The Division: Tools of the Trade

Little does that player realize that despite what that high-power weapon can do, you can still suck with it long after reaching that level threshold...
Other than that, if you can still die from low-level players the same way you die fro high-level players, then the leveling system is only there to justify when you gain access to which weapon/gear you can have in general...

eeeeeh, would they? I always viewed it as the protagonists rising up to the occasion.Fappy said:
step 1: antagonist x (say, frieza) beats up everyone, nobody strong enough to beat him
step 2: protagonist x (say, goku) rises up, permanently unlocks just enough power in the heat of the moment to overpower antagonist x (goku goes super saiyan for example)
step 3: world is saved, enter antagonist y
the punchline is that no matter how bad things get, by power creep rules the good guys will always get juuuust high enough to deal with it

I supppse maybe they missed a foldable stock for the gun.
EDIT: Actually I think they have one.
If it wasn't for those darn meddling hoodlums and their antropomorphic dog... !

Ideal Person: I am the hero who has been tasked with saving the world. You know, the one you are living in?
Store Keeper: That's great, but until you kill the 5 goblins that have infested the local mine, I will have to sell you gear that is slightly better than what you have right now, for slightly more coins than what you have on you right now.

It's even crazier in Crono Trigger, where the weapons of 65 million BC are better than the ones in the 24th century.09philj said:
Kid Buu vs Radditz-Saga Goku.......HA!Fappy said:
I don't know about that...Swap Vegeta from the Saiyajin Saga with Frieza. Goku's most powerful attacks are the Kaioken and a tiny Spirit Bomb, neither of them (even a giant spirit bomb) came close to stopping Frieza. AT BEST you could make the assumption that Frieza would make Goku go SSJ by killing Gohan or something. If that's the case, then the heroes would still get killed if fighting the Androids, Cell, or Buu instead of Vegeta.sid said:
This comic made me think of that scene with the guns in Men in Black. Kind of a good analogy for video game progression.
I like how the bayonet is directly in front of the grenade launcherThe Enquirer said:Well you forgot the flashlightkajinking said:

To be fair, the guns in the Division are pretty free of "rusty old sword"-syndrome. You get real weapons from the start and then just keep going upward and revisiting the same weapons again but with better stats. Sure my MP-5 from the start might suck at level 30, but it looks and fires just like the level 30 MP-5, with the exception of doing less damage. You ain't given "hand-me-down flintlock" at level 1 and then progress through 200 years of weapon history before getting actual modern guns at level 30.
