Also worth noting that apparently even setting things to ultra in the menu doesnt always put it at true ultra, you have to edit an xml file.

<quality ResolutionX="XXXX" ResolutionY="XXXX

and

DeferredFxQuality="console"

Changed to: DeferredFxQuality="pc"

I think it's the problem with leaked versions and it may be configured to PC settings already in retail version . Game looks amazing in 'REAL' Ultra settings .

You really have to find uncompressed vids to do this game justice. Having said that.. it's still was a "bait and switch" move by Ubi. My interest "re-peeked" after seeing the PS4 launch trailer, but I'm still not convince that it's worth $60.

Looks good. Gameplay most important aspect though. Hopefully not Assassins Creed non-game.

I've got the game early, here are some of my screenshots:

I have to agree with Wasdie, most screens and videos out there don't really do it justice. It looks great on PC.

Looks pretty nice sure it will look even better in motion maxed out at 60+fps and looks like it could really benefit from sweetfx.

It looks like a last-gen game even with all the bells and whistles turned on in Ultra settings. I also don't believe there was a downgrade. Yes, they showed the PC version at E3 while neglected Xbox One and PS4 versions since their kits were not even out at the time. There was no false advertising, when I compare E3 version of Watch Dogs and current version I see very little difference. If there is even one it's barely noticeable. Watch Dogs is what it is, if you like the genre and the setting then you will enjoy the game. If graphics was your only expectation then I'd reckon you'll be very disappointed.

so consensus is this game looks like crap pretty much no matter what during the day, but at night, it looks pretty good even on the current gen systems? (and yes i said current, time to stop calling them next gen for anyone that still might)

Where is the often talked about PC power?

Which has absolutely nothing to do with how a the game looks maxed out, If Watch Dogs doesnt look good to you maxed out on a PC its because thats how far the devs went with the graphics, it has nothing to do with the power of the PC its running on, PC power is how good a PC will be able to run the game maxed out which will vary depending on PC specs of course, regardless the PC version maxed out will look better than your favorite most powerful console in the world in the history of gaming the PS4 version all in its 900p glory.

Why tell people that? Did you invent PC's? Is it a personal achievement to you that PC's are more powerful than consoles? Just Shat ap ya li'l rascal.

Wonder if the game allows you to make it look like an accident. Say when he's crossing the street you could change the lights.

I don't think so, not sure if you can even change your clothes at all. I just got the game and looked around the city for a bit

Looks like fun to me. I've played tech demos before, hopefully the game has good pacing and a decent story. Really don't care about graphics as the best graphics often have nothing to do with which game is fun or not.

I have a nice PC, moderate GTX 680. 16 GB ram. But guess what? I just know that console exclusives will raise the bar in graphics. Because, guess what? PC's don't have 1 fully 8th gen game out there. WD is on PS3/360. Same game but at lower resolutions, textures, and lighting.

Uh so, I could care less about exclusives because Guess what? Thats not what the other poster I quoted was talking about and neither was I, and Guess what? Consoles will only raise the bar for console graphics because........ Guess what? Well because these are next gen consoles.

Oh Guess What?

The compression is horrid on those videos.

The game went for a much more "realistic" look and thus it doesn't pop out as beautiful but it's not a bad looking game. I just got new GTX 780 and a 1440p monitor. I'll take some good videos and pictures to show off here when the game comes out. I don't think the game is going to end up looking that bad.

Get a custom BIOS on that 780!! I had mine clocked at 1.4Ghz on a crappy Arctic cooling hybrid and it was STUPID fast... BF4 on Ultra with 4xMSAA locked at 60fps at 2560x1440.

The waves in GTA5 looks better though.

C'mon, you gotta agree, especially considering the hardware it's running on. I remember driving towards the beach and being blown away by the water. ****. I just dived right in there. Went for a swim. Felt real.

Water splashing against my not-so-hairy chest.

Yeah, I don't have a lot of hair on my body. One day, I will. I'm like the least hairy half-Italian man on the planet. It's not even funny. My chest hair looks like a skinned eagle, spreading its wings.

I hate to be that guy but Infamous shits all over this game graphics wise. The only thing it has good going for it are the nice water and the higher resolution and 60fps on PC, other than that it looks horribly bland. Ubisoft definitely pulled a bait and switch on this game, looks nothing like the original reveal even on superior PC hardware.

My Infamous screens I took while playing the game, no bullshots or promo shots here...

The graphics of Watch Dogs are even more of a joke when you see the ridiculously high system requirements you need to get it to run smoothly on Ultra settings. It's an unoptimized POS like other Ubi games. I can't wait for some better devs to show the noobs at Ubi how to do a proper 8th gen open world game on PC.

@scottpsfan14:

And how many open world PC games have been released on the same time frame as I:SS?

No shit a game that only had to be coded to run on 1 platform looks better than a multiplatform game that's also limited for being on last gen.

Actually, Saints Row 3 has better art direction and is probably more fun.

That setting still doesn't bring a lot of graphical tech that are being used in other next-gen games. But texture work seems to be improved. I think Gamersyde will have the answer to all our questions regarding graphics.

@scottpsfan14: it's only incomparable because it looks better than infamous. If it didn't you'd love to compare the two. You sound real fanboyish right now. In trumps infamous in pretty much every way and it is only in alpha.
