Support NeoGAF

[NullPointer]

There's no stealth in this game right? Can't even crouch, right?

Nope, which makes me wonder whether silencers are even in the game as mods/attachments, and if so, what they do.

 

[Grief.exe]

The Dark Zone is SUCH a fun concept, I am laughing all the way to my stash every time the carebears whine about it

Have you ever played DayZ or any of the survival genre on PC?

Looks like we will be able to get a couple of GAF squads working together too.

Suppressors are in the game. Saw them in that Angry Joe video if I remember correctly. As for no crouching, that fucking sucks and this should be a bigger complaint than enemies taking two clips of bullets to kill. Oh well.

Will there be some kind of guilds in this game?
I presume that we won't be able to attack our own guild members in the dark zone?

 

[Ricky Ricardo]

...wut.

Compared to actual gaming rigs, there's a lot of truth there.

The Police & Hunter gear looks cool.

Guys

I cant seem to find the area to input the code? any ideas?

They said in the Angry Joe video that there would not be clan support.

We would also have to be extremely cognizant of our attacks when running multiple squads, since you can accidentally damage others you are working with.

no clans or guilds...you can attack the members of your group (if you drop group) in the Dark Zone

try it in another browser

it should ask you to pick a platform and then login to Uplay...after that you just enter the code and that's all

Friendly fire is cool, but the no clan/guild is kinda unexpected for an mmo.

I thought I saw in a one of the recent videos, where the dev said that to go rogue against your teammates, you would have to drop group.

They reduce threat
So you can let your tank buddy get all the attention

First of all, it's not an MMO.

It's an RPG.

I know. We had a long discussion about that on Destiny.
I just gave up and go along with people who claim it's an mmo.

Push back against ignorance.

 

[ViciousDS]

Yes that paramedic gear looks pretty fricken sweet. Also knowing my friends.....I'll need to be thee healer as not many of them seem to know what that is lol

 

[Mozendo]

Anyone know if your uPlay name is what other players will see?
For some reason my uPlay name changed to guest-[random numbers and letters] and Ubi says they can't do a damn thing about it.
Edit: On PC

Use a proxy, then just input the code "AGENTORIGINS" (without quotes), and it will give you a cd-key to put into uplay (the client) if you are on PC. Not sure about consoles.

1-Log into your Uplay account: https://uplay.ubi.com/#!/en-US/
2-Go into Account settings
3-Press the Edit button (the Pencil icon) near the top right corner of the information box to change the username.
4-Edit username

Doesn't surprise me that Ubisoft isn't knowledgeable in their own infrastructure and it doesn't surprise that you didn't do a 5 second Google search because I had this exact issue 3 hours ago and I didn't go bothering Ubisoft about it. Sorry if I sound angry but you really should have looked this up.

 

[Primethius]

Compared to actual gaming rigs, there's a lot of truth there.

But still largely irrelevant to the initial post.

Edit: I'm largely on a blackout for the game. Do we have an official beta date yet? Last I checked, it was end of the month.

That's just display name on the uPlay client.
The account name is what's shown in the online game modes, so even though my name on the uPlay client is Mozendo, whenever I play Watch_Dogs, Far Cry 3 co-op, etc I'm still displayed as Guest-XXXXXXXX

Edit: Guess I'll just make a new account and see if Ubi can transfer my games

 

[kriskrosbbk]

I have an X1 beta key.Anyone willing to exchange for a PS4 one by any chance?

28th for X1 and 29th for PC/PS4

That's because those are legacy games according to Ubisoft. Things like Siege display your new name, Mozendo in-game.

Decreases your threat (good if playing a healer).

Seems to be the Legacy name shenanigans I read about. (I'm new to Uplay)

I'm assuming the enemies have an aggro range where they will repsond to shots and suppressors make that smaller. The 27 minute gameplay video has them using suppressors at one point toward the end.

Rather funny to call watchdogs a legacy game....for the ubisoft client.

Eyyy, a question. This is my first online experience with Ubisoft--I am playing in PS4; do I have to do something like register in Uplay or something like that in order to get online with this game? It's not going to be like say, in Bloodborne, where all you need is just PSN to connect with other people?

 

[cripterion]

Euro based devs, publishers but already freebies for North America?

I know the game is based in NYC but c'mon now, why restrict it to NA? The police set looks good.

I have indeed played many many hours of both mod and standalone.

You can usually register in-game. Ubisoft games send you to uplay through the main menu!

Yeah it's weird innit.
I would assume it'll be global eventually.

Nice to see a lil bit of Army of Two action there.

Far as I remember it's "put in your email. now choose a password. hurray you got a uplay account now!"

 

[Get_craycray]

Dayum, a lot of people in here are going for the paramedic class (me included)

I don't think there's classes in the game. I think it's all cosmetic.

 

[BigTnaples]

Any word on what time the closed PC beta goes live?


I know it's already been preloaded.


Just dying to know how the PC version looks, and if it still has Snow Drops global illumination solution.

Yeah, I meant "gear" instead of class.

Can you mix abilities between medic, security etc?

Or you pick and specialise in one tree as you play?

Not the open beta. The closed one that starts today. Just not sure what time it goes live.

 

[Get_craycray]

Yes, you can. I remember an interview with a developer saying that you're not tied with one tree branch and that's why you could do the game solo if you want to (because you don't have to specialize in one branch only).

Not the open beta. The closed one that starts today. Just not sure what time it goes live.

The closed beta starts next week, the 29 on PC.

For Xbox? Do I get a code? I was in the alpha.

 

[Tecnniqe]

Wait, are those 4 outfits EU pre-order outfits made available for free to Americas and no one else?

 

[ResidentDante]

No, it's usually super easy!

This!

 

[Jest Chillin]

You can literally swap them out on the fly. As long as the abilities are unlocked.
