Have you done the fake multiplayer mission to unlock multiplayer yet? After that, either in the maps or on the phone.

Seriously.
yeah, along the way they took out that feature :/
Here's to the long shot that they put that back in, on some patch down the road. But probably WD2.
Or never.
Also disappointed in the hacking billboards. No texts, only premade phrases.

I'm really enjoying it, but anyone else having problems driving? Cars are impossible to control.

Go to Free Roam. Invite your friend. Make sure you are both set to "Adversarial" On.
First person driving is awesome in theory but no rain on the window destroys the immersion IMHO. That's why I rather drive in 3rd person view.

Guys can I lock Vsync to 60 FPS? It seems it only does it for 30 or 20 FPS

I don't want that. I want to hack into my friends game without him knowing about it.
So i can't hack into a friends game? That sucks.

Someone hacked my game which ended up in a 20 minute car chase followed by a shootout in the streets that turned into a cop chase. I was just trying to get to a mission start haha.

Can you do the same thing again please except hold a PS Vita instead of a Watch Dogs poster?

Yeah, I don't see how that would possible. As soon as someone enters your game it tells you exactly who it is. That would be cool, though... another lost feature...
Vsync 1 should do it, but ensure that you're actually going over 60 for the most part before activating or it will just lock it somewhere else.

Does he work for Ubi or something? You didn't just go out with a WD poster and take pics with random civilians right?....righhttt??

Hacking people is so amusing. I hacked a guy while sitting in traffic, not moving. Seeing him run around looking for me while I did absolutely nothing sneaky was hilarious.

Same reaction I've got so far, found a good price for it and had to give it a go =/
It's ok, and that's all I can say so far. It's average.
I'll give it a few more tries later then and keep my fingers crossed. Maybe it's down to their servers being overloaded/down?, since I know the save sync has failed a few times due to that. Other than installing the new AMD beta drivers (which I've now reverted to what I was using before), nothing else has changed.
Really hope it's not due to a corrupt save or something :/I am stuck on that exact same part when I try to load up my save but I'm on Xbox One.
I think we have to delete our saves and start over
Will try it again in a bit and hope for the best anyway. Gonna be really annoyed if I have to start a new game and lose 4 days worth of progress. Ugh.

After a few hours of Washing the Doge, I think my main and considerable gripe is with the inelegance of the cover system. Here's why:
There's no 'round the corner and continue forward' manoeuvre.
This has been a staple action in basically every game with a cover mechanic since Gears of War. It's awkward and unnecessary to have to manually exit cover and round the corner. It hinders forward propulsion, which is something that the game seems to thrive on, in my opinion.
It's needlessly difficult to both make the game relinquish automated control and know when it has done so.
This is just shoddy design in my eyes. Basically, if anyone is familiar and experienced with Ghost Recon: Future Soldier's cover system, then you'll know that Ubi should have just ripped the mechanics directly from here. To those who aren't familiar, it follows the same point-and-click method, but instead of a one-time press, you hold X/A until the manoeuvre is complete; if you depress before then, control is given back to the player instantly and seamlessly. It's superb, simple and nuanced.
There have been countless times in WD that I've wanted to snake my way through areas by lining up my trajectory with the next point of cover and cancelling out somewhere along the way. Instead, the game fails to cancel and I'm stuck watching Aiden complete his journey to a wall that I didn't want him anywhere near. Any form of cancelling just seems inconsistent to me.
Aside from all of that, I'm enjoying myself, but I'm finding myself taken out of that enjoyment a bit too often. And yeah, it is decidedly cross-gen looking on PS4.

It's all in game items. Once the pass is redeemed, nothing is downloaded, just unlocked.
If you don't see the items in game once you get to your hideout, contact Ubi/wherever you bought it from.
Well you do have to download the Conspiracy pack. It's the first piece of season pass content and available now.

I dont even..
Man the collision sounds are so fuckin awful !!
Also what is the point of having a kind of heavy car handling when the collision engine (with other vehicles) is so lenient ? I swear if you were to freeze a frame when scratching paint with a car at high speed you'll probably see the car clipping inside the other car.

Thank you. Ubisoft paid me very well.
Actually, this was last week. Gamestop wouldn't give me a Wolfenstein blimp. Instead, they gave me this torn up Watch Dogs poster. We were seeing how many complete strangers would take a picture with us before we left the mall. My friend won our bet with a total of 15.
I have a TMNT/Yosp mixed profile picture. I do weird stuff for my own amusement.

Why couldn't Ubi have just ripped the driving straight out of Driver San Francisco? That's the pinnacle of open world driving imo.

How do you access the 4v4 one? I've only seen and played the FFA version.
