Division 2 in in the works, so I'm not sure I would tell someone to 'get back into' this one. Either you enjoy it or you don't. If you only play to collect the gear sets it's not going to be fun. You have to enjoy the content and building loadouts with what you have. As far as being a completionist goes, I think that would be a much harder goal than completing all the gear sets. There are some grind commendations involved.

    That said, if you enjoy the game play there is lots to do.

    With the DZ, I don't think that you can change tiers and hold on t your extraction bag. Most everyone is in Tier 5 anyway...

    Unfortunately it sounds like the same old flaws.

    It's a shame. The campaign story was great and the first rank of the dark some was fun but the constraints were just vicious. I don't like being pigeon holed into playing their way.

    I'm definitely not going to pre-order the game this time around.

    Maybe I can convince a few of my friends into playing Destiny.

    Thanks for the update.

    You aren't at all pigeon holed. When did you quit?

    Loot drops everywhere all I'm saying is that the game is more fun if that's not your focus.

    Shortly after 1.2 dropped.

    I was trying to collect every gear set and one of every weapon.

    At the same time I had to throw away certain weapons and pieces of gear, trading downwards, because they raised my rating and kicked me up into a different Dark Zone than my friends.

    Generally it was a very frustrating and antagonizing experience. I was hoping they'd increased the size of the inventory crate so I could continue collecting and I was hoping they started only counting your currently equipped gear for calculating dark zone.

    Inventory have been increased 2 or 3 times. However, there isn't much point in holding on to any gear as you level. If your friends play, I would suggest you all progress to Tier 5. The Dark Zone is not as important as it was back in 1.2.. I have not used it to get gear in over a year and I have literally all the gear the game has to offer often many times over..

    yeah man that was a long time ago. While we don't have loadouts for all sets available, you can now set up 6 loadouts that you can change between so the inventory management has come a long way. Its not perfect by any means but its not even close to the same game it was in 1.2.
