I thought I was strong... I'm not, I pulled the trigger. So far I'm loving it, great presentation and plays great. I was afraid they wouldn't pull off a good atmosphere like they did with Division 1, but I'm surprised. The amount of level detail is impressive.

Thanks for setting all this up. Keeping this post in mind if I bite the bullet and start playing soon. The looter bug is strong.
you must finish the main story for the black tusk invasion to start
I'll just add to that: it really boils down to how good of a shot you are and your personal playstyle. For me, that 13k per shot bolt action marksman rifle with 7 bullets is about 4-5 one-to-two-shot kills given my aim. The bolt action allows me to do huge burst damage, popping out for merely a single second to kill someone and then going back into cover whereas I'd have to sit there exposed for much more time to fire off the equivalent amount of damage with an assault rifle (eg. a ~3k damage assault rifle of the same level would require 4-5 shots, and you might miss some from recoil or long range, so you really need 6-8 shots for equivalent damage). Another benefit of the high damage-low fire rate approach is that I only have to get a single skilled/lucky shot on a head or weakpoint to inflict devastating effects. Given recoil, it would be difficult to achieve the same consistent, critical damage with a more rapid fire weapon. I like to pair the bolt action rifle with a high damage shotgun for the same reasons: less exposure since I only need to fire one fatal shot instead of staying out of cover to fire several with recoil misses. I can do this because I generally don't miss very often. In contrast, if your aim isn't that good, it's much better for you to take a faster firing and reloading weapon.
NPCs will then focus on patrolling and taking on enemy units rather than scavenging for supplies.

Had a crazy bug playing co-op today. My teammate shot his shotgun and everyone heard the blast sound repeat forever. This game is fantastic but it has a lot of bugs on PS4 pro. Hope they fix them soon.
You should go. One time I was the only person that preordered a game and I got it fast, with no hassle.
I haven't preordered yet and it says online that my store doesn't have it in stock, that's one reason I don't want to go. I figured they just set it out on the shelves before the store closes and it won't show up listed in store until tomorrow but driving an entire hour seems lame to come out with nothing.
I'm pretty sure they don't put copies out at 9. I could be wrong tho. Call?
Experienced my first bug: during a mission there was an invisible enemy. You could tell it was one of those druggies that go berserk and charge you from the sounds (screaming, etc). It would follow me around, and if I stood still, show that he was right next to me given the minimap danger circle around me.
The guy I was with stood next to me and dropped a grenade at his feet. It killed the invisible enemy and suicided him.
So if you guys experience the same, that's the way to do it.
Does this have a darkzone equivalent? I liked that in the first.
Ignored pretty much everything about TD2 in preview.

With extracting? Those were some butt clenching moments in the first.
Haven't entered a DZ area yet. Wanna reach level 30 first
on PS4? shit is ruining the game at the moment, i´ve had 7 crashes today, all in the black tusk missions.
that is what happens when games have "betas" 14 days before the game releases, much too short of a time to fix the real issues...the whole technical stuff drags the PS4Pro version severely down, from pop in to crashes. the game is really good but tech stuff is annoying, it is really unpolished and not really well optimized.
this is one of the games where i wish i still had a beefy PC tbh
There is a skill to increase the range and add a special visual effect showing off loot containers if they control points are well supplied. It's a god send. To add to that, you will be DROWNING in mats even at the max upgraded cap if you are always exploring so do not be skimpy. Max those meters out for the xp because you will fill up again quickly.

ETA ~2 hours, 45 minutes for me. Hanging out in snowy NYC for one last boss run until then.
Edit: Quoting for Discord. Playing on PS4.

Ok thanks... I guess I should free up a control point lol
There something going on with Xbox one x version as well. Runs fine for about an hour and gets all choppy. Resetting Xbox fixes it but only temporary. Aside from that and the ugly NPCs having good time so far.
Yup! Still waiting here. AMD really cutting it down to the wire.
Not sure, but I think key drops are related to the sector you are walking around it. Usually it's mainly one faction gunning around in each sector and I/we only managed to find/get keys in the sewers. But it could also be random what kind of keys you get in the sewers. They are in different locations in the sewers (key cabinet on the wall).
I have two keys but can't recall where I've seen the boxes!
I played several hours today with zero issues. Tonight I got on and I have this bug, which let me tell you, makes soloing very frustrating. I usually run with a turret and turret drone so this was just awful.

Put turret down, watch it despawn, wtf? 10 sec cooldown. Put turret down again, watch it despawn. Try the drone. Oh, it despawned instantly. Yay.

Thanks! That's the input I was hoping for.
I haven't tried the flame turret - will it automatically fire at approaching enemies? It's says the operator needs to manually fire it?
I've been trying for a few hours and and haven't had the crash bug while using the drone.
Also, Y'all wish you had a bod like this.

Are you from The Shire?
I swear this game is cursed. When D1 came out I was enjoying it and then my ex-wife told me she wanted a divorce. Now I'm loving D2, me and my sons are in the game room enjoying ourselves and a tornado hits literally 200 yards away and destroys the power lines. I'm lot meant to play this game lol.
