Fucking Division 2 devs are at it again. Apparently they decided that time limiting the xmas projects as a whole wasn't enough, so they also made it so that for one of them you require an NPC, who only spawns at specific times of the in-game day. So if you're not around at that exact time, or if you get fucked with other shit in the area breaking his spawn, too bad come back in an hour or so and try again. The worst part is the reward for this shit is the santa jacket we already got last year and you can't even skip the project if you already have it, because you have to complete every project in order to get the new shit.

I got into that same issue LMAO.
2 times I went at that spawn location during the night and the guy didn't spawn. I already have the Santa outfit but like you said, that step can't be skipped.

Looks like the maintenance mode devs are gonna try to show off their extra credit work tomorrow

No idea what a Health Update is but I bet is gonna break something when it drops.

I tried it a couple of times with my other characters and the guy doesn't spawn.

I don't know what it is supposed to fix, I mean there are way less freezes/crash.

Of course it will. The real question is on how badly broken and if it's at least funny. Kinda like how certain parts of the incursion being fucked up at launch seemingly confirmed a bunch of longstanding rumours about the devs.

I wonder as well. I know they said in one of their previous livestreams that they'd figured out the issues causing the crashing on PC, and that they were bringing on some Snowdrop specialists to fix. Seems like they've already done a good job because it's been literally months and months since I had the random crashing I used to get. Maybe they've been doing some general cleaning up under the hood so that they can maybe add the crumbs of content we get without them breaking it every time.
 
After the black samurai nothing surprises me about Wokebisoft. Just confirming that those execs that they ousted years ago were the ones keeping the retards in line.
I mean, you actually could do a fun game about Yauske since that dude was built like a brick shithouse and described as having the strength of three men. Granted, the game would be some Dynasty Warriors type thing where he's a good foot taller than all the Japanese he's fighting and just casually smashing them aside like mooks, but that's pretty much what Assassin's Creed has descended into anyways.

I'll be completely honest with you: I don't think Yasuke was that strong. I'm not even sure he actually existed, and if he did he took part in maybe one battle and was otherwise Nobunaga's pet curiosity. Don't let them WE WUZ you with this shit; Yasuke is already on par with Miyamoto Musashi as far as 'samurai' go in popular culture. That's probably by design.

Oh, sure, they were massively exaggerating about his strength, but you're also going too far the other way and going "Well, I don't know if this European traveler picked up a black bodyguard and assistant on his way to Japan" when that exact thing happened plenty of times. Hell, Wikipedia does its best to hide it in favor of pop culture nonsense but you can find mentions of contemporary writings about him. I don't know why a bunch of 1500's Jesuits would make up some bullshit about a black dude they brought with them.
 
Sounds good.

Also I finally managed to get that special NPC to spawn. You really have to be in the area at around 21h00.

Nice video, I try to think how there can be a good Avatar game and I'm drawing a blank. Like you can transplant a good game into the setting, but it's still putting a bow on a turd. There is no lore, no moral depth, nothing cool that didn't appear elsewhere, it's a setting that has been done to death.
 
Wow, they are gonna be supporting Division 2 with a planned DLC in 2025. Guess Heartland is really just gonna be dumped and keep this sucker limping along for a bit more time

I guess they finally understood that people want The Division 3 and not another dead-on-arrival extraction shooter.
 
Honestly the announcement was more than I expected (except for the DLC being delayed which I was absolutely expecting).
Rebalancing weapons, set bonuses and talents could be good, but I have zero faith in them not fucking it up somehow (just look at the absolute state of the new additions from the lat few seasons).

Reduced optimization costs is nice, and long overdue, but fucking annoying because we've literally been telling them it's overpriced and shit since day 1 of the PTS where they introduced it, and they've insisted it's fine.

Making projects more "interesting and worthwhile" could be good, but again based on past performance I doubt it.

Open world loot crate rebalancing makes zero sense because they're literally not worth the time and effort to open, even if they scale.

Why the fuck they're making Hollywood and Reanimated GEs even easier I don't know since they're already on par with, if not easier, than golden bullet with the right build. With the new changes they'll be the fastest/easiest xp grinds by an absolute country mile.
 
I wish they would allow the players to pick a level in The Summit once they have completed it. I don't want to start over just because I missed 2 items with one of my characters.

Excepted the zombie one, the Global Events in The Division 2 are always crap. I never enable them.

I do Reanimated, Hollywood and Golden Bullet, but specifically only for solo farming xp in the open world. I have a build for cheesing each one (not that GB needs much cheesing since it's literally just free damage), plus you get a metric fuckton of event stars for exotic caches. Other than that you're right they're kinda crap, and honestly watching gormless mongs who don't understand the mechanics trying to simply brute force their way through with their usual shit builds stopped being fun several seasons ago.
 
Tbh im here for Red. I'm sorry...
I actually liked Mirage. (Tho faves are brotherhood, black flag, syndicate, origins, and odyssey) Rogue was ok (loved the Lisbon part) but Shay was meh.

I just wanna race across rooftops jumping around as lady ninja tbh. And I am curious how they will adapt Nobunaga, Mitsuhide, Hideyoshi, Nouhime, etc. Oh and I better see oiran and brothels and the thing that goes doink.

I always thought it was interesting how Nobunaga slaughtering the monks (was it mount hei?) has never been covered in gaming like Samurai Warriors or even film and TV that I'm aware of. I assume it was because it was so inhumane. Will that be what causes conflict between him and Mitsuhide?
 
FarCry peaked at 4 and its been a fast, fast decline since then.
Far Cry peaked at Crysis.

The Mario Rabbids games were good. In fact Ubisoft's games are generally not bad, it's usually their services which are the issue. And Assassin's Creed. But these people have games out all the time, all over the place. How the fuck are they in such dire straits? Where's the money going, Yves??
