Man this game blew my mind when it was revealed at this year's E3. I'll be picking it up day one hopefully on PC but if there's no day 1 PC release it'll be on console--looks too good to wait!

Me and my buddies already got a squad for it, I'm really hoping they don't mess up little things, it looks too good to be true

Im pretty excited for this. I've always wanted a game like this since Day Z, L4D, War Z, a game where it takes all that and puts it so tactical and makes it like how we would in real life.

Oh wow, the game factsheet you just added makes me want to play this even more. I might actually have to get a PS4 if it doesn't come out on PC. I like the fact that this doesn't include zombies or anything similar too.

i feel a bit reserved at this point. Maybe it's just that games like this have had similar promise and failed to deliver too many times. my biggest fear is how they make the world actually feel real, or will it feel like every other mmo where you patiently wait for an area to respawn so you can do the quest there. Hopefully it will have some clever use of instancing on a scale larger then just say, one set "raid" area, in order not to flood the world with players which would ruin the whole idea of a small "elite" team of agents. I mean, if there are more "agents" then npcs on at any given time the whole idea fails apart themeaticly. Also the story behind the setting seems very interesting, but it is also extremely hard to tell these types of stories in a mmo enviroment. I almost find myself wishing this to be a sort of "dark souls" multiplayer experiance, one where you can meet other players but the meat of the game will be a single player one. That being said, if they manage to make this as good as their highly scripted gameplay trailer it will be amazing. But i for one have lost faith in publishers who try to bite off something as big as this until one of them proves me wrong.

I think the MMO idea might be a bit of a misnomer. I could be wrong but I don't think you should expect standard MMO or Planetside 2 amounts of players on a given server. They have to balance between making it an immersive world and not making it a total clusterfuck with people everywhere. I'd expect it to be "massive" in so far as there's probably ~100-200 people on the map at any given time. So, its more "massive" than your standard shooter but I don't think there's any way you're fitting ~5000 people on a single server and not making the game a catastrophe.

Judging from the map at the end of the gameplay trailer, I think each zone will allow up to 64 players in each zone. 32 players from both major factions.

I don't recall Ubisoft referring to any of their upcoming psuedo-MMOs (The Crew, this game, another one I missed) as actual MMOs, so I didn't expect massive player counts on each server in the first place.

I don't know if perma death will be in the game, haven't seen info about that. I think the game would be really great with perma death though, makes you care for your life more.

I think there's going to be a light sprinkling of zombies as the story progresses for each player.

Here's my favourite gif ever now.

@blisse - That gif is great, I was totally pumped when i saw the 'realistic' damage, did you notice the police car lights being destroyed when they are engaging the 'elite' enemy?

We'll see. Seems a bit like GRFS, with a bit more original GR series with Christian Allen style maps, but still includes some cheesy COD/GOW style gameplay, but if the grab cover feature is the only thing then it should be alright. Depends on how they do MP though for me. I hate the queue search for MP vs the old style rooms hosted which was great back in the Christian Allen days. Though I am thinking this game won't live up to what I want it to be. In my opinion Ubisoft is like Blizzard in both companies are looking to capitalize on their own namesake, but have no idea how to make a good game anymore.

Well The Division coming out on PC is certainly good news, I would probably get it on that platform rather than my PS4, especially if the multiplayer is not cross-platform. I have many more potential teammates with a positive IQ on Steam/Origin than I would expect to find on PSN.

Anybody else amped for this? The game looks sick.

Way to stereotype.
