So when i started div 1, I did it as a mostly solo effort — it took yoinks, but after a while I was a top notch nomad with a “house” that kicked ***.
Then, I started div 2, and was suddenly insecure — all the stuff I could do, suddenly didn’t work anymore, and I was just dead.
What to do? I grinded through the ranks as a team player and reached level 499 in no time. But I don’t dare do solo anymore.... (nearly)
Anyone else with the same?
It was definitely a jump from the faster, almost abrupt pace of The Division to The Division 2. Like Neo_Wildcard mentions, it takes a shift of mindset. One piece of major advice I shared quite a bit in the early days of the beta and release was to try and forget some of what you've learned from other 3rd person cover shooters. TD2 is like them without being LIKE them. It's a different system that demands to be addressed as such.
I'm confident though that if you could learn, adapt, and overcome the challenges of The Division, that you can do the same with the sequel. It might just take a concerted effort, some friendly hints, and far less friendly mistakes along the way.![]()
I don't find that much difference in the game as I see it. In fact other than location I'd say D2 is a backward step from D1. Less to explorer. Can't enter as many buildings, explorer as many roof tops, or as many balconies or roofs to fight from not that they arn't there just not utilized. All D2 has going for it is the graphics. And nice scenery does not a good game make. You threw away what worked in D1 and produced a boring mediocre game. This game needs a real make over. Mediocre special missions for year one pass holders. Big boring fail. A so called raid that can't be played on console bigger fail. This game needs more help then D1 ever did.
