The Division “could only be achieved on next-gen hardware” says director. Plot “based on realism”

OPM: It’s fair to say the apocalypse is a well-furrowed path in videogame narrative. And you, the tooled-up survivalist, might be starting to feel the blisters forming inside those size 12s after such an exhaustive trek down that road. But where games have previously placed you post-downfall, piecing together the disaster that did for mankind after the fact, Ubisoft Massive’s MMO-like shooter The Division place during civilisation’s meltdown.

Can't wait for my PC version.

You and me both! Between this, TitanFall, BF4, and the games I have backlogged in my Steam account my new rig is going to be getting a workout!

GamerXD3870d ago

Damn that PS4 demo is looking so realistic.

Bolts3870d ago

This game looks cool but something tells me it'll be nothing more than an urban version of Borderlands without the cell shading. The demo is hiding a lot of potential flaws in this game and once the flaws are peeled back the game could get boring really fast.

I think this game will really kick of next generation. Many games talk about merging SP and MP but I have a feeling this is going to be the game to take advantage of the new consoles and bring a Day-Z in a city like experience, with singeplayer elements scattered everywhere and other players just being part of the world.

And it looks fucking gorgeous.

Fishy Fingers3870d ago

You can get all that from one gameplay demo of a game still in development? Impressive.

BX813870d ago

@bolts, your opinion is just like your choice in a football team.... It stinks!

Imonaboat13870d ago

So it cant be achieved on wii u?

Shadowsteal3870d ago (Edited 3870d ago )

Of course not, Wii U isn't next-gen hardware sadly.

I am in absolute agreement with the OP 👌

I hate when I see single player games and see people begging for multi-player. Jeez guys it don't need to be on every game. Latest one I seen was atomic heart.

Multiplayer or even co-op

If it was always a single player game then that's how it is

Inverno375d ago

It's a trend that never really went away. For me multiplayer in a primarily SP focused game was an excuse for DLC. Then there's the mentality gamers had that adding multiplayer makes a game worth the price, otherwise it should be half price for half a game. A way of thinking devs reassured when they started adding multiplayer to their sequels. We see the same with multiplayer focused games getting SP in their sequels.

Flawlessmic375d ago

Tbh multilayer now is a way to add live service and mtx elements, very rarely does it come of well.

What single players game used to be in a lot of cases now require 3 other people for keeping to really enjoy it and I hate having to rely on others to get the maximum from a game.

Sp should be sp, if devs want to add a separate multi mode then that's fine with me, the legends addition to ghost of tshushima was fricking sick but totally separate to the main game. Sick of co op too.

Hofstaderman375d ago

I remember when certain single player games had them as included optional modes that was played on the couch. Had brilliant times with Syphon Filter and Golden Eye. Me and my bro used to used to fight over who would play as Gabe even though it was technically just a skin. Good times.

Dagexon375d ago

I didn't notice your comment before I added mine.
But good times indeed
