i didn’t played the game and honestly dont really plan to do so, but CDPR acted more than just shady during the marketing of this game. Seemingly they also lied to their investors so they are now planning to sue them.

i feel sorry for the Staff of CDPR, but i hope the Investors will tear the Management a new asshole.

Why? We live in a Pandemic and afaik you cant even work right now, so what else should you do? Stare at the wall until you go crazy?

Time you’ve spent with something you enjoy was never wasted.

I’m 30 Years old, I’ve literally grown up with a Controller in Hands thanks to my older Brother.
He and my Sister lost interest in Gaming when they grew older, but I still love gaming and probably will always do.

Everyone has a Hobby, some collect Stamps, others build Model Kits or enjoy Football or Motor Sports. Nobody should be ashamed of their Hobby.

i think most industries have exactly the same shitty problems, because they are run by the same kind of people…I just think we as Gamers notices stuff like that more in the Game industry than lets say the Movie business? With more interest comes more information i guess.
This isnt an attempt to sweep the problems of the industry under the rug, i just think other branches are doing the same, unfortunately.

This is true and it really makes me angry. But i think its wrong if the good Guys of the Community leave because of those Bastards, its like letting them win.

Sorry to hear that, maybe thats a better topic for the Dr Lafayette Thread.

Back to Topic: some of the bugs I’ve seen in videos are hilarious, real crazy shit.

I’m waiting for the price to go down a little and that most of the bugs are fixed. I would buy it for pc in a heartbeat but with my GTX1060 max Q I rather enjoy it on the PS5 without the overheating.
My gaming laptop runs at 80C in Warzone with the settings on medium, I can’t imagine Cyberpunk.

mixed feelings about cyberpunk.

on one hand, it’s a pretty shallow rpg, mechanically speaking, and has some questionable social/ethical attitudes (mix it up, tiger claws, etc.)…

…on the other, night city is a genuinely incredible digital space to explore, even with its overall lack of interactivity. the sense of scale is unmatched, and it captures the whole bladerunner/neuromancer vibe brilliantly. the build variety is pretty good too.

i’ve put my copy up for refund for now, primarily because cdpr were so shady, but i intend to buy it again in future once it’s back on psn and on sale.

I wouldn’t say I was hyped for it but I brought it day of release and played for 5/6 hours and just wasn’t enjoying it.

Playing it on PS5 so had no problems with bugs but it was something I just couldn’t get into.

The game should never have been released in the state it’s in but after 3 delays they just had to get it out.

Regarding bugs. I’ve run into less on cyberpunk than I have on the game pass release of skyrim, and bethesda has had several years to fix that by now. So far haven’t run into anyone missing a face, and haven’t fallen through the world either, which gives it a leg up on Unity. Does the game have issues? Absolutely, however I feel pretending that CDPR is somehow guilty of some new crime or did something worth the investor lawsuit is ignoring history.

It’s the “Thing the internet decided to be mad at”
Whatever legitimate complaints there are get buried by a deluge of people who likely never even planned to play the game hopping on the bandwagon to attack it, since they have no personal issue, they just repeat whatever they see on Twitter.

Same thing happened with Andromeda. What was originally a few reported issues with movement and facial animations turned into people who had never played mass effect calling the game “literally unplayable”.

I’ve genuinely enjoyed the game, and have played it for 60 hours now. Loved it. But, the lack of content, brain dead NPCs which includes NPCs not able to drive or get across obstacles easily, Police Spawning issue, random T-poses, missing or weird animations.

I’m giving CDPR proper time to take the No Mans Sky route and change the game with proper time and with reduced developer crunch, while taking this hard lesson to not say Yes to your investors if your game isn’t ready, and be honest about the release i.e., ‘Release when its ready’.

Fairly disappointed to see the sheer lack of content, No Trains, No customization options post character creation, really boring UIs for buying and selling stuff.

My final rating for the game as of now is a 7/10. The music, Johnny Silverhand, and the story are quite nice on their own. I wish the game is able to recover most of its cut content in future patches and become a much more refined and true experience.

Well, content is cut or basic features you expect from an open-world RPG. First and most basic, the Police AI. Right now its not working as intended and you know it. Police just spawns behind you even if you’re in the remotest place with nobody close to you, if you commit a crime.

Drivers not able to maneuver around a parked car, even GTA 3 had sensible working traffic navigation AI.

This is the content or basic necessities in the game that should be there. The game is good even with all the missing stuff but you know it could’ve been more amazing if the game was given proper time and love. The game is surely rushed to meet the deadline.

You have to think, that a game this big should have such features in it. Let’s wait and see what the game shapes upto in 6 months or so. I’m hopeful CDPR will fix a ton of stuff and add the neccessary features.

The game is good as long as you follow the missions or what the game intends you to do. If you try anything else, like messing with the traffic or start a fight with the police, the game just falls apart like a house of cards.

it’s the overall lack of detail and presence of systems that don’t come close to fulfilling their potential that irk me most about it. there is the framework of something great there, undoubtedly.

i dunno, man. ai pathfinding for cars is pretty basic; are there many open world games where cars are present that lack that? plus, cops being a gta style pest and them just spawning in out of thin air are mutually exclusive issues.

things like that are particularly grating when the game world so obviously tries to be immersive. the city, the atmosphere, the commitment to first person - all of it is for nought if the minute you look a little closer it all falls apart. just seems like an awful lot of cut corners for a game in development for that long, you know?

Man, I’m not starting an online argument lol but its dumb to defend a game for its obvious ‘lack of content’

The map is almost similar to most ubisoft open world games, 10 different missions copied pasted all over the place.

Well, cyberpunk police (by lore) may be dumb but the super cops aren’t, you mustve seen them in the prolouge, when Jackie was driving with you. But, they don’t act like those heavy hitting folks, instead this cheap teleport police ai system is present. And my friend its not rare, you shoot an npc, you get 1 star and folks start spawning, no matter the area, location or time.

This ain’t a judge dred scenario, just sheer lack of any police/ swat system.

And you’ve mentioned other points as well, but just see for yourself. I’m not saying let the internet twist your experience, but as a paying customer have some sense to see that ‘yo, this game doesn’t live upto the hype or marketing and seriously needs work’.

I’m mentioning the ‘lack of content’ because these are features cdpr mentioned that will be in the game.

So, for a 2020 game that gets out smart and out featured by old games, yeah, I’ll call that ‘lack of content’ :smiley:

And surely, the game won’t be having the sun, moon and stars but basic features you’ve seen in RPGs, customization post character creation, lively UI, gamellay animations, overall polish are the least requirements.

Dunno, sounds like you are twisting other’s experience for sure. What about just let it go and accept other’s experience of the game even though it irritated you (even though that sound like what I am doing right now :laughing:).
My experience? Never saw a trailer so I think this game looks fine. But then I researched on Cyberpunk lore and to be honest, there are interesting stuffs inside I wish to be in the game.
