Is this worth coming back? I went back to W3 and SC2

If the gameplay was stale to you it probably wont hold your interest too long.

They should have introduced a level cap increase with the HVTs / PVE expansion

It would have given ppl more to play for

I think new players will still enjoy the game. The end game is the problem.

1.2 looks like its going to be a big improvement.

All of the changes resolve the majority of complaints.

Pve expansion = more to do outside of the dz

DZ changes = loot tables will now make it worth going into the dz youre rewarded for going in the higher (more dangerous) areas of the DZ

DZ brackets will be more granular now the people with DZ levels below 200 wont have to worry about better geared rogues

Bosses loot tables are being adjusted. So they drop better shyt.

Pretty much its going to rebalance the game.

Hopefully it works, the really big thing for me is, time investment, I don't want to play for an hour and not get anything, only thing left for me at 1.1 was the incursion but of course that didn't really work out so I was pretty much stuck between that and new games it was pretty much game over for me.
I might have link into expansion so hopefully they offer something new.

The big things for me are better loot, more variation (they have some guns that can light people on fire or blind people but they're ultra rare), release the other maps on challenge mode (why hasn't this happened yet?!)
I'd really like to see some variance in the missions like maybe have it some you have to coordinate: say there's some package that needs to be delivered but if you leave the control room the enemies will close the door, so part of the team has to stay and fight off the enemies while the other part of the team delivers the package. How about introducing night vision goggles and you have to turn off the power in a high rise and then turn off the generators level by level as you try to kill the boss? You know something.

When I was playing UC4 I missed some of the options you have for things like crowd control or offense in the division.

I want you and everyone else who talks about time investment to watch this video. One of the best videos you can see about games like this.

Hit 30 2 days ago. Played it a little bit since then. Got my gear score to about 140'ish. What's best to do now. I usually play with one of my boys, and sometimes 2 others. I'm tryna get my shyt right. What should I do next? I got my eyes on that yellow Vector :noah: but it seems like it's gonna take forever for me to cop. Anyways, how can I make my dude a bad ass mofo?

Something tells me the people who had a hard time doing the incursion will have a hard time in the new darkzone...
I'm just glad high value targets will be a way to get better gear without doing the same 4 challenging missions over and over again.
I watched your vid by the way, I think that the division definitely lacks what apparently vanilla WoW and FF14 have, the thing that you work for "end game activity" and the path that you go down to get it.
I remember playing Destiny and being like yeah I'm level 21 now but I just have to grind for hours on end doing the same damn missions to do the raid? nah man I'm out

What the division lacks is variety. You shouldn't have to just travel to the dark zone to see other people. People in the light zone should be all out on the street too and only in the dark is where the can go rogue. It's funny because going rogue is totally bad but it's the new norm and you don't even get truly penalized. There shoulda been two stories of this game... Players who wanna go rogue right off the back and regular division agents
