[QUOTE=Appox;44904705]I get you're bitter because you might of put a pre-order down and now that's looking like a huge waste but that's why you never pre-order. Next time a big AAA game is coming out think, "this could be the next Watch Dogs, I should wait a bit"[/QUOTE]
Apparently you haven't noticed, but not everyone in this thread thinks that this game is bad/a waste of money and regrets their preorder.
The worrying thing being they've specifically said the driver team worked on the cars in watch dogs, I guess they handle alright but the damage model is horrendous and I'm further dissapointed by the lack of ability to use weapons in vehicles. I appreciate that the entire central mechanic in this game is hacking, and they want you to use hacking as much as you can but I've found it's now essentially to the point where they force you solely to use hacking if you want to disable/destroy cars and kind of sucks the fun out of it for me.
I've only put two hours into it as I wanted to see how it ran on my system and if I had any issues (780 and 4770k, not using the beta drivers and only occasional bouts of intense shadow flickering) and I've not really felt 100% forced to use hacks in every other situation, it's just my 2cents but I'd sure love to see some mods based around the vehicles down the line.
[QUOTE=SuperHoboMan;44904703]In the game settings config file, you can set the selAimAssist= to 0. It's the same as disabling mouse acceleration.[/QUOTE]
In game it's set at minimal and in the config it's set to 0 and it still does it in game so.....? not much else I can do regarding that I guess unless they patch it.
[QUOTE=Nik1895;44904666]I only get stuttering if I set Shadows to Ultra. Lowering it to High removes stuttering. Didn't touch texture quality, though, left it at medium. With everything else set to Ultra and resolution set to 720p I get 20 FPS on my GTS 450. Quite playable if you ask me.[/QUOTE] Why are you trying to max out this game on a GTS 450? That card doesn't even meet the minimal specs.

Bitter? I'm enjoying the fuck out of watch dogs. Only thing I don't like is the boring driving.
Don't tell others how to invest my money. I preorered Watch Dogs after I had hands on with the game in January, and I don't regret it.
Again, your opinion is not fact.

yeah I'm just talking like generally, cos in general it's being panned.
Anyone else notice that you sometimes can warp through trees and other static objects if you steer away from them that very moment? I've literally driven through trees this way.
A familiar sight

[QUOTE=bobsynergy;44904632]What? people like me came into the thread giving our opinions on the game just saying "meh its not worth it personally get it on sale" and Egevened says "don't listen to the morons who had super high random expectations and thought it would revolutionize gaming!!!"
The difference between the 2 posts is one person doesn't care and the other actually doesn't like people not liking what he likes. Spot which one is which ;) just don't get all defensive for no reason lol.[/QUOTE]
sounds like you took a tad bit too much offense from a pretty tame comment from someone who liked the game

I was visiting that area too ... sad to see place was dongraded too... for example no lightbulbs on that entrance roof, also I was hoping for gas station explosions from 2012 with that awesome ringing in ears noise after explosion
I will still enjoy the game though, but these were little details that definetely caught my attention back in 2012
Having fun with it so far. Worse than I was expecting in 2012, of course, but surprisingly better than I was expecting in the last few months. Love the unrealistic crash physics :v:

it's funny that people say that this game looks good because the only thing that looks good in it are the textures when they're on ultra
this game looks like asshole. everything is washed out except for the cars which stand out like a sore thumb because they are so vivid in color. it's like nobody knew what color scheme to go with so the whole game just looks weird
Call me old fashion, but gameplay is all that really matters to me. Sure, high powered super graphics would be nice to look at, but in the end, unless you're being a super critical asshole, it [I]really[/I] doesn't matter as much as people seem to be making it matter.
It's hilarious how most of those people saying that this game is shit haven't even played it themselves, just check their post history if you need proof
3/10 trolling, didn't even get mildly butthurt

The main problem people have with the graphics is that they don't look as good as E3 2012. I think the game still looks great, but I can see why people are angry about it.
They really should have worked more on weapon handling instead of creating a ton of guns no one will use, or added weapon upgrades instead. Why would I ever use any pistol other than the silenced 1911 or the burst fire revolver?

haha, I've already said this a few pages back. That and when you get to the gun store you already have the funds to buy a grenade launcher. They're like "BUY THE 416 ASSAULT RIFLE" but I just bought that instead and it's been my primary weapon since the first thirty minutes in
[editline]25th May 2014[/editline]
it's so stupid that they GIVE you the godliest pistol in the game right from the start, like who's idea was that
[editline]25th May 2014[/editline]
not that it matters. the gunfighting is so clunky, semi-auto weapons are just scary to use
Looks pretty damned good to me, I hung around the district with the demarco mission at night time and it looked nearly close to the E3 demo bar the foggy filter. The AA is godly in comparison to any other open world game I've played, the lighting is fantastic bar the headlights not projecting shadows and the reflections are equally beautiful.
Not quite sure what else there is that could be horribly criticised, it's hard for people to argue about something looking bad without comparing it to something they both think looks good. It definitely looks better than most other open world games as a standard, so you'd really have to go out of your way to generalise a comment such as "this game looks like asshole" with no specific examples or screenshots.

Go watch that video again, They managed to script a mission that had great atmosphere, but the textures aren't that great, It honestly ins't that visually impressive like people still think it is.

We must be playing two different games.
One setting I changed that had a noticeably effect was setting the brightness correctly. The default was way to bright, so I lowered it almost all the way. Suddenly everything wasn't so washed out during the day.

It works well? Sweet.
Was thinking about doing this next time I play.
That's my main gripe with the graphics really, the lighting during the day is awful in comparison to night.
They should add an option for night-only.

it literally looks like gta 5's "semi-realistic" lighting during the day mixed with saints row's ridiculously vivid colors at night. The depth of field is a major turn off too since it's really splotchy, at least for me, which make everything look weird. but as a standard for me I always play games with motion blur and usually DOF off just because of that.
the debris on the street and the clutter is really nice though, I'll give it that. people have been saying there's not enough peds on the street but I think it looks really accurate; there's not too many and there's not too little.
if you think the game looks good though, get your head out of the gutter. it doesn't. the lighting is mediocre at best and the visuals as a whole look like they came out in 2009 if even

Did you have to turn it back up again at night? :v:
I hate how the depth of field makes the dashboard in cockpit view blurry. Who the hell thought to themselves that was a good idea?
After turning down mouse acceleration, installed the new drivers the game runs smooth as butter and feels nice, it looks for sure a bit tonned down but holy shit its FUN i turned the street lights to green in a high traffic way and i just saw how each car crashed over and over ontop of each other.. it was glorious
Visually it looks pretty good too i only wish the sounds werent so damm "quiet" i have to turn my speakers all the way up to PROPERLY hear voices
