In The Division, Massive would like to know which gear set you find especially cool – regardless of its power.
Today starts the days when Massive speaks directly with the community in Sweden to “save” The Division. The “Elite Task Force” will be present from September 7 to September 9, consisting of YouTubers, streamers, and completely unknown agents who have applied for the rescue mission. By the way, Massive pays for the flights, hotel, and food.
In the coming days, we will learn what these community representatives will bring to Massive and how the developers will take up the ideas. The community developer Hamish Bode is expected to discuss this in tomorrow’s “State of the Game” livestream with some agents.
Survey on Gear Sets
Additionally, since last night, there has been a survey on the gear sets that community developer Yannick Banchereau is presenting.
The gear sets are an essential part of the endgame. You create certain character builds with them. Since the Underground expansion, there are 13 available sets with various talents and bonuses – and as Banchereau admits: Some are definitely better than others.
To make the “gear set” design more balanced and better respond to player feedback, a survey has now been set up. With this, they aim to investigate the issues more closely. The discussion about the gear sets begins with the question:
Which sets are, in your opinion, the most interesting in terms of mechanics – regardless of their actual power and stats? You can choose three sets.
With this, they want to get closer to the question of what defines a “well-crafted” gear set design.
You can access the survey on the sets here.
If you want to not only tick a box for the gear sets but also send your detailed opinion directly to Massive, you can do this – in English – in this thread.
Overview of all gear sets:
- Here we present the Stormer’s combat gear.
