Ubisoft's Watch_dogs (PC and "Consoles")

[Kit]

Nobody has mentioned that it only takes 20gb of hard drive space?

That seems extremely low, right? Max Payne is 35gb and Rage is 25gb right and they are current gen. I assumed this would be an absolute beast of a game given the scope of the city.

Procedural asset creation?

Delayed until spring next year.

Really disappointed this has been delayed, was really looking forward to playing as a launch title but if it's not ready then fair enough. Did think it was always strange for Watch Dogs and AC4 to launch within weeks of each other and will be something to look forward to playing next spring. Will be interesting for all the people who ordered it as part of a bundle.

I wonder if that is a move because they are concerned about the ROI on the next gen versions or is it having problems?

Interesting, very late to be getting delayed but I don't mind since it's a busy time anyway and getting it in the new year means less drought. It's also ?50 (next gen) freed up. What to do...?

[Family Fry]

I think it's down to the genre being a bit too close to assassins creed, launching two major ip's that close together just doesn't make sense.
One will take sales from the other.

Didn't think of it that way, having ?50 to spend on something else

I'm sure this will in the end be a very good thing and will certainly be something to look forward to during the inevitable next gen new game drought.

Good news is that it eases my wallet slightly, this was one of the ones I really wanted.

Just waiting to hear what Shopto are going to do. WatchDogs is in my bundle with KZ and BF4. I'd happily swap WatchDogs for NFS or maybe FIFA.

Thing is; Spring next year puts it head to head with inFamous for PS4 owners.

Maybe the GTA heat was just to much for them

[EvilBoris]

There were rumors a while back that they were struggling to go into crunch for both Assassin's Creed and Watchdogs.

I guess as a new IP they have to be really careful that the finished product is of good enough quality, especially if they plan on a new one every 12 months.

Ah I just saw Spring.
