Cheapest price I have seen for this game. Played it at launch and have recently got back into it again.
Edit: Thanks to JWSG for reminding me about the 5% discount code reducing it from £11.99 to £11.39.
I know its Uplay, which will receive some negative feedback, but if your okay with that (and like saving a few quid) then its not that bad.
Game Blurb
We live in a complex world. The more advanced it gets, the more vulnerable it becomes. We’ve created a house of cards: remove just one, and everything falls apart.
A devastating pandemic sweeps through New York City, and one by one, basic services fail. In only days, without food or water, society collapses into chaos. The Division, an autonomous unit of tactical agents, is activated. Leading seemingly ordinary lives among us, these agents are trained to operate independently in order to save society.
When society falls, we rise.
Total Breakdown
We live in a fragile and complex world, a web of interdependent systems we rely on every day. When one fails, others follow, creating a deadly domino effect that can cripple society in days. In Tom Clancy’s The Division, immerse yourself in a frighteningly chaotic and devastated New York City, where all has failed. As a Division agent, your mission is to restore order, team up with other agents, and take back New York.

Welcome to an online, open world RPG experience where exploration and player progression are essential. Use your skills, weapons, and wits in combat. Play in a persistent and dynamic environment that combines the Tom Clancy series’ core authenticity and tactical decisions, RPG action, trading, and much more.

Team up with friends in co-op, jump in and jump out at any time, and use your combined skills to fight the crisis, investigate the sources of the virus, and engage all threats... even your own citizens. Seamlessly engage in PvP, player-to-player trading, and experience suspenseful scenarios where danger can come from anywhere and anyone.

Such a bad game, even with the DLC.
Wished I hadn't bought the deluxe version with season pass. Toxic

Agree, the campaign was...ok with friends but the dark zone, end game is absolute trash!!
I bought this on release and wished I hadn't as soon as I finished the game incredibly quickly.
At this price it might be worth if someone doesn't care about longevity of gameplay

The survival dlc is good, but it should have been free though.

I don't understand why people hate on this game so much. I can only assume that a lot of people are still upset that the game didn't deliver at launch or something along those lines. I bought the game around xmas time and have found it to be pretty decent based on normal expectations.

Yeah, there seems to be a big difference of opinion between people who played it at launch and hated it, and people playing from 1.4/1.5 and loving it.
Of course, one group's opinions is far more relevant than the other's today. :wink:

Really tempted, heard that you pretty much need the DLC? And they cost a fair bit :disappointed:

You don't need any of the DLC.

Stopped playing 2 months after it's release and have just started playing it again. The game has improved alot since then.
If you get any of the DLC then pick Survival, you'll get some fun out of that mode. Underground DLC is just mini dungeons that other people don't bother playing anymore, there's better places to get gear.
Dark Zone (PVP area) is a no go area if you solo play, other players now spend their time camping check points (spawn areas) and will kill you on sight even though you have no gear to drop.

I came to it from Destiny and found Destiny had much more longevity than it. Destiny had the Crucible, Trials of Osiris, Iron Banner and a variety of gameplay with a (mediocre) campaign (like Division), strikes, better variety of loot and game mechanics, more interesting and varied environments and importantly end game that was largely enjoyable with a group of friends. The Vault of Glass was still one of the defining gaming experiences I can speak of.
Though even Destiny lost its way a number of times, had it not been for the Crucible I'd had dropped it a long time before I did.
Division in comparison is pretty enjoyable for the first 10 hours until you recognise you've seen everything there is to see by that stage.
I wouldn't play it for £11 even knowing what I know now as massive patently had no idea what they were doing at any point of development.

Totally agree. Destiny is a superior experience in my opinion...just a shame Activision chose a model that pretty much disables the game unless you shell out each year for dlc. For this price The Division certainly offers some fun for coop play, but get ready to plough many, many bullets into the ai heads on every mission. I've got to level 18 and already finding it a substantial grind.
