Cyberpunk 2077

There were rumours that with the public playtest that testers weren't happy with the mechanics, especially not with the melee weapons and combat, but CDPR did say that they will rework and work it or so those said which speculated why the title was postponed.

I don't know about the gameplay in general, but it does seem that they threw in the mechanics used by close to every current cyberpunk-themed game. I see Deus Ex, I see Observer, Syndicate, Shadowrun... and the driving mechanics looks like Mad Max dosed with GTA.

I see the multi player component have been postponed to 2022.

Haven't watched much actual gameplay. But knowing CDPR they will definitely tweek or fix any gameplay mechanistic that it's fans don't like. Have a lot of respect and administration for them as a developer. That's why most people let these delays slide. But they need to release the game in Dec. Let's hope.
 
Only boarded the hype train myself recently so no idea about life path.

I’m definitely playing on PC but I need to upgrade my GPU... ray tracing is complicating things a bit.

If you dont have a 2000 or 3000 series GPU then you cant put RT on, unless im misunderstanding you.

Strictly speaking the new 6000 series Radeons should also support ray tracing or their version of path tracing which is 'RT' compatible, but I am curious of how it will perform as the current reviews aren't favourable for RT performance.

The only title I have seen which uses RT to the extent of drooling over it is Ubi's implementation thereof in Watch Dogs 3. It was the first time I was in awe of ray tracing.

No I am fully glorious and understand the hardware side of things but there’s a trade off going with AMD vs nVidia - more vram and higher frame rate vs DLSS and better ray tracing ? Not sure if the 6800 could even do RT without DLSS. Guess we’ll find out.
 
I've got a stupid question, please don't mock me too much ... in terms of physical discs, I'm just seeing Cyberpunk available in XBOne and PS4 versions for pre-order.

Does that mean that on launch it hasn't been optimised for XSX and PS5 yet, so you're essentially going to be playing a brand new game with old-gen technology, until they release a texture update pack for the next generation consoles?

Nope, it means that buying the PS4/Xbone versions on disc will net you an upgrade to the next gen versions when you use that disc in a PS5/Series X/S. Similarly buying it digitally on either previous gen console and then installing on the current gen will also see the upgrade included upon download.

There won't be any next gen patches for the game until next year I believe. They'll still be enhanced with better resolution and framerates but i think the visuals are going to be the same as the last gen consoles until we get that next gen update.

Hmm, seems you are correct.

I had just assumed with the recent news about how it was running well on the previous gen consoles that it was a forgone conclusion that there were already 2 versions, but I've just googled it and stand corrected.

Interesting. I wonder whether I shouldn't just hold off on playing the game until then. It's not like I'm going to play it twice, so surely the first time I play it it needs to be as good as it can be?

Then again, I would like to have a good game to play these December holidays. Decisions decisions ... anybody else on the fence?
 
I wish they still had the mechanic where you could climb walls with your mantis blades and then jump on your prey but it seems like it was too difficult to implement throughout the game on a grander scale.I'm gonna play this gem on pc obviously however still torn on which lifepath to take,deciding between nomad or corpo.

I’ve been thinking about this too because I’m an indecisive person, and so far my thoughts are that the original artistic vision for the game didn’t include next-gen features, so those things will be nice add-ons but not essential to the spirit of the game. Their target spec was probably PS4 pro for consoles and a GTX 1060 for PC.

I think you should play it this December with the rest of us.
