Why?

The game still lacks compared to what they showed off and promised, why waste time, even a small team on multiplayer. They just need to scrap the online nonsense and focus on the single player.

porkChop1010d ago

The multiplayer project is a separate game being developed by a separate team. That team postponed development to help fix 2077. The game still isn't entirely fixed, but it's in a significantly better place than it was at launch. It might not be necessary to have both teams working on the game anymore.

-Foxtrot1010d ago

It's still a waste of money considering the main game is an on going issue

Urrakia341010d ago

If the game still isn't entirely fixed after such a long development time, a few delays and one year post-launch??? Then yes it's absolutely necessary to have both teams working on it. Disgraceful, but we already know where CDprojekt's priorities lie. 2077's state at release taught us that.

seanpitt231010d ago

It’s all the systems that need fixing not just the bugs.. it’s the police system it has to be one of the worse ever created in a open world game plus NPC all react the same and are so stupid it’s needs an overhaul what a disaster…

frostypants1009d ago (Edited 1009d ago )

Why is anyone downvoting this? It's all fact. People who think taking this budget and throwing it at single player will fix things are naive. More money doesn't magically fix things faster.

The games dead already, I'm not even bothered anymore when the ps5 version drops.

Silly Mammo1009d ago

I bought it for $5 last week. So I'll take a look at it when the PS5 version is released.

VenomCarnage891009d ago

Same, well $10 but I got the steel book included. It's just gonna sit on the shelf until the PS5 patch releases

Yui_Suzumiya1006d ago

I got it at launch for the base PS4 and love it. It doesn't need multiplayer though.

I finally uninstalled the game. The pop-in in this game is ruining it for me, which sucks because this is a game I could play for a really long time and get excited by the DLC and so on, but I finally had to let it go.

FullmetalRoyale1009d ago

I feel you. The pop-in is extremely immersion breaking. I had it day one, and got a refund shortly thereafter. I bought it during that best buy $10 sale, doing what most people seem to be doing in waiting for the current generation update.
It's just such a shame that whoever ultimately made the decision to launch, when it probably needed two full(non pandemic) years of development to match their vision.

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.

DustMan13d 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.

Vits25d ago (Edited 25d 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.

darthv7225d 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.

Kaii25d ago

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

anast25d ago

Every game in the last 2 decades...

INMATEofARKHAM25d 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.

gunnerforlife24d 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.

S2Killinit24d ago

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

gunnerforlife24d 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

just_looken37d 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.

GhostMirror37d 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.

EazyC37d 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_looken37d ago

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

Profchaos37d ago (Edited 37d 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.
