"Collateral" as in the movie with Tom Cruise?
If so, what, mission category does it fall under?

Just finished today..yeah the story was pretty bad. It gets a pass from me though, the game itself was pretty fun. You can stealth through a lot of it or go gungho it's up to you.
And sometimes the game looks freaking amazing, other times it looks flat..kind of strange how that is.

Yesterday I invaded someone and perved on them from the bushes. No one got hurt.

... and then someone did the exact same thing to me straight after I had finished invading... bastards!

Hi gaffers,
I'm kind of torn on which version to get, so need a little help deciding.
I've checked over the gamersyde videos for the ps4 and pc version, from what I can tell the ps4 version holds up really well?
My ps4 is hooked up to a 55' Sony W900 and its marvellous to play on.
My PC specs:
i5 3570K (non overclocked)
8GB ram
Samsung SSD
Gigabyte Windforce GeForce GTX 670 2GB
Samsung S23A700 1080p 120Hz screen ( Comming from the Sony W900 the PQ on the TN really sucks)
I'm kind of scared with my processor, not sure if its up to the task.
Is there any hope on addons/mods for the pc version, if so that might push me to get that version.

Agree that these mini games are si fleshed out is a testament to the game devs... Really enjoying this thing... Sure there are flaws, every game has nitpicks but man...they really delivered
With 2gb's of vram u'd struggle to run ultra settings on pc, i'd go for ps4 personally. But I'm biased

Your PC is way beefier than a ps4. But if you want play on the big TV that's cool too.

Eh, I'm running everything but textures on Ultra and it's been OK. The stuttering can bog down the experience, but it's so infrequent that I don't even care.
8GB RAM, non OC i5 4670K, non OC ASUS DCUIIOC GTX 770 is my set up.

I've defended a lot of invasions successfully. There is a leaderboard in the game but that doesn't work for me.
With that said, I hate the glitches in the game where objectives complete or don't complete when needed. In a mission where it tells me to regroup but it does nothing. Restarting checkpoint didn't help either. I might start the mission entirely...

I got the plat yesterday and all I an say is the story is ok, theres so few charcters that its kinda makes it too easy to guess plot points before they happen, even if there were more it still just an ok story, tbh overall not sure how i feel about this game, it has some of the funniest stuff i've seen in a while but also repeats the mini games and side stuff way too often and becomes a chore.
That sounds like a right pain; thankfully I've not come across any such glitches yet, but then I'm not really doing any story missions atm. It's also good to hear that someone is able to defend consistently - based on comments I've read, the few streams I've watched, and the few times I've invaded or been invaded, it honestly seems like there's a significant bias in the invaders favour.

You're right. There is a bias and it gets very frustrating. However, from what I've seen is that a lot of expected features are hidden under "notoriety". The best being able to get a picture of what your invader looks like, which is like 10,000+ points or so! That and all good players know where to look and what to look for. I think people are still figuring out whats possible and what isn't and I've found out a lot of small things that can give away if you're being invaded and when you're being invaded.
Nope.
I love environment in this game. Every location is unique with its own identity.
I'll take your word for it.
I am still in the initial section of the city.

lol wth. Are you taking pics of every step you take or something? =P
My system:
i52500k@4.2ghz
Zotac Amp Ed 670 very slightly overclocked (+50 or so)
8 gigs Corsair Vengeance
SSDs
Etc...
The game will run on a mix of high-ultra at 40-60fps. This is with full HBAO and mid range AA. 1080.
The majority of the time it ill be in 50-60 and the drops aren't really noticeable. You could easily lock the game at 30 and get the same fps as the ps4 but at 1080p with better visuals.
A mix of medium-ultra will net you solid 60fps @1080. I can find this a multitude of ways by making trade offs here and there.
In short: your PC can handle it better than your PS4 can.
Oh, and you should look into ways of hooking up your PC to your TV remotely.
They can't abuse them because they are not aware that somebody is in their game. Problem is that many players just want to take car and go around. Just keep your distance until they leav car.
Dennis may be the most easy target for a tailing.Jesus, you had the game for ages now
Anyone has an answer?

Usually after hacking a few times you'll get someone.
A simple pause - as noted in this post before - tells you : If things keep moving you're not alone. If everything stops you're alone.
After watching some twitch feeds I learned to just grab a dirtbike and take to the railway.
Yea, id love to see some things patched for hacking/tailing missions.

Question for PS4 players
I absolutely cannot find the final icons for the Burner Phones nor Murder Investigations on my map. They just aren't there.
Worst still, the final AR code never showed up on my map (I had to get the girlfriend to go through a YouTube walkthrough where we one-by-one went through them until I saw one that I hadn't played in game... we went to the area, I found the code in-game, it scanned successfully, yet it never once showed up on my map).
Is this a known glitch, or do I not get to see them all until I progress further in the story? I'm in ACT 2 by the way.
Thanks. Frustrating!

On the PC, some icons for me didn't show up until Act IV.
I think you have to progress further in the story.

Progression in side quests unlocks over time. Keep going through the main story first.
I hope open world games will have more dynamic and elaborate weather systems this gen. I'm not talking about the occasional shower but variable levels of rain ranging from sun showers to full on thunderstorms. The element of wind seems to be highly underused as well. Maybe with better physics we'll see more aggressive implementations of it.

Correct, I finally got the answer to that question yesterday.
Apparently there is one final CTos tower that you will hack in act 3.
This will reveal the missing icons.

There are some real nice visuals in the game. There's a bridge that leads towards the City which has the Skyline in the distance. It's amazing watching it gradual get closer until you're in the city.
