Exclusive DLC is perhaps the stupidest thing to ever happen in gaming.
Sigh.
Anyway, looks good. Can't wait to finally play it.

It will never go away, it happens everywhere in our world. I was looking at credit cards yesterday and so many companies are offering "exclusive" content, like 0% on balance transfers, no rate of interest etc. It's the same here, it's too try and lure you over by saying, "look, we offer content no-one else has, why pay the same price for less content".
It's good, granted, it's not good if you've not got the system the content is being designed for, but it helps drive competition by offering consumers more stuff.

Visuals may not be stunning, but it looks like a fun game so I'll be getting it. Not sure if that'll be day 1 though.

I think I'll be able to hold off till we see the final result on PC.
What? If that's PC footage it's got even more downgraded than before.
Aside from turning down the details almost entirely, you mean? The reveal featured more than just one car and three NPCs on screen. lol

Looks fine to me. As long as the gameplay is good I'll pick it up still.

all they did was up-rez the 360/ps3 versions?

Meh, the more they show, the more it looks like Assassin's Creed: Chicago.
I predict there will be a large amount of useless shit to collect.

It really is. And if the exclusive content is on par with what Ubi made for ACIV on PS, that's going to be some rather shitty 60 minutes of gameplay.

Why? Didn't Edge say Infamous looked last gen.
Yeah so, why do people care about what reviewers say again. Watch Dogs looks much better now then it did.

No, it's just not wet there. And the DoF still has bokeh. It's more apparent in that gif because that is a cinematic so they've made a shallower DoF.new trailer
reveal
yeah looks like they removed reflections and even bokeh from the DoF
Here's some obvious reflections from today's trailer:

I don't like it either, but its better than 3rd party exclusives of entire games.

And some bokeh:
true , but they still seem to be missing the relfective quality on the cars/metal as seen in that gif, and perhaps the bokeh is only in the cinematics in the retail version, but it is defintly not in what I assume is a gameplay pic in my orginal posts. That is just a basic soft blur, and has the same problem of that effect in most last gen games of bluring out the whole image, and then puttiing the in-focus object on top, like you can see happening around the light post. There is defintly a reduction in shader, lighting and detail quality though. Makes me wonder if they had to scale back or downgrade the scope and gameplay as well.
Looks fun. Will most likely buy.

The explosion smoke / steam effect looks laughably bad.
Ok so its not just me? The smoke and explosions really detract from the overall feel of everything else... yes they are that bad almost comically so.
Faith completely crushed (again) after that trailer, and not because of the graphics. Hacking seems to be just a gimmick... with action, explosions and killing people the main focus.
Disapointing!

yeah... these trailers are kinda disturbing if you think about it lol. Aren't you pretty much a civilian running around beating up people and executing people at point blank, and shooting at cops?
gta is satirey, but this seems to be playing it straight.

The game looked better here than in the story trailer at least... :/
yeah makes me think he is throwing smoke grenades when he tosses that grenande at another part in the trailer. And then the smoke is practically glowing white when you see it at night, doesnt seem to follow any lighting. Or lack there of.
yes aside from everything else that has already been mentioned.

I'll forgive the game if they allow me to wear a suit and tie with no hat. Or at least give me an option to change into a fedora.
Then I can pretend he's a euphoric neckbeard with a mission. A mission to prove that was the worst. movie. ever.

I don't mind it as much when one version has the "full" experience. But something like MGS:GZ where each version is missing something is utterly ridiculous.
The explosions look fine!
....if the game was cel shaded.
I don't know what's going on with their lighting, but it seems completely borked. Everything looks flat. I've noticed they're avoiding any chance for use to create like for like comparisons based on older footage. Similar scenario's. But never the same weather or time of day. More importantly then the obvious downgrade though, is the game itself. It's devolved into a kill-a-thon action fest and outside of that looks incredibly boring, thanks in part to the hacking being simplistic and gimmicky. I was incredibly hyped for this game and no i really couldn't care less.
Realistically speaking, how much would the PC that was running the debut trailer cost to put together? This recent trailer is clearly not even remotely on the same level as what was initially shown. That's not to stay that this trailer doesn't look good, just that there is a clear discrepancy between the two.
I am hoping they do address your points in a future trailer, I will give them the benefit of the doubt with this trailer focusing on the "exclusive" content.
My faith restored comment is more Inline with:

Really looking forward to this. Just hope it errs more on the GTAV/Sleeping Dogs side of sandbox quality, and less on the GTAIV/Saints Row side. Bit worried about that obligatory Ubisoft open-world structure of climbing towers/hacking server centers to reveal various side-missions and collectibles in the surrounding area. I hate that shit in Far Cry and Assassin's Creed, so I hope I don't find it too off-putting here.

I'm still planning on buying it. It still looks fun. I hope you're not always forced to take things the full action-style way though.
