First things first - I liked The Division a lot. Especially as an alternative to Destiny during its great Content Drought of 2016. The new Destiny update has brought me and others back and while the update is really just a facelift, I think Bungie did a nice job with it.
By comparison though - The Division has been broken as F. Unless you were exploiting the various glitches ad naseum, you can't step into the DZ without getting gang banged and one shotted. Considering how long the division was in development I'm amazed so many exploits existed and were not addressed prior to release. That said, the problems with the division will take a lot of work and creativity to solve. Even at its worst destiny was never this broken.
In the end, the experience with the division taught me to appreciate bungie a little more and to recognize how hard it is to make a perfect game.
See you all in IB.

1 ReplySay what you want, but they have been incredibly responsive to the larger bugs and they have a community manager that is always out front. Deej could learn a lot from Hamish Bode. I still love both games and the division is a little bit of a mess right now but I think massive will pull it together and keep a comprable product

51 RepliesLoL at calling another game broken while on a Destiny forum. Guess you forgot about pushing Atheon off the ledge or the Templar. What about the cord pull job on Crota? Or the fact you can skip 90% of that Crota raid and can solo it rather easy back when we were still only 32's. And let's not talk about the broken state of Pvp in this game or the fact that there have been more nerfs than weekly updates! Unlimited bow and hammer glitches in Pvp. This game has been broken since day 1 but don't tell that to a Desticle. LoL but yeah a game that has been out less than 2 months is far more broken. Get over yourself Chump.

3 RepliesOP killed zero rogue players and extracted fewer than 150 items, nice to see he gave the DZ an honest chance though. Another dark zone dilettante coming home to roost.

Lol, if this update brought you back, you are -blam!-ing sucker. Play Dark Souls 3, a real -blam!-ing game!

Edited by dumb titan: 4/29/2016 8:33:56 PMIn all fairness, yes the games broken, but it's still the hottest game out..just passed black ops 3 as the top digital selling game of all time...wasn't even close 101 million to 48 million.. dollars not units

1 ReplyPeople really just don't seem to understand how goddamn hard it is to maintain and run a persistent world video game, particularly on consoles where it hasn't been done as often. Take a coding class. Look up how hard this shit actually is. Then, go make a similar game. See how glitch free and stable it comes out.

Edited by Mr Millz: 4/28/2016 1:45:39 AMThere all playing the division.. Have you thought of that lmfao? I haven't seen a [quote]division killed destiny[/quote]post in a while. Maybe bungie lost a few ppl.. Fans.. Idk my opinion.

Ill agree with you on some points but not on the point that destiny was never badly broken. Ive just recently come back to destiny after the update having taken a break since January and played the division pretty hardcore during that break, but one thing i found is that i got bored much much quicker with it than i did with destiny, i did enjoy it a lot while playing it for awhile though until i got to endgame and was there for awhile. Its the same grindy repetitiveness of destiny but atleast with destiny i get a little diversity, bosses are different, in the raid theres different mechanics to kill the bosses theyre not just bullet sponges with names. Also even though i was super excited about the darkzone i feel like this is the area that let me down the most and being as its the only PvP it just magnifies the let down for me, so its back to destiny until i get bored again.

We already proved a point lol. Gang bang? Working together? What else is MULTIplayer for?? And one shot? Do you have low health? Smh. Good job bungie one small dlc that wasn't cut from the base game got people back to playing this game. Too bad there's still lag, no dedicated servers, a terrible damage referee and not balanced/fixed guns (doctrine and tlw) also I'm guilty of using those two so I'm not salty that I got killed by them. There's no difference in their "balance/Nerf"

I like both. Haven't played division enough to have a real opinion though.

10 RepliesI actually did a very in depth review on my website about the division. Went into great detail about mechanics of the game and so forth.. If you want to read the entire review I'll copy pasta it in the spoiler.. It's a long read but an accurate review of the Division [spoiler]💩 [/spoiler]

They butchered incursion Didn't fix glitches. Even yet Dailies too easy Challenging is too hard with randoms No reason to do incursion reg or challenge when u can just grind dailies 4 mats & gear

Just like everyone said about WoW for years, claiming game after game would kill it. The only thing that can kill WoW, is itself. The only thing that will kill Destiny, is itself.

They thought they were jumping off a sinking ship. They didnt realize that the ship that they are jumping into was the actual sinking ship.

Edited by Shrektastik: 4/27/2016 11:08:07 PMI love how those posts have stopped yet we still find new ones like this being made. I believe this is the tenth one I've seen. For a game that is so bad, you sure haven't forgotten it.
