    So, if you buy something from Best Buy that's garbage do you just go buy something else?

    We were lied to and flat out scammed. There was no reason to have 2 libraries, no reason to not properly convert our gear, and no reason whatsoever to lie about it.

    This expansion is a joke. This is how The Division 2 would look like if you tried to get Fortnite kids to play it.
    Just leave this forum as well. No need for so much negativity.

    The Division 2 does nothing better than anyone now. Complete garbage.
    Then, shut your mouth and go to sleep.

    Did you experience Title Update 6, and did you buy WoNY? If you have - stay with it, complete the manhunt and then you can say something about it. Attention to detail pays, as always. And stop being negative, it harms you at most.

    The most common recurring complaint about the game was the gear. This needed to happen. And why "properly" convert it? Even if you didn't get the expansion the score goes to 515 so you were going to need new stuff anyway. I played both division games since launch and I'm happier the way this game is now. Quite frankly I think people are just upset they didn't get to keep their high rolls. I wasn't lucky enough to get that 30% armor roll last summer when it was for sale. But the fact that you couldn't ever get it was upsetting.

    I had several builds before the update that got wrecked and took a great deal of time to put together, particularly an SMG clutch build that could facetank and win almost every time even against AR clutch builds. I had a skill hybrid LMG build that made the raid child's play. All that's gone but I don't care. I'll make new builds. Pve now offers some challenge and pvp is more even. Can't argue with that.

    I am also very happy about the change. FIrst it took me some time to get used to 'losing' all you best skill mods you collected over the time, but i'm fine with that.
    Before the change the game had become way too easy. You could just Seeker + BTSU everything. Now the game is challenging again and build diversity is a thing.
    Please just don't nerf things too much again in the future!

    Ok. You’ve been peddling the same stuff and attempting to make your point for hours now. Why waste the effort if it’s garbage and irredeemable at this point?

    Yes, you feel like you’ve been “lied to” and “scammed.” Ok, fair enough, we’ve heard it. It’s not discussion at this point, it’s just you going into every thread you can arguing with anyone you can.

    Fine, you’ve been scammed. You’re right, file a lawsuit, complain to your local consumer protection agency. Good luck with that. Then get some sleep.

    I was very excited to get to try gear 2.0 but I must admit I've been deeply disappointed.

    I have yet to see level 40 gear, but seeing my 197% Hive radius mod transformet to 4.5% health, and later on finding a +2% Hive radius... I mean, what use do mods have anymore?

    I thought mods would make skill usable for players who specced into weapon damage or defence, and great for people who specced in tech... but they're pretty much a joke.

    I've been playing with an AR up to level 34, I could not get past that since I could not advance the story, but if that's it all the builds will pretty much be identical, not even concentrated around a specific weapon because they will all be interchangeable.

    I have no problems playing with weapon damage, it's what I've been doing for most of the time I played the game, but I was expecting inventive new talents to build around, intead they're pretty much the old talents with a bit of flavour changes.

    "After watching up and reading up, not only do I think WoNY is going to be one of the best expansions I've seen in awhile, I think I was wrong about a couple of my assumptions.

    2016, 2017, and 2019 were just horrible years for gamers as consumers. We were completely mislead by Hello Games and No Mans Sky, I was an unfortunate recipient of the Fall Out 76 grocery bag, and I don't even want to talk about how Anthem made me cry. Those were just my experiences. That doesn't include what we seen with Battlefront and EA and with Ubisoft's own Breakpoint on release. I think maybe I've just been burned and was a little paranoid, even cynical coming into 2020. I guess when I seen some of the details of the expansion for TD2, I unfairly misjudged Massive's intentions.

    I thought maybe they gave us 2 libraries to force us into buying the expansion, that doesn't appear to be the case. I thought maybe gear 2.0 was just pandering to the old guard of D1, that doesn't appear to be the case. I and many others have had our concerns, but it's understandable when you have to piecemeal everything together, and have seen what the industry has turned into.

    I haven't called for anyone's head, I haven't insulted the people at Massive, I haven't said I felt ripped off, or anything of that sort. I have however, been kind of vocal past week and wanted to take the time to pay it forward and say one thing,

    "Dear Massive, thank you. I feel for well intentioned developers today, I really do. Everything you do is under a microscope and you have to deal with one of the most vocal and obnoxious consumer bases in the world. So, thanks man. Me and my son have LOVED our time in DC. It's been some of the most fun times we've had in a game. That means something us because of what he's had to go through for the past 5 years. Gaming is kind of our oasis it helps him heal. That means something to me as a father, so I wanted to take the time and say thank you for not being greedy dicks."

    All the best, Aims

    PS - Looks like I'll see you guys and gals in NY soon!"

    Now everyone has to rebuild with new gear. You lose your good rolls that most people didn't have. I'm cool with that.

    I'm honestly glad the gear changed the way it did. It makes the game more challenging and you can't be good at everything. There is sacrifice involved now as there should have always been.

    I'm also happy about fighting other people that just happened to have better rolls than I did. The pvp is on a more even field than before. I threw a couple builds together and stomped teams because they had their God rolls as a crutch and now they're gone.

    Another thing to be happy about is the inadvertent and indirect nerf to booster hive. It doesn't really do much unless you are a skill build which is also pretty much halted the dancing around people have been doing.

    I know some people will be upset with these changes, but I think it will mostly be the people that were taking advantage of how broken the gear was. I farmed just as much as the next guy if not moreso and I still didn't have the best stuff and it sucks going into anything having spent so much time to still be weaker than you should be.

    However, my only complaint is regarding PVP. When going into pvp the stats change so much it is hard to say what is actually good or not. From what I can tell though, assault rifles have a clear advantage because the old PVP normalization values are still in place. So AR's don't really take as much of a hit as the other weapons.

    Overall though, very satisfied with the gear update.

    P.S. You guys finally, FINALLY put Shotgun damage on the first bonus just as I had suggested many times months ago. Even though you totally screwed over every non double barrel shotgun in pvp, still.
    Hey I get it, sometimes the Developers need some backing up so they make another account and post from there. Cool story man.
