    Some of the best pve, incredible story with a incredible finale, great open world, almost every mission is a legendary, 4 incursions, unique survival mode, Global Events still occur, and has iconic pvp.

    I recently redownloaded the division and loaded in my old character and just walked around and I was just breathless by how amazing the game looks today and as I walked around I had a flood of old memories with friends and how long ago it really was. This game will always have a special place in my memories.

    I'm a pretty old gamer. 51 to be exact. And this is the last game I got into and I loved it. I was lucky to team up with another gamer who was only there to truly help me get started and he really made it an amazing experience for me. God bless those people. But afterwards I was always weary of teaming up again once I was well on my way on my own. It's unfortunate I know. But it was always something I just didn't want to get into for some reason.
    I never once tried the DZ. I just kept to PVE and grinding for gear and progression through the story which I thought was great!
    I hope to get back into it. And this video is encouraging. Thanks.

      That sounds like a lot of fun TBH. I'm not sure I could keep up though. I used to be pretty good at it. Made to Tier 5, or 1, can't remember what one was the highest but regardless. I spent many hours grinding for exotics and advancing slowly but surely in PVE. But I never actually finished the story mode. And I'm too chicken to ever go into the DZ. Hahaha. Maybe with a little backup?
      Regardless, I should be getting back into PS+ in March, and start playing online again.
      I must say, thanks for the invite! Unless it's a troll. But I can't imagine what the point of a troll would be come to think of it. Lmfao.

    I would love a survival mode in div2. It doesn't even have to be set in the snow,i think a really strong thunderstorm with immense rain and dark weather would also work really well. And since you can turn off your entire HUD including health bars and dmg numbers....it could be a perfect mode.

    Division 2 may be the better game in terms of gameplay mechanics and build variety but it just cant beat the original in terms of atmosphere. The mid winter New york is just so much more immersive and cinematic compared to dc.

    Been playing Division 1 off and on since its release. When I first started, it was so easy to group up and meet people. I met a lot of streamers and UA-camrs (mostly small time). I made a lot of online friends just by going around the DZ and just talking to people. Surviving manhunts are some of the best experiences I’ve had with this game. Whether it was on a rooftop in dz 5 or in the subway tunnels in dz 6, it was always a blast. There are still division friends that I still talk to and play with (on other games) to this day. Unfortunately, all of them have moved on but I still talk to them through discord and psn. There is no other game that has had this kind of impact and I seriously doubt that there will be another game like it.
    Is the game worth playing now? It depends on what you like. If you are into PvP looter shooters then it’s super fun. If there weren’t so many modded lag-switching idiots, I’d probably still be playing the game right now. Thanks for the video. 🍻

    • @Mixu.
      @Mixu. 7 місяців тому +16

      I think a part of it is the choice of location and season. The winter lighting, harsh, simple buildings and low vegetation give lots of technical advantages to 1. 2 has trees, bushes, grass and such everywhere, and it's often very sunny. I haven't tested it on absolute highest settings, but on mostly high the light always feels a little bit off. At least to me.
      Looking at textures and animations I actually find 2 better, but both are insanely good visually all around imo.

  • @thomasguider8386
    @thomasguider8386 7 місяців тому +9

    I jumped into this after initially slightly playing the division 2. That being said I honestly liked it more then part 2 because of how raw and gritty it was like true New York but you are also helping people more. I missed that in part two because it’s just at check points or control points you are really helping like you would just help random people on the streets of New York and you would always get random gear for it. There was also a few random street bosses they weren’t involved in the main missions but they were a challenge. Honestly I’m still playing division 1 because I never beat it I’m still grinding through it but it’s fun to have a constant challenge. I also actually like being kept on my toes too which is rare for a lot of newer games the enemies will wait for you if they are computer driven this seems to some degree AI type intuitive. This is also an RPG for people that haven’t played it all your stats matter including your guns and armor it’s also a lot of strategy because different bosses and leveled have some unique tricks to them some of which I’m still learning I’ve been playing for six months got halfway though before I decided to buy the full version I restarted twice since then still not made it to completion but am learning new things each time. Also no super easy mode it is normal or hard and normal is difficult even for familiar shooter fans.

    In fact, two weeks ago I managed to complete my very first solo PVE Survival run (sorry again XD).

    I searched for this yesterday, then decided to buy Div 1 for pc anyway, after getting platinum on it on ps4 years ago lol. Technically good timing, but strange that many people seem to be thinking about it recently.
    For me Div 1 is just a comfort game. The map feels so good to just roam in and explore, but there's still tons to do otherwise if I wish.
    Div 2 is technically a better game in my opinion, and I think they generally improved on everything from Div 1, but I'll always prefer the NY in 1, I think. And 1 still is a great game, just to be clear.

Where do you get the components to craft the mask filter? I looted many things but cannot craft it or those components are just inside the DZ?

      The filter materials needed are just your standard Fabric/Electronics etc. (I forget which specific ones it asks for). You can find them in material crates, by killing enemies, or deconstructing items. You won't be able to enter the DZ without a filter

    A parte onde Você entra na DZ e temos um corpo pendurado, me fez pensar o quão desafiador seria minha jornada.
    Demorei horas pra poder chegar até a DZ.
    E olha que sou um jogador experiente com a Franquia TD...Já fiz de tudo em TD2, mecânicas de Raid ...Incursão etc.
    Mas isso é algo totalmente diferente, o fato de ter que se preocupar em ficar Aquecido ,sem Fome ou Sede traz uma dificuldade maior pois ainda corremos contra o Tempo.

    Fond memories from the beginning of the first month. I was just chilling with a whole lobby in dz01 or 02 while we listened to a dev explain the inner workings of early end game builds and gear optimizations. After which he took us around every landmark in the dz so we could grind out gear for around an hour. Some of my best friends were people from that group. We split off from the rest after that hour of farming and completed our first challenging mission together. crafting a extended mag for my navy mp5n which back then seriously upped the fire rate per added bullet. Literally turning that smg into a A10 warthog and scaring the crap outta anyone near enough to hear it including myself. I pooped a little when I first fired it lol

    My dad pre ordered a physical copy of this game's "gold edition" on the xbox one, probably, a week before it released, it showed up in the mail a few hours before it released digitally. We got right to playing it, whole family, taking turns. we were some of the earliest players of this game. Within 10 minutes the whole lobby of about 15 people were all facing off against 1 level 1000, and 1 level 1500, who were teamed and partied together, a bit of an unspoken truce between the rest of us. I doubt we even did a single bit of damage because we were all new to the game and they basically had god mode. Looking at promotional material for this game, and watching this video has "brought back" some memories of playing this game in 2016, probably to about 2018. I didn't play often but I did play it. I remember watching my older brother play survival a lot while waiting for a turn so I could play COD zombies. I looked up if this game was worth playing in 2024 because there is an 85% sale on the base game on steam, making it $4.49, I have $5 on my steam account and was looking for something I could buy just because I could. I think ill buy the base game, no dlcs, and play occasionally and during the summer sale in a few months, ill buy survival if the servers are still up and they haven't pulled the plug on it yet, like they did the crew.

    Division 1 is such a compelling game. From everything occurring in NY and it's atmosphere creation. It's very much worth buying currently (now it's cheaper with a bundle with division 2, DLC, etc.) also, it's even better playing on updated gen consoles for smoother FPS (Xbox Series, PS5.) Just enjoy the story mode linking towards Division 2. 😎✨✨✨

    Underground is actually my favorite dlc. I know many people did not like the grindy aspect of it but the environments down there were amazing to run through, like fighting through a massive gold vault or the end of the world rave. And when they added the threat of 4 man hunter squads to match your own in claustrophobic rooms and hallways, it was a thrilling experience for me.

    I genuinely appreciate some of these tips. The neutral lighting then, I will definitely try.
    However, as a newcomer, I found my experience with Survival was hampered quite a bit by the experienced players. By the time I got into any game, nearly all containers were already looted by try-hard min-maxers who already had the map memorized and the optimal route planned out. It was a little heartbreaking.

    Clicked on this video as I miss the survival mode and as soon as you said "buy the dlc" I knew where you were going with this! Survival was one of my favourite game modes of any game. I always preferred the snow setting of Div1 over Div2 but Survival just takes that and actually makes the cold and the city feel dangerous! The game modes in Div2 just don't keep me interested like this did. Played on console so its hard to go back to the that these days but if I see the game on sale on pc I may pick it up again.*

    I recently played TD1 for the first time. Finished the “story” (which is great even if it’s not really a story mode) and I completely fell in love with it. The game is a masterpiece. Accurate in every details. I personally love NYC atmosphere and the way they captured it in a pandemic reality is just beautiful. I felt a hit every time I walked outside in the open world. Missions are hard and fun. Downloaded the dlcs but still didn’t play em. Went straight to TD2 and playing on PS5 I have to admit that the gameplay here is well improved even if in TD1 is amazing already. Struggling with frame rate in the first one since PlayStation didn’t update it like the second one. NYC atmosphere was just magic tho.

It feels and plays differently for sure but stacking hours of play time I love the accuracy of the map it's freaking scary how great the map feels like I knew where to go as soon as I started playing.

    I remember playing this game in 2016, at first I wasn't very happy with it but the more I played it the more I got addicted to the game... and when I entered the PvP zone it was a very hard relationship with the game, because one day you could loot a lot of good things and u felt like the absolute boss of the area and the next day u could loose everything a FEW times!! 😅
    So, it was a love-hate relationship hahahaha
    I used to hate shotguns, bastards killed me with just a few close shots. Oh, and I loved a bug that people used to explode where you could join in a big hard mission with around 100 or 150 players, so it was pure madness, funny and awesome 😂😂😂😂
