    I also can tell what needs to be improved, but I decided to focus on the positive things, that keep me connected to The Division 2. Reality is, it's not The Division anymore. But of course it's good to see something new from Marco.

    A wise decision.

    Marco totally nails it. This vid should be mandatory for the next kickoff or standup at Massive devepment.

    I know that here are a lot of Division veterans which will be satisfied with Division 2 - even if there will be only 1(one) weapon and gear set in the whole game.
    But as a person, who was playing in LineAge 2, World of warcraft and Guild wars 2 - I don't understand why so?

    What are you doing in the game to have a fun?
    I was even playing with "Spotter" and "On the ropes" talents to have at least some diversity during similar "kill-em-all" missions - but was faced requirement for raid "DTE and AWD - maxed!".

    Marco nails it.
    My extra "add ons" are:
    1: I actually think PvE is ok in this game. The Raid might be to tough now, and it NEEDs matchmaking. They could just have different levels of the raid. Like normal to Heroic. And on Heroic (like in Division 1) people would perhaps quickly figure out that they needed a good communicative group to do it. - And they should NOT lock a OP AR Exotics behind the raid. Just make the drop rates better in the raid.

    2: PvP - What to do about PvP ? - Its a hard one. But the trouble was already there doing the Beta. - I kind of thought: Ah well, it will get better with more people in here, and so on. But no.
    In my opinion its because there are no tactical plays in PvP. Its just run up, and see who has the most armour vs firepower. When you run out of armour you are dead. This could be fixed if you could have instant "armour kits" like instant medkits of Division 1. Then its possible to fall back, regroup, and so on. - Or perhaps take away the larger magazines in the DZ ? That way you would need to be tactical about stuff again. Do I want to reload , do I want to take the armour kit ? - today you have no options (in my opinion).

    Just my thoughts. I have not uninstalled the game yet, but damm I regret paying full price for it.

    I hope to see him branch out a little, to be honest. I like his no-nonsense style and utterly to the point even though I don't always agree with him. I mean in this instance he's absolutely right about the state of the game and most of the tubers I follow for Div2 content have slowed down or working on other content. Who can blame them? Making RNG interesting and fun should be a top priority for the developers.

    First let me say that I have sixteen builds, all maxed and perfected, in The Division. I could not work with just one build.

    But as I said in my previous post, I decide what I do - no one else -, to have fun, and I also have fun in The Division 2, but it's different and I have to accept that. I think it just works that way. The Division 2 is just at the begining, The Division is finished, I can't ignore that. I can tell you that I started digging, you know what I mean.

    It was a great video. He makes a strong point in the last bit of his video that the developers have to really, really understand the issues themselves for them to address the issues in the game. For us to move forward, they need to understand why the game isn't fun firsthand. It's concerning when you have community developers that barely have 40hrs in the game. How can you understand our frustrations or the issues in the game when you are not spending hours playing your own game? I can also see his point that this IP is becoming like watchdogs or assassin's creed.
