About two weeks ago Ubisoft rolled out a massive patch for its looter shooter that people were abandoning left and right. Now players are coming back and newcomers are popping up, so how good is it really?
from paulsemel.com: In this exclusive Q&A, the author of the new technothriller based on "Tom Clancy's: The Division" discusses how it ties to the games while also bringing its own story to a close.
If you're looking to try out an exciting, team-based shoot 'em up, The Division is currently on sale on Steam!
TIM WHITE WRITES: "Multiplayer or single player? Developers, you can do both, just not willy-nilly."
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
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.
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.
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.
I got it for £12. I like it, and i'm sure i'll easily get value for money, even if it turns out to be repetetive.
Absolutely
Meh- will wait for The Division 2. Its being revealed next year anyway
This game was such a shame.
It needed more variety. All the enemies were just uninteresting people, even the "bosses" were just normal guys with more health.
And the Dark Zone was a giant disaster that could have been fantastic. It was a great idea bit poorly implemented.
Also, better gear that isn't just jackets and beanies.
Me and my friends did have a blast with the co-op tho. I would be interested in a sequel if they address some of these issues.
Funny, just yesterday was telling a buddy I should hop back on just take care of a few things to get my platinum and try out the dlc I never played since I quit the day that dlc1 released.
