Would You Rather See Multiplayer Or More DLC/Expansions?

[poldengonyboy]

Hey, just a quick question I have, I'm wondering if people on here would rather sacrifice multiplayer and get more than 2 expansions and the avg amount of DLC? Or if they would rather we get just as much DLC as we did from the witcher and in a few years time see Cyberpunk multiplayer?

Personally I would rather see more single player expansions, but I want to hear all your thoughts too.

Plaese add a poll. Single player DLC of course. Ideally more than 2, considering Cyberpunk 2 will never be a thing (two games in same map makes no sense...)

Both. They will be separate games.

Why does these kinda thread always assume they have to be mutually exclusive?

I'd play a multiplayer as long as it serves a purpose. But currently i do not see a point in a multiplayer mode. I rather see singleplayer mode's potential being fully achieved.

I never have and never will play MMO's. so no SP content only

 

[Arsenic_Touch]

To hell with multiplayer.

Single player, DLC (a lot of them) i hate multiplayer

I'd love to see expansions, but I think multiplayer is something that could really help to kick off this franchise. I love Cyberpunk and I want it to do well. Multiplayer would be a huge help to make it relevant for many years ahead.

Same. CDPR is going to do both, as far as I recall anyway. If anything, I would expect CDPR to delay the MP if they need to until they are satisfied with where CP2077 ends up. In fact, I would see that as being beneficial to them. They will not generate the same excitement from their MP as they did with CP2077. The only way they can even begin to recoup some excitement for MP would be by focusing on making CP2077 better.

I have next door to zero interest in multiplayer, so the more they buff single player, the better.

They aren't necessarily mutually exclusive but one will get more support than the other. If MP is successful, you can bet they'll focus on it.

My guess is that, with them potentially pushing back MP to 2023 as they've said in the investors call, we'll get a year or two of regular support for single player. Once MP launches we'll see much less support for SP and if MP is successful we'll get bug/balance patches only after MP's launch.

There are 5.000.000.000 multiplayer games out in the market, while at the same time i can barely count more than 10 good open world RPG's.

Single player content all the way through, please.

Well it's possible they give us extra expansions and so on and still give us multiplayer yes, but it's a bigger financial risk for them and also Multiplayer development will put a time constraint on things.

If they decide to make a multiplayer they will eventually have to move away from development of the single-player game. If they want to drop it in 2023 then that gives them a year to work on this game and a year to work on multiplayer. This means they will have less time to not only develop expansions, but also less time to release them. Plus once multiplayer is released, this game is going to be done with it's development cycle completely.

Is the poll not working or something?

 

[GrimReaper801]

Considering the results, it seems to be working fine. Did for me anyway.

I would like to see both but the game play will much different for MP.. you can't really slow time in MP. Itd be great if it was more about cooperative missions than just who can point and shoot each other better.

Seems like they've got alot on their plate tech wise to fix and it'd be easier to deliver more sp content

 

[CaptainMainwaring]

We'll be getting both so I'm happy enough.

 

[Nerconiglio]

Expansions/DLCs for SP. I like MP, but I don't have a lot of time to play online modes and grind my levels/creds up.

We'll be getting DLC for sure, but I'm talking about getting more DLC than initially promised as a trade off for having no multiplayer. Would you rather have more than 2 big single player expansions? (4 maybe?) Or would you rather have 2 and get a multiplayer mode down the line?

I highly, and I mean very highly, doubt that CDPR wants to create some basic deathmatch MP. Especially since it's apparently going to be a standalone paid for game all on it's own. My guess is they want to create something closer to what you want.
