![]() It stays put where you fire it, and then it blows up when you tap the bumper again. Another is a grenade that you can fire off quickly just by tapping one of your bumpers on the controller. That will make you some friends during or after a firefight. One of the early special abilities is the capability of healing agents around you. You can go back to the base, restock your ammo, get better weapons, and attain special abilities. You earn points and loot with every mission completed. If you complete a mission to rescue an epidemiologist, you can upgrade the medical facility in your base. Once that’s done, you can go inside and see how much you can upgrade it. One of your first tasks is to liberate a base and then allow the forces of good to occupy it. Then you hear a gunshot in the distance, and it echoes off the buildings. When you first step into the city, everything seems empty. The real gameplay has been exciting at times during the closed beta. ![]() But over the course of the weekend, the beta was much more playable. On the first evening of the beta, the gameplay was a little choppy, and it reminded me that this was an always-online game. The action takes place in the third person, with you directly controlling the agent’s movement and shooting. ![]() The Division has to defend civilians and bring back order. government can no longer protect citizens. You play as an agent of the Division, a task force that comes online when the U.S. Chaos has ensued, with thugs taking over most snow-laden neighborhoods in the power vacuum. The Division is an online, open world, role-playing game set in New York City after a virus outbreak has wiped out most of the population and brought down the government. They seem so random, rather than scripted. It has almost no cinematics, or movie-like cut scenes, and encounters that you run into in the open world are not staged very well at all. It’s just that the slice that Ubisoft chose to show us from the game is really rather limited and emotionally flat. But even without big changes, The Division could well be entertaining. The final game comes out March 8, and Ubisoft has a little time to polish it. On the other hand, I’m not going to tell you not to play it. These flaws make playing the closed beta frustrating. It also has some annoying and strange design flaws, such as enemies that are effectively “bullet sponges,” meaning you have to shoot them an absurd number of times to bring them down, especially in the more difficult area known as the Dark Zone. The 3D graphics are pretty, but they’re not as awesome as we expected.
