There’s more than just man-shooting, gear-grinding, and collectible caps and parkas in The Division. Post-virus Manhattan is also filled with film and TV references, nods to pop-culture, and other Easter eggs (just in time for Easter). Here are some we found, and some others found, and where you can find them for yourself. If you’ve come across any we...
You’ve cleansed the Cleaners, gotten rid of the Rikers, and collected a steamer trunk’s worth of beanies on your journey to level 30 in The Division. Up next: getting numbers to go up higher. Through daily missions, crafting, and plenty of Dark Zone visits, the end-game for your Agent revolves around strapping on better and...
Me, not IRL. This weekend the World of Warcraft servers were overrun by enthusiastic idiots. I know this, because I was one of them. My fellow scrubs and I had been lured to Azeroth by Lady Liadren, a female blood elf. More specifically, by an offer from Blizzard’s marketing team that if we levelled any...
I like it when open world games shut up. I can enjoy maps pocked with points of interest and NPCs to do menial tasks for, but usually I just want to go do something impulsive and rash, to-do lists and quest logs be damned. So I started playing Black Desert Online hoping for some of...
Build a beautiful online world and you can be sure intrepid explorers will find a way to escape it. In this instance, efforts by members of the Division community have revealed locations which might hint to future DLC. Chaz leveraged a couple of wall glitches, including a convenient vault and liberal use of the Ballistic Shield, to...
Having sunk twenty-some hours into The Division over the last week, my feelings closely mirror those of our reviewer, James. Ubisoft’s looter-shooting shoot-n’-loot is beautiful, and has the fundamentals of a tactical action game down, but it’s repetitive and shallow to a fault. I’ve already stopped feeling the pull to keep playing: there are only...
Most of the The Division’s post-virus Manhattan is a PvE zone, where you and your team will only battle AI enemies. While playing PvE, the only place you’ll see see other players are in safehouses, where weapons and skills can’t be used against one another. The Dark Zone, on the other hand, is an area where you can participate...
Society has all but collapsed in The Division, but that doesn’t mean your agent’s wallet should suffer a similar fate. As you shape your character through crucial missions and exploring Manhattan’s car-strewn streets, you’ll pocket plenty of credits, the currency of choice for a post-green-paper culture. Credits form a necessary component of keeping your supplies stocked...
EverQuest Next, the successor to Sony Online Entertainment’s groundbreaking MMO EverQuest, has been cancelled. The bad news was revealed in a message posted by Daybreak Game Company President Russ Shanks, who said the studio had “set out to make something revolutionary,” but ultimately decided that it wasn’t going to work. “For those familiar with the...
Want to build yourself a great character in Tom Clancy’s The Division? While the MMO shooter doesn’t have traditional classes and you can swap skills and talents whenever you like, you’re probably still interested in playing a specific role on your team. We’ve put together some suggested character builds based on skills, skill mods, talents, and stats to help you...
