Seriously, how good does this game look!

Story trailer. Looks like it's based on the real 'Directive 51' law in the US about what the government will do in case of a major catastrophe.

Exactly. It's a cover based shooter, when are you ever more than quick sprint or a roll or two from indestructible cover. It's a bit puzzling why they haven't done something about it before now - maybe the engine they're using or the programming involved to fix it isn't straight forward. Can they not sort out some kind of collision detection to tell when the edges of the mobile cover overlaps a permanent barrier/door/wall/fence etc and block this.

Seriously, take mobile cover out the game for the time being or disable/nerf it somehow.

Do any of you folks use the Tenebrae? Wondering is it worth getting as I'm not sure how much the First Wave M1A is or how long that would take to obtain.

Just bought it last night. Nothing special really. I do like it but my load-out is geared toward sniping so YMMV.

Probably not worth it if you only want a decent sniper rifle to use sporadically.

It's a bit of a beast at mid range though, with a 8x CQBSS scope and mods that boost stability and headshot damage.

You can get up to 40 rounds in the mag just with a purple extended mag.

I also like the look of it

it defo was a backward step for me ah well, as you say it would have been good alright a couple of weeks ago when I couldn't get the MP5 but now meh, I wont give up on it just yet

I think the Pakhan was the first HE weapon I got, almost cleared out my funds at the time but was worth it. As creed mentions it's great against elites, I had an extended mag on mine which gave 93 rounds per mag, it was savage, handy enough to control too. Used it as my primary until I had enough pcredits to get the Vector, then used it as secondary.

Managed to play a few hours this evening since the patch, those gear set pieces are bloody expensive at over 300 pcredits each! Guess I'll start saving for some of them.

Bought a Tactical AUG A3P blueprint from the safehouse in dz3 which rolled fairly nice for me; Swift, Brutal and Ferocious I think it was. Finally replaced my Vector anyway so was happy with that.

I'd say don't bother buying any weapons or weapons blueprints until you're a level 30. If you're lacking a decent piece of gear elsewhere then go for it because in all honestly the credits you get are essentially worthless once you do hit level 30. Then it's all about phoenix credits and DZ currency (which I've yet to spend any of).

I'll spend the PC's as I feel I need to but I'm saving the DZ currency till I hit Level 75 and then that sweet super high end Vector BP will be mine.

dreamers75

Bought maybe 1 gun at level 3 then figured out scrapping everything was the way forward as you always found better.

Spent neatly 2 million on the Cassidy Pakhan and a Vector, instantly found better weapons on the very next mission

Drunk purchased the Phakan last night why I dont know (drunk at 2am in the morning is the obvious reason) thing is I dont need it as I have a gold Navy MP5 which is awesome but I spent over 400,000 of my hard earned credits on it... is it any good I have all the talents up but by hell does it kick up when you pull the trigger.

It's a very effective Anti-Elite weapon, only middling otherwise. Primary mods should be for Stability (both types), RoF and Mag Size. The kick is controllable, just like playing BF or similar games you learn to manually compensate as you fire (slowly push down). I used it for weeks before finally upgrading to the MP5 (which is much better overall).

That'll teach me, otherwise had good fun running through all the daily missions with a bunch randoms last night all had mics so we breezed through the Russian consulate even on challenging

Aye, the last few weeks have been very disheartening. They just keep breaking the damn game, it was better before they released the first patch. What's worse is they haven't shown any real commitment to or common sense when trying to fix exploits - Hell even that git Natchai was doing smilies on his post basically debunking their previous hints that they might punish glitchers. Mobile cover being used repeatedly to perform various glitches...remove it?....hell no...just cripple rewards for anyone who doesn't glitch. I mean what kind of retarded monkey would make that choice? I love the core game, the engine is fantastic, I really enjoyed early days in the DZ but it's becoming a chore to play now. I'd just doing the dailies in what I am increasingly thinking is a vain hope that they will get their act together and fix/re-balance the game.

As for the argument on Incursion glitching the blame has to be shared between Massive and those that have abused it. I'm sorry but those trying to justify it by saying it's just the Dev's fault for leaving it in there are just trying to justify their own engagement in a practice that has essentially shattered the playerbase for the DZ. If it wasn't for how it has affected the DZ I wouldn't care, to me I still wouldn't use the exploits because the fun of the game is in earning the higher end kit, it's in the actual challenge not in simply owning a set of pixels that do better damage to other pixels. The mentality of those that would pelt stickies at a non-moving target for hours to earn enough set pieces just boggles the mind, it completely removes the reason to earn it in the first place. Unless the intent was to overpower folks that didn't exploit in the DZ. Which again is pointless since they way it is going now you are likely only to meet other sad fools who did the same, removing said advantage.

I was ready to buy the season pass on day 2, and I almost never do that anymore, luckily I held off to see what the monthly rewards would be (crap), and how the game would develop. Basically if they do not majorly overhaul the game, their approach to patching and rebalance the current playerbase (have named bosses in and out of the DZ drop 204-240 gear for a few weeks) this game is done. The only folks left will the people that exploited the hell out of it and by their nature they don't have enough patience to actually play the game as intended and will simply move on aswell.

at this stage now it's just a matter of what they break next.
You can slag Destiny all you want about missing content etc and the same few raids but it was extremely stable in game.
People had problems connecting etc but once you're ingame it was rock solid.
The Division seems to be a test on how fast you can lose customers by ****ing things up on a regular basis.

mossym

same dailies again today. more dirty dollars. getting ridiculous now

patch this morning, only real chance was only the C4 can damage the APC. pity they didn't think of that before people exploited the hell out of it and are still complaining.

Wonda-Boy

I have found the best combo to be 4 x Striker gear and 2 x Sentrys Call....AMAZING SETUP. I only have 3 x 240 pieces of gear the rest are 214....bought the rank 75 Vector in the DZ the other night for 250,000 DZ funds but its VERY VERY hard to even get one good perk on the gun (Brutal, Fierce etc) I rolled it 11 times now and stripped out all my resources. And you need to have very high stats in all three areas to equip one of the other perks!!!!

So I have a 204 gear score gun that is worse then the gold Vector I already have as I dont have 2550 in all DPS, Health AND SKILL POWER!

that moment when you clear a boss in the DZ. next thing there are 4 other lads there. not a move out of any of them. you know what is going to happen, but anyway, you grab the gold, then next thing all 4 open up. bang dead, gold gone.

next time i'm going to leave the gold standing there. was a nice m1 too. i just got a chance to see what it was before they wasted me

got a pair of sentry gloves though which softened the blow

Next time don't pick up the gold if you think you are going to be killed like you say. Until you pick it up, no one else can collect your enemy drops. So when they kill you, wait for them to leave, then stroll back up for the gold.

No where near worth the hassle TBH, if in a group of 4 and no premium loot on board I go for them. Only to kill the boss, the reward in the chest is useless to high level players unless you very lucky.

Then the chance of getting killed by other players is high also. But so so easy even with full AI on site to pop survivor link and secure without firing a shot!

I do them just for the named boss kill now tbh and the one in 10 chance you night get a green (roughly the odds going by my groups findings). I generally try to pop as many AI as possible now because it's the easiest way of ranking up in the DZ.

I have 5 greens now, and I'm running with three of them, two being strikers gear so I'm going to go for that set now because the 4 piece bonus is excellent. I bought the second last night and it's really imoproved my secondary stats even though it's pulled my dps down a little.

I had been running an AUG at 170k and an M44 at about 120k. The health was pretty low though at around 50k so I've played around, got my primary dps to 130k secondary to 90k and the health to 70k. I have all the bonuses on my AUG too which helps and the fierce bonus on my M44.

A wee tip for anyone running a marksman rifle in the DZ is to equip explosive rounds if targetting high level rogues. 2 head shots with them will take down most rogues regardless of their level. Great especially if they are perched up on a roof somewhere.

Erm.. it's fairly easy to get at least one. They have a boss protecting them so it's worth running them down if close enough. As for the loot it's been one set piece for me and the rest I've ever gotten were purple so pointless.

I find that there is generally nobody else around to take them, so not too exciting really. They are surrounded by a bunch of elites but you can usually just grab it and leg it without needing to kill them.

It's not wrong per se. Certain damage types will wreck you regardless of stamina stats. A shotgunner at close range or sniper zoned in on your head are gonna deal a hell of a lot more damage than a guy with a rifle from 30 meters away.

Try testing it with taking explosive damage, or how often you get disrupted etc.

In DZ you can definitely see the difference between 60K health and 100+K. You'll get out of far more sticky situations with that little bit extra.

Ive done this in DZ also, even got friends to headshot me sniper rifles,shotguns etc, sticky nade me etc same result, its just pre calibrated bull**** [hey lets just take him down to 5% HP regardless of armour,resistances,HP etc] its a total joke.

Wonda-Boy

Player numbers are down big time you can see it in the servers, and the ones left are mostly the high end glitches. Shame really, scenario now is that 85% of the time you meet groups they are so over powered you ****ed. Better off doing a loop when you kill a boss with other there or make sure u get a few shots on boss and leave let all the rest do donkey work and u still get rewards.

Having said that was in last night with 3 mates and we met another group of 4. We were all obviously the same level as fights went on for ages and we had multiple engagements and it felt brilliant to have a normal fight again. Instead of instant death as soon as shots fired!!!!
