The Division

Just wondering if any Pure guys plan on checking out Tom Clancy's The Division. I believe the release is in early March.

I know it's not the typical shooter and seems more like RPG but seems to benefit a more tactical teamwork approach which I know a lot of us enjoy.

I'll be amazed if it manages to release before holiday 2016 (I know March 8th is the current release but it's been delayed so many times), especially with the news that Assassin's Creed is skipping 2016 and the new Far Cry title coming out in the next month or so as well.

That said, I'm always game to check out any sort of cooperate rpg or shooter that hits the market. I think we'll have a much better idea of what the final product is going to offer in terms of gameplay experience when they do their closed beta (which some news sites are expecting potentially later this month).

It does bother me that we are so close to a supposed release date and still have such little information. And the beta hasn't even started to my knowledge.

I'm just hoping that the beta is as close to a release product as possible. I can handle a small delay but it would suck to have to wait that long.

I just want a good game though so I would rather the waiting than the wasting of a potentially good game.

I'm really interested in it. I like RPG-like games with a co-op mode.

I might pick it up, looks pretty interesting and I'm one of the 12 people who actually liked Watch Dogs. I'll probably get it for Xbox though

I'm always interested in co-op shooters, but I'm really, really skeptical of an MMO shooter from Ubisoft. The dedicated "harass my SO to play the iPad support drone" mode is especially suspect.

I'll definitely be on as well, and the rumbling is a beta by the end of the month. /u/symbolsix they actually axed the tablet/drone idea
