Seems like Star Citizen....

Though, seriously, the game is going to be a bugfest, like ALL CDPR games before were at release. For them to delay the release date so much, imagine how buggy that shit is.

Potatolanders bit more than they could chew. Only American prestigious AAA developers can create games of this magnitute properly, like Rockstar and Bethesda.

Just wanna remind everyone about all the gameplay systems that were left to be done at the last minute in Witcher 3, like the whole economy, crafting, random loot...

Can't wait for legendary enemies that drop explosives katanas and craft that make every unique item worthless because if you get enough CyberFlowers , you can make a stupidly broken gun/katana.

So they delayed the game again and still won't allow anyone to play the game other than the "media and influencers" they invited.

Remind me why are CDPR considered player friendly by the normies again?

They will postpone it again to 2021, so CP77 will become a proper RPG Codex 2021 GOTY

I'm enjoying this a bit too much, but you gotta enjoy small things in life.

TBH, I don't get everyone whining or pretending to whine about the delay here. You sound like spoiled children.

As for me, my Christmas vacation begins on the 9th Dec anyway, and even in case of a Nov 19 release, I probably wouldn't have been able to properly play (as in play until I'm too hungry and needing toilet to be able to take it any more) before December.

A reminder to the young audience that this game has already been delayed and development restarted since 2012, was it?

Highlights from CD Projekt's conference call held after the announced delay

Following are highlights from video games developer CD Projekt's conference call held yesterday after the company announced another delay of the premiere of its much-awaited Cyberpunk 2077 release, to December 10.

The teleconference was hosted by CEO Adam Kicinski, board member and CFO Piotr Nielubowicz and board member, SVP Business Development Michal Nowakowski.

NEW RELEASE DATE: "We are firm." - CEO Kicinski. "Realizing on November 19 is possible and was possible" but "having these three more weeks gives us a chance to fix this and that." "The decision was not easy but we know there is just one release and the first impression is crucial" so in the long-run the decision is beneficial. "Better initial reaction to the game always works in favor of more sales. That is why we are delaying, we don't have to but having this extra time gives us more certainty that everything will be in the game when we release."

ABOUT THE DELAY: "This situation is different" compared to previous changes to the deadline - the game for PC is ready and plays well on next-gen consoles and the company is finalizing the process concerning current gen consoles.

GAME ITSELF: "We are really sure we have something amazing in our hands" and once the game is released, "everyone will understand" why it was so difficult. "Don't get us wrong, we are kind of internally stressed on the one hand, but on the other we feel very strong about the game." and "We are super happy with what we will deliver."

2020 RECEIPTS: "The time for the game on the market [this year] is shorter, we will have smaller revenues but still comparable," Nielubowicz said, underlining that in the case of 'The Witcher 3" 90% of sales in the premiere quarter came in the first four weeks. "Pre-holiday period should also support sales on the market."

PRE-ORDERS: The ratio for pre-orders between 'The Witcher 3' and 'Cyberpunk 2077' at the same stage before the premiere "is continuously very satisfying." CD Projekt expects no major cancellations of pre-orders because of the delay.

AVERAGE SELLING PRICE: "We believe we are a premium title, we don't have to give any extra incentives."

(NO) CONTRACTUAL FINES: "there are no penalties we would be facing from any of our partners."

MARKETING COSTS: "We will have to reschedule the marketing campaign and such a rescheduling will most likely entail higher spending," Nielubowicz said, adding it's too soon to offer any exact cost. "There is gonna be some extra supporting budget for sure to account for the change," one of the officials also said.

FEEDBACK: Feedback "gives us a lot of confidence." Those who completed the game say they have never played a game like this before." - board member Nowakowski

IMPACT OF DELAY ON EXTENSIONS: "We expect no impact on extensions."

FUTURE PROJECT (IMPACT OF THE DELAY): CD Projekt plans some "organizational changes" in technical departments. "Too many things were put together at late stages." - CEO Kicinski

The things you will be fighting with depends on platform you choose.
Old consoles will have bonus content. Aside from fighting mealstorm you will be also fighting low framerates, new gang entirely set to make your life miserable.

I assume Extensions = Expansions.
And the last sentence gives some hope they might finally learn the lesson. :|
