After having spent extensive time with the beta for The Division, it’s clear that the game is doing its own thing, and comparisons to existing shooters, like Destiny, are mostly unfounded. However, this means that it’s harder to predict if The Division will resonate with fans of Destiny and other popular shooters. For shooter fans on the fence about whether or not The Division should be a game worth keeping on their radar, here are five reasons why it may just meet meet or exceed expectations....

Chloe Woitier reported Ubisoft’s comments on Twitter, confirming the publisher’s disappointment with the two major 2019 releases. Details regarding The Division 2’s struggles were not provided. It was simply referenced as “part of Ubisoft’s commercial failures.” Ubisoft explains that it’s difficult to launch sequels to games with multi-year live services, and also says that innovation isn’t capitalized on without sufficient development time.

The Summit is a PvE game mode that was introduced to The Division 2 in Season 3. The Summit is a 100 floor Skyscraper located in Manhattan. Players climb floors, with each floor increasing in difficulty. As players progress up The Summit, they will encounter a randomly selected faction as well as enemies like Underground Cannibals, Ambushers, Raiders, and Rogue Agents. Every 10th floor the player reaches, they will face a boss while at the 100th floor, players will have to defeat three Hunters in order to clear the floor....

While these items seemed to drop at a higher rate during the successful betas that the game ran back in February, these skins have proven to be a much rarer commodity in the full retail version of the game. Weapon skins can be included as a potential loot drop after taking down an enemy, helping civilians, or randomly opening a chest, but so far the odds for this to happen have been fairly low....

First, an exploit was discovered that allowed players to bypass the hardest portion of the new Falcon Lost Incursion, which made the end-game raid laughably easy. After the Falcon Lost Incursion exploit was hotfixed, however, Agents believed that Ubisoft had finally gotten on top of the issue and made the multiplayer experience a challenge once more. Unfortunately, that doesn’t seem to be the case, as YouTuber named DaryusP unveiled a revised version of The Division’s now infamous exploit that still works in Falcon Lost even after the hotfix....

First and foremost, The Division’s update will add the game’s first raid to the experience. In The Division, raids are referred to as Incursions (putting to rest previous speculation that Incursions would be renamed to Operations), and the game’s first Incursion will be called Falcon Lost. Falcon Lost will have players venturing into New York’s sewers in order to infiltrate a water treatment facility, where they will find a dangerous group of enemies called the Last Man Battalion....

Ubisoft Massive has a new survey that focuses on The Division’s Survival DLC that launched late last year. After asking a number of pretty standard survey questions like how often players log on to the game, the survey hones in on what players like the most or least about the recent DLC pack before turning an eye towards future expansions. [HTML1] YouTuber Arekkz has a good summary, embedded above, of the most important parts of the survey if you don’t want to actually click through the entire thing....

A shortened draft was inevitable, though there was a possibility this year’s draft could have been 10 rounds instead of five. Ultimately, according to reports, MLB and the players association had reservations about a proposed 10-round setup. MORE: Coronavirus schedule updates The decision to go five rounds could have major implications down the road as teams regularly find hidden gems later in the draft. Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts, the 2018 AL MVP with the Red Sox, was selected in the fifth round of the 2011 draft, narrowly missing the cutoff for Sporting News’ list of the best active players drafted in the sixth through 10th rounds....

Even the more “basic” human characters have ancestors and lore that go back thousands of years, but of all these races, the Dunmer, or Dark Elves, have some of the most interesting. That’s because they are cursed, are closely related to The Elder Scrolls’ Dwemer mystery, and have a lot of intertwined details like their religion.

Released in 2002, The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind is considered one of the most beloved installments of the franchise, with a dedicated modding community that has kept the game fresh and interesting. Now a recent mod has brought a very modern real-world entity into the realm of Tamriel: a McDonald’s restaurant.

Except that the result, for Chris Paul, was very much the same as it has been year after year. As the clock expired in Los Angeles on May 15 and the Clippers found themselves on the losing end of a 104-98 score-line to the Thunder, Paul watched another season end prematurely. For all his individual accolades and talent, Paul has never been past the Second Round of the playoffs in his nine-year NBA career....

RUMOURS: Ozil wants Draxler at Arsenal The France international returned to Old Trafford having spent four years with Serie A giants Juventus, winning four successive Scudettos, and struggled to live up to the world-record transfer fee paid by the Red Devils in August. Only goalkeeper David De Gea has played more minutes than the 23-year-old in the Premier League for United this season, while the Frenchman has also made six appearances in the Europa League so far....

But can baseball survive Bud Selig and Don Fehr? We’ll see. Yes, it’s that time in the season when a lad’s fancy turns to labor negotiations and the timeless romance of collective bargaining. Why would fans want to watch Barry Bonds stand in against Randy Johnson on some warm, moonlit night–when instead they can listen to Commissioner Selig and union leader Fehr wax poetic about revenue sharing, luxury taxes, contraction and the pharmaceutical attributes of steroids?...

These free weekly titles have ranged across various different genres and price-points, with nearly a hundred dollars of free software coming out in one week of April. Indeed, even modern classics like Alien: Isolation have been free again recently on the store, while iconic cult games like Hand of Fate 2 also got a look in from the store’s weekly free giveaway. These giveaways are despite recent court documents indicating that the company is losing money to the tune of nearly half a billion dollars in Epic Games Store losses....

Tartikoff’s official explanation was that he had quit to spend more time with his daughter, Calla, 9, who hasn’t fully recovered from head injuries suffered in a January 1991 jeep accident in Lake Tahoe, Nev. (Tartikoff, tragically, was at the wheel.) Around Labor Day, when it became clear she wasn’t improving, Tartikoff and his wife, Lilly, bought a house in New Orleans to be near one of the country’s top therapists....

Marvel video game adaptations have practically disappeared over the years; though the early MCU movies had games accompanying them, they never found any real success in comparison to their movie counterparts. Instead and perhaps rightfully so, Marvel video games are distinct from the shows, such as Square Enix’s Marvel’s Avengers. That said, if there was one adaptation Marvel would make, there’s plenty of reasons for it to be The Falcon and The Winter Soldier....

Following his Universal Championship win against Braun Strowman in the main event, Seth Rollins celebrated his victory at the top of the ramp when the lights went out. When they came back up, The Fiend held Rollins in the Sister Abigail and hit the finishing move on the ramp. The Fiend then used the Mandible Claw to incapacitate the Universal Champion as the cameras went to black. When the official upload of The Fiend’s attack is available we will update this section....

After his internet-shattering entrance at SummerSlam, The Fiend was noticeably absent on the RAW following the pay-per-view. However, WWE fans wouldn’t get another week without Bray Wyatt’s evil alter-ego as he crashed Jerry “The King” Lawler’s King’s Court segment. Check out The Fiend’s attack on Lawler below. Lawler, who was on commentary replacing Corey Graves for the evening, was scheduled to interview Sasha Banks and get to the bottom of why she attacked Natalya last week....

He made his main-roster debut shortly thereafter as the sidekick of Kerwin White. He was doomed right from the beginning and a quick look at his vignettes from back in the day can only be termed as laughable, to say the least. However, after Eddie Guerrero’s untimely death, Chavo Guerrero dropped the Kerwin White character and Ziggler went back to OVW. After being in a “Male-Cheerleader” group which he wasn’t even a leader of, hardly anyone would’ve guessed that this man would go on to capture the World Heavyweight Championship and US Title twice, and the Intercontinental Title an astounding five times....

It looks as though he’ll be the topic of debate at cafe tables for some time to come. Last week a film of Houellebecq’s first novel, “Extension du Domaine de la Lutte,” (“Whatever”) opened in France. Audiences are flocking to see the story of two computer programmers who set out to give software seminars but end up on a beach contemplating murder and suicide. He’s got plans to record a rock album, using his poems as lyrics....
