Cyberpunk - CD Project Red

Somethings going down

If this turns out to be Jodie Foster's oul lad......

The bottom of the screen now reads "Starting Upload" with a progress bar...... I'm 42 years of age by the way. I shouldn't be this excited.

Here we go...

Well that was just...

Having a feeling we won’t get a release date on this until it’s on the brink of going gold, probably 6 months before release if not a little less. CDPR won’t want to put any pressure on themselves by setting any sort of deadline, this won’t release until it fully meets their expectations and not a day sooner. It’s going to be so worth the wait too, excitement levels are through the roof right now.

The female default looks like a realistic Sombra from Overwatch. Latina(?) Same hair, same two cyber line things.

Your man was still moaning about having his legs blown off after his head was blown off.

Literally unplayable garbage.:D

It looks like everything I've ever wanted. Tbh, I don't think the gear needed will be that onerous. Next gen console hardware is probably already out. The Witcher looks pretty good and runs on a toaster. Any mid tier contemporary GPU will walk it at 4k.

Looks very good, super excited and definitely something I can see myself buying week one and any expansion packs later. Kinda wanting to do an entire play with no cybernetics and just talk my way through everything.

Wish the demo was played with a keyboard and mouse though. Combat looked like it was on easy mode and shooting seemed relatively standard and slow to compensate for being designed around it. FOV was way too low as well but I guess it was just a demo. The maturity was refreshing.

Looks amazing, god only knows when the release date is though. I'd say 2020.

Been saying that for a while. I'm going to go one better and say it's gonna be released 02/02/2020 :P

Stolen from Reddit:

There is a hidden message in the last frame of the Video!

Sorry to have kept you waiting for this for so long!

Did you like what you saw? Because for us, the fact that we're finally showing you Cyberpunk 2077 is HUGE. Please go to our forums, twitter, facebook, discord, and do tell what you think. Is the game world how you imagined? Do you see what we meant by "immersion" when we talked about CP2077 being an FPP RPG? How does our vision of "cyberpunk by day" make you feel? We really want to know.

Aside from that, we think we owe you a few words of explanation on why we're showing you this gameplay now, some time after industry professionals and media saw it at E3 and gamescom.

Each time we discussed the idea of showing the game to you (and we discussed this idea a lot), we were ending up in this "we're not 100% sure" limbo. Why? Because (for most people), when a game dev shows gameplay footage from their game, it means that this is how the game is going to look or play like. It's not the case here. Cyberpunk 2077 is deep in development. We have a lot of design ideas, a lot of mechanics being playtested, but we don't know what we'll end up with at launch. This makes publishing videos like what you just saw risky --we don't want gamers saying 'but in that previous video that gun was shooting differently', or 'why did you change the interface?'. Change is inherent to game development and there's a ton of things being modified each day. Our fear was (and kind of still is) that you'll think what you just saw is how Cyberpunk 2077 will look like.

What gave us that extra confidence to show you a work in progress game? Good initial feedback from people who are accustomed to see games at various stages of development. What they told us (and they told us they really liked what they saw) gave us the boost we needed to show the current version of Cyberpunk 2077 to the most passionate and insightful audience --you.

So here's what Cyberpunk 2077 looks like today (or rather looked like when we recorded the video). We sincerely hope you liked it.

Again, thank you for your patience and all the thoughts you shared with us.

Yours,

CD PROJEKT RED

Edit: this blew up. Just to be clear, i have nothing to do with CDP Red, i just found it at the end of the video by accident

I can't be sure but thought it had related to the trailers (like the 'killing monsters' on where the soldiers are hanging the woman by the tree) but could be completely wrong as I was only reading this a year or two after the fact when I got my PC built and picked up TW3 as the first game along with Civ VI. Either way, they've definitely decided to avoid that wherever possible this time between the watermark you mentioned and actually scaling up a bit for the gameplay trailer. Good to see, and just another reason to love CDPR - how I wish more were ran like them.

The killing monsters stuff are a series of pre-rendered cinematics. They're not really related to the in-game graphics.

I think a big thing that happened with the Witcher 3 was that the colour palette was shifted towards something a bit darker and that was a very stark change that people often didn't like. It wasn't necessarily just about graphics that made people think it looked worse.
