Felt like i was playing again the spiderman games on playstation 1 and 2.
Reminded me of the good old times when life and games were pure and simple.

No bugs, no multiplayer's toxicness. Just you and the game...

EA decided to make this game free to play. That's the appreciation EA gives to it's customers.

People who payed to play and own it did not actually receive any compensation!

And let's not mention about the extraterrestrial prices of the dlcs...

Not great, not terrible...

Thank you for giving the game for free Ubisoft (twice so far), while i payed more than this game deserves!! Well done!! I 'll make sure to buy your next big hit... i promise!! Keep making fun of your customers...

Best Regards,
Mr. Fool

If you wish to see about the gameplay of the game, check the thousands of Youtube videos about it. I won't talk about it. I will tell you whether it is good or not a few days after the release of the 1.6 patch.

The PvE game until Level 30: It's the game of my dreams! Amazing environment, perfect creation, great execution! Ubi did an astonishing job in this part! During this period you will enjoy every part of the game!!!

The PvE game from Level 30 and on and the PvP game: A complete letdown. Repeat, repeat, repeat over and over again. Do the same stuff all day long. Nothing new to see here. In 1.5 it was pretty good though for a fanboy like me and had the lights to become better. There was some balance and based on the feedback we were getting, the Devs were supposed to rebalance it in a more ideal way. They failed...

In the DZ (Dark Zone) you will get plenty of disconnections now, big lags, big frame drops or game crashes. The cheaters are a daily subject among the community now as they are increasing in numbers. With the 1.6 update, there is absolutely no chance to stand as a solo player against a companion of enemies. Not even if you have stacked up health with your equipment, if just the enemies have stack up Skill Power, you are screwed.

The quality in overall is dropping.

The New DZ areas are "empty" in comparison with the previous ones and they are not as big as the Devs were saying. By "empty" i mean there are less NPCs than in the previous areas, less loot, less places with importance.

The new Incursion mode is a fine addition as it came up for free. After playing it though, i got thinking: How is it different from the Underground DLC? I mean if you compare both, they are nothing but a new Incursion mode. So why the one comes as a paid content and the other one comes for free?


Verdict

At the current state the game is a big disappointment.

- DPS (Damage per Second) has been wrongly "replaced" from the Skill Power (Skill Power become more important is what i mean),
- Balance... What balance???
- Cheaters ... are a daily habit now. The same Flash Gordon cheat i saw 7 months ago is still in the game.
- Disappointing new content
- Wrong direction and no sign that the community is being heard
- The game turned from a PvE supportive title to a PvP supportive title. If you don't have a couple of friends to play with and you like to roam around solo and enjoy a few hours of your favorite game alone, then The Division is not a game for you.


If you wish to pay 25-50 Dollars for 50 hours until you have seen everything in the game then go ahead and get it. That's the maximum time you will be able to play as a solo player.
However if you have at least 2 more friends and would like to roam around as a team then you can reach up to 250-300 hours.
If you don't mind cheaters flying like Superman, running like Flash Gordon or shooting like Chuck Norris, then you will be able to play PvP. If you mind them and don't like to meet them at least once every 2-3 days, then you won't be able to play PvP.


"So Mr.Reviewer, is it worth?"

At the current stage? No! If you were able to get the game back to 1.5 somehow, then Yes!

------------------------------------------

The DLCs:

Underground -> Yes and no. If it is under 10$ in a sale, get it. If not, it's not worth it as you don't get nothing but 3 new small "maps" where you play with disadvantages against the Al. Offers better loot and the ability to get it faster and safer than in the DZ but that's just it.

Survival -> 100% Yes! Get it instantly even at full price!!!

The Last Stand -> 100% No! At this stage it's a pure pile of trash! Nothing new, tiny difference from the Dark Zone environment and feeling, thus no point in getting it. If you are a solo player, don't even think about it.

Well probably the best survival game out there...!!

Although it's still on early access this game has many hours to offer, without bugs or any fps drops. Nice graphics, absolutely realistic enviroment and many other features that compose this game, puts up a truly fun and at the same time interesting gaming experience.

DayZ in Minecraft mode.

For a free game, it's amazing
