    Another Week...

    Hi folks, a week is over and here comes MY experience in The Division 2.

    Let's get to the bugs.
    The reviv bug is the most annoying bug for me in this game at the moment.
    When I confessed my last mission to Legendary, it was just a disaster. 3 of my people were dead so I tried to resuscitate them and what a surprise the reviv bug hit. So what happened people left the game.

    Then we come to the damage glitch.
    Yes I tried it myself to see if it was really as extreme as almost everyone says and what can I say the game really started to be fun again, almost like a video game.
    Just on the edge.

    What I want to say with the whole
    I love The Division 2 no question, BUT at times the game is dead for me.
    I feel fooled by the developers, I pre-ordered the game for a total of ~ 130 € and only bought this Gear 2.0 for me is the biggest ashing ever.
    I feel like I played a beta for 1 year only to reset the whole game 1 year later? Yes Gear 2.0 has a few advantages but more disadvantages.
    Building sets is too easy, talent is only possible on the chest and on the backpack WHY?
    Mod slots are only 2 possible WHY?
    Then they are not even that good.
    Holstered talents are gone WHY?
    Exotic weapons are a complete ******** in my eyes, or would you say if you play the Chamelion you are "strong"? Not me. And NO it's not my gear.

    But what is your experience with the game at the moment, please write it below but do not forget factually!

    We come to group searches.

    I would say I am ready for the endgame by that I mean heroic missions and legendaries BUT if I start a group search for legendary why the hell come players in my group which have an SHD LVL of 30+ and I have an LVL of 375. The LVL does not say anything about the skill is clear to me, but you simply had more advantages with a higher level.

    Maybe you don't agree with me no problem, that is also my experience with the game, but at the moment I find the game just a complete waste of time.


    Didn't the developers say there is less but better loot? No, that's not right.

    Didn't the developers say that when you play higher missions you get better things?
    No, that's not right.

    And so on and so on.


    And what does my end word look like?

    I am a veteran in this game but every step forward feels 2 steps back.

    When Gear 2.0 came I had everything, every exo just everything.
    My built sets were "good".
    Just to earn everything again 1 year later? No thanks.
    And yes, that's my opinion. Many will say "The guy is talking ********" but some will say "Yes, that's right".

    So to get to the point now.

    The game is currently frustrating.
    Bugs (Reviv Bug, enemies shooting through walls, Hayenas have a stupid movement,..)

    Unbalanced (rifles and LMG are the king)

    Developers who only talk instead of acting and only want our money.

    That's my experience with 1120 hours of play.
    I want my old division back. And no, I'm not just a guy whining around.

    But more importantly what is your opinion about the game and about the update? Please write it to me below. I don't want to hear any insult or anything, let's talk as a community.

    Have a nice day and don't forget "Wash your hands": D

    Ah and something else. Spelling mistakes are free, I work with Google translators.

    Not going to lie, playing the game again just before the Big Update was alot more fun than playing it now, Gear 2.0 is... a mixed bag while it is easier to get the build you want now the builds you can make are much more focused ... and limited, I do NOT like having to choose between Skill Tier, DPS or Armor cause in my experience in anything but Normal going hald and half is a death sentence.

    Yes I know I'm exaggerating a little.

    Now you either sacrifice armor and any tech power to do anything resembling decent damage to anything Vet or above and though apparently a rebalance is being worked on so I can hope they become just bullet sponges and now bullet voids to other builds.

    I could deal with the TTD if the TTK wasn't so horrific... I miss the days where armor was damage reduction not just big numbers

    Yes, that's a good answer. : D

    Is it so hard to read the whole post and maybe think about what I mean by that?
    Oh yes, before you think, you just write "Then don't play it". Is that the solution to the problem? Or that the game is not playable at the moment?

    I had about 600+ hours before the update and it did become a bit boring to play to be honest, it just was to easy for me. Then they updated the game and it was tougher again which personally I did like a lot. Of course there are many new bugs (or old ones reappeared) that came along with the changes and some do make the game impossible to play when running into them. Luckily I didn't see many of them myself but I also don't own the expansion so there is less content to be bugged. Still having fun after 150+ hours post TU8 but also getting a bit bored once again with the old content and it is starting to feel easy again, except when you group up in teams of 4 players.

    Can only agree that early adapters of the game payed a lot for a game that quite frankly doesn't exist anymore. Yes it still is shoot-them-up game but everything around that is either gone or changed dramatically. Having said that I do believe that we will get another big change in the future considering the current state of the game. So who knows it will swing back again towards what it used to be in the past. Unfortunately I also think that it will be included in another DLC, so in the end you are actually paying for game patches. Just like Warlords that contains a lot of things that were missing in the first place and also required to keep up with the new game play.

    Yes it is true that game was "too easy". However, I don't like it when I go on a heroic mission and have to chase one magazine after another into the enemy (even with a good build) just so that he is dead. As an example we take the shotgun type from the Heyenas with the gun. He has a shotgun he was 22 yards away. He shot and hit me well. In my eyes, he shouldn't even hit me from 22 meters with a shotgun. If I stand in front of the opponent and he pulls the trigger once and I'm dead then no problem. Only in some situations you just have no chance to defend yourself. Yes I know it is heroic and yes it should be difficult. As I said you can argue about it.

    The game wasn't easy. The game lacked options to make it difficult or the hardcore players lack so much initiative & imagination that they can't make a challenge for themselves.

    Before TU8 if I wanted the game to be harder I played heroics solo with less powerful weapons or only sidearms, or only with 1 weapon. You can make the game harder by yourself!

    Now we have directives & I think the Devs could've made the spongebobs & ubergodwtfdamage into directives as well.

    The game didn't need a difficulty boost or nerf. This needed to be left alone, bugs needed a serious fix wave & a whole lot directives for those who lack imagination for challenges.

    For me it's mixed. I love the recal library, more defined roles (Tank, heals, DDs), the new missions and story. Though, currently, it seems we're in a "Go red or go home" era, which is kinda hot cheese for players like myself.

    Tanking is my jam, always loved being on the frontlines in other games, drawing aggro, taking hit after hit but, continue to push forward. Giving other players breathing room to damage or reposition and such.

    What I miss though is the complexity of builds, I use to be able to make outside the box builds. With the right rolls they could be effective and used even in the hardest content when optimized enough. Not the case anymore.

    Though I will say, I won't miss hive/seeker spam in nearly every mission I matchmake for lol.
