The Division: Awaiting “permanent solution” for absent daily missions.
About an hour ago, @TheDivisionGame tweeted this message:
“We are aware that Daily Missions are missing once again today. A permanent solution to this recurring problem is being looked into”.
This is referring to a glitch which has been an ongoing issue since the game introduced its Incursion expansion. Yes, the same expansion that brought us the dreaded Falcon Lost mission and the exploits that followed.
As it says in the name, daily missions are supposed to refresh everyday however, it appears that they have not been operating that way for a significant period of time now. Many reports confirm that some daily missions have overstayed their welcome for as long as three days, depriving fans of the fresh experiences and rewards that are promised by Ubisoft. By completing a daily mission, players will receive Phoenix Credits – an in-game currency used to buy valuable and expensive gear. Without the daily missions updating and rotating as they should, along with a number of other hacks and exploits that still remain in the game, this has left hundreds of fans feeling extremely frustrated.
The alleged reason of the missing daily mission rotation was reportedly due to a problem concerning missing files on the game’s server. Despite the fact that this problem was identified a few weeks ago, after a number of supposed patches, it is still hindering players.
With regards to other exploits, it has been reported that players that have been taking advantage of the various hacks in the game have been sent a notice by Ubisoft. This is supposed to signify that Ubisoft are onto them however, it still seems like it may be a bit of an empty threat on their part. A new and somewhat improved cheat detection system has supposedly been implemented, dishing out a fourteen-day ban to anyone caught cheating. Repeat offenders will then receive a permanent ban. However, with experts doubting The Division’s client model, it appears that, in reality, it will be incredibly difficult for them to curb cheating.
