Defend the devs all you want. But marketing and all the higher ups deserve all the hell they are getting and much worse.
Why do you feel bad for him? Anyone who was not happy with the product got refundedHe did but my point still stands
If only all mediocre game would be like Cyberpunk. If I consider the RPGs that I played in the past year, Kingdom Come Deliverance, Outer Worlds, Divinitry 2, Greedfall, and PoE Deadfire, Cyberpunk beats them all (although Kingdome Come is a close second).The fault of this game is not that it's not perfect. It's that it is painfully mediocre.
This mediocrity would be alleviated if there were actual choices and consequences, if the dialogues and lifepaths actually mattered. If it's not a good RPG, and certainly it's not a good action/adventure or sandbox (because of the lack of systems), then what is this game good at?
Fixing it requires much more than bugfixing. It requires a reworking of quests and gameplay systems. We can give all the support we want, but they dropped the ball hard. They deceived their customers and released an half backed product with things that are just not acceptable from AAA games in 2020. They need to show that they want to complete the game. The reputation on the studio lies on this. Who is going to be hyped about their future project after such an awful release?
I pre-ordered this game. And she didn't even demand a refund when it turned out that this was not a game, but a disaster. Isn't that enough?If there ever was a time this studio, this team needed our support, now is that time.
Don't worry, the complaints here luckily only account for a minority...the rest are busy playing the game. The toxic ones are always the most vocal so they seem to be more than they actually are and for many it's to their benefit for click baits or views. Keep giving the devs your support, I'm sure posts like these go a long way in letting them know they did a lot of things right despite some flaws.
Bugs are sadly not the only problems the game suffers from.. or else it wouldnt be as much of a problem as it is now. Ive just found a video, where a person is standing on the trainrails and then goes to one of the stations and enters them.. (the doors are open) It made me really wonder, that they really planed it but just dropped it. Once you enter the building its a glitchy room.They already sold 13 million copies of this game.
I let you count how much money it makes.
Do you want to start a fundraising support for them?
In my opinion, this is a nice game but ruined by so many bugs until now!
Just check it there to see all the bugs reported: https://forums.cdprojektred.com/index.php?threads/screenshots-of-bugs-in-the-game.11042096/
The company management is responsible to release the game in hurry without a real and serious debug phase.
Loosing faith in CDPR may be more harmful in the long run.
Pity because I'm sure 90% of the dev team has done a great job...
They got our support from people purchasing their product. CDPR created this fiasco and they deserve nothing further from anyone until they produce the product their marketing and interviews said we would get. This is a multimillion-dollar company, not some individual going through a bad spot in life. As it stands right now they are no better than any other developer over-promising and not delivering, they even went so far as to take jabs at other developers for their underhanded practices. The sad part is that even if they add in all the stuff and bring the game to where it was supposed to be they will never regain the level of trust from the community they had before. The game as it stands now is mediocre, shallow, and full of unrealized potential like so many games by other devs. The worst part is that I was truly hoping this game would be great and the loss of faith now that CDPR is just another dev putting out a half-baked product is making me consider hanging up gaming.
Dew it!I can FEEL your ANGER. Strike CDPR down with all of your HATRED and your journey to the DARKSIDE will be complete. Your hate has made you powerful. Let the hate flow through you and take your place among dark companies like activision, ubisoft, epic games, microsoft and ea. Everything is going as they have foreseen.
I gave them enough support with my $60 I won’t be getting back.
I am giving them more support than they should be allowed for giving them the benefit of the doubt that they might make the game NOT crash every other hour and maybe—MAYBE make the game back into what we were promised.
They don’t need any more support from us. We’ve paid them for a product that wasn’t as advertised. The burden is on them to actually deliver the product as advertised, even if it takes half a year to do so.
Regardless of what they do, I may never buy another product from them again, especially on launch.
Pilling more and more hate on Cyberpunk seems to have become the norm and it shouldn't be.
OP has an important message, with just a bit of support, CDPR could be the next Ubisoft or EA.
Drop the multiplayer plan entirely, it is not CDPR's cup of tea. They write stories not open-world multiplayer content. I think folks also need to manage their expectations better. At least one of the of the planned features that was scraped was impossible to implement on anything. That is the fashion system. People want more gear and clothes and I agree with that, but we currently have 6 clothing slots + that optional outfit slot. If there are say 15 choices for each slot, that gets us over 150 million outfit combinations that have to be calculated by every reactant NPC to determine how they react to your outfit, and it has to be done for each NPC in a scene in real time.
If they add in more individual pieces they could do a more limited outfit system where instead of reacting to you based off the clothes you wear, each piece is assigned a value and stat (cool, intimidating, intellectual, grungy and edgy for instance) and the NPCs react to the stat that is highest based off your current value, that might be doable, much more so than the fashion system most people are referring to where they react to the outfits based off the actual visual appeal, and it gives modder's a good framework to work within.
Really I just want better AI, apartments (and the ability to decorate them), some improvements to factions, some balance patches for enemies AND the player (netrunning needs to either be toned down for the player or buffed to all hell for the enemies) and more story content, both side and main quest content. Flesh out the gangs (via quest lines and missions), fill more of the interiors and unlock some of the damned doors around the map, add more stuff for working for and against the corpo's and maybe add some missions to resolve the issues introduced at the end of the game.
Moving away LOL. There are at least 200k players active at any time today on Steam alone.
