The first of three expansions for Tom Clancy’s The Division – Underground – is now available on the Xbox One, PlayStation and Windows PC. Massive Entertainment’s first paid add-on for the game adds a number of new additions that will hopefully please high-level players who have worked their way up to level 30 and conquered even the most challenging Incursions. Agents who deploy into the Underground will be tasked to investigate a secret war that is happening below the streets...

Ubisoft has certainty not done a great job up till now dealing with cheaters, providing new content, and fixing broken exploitative content at all. Well now it seems they have head the cries of their fans and will at least attempt to remedy some of the worst cheaters in the game. anyone still playing the division...

Ubisoft and developer Massive rolled out The Division‘s latest major patch – Version 1.2 – a few days ago and with users finally settling in and logging on, it seems that there are more than a few problems with this latest update. Some bugs appear to be minor and can be fixed with a simple log out/log in while others have made entire characters inaccessible. One of the most pressing glitches for players who are at the forefront...

Patch 1.1 is live for Tom Clancys: The Division, the modern day Apocalypse ridden NYC is now full of more things to shoot, more gear to find, and much less crafting materials. I myself rushed home to play it last night (stream VOD here) the Vod actually starts right after the maintenance to fix the issue which was, some players found that their characters no longer existed. Ubisoft first reported this in a forum post and it...

Tuesday is going to be a big day for me and many thousands of other people. The first patch and bit of end game content is coming to Tom Clancy’s: The Division. That patch is set to bring a hi level raid, new gear in the form of green rarity set pieces, and massive changes to how looting and crafting work.

Continue reading...The Division the definitive review
I would like to find the brilliant mind who thought to themselves, what if we took the shooting of borderlands and Destiny, and smashed it in to the RPG world Diablo 3, then set it in an open world modern New York and made if feel real and plausible? After I met them I’d probably kiss them, because their idea was no doubt the grain of inspiration for the Tom Clancys: The Division. Just to give you...

Continue reading...The divisions first raid is on the way
Last week Ubisoft made a ton of changes to their online shooter RPG The Division, but in the end of their change log they also did something else. Teased new end game content, which I hope is the end game raid that they discussed previously. The exact statement was “Coming soon, we will be introducing new end-game activities, You say you want more info? Don’t worry, we’ll talk more about this big upcoming update within the next few...
Continue reading...The Division is not off to a good start
It seems no company can launch a game these days with out headlines proclaiming that the game is not doing well. The Division, the new, much hyped, MMORPG shooter, from Ubisoft has fallen prey to the problems of so many other massive multiplayer games before it. It appears that the games servers collapsed under the weight of the good ole USA’s player base. In case you missed it (or were sleeping like me) The division launched on Australian...

Ubisofts upcoming open world RPG shooter The Division is as good a candidate for monetization as the studio has ever had. Gun skins, personalized gear, and titles are all common purchases in MMO’s and Ubisoft could probably have gotten away with putting them in The Division. So you can imagine my suprise when I woke up to this tweet from Ubisoft community manager Natchai Stappers. https://twitter.com/natchai_/status/703229905409073152?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw The internet has commented that the fact that he said there is...

The Division is only in Alpha testing but gameplay footage is already leaking out like a sieve. Head to this NeoGAF thread to find where you can watch the videos. They show off the game at a level not seen before–but note that the game remains in development. These videos are a violation of the NDA that we know these players had to sign, so dont expect these videos to last for long. Its always interesting to watch...
Continue reading...The Division To Allow Some Realtime Swapping
In a pretty awesome Q&A video with the developers of The Division, some pretty neat details about the game are revealed: first and foremost, the ability to hotswap abilities and gun customizations while in the open world and in combat situations. It’s said that you can have two active abilities at any one time, however, you can swap those abilities out for any of the abilities you’ve earned to that point and the same goes for the appearance and...
