Jimbot posted:I hope the spidertank stuff garners a lot of attention and it leads to Ubisoft using the concepts in this game to make a Ghost in the Shell open world game. I'd buy the hell out of that game. When I first saw the hacking stuff I immediately thought of that franchise.

NeoSeeker posted:So why call them spider bots? Because that is what they look like? Just because it doesn't meet the biological definition of a spider doesn't mean people do not appropriate the term because it fits the design better.

They look like bugs. More like beetles. A bug has to have 8 legs to look like a spider, at least to me. Otherwise it looks like any other bug besides a spider. NeoSeeker fucked around with this message at 21:00 on Apr 24, 2014 |

This game must be so good that people end up spending two pages just to about number of legs instead of picking apart something more important. No really, who gives a flying poo poo. It looks like a spider. Deal with it.

NeoSeeker posted:They look like bugs. More like beetles. Okay. And I guess you get to call it a bug-bot. The rest of the world will continue to call it a spider because of its big butt.

This happens in literally every single medium where something is called a spider and does not have 8 legs. Somethingawful: where we chase the Platonic Ideal of things.

Obviously this is another case of the PC release being hampered by console specifications. Hey game developers, just because consoles can't handle all eight legs is no reason to punish us PC gamers! gently caress YOU UBISOFT

The extra two legs are a uPlay unlock.

Was the use of the word/s platonic ideals necessary or is it just a six dollar word/phrase? Big Butt means beetle. It's a god drat bug bot. Yes I will get hung up on semantics because I came out the the womb holding a mini tachikoma and a plug in the back of my head. corn in the bible posted:Haha, what the hell dude calm down it's a goddamn videogame. Again. I should replace my title with big pink letters that say "this post is said in complete monotone". I swear and poo poo casually.

So exactly how "Chicagoy" is this game? Reading up on it, it features a place called "The Mad Mile". Does Chicago charge more to say "Mag Mile"? Not even sure what The Wards and Farmer Square is supposed to be.

GigaPeon posted:So exactly how "Chicagoy" is this game? Considering in some footage I've seen what looks like giant rolling hills off in the distance, I don't have a ton of faith that they'll be going for accuracy here. In other words, my dreams of reenacting the final chase scene from the Blues Brothers will probably not come to fruition.

It's probably going to be like every other game set in a real city- all the major landmarks are present, but they're far too close to each other.

Doesn't it have this weird park with big LCD screens of faces with water pouring down them? I went there when I was like 10 and I remember it because it was so goddamn weird. I better be able to hack that in Watch Dogs, i'm tellin ya.

Chicago at least has buildings that look different from each other, compared to NYC's skyline of "Big ugly square next to another big ugly square".
