I'm more of a statue guy myself but I admit that it's a little strange that those 2 editions weren't the other way around with the figurine replacing the cap/mask and those joining the artbook and everything with the Dedsec.
Like the figurine though they can both be bought separately too:
Aiden Pearce Cap
Aiden Pearce Scarf
These 2 should be the same as what comes with the Vigilante edition and are bought from the Ubi Workshop.
Means spending evening more ofc, unless you cancelled your dedsec and went with the Uplay Exclusive or Digital Deluxe instead, but at least they can still be bought outside of the Vigilante should you ever want them

Hi Ubi Workshop,
I'm a great fan of several Ubisoft franchises and a happy owner of a part of Ubisoft (Yay for stock markets
). My question is really simple, I'm wanting to buy the Dedsec edition, but on the other hand I love the Cap and Mask that are included in the Vigilante edition. My question is fairly easy: "Will the cap and mask be available for purchase on the Ubisoft Workshop?"
Please let me know asap
A big fan

Hello There,
Thank you for contacting us!
Our Design and Production team are currently working on the Watch Dogs collection however the final line of products is still not official so unfortunately I can’t tell at this point of time if the Cap and Mask will be available on Ubiworkshop.
Note that if we make the cap and/or mask it will not be the same products as the ones that are included in the Dedsec edition.
Thank you and have a great day!

Are you sure that the linked items are the same? I just want it all, I think that the most expensive edition MUST have all the spoils, If the cap and mask are the same I'll probable order them both. I'll also order a new GPU (or set of GPU's I'm still debating that one)

This reply of theirs doesn't make sense.
1. There already is a cap and mask available for purchase/pre-order on Ubi Workshop, as linked above. What are they talking about? oO
2. Of course the cap and mask won't be the same as the ones that are included in the Dedsec edition because there is no cap and mask included in the Dedsec edition to start with. Only the Vigilante.

Not 100% sure but since they're both from Ubisoft I'd be surprised if the cap and mask they're selling on the workshop site is a different version than the ones included in the vigilante edition. I'm pretty sure that the figurine I bought is the same one that comes with the Dedsec edition too but you guys will be able to confirm that next month. Wouldn't make sense to me for them to produce 2 different caps and masks unless they had different styles and colour variations like the AC hoodies they sell but I may be wrong.
The exact same statues that came with the
Freedom edition of AC3 and the
Black Chest edition of AC4 can be bought on the Ubi store too so it seems quite common for them to offer collectors edition contents as standalone products to be bought separetly, outside of their editions.
If you wanna be 100% sure it might be best to wait until there are some unboxing vids or pictures of both so you can put them side by side and compare to see if they are infact the same or not

I copy pasted those things from an email from before the first release date, but i think she meant the vigilante edition. I have ordered the cap, mask and hoodie yesterday. I'm eagerly awaiting their arrival. I'm looking forward to playing watchdogs in my new outfit

My watchdogs swag is en route \o/ Tthe cap was temporary out of stock, hence the delay in postage
The delay was actually just one day so that's damn good service in my book

aye it does, and nps!
I came across these wallpaper sized images of the different Watch Dogs outfit packs earlier btw, thought you guys might appreciate em.
Think I've labeled them all correctly:
White Hat Pack (White Hat Hacker Outfit)
The Untouchables Pack (1920s Chicago Outfit)
Signature Shot Pack (Black Viceroys Outfit)
DedSec Shadow Pack (DedSec Outfit)
Cyberpunk Pack (Cyberpunk Skin)
Club Justice Pack (Chicago South Club Skin)
Blume Agent Pack (Blume Outfit)
mmm dat mobster outfit. Definitely gonna be rockin' that one methinks, though some of the others are rather sweet as well.
I know my Ubi Store pre-order comes with all of these, except for maybe the White Hat pack which I'm not so sure about. There's a small picture of it on the page (on the far right):
but reading the description under those it looks like this may be a mistake and that the picture should be of the Chicaco South Club outfit instead. Plus it's not listed
here. So yeah, Ubi store pre-orders (for the Uplay Steelbook Edition, Digital Deluxe & DedSec Edition) look to come with all of these except for maybe the White Hat Hacker outfit. I may e-mail them about the latter just to see.

Very nice indeed!
I've been toying with the idea of upgrading my card as well but I dunno... If I'm able to I'd like to fully upgrade on PC this year and get a new machine. If I'm going to be doing that it may be best if I just wait, plus I'd be buying a custom build rather than attempting to build it myself so I wouldn't really be able to transfer a card I bought now into said new machine later.
I don't expect my current card to be able to run it maxed out or even near (HD 6970) but I'm hoping it'll still run and look decent enough. Will soon find out...

My cpu is not the bottleneck atm, and even if it were I can still put in an i7, I currently have an i5-2500K and its not yet over clocked. I always build my own machine it saves me a lot of money, which means I just get more PC for the budget that I have
If you want any help lemme know I'll be happy to help you out

Will keep that in mind, tis much appreciated
Got an i7 930 in this with 6GB RAM and the 6970 so it's not like this thing is on its last legs already, still some life left in it. Will hold out a while longer and just do a full upgrade when the time is right and I have the money spare to do it with.
(Also e-mailed Ubi support to see if my Uplay Exclusive edition comes with the White Hat pack or not, although the site decided to display their contact form in French even though I was on their UK site. Whether I receive a reply in English or not is anyones guess lol.)

Shared this on IRC last night but since I posted some of my inFamous: Second Son screenshots above:

Not much I guess but this made my day yesterday. Have been very happy with the results I've gotten from screenshots I've taken but there's some tough competition out there for sure, it's quite amazing seeing what other people have managed to capture as well. Some
really incredible shots. The amount of attention inFamous has been getting with its photo mode I'd be surprised now if other developers don't take on, and I really hope they do as I said earlier. Not only does it add another layer to the game to get more play out of it and appreciate such attention to detail, but it's basically free advertising for them too. win win. I'd love a photo mode for Watch Dogs...

New Watch Dogs stuff released 15mins ago btw. Lots of previews all over the net so they're kinda hard to miss. Here's a few vids though!
Going to watch now

Quite impressed with the Watch Dogs multiplayer btw (new 9min gameplay vid above). Wasn't really interested in it to start with tbh but watching that kinda swung me around. The 3rd mode (decryption) looks rather fun, basically CTF when you get down to it but still looks pretty good to me. Will give that a try at some points methinks!, mebbe a few of us could do so together?

So I'm a bit confused. Watch Dogs is an UbiSoft game and is using Uplay yet you can get a copy of Watch Dogs on Steam. How exactly does this work exactly?
Walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone

My
assumption is that it'll be similar to how they release their Assassin's Creed games.
- If you buy a physical copy of the game on PC it registers to Uplay.
- Buying a digital copy on steam uses steam (obviously) but goes through Uplay on top of that.
- Other digital stores (GMG etc) sell digital versions too but like a physical copy they register to Uplay and not Steam.
So it doesn't really matter where you buy it from they'll all use Uplay I think, and make use of the Uplay
actions & rewards and what not. It does annoy me. I still prefer to buy physical copies of my games but I also like it when they register to steam as well. Just nice having as many games as possible all under one roof. If the games are still going to require uplay to play anyway and have people using their service I don't see why they can't just issue steam keys with the physical copies too.

Some of you may be aware of the big 1.7 update which hit PS4 earlier today, which (alongside a ton of other features like the ability to export screenshots & video via USB), added a sweet new app called SHAREfactory. A video editor for the PS4 which lets you edit your captured gameplay clips, add transitions, effects, music, commentary etc.
I've only ever done a tiny bit of video editing before and that was many years ago but I had a play about with the app earlier today and thought I'd share:
Nothing too flash and the ending didn't seem to render as smooth as it looked on the console itself (with the music cut off) but it's a damn good app. Pretty impressed with it tbh.
I'll probably still stick to screenshot taking & sharing more than videos but if I do anymore (either for inFamous again or for other games) I'll be sure to post em up.
Comments welcome btw
