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.

If it's the only game you own then it gets boring. I play multiple games and find myself putting in a couple hours a week into the Division. Game is well worth it!

Got bored early on, but am now loving it, but like you say, the dlc isn't worth the price at the minute.
If your expectations are not too high and you like co-op play, it's fun for a couple of hours. It's hard to get quality groups but it's not as bad as many of the reviews would lead you to believe. It's certainly worth the reduced price unless you hate shooters.

Currently got 350+ hours game time in this, it's improved alot since release. I enjoyed the story even though it just ends with the bad guy getting away, you would of thought "Oh they will continue the story in DLC" but nope that's not the case.
Out of the 3 DLC packs, the only one worth it in my opinion is Survival. Underground is just a handful of mini dungeons where you can get a couple pieces of gear and the upcoming Last Stand DLC is just a dedicated PVP mode.
For under £10 it's easily worth it. Just don't bother with the DLC, unless you like H1Z1 and DayZ type games then at least pick up the Survival DLC.

The game has changed and improved considerably and with 1.6 new patch dropping nxt week there differences when you played it is loads and for under 10 quid its well worth it !!! like you said you played 60 hrs ( for under a tenna 60 hrs is a lot of game :wink: )

Bought this day 1 and I've played about 60 hours give or take on the PS4.
The Division has problems at its core. There's still no content in game, and all the DLCs are gimmicky mini games that should have been in game from the get go. At this point they're just trying to artificially extend the life of the game by essentially making you have to redo all your gear every time a patch hits.
Not to mention, there is no point in any of it. At least in other gear treadmill games you improve your gear for more interesting raids/battles. In The Division you get "better" gear just so you can go empty 3 magazines worth of ammo into the skull of an NPC before it dies then you move on to the next one to do the same and it's like that in every mission. The AI doesn't get smarter. The fights don't get tougher. It's just "Lets just take a fight that normally takes 3 second, and make it last 30 seconds by adding more HP". That's the theme of The Division. Oh and that gif is after the so called "Sponge Bullet Reduction" that happened in 1.4.
Would not recommend.

Love this game, its an rpg shooter a lot like diablo where your collecting loot to improve your character, coop is amazing. The single player story is pretty good on its own and the city is a brilliant looking place to explore. Just wish they would add more story elements and expand the city even more. I have the gold edition on both Xbox and pc i loved it so much, don't be afraid to match make the story missions as the coop element makes this game

Any deals on the season pass out there?

Can't find any, I'm hoping it drops as I wouldn't mind trying them as enjoyed the game but can justify spending twice the amount for add ins as the game cost

Played loads of hours of this game. I'll never get those hours back now. Totally pointless, every patch they release it's they've fixed this or that but in truth that never happens.

Been playing this for the last 6 months and have all the expansions.
It's truly worth it at this price.
I'd just say that each patch, for me, makes very little difference apart from nuking certain gear sets.
The Dark Zone PVP mechanisms is still massively broken and 1.6 will do nothing to change that.
The game is brilliant if you ignore the broken DZ PVP element.

Gamers have been beta testers for years, same happened with DriveClub on the PS4, the game now is vastly improved since launch, at least it worked properly at launch unlike quite a few other games.

I played it quite a bit at launch, but haven't played it for a while now. What's the survival dlc like? Quite tempted with it?

I have paid 17 quid a couple of months ago for this. It looks stunning but it got me bored real quick. I cannot recommend it.
Mind you I bit Battlefield 1 and Overwatch so The Division is definitely not an option for me

Where's the 5% discount? How to apply it etc. Could be useful info to add to this post instead of copy pasting all that junk.

Strange I think the opposite. I got this free with a mb deal. Played it for an hour and thought it was rubbish. I guess we all like different things in a game

Was that in the last three or four months? The game has changed and improved considerably in the last year - a lot of the launch criticisms no longer apply.

Well worth it at this price..... Patch 1.6 should be a great improvement and dropping soon
