Feeling some Division tonight, any PS4ers want some DZ, Incursion, or challenge mode farming?

[Brill Weave]

Sorry Mal I was over at my buddy's house(dangeta) when you jumped on. The food we ordered had just been delivered.

[Gadritan]

I'm on fucking around on Destiny. Shoot me a message of you want to do an incursion or something

[Cail]

I was out drinking and eating steak or I would have

Not surprising. People want a reason to keep playing the game. Unfortunately Massive has been very slow in providing them.

[Brill Weave]

I'm running around in the DZ at the moment if anyone wants to come along.

[Delayed]

Ugh. I can't stand the DZ. Griefers all around. Why are the same items not available as loot from challenging missions?

[Malithar]

Needs moar PS4 groups with Killer foaming at the mouth anytime an extraction happens. He'll have his knife at the ready.
Blog post here with more information too. Getting sealed caches added to DZ boss drop table, can extract them and open for DZ credits, DV tech, and gear.

Likely will be absorbed into Overwatch since they launch the same day.

[Brill Weave]

I'll be on tonight with Dan and another friend of ours.

Don't like the DZ extraction change where you can cut the cable and grab all the loot. I'm always solo so getting an extraction done is tense enough. I usually have 1-2 groups of rogues wandering around and trying to stop extractions. Once I get my pack on I'm usually hitting first aid and booking it.

The fact that they can come in after (30 sec timer before rope goes back up) and steal all my shit is not going to work for me. I wouldn't be able to hold off 4 guys either so that eliminates that too.

I'll see how the PvE goes I guess.

[Wulfgang]

I don't think it will be that bad, but they should decrease the initial extraction call time materially if they're going to do this. For example, bird comes after ~30s and you get ~30s to cut the rope. One minute is not a lot of time to traverse the map, so if you're getting ganked at extraction on that timetable, it means you need to be more cautious with your extractions / be more aware of potential threats via pulse, etc.

And sorry Brill; I turned the PS4 on last night, but ended up cooking dinner and doing various other things around the house. Saw your message/invites at like midnight.

[Tokitoki]

It's 1:30 for copter to come in and 30 for extract right? That's a long time right now. If they keep that timetable I'll be fucked for sure.

[Malithar]

Whenever I've soloed in the DZ I usually ran up to the parking garage extraction in DZ4. The main road leading up to it was pretty barren past the Library and it was far enough away from the rogue squads in 1 and 2 that they wouldn't bother. Hamish went into more details during their stream about how it'll work. Once someone starts cutting the rope they'll go rank 0 rogue for 19 seconds, it takes them 6 seconds to cut the rope, and if they complete it they go to rank 1 rogue. Still worried that we'll see people just SL in and cut it, but 6 seconds of free damage even with SL could be difficult to service unless you stacked out other forms of mitigation too, Booster Shot, 75% armor, 100k+ health, etc.

I'm more concerned with how a successful rope cut will play out. Cut the rope of a 4 person group with 9 in each pack, now you've got 36 items on the ground, or maybe only some drop as public loot like when you die. It'll be in a small cluster on the ground and inevitably, people will pick up the wrong loot drops. And if they crank loot up to the max like they're talking, I could see people being sour as fuck over losing legitimate 204/240 upgrades.

Oh I'll be back for 1.2 even if I'm not done with other games

[Tokitoki]

I want to try out the new Incursion and the Headhunter or w/e they're calling it. I'm also hoping their actually "expansion" stuff is more than just a single mission where you're trapped in a room.

I like the general gameplay and concept behind the game, but I run into a number of issues with how they're running it.

The going rogue stuff while you're cutting a line doesn't help me feel any better. You SHOULD go rogue if you're cutting the line, I assumed you would. I can only wait and see how this plays out, but it may push me out of the DZ completely unless I can find a group for the 15 minute stints I can actually do DZ.

We figured you would be salivating over this lol.

[killerx]

I'm not even sure of all the changes but I figured it had to be better lol
