DareToSlack posted:There's a mission fairly early on where they introduce the "getaway driver" mission type, and it is badass. You have to watch your minimap to avoid patrolling police cars, helicopters, and checkpoints. It feels almost exactly like Drive, the videogame. This needs us throwing in a Kavinsky soundtrack then.

I just hope I don't run into one thing that comes up constantly that drives me nuts like in Saint's Row 4. There was, for me, exactly one thing wrong with SR4. You could not shoot guns while super jumping. That was complete bullshit, one of the worst design choices they could have made. There is no goddamn reason in the world I should not have been able to glide across the city raining rockets and super powers down upon the populace like an angry God. But they did not let you do that, and it was bullshit. If they manage to not throw out one glaring problem that is a terrible design choice that I have to deal with literally every single fight I'll enjoy the hell out of this.

Driver San Francisco was the greatest driving game made, hands down. That had a meh gimmick, but it still was incredible fun, as I expect Watch Dogs to be. Just an hour more for the UK to wait.

Well poo poo I used up my 3 logins on that free FlyVPN thing trying to get the game to run, and the Japanese student thing is too complicated for me, so I give up and I'll just have to wait until it unlocks at 11pm my time.

Anyone else having a problem with the crosshair and profiler data wobbling slightly? It's not much, but it's annoying, and since the crosshair wobbles too I guess it's not an intentional effect. Apart from that, the game runs surprisingly well on my i5/7870 combo. Can run on high 1080p (With AA off) and get around 40-50 FPS in most of the city.

So if anyone else is like me and dearly misses the Marked Man events from Burnout Paradise, the end of Criminal Convoys is a lot like this, with many angry SUVs and high powered Aston knock-offs trying to kill you.

I agree that Driver San Francisco is the best driving game with the best driving mechanics. Watch_Dogs does not feel like Driver : San Francisco. It's not the worst driving I've ever played and theres definately some over the top comments of how bad it is, but it's definately down at the lower end of open world car physics. It's hard to place quite why it's wierd, but I think it's down to the input curves being kind of weird rather than anything on the physics side of things, but it definately feels quite stiff and unnatural when making relatively minor manouvers. I don't think it's unplayable or anything though, it's just a little rough.

It can't possibly be worse than Just Cause 2's vehicle physics.

Yeah the driving mechanics remind me of pre euphoria engine gta. They could be way way better, but I'm still enjoying driving around

Bobtista posted:It is. Most cars handle like blocks of ice at anything above average speed. Just cause 2 on the consoles had about a full second input lag that meant it felt like APB. (If you played it on a decent PC you wouldn't have that.) Watch_Dogs is nowhere near that bad.

This must've been downloading while my PS4 was idle. I just started it and everything was good to go but trying to start the game it greets me with "Only users who hold a license for this application can start it" . Guess it's still locked for some reason or another.

I played Just Cause 2 on PC. It wasn't any lag, it's just that the cars were way too loose. The game also wanted you to drive fast on small, curved roads a lot, and I always went off-road at the wrong times.

Played a couple of hours, reflections: -Not done much story yet, but I can imagine it getting incredibly cheesy later on based on the early missions. -Driving seems fine, however, some cars have vastly superior road grip to others. -The Alone digital trip gets surprisingly difficult during the later stages.(Unlocked the cheesy Alone outfit, woo) -You can choose between stealthing and rushing in guns blazing for most of the CtOS towers, which is neat. You can basically complete some of them without ever having to set foot inside the compund, just by chain-hacking various cameras/objects from the outside. -Invading is tense as hell. I've done three successful invasions, one where the host ran past me twice while I was chilling next to a tree. There's already many enough people online that finding a target doesnt' take more than a minute or so. -The Cash run minigame is some sort of lightweight parkour. I've only done the introductionary one, which was pretty easy, but there are scoreboards and medals for it. -NPCs are actually quite reactive to what you do. I had a guy swear me out because I reversed into his car. Really fun so far, and I've barely scracthed the surface.

Something seems to be up with my invasions, though I couldn't begin to say what. I can't actually interact with anyone I invade or anyone who invades me.

To the folks who have this already on the PS4, do you know if the code that comes with the PS4 version for the extra mission works or will that be when the game officially releases?

I was thinking of getting this tomorrow, but I have one concern. I haven't been able to hook my PS4 to the internet, as I haven't had a broadband connection since January (posting with phone tethering). I don't mind playing single player, but my concern is that I can't update my PS4 on account of not having proper internet. Is there a update I need that will keep me from even starting up the game, even if my console isn't hooked up to the internet in any way?

Anyone know when g2a usually send out their keys? Preordered it from them a while ago because it was dirt cheap (£24) and don't really want to be waiting till tomorrow evening.

Apparently that's actually the store page for the season pass. They took the Watch Dogs store page down because they are having CD Key issues.

How do you get the game to detect your microphone? I have one but it doesn't seem to detect it Is there anyway to group up with friends for the online decryption? It looks like fun but, it'd be even better if there was a way to coordinate with people.

This game doesn't work well with dual monitors. In fullscreen and borderless-window mode the mouse likes to leave the window and go to your 2nd screen. Fixed by using winkey+P to put windows in single monitor mode but still annoying.
