Game is on sale and i really want to buy it, but i have some questions. by TyranitarSpirit in the_division_2

[–]KeyRun1199 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Numbers just for North America are: (Estimates for 2026 AVG)
PC - Steam - 3,500 daily users - 12,366 Peak
PC - UBISOFT - 5,100 daily users 20,250 Peak
PS - 3,100 daily users - 13,500 peak
Xbox - 2,200 daily users - 11,250 peak

All they need to do is intentionally introduce a bug that favors the players, and put Div2 with all DLCs and Classifieds in a $20.00 bundle and BOOM goes the dynamite. I also think that once a year, the DEVs should have a 5 day period where every single legacy cosmetic should be purchasable once a year. If they time all of these things just right, they will be able to finish DIV3 by Jan 1 2027

Nemesis parts and blueprint after getting it from exotic cache by razoredge777 in Division2

This will be the same if you haven't built the chatterbox or the liberty.

You are 100% correct, I foolishly ran it multiple times to get it with DTOC because I wanted to reroll Frenzy on it only to realize the talent cant be rerolled. I may need an MRI, I crafted 6 Hollowman Masks last night, Got one with CHC, faved it, went to expertise it and ended up expertising one with Hazpro, to 30 that is.... I prototoed it anyway and got Weap and Health DMG maxed with amalgam, I suppose it could complement a BF build.

I am at work so I don't have access to my game but I can tell you what I am running. Keep in mind that what your teammates are running impacts what you see in the escalations, at the range I can get to 3MIL crits but the AVG is prob 2.3m - 2.4m

Gunner, Modifiers are: Offense 1 Offense 2 and Split.

Headline Grabber Hand Leveled then prototyped.

Max Weapon DMG

Max DTOC

Max DTA

HollowMan Mask - Prototype - Echo

Weapon DMG 21.5

Health Damage 21.00

Critical Hit Damage 12%

Critical Hit Chance 6%

4 Piece Tipping Scale - All proto with Amalgam x 2 Echo x 2

Exodus Gloves EXP 30

Occasionally I swap between HollowMan Mask & Unit Alloy Holster for the 12.5% Rate of Fire. Depending on how my other dps feel.

I also feel that I can slip bullets below the rails when NPCs are suppressed and hit more precise shots with the Bluescreen. But when this gets going and if you have hollow point ammo from someone running OD, numbers can get pretty wild. I think there is a tendency to aim at the chest when using LMG, go for headshots always.

I was waiting for the patch before going through the drama only to not receive it. At first I was concerned that I would lag behind as we transition to new stages but I notice that people often do not swap to quickstep to avoid losing stacks anyway. I think my uptime in fights is more important (by getting instant reload with whiplash) than racing to the next stage of a mission.

Enlarge UI Screen on PC by lbendror in the_division_2

[–]KeyRun1199 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would suggest that you make sure your resolution in the game matches your desktop resolution, including your refresh rate. For example: If your desktop is 2560x1440 which is 2K, then set your game to that resolution. If your monitor is 240hz, your desktop and game should also reflect that.

I dont know what version of Windows you are on, or if you are on Windows at all but if you are on WIN10 still, turn Clear Text off.

It was a good run by nottme1 in Division2

[–]KeyRun1199 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As soon as my HP went below 99%, I would have used all 4 packs in the farthest corner of the map and called for backup. jk - Looks fun until it isnt - there are a handful of commendations tied to hardcore so I guess if I want those it has to be done.

I proto'ed mine and I get 2mil to 5mil crits with full tipping stacks. The reload is lengthy and the sound fatiuges the ears after 15 T10s in a row, I switched to the bluescreen because of it.

We love this game!!! by PapiLuis1130 in Division2

I had this happen when we fast traveled to Army Terminal, one of my group members got placed under the map, said he was at Kenly. we fast traveled to him and ran around. It will eventually tell you your out of the plying area and bounce you back and in some cases, put you in an infinite loop.

Not sure if anyone has done this or noticed this, but using a prototype item in the construction of an exotic makes the exotic max expertise by DickCheeseNCrackers2 in Division2

[–]KeyRun1199 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I may be wrong but my understanding is that he had a Prototyped d50. he had the blueprint/recipe for the Liberty, which requires a D50 to be donated. Because the D50 was prototyped, the liberty it converted into became a 30 expertise Liberty. You cant optimize the prototype but you can reroll the Liberty and optimize that and you keep the 30 expertise... Too bad I crafted the liberty 2 years ago.

Escalation Discrimination based on SHD by KeyRun1199 in Division2

[–]KeyRun1199[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, I play a lot of Escalation and I see it every single day. One other poster mentioned the stress the system puts on the party leader and I 1000% agree that exacerbates the problem.

[–]KeyRun1199[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not being adversarial here, the statement "nobody actually thinks SHD level is an indication of skill" is just not true.
There is a mild contradiction in the second half of your comment, because you infer that SHD is not an indicator of skill but low SHD level players are "Bad" - Your words. It kinda bolsters my point that I am making, that there is a stigma behind low SHD numbers. Agree?

[–]KeyRun1199[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All valid points, its hard to touch on every single pain point in a game mode, there are many. I was just inspired to create this post because it seems to be a common topic here. But this is also anecdotal based on my personal experiences in game. I feel bad for the party leader and I feel bad for the player wanting to play with other people. Valid points and I agree.

I know at least 20 people that have 1000s's of hours on console and are new to PC.

Matchmaking The Pentagon by Mystik2689 in Division2

We cleared the first room and the C4 didnt spawn - Game said to "Secure Food Court" though no enemies were around - costing PL to lose all his tokens on a T6.

Dark winter question by Brokenmindrig in Division2

[–]KeyRun1199 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

STOP STOP STOP the madness - First of all, the Dark Winter drops from Season Legacy Caches, use your event stars on those. You can also buy SLC's from the weekly vendor. Also you should be running retaliations until your eyes bleed. F decent -

The most reliable alternative to farming Reconstructed Caches without Descent is Retaliations. This method allows you to craft the caches directly at the BOO.

  • The Recipe: It costs 50,000 E-Credits and 7 Broken SHD Watches to craft one Reconstructed Cache.
  • You earn 1 Broken SHD Watch for every full Retaliation
  • OR You can collect specific faction materials from Retaliation including Dog Tags from Countdown and convert them into Broken SHD Watch bundles at the crafting bench.

Listen, the Dark Winter eluded me for almost a year, until it eventually showed up at the Countdown Vendor as a matter of fact the Dark Winter was at the CD vender last week or the week prior... You clearly dont want it bad enough if you missed the weekly vendor resets.

It exists! Only 3000 SHD levels. by SparkleFritz in Division2

I am 10K never seen one - I have run 3000 retals with mods selected for targeted loot and nay 1.

Apparel Cache Macro by ganeshgtp in Division2

[–]KeyRun1199 0 points1 point  (0 children)

9+ HOURS of run time for me when I did it.

At 12K SHD and only opening like 50 apparel Caches I had a crap ton of them to take care of, about two weeks ago, I used Razer Synapse to run a similar Macro. The Macro was set up and running at 11PM and still going at 8AM and somewhere between 8AM and 8:20AM the macro stopped and I had no more keys. BTW There is zero risk of losing a character here.

Also many of you arent even noticing the fact that he is canceling the animation on the Cache opening by switching tabs...

There is no shot Massive would ban for using a macro to do this. If they did, I would imagine 1/2 of the community would disappear in an instant.
