Watch Dogs [Leaked Footage]

The difference between night and say is ... errm ... night and day.
Lack of AF in the supposed X1 footage is a real bummer.
 
You seem second only to iambladers for shitting on this game. You seem to hate it so much, yet you're always in the threads. Very strange.
How is asking a legit question hating? You seem hellbent on taking up for a game you have no stock in.
 
That's a 60 fps gif. Y u do dis?

Edit: Am I crazy? It looks 60 to me when he makes the aiming adjustment between the two cars.

I think that's what stable 30 fps is supposed to look like :) Don't think we've ever seen it in open world games on last gen really :)
 
I saw several copies being sold yesterday. I live in the same town as the guy who made ​​the video of the PS3 version. No PS4 version, though.

I'm entitled to my right to dislike the game, as for me being iambladers, you must be lost or something and its really rich coming from you. If you don't like my observation on the laptop, put me on your ignore list and move on with your life.
 
I guess you missed his previous posts.
The one where I said a picture looks embarrassing because it was? It's now a crime to call things as it is or call out ubisoft on their bs? Is it a crime to be disappointed by a game with wasted potential? Please, move along, backroom moderating is against the tos.

wth, that laptop is ridiculously big?

It's sorta the same phenomenon as LoS2, and was explained years ago in a max payne presentation: to account for third person cameras you need to draw environments almost twice as big and it's easy for the artists to lose their sense of proportions because of that. Most certainly what's happening here.
 
Seeing these daytime shots Ubisoft should have really made this a night only game. How the difference is so huge is staggering.
 
This is hilarious, perfectly showcases the kind of criticism this game gets.
The reason this game gets so much criticism is because of e3 2012. No one can deny that the game has gotten significantly worse with each showing. What I don't understand is how your game can end up looking worse with an increased dev time. It's truly outstanding.
 
I'm already tired of the comparisons with GTA V.

Beta quality, it still looks better on night than on day (at least in beta quality footage)
 
too bad the day time lighting is shit

So this game is really last-gen at daytime and next-gen at night.

I think GTA has a better lighting engine.


I think it's as simple as Ubi's artists not being as good as Rockstar's in this case because GTAV has great looking sunlight and looks more pleasing in clear day conditions than W_D.



LOL at the female on the right.
Literally 10fts, and it looks like a doll. Even GTA has better draw distance than that =(.
And the car on the left...yeah...next gen is here.

Yo that screenshot is ass, are there more?

Low resolution + lack of AA = bad graphics

but I just wanted to point out that the daytime footage looking meh is certainly not because it's supposed to be bland..

Ubisoft did deserve most of the shit they got, GAF hyperbole or not. Basically their out of touch approach all but confirmed a downgrade. The game's (very) far from ugly but they know and we know - it ain't quite what we saw a couple years back, and they got caught in that lie but never fessed up.


hhahaha i love it. i luv it.
can't say i didn't warn you ppl!

footage of daytime from summer 2013 before being removed.

In 2012 that took a shot at what they expected next gen consoles to be capable of. It appears that the consoles have fallen below that expectation.

That is fine but one could argue that infamous has come close to matching that benchmark. What is concerning though is that they showed this game at sony's conference at e3 2013 running on "ps4" and that footage ran at a higher resolution than today's game and it looked significantly better as well.

I'm gonna say that Ubisoft probably had a good reason to scale back on the visuals. Maybe the framerate kept tanking, things couldn't get done or other reasons.

I highly doubt Ubisoft had a meeting where they went "So, Watch Dogs our new IP that we're banking on becoming the next Assassins Creed. How can we best fuck it up, make it uglier and make everyone hate us".

Shit like this happens because of technical reasons that are probably extreme valid but will never be public knowledge.

It is because people behave like sheeps on the internet. And many are blind.

The E3 footage was 1) on a high-end PC, the best you can find, confirmed many times 2) an optimized sequence of the game for an E3 audience.
What have we seen since ? 1) mostly PS4 live footage 2) gameplay sequences that will be in the actual game.

Also I think the game had a bad development, maybe with bad ressources management or not enough ressources, poor optimization due to the last-gen port (which need to be good enough) and maybe other reasons.

Infamous in next-gen only and hasn't go the same density.
The E3 2013 footage looks really close to the footage we've seen on PS4 since. Look a the 400mb files leaked yesterday.

No, it's when you say things like this:
Given ubisoft history, the focus should be on the incompetence of the developers and not on a perceived deficiency in the consoles.

Honestly, it's truly embarrassing for ubisoft. Morin and crew should be ashamed.

I am surprised at the level of incompetence displayed by ubisoft.

There's just absolutely no need for these kind of comments.
 
No AF here either....or very low. maybe 2 x. looks poor

there is definitely AF, but combining the 900p upscale with a post process AA that seems to be smearing texture quality, it's hard to tell.

the shot with the crosswalk and the road lines definitely demonstrates AF.
 
So many

Wow I was expecting so much more. If infamous have have such clean visuals wtf is UBI doing with their massive team.

I like you, everyone thinks that we should like all games in here but everyone has an opinion. I don't like this game either and if I want to say something bad about it then I will. Ubisoft fucked up on this one to be honest; I just want to see what that pc version looks like because I won't pick this up on my consoles.
 
keeping in mind that the beta has lower quality assets compared to the final game in order to keep the download size down, as the NDA clearly mentions.
This should be quoted under every screenshot

Because I was lying right? Right? It's not embarrassing to release something that looks worse than when you revealed 2 years ago? I named dropped because of the interviews I read and talk about cherry picking posts. Try and read the whole thread next time. If you don't like my posts, move on with your life by putting me on your ignore list which is what I'm about to do to you. Your backroom moderating is starting to piss me off and you need to get out of my face. Btw, keep your sense of morality to yourself, it's as useful to me as filthy rags.
