"What console was used?"
"Don't know"
L oh fucking L.
Lol. She is unbelievable. I can't tell if she really does know and doesn't want to say. Or if she truly doesn't know and has to comment that it looks next gen either way.

right, saying a game by another developer looks like crap is not slamming at all...
:/
Companies could do with being a bit more straightforward, but consumers could also do with being a little less overzealous.

This looks good.
I want to see the game in motion myself though.
Clearly the industry has done nothing wrong. No budget bloat or mismanagement. No graphical downgrades. No executive level fuck-ups. No eight month delays.
It's just those yucky consumers and their entitlement.

Disappointing, but I'll still buy it if it's a good game.
We can fully expect the same thing will happen with the Division correct?

You're right, it is getting really off topic, but what shes saying is making it worse. People want answers to questions, and the answers people are getting aren't helping at all.
Best to ignore what shes saying.
She's a gem.
a little different....as in a completely different city/atmosphere
I think it's most likely for the game to look like it did during last years Sony e3 conference. Which means good, but simply not as good as in the reveal
WAIT.

i think so.
no way it will look like in the tech demo.
it wont be on last gen consoles, so maybe it will look better but it`s Ubisoft sooo probably not^^
She's just doing her job. People shouldn't be giving her a hard time; it's not like she had anything to do with the making of the game.
The internet won't stop until someone ends up unemployed. Let's start by making this a bigger deal than it actually is.
People don't want answers. People know the deal already. They are just trying to fan the flames at this point.
its no longer chicago but a virtual clone of it with a different name and rural areas.....XD
660 vs 670

660 vs 750 Ti
http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/1039?vs=1130
The 750 Ti's strength is that it performs that well while using considerably less power and produces less heat. 670 is quite a lot stronger though. A $200 Maxwell GPU will be very interesting to see.
Yo, if she loses her job or gets in trouble it'll have nothing to do with what gamers think about what she said, it'll have everything to do with what the client thinks about what she said. Comparison marketing is frowned upon in a lot of industries and if the powers that be at Ubisoft aren't into it, that's basically it once you badmouth a competing game.
A thread about visual downgrades, and then discussions about visual downgrades happen. Gotta pick my bits of brain around the room with how much my mind was blown.
Considering the mission structure and gameplay of the past few AC titles, it's sort of a toss-up.

In general there's plenty of stuff that indicates the game was downgraded quite a bit visually. That gif is just the easiest way to show it since it's two very similar scenes.
But just look at that picture in the consctruction area with the wall texture that looks like something from an ugly 360/ps3 game
Or how the explosion in the car chase gif lookd like shit compared to the explosion in the gif from the '12 reveal. it's so obvious that it's just some flat textures. The '12 explosion was much better visually and technically.
Look how stale and lifeless the streets look. There's hardly any people. Things don't seem to move in the wind unlike in the reveal trailer where things moving in the wind really helped make the world come alive ( this might be a matter of weather conditions though )
Look at how flat and dull the lighting looks. This is honestly the biggest problem, and the main reason why people thought and hoped it was the 360/ps3/wii u version before the ps4 confirmation. It looks like lighting found in games on the last gen consoles. The lighting in the footage before the delay was much better.
On Twitter. Exact source is buried somewhere in those 50 pages.
That's NOT TRUE.
Sony hasn't confirmed anything about this.
You are talking about @PlayStationDK (second or third page) BUT they showed the official trailer and that scene is not there.
Is this a newer gif? It looks great.
A straight GTA V port would look better than that, seriously, and that's no good.
It really is disappointing compared to what we first saw.

Yes, we are too sensitive these days, but to be fair she was the one who made that comment. She could have made her point without talking about any specific game.
I wasn't talking about people on Gaf specifically, look at how many people are tweeting her, people are commending the game, questioning it, bashing it, or anywhere in between.
That footage is from this preview http://www.everyeye.it/ps4/articoli/watch-dogs_hands-on_21862. Not in English, but the footage is what you're looking for. Again, it doesn't look awful, but the feel of a "living, breathing world" from the intial reveal is absent from this footage and that's what is throwing people off. All of the atmospheric effects seem watered down or stripped away completely.

The Fox Engine was designed around this concept.
God knows how scaling works for what ever engine Watch_Dogs runs on.
Here is the "PS4 confirmation" thing...

Bullshit, that trailer doesn't show that scene...

It seems to me that there's absolutely no middle-ground to any point of discussion any more. If the graphics aren't awesome, they are utter shit. If its not exactly what people want to hear/read, the person saying it must be the worst...

What they need to do is to show us the same mission that was in the reveal demo. If there weren't any downgrades then that would be the best way to prove it
I have acknowledged it and explained why the general assumption is it's also from the PS4 in an earlier post.
I found the WiiU target render, if you're interested.
What game is that?
Frame City Killer?

Oh, oops.
And that's not going to happen.
They are probably going to keep quiet for as long as they can.
True. To be honest I only enjoyed 1 AC title myself. The previews atleast seem like the delay was atleast good for the gameplay of the game. Time will tell.
I just didn't see this being that big of a deal. 50 pages usually get thrown to betrayltons not downgradeatons.
You're right about the hyperbole in this regard, but you have to admit that the GIF in the OP does in fact look horrible for next-gen footage (if that's even what it is).
