I preordered it new years day and have anxiously been wawait the beta news for two weeks after that. I heard the news about the 3day beta for Xbox and 2day for PC. Just awaiting the install button on steam to appear. Add me on steam and I will deff be down to start playing on Friday after Iget off work. I will be on it all weekend. II'm not even really planning on sleeping if the game is really that good lol. Naomi_Lynn.

I got good news for you then



My steam as of this morning.

And of course I'm on 24 hour staff duty today/tonight lol. Ima have to start the download when I bring my wife home from work. Cuz I'm playin that shit AS SOON AS I get home from work Friday lol

 

[Jerad]

It's a 25ish GB download, didn't take long to download and install this morning before I left for work so you probably got some time to get it preloaded before the beta goes live.

I have this beta in my library however i can't remember ever pre-ordering it.
It might have come with the Tom Clancy humble bundle.
Anyone else got beta? Check your U-Play if it shows up in your library.

I'm not too good at division. Ken is a mathmagician though.

It does look good. I like the different PvE and PvP areas idea, and it does look like it's shaping up nicely. I just hope it's not hampered by the consoles... I hear it's been given a significant downgrade to the visuals because, well, because consoles.

 

[Jerad]

Judging by the recommended system req's I think the downgrade was also to ensure a smooth experience on PC. They're calling for a GTX970 as a recommended card. With how past Ubisoft games have had issues I am not surprised they would do this.

Also they're saying it's not just going to be a console port, looks like PC will be getting a complete work over.

Too many RPG-elements in the firefights for me.

I can see how people would dislike that. But thats what has me excited. It looks like sort of a Diablo 3 style ARPG that combines a shooter.

I've been watching this game develop for years now and gave up watching simply because there never seemed to be a release date in site.

Now I'm excited to see it finally coming out and will be all over this game, at least in the beginning. It looks like it's going to be an amazing team based tactical shooter and I'm excited about the RPG elements as well.

...but this is Ubisoft and they don't exactly have a rock solid reputation so it'll be interesting to see what happens on release.

While Ubisoft is a worry, the game is being built by the Ubisoft Massive team which has a pretty good reputation for game development. I assume the delays are also to make sure everything is spot on before release.

greenmangaming is legit. I've bought games from them a few times with bitcoin before.

 

[Peeble]

That's really tempting but I think I'm going to hold off until after the beta, still not sure on it.

 

[little P]

It's pretty cheap here too.

Can get another 5% too at the moment.

I'm going to wait and see with this one. My trust in anything associated with Ubisoft is still very limited.
