WCCFt: Tom Clancy's The Division, the new third person shooter developed by Ubisoft Massive, is very close to release, but there's still quite a bit we don't know about the game. We probably won't even know about these unrevealed features until the game is out, as Ubisoft most likely wants to surprise players in some way. Some of these yet to be announced features, however, might have been revealed today.
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.
Nice, I need to stay way from these articles though because I'm going to spoil the thrill of OHHHHHHHHHH SHHHHH**** they have this in here... lOl
Hmmm wonder if there are any decent sized parks within the known map area…
Ubisoft said they had some surprises they were not going to reveal. They said we would have to find out on release.
Can't wait for my sleeper agent edition to turn up.
(The text goes to say things like your team is winning, and only 30 seconds left. It also mentions “the enemy has the upper hand”, which points towards an adversarial mode.)
That bit makes me wonder if there's some type of faction wars, the type you see on pc mmorpg's. On part of a map factions own certain zones and by crossing them your basically at war with the opposing faction or factions. It's an on going war but Ubisoft may change it to a different type of faction war if there is one where players choose a faction and get launched into a part of a map, where the winning player who represent there faction must win. Winning the match would give a percentage in that territory and there would be.multiple territorys all with there own percentages. After a certain amount of days sometimes it's a month the winning faction would gain better rewards compared to the losing side. Of course I'm just speculating here but if all that text is true and Ubisoft have some big surprise awaiting us like that, then omg I'm loving it.
If they add some type of faction wars to the division I would most certainly be playing for a long time to come, especially if they add.more reward vendors with different clothing, weapons and armors..
See man, I keep telling people, the beta was like 3% of the full game. There's tons of stuff to come. I'm trying to be patient. So I'll likely stop reading these articles starting now. The Division was pushed back from releasing for a reason. Ubisoft knows they have to get this one right. And I personally believe they will create something their company can really build on. The future is bright for The Division.
