Posi 2 is very much the same of that. And yes, it's MUCH better than the old Posi TF.

The fight against the Shadow Simulacrum is great, maybe my favorite boss encounter in the game, and one that is different every time I've run it. Sometimes we stomp them, sometimes they stomp us and we have to rethink our target priorities. I wish they'd use the doppelganger tech more on arcs.

Love fighting those guys. I did that TF tonight and had fun slugging it out with my double.

I still like to run the original Posi. but only solo I take my time to enjoy some of the old school stuff.I still occasionally do the Hollows ignoring my travel powers 
but that's just me

The new Posi, and now Penny Yin tfs are some of my favourite content. In fact, I find myself running posi on alts that HAVE it, which there is no way in hell I would ever have done, for old posi.
There are just sooo many big and small differences between new and old, that make for a better playing experience.
New ones (posi and yin) are almost perfect length. You can speed many of the missions, if people are 50 or in a hurry. But you can also go slow, kill everything and come away with decent xp. (unlike numi, that is utter trash xp if speeding)
The missions are all varied, with maps, objectives and baddies all changing, unlike say..citadel and syn, where its almost the same mission again and again.
I think the worst thing about this content is how utterly shoddy it makes many of the older TFs look.

Word of warning - don't bring 4 or more Time Manipulation characters - the shadow clones will have Chrono Shift.

On a related note, I'd like Black Swan's blue Rikti Monkey shadows to be replaced with plain black humanoid shadows - I think it'd make her group,look more menacing.

I for one prefer the old and always just run it instead. Glad they left that option even though they nerfed merits without really lowering the time.

The old one was great, I used to solo/duo with my wife and run it super fast, had it down perfectly. One of the main reasons I was able to stock up so many merits and recipes back in the day.
I had the perfect 2nd build build on my fire/energy blaster usually had my wife's toon sit at the contact to help with the no cell for the first half, while I did the inside work, except to bring her in for the last mission reward.
Freedom Server - Main = Lil Bug & way too many alts to list
but it felt like half that. I didn't feel the need to stealth to the end or that I was just grinding through.
From start to finish, Posi 1 is just a fun task force.
