As others have stated it’s not like there’s a line of people waiting to hop into a 5+ year-old game, nor are there swathes of people who have been wanting to play but never did because it’s too complex. This isn’t Destiny.

[@PeopleRTheProblem]

Destiny is complex?

[@LoFoSho]

Destiny complex is the funniest thing I’ve heard. I think div 2 more complex. (At least build wise). And I have like 5,000 hours on destiny.

[@PeopleRTheProblem]

@@LoFoSho 5,000? Doing what? From destiny 1 to 2 I think I may have 300 hours total.

[@MEATOGRE]

This is the Division 2 for people that clearly weren't into the Division 2 the last 5 years. Definitely the crowd Ubisoft should be tailoring content for, not the devoted players that stuck through this trashfire game patch after broken patch, unfixed bug after unfixed bug. Fragile armor bug still exists, excited for new players to put the game down after dealing with that hour after hour.

[@douglasharmon5977]

My thought exactly fuck the 6 year daily player right

[@Alex-yv8ev]

Roguegold agrees with everything division does and makes it seem like all is well. I have yet to see him despise an upcoming change or decision by Ubisoft. Reminds me of a simp and I can’t take him serious anymore

[@ADISTOD3MUS]

​ Very few take him seriously anymore and the list is srinkin fast. He just drops these controversial videos for lame views since the only thing it is worried about is the game to run no matter what and in whatever state, even broken so he can milk 🍼​ it even more. @@Alex-yv8ev

[@h3rmesactual]

While I understand your point about "this is the Division 2 for people who weren't into it", you have to understand that new players need to be assisted in these long-term investment kinda games. Think about Destiny 2, another long-term game. It's incredibly unfriendly to new players. Anyone who hops into it now is met with a ~$200 paywall in order to catch up to the current players and tons of unexplained gear/weapons/story/items. It's been heavily criticized for being difficult and overwhelming for new players. I see this "One Endgame" as the devs trying to avoid the mistakes Destiny 2 made. Don't keep the "proper" endgame behind a DLC paywall. That's important. Bug fixes are important too, don't get me wrong, I agree that the slew of unpatched bugs and mistakes need to be corrected. When an armor kit doesn't remove my Broken Armor stack, it pisses me off. I want them to fix it. I also wanted them to remove the Lvl 30 endgame.

[@kamakrazi]

They opened it up, so they could limit it again with seasonal characters and trash all the work the hardcore division fans put into the game when no one else wanted to touch it.

[@McG_NJ]

No more liberty island ever

[@grumpyoldman6503]

nor Tombs, nor Pathway Park. Indeed something to celebrate! 🎉🥳 although the weekly projects still include them (seems a bit unfair to people that didn't buy WONY and are now 'unified', no?).

[@RogueGold]

🙌 Love hearing that! Thank you so much!

[@grumpyoldman6503]

RG- why not take time to highlight the bugs associated with this 'unified' end game? Namely that if you level in DC you don't have Projects open except for Descent, and the crafting bench bug where you can't upgrade to high end? It's not all sunshine and bunnies just yet. Or what about the consequences of some portion of the 'unified' player base that doesn't have WONY? Can Seasons use these assets or are they walled off? What about weekly projects, leagues, etc. that include WONY content?

[@RogueGold]

I covered many of the known bugs with this update in a recent video, and explained in there what steps I take to try and get those things reported/resolved off-camera, as I usually don't think it's incredibly productive to produce a bunch of bug videos when resources like the KIB exist 👉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZLMfIqfZ76UpMksi=VQwW73PFreOcoGpg They provided some info for how One Endgame impacts players without WONY in the recent Seasons 2.0 FAQ, it has its own dedicated section 👉 www.ubisoft.com/en-us/game/the-division/the-division-2/news-updates/1zLPLz9YsHDh806oFUUUhe/seasons-20-faq I have additional questions about how some of the inner-workings will shape out there, and one big concern about future content. I plan to make a video on that sometime next month when I get time

[@sfoeric]

Good news everybody (and that includes you Rogue): If you already own all the Descent blueprints going into creating a hardcore character, when you hit lvl 31 you can purchase from Inaya access to all of your shared resources AND blueprints. So although I am not getting the talents from my named items that I craft (for example I crafted myself a Liquid Engineer backpack) I am getting the other benefits. Just happy I am not going to have to unlock all my blueprints again.

[@grimhellraven1557]

The Division 2 has yet to be surpassed by any other game in the Looter Shooter Genre. At this point Ubi has perfected the exploration / combat / loot loop. It’s just too good. You want story/lore : you got it. Weapon / play style variety so you aren’t forced into a “ meta build”: check ! Pve content yup, PvP with extraction : hell yes! This game has no shortcomings and yet it stands as one of the most underrated games Ever.

[@jimquan9949]

As is true for most products for sale, but especially true for content based entertainment products like AAA video games, a game that intends extend its viability needs new player. In order to remain relevant to the owner of the IP, game titles need to show that they can retain and grow the player base. Without growth, the Division franchise will cease to exist. This whole new update is a brilliant way to create a streamlined path to new player engagement, while at the same time offer relevant changes to the game that will keep the existing player base engaged. Without the player base growing, our legacy Division experience would be over.

[@sfoeric]

Hey Rogue, at what agent level will Recon caches start dropping for my agent after killing the Nemesis? I have been doing a lot of leveling up of my hardcore agent that so I skip past the sketchy content until I am at least a few levels higher than the content. I also plan on burning my roughly 5k in NSA credits to jumpstart my named item blueprints collection too. And thanks for the good objective content.

[@RogueGold]

Hey! Here's a link to a graph they shared for it, I hope it pulls up the right tab. But the first chance for a Reconstructed Cache after the Nemesis fight is Loop 15 👉 trello.com/c/H4bPyZfQ/138-descent-reward-changes-for-lvl-40-players

That’s definately a good move that people can now reach level 40 endgame without owning the DLC.

[@Scott_Taylor_]

You can unlock the watch but you cannot unlock any skills, However, if you finish the manhunt missions, you will unlock two but you cannot use them, you will need to go to New York to unlock them.

[@KOOKMON1]

Just started a new character myself. Was debating if I should stop at level 29 and then boost to get the extra specialization points. I am definitely enjoying a new character every piece of loot feels like it matters again. Thanks for the video

[@RogueGold]

Glad you're enjoying! And thanks for watching 👊

[@EnragedPostman]

While leveling to 40, how noticeable was the unbalanced exp gain towards the later levels? Did you have to do a lot of grinding of open world events to supplement?

[@Dylan-zm3ht]

Honestly I just ran the invaded missions over and over. 2 runs per level , 7-8 minutes per mission.

[@RogueGold]

@EnragedPostman The Invaded content after Captiol Building got me to Level 35, and from there I did one Loop 10 Descent run, 3-4 Projects, and 2-3 side missions to get to 40

[@BrownToast261]

where is the mission u were doing at the start of the video?

[@Krisars]

It's a side mission from the base game that helps in upgrading the Theatre settlement

[@soggysaltine1124]

ok so my question is. i bought the game before this one end game change and i never bought the WoNY. i downloaded the game recently and started a new character so does this mean i cannot go to new york or do i need to be a certain level to go because when i went the the pilot it shows me i need to buy the DLC.

[@RogueGold]

Hey! If you bought the game prior to this Season, then unfortunately you won't have access to New York, or the Expansion, without paying for it. It's still a paid/premium experience, but is also just included with that base game version now. However- it's all optional content after One Endgame, so you don't need it to reach Level 40 and play the Endgame 👍

[@soggysaltine1124]

@@RogueGold thanks for clarifying it for me :]

[@jryde99]

Just curious how long is the solo level 30-40 grind take in DC? Need some materials and hated the 3-4 hour New York solo grind.

[@RogueGold]

I want to say it took me 4-6 hours, maybe? Invaded content got to me Level 35, and after that I did one Loop 10 Descent run, 3-4 Projects, and 2-3 Side Missions to get to 40

[@trickyBasterd]

The skeptic in me says that this is just narrative control and that it serves to make maintaining the sandbox easier for developers. I’d have to think that most players serious about end game own all DLC. Besides that, I hate that it ruined my Level 30 DZ exotic component farming

[@mitchellnash8628]

I just bought a preowned copy of the game but it is still asking me to pay for Warlords of New York. Am I doing something wrong or have I missed something? The video states it is included with base game now.

[@RogueGold]

Hey! If you bought a pre-owned version, then that won't get you access to the WONY expansion. Only the new "Base Game" version that was released last month (and I believe is digital-only) will come with WONY included. Otherwise you'll still need to buy it as a paid expansion. But- with One Endgame- you don't have to get it! It's all optional content now, and you can reach the Endgame without it.

Nope, it shouldn't hinder your progression in any way! The Level 30 boost would require you to make a new character to use, it shouldn't be available once you pass 30 on any given character

I was looking at how to upgrade the crafting bench and it said you have to finish some projects to unlock it.

[@Libertarian1776]

I have ZERO issues with them getting rid of world tiers, weapon score and even getting from level 1-40 in Washington, the major issue I have is to get the watch and continue on with the story you have to beat Keener, PERIOD, now it just Magically appears out of thin air, talk about ruining the lore and story progression. Bottom line if you want the watch then beat Keener and to beat Keener you have purchase and progress through WONY, you don't get to jump to Keener because you're level 40 now, tough $#!t if the new player doesn't like it, doing it the way it is now makes WONY Useless/worthless and monetarily very Stoopid on the Devs part, $15.00 is VERY reasonable for WONY and anyone should be thrilled to support the franchise with how much stuff is already free. Also by not requiring WONY they limit the rest of us to only playing in Washington and I'm sure it will dumb down the Brooklyn DLC since some players haven't set foot in New York since the first game (if they even played it), The Devs really need to stop bending over backwards for the new player.

[@grumpyoldman6503]

I don't really care that much about the story hole with Keeners watch and not having WONY, but doesn't it mean that if there is 'one unified player base' now, with some of those people NOT having WONY... that Seasons now can't use WONY assets for anything? Doesn't that limit things?

[@Libertarian1776]

@@grumpyoldman6503 Yes, that's what I'm saying, we are unified in Washington only but going forward those of us that have WONY will just have to play it on our own since nothing will "send us there" via manhunts, missions, Easter egg hunts and so on.

[@youtubeuser856]

So you still have to grind to lvl 40 to unlock the watch. I don't know that it's "more" streamlined. You either go through WONY or DC, one door is just as easy to walk through as the other one. Grind in NY or DC. It's the same not easier or streamlined at all. It is a great opportunity for people who don't own WONY. But, I still don't see how things are supposedly better. Did they say anything about having to follow the story once you are in DC as a new seasonal character at lvl 30? Or even now if I create a new character.

[@derrickfarbes1805]

As a day one player with more than 4 k hours this is a breath of fresh air with a change up after 5 years. You cannot complain it's 5 years old and you def got your money's worth if you're upset stop playing then but now is something different and I'm all for it. Hence being an actual division fan

Had just completed capitol building, pretty mad when logging off control points get reset no matter what and 2. What the heck is the undiscovered mission?? P.S. played D1 and loved it, just saw about month ago I had access to TD2 (just standard edition) and downloaded to replay, went thru to level 20, downloaded/bought premium, and I’m in love with it, gonna keep playing and I already got SHd watch levels and bought premo edition on sale from Xbox for 15$ and bought gift copy for my brother who loves siege and rust, but rly hope they fix control point reset asap

This speaks loudly to the developer's commitment to this game. The unification as you explain is long overdue. The Division 2 has suffered from the natural divide in player base. New players wanting to play with someone before level 40 and even then they are reminded how welcome they are as they are removed from Countdown for a low SHD number. This is a great way to bring both players together with new content, events, gear serving as the carrot. If there is a bonus that events difficulty scaling is more inclusive and a challenge to everyone then I support this. I would play a Division 3 but I don't like the trends of a game attempting to be all things to all possible players....the net companies are casting to gather $$$ is big and the experience becomes a forgettable 40 hour play through with a constant sucking sound on my wallet to buy additional stuff.

Doesn't matter, once you hit 40 your character is useless now because you'll be using seasonal characters. Stupid on top of stupid

Until those new and existing playing still see that they can’t inspect another players build… don’t we just get an update to fix that. ?? 😒😒 but wat do I kno.. I’m just a day 1 player. This is exactly why I haven’t bought the last two season passes… they fucking up.. plain and simple.

Player with 5k hours here. I'll never play this crap again and "seasons 2.0" has assured that fact.

[@Nvs76]

C'mon man, your being over dramatic. Im also a current player and this just isn't that deep to Me. The game is going on 6 years with only one paid Dlc, say what you want but a lot of games aren't doing that. I don't know if the seasonal change will be fun, what I do know is I have 4 characters, my expertise is at close to 25, and the game is now boring and repetitive. I'm hoping the seasonal change will make me want to play more. All of my gear is still here and if I don't wanna play the season I can do the same missions and CPs, and decent that I'm doing now. I can't complain until they let me play it, and then if I don't like it I'll have something to say. Not telling anyone how to feel, but the community is over reacting imo

[@STARS7112]

Why not just add more incentive to play a seasonal toon? Why phase out our eternal- sorry, nonseasonal characters?

[@RavenofChaos1]

So you don't have to "earm" your watch? (And no, getting your character to level 40 is not earning your watch. This is for people who just want to play and don't care about the story.

[@dylanmelotti4301]

Really looking towards the future of this game, new endgame re-work, seasons 2.0 and the new DLC.

[@r0botnix499]

Until its actually here im not going to pass judgement on seasons 2.0. ive played this game since the start and quite frankly am bored to death of the same PvE missions and open world. Currently i spend 90% of my time in the DZ or conflict now just because at least going up against different players at least add a bit of excitement to a 5 year old game. Im only doing PvE now just to complete the current section of the season each week which doesnt take long If season 2.0 brings in a bit of variety and challenge to the game im all for it. Im not bothered about using the new gear on my main character straight away. Seeing as for the past few seasons its all been trash anyway except maybe the one or two decent items. Its not as if they're stopping us from using our main to do the same things we have for 5 years anyway. Youll still have daily and weekly projects and such like to do too. I have multiple characters that i run all the time and run a new WONY character once a month for resources, though now i can just do it in DC which is great as i hate the NY missions! So all this might be for me is an additional character just for the seasons and story that ill run along side the rest If it turns out that i dont enjoy the way the seasonal character plays out or they still give out trash gear and weapons then ill just stick with PvP on my main and leave the new content alone. Failing that ill move on to something new. Ive had my moneys worth out of it over the 5 years which is more than i can say about other games.

[@hefeydd_]

Sorry, I need to rant a little I apologise RG. Another useful video thank you, RG. I just wish all the Content Creators would stop gaslighting Seasonal Characters I am not naming these individuals but you all know who they are I've been with this game from day one and I've never seen so many tantrums and discontent over seasonal characters. Some of these have been with the game from day one and all I've heard since the update dropped and the new Manhunt is the community is not happy with the Devs, the community has spoken and players are not happy. Some division content creators are yet again milking the hell out of the title update some in my opinion, to boost their ratings to clickbait the hell out of their channel and yet I haven't heard any players complaining. Also, another thing I want to address is some content creators and players who were complaining about the devs and the glitch on the exotics bench where players were exploiting the exotic tolling of their weapons and for me this would be an instant ban. Somebody said on Twitter (I refused to call it X) and they said somewhere along the lines of it isn't the player's fault if the devs have left a bug on weapons or gear. And I replied and said, who’s fault is it when you've ordered a BigMac it isn't McDonald's is it?

[@lorenzolgc7151]

Is the new 5th character (starting from scatch every season) just exclusive for the season events only (e.g. manhunt)?... For example, can I still use my first four level 40 characters and gear for the core game- doing Raids and control points etc, at anytime?? If that is the case... I can live with that. Can anyone clarify this?

[@RogueGold]

Yes, you can still use your existing characters at any time, to play whatever you want. The one big change is that they can no longer access the Manhunt story content (except for the Climax mission)

[@lorenzolgc7151]

@@RogueGold Yeah, I suppose the climax mission will be similar to WONY in that you can equip your stashed level 40 gear to go after Keener because you have reached level 40. The season events are optional after all, there is still a vast majority of content in the game unaffected that you can play as usual. Convey this in your next video and the community should relax a little. Cheers!

I can hear the older players now..."I can't believe they got rid of World Tiers...do you know how much grind I had to do to get through those tiers!? Noobs are just handed everything... I'm gonna quit😤" lmaoooo

[@ralk7048]

It's the curse of all overinvested players. You always have players who define achievement and status from how much time they waste with the game. They will demand for content that only the deeply invested players who know and have all the optimized builds and gear can do. Not bashing on the helpful communities of older players that host group content directly though - they do make hard group content accessible to newbies. The issue is with the complex and unexplained end-game content driving away players who don't read around the subject, and the crushing grind systems (SHD/Expertise) intended for player retention. The problem Ubisoft has to solve with the Division franchise going forward is making an experience that attracts and maintains a new audience, not just a small dedicated playerbase good at grinding. As of this moment they don't have much to show for, so their new gameplay loop better be impressive right off the bat.

If you want everything the game offers you still need to play warlords of new york. I dont know if the exp.

Basically if you dont play all of the game you will always be at a disadvantage.

If the Devs wanted a true one endgame then they need to also implement cross platform play 🤷🏼‍♂️ no reason in 2024 why pc, ps & xb players should not be able to play together on a online server based game like this.

[@SkypherOfficial]

Miss me with this seasonal character bs. Why change the formula after 5 years

[@blckandwhtknight]

When was the last time you looted a piece of gear that was meaningful for your character, let alone made you excited? Play anything but striker? The power increase has peaked to unsustainable levels and the gear game has flatlined. That's one of the reasons the devs are introducing seasons, second would be to get new players into endgame before the major reset with the next DLC.

[@SpiNinGRecOrds]

@@blckandwhtknight Issue is, they hit a wall with what kind of gear they can even make, a good majority of new gear has been mediocre at best compared to the stuff we already have, so them doing seasonal characters is basically a cheap way to force players to play different. To top it off, you'll need to do that EVERY SEASON GOING FORWARD, why would anyone who spent hundreds of hours grinding out gear sets that are viable, perfecting them, testing out combos, etc - want to make a new character? The only real reason was because of appearance, extra chances for drops and extra storage. Season 2.0 wont even feel that fresh, all they're doing is forcing you to start over and play through the missions you've already done hundreds or thoughsands for times, this time with modifiers, thats not in any way exciting or fresh.

[@Raptorman80]

Rogue, I dont know how you think this is good for the franchise. No one wants to level up a new character every season. They're catering to new players and ignoring the die hard player base that has been here since the beginning. Why are you praising this like its a monumental achievement? The majority of the player base has a negative opinion on this and you know it. Instead of being a fanboy, how about calling Ubisoft out for not delivering what the community wants? You're right about one thing though. They will need to bring in as many new players as they can to make up for current players that are gonna quit.

[@RogueGold]

This video has no relation to the Seasons 2.0 or Seasonal Character topic, it's regarding what got added to the game in the update last week

[@Raptorman80]

So besides seasons 2.0, now we get a new one endgame. Since day one everyone has been begging for a new underground. Did we get it? No. We've been begging for a new survival. Did we get it? No. But what we do get is no more world tiers and only two versions of the game for new players to choose from to make their purchasing decision easier. I know you're a content creator and you're trying to stay in Ubisofts good graces but enough is enough.

[@findelciclo]

This is perfect. I really hope more people come back for this and the game gets new players too. Now, i know it's never going to happen but imagine if the devs magically implemented cross-play. That would be a dream come true so the whole community could be united.

[@xSURGERx]

I was playing right before this update, just came back too, now I have no desire to play. I liked being locked at 30 and progressing in the world tiers, and If I wanted to go to the next content I would've pay for it. Now I don't get a choice. Taking Choice away from people isnt a good thing.

[@darkwandervids6717]

These changes are fine, the community ain’t really caring about this. It’s the stupid seasonal characters. Just get rid of seasonal characters and we can deal with everything else.
