I have been solo playing the Beta and, as per the previous posts, I have only died when I have gone running into a daft situation.
I avoided the first Division due to the many comments I read about it not being a playable solo experience but, after a few hours of the beta, I am definitely tempted by the second game. The setting and gameplay is fantastic, reminds me a lot of Freedom Fighters (one of my all time favourite games).
My only real gripe so far are the bullet sponge enemies. I wasn't expecting hyper realism, but having to put 100's of bullets into one enemy seems daft.
i have a rifle and a shotgun. But to me the enemies are just too big of a bullet sponges where most of the times 3 or 4 bullets is all it takes to get killed. Just now I had one of those running ******s coming at me and a shot 3 shotgun shells at him/her whatever.. and the mofo still didn't die??!! (and no i didn't miss since it was close range) And I got 1 shotgun shell shot at me and bang..you already guessed it.. instant death. And call me crazy but that **** ain't balanced when you're at the same level as your enemy.
And THAT is my exact complaint about this game. The bullet sponge enemies that just keep on coming at you and as soon as you need to reload they (almost) instant kill you with their shotguns. If a boss is a bulletsponge then fine with me. but a normal enemy should behave like a normal enemy and walk around with a godlike attitude.

It seems you're as good at the forum as the actual game.
On topic, I have had zero issues soloing Division 1 or this one. Never played in a group.
@Darksoul30 wow.. Not sure what your doing wrong there, bud. You may need to work with some different weapons/tactics, or.. something. Just keep at it, you'll get it. I solo'd the available missions, and side missions, fairly easily.. Sure, I died a few times here and there. But after learning what mistakes I made to cause my demise, I adjusted, and beat the @#$% out of those Hyena mother@#$%&$#.
Endgame was pretty awesome imo.. looking forward to the full game.
