The Division 2 development team has notified players that a recent update has caused an error that is now preventing the team from updating the game at all.
The Division 2 development team took to Twitter to explain the unfortunate situation, saying it was caused when they were trying to deal with a localization issue. While they were fixing that particular problem, another one popped up that “brought down the build generation system for The Division 2.” This, in turn, broke the whole updating system.

“Dear Agents, last week, we shared news that the season would be delayed due to a localization issue,” The Division 2 development team wrote. “This past Saturday, in the process of creating the update which would resolve the issue, we encountered an error that brought down the build generation system for The Division 2. As a result, we cannot update the game until this system has been rebuilt.”
In the past, when a season was delayed, the team had been able to extend activities from the previous season. However, they are unable to do this as they can, once again, make no updates to the game until “the build generation system is restored.”
“We are working to resolve the situation as quickly as possible,” the team wrote. “We have made good progress over the last 96 hours and have been able to restore critical aspects of the system and will share the timeline for resolution when available. We deeply appreciate your understanding and patience and will share our in-game compensation plan details soon.”
The Division 2 was getting ready to begin Season 11: Reign of Fire on February 7, and hopefully it won’t be too long to wait for its actual launch. The team promised another update will arrive tomorrow, February 10, so stay tuned The Division 2’s Twitter account and IGN for the latest updates.
