Can we not quote 100-200MB+ worth of gifs please
And I can understand why GTA does hood view. Realistically first person views of cars in games really isn't that realistic because you lose a massive amount of situational awareness from the view of the car that you actually have when driving in real life. Problem is games can only have FoVs of 60-90 at best to look normal, and putting that small of an FOV while in a car means your actual situational awareness while driving in a game is extremely narrow and tunnel-visiony on top of the dash blocking most of your view. Meanwhile in real life your FoV in a car is closer to 120-160, so you basically have full situational awareness of whats going on around you except in your blind spots.
Its why I've never really gotten into serious playing anything but racing games in first person view for cars because its SO much harder driving a car in a game in first person than doing it in real life, just because the dash takes up half your view and you have zero peripheral vision. But when you actually drive a car, your dash hardly takes up any of your perceived view unless you are focusing on it.
[QUOTE=Yin;44825927]Also, I like how the guy in the bloody screen gif missed with the shotgun twice while up close. Mainly because that's the kind of mistake I actually do in games.[/QUOTE]
He didn't miss. The guy he was shooting at was an objective, as in un-killable.

Oh, it just looked like he missed because there was no hit marker. My mistake.
Still something I would do though :v:
I'm not really understanding the whole pine forest/mountains thing for chicago
I've been to chicago, its miles and miles of suburbia surrounding the city, and outside of that is nothing but farms and flatlands. Its located in Illinois - a completely flat farming state nowhere near any pine trees or mountains.
I mean, I love pine trees and mountains and all. I just find it funny they took a famous city that is basically located in the midwest US, also famous for giant masses of nothing but flatlands and farms and decided it should instead be located in the pacific northwest with mountains/pine forests/etc :v:

I'll take mountainous forests over empty farmland any day lol
that red jacket is fucking hideous
Have they talked about customization? Like, how many outfits in the basic game we'll be bale to choose from etc.

I think they just decided to take Starved Rock and slap it around Chicago

Considering all the different editions I'd say at least 500

I wonder how hard it would have been to just give us a color pallet and let us choose the clothing colors ourselves. But yeah in the age of DLC this isn't gonna happen when they can charge for more colors.
Also the driving seat view looks a lot like Far Cry 3/BD to me.
i hate watching videos of seeing people "walk" around
let's be realistic. nobody has time to walk around. we all know exactly how this is going to go down: you're going to either sprint everywhere or hijack vehicles to move two blocks. don't even bother making walking animations; just give me infinite sprint
also I will have to say first person driving is pretty cool. I wasn't expecting that

honestly probably all of the outfits that are non-default will probably look like complete ass or will get old really quick like in most games
honestly, gta v nailed costumes the best solely because the characters CHANGED their outfits every day. You might not be swapping from aiden to t-bone constantly or whatever but you'll probably have to sleep or whatever, so it'd be cool to just wake up in your jam-jams and run around the city in a robe like you're edward norton in fight club. MAKE THIS POSSIBLE. the coat physics are already there
First thing I do in these games is just walk around on the streets in no general direction. Great way to soak up the world and stumble upon unexpected things.

it's a ubisoft game, remember? aka you won't get the leisure to just walk around and explore. not for the first four hours. that's tutorial time
Yeah uh
is WD going to have changeable clothing?
[QUOTE=Mbbird;44827286]Yeah uh

Seeing as there's like fifty preorder/DLC outfits, then yeah, I think so

I can wait.
[QUOTE=Beacon;44826056]that red jacket is fucking hideous[/QUOTE]
what, you don't want to walk around as dante?
I have a feeling customization for the protagonist will be minimal. You'll probably only be able to switch into certain whole outfits, and unable to swap around individual things. Which means we're probably stuck with that totally innocuous coat.

I believe an ironic use of "inconspicuous" is what you're looking for here.

[QUOTE=Notanything;44828257]If you insist.[/QUOTE]
Well, I would hope the coat isn't harmful or offensive..
The fact that I had to acknowledge it's ugliness is offensive enough for me.
[QUOTE=Janus Vesta;44825502]Shame this game resorted to "Bloody screen, SO REAL!" It makes even less sense in third person games.[/QUOTE]
I disagree 100%.
Bloody screen in first person? What visible specs of blood are you gonna see with your fucking eyeballs if they get dirty?
Bloody screen in third person? We can assume we're seeing everything from a hypothetical camera, that may or may not have hypothetical plexiglass protection. It just makes way more sense to me personally. I mean, it made sense in Gears of war (1) because they made a point in making the third person camera look like a documentary photographer following you around, complete with extra shaking while you're running. They said that in a few interviews. I keep that mentality with me in other third person games, I guess.
There's a GameStop commercial showing three of the outfits (one already shown on this page).

can i wear a long sleeve shirt or hoody like a normal person
jhaahaha those look awful
[editline]16th May 2014[/editline]
honestly I'm with the above poster, those coats in general just look absolutely atrocious
you can tell aiden was the wimpy pasty-white techy nerd kid that got picked on at school judging by his wannabe trench coat. nobody in their right mind would wear that
[editline]16th May 2014[/editline]
I bet he bought those coats right before the designer killed themselves and the discount store that sold them went out of business

They look straight out of the bad korean fashion you find on Ebay and Amazon.
I bet he stole those coats. He probably saw them and was like "man, that'd make me look super suspicious and cool if I wore those but I would NEVER spend money on this shit"
that's why he's a wanted vigilante: he's wanted for theft. in this game, the protagonist is a known hobo coat hijacker
[editline]16th May 2014[/editline]
I don't get how you can go around the city and be all in cognito when you wear this huge, obvious, and definitely ratchet-as-fuck apparel.
everyone else are wearing t-shirts, button-downs and whatever other casualwear you can think of. It's summer time. It's 90 degrees out. SUDDENLY BARRELING DOWN THE ALLEY IS A MAN IN A FAUX LEATHER TIE-DIE COAT THAT DRAGS ON THE FLOOR
It's like instead of playing assassins creed, you play as an assassins creed cosplayer

A badass isn't a badass without a huge as coat to go with it. That's the way it goes I suppose.

kinds of people that look good in long coats:
cowboys
banditos
'60s detectives
women
kinds of people that don't
everyone else
