The Division Not Coming This Year? [Jan 07, 2014, 9:06 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Swedish site
Gamereactor has a report (in their native tongue) that Tom Clancy's The
Division will be delayed, though we don't recall an official release date for
the upcoming third-person shooter to miss. The report is based on comments
attributed to an unnamed member of the development team at Ubisoft Massive
railing against a 2014 release date said to have been announced by Ubisoft, and
a translation of his statement calls this "laughable" because the project still
has a long way to go. Ubisoft has not commented on the report. Thanks

That's fine with me. Don't want them to release a beta and pass it as a finished product like a lot of games today.

One step closer to vaporware. It did look too good to be true, at the very least I expected it to be cut way back from open world to smaller levels with some sort of lame hub connecting it all together.
Nah, expect it to be out May 2015, mirroring Watch Dogs announcement/release schedule. Ubisoft's taken a page from Blizzard's old playbook - wow them early, follow up next year, release just before the third year you'd be showing it.

I'm holding off on this until the Love Will Tear Us Apart Again DLC comes out.
Hmm. Wrong Division.

Grr, that sucks. Oh well, hope it's worth the wait.
Agreed. So looking forward to this, but I'd rather it came out late and wowed us rather than released early and shit the bed.

Somehow I thought this was supposed to be out in the March to May timeframe of this year?
Sucks.
I'm not sure where I'd heard it, but I assumed it was summer/late summer.
Oh well. Like with Watchdogs, if they're going to try and turn it into a strong IP, they need to get the first one right, so folks will come back for any sequels. I'd rather play an awesome game a year from now, than one that sucks but ships this March.
Absolutely. I'll wait a year for it to be awesome.
I didn't realize it was 3rd person only game. For some reason I assumed it was being shown in 3rd person to give us a better look at the surroundings. They look fantastic no doubt. But if we can't switch to 1st person to pop a few caps... my anticipation just fell flat. 
Of course that may be the reason it was delayed and I too was under the impression it was a mid-year release. I agree it is far better for them to delay that to release half ass. I just pray Dark Souls 2 is not on the list for another delay.

Yea, that is what we all thought.
