The Division’s Beta is So Popular, Ubisoft Can No Longer Guarantee Access

Have you not received your The Division beta codes yet? We have some bad news to break to you — Ubisoft can no longer gurantee access, even to those who pre-ordered the game. In a recent entry on the UbiBlog, Ubisoft said that “unprecedented demand for access to The Division Closed Beta” is going to lock people out.

[GameTechZero]

I must say I am enjoying the beta a lot.

[Black0ut]

The game feels really polished IMO. Can't wait for the March full release.

[MegaMohsi]

ubisoft mishandling something? I am shocked!

/s

[YinYangGaming]

It's currently #1 on Amazon for Xbox One and then followed by the PC version and then the PS4 version, this game is going to sell huge and will be popular as people move away from Destiny

[nX]

People just preorder it on Amazon because it's easy to cancel it again. I did it as well but I definitely won't buy another Ubisoft game on launch day.

[YinYangGaming]

Regardless the fact it's number 1 is a good way at least of gauging how much interest there is in the game

[-Foxtrot]

Probably people want to try it so they don't have to spend money on it at launch to try it out.

[Mr-Dude]

I am happy i tried it, i didn't like it. Empty world, bland, no interaction, pvp is fun but not for a hour or longer at least for me, graphics are a let down. Maybe i will buy it next year when it's complete. But fun for the people who will enjoy it

[-Foxtrot]

See...and all that money you have saved will go to another game

You win.

[Khaotic]

Oh my a beta that lacks content. Its a stripped down demo to stress test servers. How long have you been gaming and have you ever participated in an alpha or beta. And graphics are really good. Honestly i dont think youve played it and are just trolling

[-Foxtrot]

@Khaotic

Battlefront lacked content in the beta and the game was actually like that...same goes for Destiny.

It's these types of games, online focused that's what they are like

[Khaotic]

@foxtrot and I like millions enjoyed Destiny. Content can be subjective especially if it has replayabiliity. Battlefront ill give you, but destiny had 100+ hours of content at release between nightfalls, raid, heroics, exotic bounties and crucible. If i get a 100 hours out of a game i got my moneys worth. I ran vog 30 times and i had fun. People fall into marketing hype and then feel screwed over. Just enjoys thing for what they are, leave expectations behind and gaming and life will be alot happier.
The division will give me 100 hours or better of content. Between the crafting, story and darkzone. Im in day 1, last game i bought full price was fallout 4 and now ill get this one

[Mr-Dude]

@khaotic
Dude, i am nearly 32 and i am from the amiga days ( with my dad) so i game long enough...

I am not trolling, the graphics are not that good. If you like it, wel good for you. I for one found it a let down. The content was meager, for a beta, i get it. But! The world itself is bland dude, there is no interaction with the openworld. This is just another destiny. If you and other players are happy with this, well have fun. But me and my friends saw it right away. We will wait till this game is complete

I read you liked destiny, well then you will like this also. But there are also people who don't like low content games

:-)

[Cohagen420]

Yup, haven't received mine.

[Majin-vegeta]

I got in and didnt even pre order lel ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[NicSage]

Same.

[MCTJim]

It was being offered up until the day it released to get guaranteed access to the Beta if you preordered. Now they cant fulfill that because demand was too high? What kind of crap is that? I am only in because a friend gave me the actual code and I've still not received my code and I preordered 2.5 months ago.

[ZombieStalker]

Typical Ubisoft crap! Guantanteed access to the beta! So basically Ubisot lied!

Isn't it beneficial to have as many players as possible to test the game, servers and network infrastructure? I guess Ubisoft doesn't think so.

No beta code, my pre order will be cancelled immediately. I'm not going to give some company over a month to sit on my pre order deposit and make money off me when they don't hold up their end of the deal.

[Khaotic]

I preordered on amazon and dont get get charged anything till game ships. Curious as to how youve already given Ubi money

[DillyDilly]

The right thing to do here is extend it & open it up

[DC777]

Well that's dumb. No code so canceled.

[NewAgeisHere]

Lol it's a waste of disk space..........terrible game, biggest disappointment since Watch Dogs.

[Khaotic]

Nice troll, no its not

[roguedragon1]

Why does having an opinion make someone a troll especially as it's just an opinion on a game. And yes it is! I don't like it either.

[Khaotic]

He trolls thats what he does i call him out. Its why he has 6 bubbles in over 500 comments. And i doubt you have played it. But if you have, and dont like i understand. I loved destiny and lots hated it. But i also dont feed into hype or judge a game by who publishes it.

[Mr-Dude]

So.. I have 6 bubbles over 900 comments. Am I a troll to Then? You can read all my comments. Maybe 2 or 3 are marked for trolling yes, just like more people have endured over the years, just for voicing your opinion.

[Khaotic]

I dont know you or have i ever ran across you. And its usually how you voice your opinion that dictates trolling or reasonable opinions. But him i know and stand by my statement.

[Sevir]

Haven't spent enough time to really gauge it. But judging a game based on a beta where more than 95 percent of the content is locked, lol OK. Gamers have seriously become just pessimists!

[vanity29]

Ghost recon: the mmo. Lol jk. From what i played of it, don't think ill be buying.

[taijutsu363]

Still up for debate if I will get it or not.

Cuz Im wondering if there will be a story like Destinys where you complete the story (Year 1) and should then focus on PVP? Divisions PVP being Dark Zone.

Beta impressions:

Dislikes:
Majority of Buildings will be closed so youll have to be running on the streets and going around the block instead going inside a structure to use as a shortcut.

Dont know if receiving money will be increased in the full game, but funds felt limited so you will feel tempted to buy microtransactions.

If one or your teammates "accidentally" shoots a player in the Dark Zone your whole squad becomes Rogue agents.

Only one person can search loot boxes at a time and you cannot go back and loot those same boxes over again.

Likes:
When touring the city you will be able to find ECHOES that will let you see past events that have occurred, such as people getting taken away because they are "infected" or a couple being burned cause of "Cleaners" that want to rid the city of the incfection.

In the Dark Zone when players have defiled the
Division you can kill these "Rogues" as their called, who have killed other people and taken their loot and kill them and take the loot they stole without becoming a Rogue yourself .

When you are a Rogue you have a cooldown timer until you become a non-hostile agent again, but should you still be in the mood to be a bad guy and you continue to shoot any other players, even if they are Rogue themselves, your timer gets extended.

If you stay a Rogue agent for an extended period of time, then the game issues a manhunt (I was the hunted) your location can be seen constantly on the map and you need to survive for 5 minutes and when you do you will be rewarded.

Has a Fallout 4 type of recruitment missions of getting people to a safe haven and finding more personnel like doctors, cops, etc., to upgrade your base of operations.
