They're not terrible, that's the point. Many last gen games were sub 720p with a framerate less than 30FPS, so it is an improvement.

Got out of work early to pick it up. So far, I'm LOVING the fuck out of it. Driving feels really good. Feels like the cars have weight to them. Shooting is such a perfection. I can see how most people think the action sequence is comparable to Splinter Cell now. Story got me hooked as well.
Was cruising around the area and found an abandoned train track tunnel. Went inside there and I found a neatly wrapped up victim along with a cryptic message from a serial killer. Little things like this really pull me in.
Great job Ubisoft Montreal

Playstation network speeds always seems to suck. Bought it on Steam and was downloading 8.2MB/s. Took only ~25 min.

One thing i dont get is why ign said the car chases are a weak point. i think there freaking awesome, what open world game has better car chases? i love throwing up barriers behind me and watching the cops slam into them.

Spoiler tags, what are they????
According to that image I would assume that it does have an online mode if that is in fact the main menu of the game.
I believe AC4 was similar with story, and then the MP being the "online" tab. Go there and all the customizing matchmaking is found.
Anyone able to confirm my previous post of being able to buddy up with a friend on PSN/Live to play the online MP team game types with ?

I downloaded ACBF on my launch night PS4 and for some reason, I remember it taking around 20 minutes. Nothing like having those servers all to myself and 999,999 others.

I have some questions:
1. Does the PC version play well on a KB/M? Or should I use the DS4?
2. Or should I just get the PS4 version?
3. How much "freedom" do you have compared to GTA5?
4. Can you commit crimes at-will? Are their "GTA SUPER-COPS" that magically track you down on land-sea-air?
5. Can you own property/get a job/mod vehicles/etc....?
I'm thinking of getting this game, but I want more freedom/options/opportunities than Infamous:SS. I have a decent PC and a PS4, so the platform is also a question.
Thanks.

I'm confused... that game is not watchdogs
I am almost tearing up here. This is why I play games. I don't think I have ever seen any game look better.

There's no separate .exe that launches for multiplayer. Everything is integrated into the single player. Say you wanna go into a capture match or race...you simply queue up for it while in your single player, when they find a match the gametype loads and you are in instantly.
You load up with friends or you just play solo?

1. i tried out kb/m and wasnt a fan (i suppose its alright) i use a 360 controller
2. PC Specs?
3. About the same, go where you want, when you want.
4. You can commit crimes and the cops will be called. can stop the caller. the cops dont immediately show up.
5. not that ive come across for any of that

For that filmic experience at 24FPS?
I love everything about this game except 3 things:
- car handling model is very bad
- looks washed out (PS4 version, played on a calibrated monitor)
- screen can feel a bit cluttered when in scan mode
Shooting is great, story seems interesting, there is almost too many things to do. Graphics are decent but far cry from what we were shown in 2012.
Overall, it's a very good game. Won't win any GOTY awards, but very fun to play.

there really are some stunning moments. like at night when its raining is just amazing, between the light reflection off the ground and the distant fog. when its day time and clear skys the game doesnt really wow me, everything beautiful happens between dusk and dawn.

Jesus.
It'd be great if you can find things like that in the world and then follow up on them. Like, you find the victim and then essentially become a detective using ctOS to hunt down a creepy serial killer. Would make a great DLC. Constantly rainy Chicago, a lone vigilante prowling the streets, hunting down a deranged murderer who is always one step ahead.

So, the PS4 version compared to the original reveal is pretty good, yeah?
Rrrawr.
Can't wait to go spend my target bucks and get in on the insanity.
Question: can I go through the game without killing anyone?

You do follow up on it

I love how the game doesn't punish you for changing your playstyle.
I had a mission to infiltrate a building, but I got caught halfway through and it turned in a massive shootout. In games like AC, getting detected or getting kills would result in negative feedback from the game but everything is a-okay in WD when you shoot up the place.
WD also is the first open world game where I prefer walking over driving. So cool.

I think free roam is the only MP mode you can play with your friends. I may be wrong though.
I think getting caught and evading the target is the best part of the hacking online mode people.

I think I just did, actually. A guy invaded my world. We had an epic car chase, went to on foot, then I got back in a vehicle and ran his ass over. Take that 2xtap.
Doubt I'll be driving much in this game. Feels like bumper cars.

Tracking down a criminal - I'm too hasty and the guy gets spooked before he made his move on the victim, I decide to chase him down anyway.
He takes me down an alley and on to the open street, I'm closing in when suddenly he gets out his phone, "Any of you in the area, get down here NOW!" he yells - suddenly 4 enemy cars are speeding towards us and the tables have turned.
I duck down an alley and make a run for it, by the lead car is going to run me down - I turn and shoot a hail of bullets at the car, none of them land but they are forced to stop. My first gunfight of the game begins here (and I've been playing all day) as I try and hold off the greater numbers from swarming me.
Eventually they get savvy and start throwing grenades, I make another run for it on the city streets, I make it to the train and hack it for an escape.
All of that came out of me failing a run of the mill criminal takedown.
