Even the mini map got downgraded. What footage is this from exactly?
My god..... this looks like a PS3/PS4 comparison :O
Watch_Dogs downgradeaton confirmed
- Thread starter jett
- Start date

Okay, I'll be fair to the game. I feel kinda responsible for starting this as I was the first to post a screenshot of the car. This is how the footage looks a few seconds earlier.
This section is pretty much on par with what they showed off last year (the car section). Just when they reach that bridge section and the spotlight where things take a turn for the worst.
Reposted for new page.
After watching the official playstation new trailer released today, a little faith is restored, still looks nothing like the reveal, definately PS 3.5 and not Fully next-gen imo, which is unfortunate. Look forward to the reviews now.

Come on, it's a joke. People don't seriously think it looks like a N64 game. It's a hyperbole used to make a point about the downgrade.

From the (shitty quality) video:
Seriously getting an N64 game vibe.
Why is L3 reload? I'm more confused about that then the graphics.
Seems quite a few people just wanted to post their funny gifs and hate on one of their least favorite publishers, but what is new around here? Ubi has had issues with marketing before and they'll have them again - no doubt the images / video will have come from the 360/PS3 and before release a new video will show up with some better captured material.
Playstation Denmark confirmed that the new announcement trailer is running on PS4, but NOT talking about the italian trailer. Thanks for clearing it up Lazlo

So where's all the in-game footage that I can watch in HD?
So what you're saying is neither you nor the poster have ever seen an N64 game.
Interesting.
Why not?
I find it useless to release this game unless it is really good. They are going for a franchise and with early last gen graphics this might do really bad. Delay the next Assassins Creed to next winter (it would for sure be better) and release Watch Dogs this holiday season.

The fact that you needed to actually explain that to the guy... my god. You're a trooper.
Playstation Denmark confirmed it
I believe the person who posted that tweet said it was in relation to some different footage. his comment is around page 20 or 23

Not on par at all. Its still missing all the atmospheric effects that gave the world the impression of distance and life. Now its lifeless. AC4 has better effects of that nature. Tomb raider does too.Okay, I'll be fair to the game. I feel kinda responsible for starting this as I was the first to post a screenshot of the car.

This section is pretty much on par with what they showed off last year (the car section). Just when they reach that bridge section and the spotlight where things take a turn for the worst.

Nah, I know that even my terrible screenshot looks miles better than an N64 game on a technical level. Just saying that the flat lighting, horribly bland textures, and overall blurriness (partially the video's fault) made me think of Winback, which some also posted in this thread.

...This is going to probably sound really dumb...but I would much rather hear a confirmation that this is PS4 footage from Ubisoft rather than a Playstation Denmark twitter page...

Holy shit, that story trailer.
I'm freaking excited for this.
Those screenshots, though. Sucks for all "current-gen" players. :/
EDIT: L3 is reload? What the fuck is this shit.

I'm not on board with all of the "AC4 looked better" bullshit. That was a slightly tarted up PS3 game if there ever was one.

I know you're not being literal but I have to post screenshots every time "it's an n64 game" hyperbole comes up.
The atmospheric effects are dynamic.

This looks fine. I think some of you are just focusing on the shit caps for the controversy. I'll reserve judgement until closer to release.
Im with you.

This▲. These animated .gif images are shite. I can't believe people are freaking out over them.

so its dead rising quality

Errr, the tradeshow version should have easily been possible on retail hardware for ps4. It didn't look that much better than the top ps3 games.

Where is this footage coming from?
It's not on any of the usual places I get gameplay.
cancelled because the graphics don't hold up? really?

I´m starting to think this is being doing on purpose so the final game looks like the lesser downgraded gif so the people forget how the first reveal actually looked like and be content with it.
Haha no problem - the problem is the last 10+ pages of people who saw that tweet and are now saying it's PS4 graphics (which is isn't).

I agree that AC4 isn't a next-gen showcase. Not even close (well, hopefully). But it does look damn good on PS4, especially @ 1080p.

Barely better than GTA V.
The car sections (both gifs, the bad one and the good one) can be seen in the vid on this page.
http://www.everyeye.it/ps4/articoli/watch-dogs_hands-on_21862
That's where I made the 2nd gif from.
Canceled because the game looks flat out bad in every aspect. Sure, I'm basing this off the media that's released but it just doesn't look fun at all.
Also, the game has become a huge PR nightmare for them and I doubt they'll be able to win back those who aren't convinced at this point.
You should upload the better footage over your old gif - suddenly new people to the thread will think everyone is freaking out over nothing.
I hope this is still the PC version. Most amazing graphics I've ever seen!Hard to believe that this was the original reveal.

GTA V on PS4 will probably smoke this game graphically.Okay, I'll be fair to the game. I feel kinda responsible for starting this as I was the first to post a screenshot of the car. This is how the footage looks a few seconds earlier.

It's been said earlier in the thread, the bridge "lighting up" is an indicator it is being hacked/interacted with. It doesn't just spaz out for fun.
Also, there are some major discrepancies in the footage from one scene to the next, I'm willing to believe its both gen versions in a compilation. The gif farisr posted above looks fine,
LEts get some official word from ubi please, this could affect sales if it spirals.

I wouldn't just put it down to setting, the textures, foliage, weather effects and draw distance are far superior to anything in the recent WD footage, it also runs at a locked and stable 30fps with no dips (something I'm concerned WD will struggle with). Character models are the only thing that look significantly better in WD
It may be on par come release, but right now it just doesn't look anywhere near as good as AC4 in my opinion.

L3 reload is going to piss me off to no end. How could you possibly be using all the face buttons and even R1/R2 already?
I didn't make the first gif. I only took a screenshot of that crappy looking section, bringing it into the spotlight. CassidyIzABeast created a gif of that section about an hour later (the one being used in the OP).

I think this too. I cannot believe that people are criticizing so quickly when Ubisoft hasn't even stated what version/gen the footage is.

Don't infer anything from what I'm saying that I'm not. I'm talking very specifically about environmental effects. AC4 has a really good distance hazing, small little bits of dust and pollen floating in the air, and trees swaying slightly in the breeze, for example.
Early Watch_Dogs footage was full of such effects. Leaves blowing around. Mist over the water. Dust being moved around. This new footage has lost all of that and it makes the world look empty, fake and lifeless.
