The Division - Survival Update

[J4MES OX4D 10,279]

Anyone tried this yet? I uninstalled this long ago and didn't get the season pass thank god but this addition albeit at £12 is supposed to be welcome and looking at it; I really don't know why the entire concept of the game was based around this aspect. I probably wont go back to the game but it's nice to see the developers try and salvage it with sensible ideas.

When they released patch 1.4 it became playable again and I've been back on it recently.  I'm looking forward to trying Survival mode out. Downloading as I write.

I played it last night. I agree with Bain, should release it as a standalone.

As I went through it I kept thinking 'pointless, I can't find anything and I'll be dead in a second', but every time I thought 'here is the end' I managed to find something to survive that little bit longer.

Very enjoyable.

I picked this up tonight and in my first game I managed to get to the dark zone, grab the anti-virals but then I got creamed on big time by the NPC's. I lasted about 75 minutes and just like you Phil; I always managed to find something at last knockings to keep me going. It does seem a fun mode to play now and then and I really need to do some homework on how to extract successfully as I came so close after some hard work just getting into the dark zone but fell at the final hurdle. Only 4 players left too but the NPC's were the biggest threat in the end but I swerved many of them most of the time. I played at a good pace too - I usually get impatient against the urgency of such situations but I was pretty calm and controlled and it seemed a few players jumped the gun and died early.

It'll be interesting to see how I fare tomorrow. Fair play to Ubisoft though - seems they've turned the game around against the odds.
