Support NeoGAF

[Trippy]

A bit annoying but I’d rather have a stable product on day 1.

These things happen.

 

[KyoZz]

Ok I'm very disappointed, but if it help the game to ship in better condition, then be it.

That's not cool...

 

[ethomaz]

How do you delay something that went GOLD already?

Told you guys this game was gonna be delayed(albeit a short one).

Or they lied.
Or you will have a patch near 50GB at day one to the game works.

 

[Mhmmm 2077]

Well, now they missed The Game Awards 2020 for sure... and I'm sure none of the journalists will remember to include it as a candidate in 2021.

 

[Koenigssee]

Fuck CDPR

 

[prinz_valium]

Sure, what's the wager?

$1 PayPal
I don't think it's likely. Just a possibility.
But i wouldn't bet money on both making the 13th.

 

[Warnen]

Shit, cyberpunk just gave Godfall an opening for me, epic should thank them lol

 

[ebevan91]

They want full next gen upgrade patch for release day 100%

If this is the reason then I wish they’d just come out and say it. Would make people feel better about the delays.

 

[New Yorks Finest]

They want full next gen upgrade patch for release day 100%

I really wish that was the case, but its not even close. We're hoping for a next gen patch!!?? while they can't even fix their buggy ass game for a public release.

 

[FunkMiller]

Well, it’s not like we haven’t seen a single frame of this game running on current gen consoles or anything.

I‘m sure it’s all JUST FINE.

 

[Andodalf]

Good news for games like Doom Eternal, Final Fantasy VII, Animal Crossing, Last of Us 2, and Ghost of Sushi which all deserve more recognition

get dabbed on

AC Valhalla about to make a lot of people angry by winning awards

 

[Jdroop]

Delayed 2077. Just don’t set a date lol. Just show up in stores.

 

[Saber]

You guys are pushing your luck. Either release or don't, you're trying the patience of the ones who supported this lol

 

[MiguelItUp]

They're a prime example of why you don't give out dates without knowing for SURE that it's something you can hit. One slip up is one thing, but this? Come on now, lol. Even their community manager taking care of their social pages has been throwing out guarantees. Hell, during my first few days as a community manager that was something my boss told me several times over.

"Never guarantee something that we/you cannot guarantee. If we can't hit that date, then it can blow up in our face in more ways than one. Be it release dates, bug fixes, patches, etc."

I put a few extra days in for CP2077, now that's not happening. But hey, whatever, I have a lot of extra vacation time. But I dunno if I'll be able to put in days for CP2077's release now, lol.

 

[itsjustJEFF]

I don't think we've seen anything other than PC.

That's absolutely crazy to me. We were potentially just a few weeks away from their releases! Think of how many people have seen CyberPunk, PC Version, thinking that is what they'll get from their PS4/One version. Not everyone follows videogames that closely to know that there are different versions.

 

[ethomaz]

so tomorrow will go out the new Crunch article by Jason Schreirer and the random CDPR developer, they have shown a lot of stuff lately and they said the game was gold so seems they found some bugs to be fixed

Imagine devs already crushing for months have to crunch more one month lol

That is what is happening.

And some tried to days it was just few weeks lol.

 

[GymWolf]

*thinks of something positive about this*

At least I get more time with Demon's Souls before jumping into Night City.

Yeah, more time with demons\launch titles is one of the few positive things about the delay (that and more polish for the game of course).

 

[LordCBH]

 

[DonJorginho]

These guys are the fucking worst in the industry when it comes to scheduling.

Fucking horrendous, I bet the game gets delayed again.

 

[Neko Mimi Mode]

Fine, fine, I'll play AC Valhalla

 

[Arkam]

Came to post the Vader "NOOOOO!" meme.... but this actually works out for me. I have SM:MM and Demon's Souls to play in November. This date, plus holiday travel, it might be easy to wait for a few patches to iron out the kinks. Pick the game up mid January and have a great time.

 

[New Yorks Finest]

Probably review codes that were sent out for the masses was a fkn mess and unplayable at certain points in the game.

 

[Kssio_Aug]

For Christ sake, again??? Why is it so hard to tell us a date which they can actually accomplish? This sounds like a stupid joke.

 

[Sub_Level]

Well, now they missed The Game Awards 2020 for sure... and I'm sure none of the journalists will remember to include it as a candidate in 2021.

It looks like a good game after an initially lackluster reveal. That one fits too

 

[Warnen]

Godfall, Call of Duty, or Valhalla.... witch one to get to fill the time.

 

[Maxwell Jacob Friedman]

confirmed TLOUP2 taking that game of the year award now lmao haters gon hate

 

[Starfield]

Did Chris Roberts spend a day at CDPR office?

 

[Salz01]

I mean we haven’t even seen console footage, it was a clear sign.

 

[Dr.D00p]

Ok I'm very disappointed, but if it help the game to ship in better condition, then be it.

Why do I feel we might still be reading posts like this on NG in 2022.

What a fucking shitshow.

 

[MMaRsu]

Ok I honestly did not expect this, even took a few days off from work, and I wont be able to take in December in that period. This is a joke and smells of incompetency or at the very least, lack of faith in certain features. I dont buy that its just because of all the versions they have to support. I was totally fine with all the delays up until this point, but now I have to wait and ruined my free days cause they need to support Stadia ?

If you think the pc streaming stadia version needs work, I have news for you.

Its the 2013 consoles holding this back

 

[KyoZz]

Why do I feel we might still be reading posts like this on NG in 2022.

What a fucking shitshow.

It's 21 days, It sucks for sure but people canceling their pre order is ridiculous

 

[ethomaz]

I'd presume we can definitely complete the main game as it stands, if they're telling the truth.

But you'll probably run into some severe FPS drops in the last few areas, several textures might be buggy, some side quest triggers might not work as intended, etc.

FPS and texture bugs never delayed games.
Broken bugs yes.

The delay means they found some really critical bug that put the game in unplayable state.

If not they could just do a patch a week after release.

Delay = $$$$ out and not getting in.

 

[MMaRsu]

Well, now they missed The Game Awards 2020 for sure... and I'm sure none of the journalists will remember to include it as a candidate in 2021.

Oh no, not the GaMe aWaRdz! Whatever will they do now??

 

[Warnen]

People loosing there shit over a 1 month delay, that Sony racing arena game got a 3 month delay and no one cared. People just want cyberpunk.

 

[Enjay]

They're approaching the cuphead guys' level of stupidity now here. Also which sjw complaint did they delay it to address?

 

[amigastar]

Better release a good product instead of rushing it. Look at Torchlight III.

 

[Starfield]

People loosing there shit over a 1 month delay, that Sony racing area game got a 3 month delay and no one cared. People just want cyberpunk.

If they cant hold a release date 2 times in a row they probably wont hold it the third time either.

This be a Q1 2021 game, 100%

 

[Dr.D00p]

..its more like 8mths. Point being their release dates aren't worth shit.

 

[Dibils2k]

 

[Vawn]

So "Gone Gold" officially doesn't mean shit.

But who really cares? We will all be playing Demon's Souls anyway.

 

[The Fartist]

 

[Kupfer]

I hope I can change my 3 days off I took for the game T_T

 

[Warnen]

fine by me, lots of other things to fill the time with. No need to rush greatness.

 

[Endless Fluff]

50GB day1 patch incoming.

 

[mr.dilya]

The gaming industry is a fucking joke.

 

[mcz117chief]

Who wants to bet that it'll actually come in 2021

 

[Dr. Acid Avatar]

More time to finish Demon's Souls, I was worried about having to beat it in a week.

 

[PhillyPhreak11]

This is disappointing. WTF, CDPR?

 

[Alebrije]

There is a special place for CDPR ...they are just waiting :
