Ubisoft has released the first-ever major content pack for its latest video game, Tom Clancy's "The Division." The Patch 1.1 game add-on, called the "Incursion," includes a lot of exciting in-game changes and new features that were well-received by the video game's fans. One of the most notable changes after installing the expansion pack is the 100 percent drop rates for high-quality materials after defeating a monster. Another feature introduced in the update is loot trading, which has been requested by "The Division" players for some time now.

The latest patch update introduced to the players a new game scenario called the "Incursion mission" which is quite different from the main gameplay. However, the feature that really captured the interest of the gamers is the high-end loot from the monster drops. The Bitbag reported Ubisoft announcing earlier that they are planning to make high-end loot a guaranteed drop when a player kills a rare and strong enemies with Level 30 and above. Upon the release of the new patch, players reported to looting at least three high-end drops from one enemy alone. However, Ubisoft later on issued a fix for the "100% drop rate" feature, which means that the game developer did not intend the drop rate to be adjusted that high.

Enemies dropping loot can be seen in popular hack n' slash video games like the "Diablo" series, and the new loot trading feature of "The Division" patch update resembles that of "Diablo 3." The loot trade has rules where gears can only we traded between players within the same squad at the time the item was dropped. This feature makes group hunting for precious items very helpful.

In other news, a few players reported a few bugs following the "Incursions" content pack release. Some players noted that their characters were completely wiped out after having the patch update, Metro UK reported. Ubisoft has addressed the issues and promised the gamers to fix the problems as soon as possible.
