Do you think the episodes will be more like the story missions? I had the most fun playing the story missions solo and experiencing the story for the first time. I’m hoping that the episodes are like more of that. We slowly get to learn more about the Black Tusk as we explore the pentagon. Any thoughts?
My big hope for the episodes is to add better story and narritive to the game.
I liked the story missions, but the Div2 story itself was forgettable imo. There was no story moment that stands out, no characters that stands out, no morally questionable actions like in Division 1, nothing that makes me think about the future of the people/factions in the game.
The narrative set up in Division 1 had huge potential (the narrative was what drew me into the game), but imo the narrative wasn't improved in Division 2, if anything the narrative potential has decreased and I'm way less excited to see how the Division's world and people evolve. To some degree the Division 2 seems less serious as well compared to Division 1.
Not looking for anything great episodes. Just an improvement on the narrative and better story.

D.C. Outskirts: Expeditions
EPISODE 2
Pentagon: The Last Castle
EPISODE 3
Episode 3: To be Announced
Sound more like a different name for a content patch. Hopefully the expeditions are not just copies of FC:ND, but i doubt it. I don't think the story can be saved in those either.
Episodes are ‘free major content updates with additional narratives and missions.’ Episode one is called DC Outskirts: Expeditions. The second is called Pentagon: The Last Castle, the third is to be announced. I’m still intrigued by the story. I want to know who the leadership of the Black Tusk is (are). Is their aim a military dictatorship or do they genuinely believe that this kind of extreme force is needed to get things under control? What is going on with Arron Keener? The book and comic also make things more interesting. Yeah, I am a lore geek 🤓 Check out NGNgaming and Masterminds HD for lore vids. The episodes wow mentioned in the Division 2 roadmap.
