CCTV view isn't impossible. It is however quite complicated to create (somehow I made a solution in 30 secs for this ). For CCTV you could:
#1. Use the spectator game mode in 1.8
#2. Have a command block connected to an ultra quick redstone clock that ensures you don't move around the place and cheat and...
#3. You could use the /tp ~ ~ ~ [looking position X] [looking position Y] to make the player face different positions.
This is just an outline for the idea of CCTV but I've already found a problem: If you are planning to make thousands of cameras this will take forever to do and it will as a result severely lag the game. Hope this works though!
If you do need more help with redstone/commands then I would be happy to help you.
We will be posting proof of our concept in form of video and pictures soon! Trust us, we've been doing work... maybe xD
Lol dat mayby doe..\
Anyway I can already say after building millions of cameras in my survival world I was still having 95-112 fps so nope cameras are not laggy. For all those doubting the CCTV we've already made it and we are working on the concept video as we speak
The CCTV does just let you view things, it also zooms in, when you move forward. By hacking it with your profiler (smartphone), you get teleported in front of it constantly, so you can't move, but you can look around. And it can zoom, as I said before.

Actually, it's not constantly teleport you anymore.... We changed that because we found a better way to make it less laggy and that it will be easy to make copies of it... We'll make a video about how we made it with explanation of all of the mechanics really soon!
(I know I commented to Zev about that but I'm saying it for everyone... He knows we changed that... He just forgot :D)
Oh yeah, never mind what I said. Naor always knows better

We have 14 people working on this map (edited)
about 1/2 are mechanics team, 1/2 are building team. Each builder has a district they are in charge of laying out plans for, and building most of.
We already have almost the entire street layout for The Loop. We'll have the streets built for all of the districts by next week. (added)
*Sigh* I know this may sound annoying, but can you guys not advertise your map on other people's Watch_Dogs projects? I was just on PMC and saw one of your members had advertised on our project, which is quite annoying. If you could just not do that, that would be great. Thank you!
Er, not much hope, as a game as huge as watch dogs. You can create old and indie games in Minecraft, but AAA titles... errr, no.
I don't have much hope for this. If it does work. Kudos, if not. Eh, who cares.

Sorry bout that but how old is this post and could you tell us the username?

Of course it won't be as good as the real game is and it will take a lot of time to do but we're trying to do it the best we can!
It's been 2 weeks, and there's still not a single picture.
You're claiming that the mechanics are pretty much done, so there's no reason not to show a screenshot of it.
It only takes a minute of 2.
We can take a screenshot of the mechanics but it's only command blocks... It's not really interesting... When we'll have enough mechanics ready we're going to make a video where we're showing all the mechanics and how they work...
Thanks for all the support, we're trying to make it as fast and good as we can! We'll share with you more from the project when we'll have more to share!
Okay, I've been really inactive for the summer and I feel really guilty. I'll keep trying to work on the mechanics but I've been developing new Vanilla minigames for my server and catching up with friends I haven't talked to in a while. I'll try to get back like I said earlier, but I'm stuck on the train. Anyone have a way to detect if a minecart is moving? (Ik, this might be a stupid question but I seriously cannot figure this out... xD)

We're sorry about that... They posted their server in our post (Our old one) so we thought it would be be fair to post on theirs...

I'm not one for breaking rules. I just like to bend them out of my way.
