looks alright. kinda dig the cop and the firefighter and the paramedic. played the alpha and it feels like destiny with mass effect 2. not a bad design and it was fun. ill pick it up. TG-Chrono posted:Yeah the setting of something like Mass Effect or Destiny allows for really strong visual differences in the factions. I know of two factions in TheDiv so far has shown the 'Rikers' and the 'Cleaners'(?) where one is more melee and the other are roaming flamer dudes? Yeah, need to sell me more on the bad dudes cause everything else seems pretty alright. there are 3 so far, maybe more in the full game or in add on. 1. regular hoods, criminals, gangbangers, run of the mill generic dudes. 2. rikers, dudes who escaped when rikers fell and formed their own thing, 3. burners, sanitation workers/other people who formed their own militia to deal with the city, by killing and burning everything that isnt them or posibly infected with virus. muscles like this? posted:I'm wondering if some of the bullet sponge enemies might have something to do with the nature of the preview builds where they didn't really have upgraded/customized weapons. this. once you upgrade weapons, level up. you can slaughter the gently caress out of weaker enemies. from what i have scene. alot of areas are split into leveled zones alot like destiny. so level 3 dudes against a level 8 player, get wasted easy. aka like every other rpg.

Lumpy posted:I played for an hour on PS4 this morning. This game wasn't really on my radar before Monday, so I had no expectations, and am not really familiar with "cover shooters" or 3rd person games, so I guess maybe I am an unbiased reviewer? Anyway, my initial impressions: this. its alot more fluid and less bullet sponge then the alpha.

Perestroika posted:Dark Zones really do allow for some amazing shenanigans. We ended up at an extraction zone with almost everybody else in the zone, and because everybody seemed to be so afraid of everybody else people just took turns extracting their stuff in peace. Well, until we came along: oh god, the voice chat rage must have been beutiful.

Zaphod42 posted:Thing is, that's the point. your not using the logic that people who would be "offended" by this are using. showing/saying something(even if its done or said by the baddies)= endorsing it. anyway i thought the trailer was pretty cool. blackguy32 posted:But sanitizing is much more accurate. true. they basically think if they can burn anyone or anything with even the slightest chance of infection, it will save the city. Phi230 posted:Tom Clancy books went off the deep end the moment the cold war ended. He only really wrote like 2-3 good books during post cold war and they're all hawkish caricatures of the world as it is. this. his 4 or so original ones are pretty good. aka the ones that were made into movies with harrison ford) the rest is meh or hosed up. the games tend to be not out right political. though SP convictions has you executing some right wing clown on the presidents desk.

Revol posted:Did everyone see this article? Don't think it was posted yet. loving killscreen is the worst. they make polygon look legit. they always find something "deeply problematic". I can see some of her points but then is just desolves into bullshit when she gets mad that the game doesn't have some DEEP POLITICAL AGENDA. also quoting a dude from the comments. quote:the virus in the game obviously forced the city/government to quarantine a big area of the city, stores are not open, NYPD, NYFD and hospitals are gone in a wide area for many days/weeks. There is no way to compare a localised disaster like 9/11 happening in a still fully functional society to Manhattan full of bodies and survivors of a uncurable virus attack left behind on their own and at anyones mercy. Asking first responders from 9/11 would be very useless, their situation was nowhere near the one portrayed in the game. aka the author is clickbait dipshit Dapper_Swindler fucked around with this message at 03:37 on Feb 10, 2016 |

Tatum Girlparts posted:Man I'll defend places like Polygon if I think there's a valid point buried in wankery, but this is just pure clickbait. (Popular Game) 9/11 BUZZWORDS PROBLEMATIC READ MORE!!!! agreed. polygon does do good articles sometimes (iran gaming scene, a few others) sad thing is i am sure this wont be the last article talking about something "problamatic for clicks" about the division. seems like the public demo/beta will have new story mission, and new side missions, plus more unlocks and patched stuff.

Plan Z posted:Chaos Theory holds up pretty well if you go into thinking it's just a really well-refined final version of the first two games. Blacklist is very good, but it's kind of a large departure in terms of story. The makers were obviously really into Mass Effect, as you have a base in a C-130 that's basically The Normandy, and Fisher even looks and sounds like Shepard (Michael Ironside doesn't voice him this. there were a few to many insta fail sections that sucked rear end. and the game drags some in the middle and the side quests are pointless. but its pretty fun. I actualy liked Carlo Rota in that game because he hams it up a bunch.

SlayVus posted:Compare it to any other shooter RPG and it's still different. Borderlands, Fallout, Hellgate London, Alpha Protocol, Star Trek Online, Warframe. Weapon handling alone in Division is just plain bad. seriously. borderlands has some of the worst shooting of any shooter. all the guns are basically peashooters that seem to have no visible effect on enemies.

Zaphod42 posted:The Asian guy looks fairly realistic, but everybody else is super uncanny valley. Kinda weird yeah. true. i think its short for something longer, which i am pretty sure they say at some point. Hopper posted:Well, we don't play random civilians turned heroes, but an actual military unit. Hence in the tradition of espionage/ basicaly it takes the old conspiracy/probaly fact that a ton of americans in country are sleeper agents, waiting to be activated in case of a national "poo poo got loving real" emergency. the game is based off of the operation dark winter war games report that was declasified a few years ago. dark winter was a real thing. ubisoft made a slick info video about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcuoD0vxOIY

military fiction, referring to the unit as "the division" makes total sense. To the casual listener it will give nothing away about the nature of this unit except for the fact that it is

Vadoc posted:Nicky is never coming back. i doubt any of them, (except maybe jordi) are coming back for 2. ubisoft heard loud and clear how much most people hated aidan, so my guess is new protag.

limited posted:Sorry to the goons I was playing with, I had to drop out because I had a awesome bug. ALL the voice audio was missing from that last mission we did. So it started playing sequentially as soon as I zoned into the HQ and it was driving me loving crazy overlaid with all the NPC chatter. yeah, the subway, is great, but that the mass grave of coffins of the fire fighters with the american flags wrapped around them so far i really like it, more so then i thought i would. cant wait till my copy ships Dapper_Swindler fucked around with this message at 02:24 on Feb 20, 2016 |

I am not sure. Ubisoft is pretty good at hiding stuff before the game comes out. they have done it a few times with the AC games (1, 3 and syndicate) my guess is they have the "main" storyline under raps and have only show us the side content, like 3 branchs missions and the small side stuff.

DreamShipWrecked posted:They might hide some minor things like details of maps or some new enemy types but don't think for a second that they would withhold any cool big detail that would help boost preorders sales gameplay wise i agree. i just mean they probably have another baddie faction hidden.
