ABOUT TOM CLANCY’S THE DIVISION 2:
Seven months have passed since a deadly virus hit New York City and the rest of the world, crippling the population. When the virus hit, The Division, a unit of civilian sleeper agents, was activated as the last line of defense. Since then, Division agents have been fighting relentlessly to save what remains.



For The Division, the stakes are higher than ever. Washington, D.C. – the most heavily protected city on earth – is at risk, leaving the entire nation on the brink of collapse. If Washington, D.C., is lost, then the nation falls. As a Division agent who has been in the field for seven months, you and your team are the last hope to stop the fall of society after the pandemic collapse.



Developed by Ubisoft Massive and the same teams that brought you Tom Clancy’s The Division®, Tom Clancy’s The Division® 2 is an online open world, action shooter RPG experience set in a collapsing and fractured Washington, D.C. This rich new setting combines a wide variety of beautiful, iconic, and realistic environments where the player will experience the series’ trademark for authenticity in world building, rich RPG systems, and fast-paced action like never before. Play solo or co-op with a team of up to four players to complete a wide range of activities, from the main campaign and adversarial PvP matches to the Dark Zone – where anything can happen.



A TRANSFORMED WASHINGTON, D.C.
In the wake of the virus, storms, flooding, and subsequent chaos have radically transformed Washington, D.C. Explore a living open world full of diverse environments, from flooded urban areas to historic sites and landmarks, during one of the hottest summers in history. The streets have been overrun with enemy factions, each with its own agenda and each vying for control of DC. It will be up to you to liberate the city and protect what remains of society.



BEST-IN-CLASS ENDGAME EXPERIENCE
Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 was built with an “endgame-first” mentality, ensuring players always have access to fresh, unique, and diverse activities long after completing the main campaign. Tom Clancy’s The Division 2’s endgame will introduce brand new challenges and progression systems, unique twists and surprises, and for the first time, raids. Players will also be able to access a wealth of post-launch content, including a full year of free additional story-driven missions, map expansions, and gameplay modes.



REVAMPED PLAYER PROGRESSION AND NEW SPECIALIZATIONS
After completing the main campaign, gain access to new specializations such as demolitionist, sharpshooter, and survivalist. Each specialization will open up an entire new progression system with new skills, mods, and unique talents to acquire and maximize your agent efficiency in your chosen role. DYNAMIC LIVING WORLD Civilians and enemy factions are constantly striving to survive, vying for necessities such as food, medicine, and ammunition. As the factions face off against each other in a ravaged DC, they will fight to seize control of resources and locations – and for their very survival. The various needs and motivations from each faction will collide, triggering different encounters between enemy and friendly factions, civilians, and ultimately you as an Agent, creating a dynamic living world full of surprises.



UNITE THE CIVILIANS
Civilians have banded together in settlements to rebuild their society, but their very existence is threatened. Work closely with them to keep them safe and in turn, they will come to your aid and provide supplies and assistance to build up your base of operations, giving a deeper meaning to the people and the world around you.



A RENEWED DARK ZONE EXPERIENCE
The Dark Zone is an untamed area of the map with some of the best loot in the game. The Dark Zone is also the most dangerous area in the game, where fear, betrayal, and tension are high, as any other agent can turn against you and steal your hard-earned loot. In Tom Clancy’s The Division 2, this playground was designed to provide a fair and exciting experience to all players, regardless of their level of progression.

A hefty bump for this as the private beta is live as of today until sunday/Monday morning. Managed to wrangle a key from being signed up to the game's website so I'll be checking it out later on today.

Not really got many expectations for the game. The First Division was fine but it began to drag for me so I didn't end up seeing out the story (dropped out probably half way through). From the trailers, I'm not sure this has be excited any more than I was for the first one but I'm willing to jump in and give it a go to see what they've changed up and whether they've improved the gameplay so that you're not constantly firing round after round into groups of bullet sponges.

At the very least, it's something new to try over the weekend. Who knows, it may well end up being good. Anyone else jumping in?

Open beta next weekend.

 

Ill definitely be giving it a try again but I hope the endgame isn't as crushing at it was in the last beta.

Played the first installment's beta...didn't enjoy it very much. 

Gonna give the new game's beta a try, though. Has to be really convincing if they want me to buy it, especially with Path of Exile coming to PS4 sometime in March.

It's so fucking boring.

Movement is slow and feels clunky. Shooting doesn't have any "oomph" at all. 

Deleted the beta and I will never play the full release.

Picked this up in the Xbox Christmas sale; went for the ultimate edition which apparently should have cost me £90, but I got it for £20!

It's good, a great continuation of the first game, with added bits in to make it feel more than just a carbon copy.

I ploughed hundreds of hours into the first, there is something about this game which I enjoy so much more than Destiny etc, think it's more of the "real world" element than the fantasy. 

I will say, as impressive as they've made Washington, and as much sense as it makes, it doesn't quite create the amazing atmosphere that New York did in the first one. Still, looking forward to getting to the end game and seeing what that has to offer!
