Gonna track down that serial killer as soon as I see that mission pop up.

It's the sort of game where if you're going into it looking for things to complain about and dislike it, you'll find them.

That thing about the train tracks above, like in all honesty that's splitting hairs.
I've no interest in waiting on a train track to see it do a 90 degree turn, it's just more senseless complaining tbh.

The only issue you can't avoid while playing is the crash detection when driving.
You can get through narrow gaps far too easily without losing momentum.
It more or less has to be a dead aim central hit to stop/slow you down.

Same with poles and bus stops etc, far too many just explode into dust instead of having an impact(or stopping you) in GTA.

Anything sort of to the sides will see you continue on fine.

That is probably the biggest issue with the game so far., if that's an issue for someone then it's certainly a potential deal breaker.
Most other complaints is getting into nit picking IMO.

While the driving may not be as solid as GTA, the combat is far better.

Driving: GTA>Watchdogs
Shoot outs: Watchdogs> GTA

It's only a shame you can't change some button configurations on console.
I'm finding it awkward pressing A to enter cover and keep mixing A and B up and climbing a lot.

Did anyone here buy WD from the Euro PSN store and was able to download it a few days early?

I want to get EA UFC which is on the PSN store now but it says 'expected to be released 20 June' (actual release date). I want to get it digitally but would need a few days to download it.

Took me about ten tries to do the first criminal convoy mission last night. Its ridiculous to have to ambush the two cars, kill all the reinforcements they get, then somehow get up to the two guys, and have to physically knock them out, rather than kill them or shoot them in the leg :x

There's an obvious trap for them in an alley if you follow the yellow path backwards. You can pin them in with the blockers on each side and they are stuck there. But then they manage to kill themselves...

Aye I found it eventually. But then you have to be able to knock them out without getting killed, while also being shot at by their mates, and if you try to knock down while holding a weapon you kill them :mad:

Sorry, meant to say that it was an obvious place to trap them but it just doesn't work. I ended up separating them on the street and picking their mates off with a car first.

On the flip side, as much fun as causing traffic accidents are the pedestrians are a bit braindead; Hop out of the car, do an animation and then stand there gawking into the distance and then just abandon their cars on the road (Something all sandbox games do and something I always notice.) As far as I know, they're supposed to talk to each like exchange information but haven't seen it yet.

I saw a car rear end another ambiently as I was walking down the street, I'd just finished a mission and wasn't doing any hacking. They got out and had a bit of a chat, apparently it was just a rental...

It reviewed slightly better than Second Son, make of that what you will.

Are we seriously not doing phrasing anymore?

Well feck you all, I think I've seen enough on this that I want to get it, but I've got an AMD Crossfire graphics setup and they seem to be running below par, so I'm awaiting some patches and the new beta drivers for AMD hit last night so there might be some help there.

Ha I just met her in person and am now stalking her :pac:

She's was inside

the glass square during the spanner in the works mission where you have to look for that guys neice

Temptamperu

I just finished act 1, that was awesome. I like the stealth but its a bit shaky around bars and protrusions. Took a few retrys just because of that but an amazing level all the same.

Hey guys I've a voucher for xtravision and wondering what game would I be better getting. Choice between watchdogs and wolfenstein. Anybody play both and what would you recommend ?

Rossi IRL

That akward moment on gang hidouts where you knock the boss down in a car 10 times and get hideout failed only to then google it to see its a different type of "knock down" needed

SherlockWatson

Must say that the game is too fun, the SpiderTank is just awesome!!

I'd say most people did that tbh.

You'd think it would say ''Knock out''.

I copped it quick enough as I managed to 'knock him down' on my third attempt but it still took another 5/6 goes to actually do it.

You die quick, I keep making a hames of the buttons as well, some awkward ones(A + B and pressing RB instead of L3)

Thats strange, all the hideouts iv done so far is just press O/B to beat him down

or my quick and easy method. Grenade launcher wait at lights, boom the middle car and then the two blocker cars.

Make sure to pop any witnessed and its a nice tidy job. Well maybe not tidy but definitely quick

I've played both and they are totally different games, Wolfenstein was great, the best in it's class for quite some time but it will not last you that long.

Watch dogs would last you a while longer, it really comes down to which you like most open world sand box or first person shooter. Or just do what I did get wolfenstein and trade it in against watchdogs when finished.
