Ubisoft ha reso noti i requisiti di sistema previsti per la versione PC di Watch Dogs 2. La casa francese vuole rimediare agli errori passati (il lancio del primo Watch_Dogs è stato un disastro) e per questo promette l'implementazione di feature esclusive abbinate al massimo supporto proprio per la piattaforma PC.
Si parte dall'implementazione di un pacchetto Texture Ultra-quality, passando per le opzioni aggiuntive (dettagli, sistemi di filtraggio, FOV, Pixel Density, Sharpness tutti modificabili), il supporto 4K, multi-monitor, FPS uncapped, per arrivare alla piena compatibilità con le configurazioni SLI e Crossfire.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES
General
4K support
Stuttering/lag framerate optimization – We employed a fix that makes all controls much more responsive and less framerate-related. We’ve optimized resource creation, GPU VRAM upload and required VRAM for the game.
No FPS cap
Full SLI/Crossfire support at launch
Multiple save file support – This feature allows players to have up to three auto save slots for three separate playthroughs.
Multi-monitor support with borderless mode and advanced settings that allow for customized placement of menu and HUD.
Headlight Shadows – Support for additional shadows from car headlights
Extra Details Options – Increases the level of detail for all objects in the game, and adds more details to objects in the distance.
Improved Graphics Options
FOV sliders
Pixel Density sliders
Sharpness sliders
Ultra Textures pack available at launch
Anti-aliasing options:
TXAA
MSAA
Post Processing Anti-Aliasing options SMAA and FXAA
Improved Keyboard/Mouse controls
Full adaptation with mouse and keyboard
We’re using raw mouse input to reduce latency and use the Windows hardware cursor throughout the game without any additional signal filtering to smooth or accelerate mouse movement by default
Advanced keyboard support – Keyboard hotkeys for every menu and app for faster access. Additionally, all hotkeys can be remapped.
Mouse-centric UI – Any UI screen, menus or smartphone app supports full mouse interaction, so the player can finish any UI task with the mouse only. Everything is clickable and has appropriate button states.
Toggle/Hold modes for different controls (aim, sprint, walk, inventory, etc.)
Driving
Driving has been adapted to suit the keyboard controls, with adjustable steering sensitivity. Same goes for driving camera sensitivity and auto-centering camera behavior
Gamepad support
On-the-fly switching between mouse and keyboard to gamepad, without any additional options, UI will just switch to gamepad mode
Supported gamepads: Xbox One controller, PlayStation 4 DualShock controller
Watch_Dogs 2 uscirà su PC il prossimo 29 novembre (circa due settimane dopo il lancio delle versioni per console).
