For a long while, I thought that it was actually July. It’s not. My better half’s birthday is in July, and I was busy planning a bit of a celebration for it…for this weekend. Thankfully, I’ve come to my senses, so I won’t be spending the next month on the couch. Hooray for me!

      Yeah but the good news is, the mod community found a file in the Watch Dogs code (tiny rar file), that basically had all the E3 2012 bells and whistles in it. A mod is already out that’s unlocked some rather brilliant upgrades.

      http://www.pcgamer.com/2014/06/16/watch-dogs-mod-aims-to-recreate-e3-2012-visual-effects-improve-performance/

      Here’s a bit more on the actual files he used:

      http://www.pcworld.com/article/2363556/watch-dogs-on-pc-includes-files-to-make-it-prettier-theyre-just-hidden.html

      No, this should REALLY concern console owners. PC Gamer’s at least have the ability to fix developer fuckups or shortcomings. Consoles aren’t blessed with easy access in that regard, and may in fact risk being banned for modded game files.

      This isn’t a rub your nose in it response, this is really a wake up call to people. Pay attention to what’s happening here. You all hate microtranscations, well, that started with the removal of dedicated/local server options, and mapmaking/mod tool removal. What’s down the future path where developers are purposefully gimping games?
