Watch Dogs multiplayer mode will have element of invasion

The multiplayer component of Watch Dogs will have an element of player invasion, though its overall extent and direction has yet to be described by Ubisoft. Dominic Guay, Senior Producer at Ubisoft Montreal, insisted that the game can be played "completely offline if you want." (Expect to hear that protection phrase often in the wake of SimCity.)

In multiplayer, Watch Dogs will use the near-future version of Chicago just as it is in single-player. "We are not making any compromises in terms of dynamism or interactivity," Guay said at a San Francisco press event earlier this week. Connecting with other players will be seamless in the developer's attempt "to start breaching the wall in action-adventure between single- and multiplayer."

For all u guys who wondered if Watch Dogs can be played 100% without having to go online--yes, it can be played fully without online, thanks to this interview.

EDIT: Plus if u do go online, u can do cool stuff using your own actual cell-phone (in real life) pertaining to the game.

YEah it seems like this game is made for online, it will improve it so much. Definitely will be online for me. Seems like turning off online in this is turning off Online in Demons/Dark souls

I'm interested in the idea and glad you can play without any interuptions. Interested in seeing what the gameplay would be like.

I_LOVE_MYSELF3994d ago

I am getting more and more excited for this game. I hope it delivers.

Donnieboi3994d ago

Lol it's a bet. See u online this fall.

trenso13994d ago

Good to know I can play it offline, I'll just do the story first then go online and see what happens so excited for this game

bluetoto3993d ago

Hanzala from eXputer: "With Ubisoft's practices becoming increasingly anti-consumer lately, the destruction of The Sands of Time Remake looks almost inevitable."

Hey Ubi, here's a gun, don't shoot yourself in the foot.

*Ubi takes gun, aims at foot, empties clip*

At this point, only dummies have any hope left for Ubi-junk games.

Every industry has these issues

Some companies I’ve worked for were great and some were toxic as hell (UPS when I was a teenager was extremely toxic and I have heard it still is) It all starts at the top. They either hold people accountable , set standards and treat people with respect or the crap rolls downhill.
