You can find sauces all over that thread, the gaming media is trying to cover up the fact that these files were in the game.
The E3 2012 graphics were there the whole time. In the game's files.
You literally just have to change a few zeroes to ones and BAM! E3 2012 graphics.
Ubisoft INTENTIONALLY turned down the graphics on the PC version to make the console versions more appealing!

[quote]I think this conspiracy theory is a great example of how the /v/ hivemind is alive and well. I mean think about it. Some random modder posts some scary looking images and starts talking out his ass about how [insert game dev here] did something evil. /v/ eats it up, it spreads like wildfire, and no one even dares question the legitimacy of the claim for fear of being accused of shilling. Is /v/'s standard of evidence really THAT low ? I mean, come on. This is textbook paranoia.[/quote]Exactly my thoughts. /v/ is a HORRID shithole that should be purged from the internet, the rotten filth-hole that it is. Their opinions are based on an autistic hive-mind of lunacy, anti-sociability, and pure nonsense. The people who go there only go there because, one, they agree with at least one of the /v/-centric opinions (whether it's stupid or not), or two, they're basement-dwelling aspergerkings who cannot socially interact with the outside world, and thus attach to things like anime and anti-social beliefs like Nazism and homophobia. I disregard everything that comes from this hellhole. If I see proof of this Watch Dogs shit, I will accept it, but being called a shill for questioning the lack of evidence isn't going to make me believe shit.
