Anyone else think the hacking is a bit Gimmicky?

And it seems like the average person on the street makes 20-40k

Graphical issues aside, this shyt is fukking dope so far, mane. Maybe its because I'm a whore for shyt like reading the books in Skyrim and getting all the info you can. BUt being able to see inside these NPC's personal lives and impact it sometimes is just beyond fukking cool to me. The movement in this game is very fluid as well. I'm enjoying it. Not gonna play too much more before I get my hands on that retail, though. But damn good game so far. I'm intrigued to say the least.

How interactive is the city and buildings? Is it a dead city like assassins creed?

Nah, I wouldn't say so, because literally every person you can find a bit of info on. Its weird in a way, but everyone is pretty much more or less interactive it seems like. I'm curious to see how far future powers I unlock will take it, but there are a lot of people who you can hack and what not and find info on, figure out some shady shyt they're into, or straight up get money from their account via ATM. There's a good amount of buildings I"ve been able to run into/through just while fukking around. There's CONSTANTLY, and I do mean CONSTANTLY, random events going on that you can hop onto. Just did one of those weird VR coin chase things. I'm digging this game, breh. The shooting feels goddamn great as well, if you ask me. I'm honestly surprised at how tight the gunplay feels. Game isn't reinventing the wheel, but it is throwing some fukking shiny ass 28s on the bytch.

And Imma need a song list soon enough because I am moderately impressed by some of these tracks. Bun B came on on some shyt I aint heard before, and I'm vibing. This game....aint no fukkin joke. Get over the visuals. I game on PC because I'm a graphics whore, but I play shyt like Chivalry and Rogue Legacy more than anything else because I love goddamn great gameplay. If this shyt has intrigued you or gotten you kinda excited, I think you'll like it. I can't wait to fukk around with online modes and what not. Asian dude in the game seems like a bad motherfukker, too. I think he's gonna be an interesting one.

:ehh: After playing a little while longer the game is starting to warm up to me. Visuals look better during different times of day but you kind of get over it after a while.It's nothing special imo.

One thing is the time of day and weather changes dynamically so it looks nice transitioning. I took a few screens. This is on PC @ 1080P/high/mixed settings. I'm still disappointed at the performance(I'm talking drops to the 20's while driving) which reminded me of GTA V's performance. In doors the framerate can go up to the 40-60s. It's playable though. This is on a AMD FX4100 overclocked @ 4.4GHZ, 8GB DDR3 RAM and a 2GB 7870.

I haven't really gotten into the main story missions, I just was getting a feel of the driving and city. City feels kind of like GTA V's city in terms of "aliveness". You got a bunch of random spanish speaking cats, dudes on the street rapping and other mundane shyt going on with the civs. I don't have many weapons so I can't comment on the gunplay but I can tell you right off the bat that it's smoother than GTA V's that's for sure in terms of aiming. If the missions are good and things get better the game may actually be solid :manny:

the game feels great. You can hack your way through the missions, go all out or be sneaky. shyt is crazy.

having control of the L train :scusthov: :ahh:

the only gripe i have for the moment is the driving. shyt is clunky as fukk but i'm getting used to it.
the character models are a bit outdated but the graphics are great

The game looks good but the graphics aren't next gen more like on par with titanfall?. But after a few hours you don't even notice anymore, infamous does looks better. Voice acting, character animations, and soundtrack is good. Im loving the gameplay it's alot of info to take in at first, but the skill tree is simple and understandable, and tons of hacks to use to your advantage. Everyone has a profile and the interactions between the ai have been good, some bish was tossing a nikka clothes out the window on sum :camby:. As for the vehichles they all have a diffrent weight and feel to them.

Gameplay depends on how you approach every encounter. Go in guns blazing, kill everybody and avoid the cops. Hack your way through cameras which turns into puzzles on how to distract your enemy, hack their phones, turn off the lights, or lure them towards explosions. Or go stealth, avoid enemies with takedowns and become a super ninja. So far the gamplay has been great and plenty of side missions.
