Cyberpunk - CD Project Red

Antar Bolaeisk

New RPG just announced by CD Projeckt Red! (They of Witcher fame)

(I'll add more details as they arrive)

So, what is it?

I've never seen one bef.......

Apparently it's a game based on the board game Cyberpunk and will feature all of CD Projeckt Red's trademark mature content and advanced RPG mechanics.

The most literal game title of all time?

Those guys back in the 80s were obviously in extremely illegal states of mind when they came up with such an obtuse name

Holy balls, this will have ALL my attention.

Looks like Geralt found a gun ... can't wait

Maybe they'll do something like Shadowrun. Might be pretty awesome. Here's hoping!

humanji

So do we wait 6 months after release to buy it so that we get the enhanced edition?

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

the EE for witcher 1 and 2 was released free so.. no
unless the game is as buggy on release as witcher 1 was so.. maybe, but witcher 2 wasn't very buggy at all on release so they appear to have learnt their lesson there

Exactly what I was thinking. I would love a current gen version of Shadowun!

Is that not being made with kickstarter?

Zero-Cool

Haven't heard anything about that but I'm weary of those kickstarters anyway. More info on Cyberpunk here.

First teaser trailer.
No in game footage.
Its still a long way from release.

A hidden frame inserted into the trailer also indicates the CD Project Red will announce a secret AAA game they have been working on, on the 5th of February

http://www.dsogaming.com/news/cd-projekt-reds-second-triple-a-game-most-probably-the-witcher-3-getting-announced-on-february-5th/#more-42253

Its strongly believed to be the Witcher 3 and is apparently alot further into development than 2077.

Zero-Cool

Watched it a few times now, I really really really hope this gets released on ps3 or ps4. I found a link to a freeze shot of the hidden message aswell but can't link to it on my phone. Im mad to play witcher on ps3 as well but dunno if it will ever be ported.

Azza

I have the link to the screen shot in my post.

I think the reason they didn't do a PS3 port of the Witcher 2 was because they are still quite a small development team with limited resources. The PS3 architecture is quite different from PC and Xbox which are pretty similar to others. I doubt you will see a port of it.

Cyberpunk 2077 is rumoured to be in development for PC, and the next generation of consoles.

Captain Chaos

Liking the art direction in this, very Blade Runner esk. Love my Cyber Punk so I do.

I'd like to see what CDPR could do with the Deus Ex IP if they ever got the chance.

Nano augmented sex scenes???

Loved Witcher 1 , didnt like Witcher 2

Will see what boards thinks of this before i buy

Azza

I liked them both but I thought the Witcher 2 was superior overall.

I liked the combat system in both.

I like the story in 1, but its goes abit nuts at the end, with time travel etc, but I liked the way it doesn't spoon fed you answers and leaves abit of mystery. Also sets up the Witcher 2 quite nicely. But the story and presentation was much better than in the Witcher 2, and you couldn't break the storylines consistency by doing things in the wrong order, like you could in the first. Voice acting was greatly improved too. Far less buggy as well.

Both games where too easy. But the Witcher 2 at least offered a challenge at the start. The Witcher 1 on the whole was very easy.

The first game was much longer.

Anyway I'm greatly looking forward to both Cyberpunk and the next Witcher.

ShadowHearth

Whatever these boys up to its a day one purchase.

They just completely got me by the balls after witcher gemes.

Magill

Yeah, you just know its gonna be sweet.

Azza

Press release that was sent out with the trailer explaining the settings and what the trailer may be about.

http://www.examiner.com/article/cyberpunk-2077-story-and-setting-details-
revealed

Sort of reminds of that Ralph Fiennes movie Strange Days, with people viewing others people memory's and emotions, mixed with Deus Ex's world of trans-humanism.

Fnz

The teaser shows how the Psycho Squad might acquire a new member.

The Psycho Squad specializes in combating "psychos" -- individuals who overuse implants and substances that boost or otherwise alter the human body.

There comes a point when they overdose on these innovations, and their bodies start to rebel against their biological body parts as well as all things organic around them. Simply put, they start killing people

Sounds interesting, and kinda dumb.

Kiith

Love the look of the setting, and i'd have a lot of faith in CD Projekt Red. It'll be a while before we see this though.

Azza

Its going to be at least 2015 before we see this.

Sarky

I've played the tabletop RPG of Cyberpunk 2020. It is quite wonderful. The rulebook has a map of Night City, it's pretty massive. Full of crooked business execs, nomadic biker tribes, augmented rockstars (a cybernetic hand can really help you nail those guitar solos), big hair, and standing up to The Man. It's an '80s vision of what the future was going to be like. And that's just a wonderful look all its own. There's so much potential for stories, it's amazing.

Azza

Gametrailers have an interview up with CD Projeckt Red about CyberPunk 2077.

http://www.gametrailers.com/side-mission/44806/cyberpunk-2077-exclusive-interview

Confirmed to be using the same engine as The Witcher 2.

valleyoftheunos

Very excited by this, used to play and love the Original roleplaying game. If doen right it could be awesome!

KonFusion

A cyberpunk game from cd projekt....

Flipping. Yes.

Antar Bolaeisk

I wonder could the mysterious game be that Lords of the Fallen which was mentioned a while ago. Timeframe seems a bit short for it to be The Witcher 3 (despite how much I want it to be).

Zero-Cool

A new trailer will be release today as stated by Cyberpunk on facebook. Also, someone remade the teaser trailer as if it was made by EA. Lots of guns, bullets and dubstep (i think its dubstep anyway), double xp and season passes :pac:

New video released where creator of Cyberpunk 202 talks about the game.

I'm very dubious about CG only trailers since the infamous Dead island trailer, but who knows! We are dealing with a reputable developer so i 'll keep my fingers crossed.

Azza

Developers are considering implementing multipal languages. You will need an in game implant to translate them for you. The higher level the the implant the more accurate the translation is.

humanji

Sounds cool. They had a similar thing in B.A.T. 2, if anyone remembers it. All aliens spoke gibberish unless you programmed a translator.

Zero-Cool

Sounds like a great addition. Hope this gets released for PS4 as well.

Azza

Its confirmed for PS4 already.

Me too, its ridiculous.

Shougeki

Well, I really do apologise for the necro-thread, but there was no other. I assume people have seen the trailer? It is in the link below....

And now there is a supposed release date leaked:

Ha. Already told my boss to provisionally book me in for a weeks leave around then.

Only another year to go!

Falthyron

30 September 2017? A Saturday? How many games have been released on a Saturday? Also, Komplett is mostly a hardware retailer for PC components, etc. Hardly concrete stuff right here.

When I worked in GAME (a long time ago) we had access to 'release dates' which in truth were only placeholder days reflecting a financial or marketing period. If this game comes out on 30 September 2017 I will buy one copy and give it to someone on Boards.ie

It's still a couple years out. Minimum.

Potential-Monke

They can take their sweet time, they have proven that they release games in the best possible playable state, so if they need 4 more years they can have it. When they eventually release a full, proper trailer, i'll watch that, and that will be the end of my watching until it's released. I have nothing but great respect for CDPR, and after The Witcher 3, they have carte blanche as to how long they want, because i know it will be amazing when they do release it.

Mr Crispy

Okay....



Doing the rounds on a few sites.

Can't tell if it's well themed PR or an actual issue...

Edit: Appears to be legit. Shame to hear about leaked files. Will wait and see what official news CDPR have. No point judging the game on leaked files this far ahead of release.

K.O.Kiki

I remember when that happened to Half-Life 2, hope it doesn't derail development too much.

Potential-Monke

I think they've handled it perfectly. Those with brains will know not to look at the leaked files. Those with some brains will look but know it's not representative. Those with no brains will be up in arms about the quality/content/etc in the files and demand everyone to boycott CDPR. They are fools and no one will pay attention to them.

Work on CDPR, we know you deliver quality, we can wait.
