Are you planning to play in low settings? Why would an big profile, soon to be released game run at 1440p/144fps on day one? Or you already possess a Pascal card?

Have Ubisoft quietly nuked the PS4 gold edition from everywhere apart from Uplay which still directs you to the PC version when you click the link ?
I am having a hard time finding it anywhere at all... All the stores are selling the standard version apart from GAME who have that limited edition also available.
Can find Xbox and PC gold edition very easy with a simple google search. From the UK.

UK mate not US
Plenty of sleeper agent versions about but i am in interested in all that
Well, well that was a good trailer to stoke the flames.
Will definitely pre order to check out the beta but I'll wait for reviews and Gaf impressions at release. The game has Destiny vibes which is fine but I don't want to get burned long term.
For anyone who played Alpha how was the gunplay?
This game will live or die in that respect and this is what Destiny nailed.
Story could be hit or miss so I'm whatever on that part.

Yea that's really weird for them to do that. :/
Still abit suprised i see so much Destiny in this thread. I have played Destiny for 2500 hours and played the Alpha also alot of this game. But dont expect this game what Destiny should have been etc. You are gonna to be dissapointed. The game is at first a RPG. Just like Fallout, Witcher etc. Story missions, side missions,base building. Sure it has some MMO elements. coop part, hubs etc. But those are not tight to Destiny only.
Well remember this is third person cover shooter, so it kinda doesn't compare
Didn't have that punch or meatiness gears has but it could get to a good spot with more tweaks
I don't see why not. From what I am aware, all campaign missions are instanced to you and your group, so they probably scale based on the size of your group.
Thanks!
I know different genres and all but I just meant that satisfactory feeling of enemy bullet impact and wielding a gun for a TPS, like how Destiny did it great for an FPS.
The shooting has always looked a little "off" to me from videos in the way described but can't really judge as I haven't played.
But, those AREthe things I wanted from destiny.

What specifically about it doesn't look possible?

The same as Watch Dogs,Assassins Creed Unity in that it looks way to sharp and clean to be ingame.
Up until Alpha time, I was expecting this to be fully "Ubisofted" and therefore prepared to loathe it but the closer to release we get the more I'm beginning to feel it. Fortunately my small group of destiny friends feel the same, which is good as I think we've finally had enough of that and this could be a suitable replacement, hopefully theres an equal focus on PvE content going forward.
Gunplay is different to destiny being 3PS and is maybe not as instantly "great", I found the movement/gunplay to be definitely "RPG-like" but compelling and satisfying enough TBH.
[fake edit]
I'm not sure it has the same "hand-cannon-murder-spree-cabal-head-shot" impact that destiny has that makes it so compelling, but it was enjoyable enough. Im afraid I don't normally play/enjoy 3PS so I don't know if its good/bad for the genre, perhaps another game has done it better/reinvented more gunwheels.

GAF eating some crow it seems. Game looks like Destiny without the boring space/sci-fi shit and much better looking locations.
The game isn't out yet...
Destiny is like The Division without boring modern-warfare gadgetery/arsenal and contemporary urban architecture.
See, works both ways.

ACU wasn't downgraded. WD had to be downgraded due to the fact that it was cross gen. Granted, this trailer is probably the PC version. Have to say i'm not looking forward to the inevitable leaked copy with potato videos/poor screenshots thread. We had one for ACU and people were saying it looks worse than AC4...

But with boring human enemies and bosses and overdone modern military gear. Give-and-take.
"Oh boy, an exotic M16 with special camo pattern!"
I think this is on purpose, and that they will list it once Beta expires.
Preorders give you a Beta invitation, and on EU stores you can cancel your preorder at any time without getting billed.
I did this for Destiny.
US store takes your money immediately and doesn't issue refunds, that is why it gets more games on preorder list, and why this game can be bought right now.
These are great sounding impressions, appreciate the feedback.
I never expected Destiny levels of satisfaction as that is more in-your-face with abilities/explosions thanks to sci-fi setting. If the TPS gunplay can match or exceed something like Watch Dogs on "feel" level, then I'll be elated.
I'm similar to you and hope this can replace Destiny as I'm over that game until the sequel.

2 things they didn't show, the map interface, or glass getting pierced.
Those were the most impressive parts of the initial reveal. Really want to see if it still looks like that.

Pretty sure the map interface was changed, but I can't find any proof.
Also the glass getting pierced looks like garbage...or at least it did in the alpha. Hope it improves by the time the game is released

How to get beta access if possible?

Preorder or sign up to the waiting list
Or buy the Ubisoft Weekly Bundle. Includes a Beta key at the Average level.

is there a reason for people saying this? what evidence are there of this being in trouble, did I miss something here?

It's very unlike DayZ. It's WAY more of an RPG than DayZ. The only time it even remotely starts to resemble DayZ is in the darkzone.

AC Unity was never as good as the initial reveals. I've got a decent PC but I'll be amazed if the game is this good even on PC
GAF and Ubisoft.
Though I'm actually a little surprised how little shitposting has been in this thread compared to what Ubi games normally receive.
Point what was different from reveal then.
Nah people making stuff up.
We in EU still have Amazon. I pre-ordered the game on Amazon UK, got the code, canceled the pre-order

Yea it was, (and then some). The final game for instance has a scene with a crowd twice the size of the one in the initial in-engine trailer. Elise looked better in the final game than in the original screenshots. Fog effects stayed in, in-game geometry stayed complex. I hate this "it didn't look as good" nonsense because people are never specific. Unity on consoles didn't look as good as Unity on pc which was what the e3/gamescom demos, and trailers showed.

I dont know. It was during the E3 where they said if you pre order you you get access to the beta. But no way i was doing that. So i just joined the waiting list. And then when the alpha started i suddenly got a code. Maybe the pre orders were bad and they still needed enough people to join. So they took people right away off the waiting list.
Yeah. People should look up "The Execution" mission. Even on PS4 it looks spectacular and truly next-gen. Sure, it runs like crap, but it's still gorgeous. And 1440p Ultra ACU is a truly wonderful experience.

Wish they would confirm the beta date, I need to know if my GPU will be enough.
I have 7870XT which is a cutdown 7950 with more cores than standard 7870, performance wise it is somewhere inbetween.
