In this new The Division demo, we follow 3 players as they move through the Dark Zone, a mutliplayer gameplay space in our world, which you can seamlessly enter without any loading screens.
It's the most dangerous place in the game, with the most powerful enemies and therefore the best loot. But this loot attracts lots of attention, including real players...
Check out this video to see what happens then!

Looks more fun and exciting then any mmo coming. Beta signups are now open.

At this point, it is wise to steer clear from any of the old MMO templates, I think. So this is a good thing.

it looks better than mmos
cant fix the truth
Who said this was a mmo?
I agree it did look better but the game still looks great. Is this all you have been reduced to is a person that goes going around forums talking negative about games? What happened to the person that was so into ArcheAge? Is this what happens when a person does not have a game to play?
You did, by posting in a discussion forum for MMO's.
What ever you say my friend but its pretty clear to me what going on. GL to you my friend because you seem to have turned into the people you use to tell others not to become.
I don't care what forum its posted in show me anywhere where I said The Division is a mmo. If its in the wrong forum we have mods for that.

Because we're so used to slashing multiple enemies with swords dozens of times and them just shrugging them off like its nothing -- right? I didn't hear too many complaints on SWTOR when you could call down air strikes but enemies were still standing, or when on the movies a single blaster hit would take out pretty much anything but in the game a direct hit from a lightsaber could be shrugged off.
I mean if its an RPG and not just a generic TPS then yes.. you should be able to load up an enemy with plenty of rounds and use skills without 1 shotting everyone. I don't know why I am explaining RPG mechanics on an MMORPG forum.
I wouldn't worry about that.. the division is listed on this site, and so is destiny and I think this will be more of a multiplayer game than destiny is. I also think the gameplay still looks amazing, and that graphically it looks great too. I'm still greatly looking forward to this above any other mmos coming up.

I don't think FFA and "full loot" PVP is for casuals at all... but the way its implemented in this game could be problematic eventually. I mean its one thing if you just roam around.. pick up items.. and then leave the area by any means necessary... but the extraction point is literally a neon sign saying "I HAVE LOOT COME TAKE IT" and all the other teams in the area can just come in and take it.
I can see extraction point camping being a common occurrence.
That being said, I think that this game more than many others will have more skillful components to it. One thing about TPS's with cover mechanics is that a solid knowledge of your surroundings and a cohesive team can outmatch larger uncoordinated teams. Most MMOs only have "skillful" competition in focused structured PvP settings. Open world items like this are otherwise zerg fests. This "new" style of gameplay may dissuade that from happening.
That's news to me. Usually YOUR opinion is truth when it comes to anything about Trion.
How could it not be casual?

Good sounds like a post apocalypse to me
General Gaming = any game. Since when is using proper forums a bad thing for non-mmo related games?
This was originally posted in the MMO forums. He also posted a thread for the 4 player game Destiny in the MMO forums. Both were moved.
Right, some players aren't looking for game depth. To them, realism might be more important.

Still doesn't change the whole Opinion is not truth thing. And the Trion thing, is that even relevant? if your going to make a statement about something, you need to be very sure about what you know to be true, unless of course, its in your Opinion too.
FFA PvP only works with a zerg mentality when you can define the specifics of your group and have constant knowledge of your environment. I don't see that to be the case here for the following reasons:
