Division 2 9.1 Update Targeting May Release, But No Info On New Raid Yet

Ubisoft has released a new video on the state of The Division 2. The video, below, sees the team discussing the upcoming Title Update 9.1 patch, connectivity issues, warhound convoy, and more.

First and foremost, Ubisoft has nothing to say about The Division 2's upcoming raid. "We don't have any information about the raid yet," community developer Chris Gansler said. "My goal is to give you at least two weeks of a heads up so you'll have plenty of time to look at getting ready for the raid and all that stuff." Gansler went on to say that the raid should come packaged in Title Update 10, but there's currently no word on when this drops for PC, PlayStation 4, Stadia, and Xbox One.

Ubisoft is continuing its investigation into The Division 2's connectivity issues. Gansler said the Delta/Foxtrot errors should occur less frequently following a recent backend update. However, the Delta errors persist in general and the team is "currently struggling to figure out what the underlying causes [are]." There's no word on when these connectivity problems will be fully resolved, but they are the team's "highest priority."

Title Update 9.1 is slated to drop in May, though Gansler said that "it might be mid-May, it might be a little bit later, depending on how tests are going." Next week's State of The Division 2 should feature a definitive release date, where the team will also talk about all of 9.1's changes. Gansler said the patch will look at "NPC aggressiveness, NPC target accuracy, grenades flying around and hitting you all the time. So accuracy there as well." The update will also include bug fixes and adjustments from player feedback.

Ubisoft is aware of the warhound convoy XP bug in The Division 2 but doesn't consider the problem an "exploit." Gansler said the activity, in which you're tasked with taking down highly armed guards transporting a secured weapons cache, is "tuned too generously at this point." The team is considering how it will change when Title Update 9.1 arrives sometime this May.

The team also talked about The Division 2 League, free gifts you can receive just by logging in before May 5, the manhunt targets, and more.

Ubisoft recently dropped Title Update 9 for The Division 2 across all platforms. The 10 GB update makes a number of changes to the looter-shooter, such as adjusting Named Items and Talents, implementing a new Exotic reconfigure feature, addressing a variety of bugs, and more.
