I turn the graphics down to low with all the games I buy.

It's about gameplay you guys...

[Benji]

For real, I don't get the thing about graphics. So long as it doesn't look like I'm playing games on a potato, why give a shit?

[King Ellis]

But 1440p and 178fps, you guys. :/

[Benji]

I can't even count that high :/

[apsham]

Ugh. Bug made me have to restart already.

Totally disagree. It's so much better when the game looks good. It won't kill a good game for me but it can put a borderline game over the top

[LUKIE]

I still think stuff like Wolfenstein on the lowest graphics settings looked fantastic. Had a couple of weird shader problems in parts of the game cause it was set so low, but outside of that I had no problems at all.

People choose to have graphics settings on low over high?

Yes, we are gaming hipsters.

[JasonM]

Well there's stuff like Battlefield, where on low graphics you don't have fluff like bloom and grass. So you aren't blinded/can see peoplemon in the tall grass

I'm enjoying hacking into the traffic lights for giggles.

...and now I'm loving profiling people and looking for potential crimes without having the full picture of what's going to happen. I'm like Jim Caviezel in Person Of Interest. Brilliant.

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS UPLAY SHIT! LET ME PLAY MY FUCKING GAME UBISOFT YOU FUCKTARDS!

[MalaCloudy Black]

Apparently you can redeem uPlay points and get special items or something. I have no idea. It's sort of Ubisoft's answer to EA's awful Origins thing, isn't it?

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

You can go into coffee shops and play CHESS PUZZLES! Classiest game ever.

[apsham]

UPlay had never, ever been an issue for me. Sign in once and it's done, it's really not a huge deal.

Either way.

- I've played all I can before work - the acceleration is absolutely way too fast in the cars, it feels unnatural driving them but I think I'm starting to get used to it.

- I like the cop system, but I'll be darned if they don't seem to know exactly where I'm hiding but they certainly do drive past the place. Non stop. Still better than then knowing instantly.

- Chicago feels amazing. Very detailed, easily the best part. The game looks amazing on the One I have to say.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Just taken a digital trip. Weird as. I also just hacked my way into someon'e bank account through the camera in their tablet. This game has some amazing stuff in it.

[Your Mom]

How is combat? Is it hard?

[MalaCloudy Black]

It looks about the same as a GTA game. I would think that if you didn't have any problems with, say, GTA 4 or 5, you wouldn't have any problems here either.

[thatblindgeye]

Yeah, I've never understood the hate for Uplay. If you have an account you just sign in and can get some small rewards with the points. It's never been anything more for me than some option on the main menu, but I don't know if it's any more intrusive for people who haven't signed up for it.
