    Division dev team alert alert

    Great idea for The Division. Should your enemies in game have tech and such, maybe you could incorporate hacking/overloading and control of that person's tech. I'm not very sure of the narrative, but should you incorporate this into the game, I think it would add on to the game tons. Also since I've heard rumors, just rumors of this game having to do with engineered viruses and the like, maybe you could unlock different viruses to use against enemies. Thanks for reading and making such great games.

    PS- Watch Dogs and The Crew look so amazing, you've really taken advantage of next gen consoles!

    Ok, lets start with the enemies. As far as have been confirmed only division agents will have the kind of tech we can see in the videos. NPC enemies will be "simple" criminals and desperate people who dont have any special tech. This does however not exclude the existance of that kind of skills as pvp will be a big part of the game. hacking other players would be a cool mechanic.

    And the viruses are the origin of the collapse of society. that, if i remember correctly, was released in a bio terror event by terrorist. you will probably not be able to use biological warfare against you enemies ingame. mostly because its not possible or practical. using a disease as a weapon is slow, dangerous and risk killing yourself aswell. there is a reason biological warfare falls under weapons of mass destruction.

    also, questions directed towards devs can either be posted in the q&a thread or if it is more of a suggestion on game features the suggestions thread would be a good start.

    To me the hacking seems like it would be fine with Watch Dogs, not so much with this game. Using biological weapons seems to be counterproductive to the story of restarting the infrastructure after the population is wiped out somewhat by a biological agent....just saying.

    opinion: as a fan of open world rpgs . I seem kinda pushed away with not being able to create my own character. Many of these open world games today offer you alot of selection with how you want your character. In my opinion this game would be flawless if i could create my own. take these other base charters and work with them in my squad , this would also offer more unique online play and realism.

    Ok, first off, not sure how this relates to OP.
    Second might be better in q&a thread or suggestions thread.
    third; it has by devs been confirmed that you will be able to customize your character. you would know this if you read the what we know thread, at the top of the page.

    ^ But it is much easier to just randomly post in someone else's thread off topic than it is to look up the information you are after.

    Sorry really wasn't trying to mess with someone board I am sorry for that, still getting the hang of these message boards.yes they do have chracter customization but not a chracter creation.you play with base characters , to Create your very own character would enhance the multiplayer to make you feel more unique in the open world game .with friends joing your fight as a individual not a known face or name. From my understand this is a base chracter structure . Similar to metal gear 4 customize the gear his looks but in the end your playing with snake not with your own personal character as sky rim.

    We are all new sometime, so no worries(not my thread i know but still)

    not sure what you mean since i never played mg4. but what it says in the "what we know" thread and you can read in the gamespot(i think) interview is that you can change hair, facial hair, colors, and clothing. to me this makes me belive they are gonna run with a standard character creation with set stuff being custumizeable. think all major primarily online rpgs. would just be silly by massive to have a fix set och base characters that you couldnt personalize. makes no sense, i dont think you have to worry

    Where is your source that states we work from preset characters and don't actually create the character?
