No, there are some moments where they already know where you are. Then the objective is usually to either kill them or run away from them.

Holy Shit.
They're trying really hard with these.
set textures to medium, your vram is full
That's simply not true.
If the lack of AO holds for the whole game, the whole picture and environments look flat and lifeless.
Just look at those wooden planks. Instead of sitting on the environment, they look like flat textures in the Xbox version.

Based on a lot of footage I've watched, you can play significant chunks of it stealth. There may be some situations where they force you into a more chaotic situation, but big parts of this game can absolutely be played stealth. And stealth doesn't just mean while on foot, as you can quite easily play stealth while inside of a vehicle also.
Honestly, if I didn't see a video of it, I wouldn't even notice it. And I personally miss it more in cutscenes. Don't seem much bothered by what I've seen during gameplay, and there's plenty of footage to go around. Game looks good no matter the system.

When the versions are even I prefer to get the Xbox version. For instance I'm hoping the UFC game is the same on both so I can get that on Xbox and Watchdogs on PS4.

..You mean the random generator is?
The last time I heard it explained the NPC's are generated by taking subtexts from lists of terms so this isn't a person trying. Unless they removed that system.

Some people can't see difference between 30 fps & 60 fps. Not mean doesn't counts.Hmmm...I need some new glasses then
Just buy the PS4 version of everything going forward it's the more powerful machine by a substantial amount.
That's not going to change.

My hype for this game is reaching fever pitch now :-(
I'm probably gonna get it for ps4 due to the higher resolution but I kind of feel like getting it for XBone so I can have a nice meaty game to play through on there since I usually buy all multiplats on ps4.
Wish someone had broken the street date in the UK, Tuesday seems ages away :-(

Is the profiler info always random or is it a set NPC already in the world?
Is the post office running on Monday?

Well, we knew about the difference in resolution between the two versions for about two weeks.
Unless you really, really, like the rumble triggers on the Xbox One then I can't see how these new comparisons will add on and/or help you decide what version to get in terms of visuals. The info was already there that the game would look better on the PS4.
I understand making a choice via these details for UFC though since the game is running in the same resolution and framerate on both consoles.
Nah, there are some enforced shootybang parts.

It was supposed to be random. But they could have changed that. I swear that between the 3 versions I saw different names and stats for the people in the nearby parking lot but at times there are just little differences. Could be either way.
PS4 version looks low res as well. Just not quite as low res as the Xbox's. Its hardly a huge victory. The AO difference is more impactful, but overall the two versions look comparable there.

This has been my favorite one I've run across so far. I was mildly disappointed that I couldn't use my super phone to find said image "online".

Isn't there nudity in this game?
What you want to know? Most people here have delved into it saying its a fun, vibrant open-world.
Edit: Haha these pedestrians are crazy.

Whats the real chance of getting a 1080p patch day1?PS4.Any rumors on that topic?
I personally don't care that much because i have game pre-ordered and i am waiting 27th. But opinions on mission designs, characters, story, gameplay are in my opinion worth more than constant blabbering about graphic

I've only got a few hours of playing thus far but I can understand, at least early on, why that French magazine posted here several pages back listed the story as "meh".
So far the bulk of Aiden's story that I have seen has been told in flashbacks and they haven't been very ... relateable, for lack of a better term. Even in the present day campaign missions I just can't bring myself to care about him one way or the other, even during one of the first missions with his sister and nephew. I know I should feel bad for him but I just don't. He just feels like a milquetoast protagonist. I hope this picks up as time goes by but right now I'm happy in the knowledge that there's a lot to do.... the question will be: when I finish the game will the side quests or the campaign be what I look back on most? Right now the campaign feels lacking but, again, I must emphasize I only have a few hours played.
None.

Forget her nude online photos, my question is: Where are the $47K bus driver jobs, IRL?!
Look at how decent PC's are running it. Its a resource hog. PS4 isn't powerful enough.

How was AC4 running before and after the patch?
I think he's answering the second question, not the first. To add my two cents, Black Flag was rushed out to meet the launch date so it shouldn't be too surprising that Ubi was able to polish things up a bit with a patch; Watch Dogs, however, was delayed by half a year and so I'd say what you've seen is what you'll be getting.
Huh?

Just wanted to know if it had frame rate issues before they patched it up to 1080p.
PS4 version of Black Flag got a patch to increase the resolution.

And aa
Ok?
And I'm pointing out that this wont happen with Watch Dogs. Not Day 1. Not Day 90.
The hell you are talking about. It's not low res in any kind of point of view.

Man the income for some of these jobs doesn't seem right. I wish I could make $68k+ just scheduling things for people. lol.

Pretty sure he's talking about the shadows. The shadows are pixelated. Neither are perfect. The X1 version shadows are just more pixely.
EDIT: Okay now I'm getting confused. lol
It's not a resource hog. It's a disaster code. There is nothing can't handle at 1080p ps4 on Watch Dog. Most of the tech grapchi used come to the past generation. You have to give a watch to the beyond3d forum, there are a lot of discussion about it.
Yep. There's been no chatter of an upres patch and they're not rushed like AC4.
Of course there's "chance", albeit a very very small one.

Possibly hundreds. They're pretty much everywhere.
I think it still has AO but of lower quality.
Why you don't post some prove about this statement indeed to talk? In the picture I seen it's not a low res shadow. I don't know, maybe in other parts of game, I guess.
