It took PC players less than six hours to clear The Division 2's raid, Operation Dark Hours, but one lucky PS4 squad has now finally joined those ranks after completing the game's toughest activity a whole 48 hours after it launched.
Via confirmation through the in-game leaderboard, the team of Bloodshy, Inkist, Tico79, Jaqev, Hansome Lancer, AZPrimeminister, I'm Bats, and H2K Predator beat Operation Dark Hours in 36 hours and 42 minutes. That wasn't one and a half days of straight gameplay, however, as the eight-man team took advantage of checkpoints located after defeating bosses within the raid in order to take breaks.
It's quite the achievement, especially so when you consider that the console version has been criticized for not offering the controller accuracy that some of its engagements require. The first boss encounter, with a chap named Boomer, has been causing squads the majority of problems as taking him down requires shooting specific armour pieces and passing agro between players. It's incredibly hard, but at least we know the feat is possible now.

Looks like they got gud.
There was a 24 minutes run on PC just recently.
That’s too long. This need a nerf bad.
I guess congrats on the persistence? It clearly needs fixing still.
There's nothing wrong with a bit of grinding.
A team with some actual decent PSN names.
Destiny's first raid was amazing and since mmo shooters raids have become worse with convuluted maps and mechanics. My enjoyment of that raid was partly because if you had 3 good teammates you could eventually get through it as cannon fodder.
This division malarkey has put me right off. I really wanted to pull the plug a few days ago to help the lads in the msg thread on ps4. Not anymore they would hate to have me incumber them like carrying a fridge through Fallout 3.
Mr. Blue Scout Rifle is clearly dissing us here mate @kyleforrester87
@Wesker lol
I have been wanting to attempt it but I lack the motivation or desire to manually make a team of 8 via LFG and in game invites.
Shame there's no matchmaking.
This is just proof that The Division 2 on consoles is not a very good game for many reasons. As I said before, the devs only care about PC..
