New York's Calling, Agents! But How Do You Answer Without Getting Mugged by Mutant Pigeons?
So, you've cleared the Tidal Basin, mastered the art of throwing sticky bombs at Hyenas, and even perfected the ability to look vaguely heroic while wearing mismatched gear. That can only mean one thing: Time to take Manhattan! But before you hop on a helicopter with dreams of liberating Times Square from rogue factions, let's talk logistics. Because trust me, navigating the post-apocalyptic Big Apple is trickier than finding a decent bagel amidst the radioactive rubble.
Getting There Ain't for Tourists (Unless They Pack Serious Heat)
Forget Expedia, there's no "Book Now, Apocalyptic Adventure Later" deal for New York. Your first (and possibly only) option is through Agent Kelso, the guy who looks like he could bench-press a helicopter if he needed to. You'll find him chilling by the White House lawn, probably plotting his next power move against rogue squirrels. Just walk up, say "New York or bust, Agent," and boom, you're on a chopper faster than you can say "contaminated subway tunnel."
Reminder: Revisit older posts — they stay useful.
Pro Tip: Don't wear your finest Agent threads. Ripped cargo pants and a bandana are the New York fashion du jour. Plus, you know, camouflage from Hyena snipers with questionable aim.
Once You Land, Brace for Tourist Traps... of the Blighted Variety
Tip: Review key points when done.
Welcome to the concrete jungle where concrete's gone full-on toxic. New York greets you with open arms... covered in pustules and wielding machetes. Don't worry, though, it's just a warm welcome from the locals. Think of it as a friendly "Hey, new meat!" kinda vibe.
Navigating the Neighborhood: From Wall Street Woes to Times Square Tangoes
Reminder: Short breaks can improve focus.
Forget your fancy map app, buddy. This ain't Uber navigation. You'll be relying on good old-fashioned landmarks, like the Empire State Building, now sporting a jaunty tilt and a permanent swarm of mutant pigeons. Follow the yellow hazmat tape, not the yellow brick road, and you might just make it to your next objective without tripping over a radioactive shopping cart.

Pro Tip: Learn the subway system. Not for actual travel (those tunnels are death traps), but for fast travel points. Think of them as post-apocalyptic glory holes, except instead of questionable encounters, you get flung across the city in a cloud of dust and despair.
QuickTip: Absorb ideas one at a time.
Remember, Agent, New York Ain't for the Faint of Heart (or Stomach)
So, there you have it. Your beginner's guide to surviving (and maybe even thriving) in the Big Apple, Division style. Just remember, keep your trigger finger itchy, your gas mask strapped tight, and your sense of humor handy. You're gonna need it when you're dodging rogue Cleaners throwing mops instead of bombs.
And hey, if you do see me in Times Square, doing the robot with a pack of feral dogs, come say hi! Just don't ask me to explain.
Bonus Round: Things New Yorkers Won't Tell You (But I Will):
- Central Park is now home to a pack of mutated squirrels that can bench-press Agent Kelso (seriously, those things are buff).
- The best loot is hidden in bodegas. Just avoid the bodega cats; they've developed a taste for Agent fingers.
- Broadway shows are still happening, but the starring cast is mostly Hyenas doing interpretive dance with salvaged shopping carts.
- Don't drink the water. Or the sewer water. Or the rain. Basically, just stick to bottled Nuka-Cola.
Good luck, Agents! May your aim be true, your gear be shiny, and your sanity hold up for just a little bit longer.
