Low-cost Intel Gaming PC - Watch Dogs Update

Notice how the frame rate doesn't get much worse moving from low to high settings? That shows how badly this game is optimized. Even very high spec computers have more trouble with this game than they should considering it doesn't have very impressive visuals.

If it was properly optimized the low setting option would play a lot better.

Also putting the general frame rate issues aside, I think that appearance of lag is caused by loading in new models and textures in the open world. Again, even on a high spec computer this game has terrible pop in issues.

I'm not saying this should be a PC exclusive (console players deserve games too), but if it was developed properly for PC this game would be amazing. Instead I'm half way through the story and it's just not grabbing me. The visuals are average and the story is pretty boring, it doesn't make me want to drop what I'm doing to play, I just play it to kill time.

It looks like it would playable if the resolution was lowered a little, so I wouldn't say it was a complete failure.

Considering Ubisoft was recommending an i7 and said the minimum was a quad core (I think Core 2 Quad?) I'm impressed that it runs like it does on a lowly pentium, especially as even high end rigs are having issues.

lagggggg

probably a memory issue, i heard even for people with 8 gb of RAM this game is stuttering like hell

How shocking. A $hit port running like $hit. But really this looks and runs better than I was expecting out of this cheap PC.

Lol, runs like this on my 780's too. Ah Ubisoft, how you mock me...

seriously, gamespot? you are trying to show graphical fidelity of this game while driving recklessly in a car?! this will not allow the viewer to see the essence of the visual change from high settings!! you should have made the video of aiden walking the streets. maybe in the rain where textures pop more due to reflections and great bump mapping. you messed up, guys. i love you but u made a bad decision with this video.

Why will the video not play?

can i run this? i have the msi GP70 2PE Leopard

How did you guys record it? The recording software would also slow it down too.

Can i run this game?

Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 2.66GHZ

2 GB Ram

ATI HD 6570 2 GB ice Q

It tos demanding for my core2duo ,560ti pc :s

still looks and plays better than PS3/360

Somehow I really doubt it was low settings at first. Low looks bit different for me and my budget class Dell laptop runs it better on "low" then this Intel PC. But it cant handle medium and above, but this Intel PC looks like it runs it totally the same as "low" and quality looks like doesnt look better or worse too. But it was worth watching whole video b/c of the last song.

If not for new Game of Thrones episode and E3 show I'd see how it runs on my medium setup tonight, but too busy
