At The Division 2 the Creative Director has fun with the players. He had the developers sneak a police car with a spelling mistake into the game and then challenged the players to hunt it down. An agent from Berlin found it. He is now expecting a care package from the developers.
This is the backstory: As Kotaku reports, this gag dates back to 2018. At that time, the Gamescom trailer for The Division 2 was released. In one scene of the trailer, it appeared that the word “Police” on a police car was misspelled. It looked like the “I” was missing because the door was open.
From this, a meme was born.
In February 2019, the Creative Director, Julian Gerighty, then told a fan: One will bring such a car into The Division 2. And he kept his word.
Apparently, the “Polce” car was brought into the game at some point in the weeks after, but no one was searching for it.
On August 21, Gerighty then specifically sent the players on the hunt, enticing them with a “prize.”
German guard makes a discovery
Who found it? The Berlin agent Patrik (SteelRamapge77) was the first to find the car, as Kotaku reports.
He searched for about 2 hours and 10 minutes: “It was fun. My eyes hurt a bit anyway, but I confess: I’m not the youngest anymore.”
While searching for the car, his job as a guard helped him, as he learned to approach problems methodically. He apparently searched Washington, DC, street by street until he found the strange car.
The police car is misspelled and has a smiley face in the “O” (featured image).
Where is the car? The car is located west of the Lincoln Memorial near the highway underpass.
Gerighty has already congratulated on Twitter and announced that he will send the agent a care package with items from Massive and Ubisoft.
He asks if players want more of such scavenger hunts.
At the moment, things are quite calm in The Division 2, the developers are taking a communication break – the State of the Game is set. But soon the game is expected to pick up pace again, the next update is supposed to significantly improve The Division 2:
