Division - inquiry, what is it?
Hello, your query touches on several aspects of purchasing and playing PC games. First, it's great you enjoyed The Open Beta—it sounds like you're excited about upcoming updates! Regarding your question about buying from Steam versus downloading locally, it’s important to understand how multiplayer works. Since the game is Uplay-only, it integrates with Uplay even when played through Steam, which means you can still connect with friends online. To find your friend in the game, look for their avatar near you during play sessions. The process isn’t exactly like WOW’s server selection, but since you’re already connected via Uplay, you should be able to join them easily. Let me know if you need more details!
It functions identically as a digital-only purchase—own the physical copy. Insert the disk, install, and access it through services like Uplay, just like a Steam download. Tested the beta, but unsure about reaching out to the developer. Expecting a "contact" feature once the full release arrives.
Sure, I can help with that. If you get a physical copy and install it on your laptop, you should be able to move the game files to your desktop.
The game offered a way to view nearby players through the group management section, allowing you to add their names. However, this raised my worry about location accuracy—especially if someone wasn’t in the same server. I recall hearing about an invite feature that lets you send a request to friends when playing, but I’m not entirely sure how it functions. This is my first experience purchasing a game on Steam or Uplay.
You should be able to play it even after copying it to your desktop. Just use the account you linked it to. As for the game, it seems to be a third-person shooter, similar to Splinter Cell Blacklist.
