Not to be one of those people who post their melodramatic exit speeches here, but the PS store has a game on sale that I've wanted for over a year. So, I bought it, I'll finish the few stages I need to finish all of the league rewards. I was intending to finish out the apparel event, but it's not enough to motivate me into slogging through the game right now. I have zero interest in the upcoming "zombie" GE.
I'll come back for the next stage of the manhunt and the other leagues, but for the time being as an everyday login, this isn't that game. Which is regrettable. But Massive just continues as matter of practice to put up every obstacle and roadblock to continuing your character progression.
They get a fair amount right, but they blow it when it comes to the chase. The chase is what I assume most of us are after. The chase is fun until you hit the brick wall of unrewarding loot and unviable solo builds other than 1.
The game has been unrewarding since tu7, and surprisingly for me, they somehow managed to hit a new low. The game is crap now tbh, solo play is boring, drawn out and impossible in some cases. The bullet sponges and lack of diverse builds are still there, the whole thing is a complete and utter mess.Originally Posted by Ericjames2k2 Go to original post
Somehow i still keep playing thinking im missing out on gear or skins etc but as it turns out...im not...i just dont enjoy it any more, i last maybe an hour at best solo before i play something else. In a group i'll stick about if im enjoying it, its more the banter i enjoy from group play than the actual game. Think the first year has been my one and only year, cant see myself carrying on with this too much longer.
I was actually having a good time playing with a group of 4 on challenging yesterday. I have close to 1million in armor, i play in cover now most of the time because of the one shot kills, ive made some adjustments on my part. Then while playing i am getting rushed by one baddy and hit with his stick and all my armor is gone, really!!?? That sucked the fun right out. Who knew a tweaker with a stick was so powerful to destroy my armor so easily. Ill keep complaining and playing, hoping for a return to the game i had so much fun with before. At least before when i got taken down it was my fault, now not so much.
Agree with a lot of these posts. There’s so much potential but this game just seems to keep missing the mark. I play solo in the open world and group up for missions. It’s a nice change to switch back and forth, but open world has become almost pointless. Doing CP’s for blueprints feels like a waste because crafting never yields anything good. Exploring and finding crates is a waste because loot crates always drop purple. I stopped bothering to find them and pass them by now. I used to love roaming the open world for vanity item drops but that’s bugged and I don’t get any more. There’s no incentive to explore the open world any more.
I don’t do dailies any more because why would I put all that effort into just getting an item I’ll trash anyway? I may do the weekly, but the logic is the same as the CP’s... crafting is useless so whats the point?. So my open world experience is now just running from encounter to encounter, hoping I’ll get the item I’m looking for to improve my build and never do. That leaves missions, which for weeks now has just been just as unrewarding.
I had more fun going from 30 to 40, then to about 100. After that, it feels like I’ve just been spinning my wheels doing encounters and missions where half the drops are useless mods and the other half are useless items. And it’s not like I’m trying to farm the rarest exotic in the game either. I’m just trying to find a better backpack and chest piece... for weeks now.
The game is still fun sometimes. There are those intense battles you’re not sure how you survived that get the adrenaline pumping... but then the rush is deflated when you find the battlefield littered with useless mods and rainbow items. Had an intense final battle on Roosevelt Island yesterday and at the end there were 8 mods on the field... so frustrating. What a waste.
Some epic failbrain at Massive thinks this is the way it should be, this would 'motivate' the gamers out there to level up hundreds of stages. Although the forums are full of complaints about disastrous bullet sponges and heavily broken balance, Massive don't care about that feedback. They just can't do better.Originally Posted by franny4040 Go to original post
Now I'm not even going to bother finishing the league. There is a bug in the Washington Hotel mission when you reach the atrium, where it shows a hostile on the radar, but there is none, thus the door doesn't open to get to the roof.
This wasn't a thing last week, for me. So just another wall to stop people from progressing and/or shoddy craftsmanship of the game. Either way, the new game seems like a good investment now, even more so.
Massive, you have a good game and you screw it up on a nearly weekly basis.
I was going to buy the next season pass. That seems like a remote possibility at this point, unless you really get your act together on the next few weeks.
I have been really thinking that the devs sabotaged this game on purpose. How can something go from good to horrible? Was there no quality control? Someone to say ‘Hey guys this game stinks!’ SW Battlefront 2 started horrible, but they have gone in the right direction in fixing their game ( still not perfect, but going in the right way ) but Div 2 has gone the opposite way. Maybe its ying to their yang. Balance, i guess. SMH.
I’m new to the Division... And along with All the complaints I’m seeing... I with ya...but a friend got me to buy it when it went on sale for 3 dollars several weeks ago...I started playing and got hooked like a fish... they put the bait out there and I went for it... I have already amassed 300 plus hours and I must say... the exotic drops are horrible...😡😡😡... with all the grinding I have done since playing... 2 exotic drops is piss poor... I understand RnG... but in other games I play and invest time in... I get my fair share.. a hole hell of a lot more than this game... I’ve run the Tombs and Wall Street mission so many times now trying to get the bullet king... I could do them with my eyes closed... on all modes... ran them for 5 days... ridiculous... exotic drops need to be more frequently...I know the game makers could give a rats ***... but if changes aren’t addressed... I‘ll just **** can this game and let my feelings be know to all those I do game with and what a waste of time it is...Frustrated player!!😡😡
