Giant Bomb said that both the PC and PS4 versions were available, so maybe we'll see one for the PC later?

Oh, I really hope so.
I've been waiting for so long to see how the game truly is. Will be a huge letdown if the only thing we'll see is console footages after all this time.

 

[Apophis2036]

9 minute gameplay from Ubisoft directly - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKwn4nK5J28

Is this going up on Gamersyde ?, if so I will wait.

 

[Blimblim]

One thing about the spider tank not shown in the broll is that it can walk vertically on buildings, and you can jump from one to another, go on the roofs and all. Very well done, and surprising considering it's "just" a mini game.

 

[Fuu]

Looking good.

 

[Blimblim]

Is this going up on Gamersyde ?, if so I will wait.

Yep, in a few minutes.

 

[Sojgat]

I really like what I'm seeing, but why do all the cars seem to just be sitting around unlocked?

What happened to this?

Nice. Seems there us a lot to play around with.

 

[WordsintheWater]

Looks pretty damn good, excited for this.

 

[InfYn]

They'll find something to say the game was ruined.

It's already ruined for them, remember? It's not E3 2012.

 

[KOHIPEET]

Multiplayer gameplay looks super fun. I might actually end up buying this.

 

[InsaneLuchador]

Sweet! I can see myself picking this up. Probably not day one though so I can take my time with Transistor.

Cockpit view? :0

 

[SJRB]

The 9-minute multiplayer gameplay is incredible.

 

[Apophis2036]

Yep, in a few minutes.

Thanks a lot !

 

[fantomena]

Seems somewhat good.

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

gameplay looks EXACTLY the same as at gamescom 2013, like 100% nothing changed.
GFX wise, it looks a little worse (played it on ps4 aug 2013).

 

[Marleyman]

Multiplayer looks really cool; I am back into this game. Graphics downgrade isn't enough to make me dismiss the FUN I see.

 

[Breakdown Robot]

I will now be highly suspicious of every

Spoiler

taco van

I see when I play the game. All the multiplayer stuff looks awesome.

Also, cannot wait to mess with people using the app on my phone during lunch breaks at work.

 

[Blimblim]

It's up now, our download servers are basically dead so it's torrent and stream only, sorry.

 

[Insane Metal]

Holy shit, multiplayer looks extremely fun, very good. I'm definetely gonna buy this!

 

[jaypah]

About to watch tbh

Edit: looks good. Really good.

Lol, why would you lie about that? PS4 footage looks good. Might be in for this.

 

[iNvid02]

looks good, think i'll be happy with it for what i paid

 

[flaxknuckles]

Yeah and those small posts you can hack to rise up from the ground stop cars dead in their tracks. LOL

Man I love it when people expose themselves as basement dwellers

 

[dreamfall]

The invasion concept seems totally neat!

Still deciding between PS4/PC! But this looks to be a lot of fun!

 

[SolidSnakex]

Cockpit view? :0

Yeah, they confirmed that all cars have a cockpit view that you can drive in.

 

[Anion]

Cockpit view? :0

Im pretty sure they confirmed that some time ago

Edit: Beaten like a window

 

[BurnsyDelight]

Did you enjoy your Nexus 7?

Game looks good though, already have the pre-order down and it's unlikely to be cancelled.

I didn't get a Nexus 7. No Nexus 7 were given out at the San Francisco Ubisoft event.

 

[NullPointer]

This game looks looks really dull to me.

Yeah, none of this is clicking for me. The initial invasion/hack footage in the video made zero sense to me. No context whatsoever - just "hey there's a guy somewhere around here and now I have to kill him". Nobody dies and both parties kindof win.

The team oriented hacking looked more interesting but this kind of stuff always looks better when its staged with a team of players actually using tactics. Chances of seeing that kind of thing online? Maybe 5%

Yeah, they confirmed that all cars have a cockpit view that you can drive in.

OK, now THAT I like

 

[RulkezX]

I'm defiantly picking this up , looks like it's going to be a lot of fun.

 

[BurnsyDelight]

I really like what I'm seeing, but why do all the cars seem to just be sitting around unlocked?

What happened to this?

Lock picking kit

 

[Jobbs]

I don't mean to upet the party, but does anyone else find this pretty unremarkable? It just looks like GTA with phone hacking giving facts about random npcs.

I'm open minded and I'll give it a fair shake, but it just hasn't grabbed my interest at all from the videos so far.

 

[jett]

I really like what I'm seeing, but why do all the cars seem to just be sitting around unlocked?

What happened to this?

He hacks the car, obviously.

 

[BurnsyDelight]

is it me or does the ps4 version look good? honestly it does look good to my eyes, i await to see if its steady frames

You're not seeing the PS4 version in any video today. You're seeing PC footage. I played the game earlier this month on PS4 - the footage you're seeing today is from a high-end PC. http://www.slashgear.com/watch-dogs-gameplay-first-impressions-hands-on-eyes-off-23326250/

 

[tryagainlater]

Looks like it could be fun.

 

[Leona Lewis]

On-foot looks OK, but in-vehicle looks hysterically bad. It's like the car is skating on ice - just looks so off, and that's nothing to do with lighting or texture quality or the like.

High-quality assets mean nothing if the entire illusion of immersion isn't there.

(aka "Spend more money on animators, Ubisoft, plz k")

 

[Caayn]

I really like what I'm seeing, but why do all the cars seem to just be sitting around unlocked?

What happened to this?

If you look at the second video in the OP and watch around 3:20 you can see that Aiden seems to hack the car rather than it just sitting around unlocked. You see the turn signals flash and the car make a sound, he has his phone in his left hand the entire time.

 

[Blimblim]

I didn't get a Nexus 7. No Nexus 7 were given out at the San Francisco Ubisoft event.

From what our PR guy told us, and he's the rare trustworthy kind, The Nexus 7 "incident" was isolated to a few journos from the UK, no one else got anything besides the usual t-shirt.

 

[pokeystaples]

Is it just me or do the guns sounds really bad? My coworker compared them to PvZ pea shooter noises.

 

[Xater]

gameplay looks EXACTLY the same as at gamescom 2013, like 100% nothing changed.
GFX wise, it looks a little worse (played it on ps4 aug 2013).

And I still don't get excited by what I am seeing. It just looks a bit too much like every other Ubisoft open world game.

 

[Kyoufu]

Liking the look of it. Hype slowly rising.

I must say, that robot insect minigame looks like it's a lot of fun.

Everyone else is saying the footage is PS4

Oh - that explains all of the Dualshock prompts.

Ok, cool! I didn't know that.

PS4 only. As far as I can tell except for E3 2012 we have only ever seen the PS4 version.

BlimBlim, care to comment?

So the PC version has DS4 prompts, brah?

 

[GavinUK86]

Mind. Blown. Looks brilliant. Solidified my day one purchase on PS4.

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

that sidewalk

doesn't look that bad overall besides the shadows.
