We have made minor adjustments to how the search bar works on ResetEra. You can read about the changes here.
The frame pacing seems really off. It feels like it is struggling a lot.
And like I posted before, the brightness is constantly flickering as you walk around on the daytime. It is even worse with HDR enabled.
It is so bad that I'm almost positive Ubi will patch it.
Seems like they really rushed this thing out for launch
Your photos look great! Saw them in the thread.
I agree that the game absolutely shines at night. It just looks so much like real London. They've done a great job. And, like real London, it looks super flat and grey in the daytime 😅
keep moving around a bit & trying (& make sure you get the prompt!). had at least 2 photo mssions that i had to keep retrying multiple times. pain in the ass...
Hey I'm on series X and shit was working okish (apart from that issue with the photograph) but I've come back to the game this morning and I've lost most of my progress from last night. Not all of it but a huge amount. I've tried looking the issue up and I just keep seeing stuff about the PC.
Anyone else had this happen on X?

Yes, the subreddit is flooded with people claiming to have progression issues on Xbox Series X. No official word from Ubisoft yet. I also lost about five hours of progress and have decided to stop playing until it's addressed. Not worth the hassle otherwise.
Yep same thing happened to me today on Series X, lost about 6 hours progress. Incrediby frustrating.
Classic Ubisoft.
Think I'm going to do the same. Hopefully a patch comes through soon.
Getting more into this, but it's still such a weird game. I'm finding the most fun is just doing lots of recruitment missions which are cool little stealth missions across all these restricted area bases. They're taking me to a lot of places I haven't gone to the in the story yet.
Since the game has terrible stat tracking, are there a certain finite # of these recruitment missions? Or is some kind of procedural generation thing where it picks a restricted area at random and assigns a task there? There's dialogue accompanying them so it doesn't seem random, but it's like after you finish the story can you just keep playing for months doing new recruitment missions?
Also I wish the map had some sort of completion stats that tracked the notes/audio logs/relics at each location. I'm going out of my way to 100% every location but the only way I can tell I'm done is just looking at the map zoomed in and make sure there's no more icons also no checkbox or anything.

I find it the opposite. Really easy to take great Valhalla screenshots, but at least on PC with RTX, extremely hard to take a decent photo in photomode. I'm jealous of console players for Legion.
Stopped playing Legion for the time being, after the game lost hours of progress three times. Apparently this is a widespread issue. I literally lost an entire night's worth of progress the last time, and that was it for me.
Switched to AC Valhalla for now.

Press down on Dpad when over the Watch Dogs icon on home screen.
Press right on DPAD for the "..." button
Click PS5| FULL | Watch Dogs Legion
Download.
You can also switch between versions once installed. Go to Watch Dogs icon, press the options button, click Game Version.
but I deleted the PS5 version, there's a save uploader in game to transfer save.
Weird, I don't seem to get the option, it wants me to pay again. Oh well, I'd already beaten it so it's no big deal. Thanks.
OK just started this and getting random, frequent audio glitches in the menu and starting area. The noises sound like popping bursts of static. They aren't part of the soundtrack, they happen in game and on menus and title screen.
Anyone else had this problem? God I hope it's not my console.
Made some videos of the audio glitch:

It's a known bug that they're looking into, according to the Ubi support forums.
thanks for the info. i guess i won't quit out of the game anytime soon. i hope it doesn't crash or anything.
Came here to ask about why my progress was missing. Looks like many are facing the sams issue. Is this bug exclusive to next gen? I am playing on Series S btw.
i'm so annoyed. mainly because i'm really enjoying the game. i just don't want to have to replay the last few hours every time. BLAH!
I'm really struggling to care about this game, i just cannot get into it, so I'm trading it in.
Where did it go wrong, I liked the first game and I love the second game.

Just happened to me as well. Like 3 missions and 2 recruitments from this morning lost.
I have no desire to replay them either. Guess I'm done with this for a while.
The problem is I keep having massive audio issues when I suspend the game. How does something like this get into the wild.
I've uninstalled the Ubisoft Connect thing and now make sure to save after each mission. Then it all doesn't get stuck in the menu. It's not the best workaround but one I can live with for now.
Oh holy fuck the PS5 version has Adaptive Trigger features. I just pulled out the nail gun for the first time and it resists then clicks when you shoot. So damn satisfying.
I really hope more devs use this. I wish Legion used it for driving too.
Going to test other guns to see if they feel different.

Hello all. I understand that the ps4 version of the game allows you to upgrade for free to a digital version of the ps5, but is this locked until 11/24? I had noticed the physical copies for the game on PS5 all have a November 24th release date. For a person wanting to play now on PS5 is there any other difference or advantage between the digital and physical copies?
Is that on PS5?
If so, I haven't played much watch dogs on it, but I get the same kind of random static like in the first video when playing Demon's Souls.
It only happens randomly like once every 2-3 hours, but it's actually a bit louder than what you are getting.
I really hope it's a software and not a hardware issue
I'm getting the exact same on the Series X version and saw others reporting the same on the subreddit. Not your console, thankfully.
Anyone playing Legion on Stadia? "Bought" the trial/controller/chromecast bundle that Wario64 was talking about the other day and noticed WD:L was part of Stadia's current lineup.
I'm normally not a cloud gaming person but thought it might be an interesting way to try out the full game without having to pay full price (oooor at least not until its Black Friday markdowns begin).

Just found it for $30 at Bestbuy, and with GCU and a reward is almost free. Guess I'll be joining soon.
Looks like Watch Dog Legion is now $29.99 at Best Buy. You'll see the price if you have an account, or just create one.
My review just went up on Progress Bar:

Watch Dogs Legion strives to be something different, with a unique take on the open-world genre.

I'm a few hours in and kinda enjoying it so far, but more just messing around in the open world than the actual campaign.
My biggest problem is that despite recruiting a drone expert, Spy, professional hitman, a protest leader and others, I've never felt any need to change from my construction worker I got at the start. If doing something like getting the tech points on the Buckingham palace roof meant I pretty much HAD to recruit a palace guard and make my way up there then that could be pretty cool. In reality though pretty much every situation I've come across so far can most easily be solved by using a combination of the spider-bot and cargo drone.

How much of the city is open from the beginning?
I'm kind of interested in exploring the city, but don't really care much for the story. I'm thinking I'll grab it when it drops to 20 or lower, but I can't be arsed if parts of the city are locked from the start.

Yea I bought, played, and finished it on Stadia.
It runs at 30fps in either 1080p or '4k' (whatever resolution the '4k' version actually runs at before being upscaled).
There is no Ray-Tracing, but its still a nice looking game.
I didnt have any hard crashes or lose any progress. Ever.
Lag was never an issue (that applies across the board to Stadia, but some people still ask, so I'll get that out of the way now)
There is however a weird memory leak somewhere, and after a couple hours of play the frame-rate will start to drop. When this happens I found that going into the Ubisoft Connect menu, letting it load (it can take a few seconds), then going back to the game, will recover the frame-rate.
So, despite being a bit wonky, its probably the most stable console version of the game out there :P
Hopefully the performance stuff gets sorted pretty soon, It sounds like there is a problem with the Ubisoft Connect end of things that needs addressing, as it also wasn't recording my gameplay stats correctly. The game is perfectly playable, but doesn't exactly present Stadia in the best light, so don't take it as representative as the Stadia experience in general.
Thank god is isn't just me losing hours of progress. Will put the game on hold until there's a fix
Yeah, I this is going back into my backlog until they fix the save issues. I lost hours of progression because their autosave system is fucked.
Hey, thanks for your reply! I'm absolutely willing to keep an open mind and give the Stadia version a fair shot in spite of the drawbacks you listed in your post. It definitely seems like a worthwhile experience, though, as long as some of the Ubisoft-centered glitches aren't anything gamebreaking. Thanks again.
