My First Playthrough Of The Division 2 - Post Apocalyptic Gameplay - Part 1

[@mihaic1647]

Four years after the initial release and it still have amazing graphics, satisfying combat and a fantastic post apocalyptic open world to explore. The game also features an epic soundtrack, lot of amazing and intense missions, huge replay value.

They need to make games like that with that amount of polish

Nothing beats NYC in the snow, at night, Div 1 had those magical moments

[@fateschallenge]

Welcome to the world of division my friend. Once you start you can never go back 🤪

[@priestguardian2587]

To date the single BEST looter shooter on the market even though some tried their best to unseat UbiSoft

[@koroRyu]

Idk if I’m just dumb or what but I don’t really understand what to do on this game lol

This game takes on another meaning for me as I was born and raised in this city

I'm playing through the first Division again because of your series, booted it up and had over 46 million dollars. Let's just say buying equipment and staying at the top isn't an issue. Thankfully in this game you're not stupidly buying all the best stuff. You actually get drops that are better than vendor items (mostly). Also the attachment system is 100% better as you never have to strip old weapons or lose the attachment when you break them down or sell. Once you unlock a mod you have unlimited quantities for your weapons. No bag space required!

[@sopwithpuppy]

You can "cancel" your deployment of the drone (or turret if that is your selection) by holding down "Q" (or "E" if that is what key you use to deploy it). It will prevent you from running about with it gradually running out of juice. When you finish your combat, press and hold "Q" and the drone/turret will deplete, then you will need to wait until the "cooldown" period expires before you can re-deploy it. It saves you wasting the drone battery whilst you are running to your destination, and the drone consequently shutting down when you are in a firefight. Use it when you NEED it, not all the time. (See the help tip at 50:30 "Hold E or Q while your skill is active to dismantle it").

[@priestguardian2587]

such real enviromental effects / smart AI / quality side quests along side a great main mission with plot twist / tough boss fights towards the end of campaign / very deep technical crafting and gear optimization .......whats not to love in this game

[@mihaic1647]

Right

[@KiLLJOY1056]

Bro the shooting is total ass. You can’t even look down a red dot sight. You get this big giant ugly crosshair. No thanks, I uninstalled only because of this.

[@King_DTA]

@Brian Menard man I have been telling you all about Division 2 when I was a Division 2 twitch streamer over a year ago when you were into SOD2 hardcore !! 😂I’m so happy your playing it finally ! I Remember telling you about it and you had heard about it but didn’t know anything about it or ever played it , this has me stoked !!!

[@MarineBand5524]

I’m not sure PC have the same settings But look and see if you have Under Game play Addition field of view - increase all the way to 25 Additional field while aiming - increase to 25 Under UI Scrolling combat text - change to Floating

[@Mindrax]

Great game. I started Division 1 again and enjoys it immensely. Going to start Division 2 again later on.

[@tamasati2857]

I so love this game!!! The best, ever!

[@tamasati2857]

Also part 1

[@BrotherStephan]

I am about to start my D2 gameplay tonight for my first playthrough.

[@spiritwolf1953]

wow i remember doing all these shootouts thanks brian just like playing them again with you

[@rockbuildaz7115]

Danm that rain looks so good.

[@priestguardian2587]

2nd comment because I actually watched it again / only game/streamer I have ever done that = Best game/streamer ever FACT. Everyone plays this game different but I always put 'Lucky' Talent on my rifles to recover all shots fired that miss the target while under cover. Allows you to just spam the trigger without reloading / knowing all those bullets will hit the target before a reload

[@LaidBackAssassin]

Thanks! I might have to buy this game 😎

[@BrianMenard]

Thank you so much you are to kind

[@truewilliams7118]

I love this game man

[@Angiolelli_1]

Great game man! You got urself a new sub. I've been playing since the release and still is so fun!

[@nickwhite5119]

I love this game it amazing its well-built graphics are amazing. The story is great. I'm hoping a Davison 3 on the way

[@ginabean317]

Have fun!! This was my husband's and I go to for awhile , have fun co-op for so long. You make me want to jump in again.

[@baltasargamingshow3205]

welcome to the Div2 family bro. Just subbed XD I highly recommend you to get into the comics and books since you will be able to get deeper into the lore. Also it will make sense to know who are the 3 agents on the cover of the game. Enjoy!

[@BrianMenard]

Thanks for the sub!

[@terencebowlen1450]

Just a note, started watching this and wanted to point out, Odessa isnt a division agent, she was JTF officer then was given the role of leader of the theatre district

[@zylon32]

Love this game the builds are brilliant each piece can make or break your build

[@squaddie67]

Best to dismantle your drone when you're not using it. That way, when you do need it, you can deploy it and have a full timer on it. Also, if you're trying to move into a good position to initiate a firefight, if you have the drone up already it can give your position away.

[@carrytheflag3498]

I could not possibly love the division 2 more than I do already. It's brilliant, and you're jumping in at an amazing time. There's a brilliant stack of exotics that you can dive right into, right off the rip. Cheers all!

[@midway7monster792]

I love the Soundtrack for Division 1 but Division added a Metal feel and to this metal head, I give 👍👍

[@MarineBand5524]

NY got hit hard by a Hurricane in the game. It’s different but I like it. When buying new gear you can hit G and it will bring up what you’re currently wearing/using so you can easier choices to buy.

[@leonardorichard4534]

hey man you should really consider coming back to this game !! year 6 is around the corner and all your progress is saved . idk if u ever will but in my humble opinion! you should

[@BrandonGavin_EDC]

Brian you got that super chat for the sour cream dip but you better make sure Freya gets those pink cookies dad!

[@BrianMenard]

🤣🤣🤣

[@thundercy]

Both are great games but for some reason Division 1 is my favourite of the 2

[@erwaldox]

Yeah everything in Div 1 is better than 2

[@Cranium1210]

This game is visually stunning.

[@Pedro.Chapps]

makes me want to play again,

[@FlankerB3]

I still love both games!

[@Lee-o1o6g]

The Drown should show what's around the corner, 😊

[@troyrarehale2517]

Once you get to lvl 40 this game has a legit hardcore perma death more, if you die your character get deleted.

[@sidisidahmed755]

my first game ever was division 1 , i liked it too much i had to stop playing to be able to get my college degree . Now i have my college degree and i saw this video , man you woke up so many good memories , im buying for sure , but i want pvp more , is dark zone still full of people ? thank you

[@brokenbracket]

Hey Brian, there's a shotgun you're gonna wanna get as soon as you get to New York in the Warlords of NY DLC. It's called The Scorpio. It applies elemental damage and CC. Best shotgun in the game. I pretty much never ran with another secondary weapon once I got it. There's a few different ways to get it, so take a minute to do a quick Google search. Trust me, it's well worth it.

[@Noblemight]

A tip someone gave me about the game. turn off HDR so your game doesn't look washed out.

[@spiritwolf1953]

U hope you go back to Division 1 you have not even touched or seen westside pier enjoying this tho its great !!

[@Abband0n]

I dont know how but I got to play a ton of Division 2. It was pretty awesome and its bringing it all back seeing you play through it lol. Some of your gunfights were really beautiful to watch since you switch camera alot and move around cover so well. (cept that spot where you got stuck in a dark corner lol). Yeah its hard picking a gun to main when they are all good!! Ultimately you realize the gear and levels is all just meaningless garbage. You cant take your super high level agent and gear and goto an area where the enemies are weaker and just one shot everything. No matter how strong you get the enemy just keeps pace with you. Dark Sectors/pvp I got no love for. Co-op is a little bit hard to do if you dont have voice. I think the host can mark stuff but I think you can also fast travel and get seperated. People can start/do missions without you being there lol. ?? I dont know its been awhile. Im not an online gamer though and for playstation this requires ps+ so thats why i stopped. I gotta see if I baught Division2 or of it was a ps+ monthly game? haha. I took screenshots of my character and still have them.

[@Robbini0]

Appearantly, you can only trade items you've looted while in a group with that person and within 1 hour of getting them. Which is a pity, as I had originally planned to give some good gear. And you're gonna love all the Suicide RC cars you're gonna fight throughout the game. There's actually atleast one benefit to grouping with someone higher level atleast once. You can fast-travel to all their unlocked safehouses and thus unlock them for yourself without having to slog your way there. Not sure if it'll work the same for control points they've captured but you haven't. As for the sidearms damage... At level 30, my best snipers are slightly over 40k I believe. I've got a pair of sawn-off double-barrel shotguns that are 64k, no idea their actual damage in combat is, but considering my sniper headshots do 60k+ and these are supposedly atleast half more... Also, you should check out the perks you can unlock in the White House. There's inventory capacity up to 150 which you might find very useful atleast. And right now my setup is an M60 and a Mosin-nagant sniper decked out in christmas decorations, a legendary named version. I used and would use a Stinger LMG, which has a silencer and 200 rnd mag if I could find a legendary one , so if you think the M60 is disgusting...

[@johnlombardo7816]

So I gotta say... I downloaded the game, and periodically go back to it over the last couple of months.. the gameplay/graphics etc are great dont get me wrong.. but even from the first mission it just seems like you are just doing the same thing over and over, am I wrong? I am playing solo(no one I know games at all really) so it is just me and the missions.. I do enjoy walking the streets and just getting into shootouts.. but i have a hard time really figuring out what to do with the loot you pick up, which one is better, what to sell etc.. is that part of the issue? I am really writing to know, am I just missing something ? I get how this game could be great, but I don't see it being as well liked as I have heard it is just as the game is as of now.. can someone help me out here? any feedback is appreciated, I am sure I just am not grasping something. As always though, love the vids brian!

[@bigrock9637]

Dont shoot deers in Division 2, its an unwritten rule... ;)

[@joshakaoger69]

The amount of weapon loot you get then you see what everyone has like there should be a weapon donation box you put everything not needed into it and goes straight to the base and they get better shiz ... I'm playing the 1st and updating the base I walk out and still bs weapons like iv turned in and sold tons where they go 🤷🤨

[@spiritwolf1953]

don't forget SHD TEC

ya bro! now we're cooking with butter!!! lol...Div 2 is fkng phenomenal

[@joshbreaux5475]

How hard are these games for a slow casual gamer to play? Was thinking of picking these up for my xbox...just got back to gaming after 6 years.

[@MarineBand5524]

So the normal assault turret in D2 is better. You can have it aim and choose specific targets and you can pick it back up.

[@judeabrigo278]

I cant open that door for some strange reason :(

[@louisnwosu7186]

Bro didn’t just “grab anybody”

[@MoostardxCoffee]

So is all the green splatter supposed to be blood?

[@djsnipes364]

Turn off HDR it screws up streaming only when it comes to Division 2.

[@Hampton4tablets]

I love this game 😊😊😊

[@TNTboyz1997]

I missed the stream for part 1 😢

[@henrymatthews9365]

Lol don't know what the handguns are for. I'll show you my desert eagle full shield armor build to tank world tier5 enemies . Whenever your ready👍

[@spiritwolf1953]

this is so different from Div 1

[@priestguardian2587]

I think so only because there is more everything in Div2

[@АлександрМарголин-о7л]

Cool Game

[@spiritwolf1953]

can not watch live time difference in UK

[@ryolacap]

Division would have been really cool with zombies

[@spiritwolf1953]

you will need to team up

[@Netty7787]

Is this a new update

[@aresgod5113]

Hi I don't play many games, I am looking for a new one, I only play Godfall and Outriders, is this similar to Outriders or much more complicated?

[@BrianMenard]

I have never played those games so I have no clue

[@DiagolonRider]

i would've liked to watch this live while playing some Div 2 my ownself but put i a 13 hour day and now it's too late to do anything lol

[@priestguardian2587]

I jump on Div 2 just for 1 hr at a time daily because I miss the enviroment and how the game feels so alive / escape reality for a minute

[@johnligon2368]

The music sounds a little like Stranger Things

[@jakerazmataz852]

I don't think I saw you get hit once. WTF.

[@АлександрМарголин-о7л]

Hello bro

[@CosmicPilgrim48]

Wait untill he plays in legendary 😂😂😂

[@BigHittt]

I skipped ZeRo adds today 😉

[@BrianMenard]

thank you !!

[@majinboo6377]

division 2 pve is better than 1 but the endgame stuffs like pvp is pure garbage compared to div 1 pvp.

[@erwaldox]

And movement is terrible in Div 2

[@TheRedStateBlue]

game's cool. community sucks. most don't know how to play it. and get used to the shotgun... best weapon in the game is still Scorpio. also, get in the habit of hitting R whenever you aren't shooting.

[@spiritwolf1953]

Guns in Division 2 are way better the DIv 1

[@nonyabusiness2041]

Gameplay looks like shit, graphics aren't what it's all cracked up to be.

[@a.i.privilege1233]

F this game

[@joshakaoger69]

Was looking at new games cheap on Amazon looked this up then some videos and it's was like $25 for both so 🤷 playing the 1st one now it's amazing other than the weather is always bs 😂 just trying to unlock the last 2 safe houses aka sneaking past high levels is fun and looting the high level areas for goodies 😎🤌 2nd looks like huge improvement I can't wait

[@waynekelly2121]

The game was ok until you get finished the campaign and then after that you realize how buggy and bad the game is. Good luck .
