General Videogame Thread

[Mr. Wednesday]

Had a wee sneaky couple of hours with Cyberpunk last night. This is going to be a game you can sink hours into without really doing that much, it's totally engrossing.
Didn't really encounter any bugs as far as I could tell, certainly nothing obvious and it ran really well on my system which is reasonably high end, although I wasn't sure how much it would punish my RTX 2080 Super. First impressions are promising in terms of performance.
The map does seem like it will be pretty hideous as you rack up more quests and icons appear all over it, would hope something gets done with that.
Main issue so far was any menus auto scrolling right down to the bottom when I had my PS4 controller connected which made it pretty unplayable. Had to restart my PC with it disconnected and just go with mouse and keyboard to resolve that.

What's everyones thoughts on Control? I saw it relatively cheap on CDKeys for PC and was thinking about getting it and seeing what it's like with RTX on..

Wow sounds brilliant, really looking forward to getting my hands on a ps5 soon and this will be my first purchase.

Same here. Impossible to find a ps5 at the min unless you want ripped off.

Yeah bollocks to that. Im just gonna have to be patient and wait till next year at some point. Hopefully by Jan / feb they will have sorted the supply out.

Crowd density is CPU heavy and the old consoles have always used the awful jaguar CPUs. That were weak at launch in 2013, let alone now.

Still trying to decide whether to get the game on PC (i7 4790, GTX 1060 6GB), PS4 Pro or just a wait until I get a PS5 sometime next year. Which I assume with the full next gen patch will look much closer to the 2018 trailer.

Think Deus Ex/Fallout style gameplay, but with a GTA style world and modern AAA game cinematics.

Is it worth waiting until I get a PS5 to get this game? Or is there not much difference between the two?

Wait

The story seemed interesting, but I stopped about 3/4 of the way because other games caught my attention. In terms of graphics, it takes some rig to run it at it's best. I couldn't put ray-tracing on at 1440p at hold 60fps with an RTX 2070 super. On console it looked even worse.


I imagine the new GPUs will handle it better. If you're happy with a lower resolution it's good enough I guess.

I'm gonna be playing on GFN which IIRC is using T10-8 GPU which I believe is equivalent to 2080 Ti Super. Since they 3080's are out (?) they've probably upgraded since i last checked.
