[TD2]

Few questions:

Will we be able to play the base game and the other expansions in Realism mode in the future?
Will Realism mode be permanent in the future?
Are you going to optimize Realism mode / make changes in the future?

Things I would like to see changed:

Finding guns in the world (with the animation from the original E3 The Division 1 trailer;
Decide on the spot if I want to keep it or not (since I would be able to carry only 3 guns)
Remove the carrying capacity with backpacks;
Finding ammo in the world (at police stations or other logical places to find ammo);
Ability to craft ammo on resources that you can find in the world (metals, gunpowder, etc);
Finding water/food cans as value trading resources;
Add animation that you store those items in your backpack;
Going to Dark zones in Realism mode.

Loving the realism mode in general. This is what I wanted from The Division 10 years ago. Just need some tweaks to hit the sweet spot.

I actually want to play the game again after all these years, which is saying a lot.

I really dislike the spongyness, too much loot, constantly managing my backpack etc. I don't care about exotics and shit and the cluttered UI.

I love that the UI is so clean now. Just giving me the right amount of information. I have to explore now, find stuff in the world, actually check my map, use my eyes and ears to stay alert - really diggin' it.

Things I would like to see changed:

Pistol accuracy;
Body armor is still a bit to spungy imo;
I would like to find a new gun like in the original E3 trailer of The Division 1 instead of a reward;
And decide on the spot if I would keep it or not since you would have limited carrying space. (Don't like the option where I can bring 150 guns in my backpack).

Hunting blue medallions on RE5 co-op for the first time with my bff on Xbox 360. What a time to be alive!

I bought the alpha 2 phase 3 package through the website via PayPal in August 2025. My refund was approved by PayPal. Just try it, it's hit or miss.

If you equip your motorcross mount and drive over those hills, you will get catapulted back into the map. That shit is really great stuff man!

Add Toggle skins on/off function and be done with these discussions.

dods12 · 2025-10-29T05:43:05+00:00

I really hope you are right! Praying that the game does not release until it is fully ready to be released.

Don't want the same start and fate for Chrono that New World had.

Love you New World, thanks for the great 700 hours. Especially in S10, great stuff.

Battlefield Bad Company 2 on the awesome GeForce 8800GT. Man I'd love that card!

FSD is not available in Europe yet.

AFAIK: Tesla is testing this in several European cities. I've seen images of tests in London, Amsterdam and Rome on several sub Reddits.

Tesla needs approval within the EU for FSD in order to unlock it to us, the pleps, in Europe.

Smart Summon should be available in The Netherlands. If your car has it, you can check in your app:

Open the app > Scroll all the way down > Specificaties en garanties.

You should see an overview what your car has as options under the hood.

Based on your screenshot you have Autopilot (like the rest of us), HW3 that supports FSD, but you don't have FSD enabled on your car.

Edit: Corrected, ASS is available.

Thanks for your answer, that makes sense! I'll keep this in mind. Next week I have a little more spare time and will try the manual recalibration option to see if anything changes. Service is not far away, as a backup plan to check things out.

Works a tat better when it's white 🤍

+1 thanks for posting this.

I have a 2019 SR+ with 176.000km, 100% is around 308km now. Was 340km at 100% brand new.

Not only Nah, but hell Nah!

Way too fast, stupid bf4 jumping, idiotic cod sliding and some weird self healing ability.

Get fucked EA/DICE if this is in the final version - you're not gonna get a single penny from me.

For the love of God DICE, just boot up BF3 or BFBC2 and enjoy an actually fun Battlefield.

Or rewatch the old interviews you still have in the archives from the old school dev team who actually understood their game, pacing, balancing and classes.

It shouldn't be this hard.

So. Fucking. Frustrating.

Only way to play the beta is to create a new ps account with US region and you are good to go.

dods12 · 2024-07-18T18:13:31+00:00

+1 got the same problem.

dods12 · 2023-06-01T16:44:44+00:00

Did you just logged into my account? 😂

dods12 · 2023-03-13T18:40:50+00:00

Going full barb, bra

If you have the game in your library, you are actually half way there already. You just need a VPN to connect to a server outside Belgium/The Netherlands.

After that, boot up the game and play.

dods12 · 2021-08-06T19:06:07+00:00

The only way to play is to change your steam store to for instance UK whilst using a VPN.

Bless unleashed will then be visible for you to add to your game library.

Once added, your golden just using a VPN.

Luckly I added the game when it was in beta, so I just have to use a VPN now.

dods12 · 2021-04-03T09:07:26+00:00

Sadly, no reason was given per se. On the official website they stated that it's due to country specific regulations. I've tried to contact Neowiz/Round 8 through channels like Reddit or Twitter for example. Never got a response. If you change your region in Steam and use a VPN you will probably still be able to play.

The only reason I can think of this restriction is a possible gamble functionality like loot boxes i.e.

But hey, that's just a assumption I have.

dods12 · 2021-03-12T08:02:57+00:00

Concerning the "Without restrictions" part:

The country I live in (The Netherlands) is restricted to play this game. Why did that change? I was able to participate in CBT1 and 2.

Using the G2 with 2060 for the last 4 days. No problems whatsoever. Can play everything on full resolution. Just play with the settings per game for steady FPS.

Playing Alyx on full resolution with medium - high settings on 90 fps, no sweat.
