So...Dark Souls except you don't know you've been invaded.

But with the option to turn that off.

I'm having trouble finding the quote that stated it's an option.

It's probably better to go by the interview in the last video I posted.

Invade other players' world often and risk having them invade yours, or don't.

Though I want this game the fact that they never show any activities outside of the missions makes me worry it will be boring. Kind of like GTA 4 where the story and missions were good but there wasn't a whole lot to do when just free roaming. I hope I am wrong.

very disappointing. It was one of my preorder titles. Im sure others also

Some people are already speculating that GTAV is the cause of this but im told that the development cycle of this game has been extremely shakey with large personnel turnover

I'm ok with it as I had a vacation lined up after it and this now gives me some extra free cash

Guess it's PSN titles for the time being

That's so messed up. Only weeks till launch and this pops up? Now I'll either have to move the pre-order to something else or just cancel and wait till spring. All in all, extremely disappointing. Actually, I'm thinking that has a little less to do with "polish" as they are saying and more to do with Assassin's Creed 4 launching the same day. UbiSoft didn't want one handicapping the other one and since AC is the more "proven" franchise, they figured delaying WatchDogs wouldn't be a big deal.

The news makes me a little sad. I took a week off work for the game. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to settle for the PS4 and its lauch titles to fill the void. I just hope WD isn't released close to Bayonetta 2, Bravely Default, or inFamous: Second Son.

my brother preordered this with his PS4 and now he is devastated that he has to wait until spring. Such a great looking game I was excited for it and I havent even decided to get a next-gen system.

Is that Tom Clancy game still coming out on release? Can't remember what it's called. The one in NY?

The Division? No, it's not a launch title. Late 2014, maybe early 2015 I'd guess.

Same. I preordered the PS4 Watch Dogs bundle months ago.
The game looks sick!!

"For those of you who pre-order the Watch Dogs PlayStation 4 bundle—don’t worry—you will still be getting your Playstation 4 (without Watch Dogs) based on your current delivery estimate."

"The Crew" is also delayed.
Gotta wait until next year to join the "neo-geo.com Crew".

Glad their holding back so the game can be made better. I'd rather have them take their time then rush it out for the launches of the new consoles. I sat in on one of the pre-recorded demos they had at New York Comic Con. Funny to see how they had to have it in a closed booth considering how they've already shown off 15 minutes of pure gameplay already and what they had to show was just more of it. Of course they couldn't say which system the game was running on in the trailer but it still looked pretty good, I like that you can craft shit like IED's and other booby traps on top of hacking into stuff.

Also got to see a demo of the new South Park game. They really did make it play a lot like Earthbound where you can see the characters on the screen and you can either run right up to them and start a battle or use stuff in the environment to take them out without getting into a battle.

Just got an email from the retailer over the weekend.

My entire PS4 Watch Dogs bundle was cancelled and refunded.

I called them, and complained.
I told them, the system is still supposed to ship, even though Watch Dogs was delayed.
How am I going to get a PS4 now?
It is sold out everywhere.

They said, "we are sorry", and we'll mail you a $25 gift card.

Just got an email this morning.

"We are working on a solution that will ensure you receive the video game console you pre-ordered. You will receive an email tomorrow with further directions on how to confirm your order. We are committed to shipping your game console by the date on your original order.

Additionally, we are emailing you a $100 eGiftCard for you inconvenience."

Wow. They cancelled my PS4 bundle and refunded me. They sent me $25 gift card. Now they are giving me a chance to pre-order the console again (without the game).
On top of that, they are sending me another $100.

That's CUSTOMER SERVICE!!

That sounds like really crappy customer service to me. You, presumably, paid for the entire bundle and now they cancel the preorder because the game isn't coming out?

It sounds to me like they "bumped you out of line" rather than trying to help/resolve the situation.

This was one of the few launch games that I was interested in for the PS4.

Anyone know if any of the games will be available early for pickup? Or are they holding them all back till console launch day?

11/05
Call of Duty: Ghosts

11/12
Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag
Battlefield 4
FIFA 14
Just Dance 2014
Madden NFL 25

System comes out the 15th, I believe. These are the games that are coming out before then. That list is from GameFAQs, BTW...so, take it with a grain of salt.
