I played about 9-10 hours in the beta and that got me hooked. The PvP (or really PvPvE) section was easily some of the most enjoyable multiplayer I've played in some time. The fact that it isn't strictly player versus player led to some really fun and intense moments for me. I wasn't really considering the game before the beta, but I've pre-ordered the game and jumped on the hype train.
For those of you in the thread that were worried about not being able to keep up in multiplayer, the Division may actually be for you. It has a much higher time to kill compared to a game like Call of Duty, so you're not dead in less than a second and some strategy is involved. It reminds me of Gears of War or Last of Us gameplay mixed in with something like GTA Online. There aren't any specific game modes in multiplayer, it's simply an area called the Dark Zone, and you choose to do what you want in the area with the potential threat or cooperation of other players in the server.
Here's a good video on what to expect from the multiplayer:
