Looking very nice. I have my worries though first off I hate ubisoft with a passion. They have done my over on to many games over the past couple years.

My other worry is the AA I understand is nvidia so amd will have msaa but what about this shadow tech amd also use that?

Guess I be trying this for free, I'll never spend money on a ubi game day one ever again.
 
No way is Watchdogs gonna looked that good.......right?

I mean, the fiasco over the ps4 version not looking as good as e3 footage and all.

Damn. At least the Nvidia tech is actually quite useful. Wish they had used physx for extra particle effects though.

No PhysX (which I agree is a shame) but I am guessing this will be fairly demanding, so maybe a good thing (As I love eye candy) :)
 
Done some Tweeting find out what the main difference will be. TXAA I understand is Nvidia only AA tech. So I questioned a Dev and found out AO on the PC version will be different for Nvidia and AMD. How much different remains to be seen.

Q: Hello is they any difference between AMD and Nvidia PC version of the game visually?
A: Hello. The game will have better antialiasing and better ambient occlusion on NVIDIA cards. Besides that, the rest is the same.

Q: I understand the TXAA is Nvidia's own tech but will the Ambient Occlusion be disabled for AMD or will we just have worst perf?
A: AMD & console versions will have a different AO but still a very good one, don't worry. Our AO guru made sure of it ;)

And a Cheeky Question
Thanks :D any chance we could have screenshot from each pc version or I asking to much.
Thanks for replying.
 
TXAA is yummy.

Hopefully this game will run like crap for people with quad core / AMD / single GPU users so we can listen to them pretend they don't need to upgrade :D

I dont care for AA I dont notice a difference between them all tbh FXAA/SMAA all looks same to me as 4xMSAA I just dont see it.
