Tom Clancy's "The Division"

Well it's Ubisoft. I'll believe it when I see it lol

 

Lol.
However, such things are usually what causes these server overload problems. Too much impatient people. I rather wait than refresh every 0,0000005 seconds.

 

Got my email awhile ago.

28.5GB download.

At least uPlay's download server is working well... 15MB/sec

Shut off the VPN and its now at 19MB/sec which is my connection max.

 

Yup, received the email as well. Let the download commence!
Looks like I'll have to update my drivers too .

 

I'm glad they're starting to have Beta's in games these days. They really need it considering how much content they have.

 

Okay sucks seeing it there and not being able to do anything with it. LOL

 

Delete and download it again .

Yeah, betas are nice. It was the reason I bought R6 Siege. Played the beta, liked it, bought it.

 

Looks like the time to kill is pretty much same regardless of level. So probably you could oneshot a low level mob. Besides, if your oppoents were one-shottable then you would be too. That kinda sucks in a game where it is possible to kill someone and take their gear.

There is headshots at least what I've seen in the videos.

Unfortunately all the footage I've seen has been from consoles so their aim is all over the place and still landing shots thanks to the game playing for them. Not that convincing.

I got the beta key. Someone said it should be playable 14:00 local time, well before I'm home from work anyways.

 

They could have done damage like they did in Siege or like the one GTA V has. I think it's pretty good. Also you don't really die in this game, at least at first. Your squad mates have some time to revive you and only after that you die.
Anyway, I'll find out tomorrow how it plays.

 

When opponent is in the reviveable state, just shoot some more or melee -> dead like the NPC's. Loot the corpse for that cool gun/gear he had, then leave before opponents return from the spawn point nearby.

 

Nice: "There are no promotions available for your country at this time. Please check again soon!"

I hate these first come first serve things. They should have you provide your email and then choose randomly after a few days.

 

So, played a bit. Third person shooter mechanics feel really tight, love them. Predict a huge grind and microtransaction fest. Also, I need a team and a mic (wonder if I can use my smartphone for that). Feel free to add me (killkenny1 on Uplay). Sponge like enemies feel good, as long as you stay within your level territory.
Use current drivers, runs well (default settings, except for AF, which I set to 16). Got one graphics glitch though. Otherwise everything runs well.

 

Played a bit more. Yeah, pretty nice. Found Mosin-Nagant, come at me, bro!
Might even grab it once it comes out.

 

Discord is a VOIP app that works with phones and computers both.

So far I've found M249b, bunch of AK's, couple M1A snipers, shotguns and SMG's.
So far M249b sucks, not accurate enough, M4 rocks. The starter gun M4 is still competitive due high rate of fire compared to the harder hitting AK's.

After some tweaks to the default keys this plays quite smoothly. The most important thing (to me) - the feel of the controls, it works.

I haven't yet ventured into the Dark Zone, I'm waiting for my coworkers to catch up with me

 

Got a mail today regarding beta key. Thought I got in but it was a mail saying I wont get in, at least not on the first day.

 

I use WO Mic. A bit of lag, but it gets the job done.
So you guys (Najsman, KLF) are from Scandinavia, I'm from around same time zone. If you want you can add me if you want to play together . I have Mosin-Nagant .

 

getting crappy fps, temps in the 60s for really low clocks....not sure if it's the GPU or the game being crap!

 

Well I maxed out the settings on my machine and it wasn't dipping below 60FPS until my system hard locked (unstable CPU overclock).



I stopped the game and restarted it so that I could apply Ultra settings, hence the break there.

It DOES pound the CPU though... 85C+... so I'm not really all that miffed that my overclock was unstable.

Can you make a GPU-Z log and post it?

 

I totally spaced on responding to the first invite to sign up for the BETA, and saw a posting here, and barely made it in time to sign up before the BETA started.

This is what it looks like when you don't get in... they are still holding out hope

"Tom Clancy's The Division Beta – Your registration to the waiting list

Dear ******

We are seeing an unprecedented level of interest in The Division beta and we want to thank you for your enthusiasm and passion.

As of now it is unlikely that the players who are currently on the waitlist will gain access to the beta today.

Our goal is to grant access to all players interested in playing The Division and we still hope to do so.

Please check back this week-end for an update on the status of the waitlist.

We thank you again for your excitement and understanding.

The Division team"

 

LOL, same here... couldn't sign up until late this evening.

 

That isn't anything big. They're now claiming that you aren't even guaranteed to get in even if you pre-ordered now. Even though one of the benefits of pre-ordering was "guaranteed access to the beta".

And food for thought for some prospective users for the game. Take the name "beta" with copious amounts of salt. This game is slated for release March 8th. It's releasing on physical discs for consoles too. This means the game is *FINISHED*. The most you'll get is a day 0 patch for some more glaring issues, but that's about it. This is no "beta" in the sense of "the game may improve or change based on what happened during this period". It might not be the same code as in the final game, but rather one of the release candidates, and so may legally count as a "beta", but don't expect leaps in optimization or performance, or mechanics being fixed if you find any of them buggy, etc. *IF* it happens, it'll be nothing short of a miracle, I can guarantee that much. It's as much a "beta" as BF3 and BF4 and Titanfall's "betas" were (I.E. just a pre-release demo to turn the gears of the hype train faster). The most we might get out of this is them prepping their servers better for launch day.

Note, I'm not saying that the game does or doesn't run well, or is or isn't buggy, etc. I'm just saying that whatever its current state of being is, expect more of the same on launch.

 

Anyone knows if stuff you acquired in beta would carry on to full game if you bought it later? I have this OP rifle, want it to be there in case I decide to buy this game .
They didn't let you carry over Siege progress from beta, but wonder if they would let you do this here.

 

"Servers are currently on maintenance"
Nice beta so far .

 

Better off purchasing it for PC, so that you at least get some patches (updates), like with The Witcher 3. It improved a lot.

 

Aaaaand i'm in the waiting list
Can't get in.

 

1080p, everything on ultra preset, 45-50fps outside.
Automatic not that far behind visually, giving me from 65fps up to 100+.
This is on my desktop pc. I don't think I would own a laptop capable to run this anytime soon.

 

At least it have SLI profile for those of us on SLI.

 

This game is awesome. I am really surprised how much I like it actually. I was hyped when I saw the first trailer, but have been disappointed with recent videos. I've been playing since the Beta released a couple days ago and have been addicted to it. Like Kenny I wish this gear would carry over. Getting together with a group of friends and running the dark zone is so much fun. I like the ability to choose between being a rogue or being the good guys to help people extract loot. The world is fairly large, even though you're only allowed to play in maybe 15% or less in the beta. The full game should feel very very large in comparison.

Running Max settings on everything and 1080p at over 60FPS most times on my desktop. I think the game is well optimized and looks and runs great. Wish I could push the visuals a bit more though. Maybe I'll mess around with some settings in Nvidia control panel later.

 

i have no idea why the game runs like complete crap for me. it doesn't respect the in-game settings - i tried to set the in-game fps lock and the settings don't stick.

 

Did you try playing it without OC?
What drivers you have?

 

using 361.75. just cleaned my laptop fans and heatsink fins

 

Well this was fun. Prolly have to buy it now .

 

This game doesn't like my OC'ed CPU. Its been crashing AW18 constantly and I have to go to the bios to set to default.

 

Is your overclocked desktop CPU crashing because my 5820k isn't crashing.

 

Unfortunately it won't .

 

Well, I said it was my AW18. I had no chance to try on my desktop yet.

 

You singing YMCA?

 

I knew there was something missing!

 

i cleaned the fans and heatsink fins and also reinstalled the 361.75 drivers with J95's modded INFs. will see if the division will play nice.

EDIT: seems to be working fine now. not sure if it's the fan cleaning or J95's INFs, or even i missed some settings in the game but it works now. unfortunately it's another game that can't do 60fps so 30fps will do since it's a 3rd person game.

 

Hurry men, extract all your crap!

 

And not one of them went rogue? Amazing.

 

i accidentally went rogue...so i just let the other person kill me and be done with it.

Lets see if that works. 24hr extension to the beta.
Didn't work, so only link for now.

 

what's the end date for US east coast?

 

It's said in the linked announcement...

 

Yeah, it was. Probably because only low level peeps were there.
Still, can't say I wasn't on the edge when so many people came. Lol, I automatically took cover just in case .

It's no good without any new content. I already played "Medical" mission, like, twenty times and completed other stuff on map as well.
Maybe it's time to create a new char.

 

Just go back and play it on hard difficulty with a few friends. Still having fun collecting loot and deciding to go rogue a few times.

 

Dude, I already did.
I really need some friends. Going around alone in DZ is no fun.

 

Welp, found some three random dudes in the Dark Zone, had fun going rogue .

 

I wasn't sure what you meant by "going rogue". Then I shot some guys I thought were enemies, and I went rogue. Well now I know!
