Anyone tried their hand at the Digital Trips yet? Doing the Alone one right now, and man does it get tricky near the end.

Yeah, towards the end I just ran straight for the target while spamming EMP Belt ASAP. The other ones are a piece of cake compared to that one.

They skipped out on a lot of thing that could make the game better, it's just the simple fact that underneath the added hacking features, it's just your standard sandbox game little extra content. You could go and rock a mission stealth style, but why bother when you get more xp for just whipping out a gun and going for a headshot on everybody.

For the whole moral/karma thing, why is constantly hacking people's bank accounts not factored in? I remember one specifically where a guy was tagged as just filing for bankruptcy, and I proceed to pull $800 out of his account.

800? I had a guy that was filing for bankruptcy that I stole 14000 from. Another woman was a single mother who I stole 8000 from.

How the hell do you do not the pizza guy mission?


It's almost impossible to get out of sight of the helicopter (even if i kill everyone the Helicopter always finds me)


(Sadly i don't have the Helicopter hacking skill)

Heli goes away, at least if you stay at the yard and kill everyone. As for trying to out run it?...yeah wait for the part where you infiltrate the jail. Getting that hack skill makes it a lot easier but you need to find structures that you can get under, aka you need to be in the city so you can get under the tram rails, or duck into an alley and then hit F to hide in the car.


Also morale system is pointless, I don't understand it. Plus wtf is up with the fact you can basically drive down an entire city of people, killing them all with your car and not a single cop or person gives a fuck but stop a crime in progress and the assailant shoots at you and suddenly every copy is after YOUR ass.

One of the youtubers I follow is doing a LP of this and he's AWFUL at the driving. Are the controls shitty or is he just terrible?

Driving is terrible if you are not using gamepad, i've gotten used to it, but each car is a new experience because some handle differently then you except. Some muscle cars have really tight steering while some just average cars will spin out of control if you even dare turn the wheel.

Another thing is that you can drive like an idiot, hitting other cars in the way, crashing into traffic light poles etc, and even if there is a police near by they don't seem to care lol

wondered how long before someone did this

[Krazy]

I made a video too, but it's family friendly.

The SUVs are the worst. Police chasing me, I ducked into one of those to hide. They spotted me, so I hit it. And by it, I mean every car on the road, the median, light poles, random pedestrians, you name it.

Haha, and the fucking Mini Coopers too, you take a turn and just skid into everyone on the sidewalk.

Laughed so hard at this.

I only use motorcycles. If I need to take a car out I do it via hacking, any other vehicle is just not worth the hassle compared to how amazing motorcycles are.

I have not rode many of the bikes, is it like GTA where a nudge will toss you off the bike and kill you? Or do you hang on more?

[Salodin]

No, you're a glass cannon. But you handle so well that you can dodge and weave very well if you aren't terrible.

As far as death goes, I did a wheelie off a hacked bridge going top speed, flew at an angle, hit a ledge and flew down a story to pavement near a river. Didn't die, soooooo lol.

[Krandor]

Unless it's a convoy mission, Bikes only.

[Salodin]

Fuck that still bike. Cause a traffic jam and lay some IED traps. Assault rifle and focus finish the rest.

[Uzor]

bikes > everything else. All day err' day.

I like setting up across a bridge, bring the bridge up and start shooting with my .50 cal, making sure to take out the target vehicle's wheels to flush him out if it's one of those "Oh you gotta beatz dis guy up, but you can murderz all his friends ^_^" missions.

I love the gang hideouts and stealthing in..but I find it stupid that you can literally go in guns blazing if you have the disable reinforcements perk..or even if you don't because w/e...but you HAVE to beat up the gang leader. Murder EVERYONE but that one guy needs a shattered jaw to teach him a lesson!

[Salodin]

Yeah I hate those Take Down objectives when you consider you never see those people again any ways. One of the many small details that needs to be worked on for WD2.

With the way the game played out and ended though, I'm out of this franchise if Ubisoft turns the plot into another never ending Assassin's Creed. I was already having nightmares about hacking ctOS boxes for increased city objectives...it was way too similar to Assassin's Creed for me.

[Chrius]

I get the idea for the hideouts, you need to knock them down so they can tell the rest of their crew that they aren't safe. The whole gang isn't 8 people hanging out in a parking garage.

Going to prison to let that dude know he isn't safe anywhere

Yeah, I mean I get it where it's like "Yo I got through all your bros and bitch slapped you, remember me fucker" type thing...except you totally murdered all of his bros in a gun fight, blowing them up with IEDs and blasting them with full auto weapons and .50 cals, then turn around and smack this guy in the face with a night stick. "Remember I can beat you up...also remember I can kill 20 of your friends in a giant firefight and the cops won't EVER FUCKING COME TO HELP".

it depends on how you play it I guess, makes sense if you stealth, but not as much if you ramp into the base driving a pickup truck, hop out and toss frag grenades in every direction (though it's fun as hell to do this).

Also for reputation, has anyone tanked it to max red? Does it do anything at Max red or blue?? Like do citizens not squeal on you for shooting guns/stealing cars if you max it to positive?
