Wow, how has nobody called bullshit yet? Maybe your work has a limit on streaming bandwidth... Maybe that 100m connection you overheard someone talking about is backhaul to a datacenter that has a small internet pipe. You definitely have no idea what you're talking about.

I work on a daily basis with the network guys (I'm the CISO). I do have the routers and FW config, I even wrote the rules for the latter. Believe me, I know the network setup around, and I do meet with our upstream ISP guys on a quarterly basis for cooperation on various projects.
Oh, and I do get more than 6 Mbyte (55Mb) with Steam everytime there's a game that updates at work instead of at home (where I get only 2.3 Mb on cable). And that's because the data comes from Valve thru a different BGP path (check that name on google for a detailed explanation) than the Youtube stuff. One of those pipes on our ISP is large enough. One is not.
Been working on networks since 1984 (X25/BITNET) and full on IP since 1990. Now, if you asked me about Java programming (I'm stuck at the C level, and I even hate C++) or the merits of hardware acceleration for video codecs, I'd be clueless. But networks?
Executive summary, tl;dr: Sometimes when Youtube is shit, it's not because your connection is shit, it might be your ISP who does not want to pay for a Google guzzling pipe.

Very cool would love to see a dayz map overlay since it seems to take forever to go anywhere or see anyone. With 2000+ people should be some good times to be had.
Video 13 of the same guy on youtube shows that they are releasing for PC as we already knew; however they he said it is not a port, but a full fledged release.

That's what every developer says nowadays. It's meaningless until we get it in our hands and see for ourselves.

Stop being mean to me, nanananana don't want to hear you want to believe a real release!! I hope if they do a port its good enough, I really don't want to buy a PS4 for one game. To be honest I really don't want to buy a PS4 because I suck using controllers now. Hate getting older and out of practice. Go a few months of not picking up a controller and I cannot hit a barn.
Looks like I need to dial back my excitement for this game a bit. On top of the very little information available, looks to be delayed until 2015.
Considering the lack of information on the game this leaked release delay makes sense. They just aren't that far along.

The Division delayed to 2015
Remember that rumor where an Ubisoft employee used the word "laughable" to describe the 2014 launch window for The Division?
As it turns out, it was pretty much spot on.
"As you have noticed, The Division is not included into our full-year guidance," Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot said during today's financial call. "It will now be released in calendar 2015. We will provide more information on this highly anticipated new brand at E3."
This is depressing I so want to play this.

I agree this year it would have been by next year you have other games some with similar next gen features.

while i don't really consider division an MMO (more of a lobby game like diablo, destiny, etc) it looks like the PC port is gonna be held back so it doesn't look better than the console versions

ubisoft did the same thing with watch dogs, hilariously they left the code in the game so hackers have turned on shit that makes the game look way better.

Well, guess what? If you do have to downgrade performance for the PC to make it look equivalent to consoles, then maybe it's not people thinking that consoles aren't as powerful as PC. Maybe they really are less powerful than a PC. And it's time for people to realize that, yes, the thing that costs half the price of a PC rig is not more powerful than the PC rig.WhatIfGaming_sl said:

Someone that actually believes a console is more powerful than a PC is pants on head retarded. A Console might be better than your average PC, but no where near the capability of what a person involved in Top Tier PC Gaming would have. Ultra settings on everything, such as Call of Duty: Ghosts, the newest Crysis etc. The Division, if not tuned down, is going to look incredible on its best settings on the PC. (At least I hope!)
