Tom Clancy's: The Division 1.8 Update Raises The Maximum Gear Score With New Gear Optimization

The new maximum gear score was revealed as part of the upcoming Gear Optimization system. The fifth World Tier will remain the highest in The Division, but players can take their pieces of 256 equipment and improve their gear score through Gear Optimization. Instead of having to start over with new items in a new World Tier, players will collect Division Tech to upgrade their best gear to higher levels.

At the new Optimization Station, players can take pieces of 256 gear and increase each individual statistic with Division Tech. As an item reaches the maximum value for each statistic, the item’s gear score increases. After an item is perfectly rolled its new gear score will be 286, as noted on the game’s website. When players of The Division first log in after the 1.8 patch releases, players with a gear score of 256 will, at least, retain that level. If their gear is naturally well rolled, their gear score might be higher.

This is too late this game is a ghostown, this game had alot of potientials and promising future but of course its Ubisoft.

RedDeadLB2417d ago

Me and my friends bought it a couple days ago and there are still plenty of people playing. It's also the most fun I had gaming in the last couple of months.

jc122416d ago

Agreed. Played this game 3 months ago and I loved it.

XisThatKid2416d ago

This is just a dumb comment made for the likes or the hates based on the amount of relevant media coverage this game gets.
"This game isn't on the front fee of N4G day, this game must be a ghost town. I dunno I never played it but I'm sure some sheep will agree with me, I'm so cool"
that's how imagined it. I could be wrong...

Olr0wdy2416d ago

Glad to hear you like the game. I playing since beta testing. Running three agents. When you get to level 30 the game really opens up.

tee_bag2422416d ago

I thrashed it coop with mates non stop for about 2 months. We loved it. We didn't get into PVP but just the PVE was fantastic.

Wouldn't call it a ghost town my self. I have been playing it off and on for the past 2 months. It's an ok game with still plenty of people playing it.

Lennoxb632416d ago

No it's still a pretty active game.

Cherchez La Ghost2416d ago

IDK what server you playing on, but people are still playing this game.

Rage187x2416d ago

The pc version is not a ghost town. I play almost every day and never have a problem finding a team to take on challenging or higher difficulty missions.

I need to fire this one back up. Been too long. I enjoyed the heck out of it when I was playing almost every night.

Olr0wdy2416d ago

What platform you playing on.I'm on the OX1 ol r0wdy gamertage look me up playing solo most of the game.

TheHan2416d ago

I was just playing yesterday and theirs more people I've seen playing than ever before. I just can't believe what I'm seeing from those who say it's to late or say the game is dead have probably never played it or hasn't played sense the game released

dc4evachamp2416d ago

Had the game since day one. It's not dead yet but it's on life support.

IanTH2416d ago (Edited 2416d ago )

I don't think it is on life support really, feels a bit disingenuous to say that. Just looking at views from the 1.8 update trailer on the official Ubisoft channel shows over 400,000 views. For a point update, that seems pretty solid. And we know publishers will yank support for games early if they do not live up to financial expectations.

Perhaps they are keeping the game relevant since they've poured a lot into this IP and they plan to release a Division 2. People will be more likely to support a game they saw was well supported. Hell, perhaps the Division 2 is being worked on concurrently and they are simply borrowing bits of new features from that, making continued free improvements to the base game economically feasible even without blockbuster concurrent player counts.

It's all a guess, but it is obviously still worthwhile for them. It has steadily gotten better over time and is a solid experience. If they can make the world feel more dynamic/interactive and improve the gank filled Dark Zone, a sequel or hefty $40 expansion to Division 2.0 or however they handle it could certainly make for an even more excellent game.

InactiveUser2416d ago

Thank you Ubisoft! I suggested this a very long time ago.

kneon2416d ago

I am in absolute agreement with the OP 👌

shinoff2183380d ago

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.

-Foxtrot380d ago

Multiplayer or even co-op

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

Inverno380d 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.

Flawlessmic380d 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.

Hofstaderman380d 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.

Dagexon380d ago

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