Tl;Dr:
- 1. Das Spiel rockt hart.
- 2. Kleines Indi Entwickler Studio
- 3. Hat ein paar Probleme durch einen unerwarteten hohen Spieler Ansturm - Siehe Punkt 1
- 4. Die Devs sind in 24Std Schichten an Lösungen am arbeiten.
- 5. Solo ja, aber primär auf Coop ausgelegt
- 5. Kein P2W und alles was im Shop angeboten wird, kann man sich auch ohne großen Grind inGame erspielen.
- 6. FOR DEMOCRACY hat sich noch nie so gut angefühlt


Ein kleines Indi Entwickler Studio wird überrannt durch den nicht erwarteten Erfolg ihres Spiels mit der Auswirkung, dass zur Zeit über 300.000 Spieler gleichzeitig auf die Server wollen. Das spürt man (in Europa) dann auch, wenn man sich nach 18:00 einloggen möchte und die Server Slots bereits vergeben sind. In der US Primetime ist das glaube ich noch spürbarer. Eine Queue gibt es nicht, so muss man hoffen, dass zu der Zeit in dem man sich einloggt, oder der automatische re-login greift, gerade ein Slot frei geworden ist. Bisher muss ich sagen, hatte ich nur einmal ein "Server voll" Problem und kam sonst immer gegen 19:00 rein.

Ist man dann einmal drin, wartet man auf sein Freunde, die zur Zeit entweder nicht reinkommen oder nicht inGame in der Freundesliste angezeigt werden. Aber auch das konnten wir bisher immer lösen, in dem wir über Steam Freundesliste der Lobby eines Freundes beigetreten sind.
Solo kann man zwar spielen, aber das Spiel ist klar auf Coop ausgelegt und da fängt es dann an richtig hart zu rocken. Ein Match dauert ca. 15-30min, abhängig von der Mission und Schwierigkeitsgrad. Matchmaking mit Randoms funktioniert seit dem Massen Ansturm nicht mehr richtig, genauso wie einem Random seine Mission beizutreten, da vermutlich bei der Server Skalierung noch das eine oder andere gerade gezogen werden muss. Wir haben eine Gruppe von Freunden, die quasi jeden Abend spielt und wir haben selten so viel Spaß gehabt.

Das Spiel selber läuft ziemlich flüssig auf höchster Grafik Einstellung mit meinen Specs (uralt CPU):
- Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz
- 32Gb RAM
- RTX 4070 Ti 12Gb

Ich glaube man kann sagen, dass ein Großteil der derzeitigen Probleme auf der Server Last und den Bemühungen, die Server hoch zu skalieren beruhen. Denn vor dem riesen Ansturm, lief alles ziemlich reibungslos.

Die Dev´s sind zur Zeit in 24Std. Schichten an den Problemen am arbeiten und bringen fast täglich Updates raus und kommunizieren dabei transparent mit der Community.

Ich kann das Spiel wirklich empfehlen. Wer jedoch ein absolut uneingeschränktes fehlerfreies Spiel erwartet, sollte vielleicht den Ansturm noch abwarten und etwas später einsteigen. Für alle Helldiver da draussen:
Schnappt euch ne Tasse Liber Tea und verbreitet Democracy :)

I do respect everyones opinion here, but my personal impression of the game, having played closed and open beta prior to the release, I am actually very pleased with the game.
I have 17.5 hrs on record for the release and I am lvl10 at present.

I haven´t enjoyed a game such as this one for a long time. I have to say tho, that due to real life engagements and other hobbies I attenent to, I have grown to be somewhat of a casual gamer. And here is where this game scores in my opinion. I love to play with other people, yet I like to play on my own as well, If I just want to hop in for an hour or two.

I´d like to see The Division more of a single player with Coop, I can play in Coop with friends on a casual sunday gaming afternoon, without abandoning the actual plot I have played on my own. Not like in many games such as FarCry or Battlefield, where Coop is just treated as a stepchild and you feel they only implemeted it, well, because they had to.

The grafics are absolutly stunning and play fluend with settings maxed out, with fps between 40-60 (caped at 60fps), then again I have an evga 980 GTX and Skylake i6700K, only a month old since I build it.

Probably because I am more of a casual gamer nowadays, I have not felt, that the game was becoming to repetative. Sure you have to kill enemies on most of your missions, but I don´t now many MMO´s which are not like, collect this, find this, kill so many of those. An exeption is "The Secret World" to me, which I find exeptionally well done.

I personaly can recomend the game. I have had much fun, playing in groups or alone and I think I will return to this game many of times, for a good coop or just to hop in for a couple of hours or so on my own, or just wandering through New York and enjoy the setting.

I guess for engaged MMO´lers, this game will not live up to the expectations of an true MMO. But for me, it is defintetly one of the games I have been enjoyning the most, for a long time. As good titles have become very rare nowadays.

It´s a promising fresh game. It feels a bit like Borderlands and Fallen Earth in one.
Good Grafix.
Pretty grindy at present, but fun to play with friends.
Even tho the game seem to have been around for a long time,
it seems that the dev´s are close to the community and constantly
changing things. PvP has been taken out to be revamped and re- introduced.
World Events used to be a lot more present in the game.

First of all I have to say, I love immersive HOTAS/Joystick games.This games grafics are very nice and flying is a Joy.

However, I am massivly being put off, by the advantage mousplayers have over Joystick players, sure there is a nice "realistic Mode" but this is more of a Hardcore mode as there are no more visuals for Targets. It would have been nice, to have seen an Joystick only mode for Arcade or Simulation Modes also. I get that there don´t seem to be enough players, to sign up for battles with pure joysticks, as there is hardly enough these days, to sign up for regular battles. This is ofc just a personal opinion and certainly not gamebreaking.

Nevertheless, which puts me off the game the most, are the many exploits used in game, i.e. Aim Bots. Search in Youtube and one will find many videos on it. This has become much of a pain playing this otherwise quite decent game.

About the new patch everyone is writing about recently, I cannot comment about, because I have stopped playing this game because of above reasons.

So for my summary:
This is a beautifull game, to fly around.
If you want to participate in the competition this game has to offer, you will quickly be put off by the heavy use of Aim bots and the likes.
No "Joysticks" only mode other then for hardcore "Realistic Battles"

Early Access Review
If you are into Mechs, liked EvE, but want more player WASD interactions and not just warp, orbit, trigger, this is the game for you. Best Sandbox Game, with epic battles.
