    Finally a content creator that speak the truth and not sticking their head into the butts of Massive and Ubisoft. Season 2.0 is just sucks, it`s so artificial, you don`t have shared resources, they force you to play with certain gear in LOOTER game, strips you from the story (main reason to play when you already have everything else). And give you NOTHING in return.
    Also, I like how they answer to question about the reason to having a main character anyway with basically NOTHING. They say so vague and worthless things just to shut us up.
    Basically, this FAQ is just FuсK You

    The games 6 years old at this point. People have what they want, they just want to jump in and use the builds they have or tinker around with new gear for a few weeks that comes out each season. That’s how long it takes to get the new brands and named pieces with the rolls you want, 4/5 seasonal exotics are undesirable anyways. The story is null and has grasped at straws in recent seasons, so at this point new gear is the content people want..
    This seems like a cheap way to release a “new game” or at least an attempt to give us the experience without developing it.

  • @NYLCasualGaming
    @NYLCasualGaming 2 месяца назад +2

    Thanks for the shout out mate. One minor point that I am not certain on. The presentation and FAQ were not completely clear on this, but I think that the only seasonal content that your main can do is the climax mission. One final orgasm of excitement, a chance to shoot all over Keeners or Kelso's face, at the end of the season I guess. The way I think it will work is that that weekly scouts, which lets be honest will be projects with a voice over, will be dropped one per week for the first 15 weeks for your seasonal character to complete. At the end of the season, the climax mission will be unlocked - it didn't say if you need to complete all of the previous weeks scouts for this to happen or whether it unlocks automatically though. The bit that is unsaid is whether you can complete all the weekly scouts in one go at the end of the season (with your main), or whether they are time based / locked like most of the projects are.
    Great video, well presented and argued points. Did not know about the incursion 802 and that is so disappointing that they have decided to dump it, presumably for seasons.

  • @_Smile_Today
    @_Smile_Today 2 месяца назад +3

    This games has shown that if devs don’t have a clear vision or understanding how to balance things it’s going to be a mess and players shouldn’t waste their time on them. The Brooklyn DLC is going to add even more issues, my reason for saying this is players will run into the stash issues cause dlc’s should introduce new weapons and gear, people are already at the cap and need space but devs said they’re not giving us anymore. since they’re introducing this new season system why would anyone want to participate in the dlc if main characters don’t mean anything but then if go back on the seasons 2.0 when the dlc comes out it just proves it was a waste of time. I personally think this seasons 2.0 is prep for for a new level cap.

  • @calbritbrown

    Hi DOD, I think the seasons will ONLY be doable using the seasonal character, even in the last 2 weeks you will not be able to use the main ones to do it (except for the "climax" mission).
    I also think that you will be able to do the season in 1 or 2 weeks and the rest ... play your regular / main characters doing ... golden bullet an the like, outside of the season progression or play your seasonal character to upgrade and tweak your newly acquired gear and weapons.

Same why I won't play seasons and stick to my main char, unless they'll introduce gear exclusive to seasonal drops, then I just nope out completely and stop playing. Story and cosmetics I can bare being locked behind seasons, not gear tho(or maybe add it to the general loot pool after season end?).

    Know how long it will take rng to drop, the 15 weeks will go by before you even get decent roles of what you need on the gear you need.
    Every time i deleted a character, i would take the gear to my stash, saved so much time. I also rarely ever boosted my characters.
    15 hours the fastest i ran from level 1 to 40 with watch, the next run ran about 20 hours.

    People need to move on from division 2, because maybe then that the devs will give some actual NEW content.. Not the some season garbage, no.. Actual new content.. Like c'mon, this game has been out for 5 years by now.. When is the last time they actually did put in the effort to release new stuff.. Seasons have been here for so long that i can't remember when there was actual content... The seasonpass itself has pretty much nothing to offer, the last time where i even bought one was when it had the black/red hunter outfit with the bloodied mask in it..
    Meanwhile they released a bunch of fomo outfit bundles that they are now trying to sell to us again (As they reintroduced the recruiter one) just to get some pocket change here and there, these outfit bundles should've been behind ingame unlocks.. Take the recruiter one, that should've 100% been a reward for beating that final recruit mission on the highest difficulty (Aside of being able to buy the outfit bundle).

Also, I hate using rifles/shotguns in this game specially how spongy NPCs are, they are as twice tiring to spamming clicks unlike ARs/LMGs. I'd rather play this game than those new games that took the dev's time and effort which should have been in the Division in the first place. Im not falling to the scheme wherein I will be sway to play a new/about to be released game because of this "Season 2.0 BS". Lastly, why would the reason a player to gain more XP if in the end it will be capped and then become (intentionally) worthless and not utilized accordingly.

    thought 2: I'm mixed on the whole one endgame. I hate it because there is no lvl 30 DZs (for farming exotic components) anymore and almost all the WONY is free. I love it because more players are able to matchmake those contents.

    Ever since they shipped Sacrum with the exact same things broken as was broken on it in the PTS, I've become incredibly skeptical that they can ship things without it breaking spectacularly. The "one endgame" update introduced constant control point resets, invaded missions not clearing upon completion and the only thing they shipped a fix for, a crafting max roll exploit. Any reason to trust them to not accidentally ship an account wiper bug simply does not exist.

    Assuming new gear/exotics are locked to the season track until the end, and if it something good, it sounds like you'll need to use a seasonal character if you want to play with them until the season ends and they'll presumably enter the general loot pool. At least if they let you 'graduate' early, like BDO, then you could get the new stuff and immediately withdraw it on main.
    Also, the thing you said about the intermission is it states that starts after the season ends so you won't be able to roll up then and blitz the season track. If the season is truly over by then then it sounds like the only thing you'll have access to is the climax mission (so you can just do this and it completes the whole manhunt?) and whatever your season guy put into the shared stash.
    I don't get the complaints about WONY. It has been long enough. Charge a minimal fee for the whole thing. We need more players. I don't care if they get it for next to nothing.

    the new difficulty mode is gonna be them spamming grenadiers, turret guys, car chicks and overpowered red enemies......... By making you grind is the Ubisoft/ Massive MO... hence starting the watch levels AFTER the game came out.... Nobody should be surprised that they dont care is all Im saying....

    I will be just completing everything the last 2 weeks when I am not working I don't have time to be making a new character every 15 weeks I rather just use my main just speaking for myself but I'm pretty sure atleast half the player base will just wait it took me 2 days to complete the season track so it just better to wait tbh

    Can imagine they started the conceptional phase of Div 3 with this in mind and said "lets test it in Div 2 and how the playerbase receives it" and a year later we have this now. Still im openminded, i play several other Games with Seasons and if you get it right it can be fun for a while but after 8 years of not doing Season its madness to tell the playerbase to get used to it. Still have a liitle hope the DLC will have a Wintersetting but i know thats delusional.

    It's annoying that it effectively breaks the community in two camps who can't play with each other. We're definitely going to feel that in matchmaking queue times.

      That's a really good observation. If half the player base is on seasonal and half not, it completely invalidates their marketing spin of this is good for the entire community and will reduce queues.

    That master difficulty has me concerned if it happens to be harder than legendary. If it is, I feel we could be getting classified type gears in the game. So we players can have even more power in order to stand a chance of doing master difficulty. But at same time that will widen the gap of power level from new players and fully optimized players even more. In PvE Idk what could happen but in PvP. New players coming and fighting opponents will have much harder time, and getting to be on par with them could take weeks of grind. I could be wrong but this is how it is in Div 1, might have similar outcome in Div 2 as well.

  • @ai3985rghh

    Spot on mate. Couldn't agree more. TD2 devs hate the veteran players. We have been a thorn in their side for years. We are the ones that shine light on problems they'd rather ignore. There is currently a bug in the raids that makes it impossible to get good times anymore. The oxy damage glitch was the one thing I hoped would be fixed yesterday, but nope. Strats and mechanics that have worked for years are gone. Times will never be near what they were. Devs don't care, because only a tiny fraction of players are speed runners. Historically, veteran players don't feed the development coffers. I haven't given Ubisoft a cent since I bought the game nearly 6 years ago. For years their focus has been on new players who will purchase DLC and cosmetics. We are just squatters to them. They literally are implementing a system that will separate the troublemaking veterans from the micro-transaction newbies. Console games aren't made for long term playability. Development costs go out while little or no sales money is coming in. 6 years is crazy long for a console game. A subscription based service like WoW is the only way to make TD2 great again. No money coming in means no content/fixes going out. The seasonal character is a ploy by UBI to make some money off new players and hopefully hold our attention and sustain the game until TD3. I'm having none of it. I bought a gaming PC and have been enjoying games like GZW and BodyCam instead. I hope Seasons 2.0 is good, but we all know it's gonna be trash.

    Tbh I’m done with division til they release a new one. 5yrs out of a game is a decent life, Mayhaps it’s time to look at division 3 or dare I say a spin off. Cause even a spin off is better than constantly adding to the clusterfuck that is this mess.
    Edit - for those who are gonna tell me their opinion about how this is good and they’re doing good work.
    I’ll say this preemptively so as not to waste your time or mine.

    On the Ubisoft store they did remove the option to just buy the base game, for whatever reason steam hasn't changed. However, I don't get being upset about the one-endgame thing. I got WoNY for free because it was on sale two years ago, did you hate it then? Just seems like an odd reason, things always change in price, and now it's basically free, what's the problem with that?

    What makes me angry is when people tell me just don't play the seasonal characters... yup, when everyone is running seasonal legacy characters, matchmaking will be none existent and I enjoy matching in division 2 doing random missions. I quit destiny 2 over the game feeling like I need to play the game exclusively to make progress and heavily punished for taking a break and playing another game. I'm not going to say that division 2s progression is bad. But for me the meat of these games is buildcrafting once at max lvl. Not the game is gonna be 90 percent chores just to get somewhere where I was last season... I'm worried bro.

    Apparently, according to RogueGold, Warlords is now bundled in when you buy D2. No idea of pricing but this should’ve been the ONLY thing they did. It’s all that was needed to have One Endgame.

    • @RCMizK3w1
      @RCMizK3w1 2 месяца назад +1

      The point was to eliminate the split playerbase and open endgame to everyone who purchased the game. Don't really have a problem with that, they've basically given the DLC away for free for years now and just formalized it. But they're still keeping the actual content of the DLC exclusive to those who own it. I don't really have a problem with that. If people are upset that something they paid $30 for 5 years ago is now sort of free there are much bigger problems.

    • @andygreener3130

      @@RCMizK3w1 Oh I agree. It should’ve part of an original purchase from maybe 12 months after the DLC came out.
      I picked the game up for £5 and bought the DLC for £15. I have no issue with everybody paying an amount for access to level 40. Those that already own D2 without the DLC will still have to buy it, those that buy into the franchise now for the first time will effectively be forced to buy it, which isn’t a bad thing.
      This was the only move the devs needed to make though. The rest of the seasonal character crap is, well, crap.

    You're not "starting again" on a seasonal character; you're playing a toon in parallel for a relatively short time. "Starting again" would imply that your main character and all your precious loot is gone.

    I think I would rather grind my characters up level 50 than do this seasonal bs . Ubisoft should have asked the community what they needed to do in the game to make it more interesting for the player base . Think the devs have really lost the plot on year 6 seasonal stuff . Like you said will probably do the last 2 weeks of the seasons on my main characters

    I have been playing this game for almost 5 years and all these changes that they did so the new players feel at the same level we are is just BS.
