Cyberpunk 2077 - Page 3

Couple of interesting bits from Adam Kicinski and Piotr Nielubowicz at CDPR financial conference:

character creation and lack of predefined character confirmed

multiple classes/roles confirmed

they again made it clear that CP is not going to contain any microtransactions or other stuff like that, you pay for the game once and that's it

Cyberpunk is very technologically advanced and developed in such a way to be ready to take advantage out of future hardware/generations, but regarding next gen consoles, they can only speculate, since none of them were announced yet

regarding multiplayer, Adam stated that their first priority is to deliver great single player experience with amazing narrative, but at some point they might deliver some online features. For me it sounds like multiplayer won't be part of the game at release and will be added some time after.

also he added that as opposed to The Witcher, in Cyberpunk player will be able to move in three dimensions, I'm not sure what exactly he meant by that

Because I'm getting a little irked at some of the dumber reactions to the trailer, I'll answer a few.

"Why is it so bright! Where's my neon lights, rainy nights, and Blade Runner aesthetic!"

Notice how it's Cyberpunk 2077, not Blade Runner 2077. Please at least bother to look up what the tabletop RPG is and how it presented itself.

"It's called Night City why is it daytime!"

Named after its creator Richard Night.

God I'm pretty sure 99% of people don't actually know what cyberpunk is, and think that the vaporwave aesthetic of Asian neon signs in the night with rain passes as the genre.

CD Projekt describes the game as a "first-person RPG."
Gameplay is in first a first-person perspective, but switched to third-person during a cutscene.
You play a character named V (as in the letter).
V can be a man or a woman.
The stats you pick it the start include Strength, Constitution, Intelligence, Reflexes, Tech, and Cool.
These stats are all pulled from the original tabletop RPG.
You can drive cars in the game, and seemingly toggle between first and third person during this.
While driving in first-person, the U.I. appears diegetically on the windshield.
CD Projekt also described Cyberpunk as a "mature experience intended for mature audiences."
Like Witcher, you take missions from NPCs and have dialogue options in conversations.
It's an open world that you open up more with "street cred." For example, a specific jacket might raise it by 5%, allowing you access to new places.
Completing a quest levels up your street cred.
The UI in the demo is extremely minimal at -- just a light compass and a small quest log.
UI expands during combat -- enemies have names, health bars, and what appear to be levels.
Some enemies have question marks instead of levels, possibly meaning they're much higher level than you.
Damage numbers pop up during combat.
There's a bullet-time-like ability that allows you to slow down time.
CD Projekt keeps emphasizing that choices have consequences, in the moment and to the world at large.
Obstacles have several solutions depending on your skills. For example, V got to a door, but his hacking skill was too low. However, his engineering skill was high enough, so he could open a panel and bypass the door.
There's an inspection system lets you look super close at items and learn more about lore.
You use an inhaler to heal.
Gunplay feels slower than Doom or Borderlands, but faster than Fallout 4.
CD Projekt showed off some late-game abilities, including mantis-like blade arms and wall running.
We saw a boss fight against a dude in an exoskeleton. This included sliding under cars and taking cover.

Am i the only one who would rather have over the shoulder/3rd person POV instead of first person?

I don’t know how you have a game that has this much fashion, expressive design and then not let your players look at their character the entire game. It doesn’t make sense.

To all of you asking - you’ll have many opportunities to see your character. It’s going to be First Person RPG, not a FPS.

People get lost in the word CYBER and forget the word PUNK at the end. CDPR are leaning into PUNK with this one, and I'm really glad. Honestly, a lot of cyberpunk is practically emo in how relentlessly DARK and MISERABLE things are at all times. Punk isn't any of those things. Punk is vivid and aggressive and chaotic and in your face. Punk is full of energy. So much cyberpunk presents these worn out, exhausted civilisations where everyone is falling apart and everything sucks.

To me this feels more truly cyberpunk than a ton of other attempts.

Cut scenes will be third party, so assume you see them there. Likely to be some camera mode to take screenshots and then you have mirrors and reflections in a cityscape.

Personally I like changing outfits, then I don't care which one I wear after actually picking it (the fun part). I don't mind games where you can't change look at all or even know how the main character looks like. I will always wear the equipment with best stats, which is why I guess mmos tend to do glamours or separate cosmetic slots.
