Thanks a mill!

So the extra episodes are available with the base game, just you get them sooner with the Year 1 pass, that right?

Yupp and 3rd just released with it free to all players in 1 week so i can't see the 1 year pass as being worth it.

Get the base and if you enjoy it, the upcoming expansion for 30 euro would be purchase enough.

With year 1 Pass you unlock the specializations automatically

You do also get 8 decent enough side missions in the 'Classified Assignments' with the Year1-pass. At full price not worth it alone but if there's only a few quid in the difference then it's reasonable. Taking your time each would be 20-30 minutes of well fleshed out content.

Coney Island should show as a mission on the top of your map, similar to Camp White Oak and the other add ons. I was able to fast travel to it immediately. Not a bad pair of missions, I'm looking forward to going back on higher difficulties as most of the main areas seemed to be laid out very well for run'n'gun play. I don't know what to think of the new specialisation yet though. I switched to an AR with Ignited (extra damage to burning enemies) figuring with a name like "Firewall" there'd be a fair few pyrotechnic skills in there, but nope, just the flamethrower. The grenade is cluster with no incendiary effect, which makes ZERO sense. Still the shield is decent and a nice change since I never really bothered with them in D1 or D2 so far. But it really seems like it's all Wall and no Fire (other than the signature weapon) on the skill tree.

Yeah that happened to me a few times. Did one of the classified missions last night and took me nearly an hour solo to do. Flamethrower with the new Firewall Specialization is alright.

Is this available now to year one pass holders? #confused

Yes, year one pass holders unlock specializations straight away, no need to do missions to unlock them.

What world tier/ great score are you? There are 2 free episodes 3rd will be available for free next week to non year 1 pass holders.

Look for Expeditions. 1st is dc outskirts and 2nd is pentagon. 3rd is Coney Island. They all extend the campaign story which bridges to the new expansion out in march.

Year 1 Pass holders get classified missions which are basically 30-40 minutes missions along with all specializations unlocked meaning you don't need to do missions to unlock them

Anyone get the hunter masks? I see they can be location and time sensitive. Any handy mask to pick up quick?

Also I've read conflicting things about increasing great score. 1 guy said it's the average of all items in your inventory and someone else did it's the average of just the items you have equipped. I'm fairly sure it's the latter?

AFAIK the GS used for calculating loot (versus the one showing for your currently equipped) is down to what you own in total.

I've got most of the hunter masks, I think I just have the 4-some one to activate next. Solo that should be....interesting . All are time and sequence of event sensitive - good guide here https://www.gamesradar.com/the-division-2-masks-hunters-locations//

So i don't have to keep equipping the highest gear score items? I have a savage lmg but it's 15 lower than my other guns but I've been equipping 2 shotguns as they are my best score.

Yup it's from your global pool (Inventory and Stash).

Big shout out to Eoin for getting me from 358 to 457 across 2 missions. Have to call it a night but that was a huge help. Tomorrow night, Tidal Basin is mine and then onto 500

I'm loving it all over again. I'm not into builds so my plan is wt 5, episode 1, 2 and then 3 next week and will buy the expansion in march.

Eoin put me to shame with his cool clothes and emotes though, gotta up my flair game.

There all from apparel cache boxes. With the year 1 Pass you usually get a few free ones during certain events

So the 4-Hunter mask challenge wasn't too hard. Well to be honest I only had to kill 2 for some reason. First try I took the CP next door, they helped when I triggered it and ran for better cover. Killed the first hunter and a few seconds later the others disappeared. Waited for the next night cycle and was able to trigger it again, same deal, killed one and the others disappeared about a min later. Next cycle and the Lever was inactive. Logged out/back/did another couple of day/night cycles worth of missions and then came back to it again. Still no lever activation option, but sitting on the other side of the Xmas tree in the center were 4 masks in a pile. I checked my inventory and yup it really did give me the last 2. Kinda disappointing as I was really looking forward to a prolonged fight with them all. Anyway, one more to do and that's done.

Also how come I'm now commander of the PC Boardsies clan? A promotion notice popped up 2 days ago in the middle of play but I ignored it at the time, figured it was a glitch but apparently nope. I don't know if it was automatic or manually done. Regardless I've begun securing my empire by redesigning the clan emblem a little bit, all hail the new fabulous (yes the clan is doomed).

Never bothered picking this up at release, cant say no to $2.99 in the US store..and so the grind begins!
