Watch_Dogs |OT| PS4 would probably melt trying to do this

I like to think that the bank accounts have a transfer limit. I'm only allowed to withdraw 1K from my account at an ATM each day, for example, despite having much more than that.
That said, it's a little strange that you pull cash from the ATMs (even though you can withdraw tens of thousands at a time) and Aiden never pays for anything in cash. In fact,
there's a mission where you go to a bar in Pawnee and the guy asks you to pay cash, and Aiden says he's not a cash kind of guy. I had withdrawn 2K from an ATM five minutes before that. lol
Finally completed an online hack for the first time. What a thrill.
For the first time the location lent itself perfectly. They target was stood, presumably idle, in a coffee shop. I poked my head in the back door to profile them before sneaking back outside, up a dumpster then on to a raised area, around a corner and taking cover behind a vent. From here I had access to a chain of cameras back around the front of the coffee shop, down the side alley and to the dumpster which I climbed up. The perfect set up.
I initiated the hack and saw the target scrambling around in the alleys trying to find me on the cameras. I popped some pipes to try and scare him a little. He did a few laps, and then suddenly, he made for the dumpster and began to climb it. I dropped out of the camera and leapt off my ledge, and followed the path of the cameras back around the front, and then down the side of, the coffee shop.
As I was climbing back to my original spot as the coast looked clear, I noticed the target standing on top a large metal structure that was on the raised platform where my hiding spot was. He was quite high up and I just caught the purple name tag and could only see the top of his head. In lieu of risking getting away, I stood close to the structure knowing that his camera wouldn't pan low enough to see me. By now the hack was 96% done. Just as it ticked over to 99%, he turned and jumped off the structure. Luckily he went the other side to me, and it hit 100% just in time. Task complete and lots of points for me as this guy had a pretty highly rated defence.

So far I think Watch Dogs is one of the best open sandbox games despite ubisoft and their glitches. Honestly with every other sandbox games I have never felt immersed so quickly.

Right now, I'm playing since 4 hours. I did one mission and I don't really know what the story is all about. I'm just running or driving around, stop occasionally, do stuff or invade other players.
I never spent so much time with jus doingt nothing in RDR or GTA
GTA5 is still pretty awesome - I don't know if one should compare both games
Seeing a fair amount of critisim towards the driving , what is it that some of you aren't liking?
I'm finding the driving to be really enjoyable the cars seem to have a nice weight to them different handling on each type of car. I'm having no trouble weaving in and out of traffic at high speed during some of the most movie like car chases ive experienced in a game.

Sometimes the lighting really floors me:

Watching the sky while having a little motion blur because of the moving camera makes the game nearly look like real life.

well jesus thats pretty damn grim, wasnt expecting that
that was the first of those side missions i did and i was all "fuck you game for making me sad." then i went around stealing money and cars. it was kind of funny though because there was some random black dude shooting hoops outside the house.
i'd wait since none of the preorder bonuses unlock
More and more people reporting issues with their save files and being stuck on the loading screen it seems. Hope we don't have to wait too long before they figure out what's causing it to happen.
I'm a bit reluctant to start a new game with the possibility of it happening again without me having to keep a constant backup of the save directory just incase. Don't wanna go to the bother of restarting and then later find myself with a second corrupt save (or whatever the hell is wrong with it).
Anyway.. hopefully won't be long before I can jump back in again. Good to see so many of you are enjoying it and not suffering from the same problem =)

I killed a criminal who was planning his son's first birthday party, and another who was diagnosed with terminal cancer.
No fucks given.

I don't know if it can be avoided other than not playing those modes, though.

Police chases are incredibly fun and motorcycles in this game are godly. Feels so satisfying going full speed and turning a corner.
Driving in a car feels like you're driving on ice and then there's the physics lol. It's so bad that I'm constantly laughing at the things I can do in a car and thus end up enjoying the game even more.

Haven't tried free roam out yet but also curious to learn what is available for co op activities.

Where are the save files located? I would like to back it up since I too couldn't load my save due to Uplay being down.
Thanks!

Thanks for providing this, means I can hold off going in to anyone else's game for now until that's fixed. Still fine for others to come in to mine though or are there bugs with that too?

I'm guessing it's actually this "weight" you described which is what some people don't like. I see a lot of complaints about driving being unresponsive and laggy and I suspect the impression of weight given to the cars is what people don't like.
I really like the driving model though and don't particularly find it to be anything out of the ordinary that would cause the volume of complaints being seen.
Really liking the game. Having to"force" myself to progress the story now and then in between rather lengthier bouts of doing everything else but.

Car driving is fine - its Bikes which everyone loves which I'm having issue with - the hand brake is way too safe and there's no satisfying skid noise.
Their implementation of making cars weighty is to delay the input for a few frames. This only makes sense if it's a boat or on an oil slick or ice mesa, or some situation where you have a lot less friction and can drift. As is, it feels completely inappropriate in the game.

I'm gonna be pretty bummed if I finish the game before the online works. I want to be invaded! Fuck!

I don't even know how to start it ;p
Good Lord. I tried a race with checkpoint like GTA. In the road with more trafic the engine has started to drop so much tearing to remember to me AC on ps3 O_O. It's happened more than a time, now I refuse to touch agains those missions. My poor little ps4, the hell you have done ubi! I hope it's a bug.
You think that's bad?
I saw a single father jacking off to porn with his baby in the other room.
And I saw a naked girl (titties in full glory, no censored shizzle) holding a gun to a nekkid dude, was some kind of fucked up game.
