    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 :p

    Holy balls, this will have ALL my attention.

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


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 12,013 Mod ✭✭✭✭jaykhunter


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

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

    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?


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,472 ✭✭✭✭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.


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,472 ✭✭✭✭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.


  • Moderators Posts: 5,554 ✭✭✭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.

    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 :)


  • Moderators Posts: 5,554 ✭✭✭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.

    Whatever these boys up to its a day one purchase.

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


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,732 ✭✭✭Magill


    Yeah, you just know its gonna be sweet.


  • Moderators Posts: 5,554 ✭✭✭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.

    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.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,054 Mod ✭✭✭✭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.


  • Moderators Posts: 5,554 ✭✭✭Azza


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


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,967 ✭✭✭✭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.

    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.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,332 ✭✭✭valleyoftheunos


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


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 2,588 Mod ✭✭✭✭KonFusion

    Flipping. Yes.

    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).

    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:
