Is there a way to check if my mic is actually working in game?

I had no problem talking to people until yesterday when the game didn't seem to pick up my headset mic anymore

Gonna go DZ tonight and scream at people just to check :/

If you find it lets us know. I couldn't find anything either.

My current progress. Tonight we're going to work towards hitting DZ level 30 so we can open the cases in there.
Those lvl 30 cases only have blues. Dont ask me why massive thought that was a good idea

How to:
Open inventory with i
Inspect mask with g
Close all menus by hitting Esc few times
Bane alterego activated


I don't have game on console so can't try if doable on that version.

Go to Settings -> Audio, scroll to auto talk sensitivity and press your voicechat button and talk, it will show a green audio level.

Just make sure your VOIP setting is on yes, maybe send a voice message to someone via ps messages to make sure there is no issue with your microphone.

I'll check the VOIP but i didn't really change a thing, my Logitech App also seems to pick my voice well enough, like the Auto Sensitivity shows my voice moving the bar up

If you find it lets us know. I couldn't find anything either.

sure

What are the cases that aren't locked to 30? Are they the same?

We opened one on a rooftop in the 25-27 zone and I got a purple drop out of it.

Would be weird that the 30lv locked ones have worse loot...

Yeah thought about that while typing the other messages, the green audio level moves when i speak wich means that everything should be ok...i guess i'll need to try again tonight, weird

yea it makes no sense, DZ not rank locked key chests give 2 purples while 30+ DZ rank give blues..

Anyone have issues switching weapons while in a firefight?

This seems to happen to me pretty often....

As soon as I empty the clip in my primary weapon I hit triangle to switch to my secondary immediately, and it seems like 90% of the time it doesn't work. Instead my guy just reloads his primary weapon and I am unable to switch to secondary quickly enough :/

I was having this issue last night as well, super fucking annoying.

Had no problems until yesterday also, when it was a mess. Ingame audio and chat cutting all the time. Wonder if there's a problem with the servers or PSN?

I just hit level 7, should I be venturing into the dark zone? Can I even enter yet?

Wait until you can do the mission that introduces you to the DZ. That's either lv8 or 10.

Also, if you look at the DZ on your map you can see the lines that segment it by level bracket. The south side is where you'll start.

I'm level 11 now. So far I've managed to spend all my playtime in a group of four. The co-op is good, and that's what I was looking for.

I know it's early but I'm a little surprised at the absolute lack of enemy variety. Yes, I understand that the Division is restricted by the real-world setting but they could have added something like technicals, motorcycles, gun emplacements, attack dogs, or drones.

There are 4 factions that you fight. The last two factions (the final one especially) are much more interesting to fight. I've been playing with a group of 4 and the final faction you encounter is pretty legit. Their AI routines are definitely wayyy better than the Rioters or Cleaners. I hope hope hope Massive does good things with the PVE. A shooter with complex group mechanics is basically my dream game.

Oh, and you'll get your gun emplacements...

My character as of last night right after I hit 27:

Just bought that M1A from the Grindhouse vendor. Blows away the one I was using.

I think we bought the same one. It's pretty awesome and should last me to 30 I hope. The talents on it are insane (dunno if that's random). I have "kill an enemey to restore 8% health" and "kill an enemy to reduce skill cooldown by 5%".

Last night realized my level 20 is still rocking a level 15 Carbine :c

RNG pls. I was hoping I wouldn't have to buy another one.
 
First time with game last nigbt... Still can't get ds4 button prompts to show up on pc version. Far cry primal no issues with plug n play with ds4.

Have ds4 windows on and off, but showing the xbox button prompts. I have the DS4 USB to pc.

Heard it plug n play but a no go for me. Playing u play version digitally.
 
I'll say it again, last night the servers were really messed up. I fell through the game world and couldn't salvage it during the hospital daily. I even restarted my whole game and right where the mission starts the floor was gone and fell through again.

It finally worked ok after a 2nd restart. Luckily the people I was with left the boss at a sliver of health and waited for me. Pretty cool randos

Things were just really weird. People also claimed to not run into a single non hostile in hours at the dz.

Among other things. PC here.

Thanks for the DZ rescue.

Interesting thing happened last night. I had a hard console crash when I was in the DZ - had about 5 purples in my pack and another couple on the ground. When I finally was able to get back up and running, not only did the game start me in the middle of the dark zone but I also still had my 5 purples which I was very surprised at. Ones on the ground were gone. Dave came into the DZ to help me extract.

You'll always have to get another one. I had some trouble letting go of guns, but the truth is you'll have a better one in 2 hours and they're all just variants of each other except for damage.

Anyone who has 150k+ dps. are you using anything from the DZ or is it strictly challenge mode / crafting?

I'm still using purple 31 crit/crit gloves from DZ since I haven't gotten better ones from CM yet, and I'm not DZ rank 50 yet. The gloves/chest/holster patterns come from the DZ vendors. I also have an AUG and M1A from DZ drops. The vast majority of my gear is from PC though.

I fell through the game world during the daily CM, right when the mods were rushing us as we protected the bomb defuser. I then reappeared at my home base. I had to fast travel to the mission, then run through the entire mission again to get to my team. Was so annoying.

Thanks, I figured as much. I keep getting full purple extractions but want to know if should even bother with the loot or just get mods to extract. I take a quick look at what drops but dont pick up blues and now am watching purples too.

No, but once loaded into new instance just leave the group. It will keep you in that new instance.
Could try that I guess.

==================================================

BTW, Lincoln Tunnel CM is supposed to be one of the two "easier" CMs right? I tried pugging it a few times and each time we just get destroyed at the entrance. I'll try out pugging for Event Center CM but I can't say I'm too optimistic about it.

At this point it feels like I'm better off just trying to get a DZ group going or just get 4 lvl 30s and get PCs from the hard dailies.

Can't get a decent HE gloves to drop. Not rank 50 yet (currently 30) so can't buy the glove schematics from the DZ vendors. Current Superior gloves are too damn good to replace. Has Critical Damage, Critical Hit Chance, and Damage to Elites for major attributes.

Guess I should see who is online on my friend list that wants to go do some DZ stuff for a bit.

It's important to always fall back when enemies spawn. Not find the closest cover.

I still pick up everything. Crafting takes so many mats, and you may have to craft multiple times to get decent rolls on your gear.

No problem, that was fun. Felt a sense of urgency when I went in, even more than usual as I wanted to make sure and get there quick enough without running into any enemies or rogues. Didn't want you to lose your loot for good. Can't wait to hit 30 so I can start spending more time in the DZ.

Is there a recommended DPS for the regular daily (not challenge)? Probably going to just finally make the jump to 30 today and wanted to see if I'll need to get some more gear at 30 to tackle the daily missions, or if you can do them well enough if you are at 30?

Which upgrades should I get first from each wing? Are there any priorities?

You'll get enough resources from playing to basically unlock everything by 30 which is when it;ll really "matter", but I would recommend saving up enough to get a Signature skill ASAP (unlock the 3 big upgrades for a wing). This is a different skill slot and the effect is big. Didn't realize this til the 20s. I play in a group, so the medical uber heal is really nice. Also, the final talent unlocks when you complete the medical wing upgrades, so maybe prioritize that (others are at lvl 5,15,25).

Regular daily is Challenging, if you mean the Hard Difficulty dailies those are a breeze to run though

If gear a little before jumping in unless you have a group that'll help carry you.

Game bugged out and wouldn't let me extract from the DZ last night despite multiple tries... Finally after leaving the DZ and reloading it spawned me in a safe house in the middle of the DZ...why? Anyways, it was late and I figured I'd try for a quick extract. Made it back down to DZ01 extraction and started it up... As I was dealing with about 6-8 purple guys that swarmed in I got shotgunned in the back by another player lol. Thanks, Massive, you owe me 8 purples and a checkered hat.
