    I've mentioned many times that Massive has a vision of how the Division is to be played. If they find that players aren't adhering to this vision they simply change the "rules" to force them to, like "cut the rope" for example.

    didnt you promise to not do this?


    bit disappointing seeing most of the stuff i was looking forward to farming being behind activities i simply dont want to do.

    Ehhh, nah. There need to be certain items locked behind certain activities to make them worth while. If those items were behind a pay wall, I’d 100% agree with you, but they’re not. They’re 100% open to you, you just don’t want to put in the work to go get them. And look, I get it, I haven’t been able to put together a competent enough team to do the Raid, but that’s on me, not the devs. There’s tons of options out there for me to find 7 other players to join up with. If there’s something out of the DZ you’re looking for you can prob make a post here asking for help and you’ll have a ton of volunteers willing to help u. You just have to take the initiative to do so.

    First off, you're taking the phrase too literally.

    Play however you want never means that exactly. Skyrim boasted that but you had to hit enemies to kill them, you had to use/learn magic to do the college of magic quests, you cannot refuse some of the daedric quests because you'd die on that decision.

    Kinda missing the point there chief. I found it funny how the OP is complaining about DZ exclusives, while someone else is complaining about open world "exclusive" loot.

    Maybe you should ask the person who claimed they were? It used to be the Pestilence was a DZ exclusive, but I'm not sure if that's still the case.

    My understanding of "play how you want" is that you can build your character to suit your play style, which (to a greater or lesser extent depending on how salty you are about Gear 2.0) is pretty much how it works. There's a difference between "play how you want" and "get whatever you want without putting in the work"; the OP might as well say they want all exotic L40 gear but they don't want to have to shoot any bad guys.
