Cyberpunk 2077 Pre-Release Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

[TemplarGR]

Imagine if the money spent on graphics were spent on making AI Dungeon like logic work in an actual game. You could even justify it being always online for single player games that way

The worst part is that even though they spent so much on graphics, the graphics are still sub par considering it is a late 2020 release with raytracing.... Those textures are trash, especially in some places they look like PS3 stuff....

If this graphically-year 2016 game has inflated requirements, then they are going to get a lot of backlash... I hope they have it optimized.....

It sounds like you want true AI. That's total fantasy bro. Not going to happen in our lifetimes if ever and there aren't really any steps between what we have now and that.

True AI is totally independent. That's still a fantasy.

What I'm talking about is some heavy scripting that creates illusion of the "living world" right in front of you. It's not even that hard: such work requires a lot of coding, checking a lot of variables; it's more tedious than hard. It's still taxing on your hardware: lot of scripts running at the same time.

You know, if some big studio had decided to spent at least 30% of their current game budget on such scripting the result would be absolutely hilarious. Iron Tower with its ten people team managed to create one of the best C&C systems in game's history; what a team with 400 people and huge budget could have done?

LOL.It didnt even reach top 20 on 24h hashtag count. It was only number 3 trending on twitter for less than hour and its trending lasted only couple of hours. What a flop. Most games would stay lot longer and higher. Considering how quickly it dropped, it wont go any higher on 24h hashtag count.

Also in may it was 12th most popular game in may:

Lost to ass greed odyssey and valhalla. Both Last of us games also completely destroyed Cyberpunk. Cyberflop 2077.

Yeah, it is a disaster of epic purportions. It is going to flop, hard. As for the bullshots in the thread, guys, FOR FUCK SAKE, stop it. We saw the damn videos in HD. Game when running is barely on par with Far Cry 5 or Star Wars Battlefront. Perhaps raytracing might save it somewhat. But from what i watched, even GTA V on PC when maxed had better textures in some places. And that was a PS3 game with higher res textures and some new shaders....

This is rich.....

I don't think all that effort put into audiovisual design is wasted or superficial. You can clearly see that the game oozes cyberpunk atmosphere and i think this is a vital part to the experience. One guy from Game Two (German videogame show) who was among those who played the preview said that you can find music, commercial videos, decoration, fluff npcs and other enviromental storytelling that enhance the atmosphere pretty much anywhere. You can't do that with dull and samey looking enviroments.

 

[Tehdagah]

Yeah anyone saying this game doesn't look above current competition is nuts. Those screenshots above are way above current standards. Also one of the streamers said that at 2080ti it run 60fps @ 1080p with RTX on with 0 tears or framedrops.

It looks like a 5 years old game.

 

[Grotesque]

so what is now the default look for the female character?

the mongoloid one to the left or the original to the right?

from the reviews , at the character creation, there is still the option to play with both male and female character looks shown in the original 48 min gameplay reveal?

 

[TemplarGR]

Yeah unbelievable optimization polish coders are code wizards i tell ya, no game with RTX on can run at perfect 60fps @1080p on a 2080ti except Cyperpunk... Except it is easy to run at 60fps when your game looks like a 5 year old game.... Hell, even Watch Dogs might look better maxed than Cyberpunk. I have to refresh my memory of the original Watch Dogs to make sure....

 

[gerey]

so what is now the default look for the female character?

The mongoloid.

We must make sure to destroy the male gaze wherever we find it.

The only difference I see is make up

 

[Comrade Goby]

It looks great. Also its great to not to be a child and have unrealistic expectations for AAA games

We aren't getting hardcore AAA rpgs, it's just not economic yet, few more generations possibly

The most impressive C&C as of late i found in Detroit Become Human. Granted the game is a closed world/scene experience. Still im 100% sure the actual choices in the cyberpunk will not affect the game living world, it will still be a constrained modules of very isolated changes.
Beside the best AI programmers dont work for game dev.

 

[Dodo1610]

Have redesigned both V versions in the last months?

I still hate the name V, it just is not a nickname for a man. It 's why will never play the male version.

You wouldn't know cyberpunk if it bit you on the arse mate. There is no punk here, it's in name only.

 

[CrunchyHemorrhoids]

All I got from the new footage is that it looks and talks great which isn't new. All the different previewers seem to have put out identical snipped gameplay footage.

Lots of sex appeal, loverslab types gonna have a wild time with it.

I'm assuming VR helmets will be fully supported and the best way to experience the game once the "definitive"/full next gen version pops out.

well, male VO is way better but whatever

 

[jf8350143]

The whole stream is mostly from OK to Meh, with only one exception, the braindance.

it looks boring as shit and looks like it will be extremely annoying in the second or third playthrough.

Also the dialogue system is still shit but we already know that.

Detroit Become Human was absolute ass

I like how we oddly got like three or four character reveals in video games around the same time for characters named V.

Repent. The end is near.

LOL. Are you polish by any chance?

Look, i don't care too much about the graphics. Honestly the game is looking fine. Witcher 3 looked really good as well. It doesn't have to be best in class to be an AAA game.

The reason i am criticising the graphics, is because of the many delays and the pretense that they are trying to make something truly next gen. After all these years and all this hype, if the only thing they can deliver at late 2020/early 2021 is a me-too AAA GTA clone, then the myth of CDPR being "one of the best studios" will collapse.
