Watch Dogs Ultra System Requirements Released

[pr0n Inspector]

Holy shit the controls in this game are terribad. It's utterly unplayable with KB/M.

 

[INSTG8R]

It's running MUCH better on the Cat 14.6's. FPS is still "erratic" but much smoother and less "30 dips" not more like 40 especially while driving. I am using Ultra Textures. No new patches from Ubi yet but I can live with current performance now.

 

[Tintai]

Ahhh! Finally I got my WD. I'm installing right now I will post screens from ultra later.

Finally received my key for the deluxe edition after midnight last night, downloaded it on my laptop while I was asleep, this morning I tried it and it was taking forever just to load the opening movie, it wasn't until I used alt-tab to go back to the desktop and back to the game again that it finally loaded, have any of you guys had the same problem?

Yes this happen to me 3 times. I had to force close the game and than reopen it again.

Nope, never.

 

[Jeffredo]

Okay so I can run it, just not at high settings. I feel like I'll be back in the age where I ran L4D2 on ultra with my GT 220 1GB.

Are you using your FX-6300/GTX 660 machine? If so that's pretty depressing. Best hardware combo I can come up with is an FX-6300 @ 4.2 Ghz with a GTX 670 2GB. I'd hope to run it at "high" @ 1920x1200.

Thats why I'm mainly using my 360 controller. Game plays well with it. KB/M is a pain in the ass but I do use it during the major fire fights.


I lost 20 grand playing poker last night. I swear the deck is rigged! lol

I made back about 15 grand playing slots though.

Good thing making money is this game is about as easy as taking a shit.

[15th Warlock]

Nope, never.

This was the first time I ran it, seems I'm not the only one with the issue, nice to hear it's not widespread

Yes this happen to me 3 times. I had to force close the game and than reopen it again.

Will try it on my other rigs once I get back home, does it happen to you often?

Here is a better set of screenies to tell the difference between low to ultra graphic settings:

Low:

Medium:

Ultra:

I must be going blind because I don't see very much of a difference. What am I missing?

Now Uplay is cracking under it's own weight....

 

[TheMailMan78]

Now Uplay is cracking under it's own weight....

I don't get "Uplay". Install Steam to install Uplay to install a game sold on Steam to play through Steam and Uplay simultaneously. Really WTF is the point! Its like developers and publishers like to add steps just to run an .EXE.

I got an idea.....how about I buy the F#$KING game and click the .exe to play it? Two steps. Done. So many advances in technology via Moore's law yet software developers seem to be going the OPPOSITE way of Moore. Every 2 years it becomes twice as hard to start a program. Pretty soon Ill need a second computer to keep track of the steps just to play a single game on the first computer.........AND IT WILL BE A PORT!

 

[INSTG8R]

That is why I didn't buy it on Steam and went direct with Uplay. Same as I did with FC3 and SC Blacklist. I mean I love Steam and all but "Double DRM" is just stupid

All my steam to uplay games work fine with Uplay alone. Example is Farcry 3, I bought it on steam but I can run it on Uplay, its a Uplay game.

I stopped buying anything by Ubisoft when they used to have the stupid "Always Online" DRM back a few years ago. It hurt me because I love Spliter Cell games. Then they removed it and I got all happy......downloaded FarCry3 and had to install Uplay. Not again. Ill wait until they learn their lesson from it before I buy another Ubisoft game.

On topic does this game prefer i7 over i5? I have a feeling a lack of multi-threading might be biting people in the butt on this one. Am I wrong?

Yeah, I'd like to see some task manager action while the game is running.
