if this is like any other ubisoft game, season pass is probably a scam. only dlc stuff of any worthwhile is the story dlc, which tends to be cheaper than the season pass.

Honestly though I went through the E3 2013 uncompressed footage and the only noticeable difference between it and the leaked footage is the headlights on cars blinding you, and the helicopter spotlights. Still not seeing the massive downgrade.
Hopefully the music leaks completely soon. I want a Queen song to make it in.

Looks like it's public. I added myself. Will play on pc.
For me it was that I'd like it to be true. I'm aware of just about everything you've mentioned thus far, but was willing to believe because the driving model in these games can be a make or break for me. Games like Sleeping Dogs don't have a chance with me simply because I don't enjoy the way the vehicles handle. So, it's late, I'm excited for this game and I saw something that gave me confidence in an important aspect of it. Rookie mistake. Anyway, off to bed for me. Can't wait to see what this OT has become by the time I wake up.

Any facial comparisons of downgrade? I swear anytime I see his face it looksike the most downgraded thing.
If the vehicles handle similar to gta iv then it will be the best thing about the game by A MILE.
From the videos, it looks far from it sadly. Cars look stiff, floaty and the controls look a little twitchy. A cross between gta v and saints row.

They could have changed the actor for the performance capture.
Its not like gta iv, its really hard to flip a car in this, its pretty easy to drive around but you can sort just plow through traffic. Driving a truck through hatch backs is good fun.

It's cool man
As someone who's worked on a racing game in the past, it's not nearly as straightforward as you'd hope to imagine with these sorts of things! I hope too that the cars handle nicely in WD, not long till we get our hands on it.
There's private games

Ah okay. that's what some previews said. And it looks kinda that way on videos.
Could be sucky drivers though ;P
I didn't really like it in the beginning, but it grew on me. Its a lot more arcadey than gta iv. Worst thing about driving for me was in cock pit view you cant look 90 degrees left or right.
A real (aka professional) magazine broke the review date?

it says world exclusivity
Everything works perfectly, allowing Hacking phases pleasurable game. At the design level, the game is very strong technically. The surround sound effects and music are excellent. Scenario is against pretty bad. Faultless, except history.
I don't care that much about the downgrade, since i'm not interested in this game anymore after seeing the gameplay leaks. What i will say though is that it's BS that Ubisoft can get away with the difference in quality from how the game was revealed and marketed up until it's release and all the embargos.

arcady is good imo.
So you mean you do care?
He means the story not the history.

Yep, this is exactly what's happening. I love Neogaf in general, but the thing I hate is the undercurrent of negativity. It's a good thing to be a critical consumer, but lots of people get more entertainment from irrational hate. Look at the recent thread about a Crytek manager making an innocuous statement about RAM limitations. Just look at discussions about David Cage's games. Or Ninja Theory's DMC game.

Or indeed the history of the game.Since E3 2012 till now ,the downgrades and stuff..
final version i guess, they have 10 pages of test... may be i can find scan of it
I guess you could say, i cared about this game before the recently leaked gameplay videos showing nothing but a bland GTAV copy with much less "life" on the streets and less things to do and an apparent downgrade in visual fidelity(lightning and particle effects referring to the leaked gameplay videos of the gas station explosions for example).
As i said before, that's all gone since i'm not buying the game anymore.
It is disrespectful to gamers though, to show a game with lots of visual potential and a certain iconic look, which is then dumbed down for apparent reasons(consoles not as powerful as the top end PC they were using during the reveal demo). To think that gamers would just blindly ignore that is kind of disrespectful.
...also, when a game gets pushed back from release, the last thing you should do is give it a downgrade as most people expected the game to get better and look better with the extra development time they got.

AC IV got 18/20 last year. Nice score but we need more opinions
But was also a world exclusive?
the score was reported from people who bought it
Inside the magazine.

Got it, thanks.
Agreed, and it's not just for Watch Dogs. Criticism and skepticism absolutely have their place here - all positive, all the time wouldn't do anyone any good, either - but the overall tone of negativity here has become overwhelming. I've given up on threads about games I'm really interested in as a result.

i found a scan of the score. With the plus and minus parts. It's 19/20.
Can't find what version it was yet though.

Prime is usually a bad idea in this scenario. You 9/10 get it release day because they'll ship on Saturday and courier will deliver Tuesday.
If it wasn't Prime and they used Royal Mail they'll ship Friday as Royal Mail is a 2-day service, but you normally get it next day anyway!
Fingers crossed for you though.

I have one 570 and still preordered the PC version. Just for the option to play around with resolution/framerate. With two of those, get the PC.
It helps that I got the preorder for ditr cheap
Easy PC. Cheaper and should outperform PS4 on that setup.
Shame you missed out on the ridiculous region-switching deals.
