Another ETF member speaks to the community about The Division: Year 2 brings incredible new content.
Just a few days ago, an “Elite Task Force” member spoke up: He was able to experience the new content and discuss it with the developers – and it was fantastic. The “Year 2” content exceeded his expectations.
Since Friday, the ETF phase is over. Now, another ETF member has something to say in the reddit forum: He can assure the community that Year 2 is full of incredible content. This content will not only provide new things to play, but will also change the way you play.
Whether as a solo player or in a group, new gameplay mechanics will come, new playstyles can be tested. He also emphasizes that it is really “new content”, not rehashed. Moreover, the amount of content that will be available for free is incredible.
At the end of his detailed post, he asks the community to be patient for this content. This “incredible content” is likely to come only with update 1.8 towards the end of the year, about which little is known so far.
By the way: The user has reportedly been identified as a “real” ETF member now.
Contents of ETF Charlie
The ETF Charlie consisted of 12 community members who were able to talk to the developers about Year 2. Meanwhile, the complete program of the third ETF in the history of The Division has been published by the community manager mattshotcha. Over the four days, the following topics were discussed:
- Day 1: The ETF members reported which problems in The Division are currently the biggest for them. Then the developers presented the plans for Year 2. These include more than updates 1.7 and 1.8. The ETF provided first feedback on this.
- Day 2: There were gameplay sessions and discussions about some aspects of Year 2: The Seasons (Events) of 1.7, changes to the Rogue mechanic in 1.8, Gear Sets, Underground improvements, PvP battles.
- Day 3: The focus was on update 1.8 and its new features and new content. Discussions took place about global events, an increase in the world rank and gear score, as well as improvements in survival.
- Day 4: No gameplay sessions, but only discussions about improvements to the “Gear Score” feature, loot, drop rates, vendors, and gear qualities. Furthermore, improvements in the Light Zone and Dark Zone, as well as new cosmetic items were discussed. “Quality of Life” improvements were also mentioned.

However, that these topics were discussed is not a confirmation that they will also make it into the game. Official announcements are expected in the coming weeks.
