Cyberpunk 2077

The crashing on PS5 is getting annoying now. Totally random, but lost 20 minutes of exploring so that ****** me off.

Also couple of times it resets the controls & removes HDR. Would get one or two crashes on my PS4 but wow this is unstable, playable but questionable if this was ready
 
I feel vindicated ^^

This is exactly what I've been moaning about on a reddit thread, yet, I keep on getting "it looks great" and "it looks fine" responses.
 
So far enjoying it on ps5.

Turned fg, ca and motion blur off. Games immediately looks a lot better. Aside from one crash has been smooth. Very immersive.

They releases this game in the state its in with the majority of players on last gen systems. What the hell where they doing. None of this looks acceptable. Even then on new gen machines they are running last gen upscaled. 8 years... 8 years they have been at this.

Shouldn't have been released on ps4/xbox. Absolute money grab, but the public will never learn. There is a reason why game companies don't release demos anymore....

Why people pre-order without any reviews/demos is beyond me.

Agreed, the Pro and X don't seem too bad but I'd be wanting a refund if I was playing on base last gen.

You know something is up when there are no console reviews and no footage out there.

Shame as seems like a good game. There will be a week of moaning and complaints but will be forgotten again.

Tbf the game is getting absolutely trashed everywhere I see. Even on reddit which is normally an echo chamber.

The next gen console version definitely needs an upgrade. Some of the coding is a bit robotic and breaks the immersion. Still enjoying it though. 8/10 in current state.
 
Played it a bit, left it on the default high and got between 35-55 fps on my geforce 1660, turned down shadows a bit and now it never goes lower than 45 fps. Nice looking game even at the settings I am using. Decided to play as a corpo for that american psycho vibe!

CDPR has a lot of good faith, hence people defending the game. Imagine EA published a Game like this :D
I feel that the base console review embargo was the first underhanded thing I've observed them do, but at the same time, I can understand why you'd do that from a business perspective (i.e: being the largest market).

I'll wait until the HDR / lighting is fixed and have another look then, and make up my mind whether or not to shelve it until next gen textures etc.

Thanks for this ... I just requested a refund and got it immediately. Will patiently wait until next year.

Yeah, mass effect Andromeda is an example of IMO, a bloody good game that got unfairly trashed on release and was never really able to recover.... Seems like 2077 is in a worse state but is getting a free pass by many media outlets. It shows have been delayed by 6 months I reckon.

To be honest, i think they have burnt a lot of the good faith they had with this.The whole thing stinks of more of a marketing scheme to get people's money through preorders than an actual effort to make a really good and polished game.

I don't think i have ever seen a game advertised so much. It has been everywhere, almost the whole year. Also, Keanu Reeves most definitely does not come cheap. The money they must have spent on those things combined must be colossal.

I imagine many people who pre-ordered would have preferred to see that money go towards more coders/beta testers...

It is all well and good having a massive marketing campaign and A-list Hollywood stars, but if you burn all your money on that and then churn out an unfinished and heavily delayed game, it is NOT a good look.
 
Yea, totally see where you're coming from @Jono8 .

A-listers and game dev cost aside, I've also never witnessed as big a marketing budget ever. From 9gag banner ad on their Facebook page to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4b33NTAuF5E , to Forza painted CP77 cars, every single merch/branded deal you can imagine, to MMA sponsorship/outdoor/print/TV/Radio ... the list never ends. Maybe that's partly why I'm being so overly critical too... all the marketing being shoveled down my throat for so long wakes up the contrarian in me.

Don't get me wrong, I'm still frothing for the next gen version ... but I've just re-learned my lesson to never preorder a game, and will wait for 6 months.
 
Not a CDPR fanboy, I couldn't even get on with the Witcher 3, but I put an hour into the game last night and I literally can't wait to get back into it. Playing on XSX, so my PS4 version will be going up on marketplace now.
 
Why are user reviews still locked on Metacritic? I see the single critic review it’s got is 35% for console.
