of course it's gonna be delayed... every freaking game gets delayed, it's very rare that a game like this (big, ambitious game that isn't part of an annualised IP) doesn't get delayed
at this point I already expect it for every game that announces a release date.
If they announce a game will come out in... say... March, In my mind I will instantly expect at least a 1 to 2 month delay, so they say March and I hear May... they say May and I'll hear July.
Damn you
I doubt it will get delayed. CD is more competent than SE.
This is probably consolles version fault.
They are probably studying black magic to make this game run decent on these old ass hardware.
Need more time to retrofit this to the shitty old consoles.
And it will still run like arse on them come the 17th September.
Hope you guys like patches.
Don’t wanna toot my own horn butttttt......I expect it.
Hopefully to launch day and date on PS5 / PSVR2! .... I wish!Wait for the meltdowns when Valve delays Half-Life: Alyx.
Same. The odds were very high it was next up for the Wheel of Delay Prediction game on gaf.Called it when FF7 Remake was delayed.
Damn you

what can i say? they are ambitious with their projects but they still have to learn how to scale down for lesser hardware before ever creating a game.I doubt it. Why is everyone else able to create games and not them? So when someone has to delay a title this many times and then starts to remove features, I don't blame hardware, I question why they team didn't know this ALREADY when they started creating the game in the first place. This isn't this first time making a game this gen, this isn't the first open world game this gen...
Whats the issue exactly? What exactly are they trying to do that has never been done before that the hardware THEY ALREADY WORKED ON BEFORE is to blame? So I don't fault hardware for this, I fault the developer themselves. They knew for years what the systems could and couldn't do and based on what they are doing, I'm puzzled at what exactly they are having a hard time with as many, many...MANY open world games exist.
They removed buying apartments, never mind you can do this in GTA SA and VC.
They don't want to add 3rd person as a option, never mind you can swap it on Fallout and Elder Scrolls.....LAST GEN!
So its starting to sound like this is the team having trouble with doing stuff that has already been done vs the hardware. As you got to question how all the other open world games exist this gen, yet this team is having issues with 2004 features. Folks can tell me about the size and scope of the city, yet Ubisoft cranks out AC Origins, Odyssey and Ragnarok. Not the same games, but the reality is.....if the size is really giving them issues, how on earth are those other games even existing at all? So I'm still buying the game day 1, but I'm not ready to start blaming hardware on a developers issues, that clearly is not happening to all the other developers that have no issue releasing open world games this gen.
S Slings and Arrows lol I still got that 20% Amazon discount on pre-orders! THEY GONE PAY WHAT DAY OWE DOE!
Ribi Though I don't think its vaperware, I worry about the delay. I'm ok with it for them to make it as good as they can, but seeing how they already are removing features, this tells me maybe this team isn't as good as folks suggest. Its not saying hardware may not be some issue, simply that they already knew about hardware as this isn't their first game on it. If they don't know how to do those things, all it tells me is that this team just isn't as good as folks try to claim. All I see from this is Deus Ex with cars. If that is a MASSIVE issue for this team, that alone worries me as they are not even doing anything that different or new to open worlds to be having this issue.
So I'm sure it will come out, how much will be downgraded and removed is another story. Will they even tell us is another story, remember Witcher 3? Game went from realistic looking to cartoony over night.

next gen can't come soon enough for games of this scope.
AC odissey is big but it's a copypaste of origins, with a lot of copypaste forts to conquer, 90% of linear quest, and a shitload of half-baked features, but it's not even close to what cyberpunk is trying to achieve from what we saw in the trailers.With what feature? Its not the first open world game with cars. So I see nothing to claim its "ambitious" as to why they are having issues as they are not even doing anything that hasn't even been done this gen. Have you see the damn size of AC Odyssey, Breath of The Wild Dying Light 2 etc? So until someone actually CITES A REAL FEATURE thats happening in this game that is some huge first, give me a size that is the biggest, give me a count of the number of buildings that is the largest in such a game etc as its sounding to me like they can't create a open world game with cars, never mind that open world games with cars exist no issue this gen.
Is 3rd person being a option ambitious too? When they removed buying apartments....was that just too ambitious too? So when they have issues with 2004 features, I have to start worrying here. In this respect, I'm not going to blame the hardware, CDPR knew what hardware they where working on several years ago, at this point the fault is on the teams if they were unaware of what they hardware could do, as other teams are making open world games with cars and not scratching their heads at 2004 features and how to make them work. This is more and more starting to sound like a "them" issue and not a real issue with the hardware itself as why on earth are other open world games being made on current gen hardware without such issues?
Don't you think its weird everyone else is able to know the hardware they are working on and develop accordingly? Until they give a real feature that is a first, new, the largest or most count of something, its sounding like they are just having issues with making a bigger Deus Ex.... That doesn't sound like anything ground breaking to me.
AC odissey is big but it's a copypaste of origins
not even close to what cyberpunk is trying to achieve
they are big games but cyberpunk looks more stratified.
old ass hardware and for big games like this one, is not a simple task to work with.
i mean, have you asked yourself why a shitload of people are fucking their brains out for this game?
