PraiseTheSoup, w CD Projekt Spent Roughly $125 Million Turning Cyberpunk 2077 Around Post-Launch

$125 million and the game still sucks. I beat it at launch and I can’t even tell where they spent all that money. Hotdog textures must be expensive.

PurpleTentacle, w Ubisoft Games Now Available for Standalone Purchase on Amazon Luna

They used to be the biggest publisher on Stadia as well and they couldn’t have handled Stadia’s shutdown any better than they did:

Even though Stadia refunded all purchases, Ubisoft still granted each owner of their titles on Stadia the full, non-plus-ultra-deluxe PC version of each of those game on their launcher. Automatically, for free, and without talking much about it.

Well that’s nice. Games industry is not known for treating it’s employees fairly. Or even humanely. I don’t know what the situation is in Poland, but I hope this is a positive development for them.

magikmw,

Reports of months of crunch before Cyberpunk’s release make the image pretty clear. There’s bunch of small indies and some midsized contractor companies in Poland, but not many on AAA level. Techland, CDP and People Can Fly (I think they are independent from Epic again?) are the only ones I can think of. Oh 11bit maybe.

1984, w Modern Warships — PC Release Trailer

This looks pretty bad to be honest.

Rampsquatch,

I bet you’re right, they didn’t show any gameplay in that video at all.

1984, w Why CCP haven't stopped trying to make an EVE Online shooter for 15 years
@1984@lemmy.today avatar

I remember Eve Online. Excellent screen saver with spin the ship features.

Chunk,

I just came off a bipolar induced manic phase. I hyper focused on eve and played it literally 8-12 hours a day for a few weeks.

The game is fun. It’s a slow burn and a lot of the allure comes from the setting itself. I don’t have nearly enough time to play anymore. Getting your ship into the pvp zone, finding a group, and finding a fight can easily take an hour.

I also never really got into it because it is pretty boring. Another reason is the time sink / grindfest this game is. If I want a job I will get one that pays me and not the other way around. That is ofc just my opinion and I send a glhf to everyone who enjoys playing EVE!

1984,
@1984@lemmy.today avatar

I played it while I was unemployed, it’s great for that. You can spend your entire days in there, and forget about your problems in the real world.

I am not unfamiliar with what you are describing. Games can be of help in certain situations and as long as we don’t get too lost in them and don’t neglect our real life there is nothing wrong with it.

clay_pidgin, w Why CCP haven't stopped trying to make an EVE Online shooter for 15 years

It should be fun. The Fanfest presentations went well and players are cautiously optimistic about Vanguard. Dust was popular, but not successful commercially. In part, that’s because it was a console exclusive that tied to a PC-only main game. If anyone has questions about EVE, let me know.

clay_pidgin,

o7, capsuleer.

Risk,

Regarding Vanguard - how will it tie in to EVE? Will Vanguard players be able to sell stuff to EVE players for currency?

clay_pidgin,

I haven’t heard anything about how vanguard will tie into the economy, but I wouldn’t be surprised.

There’s a new pirate faction-team-up called "the deathless"and several new pirate ships, and I would imagine that Vanguard players might get faction LP which they could sell or use.

CCP hf., doing business as CCP Games, is an Icelandic video game developer based in Reykjavík. Novator Partners and General Catalyst had previously collectively owned a majority stake in the company, and in September 2018, CCP was acquired by South Korean video game publisher Pearl Abyss for $425 million.[1] CCP Games is best known for developing Eve Online, which was released in 2003 and has since been maintained.

I didn’t know the acronyms

For anyone else who stared at the headline for a moment in confusion.

I was wondering why the Chinese Communist party would be making video games lmao

Kidplayer_666,

Same here

Chariotwheel,

They just really like EVE Online.

Maajmaaj, w Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Getting offline mode
@Maajmaaj@lemmy.ca avatar

Fuck yeah! Between this game and darktide, I’ve been playing 40k games non stop. It’s so awesome that Inquisitor is only $10 on steam

Weylandyuta,

Yeah the definitive edition sale came in clutch. I only had the base game and the tech priest on PS5 but now I have the sororitas and the mission dlcs all for a tenner on steam. Should pair nicely with the steam deck.

hoshikarakitaridia, w CD Projekt employees form a union

Omg that’s so important.

filister, w Twitter sleuths suggest a new Steam Deck is on its way, but any updates are likely to be for Valve's benefit not ours

It is about time for them to start producing some GPUs and break the monopoly of AMD and NVIDIA.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Nah, Intel is already doing that. Valve getting into graphics cards would be a colossal mistake. That’s not in their wheelhouse at all.

Chailles,
@Chailles@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, but let’s be real here, it would totally be just like Valve to make a GPU and somehow be like one of the best ones at the time and never make another one again.

Attchaster,

Yeah. Doing software is hard, doing household hardware is harder, but doing GPU-class chips? No fucking way at all.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Yup, Intel is struggling to enter the market, and they’ve been building similar chips for years. This just isn’t an area for someone like Valve to break into.

Maybe they could make a good cooler design or something, but they’re going to be using off the shelf chips, or maybe slightly altered custom chips like they did with the Steam Deck.

people_are_cute, w CD Projekt Doesn't Regret Making Cyberpunk 2077 First-Person, but Has Yet to Decide on Cyberpunk 2
@people_are_cute@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

They are RPG kings but still haven’t got the nuances of perfecting an FPS down yet.

Cyberpunk is way too noisy in its visuals and sound. Even if you love it you’ll get a headache if you play it more then a couple of hours. Had it been in third person the noise would have probably been more bearable and even a good immersion feature, but in first person it makes you giddy.

Edgelord_Of_Tomorrow, w Battlefield 2042: How Season 6 - Dark Creations is Bringing More Variety and Versatility

I literally don’t care if it’s God’s gift to video games if they haven’t removed operators yet.

pete_the_cat, (edited ) w CD Projekt Spent Roughly $125 Million Turning Cyberpunk 2077 Around Post-Launch

They did a pretty good job fixing it up… but it also took like 4-5 years. Some things I’m like “it took at least 5 years for you to think of implementing this??”

Edit: 5 years meaning it should have been added during the initial development.

100,

5 years? Mon frere it came out December of 2020.

pete_the_cat,

5 years meaning “from the start of development”. A lot of these things should have been there from the beginning.
