This looks bad?
You guys are high
Day 0 for me....looks hella fun and *I* am still psyched for Watch_Dogs
New 340.x nvidia drivers could do wonders for Watch Dogs.
Yep, the gameplay we've seen so far looks grea... oh wait, it doesn't.

@colinj_graham @shinobi602 @djgonacho how recent was the build use to make the chicago trailer ?
colin graham ‏@colinj_graham 2h
@tiberiuslive @shinobi602 @djgonacho very recent.
The PS4 version will probably look and run better than it will on most PC's, and by the time you have a PC that will run it better you will probably be able to buy it on Steam for $5-$10.yeaaa...
I'm kinda stuck. I don't know whether to get it for my ps4 or for my PC. I'm kind of leaning towards the PC as it will end up looking better in the future, and its almost guaranteed to be BC forever, unlike the ps4 version. But then, I don't know how well it will run on my PC compared to the ps4 version.
decisions decisions....
Not sure if posted but the trailer is from a '''very recent'' build.

You forgot to add "in my opinion".
Didn't know it was illegal to like the look and premise of this game all of a sudden on here.... Oh wait, it is.
Gamers have gotten spoiled Klee. They didn't deal with slowdown in 2D games and the technical feat that was sustaining a modestly-consistent 25fps in a 3D game like Starfox. Now its a crime if an ornately material-textured, physics-modeled coat dares to clip through an ankle. LOL. If this game looks like this trailer and the ps4 TV ads, then the word "bad" is really out of place. PEACE.This looks bad?

I think i meet the recommended requirements for this game though.....so I'm wondering if it will look as good on my PC. man I miss the days when you could get demos for just about any game on PC to see how games run
@colinj_graham is there a big graphics jump from xboxone/ps4 to pc?
colin graham ‏@DanXcel stay tuned for an answer on that one. Obviously it depends on which PC config you have...

Was it PC footage or PS4? I am guessing PS4 since there was some noticible aliasing and shimmering.
But what about us R9 owners (R9 270 here)?
Why don't they ever mention the platform it's running on?
How many more times will I get to see you be melodramatic in Watch_Dogs threads until release?
Interesting, do you have a source?The 1st trailer "apparently" ran on a gtx 680 and intel i7 so the performance might actually be half decent.

Oh please, fucking spare me. I've been playing video games since the early 70s, I've probably forgotten more games than you've ever played in your whole life... but I haven't gone blind yet, so I can easily detect how far down the scale Watch Dogs has slid since it was unveiled, and since it was shown again just a year ago. That in itself isn't the crime of the century, but when it so clearly comes down to cross gen development, which is the product of greedy execs who won't be satisfied with the level of profit they would make off of the current gen versions alone... yeah that does chap my hind and I'll have my say about it.
They're both "next gen" open world games, so it's perfectly fair to compare the two.
The lighting looked really great in several sections of that short clip.
So exactly how much worse does it look to last year's PS4 version at E3? The 2012 reveal was always known to be on PC, so I'm not sure why people keep bringing it up.

I think this game looks excellent for a launch window title (and new engine) given how long they've been working on the game and how long the dev kits have been available. Lot of whingers in this thread that think launch titles should be harnessing full power or something.
Take that clip with a big sack of salt. Every leave in the street is modeled in 3D. That's not the case in any trailer or gameplay, where leaves are flat decals.
What do you want, a number?
Bottom line is that they revealed it way too early, long before it was anywhere near its finalized form. That needs to stop. They shouldn't show us anything that isn't going to make it into our hands the day the game ships. (Within reason) Showing off your game two years before it's finished is stupid and unnecessary.
Looks like a prerendered CG trailer to me. They still do that for games these days unfortunately. For example:True. The whole clip has crazy-good image quality (for what it's worth on YouTube).

So companies should only reveal games a week before release then? Because that's what you're implying.
There is never a right or wrong time to reveal a game. People need to stop pre-ordering games and understand that nothing is promised in game development.

I think the point is that developers shouldn't reveal a game when the reveal is so far out that the final game looks drastically different than what they reveal. For instance, GTAV was revealed.. what, 18 months before release? But the final version looked pretty close to what was shown early on... obviously some drawbacks and scaling down the graphics, but it was still pretty close. Watch_Dogs, on the other hand, has significantly stepped back from the early reveal.
So, it's not about "date," but just... When you reveal something, if it's supposedly in game, let's try to reveal something that looks mostly the same as what you're going to get when the game ships.
Why do think I said "Within reason"? Jesus fucking Christ, the tap dancing on this shit...
Remember when Ubisoft "won" E3 with that very first demo? That's a funny thing.

Which is to say, expect bullshit as the norm.Or you could just do like any reasonable person and enjoy the target renders and early footages for what they are and keep your expectations in check.
Haha, here is your attentionThe game doesn't look "that much worse" than GTA V on PS3. It looks on par with Saints Row The Third which I thought had pretty good graphics.
"Within reason" is subjective. What if the final PC version stands up to the 2012 reveal? Then what? If that becomes the case then they were actually well within their rights to reveal the game how and when they did. It's not like they ever even said it was ps4 footage or that it was running on the ps4. They couldn't even at the time as no next gen consoles were even announced or had been given final specs at that point.
