There's only one way to dominate the DZ, get two groups of four and gank everyone in sight like a bunch of pricks.

This was like the best quality IGN video i've seen in like as long as I remember? where'd you get this guy?

A quality ign video? Who is this guy?!

dont turn rogue. If youre going to kill a player, kill a rogue. It makes you feel like a hero and productive.

I feel like the DZ is going to cause a lot of people to rage quit and receive some nasty messages.

When everyone is putting their loot on the heli and a grenade comes from nowhere.

My body is ready for this game.

How to save New York when The Division agents are killing each other for loot? The marketing trailers bill the player as a hero, but the game encourages you to become a villain. So what is the endgame? It's just one person with the best loot standing on top of a mountain of corpses, friend or foe.

*''Don't Trust Anyone''* First thing i do is find a team of 4 random

A very well done video. I think we've found our Division coverage go-to guy. Keep it up James!

Really enjoy this one, the voice is clear and adds a little bit of fun to the gameplay. besides the fact that you can tell that the guy knows his DZ stuff XDD anyway great work and great video Agent...

Just got the game yesterday and ready to start today. Thanks for the tips

What are the music tracks in this video?

While going rogue may seem fun to some players, I find that working together let's everyone benefit a lot more. Another thing, who goes in the extraction Zone all at once and have no one watching their backs? I see rogue agents more like trolls, a fun concept but I am sure it's not fun on the receiving end when you have tons of superior loot only to lose it to some douchebag who'd rather take the easy route than working for the good loot. I usually go into the DZ with 3 or 4 other players and we tend to scout the area or take turns guarding from a safe distance rather than all rushing the extraction chopper all at once, that's like shooting fish in a barrel.

Most important Dark Zone tip; DO NOT ENTER ALONE.... ;p

This is a great quality video. Wow nice Content, Narration, and Tips

Is it just me or is everyone I run into in the DZ incredibly friendly and works together. Moreover, I'm on the 2nd tier of the DZ

Amazing work by the narrator. Please, IGN, more of this guy.

The art of going rogue 101 tips & tricks. I love this game but not gone into the DZ just yet, as I've just started the game a few hours in. But I will definitely be going into the DZ at some point, I'll be spending hundreds of hours with The Division & there year one DLC will keep me going for months to come.

I seriously can not remember a game that ate me up like this one. I played every day of the open beta, and I can't wait to get back there.

i dont know how long he spent in the DZ but to generate fund fast and efficiently. going rogue is last thing you wanted to do. you lose more then you gain more often. hunting rogues is the optimal method.

im guessing that as soon as you get in to the Dark Zone you just need to start trying to kill any one you see there's no point in trying to make allies unless you brought them with you

I played the closed beta but I never figured out how to use incindiary or explosive ammo on ps4

I run up to them and tap "view player" as fast as possible followed by "invite to group" i find it flatters most "iffy" looking people and tends to make them a friend rather than a paranoid "possible future enemy" trust me it works like a charm. Much better than awkwardly starring at each other wondering if the other ones trying to jump you or if he's waiting for the extraction too. lol

I learned to always keep at least two lookouts on the extractions during the closed beta

Dominate in the dark zone . 1 Hopefully you don't run into a hacker. 2 . Hopefully you don't run into a group of people who exploited a bug and now have end game gear giving them a massive advantage over legit players.

i have seen 2 groups of 4 team up twice to make a group of 8 people. oddly enough they were super friendly and helped me extract :P

Great video! This James guy is awesome

Also something that worked for me is to avoid all human contact, when you get something good to to dz 1 west extraction point and start it and sit in the subwayWhen it gets to thirty or twenty seconds use a pulse to see if anyone is waiting, if they are just run and wait for a while then try again

This really is a good video. Thanks

is there split screen in this game?

when we get killed in the darkzone, do we lose ALL our Dz funds? or just a bit of it?

Is the online servers back online now for the free beta?

I was in a group of 4 then two Rouge's came and helped us by leveling up and getting some great gear. We were able to do the supply drop the 1st and 2nd time. The third time they killed all of us lol.

This video genuinely encapsulates what it means to be in the dark zone

See, this is why I sub to IGN. Every once in a while we will get a video like this.

What gun are you using is that SCAR-L?

What makes the DZ a tense place is the open world chat. If your not in a group chat like Xbox Party or whatever playstation uses, once you run close enough to another player you can openly talk amongs them with no need to connect to them. think of it as a bubble. you can openly talk to any player (thats not in a group chat) if they are in like 100 feet of you. Once they pass through your bubble, you cant hear them anymore, but just running by and saying 'whatsup' is common place. Although having everyone in the dark zone able to talk to you in an engagement is a bold move. There will be ALOT of nasty things passed back and forth.

Damn...If only I had somebody to play with..oh well. Back to "Wheel of Fortune-Division Edition"

This looks so freaking amazing.

Don't mind the rogues really. Whats annoying are certain spots in the DZ that have only one way to get to and makes it difficult for people to take them out. The most common strategy I saw rogues doing is to camp on top of any building with only one entry point and kill anyone walking around that street. You can't flank them, only way to hurt them is to shoot right in front of them where they are all looking at, and even if you manage to down one, the guy next to him/her will immediately revive them. I'm hoping the abilities that were not part of the beta will help alleviate this or make sure there is not a popular camp spot that is abused by adding in more than one way to get to it.

that moment in the dz when you get sandwiched between two huge AI groups in a shootout with no useful cover, no med kits, and low health......... when in doubt run like hell and hope you don't get shot

This narrator was a gift from the commentary gods

BEST TIPS EVER THANK U

Do you lose your weapons that you go in with from outside of the dz when you die in the dz? Because that's my only worry...

Man.... the meaning of the DZ isnt always to go rogue,

Great video, except the Rogues nowadays are usually running Classified Striker or Nomad with the House or a maxed out LWM4. 😂

I learned to prioritize my target. Like kill the player that seemed to be the most tanky or the one with the highest DPS first, when they're in groups. Only going off of what I could tell when they were in combat was difficult to learn but it really helps.

very thancks you😉

Hi guys, I was just wondering what level I need to be to play with my level 30 friend in the dark zone. Any answers would be appreciated :)

what gun is he using?

I never tried to give up in the Dark Zone but seriously, what happens when I give up instead of bleeding out?

Good job IGN, make sure this is a shoot on sight game.

sony and microsoft are going to make a lot of money on controllers.

can we play pvp on ps4 with xbox 1

Playing this single player....and loving it!!! Hope there's single player content on the way.

Shoot at their feet and sc are them into shooting you and when they go rogue kill them for a quick loot gain. Also if you see some poor sap doing an emote toss an incendiary, sticky bomb/mine, and aim center mass for a good mag dump.. just don't do it with more than two other agents around. I did it just messing around with rogue and lost everything in a few seconds from the five agents around. Rogue also works best in a group.. to keep your timer up rotate the role of "bullet to the knee" and shoot him with your weakest sidearm in the knee/foot so he won't die. Did this for awhile with a group of 8/9. Eventually though we had a group come after us and we all ended up rogue. We got good loot though. Rogue is worth the challenge as a solo or group.

I found it very interesting in the dark zone I own this game for the Xbox one and only encountered 3 bad rouge agents everyone else has been good to me the game is awesome

Nice video!

Use combat medic and the critical save. If you are below your last third and you use the med kit you will be on full health instantly.

What is the maximum reward when you survive Rogue Status Rank 5? Has anyone ever achieved it at all?

"When in doubt, run" Thanks IGN- I guess I'll be running non-stop then. I'm gonna be the friggin' "Forest Gump" of the DIVISION

how to enter dark zone?anyone can help me..what need to enter?thanks

It's hard when you first enter the dank zone on March 31st and everyone is already happy with their gear and make it a mission to make sure I can only sneak one purple out a day :/

Can someone tell me how the bloody hell he get the pink came already and that nice blue/yellow one, haven't seen it??

I always follow one rule when I am in the dark zone. If there are more the 2 people at the extraction point besides your squad or yourself, avoid extraction or kill them off.

I can't wait , can we have the 8th of march today already

If i bring my own gun to the darkzone and If I die will I drop that gun that I brought before entering the darkzone

I've noticed in the ps4 one (I'm not sure how it is for other platforms) that the dark zone has too many people so if you go rogue you almost always get hunted by everyone.

Went into Dark Zone for the first time as a Level 13, came a cross two Rogue agents on Manhunt, had to run away from every NPC, lessons learned

does the open beta means, free beta?

Why can't I take my grenades in the DZ? They disappear when I enter.

If being chased by rogues, set down a seeker mine equipped with fire bombs and a flame turret. the rogues will have a problem sprinting to track you. then run for the farthest hiding hole.

ayyyyy open beta this weekend!❤

going subway when rogue isnt really a good idea, maybe it was early in the beta, people dont know the place, but in the last few hours of the beta every rogue running to the subway ended up being quickly surrounded and killed more easily than the other option. The city offer more escape route and if you really need to make a stand there are a few good spot on the map with only one entrance so you cannot be surrounded.

when the open beta goes live guns are going to start poppin off in the dark zone💯

great Video

We were with 8 friends in the dark zone ionce and it was hell of a fun xD . We dominated the Beta Dark Zone.

the dark zone scares me. anyone ever played Runescape and being in the wilderness? this brings back scary memories

I noticed you are able to walk into those vendors whilst having a contaminated loot bag on you. Is that another way to extract? Just.... Walk out?

All of these worked for me

Even if you get your DZ funds taken from you upon your demise, no big deal as you can exchange your in game currency for DZ funds, provided your base of operations has a certain upgrade in the Tech Wing. Also there really is no need to actually venture through the Dark Zone (aside from DZ ops, discovering territories, and unlocking safe houses and vendors) as the game makes it easy for players to acquire higher quality gear such as purples at your base of operations once your Tech Wing has a certain upgrade. As far as legendaries go, as long as you have the aforementioned Tech Wing upgrade you can exchange your in game currency for DZ currency and purchase those awesome legendaries at will!

SENT SHOTGUN OP OP MAN LOVE IT SO MUCH!

can't wait to hope back in division

Best observation/ Tip. Kill enough while rogue and nobody will want to fight you anymore

Is there anyone that has done a video like this post launch? I ask because step 6 was spend your DZ cash... I would but every DZ vendor you go to requires you be lvl dz 30 to buy an item?

[comment removed by IGN]

I really like these tips about the Dark Zone from Division's Dark Zone where the Dark Zone is a good place to get Dark Zone points. .................. the joke is that he said dark zone a lot.

I can't wait any longer I want this game! I know IGN hypes up the game and tells us positive things about the game, and still gives it a 6.

Lesson #1: Never go into the DZ alone. Lesson #2: When you have their backs turned to you firmly plant your dagger into them.

nice vids,

I've learned that I should NEVER go Rouge, I would (instead to account for it) make fake extractions to lure people who aren't Rouge yet, but are looking into it. then when they proceed to shoot me or something I quickly heal the damage and fire back with a LMG, suppressing them (this doesn't always work though)

duse anyone whant to play the division to do the dark zone or free roam or missions

I play on Xbox and I must say 95% of players won't shoot and they 40% ask if you are friendly whilst you are rogue. Nice community :)

This just supports my policy for not forming anything more than a temporary alliance with people you don't know IRL. That way they're less likely to kill you, and if they do you can get them back later.

I'm dz level 22 along with my actual game rank and I keep getting killed a ton by the dz NPCs

in all my time in the dark zone I have learned one thing strength in numbers me and my friends had 2 groups of 4 running around the dark zone killing boss after boss for fun its so easy with numbers

I play solo most of my time, so going rouge wasn't an option, running was my best bet. equip a grande while running will make you more agile and you will run faster, that is my share of tips from the beta, see you at launch agents

went into the DR and a random guy was taking on like 11 NPC and I decided I'd help him, from that point we never left one another until we left the DZ
