You can find sauces all over that thread, the gaming media is trying to cover up the fact that these files were in the game.
The E3 2012 graphics were there the whole time. In the game's files.
You literally just have to change a few zeroes to ones and BAM! E3 2012 graphics.
Ubisoft INTENTIONALLY turned down the graphics on the PC version to make the console versions more appealing!

Cool.

.. Of course they did. Watch Dogs runs like pants with no legs on PC, even without his little mod. VERY few people would be able to run it if they didn't. Only, maybe, the people who have rigs built for some hardcore 3D modelling or something ridiculous.

Edited by Friendlystu: 6/16/2014 9:25:23 PMSo how many Pegs have ubisoft been torn down now?
-
I never liked ubisoft after they began to milk what is now known as Ass Creed. I am glad they are getting flak for this and I hope they continue to get buried. Thats just wrong to intentionally make one version of the game worse to sell on another system. That customer deception and shady business. They'd rather make $$$ than sell quality games and care about gamers.

Ubisoft, EA, and Activsion are all a bunch of greedy terrible publishers.

Someone found this comment in the files

[quote]I think this conspiracy theory is a great example of how the /v/ hivemind is alive and well. I mean think about it. Some random modder posts some scary looking images and starts talking out his ass about how [insert game dev here] did something evil. /v/ eats it up, it spreads like wildfire, and no one even dares question the legitimacy of the claim for fear of being accused of shilling. Is /v/'s standard of evidence really THAT low ? I mean, come on. This is textbook paranoia.[/quote]Exactly my thoughts. /v/ is a HORRID shithole that should be purged from the internet, the rotten filth-hole that it is. Their opinions are based on an autistic hive-mind of lunacy, anti-sociability, and pure nonsense. The people who go there only go there because, one, they agree with at least one of the /v/-centric opinions (whether it's stupid or not), or two, they're basement-dwelling aspergerkings who cannot socially interact with the outside world, and thus attach to things like anime and anti-social beliefs like Nazism and homophobia. I disregard everything that comes from this hellhole. If I see proof of this Watch Dogs shit, I will accept it, but being called a shill for questioning the lack of evidence isn't going to make me believe shit.

I don't think you understand what's actually going on.

[url=http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=838538]Here's the GAF thread[/url] and the [url=http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=390114]Guru3D thread[/url] where the dude posted his mod. Some of the guys in the Guru3D thread are having issues with the mod, so a possible explanation is that Ubisoft couldn't do the proper testing and QA before their deadline and had to abandon the features. Either way, it's clear they shot themselves in the foot by hyping this as the first true next-gen experience.

Edited by Orion: 6/16/2014 9:20:38 PMSo is this a mod, editing .ini files or what?

-
I found one of your sauces.
-
Yeah, so that it would run on the Xbox One... Obviously.
-
Oh...ok.

Getting some lighting bugs with headlights while driving. Otherwise the mod works great.
-
I wonder what the actual reason for this is. Is it due to time constraints? Is it due to being shitty and putting money first? Is it to make it look not that different from the console version?

Looks like Lonepaul is chasing after the thread.

Video for you all.

Started a new topic: Watch Dogs E3 graphics are an option in the ini files(6 Replies))

I got it. Looks great now. Runs fine on just one 770. Now if only it the game wouldn't turn to shit when I use SLI. Or get in a vehicle ever.

It looks great on the Xbox One. What's the issue?
