The Division Will Not Include Brooklyn Content At Launch

​


Konrad Toney6 hours ago
I bet Ubisoft looked at Destiny and were like "wait didn't they show this stuff before the game launched? Holy shit and people are buying it!?! Lads new plan, let's take out the stuff we've shown already then sell it separately later. Cash. Money"

There's a lot of speculation about which areas of New York City you will be able to access in Ubisoft's The Division. Today, those rumors have been put to an end during an interview by the game's Creative Director Magnus Jansén.

In an interview with the Examiner, Creative Director Magnus Jansén confirmed that only Midtown Manhattan will be available when The Division launches on March 8. The rest of the areas won't be featured in the game, at least not at launch.

"For Tom Clancy’s The Division we are going with Midtown Manhattan. It is because of the 1 to 1 re-creation and the way the pandemic has . Basically, everything has been hit and there are no more resources because everyone tried to get out. There is no more gasoline in the cars, there is no traffic, you’re on foot." Said Jansén to Examiner. "With the level of detail, we have, doing Midtown Manhattan is a huge open-world experience and more than enough to sink your teeth into. It is a very sizable open-world game."

It's a bit understandable that only one of the city's boroughs is in the game since the team has been putting all their efforts in creating Midtown Manhattan. Plus, the game's story focuses on that area. Although in some of the trailers that were released, like in the E3 trailer, it showed Brooklyn as the place of action. This raises some new rumors about whether the rest of the boroughs will be part of the season pass.



Apart from that, the full map of the game has been confirmed in a video posted by Open World Games. They also have a small interview with Jansén that covered not only the map size but also some of the customization options. Jansen also provided more information about the Dark Zone.

You can check the Open World Games video below:

anybody upgraded the internal HD to a bigger one or SSD on Xbox One??
Click to expand...

I was looking to get a SSD or something to get faster load times, but I still want to do so more research to see about getting one of the fastest ones. I want one that is as fast or even faster than the hybrid drives they put in the new Xbox One.

For example, I was looking at one model called a G-Force that I heard was good, but it's external, which makes it more expensive and I want to research it more to make sure I'm getting my money's worth because it's like between $150 to 250 dollars (more memory = more money).

A cheaper alternative is to get an internal and put it in an enclosure and then you'll be able to plug into the Xbox One.

This guy explains it and if you go to the video page, he also provided links in the description to the products he did his with:

New Features Coming to Xbox One Preview and Xbox Beta App this Month

Hero-Image_Console_Trending-Landing-Page-940x528.jpg

In November, we transformed Xbox One to make it the fastest and most social Xbox experience ever. We continue to evolve the Xbox experience based on your feedback and I’m excited to announce the first of a set of new features releasing in 2016. Rolling out to the Xbox One Preview audience starting today, and to Windows 10 PC & mobile Xbox Beta app members next week, are a host of updates. This month, we’re focused on continuing to improve social features to help you stay connected to the Xbox Live community across console and PC, while bringing these experiences closer together.

Brand new experiences and updates which will start to rollout to Xbox One Preview:

• See who’s in a Party: Xbox One Preview participants will be able to see who’s in a Party before joining. When you view the profile of a friend who is in a Party in the guide, you will now be able to see who else they’re playing with. Click the ‘Chat’ button which appears immediately below the user to jump in and see who is in the Party.



• Gamerscore Leaderboard: In Xbox One Preview, go to the Achievements section of your profile by clicking ‘View Achievements’ through the sign-in tab of the guide to check out the revived Gamerscore Leaderboard. Through the Gamerscore Leaderboard, see where you stand relative to your friends by comparing total gamerscore, as well as biggest gains over a rolling 30-day period. Click on the Gamerscore Leaderboard to see the full list of all your friends.



• Re-arrange Pins on Home and access them offline: Many of you have told us that you want Pins on your Xbox One Home to be easier to organize. In Preview, you will now be able to rearrange individual pins. We also made Pins accessible for launching when you are offline.

• Updating Activity Feed in Xbox One: Your activity feed in Xbox One Preview will inform you when there are new items in your feed. Clicking the link will take you to the top of your feed where you’ll see a run-down of the newest posts, so that you always have the freshest content at your fingertips.



• Joinable Twitch Broadcasts: You want it to be easier to watch your friend’s game broadcasts. In Preview, Game Hubs as well as the game tile will allow you to easily launch Twitch.tv broadcasts if friends are broadcasting.

• Improvements to Suggested Friends: Looking for people who you might know on Xbox or top content creators to follow? Check out the new Friend Suggestions area in Community and the Friends list in the Guide on Xbox One. Friend Suggestions include the gamertag, real name (if shared), gamerpic or Xbox Avatar image, and the reason the suggestion was made to you. Click through from the suggestion to view the member’s full profile and choose to grow your friends list.

• Hide games from ‘ready-to-install’ list: Fans asked that we re-enable the ability to hide content like betas, trials, games, and apps that they no longer want to install. Xbox One Preview members will be able to start using this feature again.

Updates coming to Xbox One Preview and the Xbox Beta app that make gaming on any platform better:

• Avatar Store: Equip your avatar with the latest avatar items in the newly-integrated ‘Avatar Store’. On the console, the Store is built right into the Xbox Avatars app and on Windows 10 PCs and phones, access the Store through the Xbox Avatars app. Get access to the entire catalog of new and oldie-but-goodie items, including free items. As you’re perusing catalogs, enjoy the ability to preview the items on your avatar real-time before you buy.



• Xbox News: Xbox News is a one-stop source for all the latest information about new hardware, console updates, game releases, tournaments like the Halo World Championship, breaking entertainment content, and more. This month, both Xbox Beta app and Xbox One Preview audiences will see Xbox News posts in their activity feed to make it easier to stay up to date on all things Xbox.

• Improvements to Trending: Across Xbox One Preview and Xbox Beta app experiences this month for console and Windows 10 PCs and phones, you’ll notice a new access point for Trending items to the right of the Community tab on your console and in the left menu area of the Xbox app. This gets you to a dedicated Trending landing page with the most popular topics across Xbox Live surfaced at the top followed by an inspirational assortment of top videos, screenshots, achievements, and more that members across the community have created or unlocked. Consider friending or following publishers of content that you like.

• Suggested friends: In both the Xbox One Preview and Xbox Beta app, we’re making it easier to get details on your suggested friends. Starting this month, if you click ‘see all’ or double tap on the shortlist of friend suggestions in any scenario, you will be pointed to a full-screen view of all suggested friends.

Across both Xbox One Preview and the Xbox Beta app, January brings the injection of Trending topics and friend suggestions into your activity feed.

• Compact mode for Xbox App: With this update to the Xbox Beta app, we’ve moved additional functions to compact mode which will enable you to quickly switch between your friends’ view, your party, messages and activity alerts. A quick click allows you to keep an eye on what your friends are up to, while multi-tasking on your Windows PC!



As we commence our first update of 2016, I want to thank you for your continued support. The Xbox community cast over 6.5 million votes on Xbox Feedback in 2015, contributing to our system updates. 2016 is shaping up to be an even bigger year for gamers and we’re looking forward to bringing you exciting updates to continually improve your gaming experience.

It's unclear exactly why the game is free right now, but it is, so don't ask questions, and start the download.

The game is not backwards compatible with Xbox One currently, so if you want to play it will have to be on Xbox 360. You can head straight here to grab the game,

The game's sequel, Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was our 2015 game of the year. For our review of Witcher 2, head here.
