We got to experience Cyberpunk 2077 gameplay - Handsome Phantom

By Ben Smith On Jun 16, 2018 :
"Rumors and speculation about CD PROJEKT RED’s Cyberpunk 2077 have been flying around for more than half a decade and the anticipation has been palpable after the success of other projects from the developers. At E3 2018 we got a full teaser trailer as well as private screenings of gameplay for the title and they did not disappoint in any way.

It can be difficult for a studio known for such a popular series and its style of gameplay to have a good showing on its next effort, but CDPR has obviously been at work for a long time and it is clear the efforts are paying off. "

All these reviews about people getting to play the game and we're still waiting on seeing the actual gameplay itself. Dont understand, if the games at a playable stage why weren't we shown it?

Last_Boss2552d ago

I think they're waiting for a later show to open it wide open.

BiggerBoss2552d ago (Edited 2552d ago )

Yeah, but you would think that they would be super eager to show their fan base some gameplay. Why keep it secret?

I'm excited for the game, but I really hope that the gameplay footage doesn't disappoint.

Last_Boss2552d ago

No real professional answer. The only thing is to wait patiently. Or impatiently lol

BiggerBoss2552d ago

I'm definitely waiting impatiently lol, when did they reveal this game?

It makes ZERO sense to make a "secret" gameplay reveal, but not show the REAL fans how the actual gameplay looks.

LiamKreptic2552d ago

I’ve never understood these “behind closed doors” gameplay demos. I’m the one who’s gonna buy the game so show me it already!

BiggerBoss2552d ago

EXACTLY. Why hide the gameplay from their fan base? It makes zero sense to me, personally.

No Way2552d ago

I'm sure they are not ready to show it; publicly. They are likely showing it to a small audience to let them know that it's not ready but wanted to show a sneak peak to get some kind of reaction.

getbacktogaming2551d ago

I don't like their strategy but I guess they are trying to build hype... And I am wrong in thinking they want to delay showing recordings of the gameplay to the competition?

starchild2552d ago

Because journalists are generally more mature and knowledgeable of the industry and game development so they understand that games in the middle of development are subject to changes. A certain segment of gamers do not understand that concept and seem to think anything a developer shows of their game during development is a promise. And these people feel they are entitled to whatever build they preferred, so when developers make changes to their game that they don't like they rake developers over the coals.

Although as a gamer it's frustrating not to get to see the progress on games I'm interested in I can't blame developers these days which choose to wait until later in development to show us very much of their games.

BiggerBoss2552d ago

You can say that Journalists are more knowledgeable, but why does that mean that CDPR can't show gameplay to their most dedicated fans?

DarkVoyager2552d ago

If the gameplay was this good and everyone that got to witness it was blown away then why the hell wasn't it shown publicly? I’m dying to see this game in action!

BiggerBoss2552d ago

Yeah, if the gameplay is SO good, then why not show your true fans and not just the journalists? It makes no sense.

Antifan2552d ago

So they can have something to show at gamecom, duh. Don't ruin a good thing

thatguyhayat2552d ago

Just doesn't make sense. We deserve to get to see something at least. Long term fans whos been supporting their games especially the minor backlash cause of fps. These behind close doors is just stupid.

Antifan2552d ago

We deserve EA and Activision annual bland titles. Instant gratification, loot boxes with some progression paywalls. We definitely do not deserve a studio like CDPR.

warriorcase2552d ago

Press have said there is an actual player playing in the demonstration at e3 so I would guess after e3 they might do a more choreographed playthrough to record and release to public. Fingers crossed

Good news. I wasn’t really excited about 1st person and was hoping it was a darker in theme game but if it’s good and rpg I have to play it

It's running on a monster rig with a 1080ti, no wonder it looks like next gen.

CyrusLemont2552d ago

Damnnn, although it probably needed that raw power for a work in progress unoptimised build. Still though, I guess it means cross gen might be on the table and it’s going to be more worthwhile getting it on next gen consoles to get closer to that visual fidelity we keep hearing about.

I know they keep saying they’re aiming for release on this gen, but what, Xbox One 720P, PS4 900P, PS4 Pro 1080P, Xbox One X 1440P? If we’re lucky lol.

I mean will the console CPUs be able to handle the densely populated load of NPCs, physics, simulation etc.?

I’m just having a real hard time picturing such a highly demanding and visionary title running on current consoles.

riibhu2552d ago

Even if you get the target resolution on consoles even then it will be pretty behind the PC version in terms of other graphical features. And don't forget the 60 fps.
And hey what's to say that it will have additional features and improved graphics on next gen consoles( if it is a cross gen) just like GTA V. Maybe they will add a 3rd person mode in the future too.

getbacktogaming2551d ago

I prefer better effects to higher resolution :D

Yui_Suzumiya2552d ago

I'm dying to see game play especially after all the positive feedback! This is torture :3

OnDec762552d ago

This should have been shown at E3 and not behind closed doors. What a missed opportunity

Releasing a Full Game On a Nintendo Switch 2 Cart Makes Sense

Begone, game-key carts. Full cartridges just work better and here's why.

Game key karts are just digital games.....why keep up the facade

Profchaos20h ago

I didn't bother buying any game key carts for my system despite my preference being physical.
I brought the mkw bundle and that was a digital code but I wasn't going to pay double for the game
I got yakuza 0 digitally as the key card made zero sense to me it costs more and its just a digital game in disguise (I never sell my games anyhow)

darthv7220h ago

...obviously. If a game is 64gb or less, it should release on card. If it exceeds 64gb, the key card comes into play. It does suck that Nintendo wont support smaller cards, SW1 games came on anywhere from 8gb to 32gb cards. The cost of using a 64gb card for a game that would fit comfortably on a 32 or even 16 may not be cost effective for some smaller devs. Hence the use of the key card.

Then again, its taking a page out of Sony's book. They mandated the use of DVD media for all games a few years after the PS2 released. Until then, they supported games on CD. Then when it came to PS3, no game was allowed to use DVD, they all had to be bluray regardless.

Now with PS5, they only use UHD media, no regular bluray for games allowed. Even if the game is smaller than a DVD. So i can see Nintendo trying to standardize their game cards. If devs dont want to pay for the use... the key card is for them.

gigoran87h ago

why even bother buying one of the fake game cards? It's just going to be digital anyway. Save yourself the hassle of having to insert these fake cards and just buy it from the online store.

But I absolutely 100% do not agree with Nintendos take this generation. Forcing the new norm price point, and releasing a majority of their titles digitally with no sense of game preservation. Very disappointing.
