It Is Very Clear ‘Cyberpunk 2077’ Has A Long Term ‘GTA Online’ Plan

The long term endgame plan of Cyberpunk 2077 becoming a revenue generator for CDPR like GTA Online seems clear.

rlow11236d ago

I could see them pulling the trigger on this. But after all the bad press would anybody bite?

phoenixwing1236d ago

online gamers would line up if the gameplay loop was good. I personally don't play online games so I don't plan on buying it or spending any cash in their store.

The game sold millions and will continue to sell. Especially for the PC crowd.

Wait a few months and everything will go back to normal.

All of this is just assumption. Literally an entire article saying "GTA has guns and cars and activities; so does this ...... therefore this is going to be GTA online".

LucasRuinedChildhood1236d ago (Edited 1236d ago )

In articles from weeks ago, it was said that the online component is "considered an individual AAA product rather than just a mode" (this quote says it all) and "2021 appears unlikely". They're obviously planning something similar considering the scale of the project. GTA Online helped GTA5 remain relevant for 7 years (very high engagement) and sell more than 100m copies. It's just common sense. GTA Online doesn't have a real direct competitor

MadLad1236d ago

My point being the writer never brings any of that up in the article.
If you read it, it's literally them saying "There's guns, cars, and activities, so obviously their online component is just going to be GTA online again".

Just shoddy journalism.

OhReginald1236d ago

I don't want to hear anything about multiplayer until they fix the damn single player.

neutralgamer19921236d ago

Exactly and before people come in saying game has no issues and they have super rigs

MadLad1236d ago (Edited 1236d ago )

I ran the game at a locked 36 fps, 1080p, with a 6 year old 970, a 9 year old i5, and 16 gigs of ddr3 at medium settings.
That's literally an old gaming rig I now use as an office PC.

It may take a high end PC to run it at 1440p +, with all the settings cranked, but it doesn't take anything insane to get the game running decently.

RgR1236d ago

I know 2 other people with similar setups as @tedcruz mentions below.

My own pc which I don't have the space to use for gaming anymore is very similar as well. So I know I could run to the game at 1080p settings and have a decent experience.

Nobody is saying there are no bugs though. It's just not as bad for everyone. And if you play carefully and smart, knowing there are bugs, then you should be fine....especially if you have an SSD. Then itsna cakewalk to just save and reload quick.

got_dam1236d ago

Agreed. I love the game. My game of the last few years. But im not deluded enough to say they didn't royally fuck the release and their goodwill. Im lucky enough to have a stable experience, but that is only because I have a strong pc. Console players, and pc players less powerful hardware, got totally screwed. I really, really feel sorry for the dev team. They get to eat a juicy shit sandwhich because of the piss poor decisions made by their management. Too bad because you can really see the love poured into the game.

neutralgamer19921236d ago

For gamers paying full price they shouldn't have to be careful to enjoy the game and not run into bugs. I am not blaming the developers because they did the best they could but the high ups knew the issue and they released it anyway. They probably thought we are CDPR and gamers won't be that mad

And sadly many are defending CDPR but the same gamers if given the opportunity would bash the living crap out if other big publishers

esherwood1236d ago (Edited 1236d ago )

I’m playing on Xbox one and it’s best game I played this year, u people are just mad it didn’t live up to some unreal expectation you built up

anubusgold1236d ago (Edited 1236d ago )

I only have a 1080 and a 3700x you can build that for cheap these days. I get 40 fps on high at 1440P people with 1080P monitors may get close to 60.

anubusgold1236d ago

To prove these console people wrong i want to download it on my laptop and see if i can get 30+ fps locked since it has a 1660ti in it.

esherwood1236d ago

Oh shut up people like you are going to be bitching no matter what. Hopefully they realize that and ain’t wasting there time

anubusgold1236d ago

Play it on pc if you have a 1000 series or higher card its good for 40 fps medium settings at 1440P.

MadLad1235d ago

No no no.
This doesn't run well on consoles, so you obviously have to take out a loan to get a PC that makes it run decently.

anubusgold1235d ago

@TheRealTedCruz A 1000 series card is like what 200 bucks and a 200 dollar six core cpu and you can get those in a motherboard bundle because cyberpunk does not use 8 cores.

MadLad1235d ago (Edited 1235d ago )

I have a 2060 super and i7 build, but I got this running decently on a 970 with a 9 year old i5 and 16 gigs of ddr3 as an experiment.
1080p, 36 fps, and mostly medium settings.

The people acting like it takes a super computer for a decent experience have no idea what they're talking about.

RgR1236d ago

Absolutely nothing about the game or current events point in that direction.

Also notjing the developers previous history points in that direction either.

Oh..forbes.com

Right

Aussiesummer1236d ago

Nothing about the developers previous history pointed to cyberpunk being an absolute clusterfuck either.

RgR1236d ago

Maybe if you didn't play theur gsmes before.

Witcher 1 had issues and witcher 2 had issues. They released buggy and with performance issues. Granted they primarily focused on pc.

That focus is evident with cyberpunk as well. They shoulda just dropped last gen consoles.

franwex1236d ago

If they can get their act together, it would make a really special online experience for sure.

Cyberpunk 2077 Director On 95% Positive Steam Rating: "Never Thought I'd See It"

Cyberpunk 2077 has come a long way from being one of the worst games on the planet to being one of the best ones.

DustMan1d 5h ago

I shelved it after a few hours in game at launch, glad I didn't refund it. One of the few games I've actually completed in the last year, and after finishing the campaigns I wanted to just jump back in from the start. They pulled a No Mans Sky and finished one of the best FPS in the last few years.

Games That Were Bad on Release, But Are Now Great

BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.

Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."

Good list..hoped to see Street Fighter 5 there..and it is.

Vits13d ago (Edited 13d ago )

Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.

darthv7212d ago

Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.

I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.

Kaii13d ago

They consider FO 76 & ME Andromeda to be great now 🤭

anast12d ago

Every game in the last 2 decades...

INMATEofARKHAM12d ago

It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.

gunnerforlife12d ago

Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.

S2Killinit12d ago

That game was just plain good game. It didnt improve, it was just good.

gunnerforlife12d ago

I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!

Well they are using unreal engine now thanks to there work culture and horrific job on making cyberpunk so for the future no impact.

But it will be interesting to see what mods will be made

https://rebel-wolves.com/

just_looken24d ago

7 disagrees shows how many look at one dlc that had a rip off fight from ghost in the shell and goes wow what a goat team i love cdpr while ignoring that they only made 2 games that were good witcher 2/3 in 20yrs.

But its a new world we want a criminal that support's legal murder as president/support shoplifting love toxic work environments and have a mass casualty event every other day.

GhostMirror24d ago

I’ll admit I didn’t play it at launch, but Cyberpunk 2077 is a really good game now.

And who the hell knows what you’re even going on about in your second paragraph here.

EazyC25d ago

Wait a min...I swear to god CP2077's source code got leaked before. CDPR needs to stop using "password123" for all their accounts 😅

just_looken24d ago

Na its hundreds ex employees no doubt just getting there revenge.

Profchaos24d ago (Edited 24d ago )

This is the same leak the threat actors have been trying to sell the source code after cd project didn't pay the ransom.

They didn't manage to sell the source code to any company largely because it would be unethical for say EA to buy it so the threat actors failed to find a buyer.

After they failed to make any money they went through with their threat of simply giving it away.
