MULTI Cyberpunk 2077 - Base game + Phantom Liberty sales cross 30 million copies!

[Necrokiller]

awwww good to see Shikari found a new hobby. Glad to teach him something new. Plenty of time on hands now that he can't inquire about the game on ResetEra

 

[CerebralTiger]

Thanks Major Necrokiller, appreciate it

 

[Necrokiller]

Really feel bad for Shikari. He was so interested in hands-on impressions but completely disappeared when they arrived.

I'm really looking forward to his ultimate cut-scene to gameplay ratio analysis and see how it compares to she-hulk part 2

Meanwhile, dat ricochet targeting system ..... sogood.

 

[CerebralTiger]

Hands-on impressions aren't exactly glowing with praise for the gunplay, driving, and melee. Maybe that was the initial push that drove Shikari away lol.

While I do appreciate the variety in guns, the shooting itself looks serviceable (from the looks of it, reminds me of the weapon handling in Far Cry 5), as several hands-on previews have said or implied. One single individual from the press did find it to be similar to Destiny, but at the same time said that pulling the trigger felt weighty. Not a good look for the input lag test

Either way, I'll find out in 100 days. My critical analysis awaits.

P.S. Dat ricochet UI is outta control

 

[CerebralTiger]

Another aspect I appreciate is the good hit reactions, especially wrt mesh deformation.

This kind of feedback does add a layer of satisfaction to the gunplay, but the responsiveness of shooting and weapon handling are equally as important.

 

[Necrokiller]

One single individual from the press did find it to be similar to Destiny, but at the same time said that pulling the trigger felt weighty.

lol @ "but at the same time". That individual meant it as a positive. Shikari misconstruing, as always.

Others called it a legitimate shooter as well. Either way, sounds great to me. I quite enjoy "weighty" shooters as well and won't be playing this at 30fps anyway

Moreover, we already know what some people have considered the "best" playing shooter here. (187ms to 357ms)

Either way, I'll find out in 100 days.

lmao @ will power.

I'll get a copy at launch

@GoldenHawk Yeh lo. Shikari ki will power ne jawaab de dia. Lumber 1 hater

 

[Necrokiller]

This game looks sooooooooooo good.

@CerebralTiger Thanks for supporting CDPR. Hope the game doesn't end with V forgiving every one in Nightcity. Also how much is it on PS Store ?

 

[Necrokiller]

@CerebralTiger Thanks for supporting CDPR.

Supported TW3, hence supporting Cyberpunk's development. And now, supporting the next Witchaaa game. CDPR's games are just that irresistible.

Also how much is it on PS Store ?

Not $29.99

---------------

Also, the game always had great hit reactions. Shikari is just a little less blind to them now.

Wow... What a great episode this was... I am actually confused between the Street kid or the nomad path... The corpo is a straight no no for me. I am more inclined towards the nomad path though. Curious to see what others would choose @Necrokiller....

All paths seems to have their own benefits in ways you will deal with people. As much as I liked both Corpo and Street Kid, I'm more inclined to start out as a Nomad. The idea of getting to Nighty City as an outsider sounds very intriguing to me.

But I'll be playing it at 30fps, just so I can compare it's shooting lag with Destiny and report back ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Moreover, we already know what some people have considered the "best" playing shooter here. (187ms to 357ms)

TLOU1's shooting latency at 30fps is ~183ms i.e. 11 frames (tested playing as both Joel and Ellie). Stick deflection tests are far from accurate because it isn't humanly possible to maintain the same delta time between deflection startup and full deflection across tests. There's far less room for error with a button press.

@GoldenHawk Yeh lo. Shikari ki will power ne jawaab ne dia. Lumber 1 hater

Dunno about Shikari, but I preordered it when the dollar exchange rate had dropped and there was a great offer on PSN credit. Getting it at launch meant paying more ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Also, the game always had great hit reactions. Shikari is just a little less blind to them now.

You mean the build that "doesn't represent the final look of the game" and had many showcased or stated features removed? At least that disclaimer is gone now

@CerebralTiger Thanks for supporting CDPR. Hope the game doesn't end with V forgiving every one in Nightcity. Also how much is it on PS Store ?

I'm supporting my critical analysis, which should be very interesting to you and Major Necrokiller

It's for $60, but I paid the equivalent of ~$45 thanks to a great deal on PSN credit back when the dollar exchange rates were lower.

 

[Necrokiller]

You mean the build that "doesn't represent the final look of the game" and had many showcased features removed?

Doesn't change the fact that the hit reactions were just as good before.

@GoldenHawk When someone else pre-ordered the game at a lower price AND dollar rate, they become

It's no surprise that the biggest dyed in the wool CDPR fan would preorder it the day it went up :hah:

When he himself pre-orders, "thanks to a great deal"

The definition of a miserable individual. Makes excuses of critical analysis and ends up pre-ordering CDPR games

I'm supporting my critical analysis, which should be very interesting to you and Major Necrokiller

Not at all. I was somewhat interested in Shikari's posts on ResetEra. Your "critical analysis" in this thread (and Witcher 3 in the past) have been shit tier, to put it mildly. Not even worth reading for the lulz. However, do not forget to "report back" on the cutscene to gameplay ratio. That's what I'm interested in as far as your so-called "critical analysis" are concerned.

 

[CerebralTiger]

Doesn't change the fact that the hit reactions were just as good before.

Can't trust footage that doesn't represent the final look of a game. After all, the only gameplay mechanics I found interesting i.e. wall running and clinging using mantis blades, have been axed. Don't let that disappoint you, though, because the PC gamer article totally "justified" their omission lol.

Speaking of which, I wonder if it's at least still possible to perform aerial takedowns.

The definition of a miserable individual. Makes excuses of critical analysis and ends up pre-ordering CDPR games

I also preordered Sekiro and Rage 2, among other games, to offer my critical analysis, so it's not like it's the first time or exclusive to CDPR games. No excuses detected, but someone sure is reaching for them

Not even worth reading for the lulz.

That's too bad. My findings in both the Witcher 3 thread (randomized attack animations with varying priority, dumb af AI) and Sekiro thread (spammable deflect mechanic) both came with visual evidence. But oh well, as you already know, numbers don't lie. Here's hoping you'll at least entertain my shooting lag analysis @ 30fps

As for the gameplay to cutscene ratio, it's likely to be much higher than TW3's due to its interactive conversations. Good to see CDPR has finally seen the light lol. Though, it'd be disappointing if all you can do during dialogue is rotate the camera.

 

[Necrokiller]

Trusts it for critical analysis but not for appreciation

After all, the only gameplay mechanics I found interesting i.e. wall running and clinging using mantis blades, have been axed.

And yet, pre-order was placed after the fact. Jokes on you

So convenient though. Maybe point us to a post where you "appreciated" those aspects? Even as Shikari. I'd totally accept that.

Don't let that disappoint you, though

The jaw dropping bullet ricochet feature is present. Only person left disappointed here is you.

Maybe you can inquire as Shikari on ResetEra? Oh wait...

The amount of hatred for CDPR always coming from you is not the same as any other game though. Pathetic then, that, CDPR keeps benefiting from your pockets. Don't let that stop you from offering your shit analysis though. You've earned that atleast lol

As for the gameplay to cutscene ratio, it's likely to be much higher than TW3's due to its interactive conversations.

But how would it compare to She-Hulk Part 2? That's the real question.

 

[CerebralTiger]

And yet, pre-order was placed after the fact. Jokes on you

I've preordered games I've had little to no interest in for my critical analysis. Nothing new here lol.

Maybe point us to a post where you "appreciated" those aspects?

Isn't it obvious? As someone who finds verticality to be an integral part of encounter design in an action game, I didn't feel it needed to be said out loud lol.

The jaw dropping bullet ricochet feature is present.

The ricochet UI looked jittery, which wasn't the case in the original footage that didn't represent the final look of the game.

The amount of hatred for CDPR always coming from you is not the same as any other game though.

Someone's clearly forgotten about the Sekiro thread

But how would it compare to She-Hulk Part 2?

She seems to better fit that description

Thank you for yet again supporting CDPR and funding their next game

Feels the need to write a wall of text but leaves out what he apparently now found most interesting. That's one approach

 

[Necrokiller]

@GoldenHawk I think I know where this PSN credit came from.

Got a good deal on some psn credit. Put it up for preorder Sony

Out of Miles Morales's budget. Probably the only wise choice he has made in his life

 

[CerebralTiger]

@Chandoo please grace this thread with your presence. Necrokiller can't handle the lack of attention

Out of Miles Morales's budget. Probably the only wise choice he has made in his life

Khud hi se khushfehmiyan paal rahay hain loug

 

[Necrokiller]

Yes Chandoo, please come and give this guy some credibility who denied using Friend 2's account on ResetEra when evidence says otherwise. Surely, he is to be trusted ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
