This Mod Transforms Watch Dogs 2

Something different. Thought i'd showcase a mod I found quite interesting which came outt just recently for Watch Dogs 2! Mod: www.nexusmods.com/watchdogs2/mods/82?tab=description

6:43 There was multiplayer in WD1 remember? Also imo, I feel like they didn't add the Focus ability because A: like you mentioned it's a bit cheesy when your just going for headshots, especially without a timer and B: lore wise, it wouldn't make sense since Marcus wasn't ex military but Aiden was.

[@TheJakson212]

Aiden wasn’t ex-military, he just grew up in a rough neighborhood. He was a thief who bought lessons in hand to hand and went out to the range. Dude legit just has good reflexes.

[@aircraftmen_]

He meant that in WD2 you can randomly meet people or you get a choice to hack them like that.

[@Knight_Antz]

What really needs to be added to this mod is a custom camera angle. Like in Watch Dogs 1 and Legion where the camera is over the shoulder and a little closer to the character. Watch Dogs 2 camera angle looks like he's too far away.

WD2 despite being a short had me so invested in free roaming that I wished Ubisoft made the online experience better for this game, Legions could've been better too cause the DLC should've been the main story but obviously with more story and missions.

@brkenppt2222 No shit. Im talking about actual content like fixer contracts, convoys, gang hidouts, and digital trips in watch dogs 1, or co-op missions, driver, optional side missions. like in watch dogs 2. Instead, in Legion, we have like 4 online only exclusive missions , or the same 5, 404 contracts, which is collect one thing or kill one dude, and that's it

[@skarano]

legion would need a whole total conversion

[@HeySlickThatsMe]

See you in few years (maybe) Truth is, I was originally working on a legion mod before starting WD2E but after I had a random bluescreen I kind of lost interest and later uninstalled the game as I wanted to try out xdefiant instead and needed space Although my WDL mod was nothing like either Living City or WD2E, both WD2 and WDL changed quite a lot of things fundamentally so bunch of stuff gets harder to do or feels impossible, WD2E already is pretty much made out of workarounds for it's script content, and I don't even know if the same logic would work for WDL as I never tried it The WDL mod I was working on also featured restored cut weapons, there were restored cut gadgets like nitro boost and it also included the multidrone from DLC, you could use any weapon on anybody, unfinished bouncer character archetype was restored, enemy loadouts were modified and that was pretty much it Truth is, no matter what you do with Legion the game will be boring

@@HeySlickThatsMe that's unfortunate to hear. Always wanted WD2 to be more brutal and the yo-yo takedowns are too slow sometimes.

[@PeninsulaCity2024]

I still might reinstall this game myself. But the only reason I uninstalled it and stuck to the PS4 version is because the vanilla game seems to keep crashing when in combat. Could never figure out why, its random.

[@HeySlickThatsMe]

​@@PeninsulaCity2024The game is broken on PC and will crash randomly when a gun is fired, it has something to do with the blood decals that appear when an enemy is shot WD2E removes these decals and fixes the crash, the mod was made by SlyCooperReloadCoded and it's also available standalone, small price to pay to fix a huge bug

the best part of the mod is that u can remove the permeant circle in the middle of your screen

[@sky.bermensen]

Focus mode could be improved by adding a cooldown and a button that activates it for 8-15 seconds (based on how many botnets you have)

[@HeySlickThatsMe]

There are no ways to control botnets with scripting and it would overall make no sense to bind it to botnets The only reason why there is no cooldown or anything like that is because there's no way to display it

Now I wonder if he can restore that one cutscene from "Watch Dogs 2 - Gameplay Walkthrough - E3 2016" at 10:02. In the game it's daytime, no music, no Wrench in person, etc... Funnily enough: The projector IS THERE, but since it's daytime you can't see it (I waited for the night before jumping, that's how I found out). And right after the mission ends you can see Marcus having "sitting in a car" animation like in the E3 trailer but it wasn't included in the final game for some reason.

[@HeySlickThatsMe]

The mission will be at night if you start it at night Yes the cutscene can be restored but Wrench is missing and when it ends, it keeps playing the same music that's in the demo outro and has a full black screen, on top of that it doesn't make sense in the context of final game Ubisoft just lazily ended the cutscene early instead of removing the entire part with Wrench, I'm not going to be restoring it because it would require changes in that section of the mission to make sense

[@goodcat132]

@@HeySlickThatsMe > The mission will be at night if you start it at night - Didn't know that! Maybe I was doing something wrong because after starting the mission it always sets to daytime (When we ride to the skyscraper with Wrench) > I'm not going to be restoring it because it would require changes in that section of the mission to make sense - Understandable but still kinda of sad about it. Guess I'll just play the E3 cutscene on the second monitor lol. The cutscene is just so hype man...

@@goodcat132 Maybe I'm wrong at time of day but I recall playing it at night at some point, but I'll see if I can make some changes to set the mission to night again I plan on restoring some unused dialogue in the mission since there is some that was made for the E3 demo but went completely unused

[@Eagleleadsmc]

I dont really like the focus mode for wd2. I think the reason they didnt add it from the first game is because it would make the game too unbalanced. You have so many hacks that adding focus would make the game too easy. Also theres no real way to unlock it. In 1, you upgraded it usijg skill points, but in 2 you dont have skill points, you have like tech points sort of, so how would you obtain it?

[@TheHiddenOne690]

Yeah I feel that

[@HeySlickThatsMe]

You can toggle the focus mode off in settings file, much like any other script added by the mod The primary reason why i didn't add any cooldown or anything like that is because there would be no way to display it on screen, although i could experiment with adding an optional feature where Focus will turn itself off after 5 seconds and then have another 5 second cooldown to activate it again with a prompt on the bottom of the screen "Focus Ready" as soon as it's available to use again (the same way i display car names)
