But I don't need to... I like to build it up some :banana: <--pee pee dance


Man I wish I wasn't buying a house right now- as it is I won't be able to pick it up until, like, a week after it's released :( f***ing priorities...

I really hope there is as much to this game as my mind is conjuring. I think Ubi typically has interesting stories, so I'm stoked to get in to this one.

Unlike some others, I can really appreciate some of the features in this game. I think it looks pretty good too, although we haven't seen any X1 footage yet. One of the things i like is all the "small" detail that makes games like GTA 5 and Red Dead so impressive. The way the wind actually blows trash and leaves around is such a nice touch, and I never thought I be so excited to see a guy put his hands in his pockets, lol. I'm hoping the cool water effects from PC vids is in the Console versions too.

I also really like how active/interactive the NPC seem to be. Impressions have made note of the very wide variety in NPC dialouge. Love those little touches. I read the devs say that the enemy NPCs will have more believable reactions to stealthy game-play, too.

I also dig the Farcry 3 style enemy hubs that unlock areas as you break into them. The World looks huge, and I may be able to get my wife into the smart glass city control stuff. WANT NOW!!!!
 
I'm going to bask in 900p/30 glory when May 27 comes. There, I said it.

Woah, no wonder Plainview started a new thread (just read the stuff I missed in the old one). For the love of God, can we please, please, PLEASE not talk about f***ing Console/PC piss tests? The game will have content parity, and we can all assume there will be resolution differences. Cool. All out of the way now.

I'm also really digging some of those features, Being able to stop a crime at random has me intrigued, from the devs walkthrough it does seem to be rather random. Yeh the enemy hubs are exactly the same but the radio towers are CTOS stations. You can't hack through a camera though....I think.

Also looking forward to some eves dropping through web cams :hehe:

I'm also guilty of derailing the old thread.

Here have some vids for the new thread :)

Stopping crime at random isn't new. This game is technically a modern day Assassins Creed without the climbing mechanics.
 
Ehhh. Cant say Im excited.
The game looked midly interesting at its reveal but ever since then it went downhill.

Will there be a demo? (Lol, probably not but no harm in asking :p)
 
I love a lot of what this game is supposed to offer...True freedom, everything is hackable, NPC interaction and events, quality A.I..etc. So for me, the worst thing that could happen now is finding out Ubisoft pulled a Peter M and exaggerated all their mechanics and ideas.

Only 12 days to go :bang:
 
Got a friend to buy this, so it'll be nice to play with others I know. I'll be down to do some multiplayer with union members on PC after I play single player a few hours.

This.
Now my only question is....will this come out on the NES?

If somebody told me this was the 360/PS3 version....id totally believe them.
Game looks like ass and its 30fps LOL UBI sucks.
 
Ubisoft: Watch Dogs on pace to become the most successful new IP in video game history

Ubisoft has high hopes for its upcoming open-world game, Watch Dogs. CEO Yves Guillemot said today in a statement that, "Watch Dogs' preorders are at record levels and it is perfectly positioned to become the industry’s most successful new IP in history." Specific figures were not shared, though Ubisoft said previously that the company expects the game to sell around 6 million units.

Ubisoft isn't the first publisher to make that claim. Activision also contends that Bungie's upcoming shooterDestiny will become the best-selling new IP in video game history. Watch Dogs launches May 27, while Destiny arrives on September 9.

In another statement today, Ubisoft said Watch Dogs is the most preordered new IP in Ubisoft's history and the most preordered new IP in the entire video game business this year. Specific preorder figures were not shared. Overall, Watch Dogs is the second-highest preordered Ubisoft game of all time, though it's not clear which game is number one.
 
I just bought Nvidia's coupon bundle of Watch Dogs on PC for $15. Almost bought it for XB1 but can't beat the price. Feels like I'm stealing something but yeah. Waiting for the release date.
 
ROFL it better have a huge gameplay ace up its sleeve cause I don't see it!

Not sure how you can see anything with no knowledge of the data used to predict such a thing. You say it needs a "gameplay ace", but Ubisoft is saying people are flocking to it. That would suggest it does not need anything.

The vids I posted are from PS4 I believe, so I would hate to see what it looks like on ps3\360. But considering that it is a open world game with random NPC events, hacking and being able to cause carnage with your phone I will take the slight downgrade not that is matters to me as I'm getting it on PC.


CDkeys has Steam keys for £22.90 at that price I'm not going to complain.

Are you F'ing kidding? lol it looks far better than any 360/ps3 game. I don't get you man, the second you see something isn't 60 fps you dump all over it, why do you bother?

No it doesn't in those videos.
Have you played GTA5? Cause it doesn't look much different VISUALLY speaking.
