    Wildlands will be the opposite so you should be good bud.
    Silly question, but as I'm not all that familiar with RPG's - and I'm asking this honestly, not trying to be a jerk - why is it rare or uncommon to have a realistic RPG in terms of combat and damage?

    I was one of those who was disappointed with The Division. My son got it for Christmas and I tried playing it, but turned it off after I was killed by a baseball bat after I head-shot my assailant but he didn't die instantly.

    I'm really hoping GR:Wildlands is more realistic in terms of damage and combat.

      In general, Tom Clancy games strive for a more realistic approach. Rainbow Six Siege is a great example of this. The Division is definitely not the norm -- don't expect bullet sponges in Ghost Recon if the past history of the game is any indicator.

        Don't worry about GRW as it's definitely more realistic even though im disappointed that it doesn't have an actual cover system which puzzles me since it's meant to be a stealth tactical shooter.

        As for The Division, answer is simple. Having one head shot kills wouldn't make it an RPG. Every RPG has always had HP or a health bar that decreases with every connected attack. That's what the Division is. The health bar is basically the enemy's amount of HP and when you shoot them, you'll notice numbers being shown when your bullets are connecting which indicates the damage amount. Same as an RPG but instead of swords and magic, The Division uses guns, grenades, etc.

        Don't feel bad about the baseball bat guy as I died on him a bunch of times too. I always thought that he was out of place in the game full of guns but then realized that, that's the intelligence behind it. It throws you off and makes you move instead of just staying behind cover all the time. Annoying as hell but once you see and know they're coming, they're easy to deal with it.

            Anyone know details of Season Pass? Ive been burnt before when getting the version that includes SP.
            The Gold edition includes the season pass which is supposed to consist of two major expansions but what the details are haven't been announced yet. Gold edition also includes all the content that's included in the Deluxe edition.

              So, has anyone received the beta invite yet? I'm standing by for this and a beta invite for a game called "For Honor". Haven't seen anything yet.

                I know we'll never get back to the 360 GRAW glory days, but what system are folks picking this up on? I'd prefer PS4 but would be willing to change for the "old gang". Don't post much so honestly have no clue what systems folks have.

                  Only 'glory days' for me with GR was the original game (from Red Storm Entertainment) and expansions. Even R6 had 2 good games after the original (Rogue Spear & Raven Shield) before they started really dumbing it down.

                        I'm getting it on PS4, I think the majority on OS gets games on PS4. It usually seems that way reading most big game, non console exclusive threads.

                            I'm sort of starting to get into wanting this game a little.

                            I was really pumped for The Division, and was completely let down on it - although I can't really be too upset because I had gotten about 3 months of continuous play out of it which is really good for me.

                            I'm worried that buying this game will turn out to not be what is expected and there will be a lot of let downs. The problem with that is even the gameplay trailers look fantastic making it a really tough call.

                                Speaking for myself, I cant wait for this to come out! Under 2 months now!

                                For some reason I cant get connected to play The Division anymore so Im trading in towards Wildlands.
