The moment I stepped into the Dark Zone a super friendly scottish guy invited me to his group and spent the entire time talking in his mic about how excited he was to go find some loot.
Amazing.
[QUOTE=simkas;49631134]Wow the pre-load unpacking is apparently going to take like an hour on steam. That's kinda shitty.[/QUOTE]
yeah i dont preload games on steam for this reason, I can literally download faster (actually, maybe unpacking will be quicker now that I got an SSD?)
How are the PC servers handling Beta?
Is there a repeat of the R6 Beta or is it running well?

Judging from the fact i got a connection error halfway through the intro cinematic and had to watch the whole thing over again, I'll take it they're having problems.
Just tried it on PC. Something feels really off with it for me feels like a low budget title.
Shame as was kinda hoping it would be worth a buy and I've not even been hyped at all but I don't know it just felt bad but cant really put finger on it
ran the game with my laptop with the following specs
i5 4210u
gt 840m 2gb
4 gigs of ram
an 5400rpm hdd
it ran well (30fps) but i have severe stutter problems, probably because the hdd but making the game's priority to high helps reduce my stutter problem
the object detail setting is actually object view distance so you'd probably want that settings to be atleast 50%
the servers ran well for me imo, i got error halfway the intro cinematic but when playing its very smooth
although voice chat seemed stuttery at time but i think its more of a client side problem than server problem since the guy that have stuttery voice chat is playing on a laptop at 12 fps
Soooo, anyone else not able to fire their guns? So far I've had to go through every fight just meleeing people.

Also can't use med kits. Or switch weapons reliably.

Restart the game.
Other than some weird ass streaming issues which seem to have been fixed mostly, my biggest gripe so far has been lag, I think. Sometimes the AI enemies just kinda shoot at me without me ever seeing them, then suddenly I'm surrounded by 3 melee fuckers beating me up and I just die. This has happened twice so far and I can't say I was overly happy about either case. No such problems at the Dark Zone though, so that's really nice.
Honestly, after this I'm probably going to go for the Division after seeing how the launch goes, but I am kinda worried about the content-side, since even though I've had fun with the content there, there are really no indications that there'll be enough. Sure enough the map size is pretty goddamn big but that's not really saying all that much.

I'm pretty sure raids got confirmed when a dev answered a question about loot sharing on a stream; so that's cool

i dont wanna be at work i wanna be playing
I've had it happen a few times where some dummy starts spraying at me out of the blue, I react, and I'm the one getting disavowed.
Also I really wish there were a way to equip your darkzone kit that didn't involve running back to home base and then running all the way back because you can't fast travel to dark zones
So, for those that are in the beta, how's the game? Is t actually good? Or is it a mess like Watchdogs?

enjoy
I'm pretty sure its faster to fast travel to the base of operation from within to leave the building than it is to walk out of it. Why am I not allowed to run through that small entryway area, again?
So far I've had some fun with the beta with my buddy. Can't say how the Dark Zone is as I still haven't visited it.
Not really a fan of PvP so I'm not sure what to expect.
The worries about bullet-spongey enemies seem to have been untrue. Regular enemies go down pretty fast and even named enemies will die quite fast if you headshot them.

Probably loading screens/streaming. It is impressive how you can walk seamlessly into a busy (in the future, probably thriving) base of operations and enter into a cutscene in seconds, or walk back outside
Not to mention all the enterable, multi story buildings and rooftops etc. You can run into a store, loot some electronics and then out the back door and you've cut down your travel time
Does anyone know what button on PC switches which side the camera is on when aiming? And how do you zoom further in with a scope? I found a rifle with a 12x scope but when looking through the scope on that, it barely seems to zoom in.

Use the SHIFT to change side, but you can do that only while aiming afaik. Also to use the scope press TAB while aiming.

I think his point is that it doesn't really zoom in much with scopes, despite being high powered scopes.

Yeah, it's supposed to be a 12x scope yet it barely zooms any more than an ACOG does.
well now all of a sudden the game starts minimized and then crashes
and when it does start normally it freezes at the epilepsy warning and i have to ctrl-alt-del to close it
Yeah that performance problem I had a while ago got fixed with a pc restart. Odd, but I'm just glad it runs well now.
Also, the game is pretty great. Much better with friends though. For fun and if you actually want to beat people in the dark zone. Although I have to admit, the feeling of teaming up with absolute strangers to kill some rouge agents is very satisfying, especially with the fact that they're marked and you're not. It's so intense when you see some of them struggling with bots and some of them get downed, and because they don't know you're there, you can swoop in, kill them, take their stuff and haul ass.
Well, Played some Division. It's pretty good. The Dark Zone is a rush if you have loot you want to keep.
Pulse with the mod that prevents you from showing up on pulse + Suppressors is the way to go.
My only real gripe is the UI has a bit too much clicking and backing. You should be able to click on a mod slot, then see the list of mods, and click the mod you want, rather than double click into a separate menu per mod slot, then hit escape to back out of all the menu's
got white camo for 1 of my guns from giving a medkit to a civ; aw yeah

Have had zero connection issues with Ubi's servers. Disconnected a few times but that was my ISP rebooting my modem several times like they do throughout the day all day every day
I'm officially getting the game for $38 while I can and that's that
Game runs great on my R9 380, FX8350, 16GB of RAM. Not a hitch in sight, and that's with my object view distance bumped up to 80% and supersampling turned on. And at times it looks REALLY good
Is there any indication that your voice is transmitting?

a little icon in the bottom right I think
Does anyone know if you can even get lock picks in the beta?
[QUOTE=simkas;49631960]Does anyone know if you can even get lock picks in the beta?[/QUOTE]
You can, dont know from where, but i had one in my inventory
[QUOTE=simkas;49631960]Does anyone know if you can even get lock picks in the beta?[/QUOTE]
I've found some, don't know from where though. I think dead enemies
also half the time my left/right clicks don't work in the game and I have to restart
