I'm going to pre-order within the next week or so as we get closer to the beta. I'm off that entire weekend and since the PS4 version starts Friday, it works perfectly for me. Even if I end up not liking the final release, for $38 at Best Buy, I can't complain.

This was the best video I've seen so far. This is the game I thought Metal Gear Online would've been. Co-op missions and very MMO RPG elements to this game. I don't even care about the PVP part of the game. Open world, various missions with friends is worth the money IMO.

Re: The Division (Xbone/PS4)

My only worry with games like these are the longevity that they have after you get to the end game. Is there going to be enough content here to keep my interest? Or am I going to be doing the same types of quests over and over again?

Also a question for anyone who lives in the New York area. Supposedly the area in the game is a 1:1 recreation. Anybody know how long it takes to walk from one side to the other? I was also reading that the area used in the trailers isn't the area we'll be playing in the final game. I'm assuming they'll be using it as part of their DLC pass.

I am too, but they said DLC would be coming out so I feel like they'll have enough there.

The map shows just the area, but I'm sure more than just they're showing now will be available after release.

Definitely Destiny like in that you arent getting one shot kills and you have to pretty much empty clips on enemies which is weird considering the setting and everything. You have to blast regular thugs more than a storm trooper from star wars.

Have about 25 bucks on a gamestop card, ill probably put it on this

Yeah that's the one negative I came away with after watching that last video I posted. Would be nice of head kills were quicker.

I was watching one of the youtube guys who has a partnership with ubisoft play and he was talking about it.

They still don't want the public to know any story elements either, which is odd.

Anyway, he kinda made it well enough to buy to me, but all of the shooting he had to do for a kill.

Mentioned customizing your weapons are there. Can't wait to play this co op

That's my concer too, with is very odd considering like you said 23. Putting that many rounds into an enemy seems very strange. Maybe they'll make some adjustments after the open beta drops and more and more people voice their displeasure

Hope so. One thing he said also is that you can mod like a sticky bomb. Throw it on the guy and let it explode or if you mod one to also let out fire, it will lower the enemy health....not kill him

That kinda stuff is cool to have a weird at the same time because its 2 sides riddling eachother with bullets but nobody going down. Headshots do damage where usually its a 1 or 2 shot kill

I know it's a video game, but at what point does fun over rule realism? Head shots should be one shot and other kills should be pretty realistic IMO.

Watched a dark zone mission adn I saw a guy on the ground halfway out of energy and he still had to empty another clip on the guy to get his points down before he could kill the guy.

They have a number counter that keeps jumping with each hit (points maybe?)... its definitely an odd mix. It's going to be weird hitting an enemy with a grenade and he just stands there

That's concerning. What video is that? The Beta is really going to get hammered if it continues to be an issue like that. Hopefully they can adjust it if more people have issues with that aspect.

Re: The Division (Xbone/PS4)

Everyone needs to realize that The Division is very heavy on RPG elements and one of those elements is hit points so while head shots should take down an enemy with one bullet, that's not what the game is. I look at it as a third person team based cover shooter with a very heavy focus on RPG elements.

I didn't play the Alpha but im looking forward to playing the Beta on PS4 in two weeks and it actually works out perfectly as im off that Friday and Saturday so I'll be able to play the entire three day weekend. Looking forward to playing the game. Watching videos, I do have some stuff that I don't like and whatnot but no game is perfect. Every game should be played for what it is, not for what you want it to be.

Kill time will not decrease, its just the style of game that it is. Especially at lower levels. I think most of you guys are mistaking the type of game it is supposed to be, its not just a 3rd person shooter. Its a 3rd person shooter MMO/RPG. That means that everything is going to be based off your gear and level. You start out as a level 1 and find a level 10 guy, you wont kill him. You will probably run out of ammo before you even hurt them half way.

This keeps someone at level one going through the whole game skipping stuff. Makes you "build" your character and always want to find that better loot.

You got skills you can use and most encounters, tactical position is the difference between life and death. Also there are head shot multipliers, meaning that you do more damage hitting people in the head than the armored parts. Also noticed shooting legs can make enemies fall down and slow down in the alpha.

If your looking for a open world 3rd person shooter that is one hit kill headshots and quick kill times then your best bet will be waiting on Ghost Recon Wild Lands.
