Mister Pink Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) That's a pity. I was thinking of picking this up second hand (I haven't played it since the beta) I watched some videos about the 1.4 patch or whatever patch it was purporting to fix the game but then the commentator was talking about the endgame and it had me thinking that the purpose of the game is just to level up? Is there a story or a backstory online so I can at least think I'm fighting for some cause or is it just a mindless shooter?

Just be glad that DZ is no longer the only place to farm better equipment now. Phantomspirit and Mister Pink 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fireman Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) You are required to have internet connect/be online to play, but you can play single-player nowadays. You'll just miss out on most of the instances until you overpower them by lucky drops. Edited January 20, 2017 by Fireman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trip Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) So, is there a SP campaign or is it all online? I've been playing all SP. Up until now... I actually popped in here to see if anyone wants to co-op a bit with me(xbox one). I'm old, slow, easily confused, and not very good at shooters anymore. At level 17 I'm finding some of the battles to be a bit tough and having to respawn and walk back to the same battle for hours - only to die, rinse, and repeat is starting to get at me. I figured I'd post in here before using the Xbox 'find someone to play with' feature.

I don't know if low level session is still populated now, but just try it anyway. You know, what I like about PvE Matchmaking in this game is that there's next to no chance or reason for teammate to be a dick to you.

trip Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) Why don't you use the in-game Matchmaking?I get weirded out voice chatting with people who are a 100% stranger. At least here(gtaf) I pretend I know people. I have used the in-game match making in the past for missions. What I'm looking for now is just one (or more) to walk the open world streets part with...doing the encounters and such. Someone who will be understanding of my stupid ways.

You don't need to do voice chat. I'm like you; I don't like to voice chat to random stranger. Just play good. If you can't shoot well, then stay back, help revive or heal or distract enemies. They'll appreciate you. trip 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireman Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 All I did in this game was Skill-Power based abilities, I took three random people with me who (like every other player in the Division) only care about DPS. Always great success as I had a 40% Crit Bonus/100% Crit Damage Pulse and a maxed out Smart Cover as well. Now unfortunately they nerfed the hell out of Skill Power and you can't get good numbers like that anymore, but healing is always appreciated, or a ressurecting tank build or something. I would play with you but I'm on PC. trip 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude, if we ever have the same game like The Division, I'm in same boat. I'll be happy to co-op with you or anyone else similarly minded for that matter. I'm not super fast on reflexes in shooters although getting a little better. I'm more of an SP guy but love when you are with the right type of chilled people doing co-op which his few and far between for me.

Ai®a©ob®a Posted February 25, 2017 Author Share Posted February 25, 2017 They named it The Last Stand because they probably know this game is dead and this will be their last stand for the game EvolvedWalker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick1020 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Actually Last Stand was announced months prior. It's probably not timed exclusive because the game is nearly dead. I only wished there'd be an incursion that involved killing that one first wave agent who escapes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzzknuckles Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 So is no one playing this anymore? I've just got it, playing on PS4 Pro. It's a beauty, but it feels really weird playing it in solo. Signatures are dumb anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin-Wood Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 As someone who's clocked a good chunk of time into it, you have to have pretty thick skin. The community, especially on Reddit, is one of the most toxic I've ever been involved with. And don't get me wrong, they do have some ground to stand on but the constant bitching and moaning and bile that gets tossed around daily... It really stems from developer incompetence, specifically poorly handled PR and a season pass that amounts to three game modes that honestly should have been there day 0. Underground is basically a ghost town, Survival is a novel idea but can be rage inducing, and Last Stand is just a king of the hills battle with score multipliers. And of course, the story hasn't really been resolved, I won't spoil it for those who haven't played it, but they very clearly left the game open so that they had sequel material.

Phantomspirit Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Patch 1.7 attracted me back due to the ability to redesign my character, low and behold , you can only change your friggin hairstyle and even that is limited to what face you had.

Audi Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 (edited) I toss it in and wander around admiring the details, but never actually finished it (only level 18 on male toon, 8 on female). Graphically beautiful game without question, and the DLC's they've added over time seem okay (more pve instead of forced pvp of the dz), but they lost too much of their player base early on and never recovered. Also MMO's and their obsession with op ai and grinding and crafting gear has never been my thing. The modern military 3rd person shooter thing fooled me into getting it initially.

Claude4Catalina Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 It was the ridiculously overpowered AI that Audi mentioned that really turned me off. You're part of what is effectively a guerrilla unit so crafting is fair enough, grinding I could deal with; creating your own mini-missions of clearing out pockets of enemy occupiers was a decent way to pass the time but bullet sponge AI really dragged the whole thing down for me, especially seeing your bullets hitting a basic enemy straight in the face a hundred times only to slowly chip away their body armour. I still maintain its a create concept; a major US city has fallen so its time to do your part, but the MMO/RPG elements applied to a military shooter didn't work out as great as they should of. Shame really. Phantomspirit and Audi 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantomspirit Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 (edited) Just dipped my toe back after completing Mafia 3 and then playing the Godawful, Just Cause 3 ,for the first phase only .Being a solo player, and hating the Dark Zone, I have been fighting the free roam bosses, and really appreciating the amazing world created here again, even better than Fallout 4 in my opinion. This is a very accomplished and very special game, and should go down as a real achievment in the gaming world...bravo Massive you are a game developer on a par with the top developers in the genre...

Phantomspirit Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Ok, now the downside...patch 1.8 weapon nerfs, WTF? What is it with this game developer? As soon as you get a good build, they friggin nerf it? The weapons getting their balls cut off this time and firing friggin blanks, LVOAC, M4, MP5, MP7, amd wait for it, The Pakhan, why oh why would you nerf an Exotic when the whole game is about gearing up? These are a lot of players go to weapons for PVE, so we now need to now start over....sigh......please any advice for the next best weapons for PVE and PVP, any help welcome...

PaeganLoveSong Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 I've found the G36C, Tactical ACR, and Liberator to be great AR's to use besides the favorites, and my go-to SMG's are always the Tactical Aug 93 and the MP5-ST.

We Are Ninja Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I picked this up for $8. I've unlocked HELLA beanies. My character's head is warm AF. The amount of beanies in this game is staggering. I can't get past the bullet sponges, tho'. Dude in an alley wearing a hoodie, literally eating headshots from a heavy sniper like it's candy. Dude is running at me, completely shrugging off headshots, not even slowing down. -_- Cosmic Gypsy, Phantomspirit and Audi 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
