Watchdogs new gameplay footage downgraded! | Forums

[Annoholics]

With the 2012 E3 trailer I could kind of understand it. It was years before the actual release and the game was far from finished. Recently however we had the gameplay demo with voice over of Colin Graham and it was explicitly said that this was footage from an alpha build on the PS4. So that means it was not on the PS4 Pro. That gameplay looked 10 times better then the footage that we see now appear on the Internet, which is often also from the PS4. I really wonder what is going on with Ubisoft. They made a point they would not downgrade anymore but this seems like the opposite. They said that they listen to our feedback and I wonder how they mist the feedback about being sick and tired of the downgrades.

I find it kinda funny that there are some people that STUDY every new and older video play of a game for any "downgrade", just so they can nicpic

I myself don't take the time studying every single frame shot of the videos..........as long as it plays with good graphics and good story, I don't care

I guess since AC Syndicate, Far Cry Primal, e.t.c down grades from Ubisoft has stopped. I have watched a couple of gameplay videos youtube, the game seems to retain the E3 2016 quality

Perhaps you are confusing with day-time cycle?


Here is some digital foundry analysis

Since e3 2016 reveal it was clear , that the game was not the wd1 e3 2012 quality.

But as the video says it is a clear upgrade over wd1.

And I see no downgrade between this footage and e3 2016 footage

I was about to post it, many thanks for share it!

I'm not seeing a downgrade because I have been watching gameplay footage, and that appears decent and consistent.

The original reveal trailer appeared to contain cinematic elements, and there was no statement confirming in-game capture, so I'm assuming some 'trailer-licence', there.

Other than that, it looked pretty solid, and I'd rather have responsiveness over ambitious graphical standards, particularly given the online segments.
