Watch Dogs - Aisha Tyler Trailer (director promises the graphics aren't this bad)

On the topic of The Division, I just noticed that the character doesn't react in any way to the flying debris kicked up by the multiple bullet impacts just inches away from his face.

I mean, it looks awesome, but it's really noticeable in slow motion.

Anyways, let's hope The Division doesn't see a similar downgrade.

LOL what should he do? try to catch them?
 
So it's current-gen footage? At least we now know the game will look like absolute ass on the PS360. It'll justify my PS4 purchase that little bit more.

Woah! Ammount of snow particles is insane but i don`t believe it until i played it myself. I hope that is not target render or running on PC with geforce Titan.

I would say it looks worse.

Then you didn't play GTA4 on consoles. Even on PC with better res and textures still looks bad. It is mainly due to lighting system in GTA4 which is horrific now but it was quite good several years ago.

What did happen with diminishing returns ?

It is confirmed by looking at the video with eyeballs that can see.

Come on people...how is this still a thing?

As indicated by the tweets linked to in OP, this isn't even representative of the current gen version.

And from what I've been told, the marketing dept fucked up badly on this one.

Jonathan Morin, creative director of Watch Dogs:

User: what version was that?

Morin: Its simply someone who don't know the tech who check the wrong stuff... So no versions here...

User: Why show it, then? iOS version?

Morin: You know sometimes 100s of people working together causes communications issues lets just say that ;)...

User: The graphic whores are all out today because of the Aisha npc trailer. For the whiners, What was that trailer running on?

Morin: No worry to have on graphics at all ;) believe me :)

User: Agreed. It looked like absolute shit.

Morin: Love your passion guys but I see the game every day and I can tell you, this trailer is far from it...

User: So it was a botched trailer? I thought it was hilarious lol. Just the visuals were shocking compared to E3

Morin: It was indeed hilarious in its own way I guess... ;)

GTA IV definitely hasn't aged well. I bought it for 5€ from the Steam sale and I still don't feel like I got my money's worth out of it. Even on highest settings the game still looks like crap and the character animation and voice acting is underwhelming.

Watch_Dogs should look better than GTA IV and way better than that trailer on current gen consoles. I suspect some major graphical settings were turned off when this build was running. I'm getting the PS4 version, though so I don't really care.

Not as tall as her real-life counterpart. Immersion broken.

Glad this is confirmed as current gen. Would be kinda pissed otherwise.

The Bokeh depth of field certainly points to either a PC or next-gen version. It doesn't mean it's using the right assets or whatever else could be going on though.

Did most of you guys miss the tweets where he says the current gen version looks better than the trailer and that the trailer was botched with the wrong settings and doesn't represent ANY release version of the game?

These few seconds are probably from the next gen version, the rest of the trailer is from another not-next-gen-not-current-gen version of the game. It's a badly cut trailer.

What a mess, Morin must be pissed. Props to him for replying to people on Twitter though, very cool guy.

It's not the last gen versions, looks too good for last gen (DOF and stuff). It's not the next gen versions apparently according to developer... so it's... Wii U? Or what.

lol.. woops. User: Agreed. It looked like absolute shit.

Didn't think he would've responded to me on that one.

Teamwork with shinobi602.
