New article in IGN today: http://uk.ign.com/articles/2014/10/24/how-the-division-is-combating-the-weight-of-expectation I'm top comment in that After Watch Dogs; I'm taking everything from Ubisoft with a pinch of salt especially the way they demo their games. It has massive potential but could easily be another letdown. That'll need a hell of a rig to play too - you seen the minimum specs for AC Unity Phil? Minimum PC Specs: Intel Core i5-2500K @ 3.3 GHz or AMD FX-8350 @ 4.0 GHz or AMD Phenom II x4 940 @ 3.0 GHz processor 6 GB RAM NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 or AMD Radeon HD 7970 (2 GB VRAM) video card Recommended PC Specs: Intel Core i7-3770 @ 3.4 GHz or AMD FX-8350 @ 4.0 GHz or better processor 8 GB RAM NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 or AMD Radeon R9 290X (3 GB VRAM) video card Additionally, the following requirements must be met: Windows 7 SP1 or Windows 8/8.1 (64-bit versions only) DirectX Version 11 DirectX 9.0c compatible sound card with latest drivers 50 GB available HDD space Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BO7H B4RRELS 2,447 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 That was a good read, thanks for posting it. The Division was the #1 game that got me excited about getting a PS4. I was bummed out to find it was pushed back. I almost forgot about it at this point. The article got me excited again. "we should expect a title that owes more to its RPG heritage than anything else. While gameplay does indeed take the form of third-player cover-based shooting, the actual wider “point” of the game is all about that genre-defining progression of levelling up, hunting the best loot, and using all you find to scale even greater heights." "It’s not a shooter with some RPG stats tacked on. It’s actually a proper RPG from the very beginning." I'd love to play this on PC, but most of my gaming friends will be getting it on PS4, so I'll be getting it for PS4 too because it looks like an amazing game to play in a party.

J4MES OX4D 9,798 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 The Division has been pinned back until Q1 2016 No real surprise though. Can't see the delay ending there either... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sennex 1,903 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Did they give a reason? I thought it was supposed to be almost finished. Luke 23:34 'And Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they don't think it be like it is, but it do." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J4MES OX4D 9,798 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Did they give a reason? I thought it was supposed to be almost finished. Here's the statement - bear in mind; Ubisoft Annecy were hired just 3 days ago to work on the project, so I reckon they are well behind schedule - probably spent months wasting time upscaling their E3 presentation before the inevitable downgrade Agents, We have decided to release the game on Xbox One, PS4 and PC during the first quarter of calendar year 2016. All of us at Massive, Reflections, Red Storm Entertainment and Ubisoft Annecy want to ensure the game not only meets our high expectations but also those of our fans and players alike. We are proud of what we have achieved so far and can’t wait to show you more next month at E3! Thanks for your support, The Dev Team Would a Sapphire 7870 run this? 2gig Too early to say but hopefully we'll here further details around E3 regarding specs and such..

phil bottle 9,589 Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 On 2014's showing from Ubisoft my enthusiasm for this waned. Taking longer to get it right can only be a good thing I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil bottle 9,589 Posted June 16, 2015 Author Share Posted June 16, 2015 From E3 2015 So, basically this will be kill on sight when it comes to other people in multiplayer. It's not longer a release day purchase for me, at least until more info is released. For example. Will there be those little cut scenes in the multiplayer every time you come across NPCs? That's a bit off putting for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every ALPHA Player that has slept with my mom will be an issue in that game. Luke 23:34 'And Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they don't think it be like it is, but it do."

That's a bit off putting for me. It'll be a PVP fest right from the get-go I expect if the likes of DayZ and other survival games to go by. The presentation yesterday was pretty underwhelming and the game looks exceptionally poor when showcased on hardware-comparable systems as opposed to the textually-enhanced demos we've seen previous. The framerate looks shite as well so I'm expecting <25fps at best. Looks more bloody downgraded than Watch Dogs but at least Ubisoft are demonstrating the game now at face value as opposed to leaving it at the last minute to spill the beans.

When I first heard about this game I thought good things but the longer they take on it, the worse it appears to actually be, but time will tell.

Sennex 1,903 Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I would be shocked if it didn't manage to hit 30FPS, thats not a hard number to reach with console hardware. Sadly, I think you are dead on in your thoughts about what we will end up with. Also, what was the deal with "Yellow" being the main color in AssCreed Syndicate?
