I hate the fact that Steam says that WD will be unlocked at like.. 7pm on Tuesday here. :L (Central Europe)

And that while some ppl already play on Uplay (like shown a few pages ago).. sigh. Why did I pre-order on Steam lol
 
Went PS4 despite having a beefy PC because I don't trust Ubis PC optimization and well, fuck Uplay. Glad to see the PS4 version performs well and looks good.

I don't think I've ever seen a uplay early release. Anyone else?

There was someone a few pages back who posted a picture of uPlay downloading the game. Not sure how they got keys five days early.

On topic of the map, I don't think comparing it to GTA V's map is really fair when that included a quite large desert area that honestly had nothing of note besides Trevor's place. Going there on MP was a ghost town and SP only made you go back towards the end of the storyline.

A few pages ago someone posted screens from the french Uplay download, and PC options menu - so I guess the PC Version is also already out in the wild. At least for some ppl. The person that "leaked" that might've been a journalist tho - I doubt it's released for everyone already.

Far Cry 3 ran like shit on my rig for the first few weeks, AC4 wouldn't go past 30fps and had technical problems for the first like 2 weeks so yeah.. I think i am going PS4.

Funny thing is i am one of like 3 people on this forum that doesn't mind uplay, i will buy a game off the actual client it's just their games always run like shit for me until they put 2 or 3 patches in it. I don't have a beefy PC, i am running a i7-3770, 660 and 8gb of ram but i should be able to run FC3/AC4 on medium/high settings at 60fps.

Count me as number 4. I don't like it, but I certainly don't mind it. It's never been something that's made playing games a chore, and if anything is just another 4 second loading screen.

This game gives me the same vibes the original Assassin's Creed gave me, only that this game is cross gen unlike AC back in the day =/

I also think it could turn up in the next big thing for Ubi to exploit, tho.

Haha, pretty much. If they still have the non-lethal wounding to cops when you shoot them in the leg I'll be kneecapping the innocent like a champ.

Oh you can shoot them in the kneecap all right, and the guy even has an animation for being hurt. Just don't be surprised when the game counts it as a kill :/

That thread is getting really interesting. No PS4 melting and it is maybe an upgrade.

Maybe there's something in the skill tree for it? They had the markers above the ankles on those cops he shoots in one of the early trade show trailers. Hope it's still in the game.
 
Do we know for good if we'll be able to pre-load Watch Dogs digitally on PS4 before it releases??

We've had the feature for what seems a good two weeks now and I havn't heard a single thing about it yet.
