"Pondsmith joined Microsoft Games Studio as design manager in the early 2000s, before moving to Monolith Productions as a mission designer for The Matrix Online."

Hopefully there'll be Single-Player.

Cyberpunk 2077 will be another Single Player game.

Can't wait for this one. Currently there is a dearth of cyberpunk genre and this will nicely fill up that space for me. :)

starchild3714d ago

I am the biggest Witcher fan ever, but I can honestly say that I am every bit as excited for Cyberpunk 2077 as I am for The Witcher 3. Just thinking about what a developer as talented as CDPR can do in a cyberpunk setting has me almost giddy.

frostypants3714d ago (Edited 3714d ago )

Agree. It's a travesty how underused the cyberpunk and tech-noir genres are these days. Deus Ex: HR was good, and I hear the new Shadowrun is solid, but other than those there's been hardly anything recently.

Unfortunately, Cyberpunk 2077 will never look as good as that CGI trailer on any console. However, if CD Projekt can achieve 50% of those visuals, they will have a visual masterpiece on their hands.

I'm just fed up of game co's palming us off with 'CGI' as target footage. Look at that Elder Scrolls Online CGI stuff on the net now, and then go look at someone actually playing it. Disgraceful!

Even TV commercials of games still state 'Not in game footage', or 'Not representative of game footage'. I am proud of the one's that do show 'Actual game footage', so hopefully with the more powerful hardware this gen, the trend is changing :)

Roccetarius3714d ago

I have no doubt that Cyberpunk 2077 will look like CGI, just not on the consoles. CDPR is not afraid of taking advantage of top of the line hardware, so it's kinda expected from them. :)

The fact that they know how to craft a story, is even more of a bonus on top of that.

candy_mafia3714d ago (Edited 3714d ago )

Yup I agree a top of the line PC rig should replicate that CGI video. Hence why I was extremely mindful to refer only to 'consoles'.

I don't own a powerful gaming PC, and due to cost, nor do I desire to. I wonder how many PC users have a machine capable of such feats?

Cyberpunk is on my list regardless :)

CDPR are an awesome developer! Always very vocal, genuine & against the grain. Always willing to push the boundaries because they KNOW what they're doing is good despite the fact if it did fail they could potentially lose everything.

We need more developers that are actual gamers who believe in the quality of their work. Rather than dev's that just want to push out repetitive, very safe, shit every year!

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

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.

GhostMirror6d 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.

EazyC7d 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_looken6d ago

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

Profchaos6d ago (Edited 6d 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.

They will need to add everything they promised in the first one and not over promise on the second one.

just_looken7d ago

They also need to drop esg then hire employees that have knowledge not hire them because they have a set of tits.

Official video they hired people to fill the esg clipboard

Hofstaderman7d ago (Edited 7d ago )

As somebody who has been playing the tabletop games since the 90s and was let down on launch by my PS4 version, you can bet I'm not going the preorder any sequel.

nmbr1esq6d ago

3rd person option, and everything else that was originally promised. Next don't force agenda driven naratives. Finally, release a finished product without need for day one patches.
