This shit woke game apparently went gold before this.
How do you delay a game that went gold?
The same way Atari handled ET.
Why do you call it shit woke? Isn't CDPR just about the most based major developer there is?
Maybe in 2015 or so, they’ve been cucked since then.
Haha. This is the last game I ever pre-ordered. It's been nearly two years now and the only reason I still have it pre-ordered is I stacked a bunch of discount codes on it to the point I'm getting it for roughly half price day one. I'd lose all that. I still like the developer, but I suspect they are woke now too.
I was a big fan of the Deus Ex games and excited about it before the hype went nuts. I'm now expecting it to be a total dumpster fire.
I loved the Witcher games but CD Projekt Red sadly has gone woke.
This game will most likely be converged with woke bullshit.
This will probably be their last game without the woke ideologues infesting it from the very core, I assume people will be able to tell most of the truly woke bits would have been added later in the development. They're just too big a target (and got too big) for them to remain unaffected enough to keep it at bay. Honestly, the trans crowd latching onto the cyberpunk genre as a "for them" representation probably just made it easier to infiltrate under the guise of it being "genre-appropriate".
The woke ideology may or may not ultimately sink into the company, but I'm quite certain the online obsession will. CDPR is planning to add multiplayer to Cyberpunk at a later date, and should that take off, that will be it; the company will focus most of its resources on the online functions the same way RockStar has (namely microtransactions) because that's where most of the money is. One way or another, Cyberpunk 2077 will indeed be CDPR's last good game
They already had a lot of woke bullshit in TW3 dlc.
The profile picture makes it obvious
What? When? Where? I didn't get that memo.
TW3 has woke stuff in it
It'll be released right after Star Citizen.
By that time R* will have a new Online update to compete and crush it.
By the time 2077 releases R* will have released GTA V on the Playstation 6.
Just R* things.
Their launch patch needs to go through the slow process of approval by the microsoft store, playstation store, etc. This is normal, and I'm glad they're shipping with their last minute fixes rather than pushing them 3 weeks after the game launch.
How about we stop thinking that's acceptable?
What? Ever heard of development? These aren't actually going to a "gold" CD for distribution. Why would you want buggy software?
How about they finish the software before shipping it out so it doesn't need a massive day 1 patch?
Because that would push the launch back even further, since they have to create the physical disks well in advance.
Have you ever finished software?
I've done a bit of programming but this line of questioning is a non-sequitur. The fact remains that devs aren't finishing their games and shipping out software that requires massive day one patches rather than actually just finishing the game first so that their customers can just buy the disk (or preload the game) and play it without waiting on whatever internet connection they happen to have.
Shipping out a product that is so broken that it requires fixing on the first day of release should be unacceptable.
Agreed, it is about time we all stop tolerating this BS with day one/zero patches.
I mean, I don't think BoTW has ever had a game-breaking bug. Or even anything that seriously impacts the playability of the game. And that thing was pretty massive.
If Zelda can do it, it can be done. We just have to assblast any company that treats its developers -and customers- so poorly.
I'd say the reason Nintendo doesn't have broken games is because they test it thoroughly on the one platform they're designed for.
You can't exactly get mad at a company for continuing to support and develop for a game once it's released. Do you think if developers released it when it's done™ that it will ever get released?
I must be missing why everyone is taking this so personally, did they promise to launch on your birthday or something? Better polished than a buggy mess IMO. We get much worse games from BethSoft (for example) releasing on time. CDPR is already going 6 days a week on this baby.

You're saying you've got experience with Agile SDLC and supporting collaborative projects? How about dealing with a half-dozen patch approval processes? My question was a joke, you are never done with software.
This isn't programming deterministically for a space probe, it's making software "good enough" for millions of environments. There will be bugs, and the way you get to a release date and to your next project is by presenting your audience with the most polished beta version you can make and then developing it more.
I agree that big installation downloads must suck when you have the physical media, but that's why we've had digital versions for 20 years. Are you saying you're upset because you have a bluray of Cyberpunk 2077 and have to wait an hour before playing an updated version?
All I want to know is: what made them originally set the release date to April? An eight month delay is quite substantial. Covid didn't really fully kick in till early March so it can't have had that much of an impact on the development.
It was actually march, then it delayed to april, then to november and now to december.
Hmm? I'm pretty sure it was April 16. That's what their initial release announcement with Keanu Reeves at E3 2019 said.
I remember they saying March not long after the first gameplay in 2018 (which was all bollocks anyway), but I could be misremembering.
lol cyberpunk will never be released.
You're not getting my money. Fuck off :)
