[Pandemic]

How do people have this game already? Come on uplay, give me my key!

 

[Zabant]

That's probably the intention, to make you feel bad about your possibly violent actions. The little personal information chunks on each NPC are an ingenious little addition to the game to be sure. Most people probably won't give a shit and just shoot everyone anyway, haha.

True, however upon retrying the mission because I killed the guy this time he had different info, I think it was "trolls religious forums" or something aha.

Thanks for this

Game looks A LOT better when not viewing shitty compression via YouTube, Twitch, etc.,

 

[Linius]

Dennis, could you do a webm with a motor cycle in cockpit view?

 

[Rolfgang]

Someone in The Netherlands already has it in his or her hands?

 

[Rygar 8 Bit]

anyone know if they are going to preload on steam?

 

[Zabant]

I try to shoot the nicer ones in the knee caps, and that makes me feel a little better about myself.

I do that to the ambient criminals as it slows them when they're running so you can QTE tackle them.

 

[Drewfonse]

The impressions in this game are following the Wolfenstein curve. Mixed early impressions, including a few pretty vocal negative voices, followed by increasingly positive vibes as more people got the game.

Wolfenstein is awesome, therefore Watch Dogs will be awesome.


That is all.

 

[Skinny Pete]

That PS4 mp4 looks very good. Looking forward to this in Tuesday.

 

[Zabant]

Also semi-related, embargos are so stupid when there's widespread street date breaks and people like myself are talking about the game and the pros can't

Yep. I also find it funny whenever someone wants impressions, the first person to respond is always a negative Nancy.

If Watch Dogs turns out to be as special and lovingly crafted in gameplay and storytelling, I might have to check it out. The shooting itself has looked pretty bland so far, though and it's the minigames that have looked fun like the psychedelic and cyberpunk stealth ones compared to the main game from footage shown.

What up MW, you still visit Union VGF? I've pretty much given up on that place.

Nevermind. Right above me.

 

[Denton]

Bikes do not have cockpit view, only cars.

 

[Ser Goje]

This is from the first mission, captured on PS4.

 

[Always-honest]

In real life, there is a thing called shadows. Cities are full of them. Not in Watch Dogs .

Nonsense. Plenty of shadow.
Maybe watch vids

In regards to the shooting, I really like it. Feels more Tom Clancy than GTA if you know what I mean.

For every positive Pete, there will be a negative Nancy. Thus is the law!

 

[Sajjaja]

Nas - One Mic
Mike Golden & Friends - No Number
Kid Cudi - Day 'n' Nite
2 Chainz - Feds Watching (Feat. Pharrell)

A few of the songs I like.

Do they have any metal songs?

 

[M.W.]

What up MW, you still visit Union VGF? I've pretty much given up on that place.

Occasionally. It's too trolly now.

 

[Anion]

Dang, I wish I had this game so I could play it during memorial weekend!

 

[Jimmyfenix]

I hope this game does not have the AC 4 100 friend limit uplay bug.

 

[King_Moc]

True, but why would their opinion be any more valid? At least we know Ubisoft didn't gift you an iPad.

 

[Rolfgang]

I saw in a screen there was a Rock and a Punk playlist. Here's hoping there is some lost metal on there somewhere. GTA IV's Liberty Rock was glorious!

 

[Linius]

Bikes do not have cockpit view, only cars.

What I meant is driving a bike without seeing the bike. Like in that car webm. But luckily Dennis understood and it looks great.

What you see in the beginning

http://a.pomf.se/stwpnl.webm

Awesome. I think all my driving in the game will be like that, looks great.

That is all.

I got both Wolfenstein and Watch Dogs right now. I stop playing Watch Dogs so I cab finish Wolfenstein. That's how much I like it. Best single player FPS I played in recent memory.

The plot is awesome, haven't been this involved since the Modern Warfare series.

 

[iMax]

What downgrade?

 

[Chance Hale]

What you see in the beginning

http://a.pomf.se/stwpnl.webm

Can you get thrown out of a car the same way GTA style?

 

[Rolfgang]

True, but why would their opinion be any more valid? At least we know Ubisoft didn't gift you an iPad.

But did he get a Nexus 7? That's the question!

 

[JaseC]

anyone know if they are going to preload on steam?

That's the million-dollar question. Ubi has offered pre-loads for its "AAA" games in the past but the clock is ticking. There's no point asking Ubi, either, as ever since the Black Flag region-lock snafu last year apparently whenever there's a question or issue regarding Steam the official line is "Ask Steam", which is patently stupid when it comes to matters regarding say, oh, the availability of the game in the UK.

My advice to others who have pre-ordered on Steam is to just download the cracked version of the game so if there's to be no pre-load, or if a pre-load period would already be too little, too llate, then you're not wasting hours on release day downloading data. Instead you can: Create a Watch_Dogs folder in steamapps\common -> Move the data from the cracked installation into the folder -> Install again -> Wait as Steam "discovers existing files". You'll likely have to re-download some data due to the nature of how cracking works, but the bulk of it should pass Steam's validation check.

Okay yeah that MP4 looks pretty fucking good.

 

[The perfect Dark]

I love the cockpit view in this game!

 

[x-Lundz-x]

This is from the first mission, captured on PS4.

Looks incredible, anyone saying this game doesn't look good is obviously just trolling to troll.

 

[Zabant]

Fair point, though I'm sure many more people trust the word of say someone like Jeff Gerstmann over a Joe Shmo like me.

Day time can look a bit off in places, but some people certainly do like exaggerating.

 

[GavinUK86]

I know exactly what you mean. It feels a bit like Ghost Recon Future Soldier. Good but not very responsive. A bit on the floaty side.

 

[Faith]

Nobody is actually saying that. It just doesn't look like the 2012 trailer.

Anyone see the Best Buy Sunday ad? "Groundbreaking games. Great Prices". I read it as, "Delayed Games. Regular Prices." lol

The marketing is pretty big, but to the general public this could be interpreted as a system seller. I'll probably wait for a sale.

 

[Drewfonse]

This is from the first mission, captured on PS4.

Bonkers beautiful.

 

[Rflagg]

You guys have forced my hand and now I need to go to wal-mart Monday at midnight.

 

[x-Lundz-x]

Real game looks lightly less as good as CG scripted trailer. Shocking.

 

[Northeastmonk]

What changed your mind?

 

[Burger]

Any peeps with the PS4 version, do your codes (the redeemable ones packed in with the game) work? Mine say they are invalid...

 

[Faith]

See, there you're wrong.

The differences are huge. Completely missing DoF (it was the best I've ever seen in a game), worse textures, less polygons and a lighting that has nothing to do with what we've seen 2012.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

Seems like a lot of people are saying this too.

Same.

 

[MayMay]

They usually don't work pre-release
