I kinda grew bored with The Division before its end game (though I’m certainly jumping back in this weekend), but there are those who’ve stuck around, gathering loot and crafting gear to fashion the very best in post-apocalyptic haute couture.
They’re also at the greatest risk of a new game-breaking bug that’s affecting some players. There’s a new issue seemingly introduced in this week’s great big patch, that’s locking some players out of the game completely.
Some of those who’ve crafted a high-end, golden backpack have tried logging in to find their backpacks missing entirely – which shouldn’t be possible. The glitch has prevented those players from being able to enter the game, even if just to switch to another backpack.
“We are aware that some of you are experiencing an issue where you are locked out of your account. This is usually caused by having crafted a High-End backpack. We are looking to resolve this, it’s one of our main priorities at the moment,” Ubisoft says in the game’s support thread.
As you might expect, the game’s subreddit is awash with angry players unable to connect to the game. If you are experiencing the glitch, Ubisoft is looking for your help to lock down the issue. The forum, at time of writing, has 24 pages full of players who’re unable to connect – and most of it seems to be related to high-end backpacks. If you;re still playing, you may want to stay away from the crafting station until Ubisoft and Massive fix this.

After 2 frames to max and 4 guns, that affinity bar on it’s way to 16 only moved a smidge. This will take most time.

IKR?
Dude, that 40 min T4 we did? Got my Nekros up to 30, Lesion up to 30, Dual Cera up to 30 (and sold that kak)…..progress bar, moved a mere 5%
🙁
I think we race to MR16 and then I need to focus on Division, I wanna join you guys, but need better gear first

Your hate for pink is probably 90% the reason I run those colours

The other 10% is obviously to be…

Oh I don’t hate it, at all. In fact, wearing a pink corporate golf shirt today!
It is just, your damn fascination with it that irks me

Besides it’s just my Nova that’s pink. The rest are Red, blue and green.

That’s the problem of the “real men” on the receiving end of the barrel

Shush you, we need to get this day over so that we can farm all the things this weekend!

Indeed, I’ll be on much later this evening and tomorrow I’m out all day but the rest of the weekend – Warfarm.

I had to break the news to my workers today that they are indeed not going home 3 hours early because this is a “normal working day”.
So I will be joining this afternoon only as well 😛

Pfffft, who goes home early before a public holiday? I’m in financial services – we barely get leave over the December period.

My last login took a bit longer than the previous ones but just wait and it launches eventually. Also had a black screen at the start but it went away on its own after 30 seconds or so.

Last night I got stuck in a electronics store counter. I could access the menus and everything but my character could not move. Eventually after a minute or 2 I teleported trough the counter to the other side and everything was fine again.

Must say they are pretty damn intense about fixing issues. There will always be issues nowadays. There are just too many elements to a game to 100% test and release without problems.
I am enjoying the game and points to Ubi for fixing issues quickly. Uplay is still irritating as fuck though.
