Watch Dogs - Ubisoft's Third Person Shooter

[LoopyOrc]

Great video to show what the immersion is like, and to think I've read people claiming the world looks empty and dead...

He doesn't have his phone out to see it but every civilian you see has a little unique info panel too, quite impressive IMO.

watch in 1080

Looks really nice. Noticed a few nice touches in there, the one car with the music up really loud was one. Weather looks great too

Should We Be Worried About the Watch Dogs Review Embargo?

Games journalism gets a bad rap and it’s easy to see why, I cannot think of any other form of entertainment where people would part with £50 without having read a single review to read before committing to the purchase and to rub salt in further into the wounds, the only people that are allowed to review the game are hand-picked by the publisher. When you take a step back from this process, it’s clear to see why gamers are a cynical bunch.

A little research online, revealed my concerns were justified, as it has been confirmed earlier this year that Conan O’Brien charges a considerable fee for Clueless Gamer reviews. When you put the whole story together, something just does not feel right.

Considering the subject matter of Watch Dogs it’s somewhat ironic that a concept of “Information warfare, data being interconnected, and the world’s increasing use of technology” has captured gamers imaginations with its anti-establishment themes, but the same techniques are being used to control the gamers buying the game.

Decided to switch supersampling on from the config file and this is pretty much the best this game is going to look...
Suprisingly I was getting 20-35 fps with smaa + supersampling. Taking it to 4x MSAA + supersampling I was getting about 15 fps and if I took it up to 8X MSAA + supersampling I was getting about 3fps
Here are a few uncompressed shots.

Seeing some footage and screenshots of this, can't say i'm impressed with the graphics they were raving about. GTA 5 looks just as good if not better and that's on the consoles.

Lots of people are going to be very disappointed with this , there is a reason they have a review embargo

I'm guessing you've played the majority of the game?

You won't see it till release, there is no preload for uplay.

What is wrong with your eyes?! Literally 2 posts above yours shows you how this game looks far better than any gta title!

You surely can't be serious here? Unbelievable. Some of the stuff getting sprouted in here. A few pages back there was a guy saying GTA 4 looked better than watch dogs. Either some posters have eye deficiencies or I'm seeing different screenshots and gameplay footage.

Anyone had their key from CJs yet? Its the first time Ive used them and it says when pre ordering you should get your keys aprox 2 days before, although ive still not received anything and their autokey's got no stock?

 

[MarkeR]

Same as me mate....

I guess tomorrow, since today is a bank holiday and I think the guy that runs it is based in the uk...

 

[Martini1991]

The AA in the game looks like crap, that doesn't look anything like supersampling.

 

[bemaniac]

be thankful it has any lol gta4 had no AA

 

[ICDP]

I believe the options are for MSAA, no SSAA options available.

Ok cheers, was just hoping I could get it pre-loaded. Guess I'll have to wait!

 

[VincentHanna]

Origin says it's available at 9:00 a.m tomorrow.

 

[ICDP]

I have been looking forward to this game and came close to pre-ording a few times. To be honest I am glad I held out because the gameplay videos aren't impressing me so far. I'm hoping for more user feedback over the next few days.

FXAA, MSAA & TXAA available along side SSAO (LOW), SSAO, HBAO+ (LOW) & HBAO+.

game runs at the usual ubisoft standard....like ****. High frames feel like low frames and low frames feel like bottoming out. Going to be some ****** off customers if it doesn't get a day 0 patch to sort it.
