I have a three day weekend so I'll probably be on quite a bit. I'm on PS4 and my PSN is dubplate.

This will be my first go so it may take me a bit to get up to speed.

Aaaaaand...I just noticed you are on XBL.

The zoom in on scopes that actually have zoom ability is quicker now, was too slow in closed beta. That's all that stood out so far.

The new second mission with all those flame throwing cleaners was great. That Boss' flame thrower has crazy range, look out!

Re: The Division (Xbone/PS4/PC)

i saw this on another forum, is this a valid concern?

From all i've seen over the past days with the turrets... f 'em. I really think they need to be completely removed from the game. Really stupid seeing 12 random people all throw their turrets around an extraction only for the turrets to blast everyone in sight killing half the people while making everyone Rogue. Dumb mechanic. Cut it.

Everyones spamming them... and the counters are basically nonexistent from what i have seen.

Yah... I'm starting to worry that turrets may ruin the game entirely... are they easy to destroy at least?

And do they really just target anyone who is not in your party? That alone completely breaks their use in the DZ... they should at least only target someone who is Rogue, or non-Rogue if you are rogue... and what happens if two Rogue's fight each other??

This sounds impossible to get right, remove them!

Re: The Division (Xbone/PS4/PC)

I opened up the turret but didn't really get to mess with it this morning. Jare had used it a bit and can prolly expand on this more.

I'm honestly not worried about it. How about going security at an extraction point and using either shield or barrier?

I had already figured having a different loadout in the DZ minus the turret might be a viable option. I'll see for myself this late afternoon / evening after work.

Re: The Division (Xbone/PS4/PC)

Honestly the easiest way out for Ubi on this is to disable the turret in the dark zone, let the user set a dark zone ability bar and a PvE ability. No idea how else they can make turret viable yet balanced in dz

The counter for the turret is you wait it out or stay at range, it's accuracy is poor at any sort of distance. Waiting it out is easy as the battery runs out very quickly. Otherwise there's going to be this dz turret wackiness.

They need to make it so you can't make someone else go rogue by shooting their turret, and make it so a persons turret doesn't trigger aggro by stray bullets either.

Keep in mind you only pick two abilities so someone with a turret doesn't have pulse, or a heal, or a shield, etc.

I used the turret my entire time in dark zone with zero issues but I can see why people are having concerns and running into problems in the dz

Edit: or ubi leaves it the same and people just accept the dz is large scale open world war and crazy stuff can happen

A shame you can't play the beta and experience it yourself. It's first a foremost an RPG with shooter elements. You have go in knowing that enemies will take many bullets to down, all dependent on your level, their level, your gear and weapons,etc.....With that being said, it is worth the money to me personally and I find it very fun!
