They also give players a good reason to explore the nooks and crannies of the map.
Search and destroy and HVT missions, when they function correctly, add a much needed solo option for players looking to gather end-game items, including matching gear sets.
#SEARCH AND DESTROY TOM CLANCY UPDATE#
The good news is that the time we have spent with the update so far is promising. VG24/7 reports that Ubisoft is aware of this specific issue and is currently working on a fix. Similar issues cropped up after the last update. Most troubling are reports that some players are missing one or more of their characters, and that daily missions are failing to refresh. We spent an hour last night trying to get into the Clear Sky raid only to be turned back again and again by these glitches. After these resets, the user interface appears to brighten or double and the game itself slows to a crawl. Sometimes players are returned to the start of the mission, other times all the way back to the nearest safehouse. Many users are reporting that when they attempt to start Clear Sky the raid simply resets itself endlessly. More frustrating are the new raid's matchmaking woes. We started, and completed, our first HVT mission three times yesterday afternoon before the named enemy actually showed up at the mission's end. The only solution seems to be attempting the mission again and again. When they do unlock, named bosses often fail to materialize, leaving players empty-handed.
But when some players turn in their hard-won Intel, HVT missions refuse to unlock. One of the PvE systems, called High Value Targets, relies on a new currency called Intel. Many users, including Polygon staff, are experiencing persistent issues with stability and matchmaking in multiple game modes. The big release - called update 1.2 or Conflict - contains new player-versus-player and player-versus-environment content, as well as a second centerpiece raid called Clear Sky. Some users are even reporting missing characters. Tom Clancy's The Divisionlaunched its second high-profile update just yesterday, unleashing a plague of game breaking bugs across multiple platforms.
