A New Watch Dogs Mod Makes It Look As Good As The E3 2012 Demo

Back to before.

Remember the Watch Dogs E3 2012 demo? The one that actually looked great, and looked like the first indication of what the next generation of home consoles will be like (bear in mind, this was before the PS4 or Xbox One had yet been unveiled). Watch Dogs back then promised limitless possibilities with regards to its gameplay, and to its graphics, which, of course, looked stunning.

Subsequently, Watch Dogs suffered downgrades- depending upon who you talk to, it either suffered one or several, but it suffered them nonetheless. The final release was still a good game, but nothing like the initial promise (and this was best reflected in the game’s graphics). So now, this new mod that promises to make at least the PC version of the game look like the debut trailer should find some popularity.

Created by TheWorse, here is all the stuff this mod does:

  • Changes to the default fog values
  • Enabled bokeh DOF for the main cameras
  • Stuttering Improvements
  • E3 2012 Bloom
  • Performance Improvements
  • Enabled Headlight Shadows
  • LoD Changes
  • Reflection changes
  • Added 3 new cameras to the game(closer, normal, further)
  • Rain changes(High quality rain drops, properly reacting to light, etc)
  • LensFlares(WIP)
  • Lighting changes(TESTING AND WIP)
  • Civilians density changes

(WIP indicates work in progress, and therefore, incomplete features)

If you want the mod for yourself, make sure to download it here.
